Cai Zhi and Old Ma exchanged a glance and laughed, feigning a discussion about the raft and walking away.
Liang Yuan glanced at the two astute men, shook his head slightly but did not explain, and then walked towards Song Wen, asking, "For me?"
Song Wen’s pretty face turned slightly red: "Yes, I got your previous one wet. I brought you a new one. I’ll wash the old one and return it to you later."
She handed the clothes in her hand to Liang Yuan.
Liang Yuan took it and shook it, seeing the "Wenbao" art font design on it, he couldn’t help being slightly stunned.
Song Wen’s face turned even redder, quickly explaining: "I used to be a streamer, this was a custom benefit for my fan group, hence the print. Don’t misunderstand."
"I don’t have other men’s clothes at home."
Liang Yuan smiled and said, "It’s just clothes, no misunderstanding."
He put it on, and it fit perfectly.
As Song Wen looked at the text with her nickname on his chest, her face became even more flushed. She spoke softly, "I’ll go back now."
Liang Yuan nodded: "Go ahead, take charge of the third unit."
When Liang Yuan returned to Old Ma and Cai Zhi, they stared at his T-shirt with an indescribable look.
But it was inappropriate to ask so they tactfully avoided the topic, focusing on discussing the raft construction.
Soon, a rush of footsteps echoed down the corridor.
Liang Yuan, with keen hearing, immediately looked toward the sound.
He saw Ding Yan hurrying over, looking grim.
Liang Yuan immediately knew something urgent must have happened. He stopped what he was doing and walked over.
"Something’s wrong," Ding Yan said succinctly, "The cable to Unit One has been cut."
"There hasn’t been a response from the 75th building. Elder Lin and his team might be in trouble."
Liang Yuan frowned and turned to look at the 75th building, standing in the pouring rain across from them.
"What could have happened?"
The 75th building was also one of his points-earning channels.
Every day, they would deliver sixty to seventy fish yields, which equaled a significant amount of points.
The cable cut meant he’d lose a substantial amount of points. He couldn’t ignore it.
"Let’s go and check it out," he said.
They didn’t descend but climbed over the low wall from the rooftop to Unit One.
Sure enough, the cable connecting Unit One to the 75th building was completely severed.
Only the ropes swung in the wind.
Liang Yuan stared at the opposite building. With his eyesight, he could only see someone moving in the rain.
"Was it that person?"
Liang Yuan speculated who the person was.
This act seemed targeted at Elder Lin.
"It seems 75 isn’t peaceful either; Elder Lin might be in trouble," Ding Yan said, arms crossed, looking at the 75th building.
Liang Yuan said, "We have many superpower users here. It’s not surprising if a few superpower users awaken in the opposite building."
"Once someone has extraordinary power, it’s rare to restrain themselves. They tend to act on their whims."
"So I’m not surprised if another Liu Erlong or Wang Ze group appears there."
Ding Yan asked, "What do we do now?"
Liang Yuan shook his head: "No rush, wait. If Elder Lin isn’t dead, he will definitely contact us. Station people here to monitor the situation 24/7."
Ding Yan nodded: "Alright, I’ll take care of it."
"No problem, I have free time anyway. By the way, a man named Sun Da looked for me today, said you referred him?"
Liang Yuan nodded and recounted Zhang Lanjuan’s incident from the previous day.
Ding Yan sneered: "Sister Wu knows how to draw favors from your resources, huh!"
Liang Yuan smiled: "Never mind, Cai Zhi apologized to me this morning. We’re all on the same side."
Ding Yan’s expression softened a bit and said, "Alright, I arranged for Sun Da to patrol. He seems like an honest man."
Liang Yuan nodded: "Just treat him as a regular person for now."
Ding Yan acknowledged and changed the topic: "Do you think highly of Song Wen and Liu Feifei?"
"Why do you say that?"
"They haven’t killed anyone, yet you made them patrol leaders. They might struggle to control some unruly ones."
Liang Yuan smiled: "In this building, there aren’t many mutant ability users. Though they’ve not seen blood, having abilities puts them above many."
"Eventually, we will leave this building. Our focus should be beyond this building, on the people outside."
"Apart from various mutated creatures, the most caution should be on our kind."
"They’re the homeowners here, our neighbors. If we leave the building, they’ll be our natural allies and partners."
"If we don’t unite them now, when will we?"
Ding Yan pondered: "You’re worried there might already be groups on Sun Mountain."
Liang Yuan looked towards Yangshan: "In an apocalypse, any kind of person can emerge. The Yangshan area has high ground, ideal for resisting floods. It’s highly probable others thought of it too."
"There’s a high chance people are already there. Climbing Sun Mountain wouldn’t be easy."
He turned back to Ding Yan: "So we should unite useful people, especially Song Wen and Liu Feifei. Though they haven’t seen blood, nor killed anyone."
