My MCV and Doomsday

Chapter 510: Lies Must Be Exposed

Translator: Liu_Kaixuan Editor: Valvrave

After returning to the Jiangning Safety Zone, Jiang Liushi immediately headed to the headquarters. Unfortunately, he could not meet with General Zhang. All the influential figures of the Jiangning Safety Zone were quite busy, so the reception officer refused to report it.

Jiang Liushi had no choice but to leave the headquarters. After leaving the building, he encountered a few acquaintances, Captain Guan, and Bai Jiayan. They were discussing with some people at the door.

After escaping from the massive mutant birds' claws, they had immediately rushed back to the Jiangning Safety Zone. They had arrived earlier than Jiang Liushi as the latter had taken a detour. Naturally, they were there to report what had taken place and inquire about the overall situation. They, as well as other officials, had heard about the Honeycomb's appearance, but only the higher-ups were privy to details. Although hundreds of thousands of people lived in the Safety Zone, most of them were in the dark. Some of people had heard a few rumors, but they didn't pry further as they knew that the military would act.

As Captain Guan's team had just returned from the center of the city, people paid more attention to them.

"Captain Bai, what's that indeed?"

"Did you see it at a close range?"

"I heard that you suffered a lot. I also heard that a team was vanquished, and only one member was able to escape, is it true?"

The crowd around them kept bombarding them with similar questions.

"I heard that you headed out with a survivors' team, where is that team now?"

"Maybe all the members of that team were killed by…"

In their minds, the strength of survivors' teams was inferior to that of the military. Even the Panther Squad had suffered heavy losses, so they found it reasonable that the survivors' team would not have made it.

"You're wrong. They left before us. I don't know about their current situation," said Captain Guan in a sad tone.

"Left early? Did they run away?" asked a man in military uniform with a frown.

Beside him was a female officer. She smiled coldly and said, "Shi Ying Squad, right? I knew that they would be deserters! I bet that when they encountered the mutant birds, they were scared to death." Naturally, the female officer was Wan Lan, who had been punished because of Jiang Liushi back at the Safety Zone. She had been assigned to an inferior post, so how could she not feel angry and spiteful after hearing about Jiang Liushi's team?

"Excuse me, the Shi Ying Squad drives a minibus, right?" asked a younger female officer.

"Yes, but why do you ask?" Wan Lan turned and asked curiously.

The younger officer was suddenly shocked by her question, and then she explained, "I knew them when I was still in Shenhai Island. However, I don't think they could do that, they…"

"Sh*t up. What do you know? Are you familiar with them? Facts speak louder than words. That Captain, Jiang Liushi, isn't a kind guy." Wan Lan interrupted the younger officer's words with her cold smile.

'Again with the Shenhai Island...'

Wan Lan didn't care about the matters of Shenhai Island at all. In fact, she hated anything related to it. Although she could only lower her head and listen carefully whenever General Zhang talked about it, the young female officer wasn't her equal. How could she let her talk about it and hear out her explanation?

The younger officer's face turned red as she had been reprimanded before so many people. After hesitating for a while, she asked again, "Excuse me, where is Shi Ying Squad?"

"I don't know," answered Captain Guan while shaking his head.

"Why are you still asking silly questions? Maybe they will never come back," said Wan Lan with a wide smile. She hoped that Jiang Liushi and his team were no longer in the world of the living.

However, at that moment, she felt her back was cold. She was frightened and suddenly turned to look back. She was totally shocked after turning back. Jiang Liushi was standing in front of her!

"Say that again," said Jiang Liushi.

Wan Lan didn't know what to do next. She had never expected that Jiang Liushi could be here. Jiang Liushi's fierce staring eyes made her heart almost jump out of her chest. But, she regained her wits swiftly as she thought that she was safe since they were standing before the headquarters' entrance.

Although General Zhang was Jiang Liushi's backer, Wan Lan believed that the military would harshly punish any deserter no matter who they were. In her mind, as long as Captain Guan reported about the situation, she knew that they would be driven out of the safety zone. At the same time, Wan Lan was quite delighted as she was under the impression that her previous judgment was spot on; an arrogant team was harmful to others.

"How can your mouth be so stinky? How long has it been since you last brushed your teeth?" asked Jiang Zhuying with a frown. She was really annoyed by Wan Lan's spiteful remarks. As a result, she walked toward Wan Lan faster than her brother.

Wan Lan was startled by the sudden and rude question, but she still smiled. "Oh? Why did you come back? You were under the protection of our soldiers, but you still chose to run away after facing danger!? If I were you, I'd find a place to hide. What a nerve! Shame on you!"

"Oh, Captain Guan, that's what you told them?" asked Jiang Liushi and stared at Captain Guan and Bai Jiayan.

Captain Guan just opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say next. He didn't expect that Shi Ying Squad would come back so soon.

"You came back…." When he saw Jiang Liushi, Captain Guan felt nervous and tried his best to explain. Actually, he hadn't said that Jiang Liushi and his team had run away, but he also didn't expect the situation to take such a turn. He knew that if he were, to tell the truth, his team would become a laughingstock.

"Actually, Shi Ying Squad didn't run away. They just acted separately from us," explained Captain Guan hurriedly.

"At that time, Captain Jiang sensed that danger in advance and advised us to leave as soon as possible, but I didn't follow his suggestion. As a result, Captain Jiang decided to leave with his team. But as soon as they left, the catastrophe followed…I should take full responsibility for this loss," added Captain Guan sadly.

Everyone was astounded when they heard that. Then, they started whispering. Wan Lan felt it was impossible. After being stunned momentarily, she thought of something and immediately asked, "Since they sensed the danger and suffered the attacks of the mutant birds, why are all of their members still okay? Why is that minibus still intact? You obviously suffered great losses compared to them."

Many survivors also felt perplexed after listening to her question.

At that moment, Bai Jiayan sighed. "That's because Captain Jiang's minibus is outstanding and powerful," answered Bai Jiayan to Wan Lan's question directly. It was purely a large gap in strength!

Wan Lan was not only shocked, but she also felt that she was about to have a mental breakdown. Jiang Liushi's power had not only convinced Captain Guan, but also Bai Jiayan, who had come from the Huaxia Region!

Captain Guan had also assumed full responsibility, which meant that Jiang Liushi would not be punished at all. Instead, they should all apologize to Jiang Liushi!

As expected, Captain Guan bowed his head to Jiang Liushi and said gratefully, "I'm truly sorry. I should apologize to all my teammates as well as the Shi Ying Squad. But for now, we need to report as soon as possible." Then, Captain Guan and Bai Jiayan left at once, entering the headquarters.

The crowd continued whispering after their departure.

At that moment, Jiang Liushi stared at Wan Lan and asked, "Don't you also have to say something to me?"

Wan Lan was scared, but she also felt very angry. "Say what? Since you are powerful enough, why didn't you rescue them? They died because of you…"

"What do you want to do?" asked a male officer with a frown after seeing the scene. "This is the Safety Zone, do you want to fight?"

"Lin Yuan…" Wan Lan stepped back and hid behind Lin Yuan quickly.

"A little misunderstanding. Don't mind," said Lin Yuan stiffly.

Jiang Liushi just looked at them indifferently, and then he smiled. "Zhuying, let's go."

Lin Yuan looked at them all the time until they walked far away. He felt Jiang Liushi's smile was meaningful.

But after all, this was the Safety Zone, and Jiang Liushi couldn't do anything. Moreover, this conflict wasn't the trouble for them to fight.

Lin Yun turned back and said to Wan Lan, "Don't worry. But remember not to bother him anymore."

Wan Lan retorted, "How could I be afraid of him in the Security Zone? But I didn't know he was here just now. In any case, I need to thank you, Lin Yuan."

"You don't have to thank me. I just looked out for you because of your sister. If your sister learns that you're causing trouble, she will scold you." said Lin Yuan.

"Why? Am I wrong? Even if I misunderstood him, he indeed didn't rescue them," shouted Wan Lan.

Lin Yuan sighed. He didn't have any method to change her mind and was worried about Wan Lan's future from his heart. Wan Lan had a good opinion of herself, but she didn't possess the power to support it. Sooner or later, she would do something impulsive.

Jiang Liushi and Jiang Zhuying were walking, but they heard fast footsteps coming from behind. Without waiting for the other party to call him, Jiang Liushi stopped and then turned his head: "Who?"
