But Su Ruyan sincerely wanted to join their team; as a precious Space Superpower User, she was considered a treasure wherever she went.
It was something anyone with sense would consider.
Then, Su Ruyan turned her head and looked outside the bunker.
She was thinking about how to get out from there.
At that moment, a calm, aged voice came,
"Don't bother looking, the zombies out here are just as numerous as those outside with Captain Zhao."
"And on our side, no one will distract the zombies to let you escape from here."
All the men in the bunker fell silent.
Su Ruyan, with an ugly expression, looked at Uncle Qu who had spoken and said, displeased,
"What do you mean by that?"
It made her sound like a treacherous villain.
Uncle Qu slowly approached Su Ruyan, followed by a downcast Qu Yimin, who was silent, fearful, and extremely cautious.
Uncle Qu stood in front of Su Ruyan, scrutinizing her with seriousness in his gaze,
as if assessing the value of a piece of merchandise.
Facing such a gaze, Su Ruyan felt uncomfortable and sensed danger, so she stepped back.
As Su Ruyan was frowning, thinking about what to say,
Uncle Qu spoke, "Captain Zhao just called me."
Indeed, there was freedom of communication even in the apocalypse.
It all started because of the Universal Signal Connectors sold at Xiang City Base.
These Universal Signal Connectors allowed anyone, under any extreme conditions, to communicate freely.
Su Ruyan raised an eyebrow, waiting for Uncle Qu to continue,
"According to Captain Zhao, you escaped from their team and directly caused the death of one of their teammates, is that correct?"
Captain Zhao had no other options; they kept begging Hua Mi, hoping she would help them and draw some zombies away so they could reach Su Ruyan.
Initially, Hua Mi remained indifferent, but as more people pleaded, she eventually gave Captain Zhao a phone number.
This phone number was the one Uncle Qu had given to Lin Zhigang.
Uncle Qu was eager to recruit Lin Zhigang and hinted at him when giving him the phone number,
that if Doctor Lin wanted to join the Qu Family's team, they were always welcome.
After getting the phone number from Hua Mi, Captain Zhao immediately contacted Uncle Qu, telling him about how Su Ruyan had left their team and caused one of their Power Superpower Users to get infected with the zombie virus.
Moreover, Captain Zhao told Uncle Qu everything about Su Ruyan's actions in detail.
Captain Zhao's message was straightforward; dealing with a treacherous woman like Su Ruyan should not be taken lightly.
Even if they ended up not retrieving the resources belonging to their team, they wouldn't allow Su Ruyan to continue thriving under Qu Family's care.
Su Ruyan, frowning, said,
"How could he say it was my fault? He is a Power Superpower User; dealing with a few zombies should be easy for him, right?"
"Now if he himself lacks strength and got bitten to death by zombies, it only shows his incompetence."
At the time, when Su Ruyan pushed that man off the second-floor balcony, she hadn't thought much about it.
She only thought that since the man was a Power Superpower User, she could use him to distract the zombies on the road while she made her way to the Qu Family.
There happened to be a gap in the circling zombies outside the Qu residence, so she entered directly.
Throughout the process, Su Ruyan never considered what would happen to the teammate she pushed.
Such selfish thoughts shocked the men on the Qu Family's side.
What was this situation? This wasn't a game.
This was the apocalypse, where everyone truly only had one life; how could they let someone like Su Ruyan join their team, let alone carry their supplies?
It was like putting a ticking bomb next to themselves.
With a mishap, they could lose all their essential resources.
"Now you want us to put important resources into your space, aren't you trying to pull the same trick you did with Captain Zhao, playing a trick on us?"
"Who knows if you'll take our resources and then push us into a horde of zombies and disappear without a trace."
"With someone as treacherous and disloyal as you, who would dare to have you?"
Accusations flooded towards Su Ruyan like a tide.
