The subordinate who was glanced at by Hou Guozhong quickly disappeared quietly.
"Since your base is so kind and difficult to refuse, we won't be polite." Wei Guozhong also stood up and said with a smile.
Originally, they had been unilaterally terminated by Haicheng from all future transactions, and on the surface, they had no shame in continuing to stay. As for Xiao Yunlong's words about inviting someone to dinner, what's more important is that he meant to give him a treat afterwards. Obviously, they don't want to keep the other party on their own territory.
However, the Chinese side has not yet received the news from the outside that a zombie wave has appeared outside the gate of Haicheng Base, and they will definitely not leave like this. So they had to shamelessly sit down to eat this meal.
The remaining Bao Chengzhi and Li Zhengye looked at each other, then at Xiao Yunlong and Zou Shihui. Without saying anything, they all got up and went out.
Xiao Yunlong and Zou Shihui didn't expect that they would actually agree to eat. They were stunned for a moment and looked at each other, with a gleam in their eyes.
They could vaguely guess what the other person was thinking.
Isn’t it just waiting for something to happen? But I don’t know what their expressions will be like when they know that that thing will never happen.
Seeing that they were unwilling to leave so quickly, Xiao Yunlong and others did not expose each other directly to save face, and even sent someone to prepare a table of delicious food and wine in the canteen. So he took these people to dinner.
At the dinner table, both parties had their own thoughts and neither spoke nor moved their chopsticks. While trying to delay time, he looked at the other party with a sneer in his heart.
"What? Are the leaders dissatisfied with the food on our table? Do you want to change the table?" Xiao Yunlong had a smile on his lips and what he said was normal. But there was a touch of contempt in his tone.
Wei Haichao glanced at him and said with a smile: "How could it be possible? It is not easy to eat so many good dishes in the apocalypse. I heard that the breeding industry in Haicheng is also very good, and you can also find ordinary pigs without mutations. We raise cattle and sheep, and the meat is very precious.”
Although he looked at the several plates of fragrant meat on the table and praised them, his hands did not move his chopsticks.
On the other hand, Li Zhengye, who was next to him, slowly picked up his chopsticks, picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in his mouth. While chewing it with relish, he nodded and praised: "Yeah, not bad. It's delicious. I still like to eat meat, haha."
After finishing the meal, he picked up the seven-percent full wine glass on the table and took a sip, then said with a happy face: "Since everyone knows how precious this table of food is at this time, how can it be wasted? Do you think so?"
"Haha, I agree with what Chief Li said!" At this time, Bao Chengzhi also laughed loudly, and then he also picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
Of course, they weren't worried about anything wrong with the food on the table, because Haicheng didn't have the need to do this.
Xiao Yunlong's eyes flashed when he looked at them, and then he moved his chopsticks along with them. Although their cooperation with Huaxia has broken down on the surface, Huaxia is not the only base present, and Haicheng has no intention of turning against the other two bases.
So everyone ate and drank thoughtfully for a while. The subordinate who Hou Guozhong had just signaled to disappear came back soon. Regardless of the fact that the people dining in this private room were all leaders of various bases, he walked in quietly, walked quickly behind Hou Guozhong, bent down and said something unknown in his ear.
Hou Guozhong's expression changed slightly, but he quickly covered it up. But everyone else was paying attention to him secretly and didn't miss this.
The corners of Xiao Yunlong's mouth on the Haicheng side curled up meaningfully, while on the Huaxia side, Wei Haichao had a bad premonition in his heart after seeing Hou Guozhong's expression.
Li Zhengye and Bao Chengzhi, on the other hand, did not change their expressions, but their eyes darkened.
What Hou Guozhong heard from his men was: There was no movement outside the gate.
This means that the tide of corpses that was supposed to be drawn over at this time was not drawn over. Then it might be that the manpower outside encountered an accident, or encountered some situation that prevented the corpse tide from being brought over in time.
If the other party doesn't attract the tide of corpses, there will be no way to distract Xiao Yunlong and others' attention. Then it would be impossible for them to take advantage of the chaos and take away those soil researchers.
At this time, Xiao Licheng also walked in from outside the door and came to Xiao Yunlong's side. He did not speak in a low voice like Hou Guozhong's men, but said unhurriedly in a voice heard by everyone present: "Chief, there was a disappearance just now from the west gate. There are more than a dozen people not far outside the safe zone. A group of zombies moved strangely. I don’t know why those zombie groups gathered together, but fortunately they are not close to the safe zone."
Xiao Yunlong cooperated with a surprised expression, turned to look at him and asked: "The zombies are moving? Are they gathering?"
Xiao Licheng nodded: "Originally, these dozen groups of zombies seemed to have a tendency to merge together, almost forming a small tide of zombies, but I don't know why they didn't merge. At first, they were approaching the safe zone. But then it stopped again for unknown reasons.”
Xiao Yunlong asked: "What about now?"
Xiao Licheng said: "Now the zombie groups have stopped moving. They are not gathering together and there is no other movement. They all seem to be quiet."
Xiao Yunlong nodded and glanced at Zou Shihui: "That's it, then you can continue to keep an eye on it. Pass the situation to the sentient beings base to our leader Wu, he will have a way to deal with these zombies."
Zou Shihui nodded. He had never made a sound before he said in a low voice, "It's not a big deal. It shouldn't have much impact."
However, he looked at the other people and said, "But if Director Wei and others want to take the west gate, they may have to take a detour. Otherwise, they should take the north gate."
Because these people all come in through the west gate, and they also go through the west gate when they leave.
At this time, Wei Haichao and Hou Guozhong's faces were already a little ugly after hearing the news, but they held back and covered it up.
Wei Haichao gritted his teeth secretly and said, "It doesn't matter, we can go through the north gate."
They didn't expect that the outside plan was shattered. Moreover, the other party said it so loudly, obviously deliberately letting them hear it, and the other party had already noticed it.
But they couldn't reveal any flaws to let the other party get a handle, let alone admit that they arranged and planned the incident.
So now Wei Haichao and Hou Guozhong can only grit their teeth and swallow it in their stomachs. They pretend to be concerned and ask: "Since there is a possibility of a small wave of corpses forming, this matter is more serious. You should be careful. It would be better to deal with it sooner.”
Xiao Yunlong smiled and said: "Oh, it doesn't matter. We have many ways to deal with zombies now. You don't need to worry."
Wei Haichao responded with a non-smiling smile: "That's good."
Li Zhengye and Bao Chengzhi's expressions were changing, and their eyes flickered, not knowing what they were thinking.
