She later left the state base.

I wasn't that surprised.

It's normal that the base can't keep someone like her.

She left completely, carrying her secrets that no one could reveal.

I know that she must have gone to a wider world.

Lu Chi stood in the deserted special zone all night.

I also didn't sleep all night.

I couldn't tell what I was thinking.

There seemed to be a hint of...pleasure in the unrequited love for his good brother.

What to do.

I didn't compete with him for it, but he didn't make any progress.

But I was also confused.

Lu Chi can be considered one of the best people of his age that I have ever met.

The little fox was not moved at all by such a man.

Then, am I also not worthy of her attention?

I rarely doubted myself.

But I couldn't help but laugh at myself.

What's the difference between making fun of my own thoughts and unrequited love?

Later, a wave of zombies broke out in the base.

The number of zombies is astonishingly large.

Fortunately, the base built secondary defenses.

This time, the zombie tide only broke through the outer defense wall, and the entire national base was saved.

As the master of all information, I know best how much the proposals made at the little fox meeting have contributed to the base.

If it weren't for her remarks, the base would have suffered heavy losses this time.

The casualties are unknown.

I was deeply shocked.

I always feel like she might know something.

Or maybe everything was really just a successful prediction and coincidence.

Not long after, she returned to the base.

I was very happy to see her again.

I remained calm and distant, and communicated with her calmly and normally, like an ordinary acquaintance.

But before I could say a few words, a soldier came to inform me that there was an accident in the rear of the base.

I could see some guilt in the soldier's eyes.

Facing this external soldier, the people under Lu Chi's jurisdiction.

I know it very well.

I hesitated.

At that moment, I had a premonition that if I left this time, I might miss something.

I thought a lot in those few seconds.

But when I ask myself, I am at most interested in this little fox.

I consider myself a difficult person.

My emotions are as picky as my people.

I don't want to open that door easily unless it becomes unforgettable.

I finally looked at her and said, "You take a rest. I'll go take care of things."

I strode away.

Without looking back, he followed the soldier to the back of the base.

I walked in a hurry.

Even I don't know what I'm avoiding.

My heart is becoming more and more confused.

A feeling of irritation rose in my heart.

He didn't even notice that he had stepped into a mud puddle and tripped.

"Deputy Minister, are you okay?"

The soldier's anxious voice rang in my ears.

I smiled and stood up, brushing off the dirt on my body: "It's okay, go ahead and do your work."

"..."

The soldier hesitated to speak, looking embarrassed.

I naturally knew what he wanted to say: "Don't worry, I know Commander Lu asked you to say this, I won't disturb him, you go ahead and do your work."

The soldier apologized profusely and left.

I lit a cigarette and took a long puff.

The smoke entered my throat, bitter and choking.

I walked back and stood quietly in the blind spot outside the special zone, looking at the two people hugging each other tightly in the bright space.

I smoked one cigarette after another.

I have never felt that cigarettes are so durable.

Half a pack of cigarettes, gone in a flash.

I couldn't help but start to doubt.

Am I really just interested in her?

If I'm really just interested, why do I feel so uncomfortable?

My throat seemed to be blocked by something, and my stomach was churning.

I propped myself up on my knees and tried to control the abnormality of my body.

"Deputy Minister, are you okay?"

"Deputy Minister, why are you here?"

Several soldiers passing by expressed their concern loudly.

I immediately stood up and waved my hand.

He grinned out of habit.

I walked forward as if nothing had happened: "You are so good, Lu Chi, you are playing tricks on me!"

It seems that only such carelessness and heartlessness can conceal my embarrassment and concern.

I laughed heartily and joked with him.

I don't want to know if they succeeded together.

The tenderness and attachment in that boy's eyes were enough to show that things were going well between them.

I was sick for many days afterwards.

I still did what I was supposed to do, but my sense of taste and smell didn't seem to work well, and I couldn't eat or sleep well.

The whole person is very depressed.

People tend to be unlucky when they are at their lowest point.

Soon, something happened at the branch base where Hong Bing was located.

The base sent a large number of troops to support.

Hong Bing was also taken to the main base to recuperate.

When I saw him again, he had not become more sensible, but even more crazy than when he was a child.

He clamored to merge the branch base into the main base and take my place.

Uncle Hong naturally disagreed and scolded him.

That night, Hong Bing and his subordinates launched a surprise attack on our elite troops.

There was a fierce fight between the two gangs.

Many people on both sides were injured.

Uncle Hong was furious about this.

I don't know what they talked about afterwards.

All the senior officials and elite troops in the base are waiting for an explanation.

The door opened, and Uncle Hong, who was exhausted, looked at me and said, "Gu Ce, come with me."

I followed him into a separate conference room.

He sighed helplessly: "Cer, I plan to go to the Glory Base to help that useless thing build a base."

"There are many survivors in his base, but the construction level is too poor."

He said, turning to look at me.

The dim sunset shone in through the window, illuminating his resolute face:

"Cer, I watched you grow up, and in my heart, you are like my son.

Bing'er is immature, so don't bother with him. But he is my biological son after all, and I can only beat him and scold him, but I can't deny him and ignore him.

Don't worry, I will definitely discipline him well this time when we are separated.

And the Glory Base will also be committed to giving every survivor a home.

After I convince Bing'er, our two families will unite and form an alliance to build a new home in the first phase!"

Facing the person I trust the most.

I naturally have no objection.

He has always kept his word since he was a child.

"Uncle Hong, I'll listen to you."

"Your elite troops are still with you. The external troops and psychics are being led very well by Lu Chi, the young and promising officer. You have a good relationship with him, so I will leave them to you as well."

He patted my shoulder and said, "I'll only take half of the weapons. The rest is yours."

I was deeply moved by his decision.

This choice is equivalent to handing over half of the country's base to me.

Such trust and entrustment.

I will certainly not let him down.

Just at the time of formal differentiation.

Hong Bing still caused some trouble.

He was extremely dissatisfied with the distribution of the arms and was determined to take away most of them.

Uncle Hong couldn't do anything to him.

I didn't stop it either.

No matter how dumb Hong Bing is, he still has Uncle Hong to back him up.

I feel relieved.

But I didn’t know at that time how much I would regret my concession later.

After the base was officially divided, City A in the north was also developed by us.

Lu Chi brought a large number of external psychics and troops to City A to build a base.

Since then, the National Base has been successfully divided into three bases: Glory Base, Dawn Base, and Morning Light Base.

As support, I gave Lu Chi half of the weapons.

Our two families formed an alliance.

But soon, I could no longer contact Uncle Hong.

Not only that, there are always waves of zombies pouring from City N to City H.

There were even several times when the target went straight to the Dawn Base.

Later on, people from the Glory Base came into direct conflict with the psychics from our base.

Through investigation, I found that everything was premeditated.

The other party is coming towards us.

I was extremely angry.

In the apocalypse, I have zero tolerance for humans killing each other.

Not to mention the glory base that was separated from the national base.

Most of the blood flowing in it is from the military zone.

I started to defend myself and fight back.

In the most serious incident, both sides lost dozens of lives.

That night, I received the first call from Uncle Hong after two months of disconnection:

"Cer, Bing'er has symbiotic abilities that can bind life and death. His target is not the base and power, but your life!"

After that urgent and somewhat weak voice.

I never got in touch with him again.

It was also after that time.

The battle between Hong Bing and I has completely begun.

I have a tight intelligence network in the South, and I know the ambitions and rapid expansion of the Confederacy.

Naturally, it is also clear that Hong Bing has begun to seek cooperation with the Southern Alliance again and again.

The purpose is to break me.

I also know about his exploitation and enslavement of base survivors and soldiers.

As for Uncle Hong, I didn't hear any news about him.

All we know is that the former high-ranking military officials are now serving as idle officers at the Glory Base, with their power hollowed out and without any say or right to mobilize military forces.

I can’t compete with Hong Bing in terms of military equipment, so I can only reduce the loss of military equipment as much as possible and win through strategy.

To prevent Hong Bing from climbing up the big tree of the Southern Alliance to deal with me.

I began to hide my military strength and stockpile large amounts of artillery shells.

It was so seamless that the officers at the base were completely unaware of it.

The only ones who knew all this were Lu Chi and Shen Yichen, the base's senior ordnance engineer.

Lu Chi is the person I trust the most.

As for Shen Yichen, he hardly ever goes anywhere except the armory and the research institute. I have worked with him for a few years and have a certain understanding of his character.

More reliable.

The worst thing to do when marching or fighting is to be impatient.

I've been waiting for an opportunity.

An opportunity to wipe out Hong Bing’s main force in one fell swoop.

We all know that we only have one chance for the final battle.

No mistakes are allowed.

But the change came so suddenly.

Enemy invasions, zombie enhancements, Confederate intervention.

Everything is developing in an uncontrollable direction.

Although I kept my trump card, I gradually lost my strength.

"Dawn Base will always be your strongest support."

As soon as Lu Chi said this, I knew that he wanted to mobilize all the psychics in the Dawn Base to help me.

But as the battle has developed to this point, it is no longer a test of manpower.

Instead, it is a competition of armaments and biological and chemical weapons.

Artillery fire is the real hard power.

No matter how many psychics there are, they will all be sacrificed in vain as human shields under artillery attacks.

I rejected his full offer of help.

Instead, he invited the little fox he met again to cooperate.

I had no idea how much ordnance she had.

I accepted this invitation with the intention of just giving it a try.

After all, Lu Chi doesn’t have many weapons.

The destruction of the three F cities and two months of arms funding had almost drained the armory at the Dawn Base.

She accepted my invitation.

Leisurely followed me to the Dawn Base.

But he has been reluctant to express his stance or reveal his cards.

I guess she doesn't have any weapons.

Right.

When she left the national base, she only took a small amount of weapons.

After so long, it should have been used up most of the time.

I was thinking about how to start the conversation so that she wouldn't be embarrassed.

However, something unexpected happened at the base.

The defensive wall was blown down and a wave of zombies invaded.

Such an incident happening at this critical juncture was almost like cutting off the base's main artery.

I tried to find a glimmer of hope in a desperate situation.

When she was at her wit's end, she fought her way out of the pile of zombies.

With a powerful energy, it helped me repair the protective wall.

And the endless flow of warm and healing air seemed to have repaired my tired heart.

The nerves that had been tense for months finally felt a little relieved.

Facing her, I couldn't help but feel a lot of different emotions.

It was like a heart that had been dead for many days began beating again.

But the beating did not last long, and then it returned to dead silence.

A strong feeling of regret arose in my heart.

Yes.

I am a dying man.

Facing this battle with Hong Bing, I had already written the ending for myself.

Symbiotic superpowers, symbiosis with me.

How could he kill me?

Obviously I could kill him easily.

Death is my destination.

It is a fate I cannot escape.

So, what reason do I have to think about what my heart desires?

But the more I force myself not to think about it, the deeper the regret I feel deep in my heart.

I couldn't help but ask her what regret she was most afraid of leaving behind.

After she answered, she asked me back.

I didn't speak.

Just watch her quietly.

If the regret cannot be made up, then it will be meaningless to speak it out.

I chose to bury this regret deep in my heart.

I am Gu Ce, and I am moved.
