Chapter 183: Secret Discovered

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Tang Susu knew that Cheng Cheng and the others must have noticed that they were dealing with some private matters, so she stood outside the door and didn’t walk in.

Naturally, they would not talk about it in front of them either.

She looked at Mr. Tang curiously. “Dad, where have you been? Why did you take so long?”

“Oh, Mr. Duan sent someone to ask me to go to a meeting. He said that they’ll be going to the city tomorrow to collect supplies and asked if we’ll be joining them. He also asked if we have any superpowers and even asked about Cheng Cheng.”

Cheng Cheng immediately looked at him. Of course, she had also concealed her powers. She had heard that the chief and the others had an argument with the Tang family, so she had also concealed her power to reduce the danger to her to a certain extent.

Mr. Tang smiled. “I didn’t say anything, of course. I simply ignored him. So, do you guys want to go?”

Cheng Cheng thought that if she couldn’t get past her aunt, she would have to find some supplies for them. Otherwise, it would be difficult for ordinary people like them to survive in this shelter where there was a clear hierarchy.

If her aunt passed the test… The only way she could think of to quickly repay the Tang family was with the crystal cores.

“I’ll go!”

“I’m not going,” said Tang Susu.

“Don’t go. You just came back after a long while and haven’t even rested for two days.” Mrs. Tang said with heartache.

“Then we won’t go either.” Tang Mingqi and Tang Mingchu were happy to stay by their sister’s side. They were not short of supplies and they also had plenty of crystal cores. They were already almost overflowing with resources, so it was alright for them to miss a supply run.

Mr. Tang wanted to go, though.

“I’ve heard from Mr. Duan that the Qingzhou authorities are recruiting capable people and seem to be planning to build a base. If we can help during this period, we can be senior figures. However, we still have to go and see the specifics of the situations…”

Tang Susu tried hard to recall it, but the plot of the game revolved around the main characters. While many things were detailed, many things didn’t. The story didn’t introduce the situation of the entire world, only the key plot points and their related content.

“Mingqi, do you want to go with dad?” Tang Susu asked.

Tang Mingqi naturally would not reject her. “Sure!”

Along the way, they didn’t meet any government officials. They either went to a safer place to escape, turned into zombies, or were killed by the zombies.

With the sudden arrival of the apocalypse, even the high-level figures, like many ordinary people, had lost the credibility of their command.

In comparison, the more powerful soldiers had gathered more authority.

However, the Tang family still had a glimmer of hope for the officials. Other things aside, they might be able to gather some new information…

Seeing that they had almost finished their discussion, Cheng Cheng explained her purpose for coming with a slightly blushed face.

Mrs. Tang naturally didn’t refuse her. No matter what, Xiaoyuan was the most innocent and pitiful one. So, she decided to let her stay.

Then, she gave a handful of cherry tomatoes to Xiaoyuan and smiled. You’ll sleep in the same bed as Sis Susu tonight.

Cheng Yuan shyly looked up at Tang Susu, but she didn’t give any response. Seeing Tang Susu suddenly stand up and walk upstairs, she suddenly lowered her head in sadness.

“I… I’ll sleep on the sofa.”

Tang Mingchu caught up with his sister. He really wanted to know what Susu was planning. The matter with Du Gang was making him very curious!

Tang Susu asked the system to help her search the room. After making sure that there were no listening devices or surveillance devices, she answered her brother’s question.

“I wanted to know what he was up to, so I let him go.”

“Just that?” On second thought, he said, “It’s really hard to get the answer just by asking him. I thought that guy was a coward, but just now, he was well prepared and he pre-planned all his steps. With that acting skill of his, what a waste for him not to be an actor!”

“Maybe he is an actor.” Tang Susu joked, but then she thought of one of the male leads. Wasn’t he a top idol who had won the best actor award earlier?

“Do you want me to follow him?” Tang Mingchu said worriedly.

“Who said I didn’t have him followed?” Tang Susu didn’t keep him in suspense. “When I helped him up just now, I placed a covert listening device on him. Now, all we need to do is to wait and see who he is seeing and what he is saying.”

Tang Mingchu was instantly in awe. “As expected of you. You’re so much more cautious. I could see that he was a little touched by you just now.”

“Who knows if that was an act, too?” Tang Susu didn’t care much about it and she walked into her brother’s room and frowned.

“Someone’s been here.”

“What!”

“Here.” Tang Susu pointed to a table in the room. Although it was a temporary housing, after living in it for a while, it would slowly be adapted to the owner’s taste. For example, Mingchu’s room was very messy.

The eldest brother was someone with OCD. There was nothing in the room except for an ordinary square table that was originally there. It was placed against the wall extremely neatly, but now it was a little slanted.

She immediately went in front of the only window in the room.

“Darn it!”

Tang Mingchu also saw half a footprint on it and his face immediately darkened. “Someone else was here?”

“Wait, I understand now. That person just now was probably just trying to divert our attention!” He called out.

“To be able to jump down from the second-floor window… The person must have some skills.” Tang Susu looked at the rotating array around her big brother and felt a headache.

That person had probably triggered the talisman matrix and was bounced off to the table, causing the table to move.

“It’s all our fault. We were too relaxed, and we were upset by those guys who came to apologize…”

Tang Susu narrowed her eyes. “It’s not that hard to guess. Those people are here to distract you, and dad… It’s very likely that he was also called away as a distraction!”

“This must be the work of Lu Yunxiang and Mr. Duan! Just because he wanted to know our powers? What do we do now?”

Tang Susu remembered Jin Dahai and massaged the spot between her eyebrows. “Don’t panic. This means nothing. Perhaps they are still afraid of our strength. After all, anything can happen during the apocalypse.”

“We have to stay calm at this time. Otherwise, the other side will know that they have something on us.”

“Shouldn’t we just…” Tang Mingchu made a beheading gesture with a ferocious expression.

Tang Susu wanted to do the same, but she couldn’t guarantee that the other party wouldn’t do something that would end up destroying both sides.

“Let’s play it by ear and see what they want to do…”

Qingzhou Shelter, in the newly built office of the town government.

When Lu Yunxiang came out of the bath, she saw that her personal bodyguard was already waiting at the door. “Come in. Did you see that person?”

The man in black sportswear clutched his chest, his face a little pale.

“What’s wrong? You didn’t complete your task and got beaten up?” As she spoke, the woman became even more interested. She looked much younger and more elegant without her makeup.

Wearing a face full of heavy makeup often gave her a lot of confidence, making people not dare to provoke her easily.

“No…” The man’s expression was strange, and he didn’t know how to describe it.

“I saw Tang Mingzhou in the other room. There was something strange around him, like those amulets used to ward off ghosts. I don’t know what he was doing. It looks like he’s cultivating?”

“A Daoist priest?” Lu Yunxiang’s interest was instantly piqued.. “Is that the reason they are so strong? “
