Lord of Illusions City

Chapter 158 The Righteous Chief

“Wu team! It’s so good to see you.”

“Haha! Isn’t this Team Wang? Alas, seeing you guys in this world gives me confidence!”

“Team Qi! Long time no see…”

“Team Zhang…”

Because the police officers were standing quite far apart, and after the convoy stopped, the survivors naturally wanted to see what was happening ahead. Although Duan Lei had said long ago that after getting into the car, no one was allowed to leave their vehicle without orders, some survivors still left their vehicles and walked forward after seeing the police officers ahead.

“Oh! Director Liu! Hello! I’m Liu Kaixuan from Fengrao Real Estate, we’re practically family from five hundred years ago!”

A somewhat portly middle-aged man arrived last. Unlike the others who greeted the police officers, he directly extended his hand to Liu Hengjin, smiling brightly.

“Hello! President Liu!”

Liu Hengjin also returned a kind smile. To realize his plan, he naturally had to find a supporter among these survivors, so he wouldn't offend anyone now. The arrogance and barbarity he displayed before had long disappeared without a trace!

“President Liu! May I ask, how many leaders do you have in your team? And who are they?”

After exchanging greetings, Liu Hengjin went straight to the point without wasting any time!

“Hey! See that woman? She’s one of them!”

Liu Kaixuan pointed at Duan Xue in the armored vehicle, shivering involuntarily at the same time.

Liu Kaixuan came to the front, in fact, intending to persuade these police officers to drive away Li Chenzhou’s team and let the police officers lead this convoy. The main reason was Duan Xue.

Most of the people in the convoy had seen Duan Xue’s outburst earlier. After all, she was so big, and the commotion was not small, so it was impossible not to attract attention.

Liu Kaixuan saw Duan Xue smash Li Chenzhou away with his own eyes, and then use an SUV to smash Gray Bear and Fatty. In his opinion, if she could be so ruthless to her own team members, let alone them.

If a base were to be established in the future, and this woman did something like that in the base, who could bear it? Therefore, for Liu Kaixuan, Duan Xue was like a ticking time bomb.

In addition, Liu Kaixuan knew Liu Hengjin, although they weren't very familiar, knowing him was better than not knowing him at all. If Liu Hengjin and the others took over the management of this team, Liu Kaixuan would of course get some benefits, wouldn't he?

Therefore, Liu Kaixuan was now very active. Although he had entered the apocalypse, his concept had not really changed. At least, in his opinion, no matter how powerful Li Chenzhou and the others were, and no matter how daring they were to kill, would they dare to kill police officers? Were they courting death?

So, after introducing Duan Xue, Liu Kaixuan said with a contemptuous tone:

“Besides this woman, there is also a young man in his late teens in the middle of the team! He is this woman’s younger brother. At the end of the team, there is also a guy named Gray Bear. That guy is quite powerful and has an assault rifle!

In addition, there is a young man around twenty years old who took a big fatty from this mall to scout the way ahead!”

“That’s all?”

Liu Hengjin asked with some surprise.

“Yes! That’s all. Oh, right, there is also a girl of about ten years old in this armored vehicle, and there is no one else!”

Liu Kaixuan nodded affirmatively, then looked at Liu Hengjin and smiled:

“Director Liu, it’s not that I think they are bad, after all, they have led us for a while, but… they are too young. Among them, the oldest is the Gray Bear at the end, who is only twenty-five or six years old.

Tell me, can such an age lead a team of hundreds of people? They have no experience at all! So I think… in this sudden changing world, Director Liu, you should stand up!

Although leading a team is very stressful, and you have to protect everyone’s safety and be responsible for everyone’s food, drink, and shelter, but Director Liu, don’t you still have so many subordinates? And I can also assist you, look…”

Liu Kaixuan’s words were exactly what Liu Hengjin wanted, especially when Liu Kaixuan deliberately raised his voice when he said these words, so that many people around could hear him.

And those survivors also came with this idea, otherwise, how could they risk violating Duan Lei’s order to get out of the car and come here?

“Yes, yes! Director Liu, you are originally a high-ranking official of the country. At this time, you should lead us. We all believe in you!”

“That’s right! If we can’t even trust the police, who else can we trust? Our guardian should have been them, not some bandits who are proud of themselves and arrogant when they have some ability, and even kill people wantonly!”

“Yes, yes! Director Liu, please do us a favor and lead us! We are willing to listen to you.”

“I agree too! Let Director Liu lead the team!”

“……”

After Liu Kaixuan took the lead, the surrounding survivors immediately began to agree. Some of the survivors were still apprehensive, and from time to time secretly glanced at Duan Xue in the armored vehicle, but found that she had no reaction, just watching them quietly, so their concerns gradually disappeared, and their voices began to grow louder.

Before he even said anything, these survivors had already begun to ask him to take over this team, which surprised Liu Hengjin himself, but this was of course a good thing for him.

“Everyone!”

Liu Hengjin raised his hand and pressed down towards the survivors. After everyone quieted down, he said with a righteous face:

“Actually, I just saw that your team was going to pass by here, and I was afraid that something might happen to you, so I brought all the police officers to provide you with protection!

After all, there are zombies everywhere in the city now, which is not safe. And I also thought about going to the big supermarket to put down all the iron gates, and then seal all the entrances and exits, completely closing it off, and then rescuing the trapped people around!

As police officers, we are obliged to protect the people. We will definitely kill all the zombies and rescue all the trapped people. As for what you said, asking me to lead your team…

Alas! Although I don’t have this idea, and this burden is indeed very heavy, I am a police officer after all, no matter how difficult it is, I cannot escape, after all, our existence is to protect the people, I have a responsibility!

So, I promise you, and I also promise you that as long as we are here, we will definitely guarantee your safety, so that everyone has food, water, and safe shelters, and we will get through this difficult time together!”

"Good!"

"Well said, worthy of Director Liu!"

"That's right! He's the director! What a big official! He has the final say in our area!"

“……”

“I say, if you want to hold elections or meetings, can you find another place? That director, is your way of protecting the people to block the road that people want to escape?”

Just as those survivors were praising Liu Hengjin, a voice suddenly came, it was Duan Lei who had arrived…
