Zombie Sister Strategy

“Don’t worry! They just want us to join the army, and not turn into zombies. They won’t put the virus on the papers!” Sun Lunan noticed Mo Qiqi’s movement and smiled as he said.

Dou Yunfan glanced at the door and sighed, then dropped his head and said, “I think we won’t be able to leave until we sign that agreement. This is indeed a big secret for the base.”

Sun Lunan walked to Mo Qiqi’s side and picked up the two agreements. While reading them, he said, “You should say that thankfully, as they aren’t planning on killing us to keep the secret. Instead, they only want us to join the army of the base. That’s merciful. If it happened in another base, we might have been killed out there already. After all, killing us is the best way to keep us silent.”

There were two agreements to be signed: one was the confidential agreement, and the other was the application agreement to join the army. Under the application agreement, their expected positions and pay grades were listed. Of course, they needed to be trained before officially joining the army.

“Are we signing these?” Mo Qiqi looked at him and asked.

“Or? Do you want to stay in this room forever?” Sun Lunan looked at her and said.

Mo Qiqi immediately shook her head.

“So, we have to sign these.” While speaking, Sun Lunan pulled over a chair and sat down, then picked up the pen and signed his full name on the two agreements. As the team leader had signed it, both Mo Qiqi and Dou Yunfan did the same.

After signing the agreements, the three of them kept a copy of each agreement for themselves, then brought the rest of the copies to the door and opened it.

With a subtle and complicated look in his eyes, Sun Lunan faced the two zombies on both sides of the door, who were in military suits. The two zombies both possessed level-four superpowers. They stood straight, wearing clean uniforms and army caps. They did look like real soldiers, even though their faces looked a little scary.

Sun Lunan had never spent such a peaceful moment together with any zombie before. He had confirmed that those zombies really wouldn’t attack him, and that they were even on the same side as him. That was something new; he was interested, yet stayed vigilant.

He looked around, then raised the signed agreements in his hands and said, “We’ve signed these. Can we leave now?”

One of the two zombie soldiers took over the agreements from his hand without reading them. Instead, he pointed a hand toward the outside and then walked out.

Sun Lunan immediately turned back to the other two and said, “We’re free to go.”

The three of them followed the zombie soldier out of the door and soon walked up to an iron door. On the other side of the door was a guardhouse.

At that moment, Xie Dong was sitting in the guardhouse with his eyes on the screens of the surveillance cameras. There was no expression on his face. Under the brim of his cap, his eyes glowed with a dim light. Hearing the footsteps coming from the other side of the door, he stood up and walked out.

Xie Dong stood straight at the door, his legs slightly parted and hands held behind his back, looking at the three people with a fierce vibe.

He first took over the agreements from the zombie soldier’s hand and checked the signatures of the three people, then said, “Welcome to the All Beings Base Army. I am Xie Dong, the head coach of the reserve force from Base Number Two.”

The reserve force that he mentioned was actually the zombie army.

Sun Lunan blinked as he stepped up to Xie Dong, reaching out a hand, “Good to see you, I’m Sun Lunan!”

Dou Yunfan was the second to start talking. “I think you knew our names long ago. But still, let me introduce myself. I’m Dou Yunfan!”

“Mo Qiqi,” Mo Qiqi coldly let out her own name.

Xie Dong shook Sun Lunan’s hand, then smilingly nodded at Dou Yunfan.

Sun Lunan looked around and then asked, “Are these the reserve force from Base Number Two that you talked about? Are they all…”

He didn’t say the word ‘zombie’ out loud, but Xie Dong understood his meaning. He nodded, then took off his hat and said, “In fact, I am a zombie too.”

He often showed up in the base, yet none of the others found anything wrong about him. He had a human face after all, and his eyes weren’t purely black. The other zombies were able to sense his zombie vibe, but no human had found out about his zombie nature yet.

After he took off his hat, the white parts in his eyes suddenly turned black.

All the three were stunned, looking at him with disbelief.

Xie Dong closed his eyes for a second to let his eyes turn back normal, then said, “Don’t worry! You’ll be with the force from Base Number One under the command of Deputy Chief Yuan, and not with us. You can leave now. Tomorrow, someone will take you to the army.”

Sun Lunan and Dou Yunfan made eye-contact with each other, then both turned to give Mo Qiqi a glance. After that, they nodded at Xie Dong, who slightly turned his body and pointed outside.

A vehicle drove the three of them back to Base Number One after they left that place. Meanwhile, Xie Dong returned to his office and saw Yan Xiao, Six, Jingyan, and some of the others sitting on the couch in his office, each holding a few agreements.

“How are things going with Qin Yu?” Xie Dong sat down behind his desk and looked at Yan Xiao as he asked.

Yan Xiao stood up and walked up to his desk, putting the signed agreements on his desk before writing on her notebook, ‘Her attitude is turning for the better. I gave her three days to think. I think she’ll join the army.’

Xie Dong nodded, then picked up those agreements and browsed through them. After collecting all the signed agreements, he started writing the post-battle report.

The next day, when Lin Qiao was feeding Teng in her office, Xie Dong brought the report to her.

“Come in and put the report on my desk.” Sensing his vibe coming near, Lin Qiao said to him without even raising her head.

“Yes, ma’am!”

…

In Sea City Base, Wu Chengyue, Xiao Yunlong, and Zou Shihui had been discussing how to prepare themselves for Huaxia Base’s possible moves. Recently, Huaxia Base had been strangely quiet, which made Wu Chengyue and his people think that they were up to something big.

“Why is Huaxia Base staying so peaceful? What on earth does Si Kongchen want? Is he going to pretend that nothing happened?” Xiao Yunlong furrowed his eyebrows. He couldn’t figure out what Si Kongchen wanted.

“Perhaps he’s up to something bigger, and he can’t let this small conflict ruin his big plan. We don’t know about his real purpose yet. Recently, many of our information sources in Huaxia Base have broken. Si Kongchen has been secretly cleaning out spies,” Wu Chengyue was wearing his everyday faint smile, yet his eyes weren’t narrowed.

“That’s bad for us, isn’t it?” said Xiao Yunlong.

Wu Chengyue replied, “I think he will make sure no information leaks before starting to take actions.”

“I think so too,” Zou Shihui nodded.
