C186 Out of Office
"Alright, alright, stop loving me." Wang Yi interrupted the two men who were talking to each other.
"Zhang Fei, Yang Bing, Lee Weiping, come here."
Zhang Fei didn't dare to fight with Chen Hui anymore after hearing Wang Yi's words. He quickly put Chen Hui down and walked up to Wang Yi.
The others also knew that Wang Yi wanted to discuss something, so they consciously moved to the side and looked around vigilantly.
"Bro Yi, what should we do now? Should we chase that mutated snake?"
Yang Bing turned his head quickly. Seeing Wang Yi's silence, he guessed Wang Yi's intention.
"Yes, we have to get rid of this snake. Although it ran away, it knew that there was food here and it will come back to attack again."
Wang Yi thought about it again and again and decided to finish off the mutated snake. The sudden appearance of the mutated snake must have detected the thick smell of blood in the prison.
"Bro Yi, is it possible that the mutated snake has already run far away and won't return?"
Before, Wang Yi had said that Mutated Beast and zombies were different. Mutated Beast had their own thoughts when encountering danger, and they wouldn't act like zombies, even if there was only a mouth left, it would still attack crazily, while Mutated Beast were smarter. If they felt that there was a danger to their lives, they would rely on animal instinct to avoid it.
Wang Yi shook his head and rejected Zhang Fei's idea.
"That snake is as thick as a bucket and nearly 20 meters long. Even though Yang Ze used the grenade to blast it away, it shouldn't have suffered much damage."
Wang Yi pointed at a few drops of blood on the vegetable ground.
"Looking at the amount of blood, I estimate that the mutated snake was scared away!"
"If the mutated snake were to make a comeback, we would be in a much more passive position."
Everyone nodded when they heard this. After all, no one knew how much damage the snake had suffered or if it was afraid. If it was as Wang Yi said, the snake was only scared and didn't have any real damage, so it was very likely to still be around.
Half of the reason why Wang Yi wanted to kill the mutated snake was because of Triangular Eye.
He had killed nine of Triangular Eye's men last night. Although Wang Yi felt that Triangular Eye didn't have the guts to take revenge on him, there was still a mutated snake waiting for an opportunity to take action outside. Wang Yi couldn't guarantee that Triangular Eye wouldn't have any thoughts if he wasn't paying attention.
According to Wang Yi's character, he would only choose to kill thieves, but not to guard against thieves. Since he did not have the intention to deal with Triangular Eye at the moment, then this mutated snake must be killed. It could remind the team that they were still in the apocalypse and not be confused by the peace in front of them.
Thinking of this, Wang Yi said to Zhang Fei and the others.
"Zhang Fei, Lee Hu, Yang Ze, the three of you stay behind. Prepare some food and weapons, we will go out to hunt down the mutated snakes later."
"Understood, Bro Yi!"
Especially Lee Hu, who sounded the loudest and most excited because Wang Yi didn't let Lee Hu participate in any missions during this period of time. Whether it was killing zombies or killing people, it was enough to make Lee Hu, a militant, choke.
Wang Yi then shifted his gaze to Yang Bing.
"Yang Bing, you, Lin Feng, Zhou Tie, and Lee Weiping stay behind. Bring them back and be wary of Triangular Eye. When I'm not here, if anything happens, you guys can discuss it. If there are any differences, you will be in charge."
Wang Yi's words caused Yang Bing to be slightly stunned.
Yang Bing was clear about the meaning of being the leader. During the time Wang Yi wasn't in the team, Yang Bing would be in charge of important affairs in the team. Once he disagreed with Lin Feng and the others, Yang Bing's opinion would be the most important.
"Bro Yi, I …"
Yang Bing wanted to decline, but he was interrupted by Wang Yi.
"It's settled then. You don't have to worry. If this operation goes well, we'll be back in the evening."
In Wang Yi's experience, the mutated snake should still be around the prison. Even if there was an accident, it was only in the morning and it was already night time.2
Not long after, Wang Yi could only leave the team for a few hours at most. However, Wang Yi knew very well that in this apocalyptic world, every minute and every second could lead to a crisis.
Everyone had different thoughts in their heads. If a team could not unify their thoughts when danger came, then it would be equivalent to bringing about their own destruction. Even if it was only for a few hours, a temporary leader was indispensable.
Yang Bing, on the other hand, was the most suitable candidate in Wang Yi's heart. He had a lively mind and liked to look at people and think about things from many aspects. He was stronger than anyone in the team.
Wang Yi training Yang Bing into a right-hand man, so usually did not infuse Yang Bing with the thought of the apocalypse.
As for what was the thought of the apocalypse, it was simple. It was cruel to the enemy and gentle to one's own heart.
Wu Shuang Fu looked at Yang Bing with a profound look. Yang Bing immediately changed his words after being stared at by Wang Yi. Even if it was just a few short hours, it was enough for Yang Bing to take it seriously.
"Don't worry, Bro Yi. We will wait for your return safely."
Wang Yi went up and patted Yang Bing's thick shoulder. One was trust, and the other was expectation.
Lee Mei was worried when she heard Wang Yi say that he was leaving again. However, she knew that she couldn't change Wang Yi's mind. Wang Yi didn't want to leave, but the words that came out of her mouth became exhortation.
"Bro Yi, you have to be careful when you go out. Don't be careless. I … will wait here for you."
Wang Yi put his hand on Lee Mei's delicate face and chuckled.
"A few hours at most. Why does it feel like a farewell to death to you?"
Lee Mei's expression changed slightly as she frowned. She grabbed Wang Yi's hand that was on her face and pretended to be angry as she said that.
"Pah pah pah! What nonsense are you talking about? What life and death thing? You're not allowed to say such words."
Wang Yi laughed heartily when he heard that. He took out his hand and pinched Lee Meijun's nose lightly. Then, he lowered his head and whispered into Lee Mei's ear.
"You owe me one more this morning, so you have to pay me back double this evening."
With that, Wang Yi ignored Lee Mei's blushing face and took the lead to walk out of the electric net.
Lee Hu and Yang Ze also followed in a hurry. Just now, they had already prepared the weapons and food when Wang Yi instructed Yang Bing.
Zhang Fei said something to Chen Hui in a low voice. Under Chen Hui's reluctant gaze, he waved his hand and quickly followed the trio that walked out of the electric net.
"Sister Mei, let's go back. Bro Yi and the others should be back tonight."
