Chapter 100: Busy Farming in the Last Days

These people might be fugitives. Ji Cha knew he was alone, and it was reckless to come over. It was even more unwise to say something provocative at this moment. He pursed his lips and looked helpless and unwilling, angrily took the thing from Brother Qiang’s hand, and turned his head towards the door.

However, the iron door was still closed, and there was no intention of opening it.

“What are you trying to do?” He turned his head and frowned at Brother Qiang.

Brother Qiang walked up with a smile: “I just hope that Director Ji can take care of us. Everyone is trying to survive, and it’s not easy for anyone. You have a family, which is good. Our brothers are all alone, and it’s a bit pitiful, isn’t it? As the saying goes, leave a way out in everything, we’ll meet again in the future.”

It was obvious that there was a hidden threat in his words. Ji Cha tightened his teeth. He didn’t think that with Liang Jincheng’s means, Brother Qiang would threaten his grandmother and them. However, now, for his own safety, Ji Cha knew that he couldn’t act impulsively.

He pretended to be touched by Brother Qiang’s words, and his frown deepened: “As long as you stay away from my family, everything will be fine.”

Brother Qiang saw that he had taken the bait and his expression improved: “Of course, as long as Director Ji is easy to talk to, why should we make things difficult for you?”

He took a step back after speaking. Ji Cha slowly breathed a sigh of relief and turned to walk towards the door again. However, there was a twist and turn, and halfway through, Cheng Yaojin appeared.

“Brother Qiang, are you just going to let him go? What if this guy changes his mind halfway and decides to report us to the authorities?”

There were always those who were ruthless and wanted to eradicate the roots and do things decisively.

Ji Cha’s hand holding the plastic bag was already slightly sweaty. If these people really decided to be tough, he had no absolute confidence that he could safely walk out of here.

Although Brother Qiang was already sure that Ji Cha would consider his family, when someone else mentioned it, another idea that had been circling in his head surfaced again.

Ji Cha came alone, and even the information card he used wasn’t his own, so there was no absolute evidence to prove that he had been there. Although the security in the base was good, it didn’t mean that it was completely safe. Wherever there are people, there are loopholes. If they let Ji Cha go, there was still a high possibility that he would report back, which was almost as risky as taking the risk and doing nothing, and the latter was even cleaner.

Ji Cha could clearly see the hesitation and loosening in Brother Qiang’s expression. He spoke in a deep voice, “As long as you let me go back safely, it will be good for everyone. I will pretend that I have never been here today.”

The person who interrupted earlier continued to instigate Brother Qiang, “Brother Qiang, we don’t have a security cameras in the base. Who knows if he has been here or not? This guy broke in alone, he should know that it’s not easy to come and go here. I suggest we just kill him and throw him outside the wall. He will be eaten by zombies in no time, and there will be no evidence. What will happen then?”

Brother Qiang wasn’t that reckless, but after hearing this, he also felt that he couldn’t make a decision and couldn’t let Ji Cha go for the time being.

“I hope Director Ji doesn’t have any plan for this afternoon. How about staying here for a while and discussing when to send you back?”

Brother Qiang approached Ji Cha and put his arm around his shoulder, coercing and cajoling him into a small room inside.

While walking, Ji Cha observed the environment again. This building was not small, and it was estimated to be at least 500 square meters based on its new and old condition. Judging from the design, most of the internal partitions were made after the apocalypse. It was obviously carefully designed, not only like a maze, but also had multiple exits.

If they wanted to hide someone, regular soldiers from the army would never be able to find them.

Ji Cha was brought to a room that was similar in size and layout to the one upstairs. There were no windows, only a mattress on the floor, and the light switch was controlled by someone outside. However, there was a latch on the inside of the door of this room. As soon as Ji Cha was pushed into the room, it was pitch black. The door of the small room was locked from the outside, cutting off Ji Cha’s freedom.

But Ji Cha wasn’t too afraid. They wouldn’t dare to harm him for the time being, and delaying things would be more advantageous for him. Liang Jincheng couldn’t find him in the apartment building, so he must have gone back to the factory. If he couldn’t find him in either place, he would definitely start looking outside. Ji Cha used a valid card, which was also one of the clues. It wouldn’t be difficult to find him on this side.

“Captain Liang, we weren’t expecting you. Why did you come over?”

Liang Jincheng went straight to the point, “Is Ji Cha here?”

Brother Qiang, who had already prepared a strategy, pretended to be unaware and asked, “Are you talking about Director Ji?” He turned to his subordinate and asked, “Have you seen Director Ji?”

“We don’t know Director Ji. There were only a few customers this afternoon, and I remember he wasn’t here,” the person replied while pretending to check the credit card records behind the counter.

Qin Shuang smiled and suddenly said to Brother Qiang, “Take me to find Ji Cha.”

Upon hearing this, Brother Qiang’s previously cheerful expression immediately disappeared, and his eyes stared blankly for a moment before turning around and saying, “Follow me.”

His subordinates were scared by his sudden change, “Brother Qiang?”

Qin Shuang didn’t even bother with the others, and Liang Jincheng cared even less about these small fries. They followed Brother Qiang up to the door where Ji Cha was being held.

But at this point, the door was already hidden behind a cabinet. It would be unlikely for anyone passing by to take a second glance at it.

Brother Qiang turned to his subordinate and ordered, “Move the things aside.”

The subordinate was hesitant, “Brother Qiang?”

But Brother Qiang simply did it himself. However, the cabinet was quite heavy, and he struggled to move it. Liang Jincheng grew impatient and casually pushed it aside with a flick of his hand, causing the cabinet to collapse.

The rest was done smoothly: opening the door and turning on the lights. However, they didn’t see Ji Cha at first, and instead found a mattress.

“Cha Cha?” Liang Jincheng didn’t touch the mattress immediately, afraid that Ji Cha might be behind it, and he might accidentally hurt him with too much force.

After hearing Liang Jincheng’s voice, Ji Cha immediately poked his head out from behind the mattress and gave Liang Jincheng a shy smile, “You’re here.”

He rushed over recklessly, risking his life, which would definitely not please Liang Jincheng.

As expected, Liang Jincheng’s expression was as bad as Ji Cha had expected.

At this point, Brother Qiang had just recovered from being confused by Qin Shuang, but it was too late, and Liang Jincheng was already checking Ji Cha up and down by holding onto his arm.

“Here,” Ji Cha explained to Liang Jincheng, “there are activities of forcing people into prostitution and organizing sexual activities here!”

After finishing the check, Liang Jincheng confirmed that Ji Cha was not injured and his face looked much better, but he didn’t mean to forgive Ji Cha right away.

“Qin Shuang,” he turned his head and called her, “you let the people below handle it.”

Qin Shuang nodded and followed them, smiling at Ji Cha, “Cha Cha.”

“Hello,” Ji Cha responded while being half embraced and pulled away by Liang Jincheng. His face was embarrassed and blushing, and calling him by such a name only made him blush even more.

Although Liang Jincheng was still angry, he still treated his own people well. He looked at Qin Shuang and gave her a nod to reassure everything would be ok.
