Chapter 83: Chapter 80 News from the Film and Television City_l

Two days ago, when she arrived at the base, Han Rui asked Wang Tao if he had seen her husband.

Wang Tao said he had, that a squad of soldiers had rescued her husband, but they hadn’t headed in the direction of the base.

Han Rui could understand that, the squad certainly didn’t want to draw zombies to the base.

So, after she met her old leader’s friend yesterday and settled down, she had been waiting for her husband to return.

But after waiting a day and a night, her husband and the squad hadn’t come back.

Although she knew that the squad was likely hiding from zombies somewhere, and her husband should be safe with them, they weren’t in the base after all, and she couldn’t help but worry…

Seeing Han Rui’s worried face, Wang Tao shook his head.

From his previous observations at the water plant and the recent interactions, he found Han Rui to be a decent person with a certain combat power. But her husband was just the opposite, not only useless but also of poor character. He wasn’t worthy of her.

Of course, it was someone else’s business, and Wang Tao didn’t care to get involved.

But no matter what, Han Rui was an ability user and possessed quite a useful support ability, so Wang Tao was still willing to be on good terms with her.

“Should I tell her about her husband? Let her see his true colors?”

Wang Tao hesitated slightly.

Because he knew very well that some people’s thought processes were different from others…

If it were Wang Tao himself, he couldn’t tolerate anyone who stabbed him in the back, no matter who it was. Having such a person by your side was like having a ticking time bomb.

But others might not think the same way. For instance, from Han Rui’s perspective, what her husband Sun Weiguang did was indeed despicable, but he did end up helping her, and furthermore, it was her own husband! If she decided to brainwash herself into forgiving her husband, even to speak on his behalf, then Wang Tao would end up looking bad from both sides.

Although Wang Tao felt that Han Rui was probably not that kind of person, such things can’t be judged on feelings alone…

“Hey, what’s wrong?”

Han Rui saw Wang Tao spacing out and poked his arm.

“I’m fine, just thinking about some stuff,” Wang Tao replied with a smile.

He had made up his mind—he wouldn’t tell her directly, but he could anonymously show Han Rui the video.

As for what she would do after that, it was none of his concern.

Wang Tao introduced Chen Zhuang to Han Rui, the two nodded politely, and then the three of them began to converse in hushed tones. They weren’t too familiar with each other, so the conversation didn’t go very deep.

Chen Zhuang wanted to talk to Wang Tao about ability users, but he wasn’t sure whether Wang Tao was willing to reveal his status as an ability user, so he didn’t say much.

Standing out in the crowd due to his physique, many new survivors instinctively kept their distance when they saw Wang Tao.

However, there were also some women who wanted to get to know Wang Tao, his stature conveying a sense of security. Unfortunately, Han Rui was always by his side, which made it awkward for some to approach him.

At this moment, Chen Zhuang poked Wang Tao’s arm.

“The commissioner is here!” he said.

Wang Tao and Han Rui both turned their heads and saw a group of people walking over, with three individuals walking side by side at the forefront.

On the left was a young man in a plaid shirt, with thinning hair and thick glasses; the one in the center was a frail-looking old man with a faint smile on his face; on the right was a somewhat overweight middle-aged man in a police uniform.

Their arrival instantly became the focus of the entire place.

“The one on the left is Commissioner Liu He, a computer whiz. He set up our base’s local network, Contribution Points, the personal information APP, and all that…” Chen Zhuang began introducing them to Wang Tao, starting from the left.

Wang Tao nodded; with that sparse hair, Liu He certainly looked like a powerful figure.

“The one in the middle is our former Shuize County Deputy County Head Ren Jie, also the honorary president of Shuize University. He’s in charge of the base’s personnel management…”

Wang Tao glanced at the small elder, who seemed amiable, but Wang Tao got the impression he was a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Having knocked about in the world for so many years, Wang Tao had seen quite a few such characters, and his instincts were usually accurate.

“The one on the far right is Police Officer Feng Ming’an, the former deputy chief of our Shuize County police station. Don’t be fooled by his plump appearance; he is remarkable, easily handling zombies with just a steel pipe…”

Single-handedly defeating zombies wasn’t a big deal, but Wang Tao took a longer look. Because the HP of both Liu He and Ren Jie was 100, indicating they hadn’t personally killed any zombies, whereas Feng Ming’an’s HP was over three hundred, meaning he had killed at least thirty to forty zombies himself.

None of the three had any hidden attributes or abilities. Judging from their individual strengths, Wang Tao rated them as average.

“Do you know each other?”

Wang Tao noticed Feng Ming’an nodding at Han Rui and asked out of curiosity.

“He’s a friend of my old leader. My old leader is still outside. I managed to contact him by accident before and came to Shuize Base following his instructions…”

Han Rui briefly explained.

“I see.”

Meeting someone you have a good relationship with in the post-apocalypse must feel quite nice.

The arrival of the three commissioners didn’t feature any grand speeches; they simply made a brief self-introduction in front of all the newcomers. They also introduced some matters related to the base, assuring everyone that as long as they worked hard, the base wouldn’t let them starve to death..
