Boss's Death Guide

Chapter 78 - Mu Yi

During the apocalypse, there was no such thing as prison. Under the management of the secure base, committing a small crime would generally mean beating the offenders up or penalising their supplies. As for severe crimes... Naturally there was only death.

After Yu Xuguang found and published evidence of General Sun plotting against ability users and indulging the researchers who captured hospital patients without relatives, there was only the path of death left for General Sun.

At the beginning when they saw Yu Xuguang do this, Nie Yi had thought he would encounter the resistance of General Sun’s subordinates, however, there was none... General Sun’s trusted aides had either been captured by him or were killed by the people in the research institute. The others were also disillusioned by what he had done, to the extent that not a single person came to save him.

Of course, this also had something to do with Yu Xuguang. Yu Xuguang, this person, was filled with passion. During the trial, he conveniently issued a few speeches, repeating that this was for humanity’s future. While these were sort of empty speeches, it was undeniable that the masses liked to listen to them right now.

However, not everything was perfect, because those main researchers had disappeared!

When Yu Xuguang examined the research facility later, he discovered a tunnel. It was certain that those people had escaped through this channel, but Yu Xuguang couldn’t find out where they went to after.

General Sun was in the wrong for this matter, but those researchers weren’t innocent either. It was so much that those researchers might be even more excessive... Yu Xuguang had examined those corpses, and felt that those people doing research were simply demented.

In his last life, there was no further news about those researchers; who knew if they had escaped back then as well. After discovering this matter, Yu Xuguang’s mood truly wasn’t good.

Nie Yi wasn’t in a good mood either. He felt like he had been played by those researchers. However, when recalled that those researchers were regular people and wouldn’t live long, he was no longer as angry.

After he personally watched General Sun being killed and ascertained that his men wouldn’t cause any trouble, he planned to go home.

“Nie Yi, wait!” Yu Xuguang called Nie Yi.

“Is something the matter?” Nie Yi asked.

“Your previous arrangements in W County secure base were very good; come help me out?” Yu Xuguang said. He had zero experience in managing a secure base, and was now caught unprepared.

“You can ask Sun Chengzhi to help you,” Nie Yi said.

“Sun Chengzhi? I just killed her dad!” Yu Xuguang was a little at a loss. He had previously heard Sun Chengzhi and General Sun’s conversation and sympathised with this girl. However, no matter what, he was still Sun Chengzhi’s enemy who had killed her father.

“You tell her that it’s for her to atone for her father’s crimes,” Nie Yi said. He knew very well about how to make someone like Sun Chengzhi work. As for the fact that forcing Sun Chengzhi to work like this was a little mean... He was never a nice person!

“Nie shao, how should those people be dealt with?” Nie Yi was speaking with Yu Xuguang when someone suddenly asked while pointing at the ability users who were tied up after they had tried to ambush Nie Yi and Qi Jingchen.

“These people took the side of the tyrant; just shoot them dead,” Nie Yi said. He would never be lenient to those who want to harm him and Qi Jingchen.

“There’s nothing wrong with that.” Yu Xuguang nodded as well. Even though he didn’t want to kill and wanted all of humanity to unite, he also knew that he couldn’t indulge their enemies.

Thinking of this, Yu Xuguang looked at the people Nie Yi had bundled up, and he suddenly became astonished— Among these people, there was unexpectedly someone he had seen before... That fellow with the black eye, wasn’t he the future chief of J City secure base?

No wonder Mu Yi would turn hostile against them after helping those ability users kill General Sun and obtain J City secure base. It seemed that those ability users were originally General Sun’s subordinates as well.

In his last life, these people had probably stayed under General Sun for a long time and had grown dissatisfied and ambitious, and so they gathered evidence of General Sun inflicting suffering. They also used Mu Yi and the other friends and families of the victims to kill General Sun, and finally became the chief of J City secure base.

The reason Mu Yi would fall out with them was mostly because she knew this.

Yu Xuguang felt a little regretful. Qi Jingchen gave him a couple more looks, then just happened to meet Yu Xuguang’s eyes. Yu Xuguang had even smiled and nodded at him.

This person truly was simple&#k2026; Qi Jingchen retrieved his gaze and said to Nie Yi, “Let’s hurry up and go back. I’m hungry, and I don’t know if the vegetables I planted have been dropped and broken.”

“They are probably not broken. Even if they are, I’ll definitely help you plant them,” Nie Yi said.

“Sure.” Qi Jingchen nodded.

Their team very soon returned to their camp. Right at this time, those in Chenguang Team who had gone out in search of supplies had returned as well, and had even brought back a few very interesting things.

“Nie shao, are koi edible?” a water ability user asked, “We went to a nearby park, and caught a few koi in the park’s pond! There’s also crucian carps and whatnot.”

“We caught a lot! I never thought that catching fish with water ability was so easy!” another water ability user said. When they saw that there was fish in the park’s pond, they were anxious about how to catch it at first. Unexpectedly, a water ability user tried and actually managed to use water to wrap around the fish and take it out!

Most of the fishes weren’t big, but there were quite a few that were the size of an adult’s arm; all of them were yellow, white, or red kois.

It was said that these things could bring good luck, but who knew if it was edible...

“In any case, it won’t poison us to death. At most it will just taste a little bad,” Nie Yi said.

“Then let’s have koi stew tonight!”

Qi Jingchen did not eat koi stew that night, but he ate roasted bird meat. The bird was caught and sent over to Nie Yi by someone who had gone to search for supplies.

A bird didn’t have much meat, but it was enough for Qi Jingchen to eat alone. He even asked Nie Yi if he wanted some, but how could Nie Yi rob him of it?

After eating and drinking their fill, everyone returned to their home or tent, and some gathered around the open fire to chat— Presently, the sun set too early, and they always had to idle away their time before sleeping.

At this time, Yu Xuguang came over.

“What are you here for?” Nie Yi came over to where they received guests in this temporary camp and asked with furrowed brows.

“I have a matter to tell you.” Yu Xuguang revealed a big smile, then began to... chat.

Nie Yi took a deep breath and began to deal with Yu Xuguang using the briefest words.

This sort of time should clearly be used to hold one’s lover to sleep, yet he was actually in a shoddy house made of soil with a plastic sheet covered on top and talking to someone he hated!

Yu Xuguang asked many things about what had happened on the road, and also about how Ping Shengchao gained his ability. Nie Yi didn’t hide anything about this at all, and bluntly spoke about how he found a mutated plant.

“You really are lucky.” Hearing that Nie Yi had simply found the mutated plant while strolling around in the forest with Qi Jingchen, Yu Xuguang was somewhat envious— He had never found any mutated plants.

“Correct.” Nie Yi nodded.

Yu Xuguang still wanted to ask some more when a child suddenly walked over.

This child was very small but was carrying a baby smaller than himself. After coming over, he placed a pot of hot water on the table beside Nie Yi; at the same time, he glared at Yu Xuguang, a little dissatisfied.

Yu Xuguang was the enemy who killed him, and had caused his family’s boss to die much sooner! Qi An snorted twice, hating that he couldn’t tear this person apart.

Yu Xuguang had very keen senses, and naturally noticed this child’s ill-will, and even vaguely sensed a murderous aura. However, when he tried to sense if further, he couldn’t feel it anymore.

It should be his misconception right? How could this child have a murderous air?

“Nie Yi, who’s this?” Yu Xuguang asked.

“A child we picked up while on the road,” Nie Yi said, then looked at Qi An. “Junzhe, why are you here?” The name Qi An definitely couldn’t be used in front of Yu Xuguang, so they could only switch it out. Fortunately, back when they introduced the Chenguang Team to Qi An, they had also said that this child was called Qi Junzhe.

Nothing to be done about it. Qi An truly wasn’t a common name.

“Big brother Qi asked you to go to sleep!” Qi An said, then shot Yu Xuguang a glare, “You’re big brother Qi’s man, and you can’t chat with strangers until you forget big brother Qi!”

Yu Xuguang was a little dumbstruck when he heard this— This little fellow couldn’t be filled with enmity against him because he misunderstood that he was here to snatch Nie Yi, right? There absolutely was no such thing ah! He had always liked women!

Yu Xuguang watched somewhat helplessly as Nie Yi walked off without even turning his head back and the boy carrying the girl had even turned his head to glare at him... however, he seemed to really have affected their romantic couple’s world?

That’s right, he never thought Nie Yi was so kindhearted, even picking up a child to raise while on the road...

“Qi An, aren’t you afraid he’ll recognise you?” Nie Yi glanced at Qi An.

“In our last life, Boss never let me go out for missions during the beginning. Then later, I wore a cloak. Who would recognise me?” Qi An raised his chin, proud of himself.

At the beginning, he was still young and Qi Jingchen didn’t allow him to do anything. But afterwards... Seeing Qi Jingchen always wearing a black robe, he also found a cloak to wear. Because of his short height, he also made stilts. After such trouble, and adding to the fact that he was a space ability user, he ended up being just as mysterious as Qi Jingchen!

Before he died, he had revealed his face while fighting Yu Xuguang, but Yu Xuguang would definitely never imagine an emaciated youth and a child with baby fats were the same person.

“Since he can’t recognise you, you can release a murderous aura?” Nie Yi said.

Qi An lowered his head to acknowledge his mistake. Releasing his murderous aura truly was his wrong. Next time, he must endure it! A nobleman gets his revenge, even if it takes ten years. In the future, he would definitely sort out this Yu Xuguang!

After warning Qi An of this, Nie Yi no longer spoke, and smiled as he entered the truck where he and Qi Jingchen lived. “Jingchen, did you miss me?”

His voice barely fell when he noticed that there was actually someone else in the car— Mu Yi was lying on a mat, and Mother Ping was looking after her.

“What’s wrong with her?” Nie Yi asked.

“A fever,” Qi Jingchen said. Previously, Mu Yi had kept thinking about getting revenge and had forcibly supported herself, so there was no issue with her health. Now that she had gotten revenge, all sorts of illnesses arrived, and she had even gotten a high fever.

A high fever was very troublesome to a pregnant woman...

“What’s the use of her staying here with a fever?” Nie Yi was a little depressed.

“She’ll sleep here today. Prepare a bit of ice and leave them at the side; later it’ll be used to physically lower her temperature. We’ll sleep somewhere else,” Qi Jingchen said. The floor was too moist and wasn’t good for Mu Yi, but this vehicle was different. Moreover, it was very spacious inside, and there was a complete set of things which made it convenient for Mother Ping to take care of Mu Yi.

The words ‘We’ll sleep somewhere else’ pleased Nie Yi, and he immediately stopped being angry. He asked, “Where will we go to sleep?”

“I want to try a tent,” Qi Jingchen said. He had never slept in a tent, and had long wanted to try experiencing sleeping in one.

“Then we’ll sleep in a tent!” Nie Yi immediately went off to prepare.

Mother Ping heard their conversation and couldn’t help blushing— The modern youths ah, opening and closing their mouth to talk about sleep, and who knew if they wanted to avoid other people...

Nie Yi moved his and Qi Jingchen’s sleeping bag over to a tent, and the two of them... harmoniously slept for the night.

The next few days, both Yu Xuguang and Nie Yi were quite busy, and their bustle wasn’t for nothing either. With their hard work, J City secure base finally did not fall into a mess and very soon became neat and orderly.

At first Sun Chengzhi wanted to leave J City secure base. With her father having committed such acts, she truly had no face to continue staying. However, Yu Xuguang had a conversation with her, and she ultimately agreed to stay behind. However, J City secure base would henceforth become like B City secure base and W County secure base; power would no longer be gathered under one person’s control.

To the civilians of the secure base, this was beneficial to them.

This bustling life sufficiently occupied them for a week. During this week, Yu Xuguang spoke of many methods to manage a secure base and the people benefited from it. After doing all of this, the him—who had not come to the Chenguang Team camp after being misunderstood by a child to be wanting to be a paramour previously—came over again to say goodbye to Nie Yi.

Nie Yi didn’t have much of a sense of belonging to B City secure base, but Yu Xuguang had treated that place as his home. “I’m leaving tomorrow.”

“Oh.” Nie Yi indifferently stated.

Was he so unwelcome... Yu Xuguang continued, “Can I meet Mu Yi?”

Nie Yi was eager for Yu Xuguang to stop bothering him, and immediately sent Yu Xuguang over to Mu Yi.

Mu Yi had already recovered from her illness and was moved to another truck. However, during these few days, she had become much thinner.

Yu Xuguang came to meet Mu Yi because he wanted to ask whether Mu Yi was willing to go to B City secure base with him. Mu Yi rejected him without hesitation. She wasn’t familiar with him, so how could she follow him to a distant place completely unfamiliar to her just because of Yu Xuguang’s words?

Yu Xuguang wasn’t surprised by this and very quickly departed. After Yu Xuguang left, Mu Yi had a fever for no reason again...

“If she’s reborn, it’ll be during this time.” When Qi Jingchen received this news, he was somewhat distracted.
