Zombie Apocalypse: Creation

"So you are saying the soldiers better off than those commercial owners and white collar workers?" Liu Ping chimed in as Chen Gang ran out of word to say.

Yezi couldn't argue back at all as he realized his own statement was flawed. The commercial owners was in fact, still better off than even the captains.

"Fine, I hope you all don't regret this." Yezi walked away and left the armory entrance.

"Finally, is everyone ready?" Chen Gang looked back one last time.

"Yes sir!" All of militia yelled back.

Chen Gang inserted the key and opened the armory.

"Everyone get on the floor and surrender now! Any sign of resistance will be immediately be shot!" Li Zhen yelled out as the militia members all looked confused.

"Last warning, get down on the floor or we are opening fire." Li Zhen yelled out one last time.

With the polices completely armed, the militia quickly surrendered as they got to the floor.

"H-He's the one that directed all this." Ma Tian immediately pointed at Chen Gang as he got down on the floor.

Both Liu Ping and Chen Gang looked in shock by the betray as they were the only ones who haven't gotten down to the floor.

Before Liu Ping can yelled back, Chen Gang throw a stun grenade toward the polices.

With a loud bang and flash, everyone in the room couldn't see anything at all and the police who were close to the explosion were completely stunned as the sharp noise pierced through their ears.

Chen Gang grabbed Liu Ping's hand and rushed out of the armory.

"Where are we going?" Liu Ping was still recovering from the flash bang.

"Out of this town." Chen Gang replied.

"But where can we go?"

"We're going to the wall."

The two kept running until they reached the wall.

They looked back for a second, only to see zero sign of police chasing at all.

"I remember correctly there should be a tunnel here..." Chen Gang kept walking next to the wall.

"Really? When did we got a tunnel?" Liu Ping curious asked.

"As an escape when the plan fails... do you want to go with me?" Chen Gang finally found the tunnel covered by a wooden plank.

"I don't have any other options do I?" Liu Ping imagined himself returning back and getting executed for treason.

Yuqi arrived at the armory with Leyan as Li Zhen called her to bring an doctor that the threat was neutralized.

"Is everyone okay?" Yuqi asked as she noticed all the militias that had been tied up.

"Yeah they didn't have any guns so they didn't fire back... but their leader had a stun grenade and we didn't react in time." Li Zhen replied as he looked over to Yuqi.

"Where's the doctor?"

"She's the doctor. All the hospital are short staffed right now." Yuqi pointed at Leyan.

"Where's the injured?" Leyan couldn't find it.

"It's right here." Li Zhen lead the two all the way to the back.

The injured police was on the ground, with burn marks on his skin and his eyes seem to be blinded as he didn't notice anyone walking toward him.

"Yi Ling, are you okay?" Li Zhen asked as he lifted him up a little.

Yi Ling doesn't seem to hear anything, but he could feel someone moved him up a little.

"Li Zhen? Is that you?" Yi Ling moved his hand aimlessly as he couldn't see or hear at all.

"Did he got hit by the grenade directly?" Leyan asked as she dropped down to examine the burn mark and the injuries.

"The stun grenade unfortunately landed right on him and popped open before he could react." Li Zhen replied.

Leyan put on the burn cream on Yi Ling and packed everything back up.

"This burn mark just need a little time to disappear. It leave a little patch for a long time. And about his senses, its a small concussion and I can't do much on that." Leyan closed her medic bag.

"His hearing and vision might be damage a little, but he will recover like in a hour or so." Leyan added.

"Thank you so much." Li Zhen bowed down in gratitude as two police officer help support Yi Ling back up.

"Who's the head of the coup?" Yuqi asked as the three moved back to the front.

"We only got one of them. The other two ran away after they threw the grenade. We couldn't chase after them since we all got stunned by it." Li Zhen apologized.

"It's fine, you don't need to apologize for that. Nobody expected them to still have weapon." Yuqi lifted Li Zhen back up.

"Where are all these people going to go?" Leyan curiously asked as they were being loaded into the police cars.

"To a temporary holding cell... We don't have any laws regarding insurgents so we can't really give them jail time." Li Zhen added the last part as Yuqi looked confused from hearing the first part.

"You can just put them in jail. No need for holding cell." Yuqi stopped Leyan before she can speak up.

"Okay. But how long are they going to stay in there?" Li Zhen asked.

"Until Xiaoyun come back and decide what to do." Yuqi didn't make the decision herself as she could feel herself getting a little emotional all the sudden.

"I understand." Li Zhen nodded in agreement and went to direct the police.

As Yuqi and Leyan drove back home, Leyan decided to bring it up.

"Why did you stop me earlier?"

"Because I know you are going to suggest something more lenient." Yuqi replied back as she tried to stay calm while driving the car.

"Putting them in a prison cell won't do anything. It'll just make them hate us." Leyan argued back.

"So what should we do? Letting them stay in the holding cell? You and me had both checked the holding cell before. There's no way it can fit that much people.

Beside, they are insurgents. What they had done are treason mom. We can't let them go lightly" Yuqi raised her voice.

"Whatever..." Leyan gave up arguing back.

As the two got back home, Nami and Shuli both were staying up late to hear what the two had to say.

After Leyan explained what happened, Shuli noticed Yuqi's face was frowning the whole time.

"Are you okay Yuqi?" Shuli decided to ask whats up.

"I'm fine. I'm going to sleep now." Yuqi left the living room back to her room.

"What happen to her?" Nami was confused by Yuqi's sudden change of emotions.

"I don't know... She's been like this since she got there and came back." Leyan shrugged her shoulder.

Meanwhile in the police station.

"Hey Xiaoyun, I mean Yueyue, can you help me find the documentation for Ma Tian?" An inspector officer asked.

"No problem." Yueyue looked over in the drawer and handed the document to the inspector.

"By the way Yueyue, why is your name different from your legal name?" The inspector curiously asked as he read the documentation.

"Me and my hus——brother have the same name, so to make it easier I ask people to call me Yueyue instead." Yueyue changed her answer as she felt a little embarrassed to say it.

"Oh right..." The inspector realized what Yueyue meant by it.

"You two finish inspecting the document?" Li Zhen walked over to the two.

"Yep, he seem to had gain massive amount of wealth out of nowhere just like the other militias that joined this coup..." The inspector pointed at the anomaly in the data.

"What did Ma Tian say where he got from the wealth?" Li Zhen asked.

"He said he got it from Chen Gang." Yueyue replied as she was the one who interviewed Ma Tian.

"All the militias who got bunch of food stamps also said they got it from Chen Gang." The inspector added.

"So we need find out how Chen Gang got so much food stamps..." Yueyue mumbled.

"I had sent multiple police cars out trying to find those two that ran away... but its hard to find someone this late at night... by the way you two can go home now." Li Zhen added the last part as the two look extremely tired.

"Thanks boss." The inspector immediately got up and left the office.

"I want to interview Ma Tian one more time. I feel like someone is behind all this. It doesn't make sense that he got all these goods to trade for food stamps." Yueyue brought it up to Li Zhen.

"Yeah, I'm suspecting some agent from a foreign faction is at play here... but why would they try to bring us down?" Li Zhen couldn't find any answer in his mind.
