Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus-Chapter 102 - 95: Observation
Li Yu didn't speak further, pointing to the building next door, signaling Li Tie to head in that direction along the adjacent street.
The composed man glanced at Li Yu but didn't say anything.
Nothing else happened along the way.
Just as they were about to reach the vicinity of Glory Building, Li Yu suddenly saw a group of people from the car!
The group, comprising both men and women, was heading towards the shopping plaza. Although they noticed Li Yu and his vehicle, they didn't pay much attention.

Li Yu narrowed his eyes and, pointing his gun at the composed man, said, "Are they your people?"
After looking through the group, the composed man finally spotted a short-haired woman wearing glasses and then said, "They're not with us..."
"They belong to another faction. I had intended to join them."
"Why didn't you tell me this earlier?"
The composed man shook his head and said, "I thought it wasn't important, and you didn't ask if there were other factions in the city."
Li Yu was somewhat speechless; the situation was beyond his expectations. Although those people hadn't bothered with them, Li Yu felt uncomfortable; he didn't like sudden developments.
So he directed Li Tie to find a hidden spot and for the time being, they didn't proceed towards Glory Building. Now that a new faction had appeared, he wouldn't act without understanding the situation.
After stopping the car, Li Yu looked at the composed man before him and stabbed a knife into his leg.
Hiss...
Ah...
Before he could scream out loud, Li Yu put the knife to his throat, "Shut up, make a sound and I'll kill you."
Then, Li Yu looked at him with a sinister glare.
Fiercely, he said, "Tell me everything you know. If a similar situation arises again, I'll kill you."
The composed man thought he had earned Li Yu's trust, but the encounter with that group of people had instantly enraged Li Yu.
Moreover, in the composed man's mind, those people truly posed no threat to them. He had originally planned to join them, but his family was still with Boss Zhang.
Sigh...
The composed man seemed to fall silent, but as Li Yu raised his hand, seemingly ready to stab once more, the composed man could no longer sit still.
Having gritted his teeth through the pain earlier, and with his leg still bleeding, he wasn't willing to suffer another stab. So he immediately said, "There are two factions in the city. One is the one you just saw.
They have around 300 people, with Director Zhang and Officer Zhou in charge. They're mainly officials and a few police officers, and they later recruited some college students and teachers nearby. Now their numbers are growing.
From what I know, they likely don't have many firearms. Although their situation seems pretty decent, the office workers from the Government and those few police don't get along well, but overall, it's relatively good.
The faction I'm part of.
We have roughly over 200 people. Originally, Officer Ma was in charge there, and Boss Zhang used to be in the mining business, with several dozen people following him. Officer Ma and Officer Xiao Feng had initially considered merging with Director Zhang's group. After all, more people make it easier to get things done.
But Officer Ma was bitten by a Zombie one time when he was out, and Officer Xiao Feng disappeared mysteriously afterward. Since then, Boss Zhang took direct charge of the entire faction."
Having said so much in one breath, the composed man clasped his wound tightly, seemingly wanting to tend to it. Li Yu glanced at him and then tossed over a medical kit.
The young man beside him quickly caught him, then proceeded to tend to the wound on the composed man's leg.
Li Yu said coldly, "What else is there? You haven't finished talking."
The composed man's wound on his leg had just been disinfected with alcohol by the young man, and he immediately gasped from the sharp pain.
Li Yu said, "I didn't stab that deep, just two centimeters. Hurry up and talk!"
The composed man pursed his lips, and continued, "I originally wanted to join Director Zhang's side, but I'm from the same hometown as Officer Ma and knew him. He happened to invite me to join at the time, so I didn't think too much and just joined.
But who could have thought, Officer Ma would end up dead later, and Officer Xiao Feng disappeared too. Those of us who joined became marginalized, and some tried to defect to Director Zhang's side but were suppressed by Boss Zhou.
He must have guns, and he has dozens of men under him who follow his orders, so many wanted to rebel, but he imprisoned all of our families.
Thus, we truly had no choice.
There was also a lack of unity on Director Zhang's side. Those few officers probably knew Officer Ma and suspected that Boss Zhou killed him, looking to settle scores with Boss Zhou.
However, Director Zhang's side didn't want to sour the relationship between the two factions too much, leading to an awkward situation.
Two factions, although in conflict, didn't have major clashes. There might be under-the-table conflicts, but on the surface, they maintained some restraint."
Li Yu, upon hearing this, pressed his temples with both hands.
He felt this was damn complicated.
But his feelings didn't matter. Neither side had many firearms anyway.
And he came to the city center to do three things only: to kill! To kill! To kill!
To avenge Zhao Dapao and slay those bastards.
After organizing his thoughts, Li Yu told Li Tie to keep driving the car to the building opposite the Glory Building.
As the car moved slowly, the composed man's leg wound stopped bleeding, now wrapped in a bandage. He didn't feel as uncomfortable.
They went to a parking garage on the ground as usual, and Li Yu and the others climbed the stairs.
While climbing, Li Yu led the way, carefully searching the surroundings to prevent any zombies from popping up.
Maybe zombies preferred dark and cold places during the day. Li Yu looked down to the first basement floor earlier and saw several zombies, so he blocked the path leading up from the basement with debris.
He also blocked the doors and windows from the ground floor to the first floor.
Then they slowly made their way upstairs, but there were not many zombies. They only had to deal with four zombies along the way.
The electricity was out, so they could only climb by foot. However, this wasn't so easy for the composed man.
But Li Yu ignored him and made him climb from the first floor to the seventh floor. Li Yu checked the position upstairs, then looked out the window towards Yugu Platform in the distance.
He said, "Let's stay here for now."
As everyone approached the window, Li Yu couldn't help but add, "Don't all go over at once. Stay hidden, and don't let others spot us here."
So, everyone stayed behind the curtains, beginning to surveil Yugu Platform.
Yugu Platform was smaller than Li Yu had imagined, but it was a good spot for fending off zombies.
But as for defending against people, not so secure. Probably in Boss Zhou's mind, they were the ones always causing trouble; how could they expect trouble to come find them?
