Chapter 241 At the mercy of others
"Alright, stop causing trouble here. Come with me!"
The captain said somewhat impatiently.
He also didn't believe Su Chen's words.
Moreover, he often served on duty here, and he had met Liu Chengbo and other powerful figures many times.
But Su Chen was a completely unfamiliar face, which aroused his suspicion!
Seeing Su Chen surrounded by soldiers, Liu Chengbo couldn't help but reveal a smug smile.
"You bastard, this is what happens when you dare to go against me!"
Just as the soldiers were about to arrest Su Chen, a voice suddenly came from afar.
"Stop it all!"
Everyone was taken aback and looked outside.
Zhang Zuming, accompanied by Shi Menglei and Sun Jiancheng, was seen walking briskly towards them!
"Greetings, Captain!"
The captain was taken aback and quickly saluted Zhang Zuning!
"Are you blind? How dare you be so disrespectful to the deputy leader?"
Zhang Zuming immediately started yelling at the captain!
Upon hearing this, Liu Chengbo, the soldiers, and the onlookers were all stunned.
what?
Is this young man really the deputy leader?
Unlike Su Chen, Zhang Zuming has quite a reputation in the base.
After all, he is the captain of the special operations team, representing the highest level of military force in the base!
Amidst the shocked gazes of the crowd, Zhang Zuming bowed to Su Chen.
"Greetings, Deputy Chief! Deputy Chief, are you alright?"
"I'm fine for now, but if you had come any later, I might have been in trouble."
Su Chen shrugged and said indifferently.
"What exactly is going on?"
Zhang Zuming's face darkened, and he growled at the captain.
His nervousness wasn't due to Su Chen's strength, but rather because Lin Yuxin had instructed him to treat Su Chen well.
Not long after, Su Chen was almost arrested.
If the matter cannot be properly handled, Su Chen will report it to Lin Yuxin.
Given Lin Yuxin's methods, Zhang Zuming is likely to be in deep trouble!
The captain was somewhat at a loss, but he could only bite the bullet and briefly recount what had happened.
"Nonsense, how could the deputy leader be that kind of person?"
Zhang Zuming almost laughed out of anger.
He pulled out a pistol, pointed it at Liu Chenbo's forehead, and shouted sternly.
"Hurry up and confess honestly!"
Liu Chengbo was nothing more than a spoiled brat.
He was so scared when someone pointed a gun at his head that he almost peed his pants.
He dared not be stubborn anymore and quickly and honestly explained the whole story!
"So that's it!"
Zhang Zuming nodded and then pulled the trigger!
"boom!"
A gunshot rang out, and Liu Chengbo was instantly blown out of the head!
"what……"
Those around gasped in surprise!
Even Su Chen was somewhat surprised.
I never expected Zhang Zuming to be so ruthless!
"This is what will happen to anyone who dares to be disrespectful to the deputy leader!"
Zhang Zuming glanced around, then turned to the captain and said coldly.
"Clean this place up, and be careful next time, understand?"
"understand!"
The captain was also terrified and turned pale. He quickly nodded.
"Okay, let's all disperse!"
Zhang Zuming waved his hand.
The onlookers scattered like birds and beasts!
"Deputy Chief, are you satisfied with this solution?"
Zhang Zuming put away his gun and said respectfully.
"is acceptable."
Su Chen nodded slightly, and asked with some curiosity,
"Isn't Liu Chengbo's father the director of the logistics department? You just killed him like that, aren't you afraid of getting into trouble?"
"What trouble could there be?"
Zhang Zuming laughed dismissively.
"His father used to manage the granary. Later, he brought a large amount of grain and voluntarily surrendered to the leader, who appointed him as the head of the logistics department."
"Actually, I don't have much power."
"Don't even mention killing him. I'll report to the leader later and have his father dealt with too!"
He spoke casually, but his words revealed cold-blooded ruthlessness!
This is the end of the world!
Without power or influence, one can only be slaughtered by others!
Su Chen thought to himself.
"By the way, Deputy Chief, this is your ID card."
Zhang Zuming handed over another card and explained.
"With this card, you can basically come and go freely within the base!"
"In addition, considering that you don't have many people around you who can be ordered around, I took the liberty of transferring Shi Menglei and Sun Jiancheng here to be at your command."
Su Chen was extremely satisfied with his decision.
"Thank you very much!"
"Deputy Chief, you don't need to be so polite. The Chief said that you should rest well today and he will come to see you again tomorrow."
Zhang Zuming exchanged a few more polite words with Su Chen before turning and leaving.
While they were talking, the soldiers had already dragged Liu Chengbo's body away.
Several cleaners also cleaned up the bloodstains on the ground.
However, the pungent smell of blood still lingered in the air!
"Brother Su!"
Shi Menglei, Sun Jiancheng, and Su Chen greeted each other.
Su Chen glanced around and, making sure no one was paying attention, whispered,
"I plan to take a walk around the base first. You two come with me!"
After Shi Menglei suggested leaving together afterward, Su Chen felt relieved and told him his intention to enter the Omnipotent Eye base.
"no problem!"
Shi Menglei readily agreed, and then asked,
"Brother Su, do you want to go see the Skywalker Alliance?"
"No, if we go to see them now, it will attract Lin Yuxin's attention."
Su Chen shook his head.
"Just show me around!"
"Yes!"
Shi Menglei and Sun Jiancheng nodded in agreement.
So the three people and the cat left the living area and began their journey to the lower levels of the base.
Just as Zhang Zuming had said.
As long as Su Chen took out the card representing his identity, the soldiers did not stop him at all when they saw him.
soon.
The three of them then arrived at the production area.
This area is divided into two zones.
The first area was specifically designated for growing crops and raising livestock.
To Su Chen's surprise, there was a huge fish pond with various kinds of fish for the upper class to enjoy.
The second area is the manufacturing area.
The survivors at the bottom of the hierarchy are responsible for generating electricity in this area.
In addition, all other materials are manufactured here.
Su Chen also found what he was looking for in this area.
The machines that manufacture guns and ammunition are constantly making a roaring sound.
Hundreds of survivors are working busily on both sides of the rolling assembly line.
Su Chen did not immediately put the machine into the storage space.
After all, doing so would only alert the enemy.
He simply observed the specific environment around him and then memorized it.
"Let's go, let's go to the next floor!"
Su Chen beckoned to Shi Menglei and Sun Jiancheng, preparing to head to the next floor.
However, at that moment, he suddenly noticed an iron gate in a corner.
This iron gate is not very conspicuous.
It was mainly the two soldiers standing in front of the gate that caught Su Chen's attention.
