Chapter 24: WuYi enters Fengcheng

Nie Xiao and his men killed zombies all the way to Lin Mengfei’s house.

Although Wu Wenqi often leaves home for ten days to half a month during missions, he is still very concerned about his sister’s daily life and tries to get to know her circle of friends.

Wu Wenqi made a thorough investigation on her best friend Ling Mengfei in particular.

Lin Mengfei’s family background is very ordinary. Her entire family lives in an average community in Fengcheng District. Both her father and mother worked 9 to 5 in a company. She also has a younger brother who is in elementary school.

Relying on Wu Wenqi’s memory, Nie Xiao and the others found the community where Lin Mengfei’s house was located without much trouble. However, upon seeing the mob of zombies around, even Wu Wenqi didn’t have much hope.

As expected, all the buildings were emptied and vacant.

At that point, their trail was cut short and they had no clue as to where Wu Wenyu could be.

Wu Wenqi immediately tried to suppress the reddening of his eyes. His fists rained punches on the wall as his whole body appeared mournful.

The air sunk into silence in a split second. Only the disgusting sounds coming from the zombies outside the door could be heard, unpleasant and hateful.

It was hard for everyone to imagine how an unarmed and defenseless little girl could survive smoothly and safely in this dangerous apocalypse.

Xiao Yan saw Wu Wenqi’s appearance but she didn’t know how to comfort him. Her eyes suddenly turned red, and couldn’t help but start blaming herself.

“It would’ve been better if I didn’t take that mission and showed it to you…”

“Jie!”

Ning Feng couldn’t help but shout loudly when he heard these absurd words, stopping Xiao Yan from continuing to speak.

“This isn’t your fault!”

Ning Feng took Xiao Yan’s hand, then turned to look at Wu Wenqi. Quite anxiously he said, “Wu Wenqi, you have to say something, won’t you!?”

This time, having heard the shout, Wu Wenqi wiped his red eyes and regained his spirits. He walked over to pat Xiao Yan’s head. His tone was both gentle and firm, “Yes, it’s not your fault. Don’t think too much.”

Xiao Yan looked up at the man’s resolute face and the tears in her eyes suddenly fell.

Nie Xiao looked at his sorrowful teammates. He became silent but he couldn’t help but speak after a while, saying the same words he had said more than once.

“It will be fine.”

Hearing those four words was incomparably effective as it caused Wu Wenqi and Xiao Yan to stare at each other for a moment before their eyes suddenly sparked with determination and hope.

Ning Feng who was beside them also nodded like a chick pecking rice, and quickly echoed, “Right, right. The boss said that it’ll be fine, so it will surely be fine!”

With that said, Duan Wenyu, who was standing silently in the corner, suddenly discovered something. He quickly stepped forward, picked up a desk calendar on Lin Mengfei’s table, and pointed to the memo on it.

“Xiao Yu should be in Yuncheng.”

Everyone took a closer look and saw a small line written in the blank space under a date——“Feifei will take Xiaoyu to play in Yuncheng, plane at 8 o’clock.”
