Chapter 279: Chapter 279: Ye Rongxin Holds a Grudge
Su Jin shook her head. It seed they were not the only ones affected; perhaps the last ti they encountered these people, it wasn’t their first ti doing such things either.
Ye Rongxin also turned around, looking interestedly at the dispute on the other side, then spoke a few words to the person beside him before leaving.
The Security team mbers behind him quickly ran forward to diate the situation, but since these matters were inherently hard to clarify, they could only let it go for now.
Watching the smug Baili Divine Team, Su Jin and her group felt sowhat disappointed. However, they all knew that in the tis of the Apocalypse, where there was no rule of law, encountering such situations ant either getting justice through one’s own formidable strength or simply letting it be…
Inside the base administrative building, Liang Jiuhui passed by Ye Rongxin’s office and peeked inside, only to find the door was open.
“How co you have ti to be in the office today?”
...
Liang Jiuhui leaned against the doorfra and asked. Ye Rongxin generally did not co to the administrative building’s office; he was either patrolling with the Security team or staying in the base’s prison.
“Officer Liang, I ca to check so information,”
Ye Rongxin, seeing it was Liang Jiuhui, quickly stood up and responded.
“What, have you added a new na to your little book? Who has upset you this ti?”
Liang Jiuhui smiled. He had noticed Ye Rongxin flipping through the cowhide book and seed to be pondering sothing when he had entered.
Indeed, Ye Rongxin was a person who held grudges.
Only a few close to Liang Jiuhui knew this; the cowhide book he always carried was not for taking notes but for keeping a list of his enemies. Although Ye Rongxin might not show much at the mont, he would surely return the favor several tis over later on.
Liang Jiuhui had known Ye Rongxin for a long ti, so he understood him quite well. He did not see this behavior as deceitful; Ye Rongxin was simply too clear about love and hate. He would repay those who treated him well generously, and as for those who angered him, it depended on the extent.
It was for this reason that Liang Jiuhui had appointed him as the captain of the Security team, believing that Ye Rongxin was best suited for this position in the Apocalypse.
In recent days, Ye Rongxin’s effectiveness had indeed proven that his decision was correct—the base had beco well-organized under the leadership of the Security team, significantly easing his burden as the Base Leader.
Today, Liang Jiuhui wondered who the unlucky soul targeted by him was as he glanced at his watch.
Hmm, according to his speed, he should probably find out by evening.
Indeed, that afternoon, a disciplinary notice issued by the Security team was posted at the mission center.
The Baili Divine Team ignored the base team formation rules. Utilizing a deceased teammate’s points card to register the team with fewer than eight mbers, the base now compulsorily disbanded their team. Furthermore, after verification from several teams, the Baili Divine Team had intentionally lured zombies towards other teams while completing missions outside the base, causing severe casualties and even attempting to snatch Crystal Cores when the teams were unprepared—all of which led to the perpetual disqualification of several team mbers from forming teams.
Below, signatures from teams willing to testify were even collected.
Lin Xiuyuan looked at this disciplinary notice and couldn’t help but want to applaud the Security team. The notice also posted photos and nas of the Baili Divine Team mbers at the bottom. He had just been wandering aimlessly in Guo Yang’s shop that afternoon when he heard the news, so he hurried over to the mission center to watch the excitent. Indeed, the trip wasn’t in vain.
The news erupted within the base like a pot boiling over.
How could there be such despicable people? Luring zombies to other teams, letting them fight, and then seizing Crystal Cores when their Special Abilities were depleted?
“My goodness, a team like this deserves to be disbanded.”
The Security Team did a great job!
After seeing the disciplinary notice, Liang Jiuhui finally understood that Ye Rongxin had co to the office today to check the team’s records. Yet, it was truly impressive how he managed to collect those witnesses’ signatures within just a few hours. Moreover, he thoroughly agreed with Ye Rongxin’s approach—it was neither extre nor provocative, and it subtly promoted the Security Team.
It seed that even in the Apocalypse, everyone loved to see a representative of justice. At that thought, Liang Jiuhui couldn’t help but laugh again.
A vindictive Ye Rongxin? A representative of justice?
Sheng Jing, standing behind and watching Liang Jiuhui rocking back and forth in laughter in his office chair, couldn’t help but silently criticize. Did he appear to be a serious Base Leader, but was actually foolish behind closed doors?
Ever since Sheng Jing discovered her ntal Elent Ability, she had followed Liang Jiuhui’s request to stay by his side, nominally as the secretary to the Base Leader. Aside from Su Jin’s family, only a few others like Liang Jiuhui knew about her ntal Elent Ability.
Originally, Liang Jiuhui had planned to place Sheng Jing beside Liang Wei, especially after the Invisibility Ability User incident. However, Liang Wei had expressed strong disagreent.
“I’m ho every day researching farming and agriculture; if you station soone to watch over daily, I can’t focus on my research!” Liang Wei refused.
“Dad, you’re farming? Do you even know how?”
Liang Jiuqing didn’t hesitate to expose Liang Wei’s novices. The Liang Family had been involved in politics for generations, and she had never heard of Liang Wei farming before.
“I’m still researching, changing careers takes ti,” Liang Wei explained.
Although he had retired from the active workforce, he still wanted to contribute to the base, so he had started researching agriculture at ho and would occasionally sneak out to visit the base’s farm, all without Liang Jiuhui’s knowledge.
“Alright, if you insist, I won’t force you. Just stay ho and don’t run around, alright, Dad…”
Liang Jiuhui spoke warmly, fully aware of Liang Wei’s secret outings. He had arranged people in secret to protect Liang Wei, who was completely oblivious to this fact.
“What, run around? I stay indoors all day, not even stepping foot outside the second door,”
As Liang Wei picked up the shovel from the ground and headed towards the yard, he couldn’t dare to et his son’s gaze.
“Well, that’s good to hear,” laughed Liang Jiuhui.
So, from then on, Sheng Jing assud the role of the Base Leader’s secretary.
After a few days of working together, she found Liang Jiuhui quite easy-going, even very relaxed to work with.
She planned to fulfill her duties diligently as his secretary—after all, she did receive a salary, and Liang Jiuhui could be considered her lifesaver. Although the scars on her face had fully healed, since the chief culprit had still not been caught, she habitually wore a veil.
The administrative staff knew that Liang Jiuhui had a mysterious new female secretary who never showed her face, silently following the Base Leader all day. So had speculated that she might be Liang Jiuhui’s woman, but after seeing their professional interaction and witnessing Sheng Jing’s work capabilities, that guess was seldom ntioned again.
After all, the two could work for half a day without speaking a word to each other, and Sheng Jing’s remarkable work performance and systematic reports to Liang Jiuhui made it clear that such a strong woman couldn’t possibly be the kind they fantasized in their minds.
