Yu An watched the other person leave, the smile on her face slowly fading.
"There's a problem."
He turned his head and said to the tiger cubs, "Their reaction is strange."
When this person saw him, not only did he not show any welcome on his face, but he also seemed to want him to leave.
The tiger cub looked in the direction the man had left and asked in a low voice, "Should I go and take a look?"
"Need not."
Yu An remained seated and waited. He said softly, "Let them bring Xie Chiyuan out themselves first."
If these people can hand over Xie Chiyuan, then he's probably overthinking things.
Yu An was waiting in the reception room.
Meanwhile, a man hurried over to report.
"Yu An is in the reception room; he wants to see Xie Chiyuan."
“We can’t drag this out any longer. Yu An has 10 top-tier aberrations. I just saw A05 next to him. As for the other aberrations, I don’t know where he’s hiding them on his person.”
With Yu An and his variant around, they couldn't possibly fool anyone.
As we all know, aberrations are generally bad-tempered creatures.
If they let these mutants lose patience, it will only worsen their situation.
"Go and calm things down for a while longer. I'll talk to Xie Chiyuan again."
"OK."
The door was pushed open.
Sitting inside, Xie Chiyuan didn't turn his head. He simply said, "Have you thought it through?"
"I've thought it through."
The man who came was the boss of the North District. He took a deep breath and said solemnly, "I am willing to tell you everything I know."
He wasn't willing to tell, but rather he had no choice but to.
Because an hour earlier, Xie Chiyuan had overheard his conversation with others.
They were talking about Xie Chiyuan at the time.
He clearly remembered that what he said most often was: "Once the zombies are dealt with, the next one to die will be Xie Chiyuan."
The person next to him asked, "Wasn't the contract for District Four said to be void? The contractors for District East have all changed, so this contract probably doesn't count."
"It doesn't matter if the East District changes its personnel, as long as the replacement is a human and not some monster, it won't affect the contract."
"If it weren't for the zombie outbreak, Xie Chiyuan would have been destroyed long ago."
The person next to him hesitated before refuting him: "Yin Qin from the West District gave all his positions to Xie Chiyuan."
"Do you think he'll still be willing to do it?"
"He will."
He said confidently to the person next to him, "Yin Tan promised that he would kill Xie Chiyuan with his own hands."
The content of the Fourth District Contract is that Xie Chiyuan will be used as a weapon to eliminate the abnormal variants that should not exist.
And after he completed his eradication mission, the last one to be eliminated—
He was someone who had lost all value.
When the topic turned to the fourth district contract, he became surprisingly talkative.
Unfortunately, Xie Chiyuan, who happened to be passing by, overheard all of this.
He never wants to experience that atmosphere again in his life.
In that instant, he felt as if he were being enveloped by layers of death.
Xie Chiyuan was enraged; he even considered killing him.
The reason given for killing him was slander.
Xie Chiyuan believed that what he had just said was a slander against his father, Yin Tan.
The two were at an impasse until the very end, when he said he would show him some evidence.
"We didn't have a clear written contract at the time because of some concerns."
The North District boss, who had just entered, lowered his stance in front of Xie Chiyuan.
He hoped that Xie Chiyuan would not hold his slip of the tongue against him, nor would he take his anger out on him.
His North District now still needs to rely on the West District.
"But we also have a small piece of evidence: we each left a token as proof of our cooperation."
"What Yin Tan left behind was a jade ring."
The leader of the North District took out a jade ring. Xie Chiyuan had seen this jade ring in an old photo of his father.
He returned the jade ring to Xie Chiyuan and said in a low voice the purpose of their original contract: "We were just worried that your existence would make you an enemy of humanity."
"Xie Chiyuan, if you thought from a human perspective, you would understand us—"
"In your eyes, have I never been classified as human all these years?"
Xie Chiyuan joined the army at a young age, and protecting humanity is a mission ingrained in his very being.
He risked his life for humanity for so many years. In the end, it turns out he wasn't even a human being.
The North District boss looked ashen, unsure how to respond.
In the eyes of these insiders, no matter how strong Xie Chiyuan was or how much he was worshipped by ordinary people, they were indifferent.
Anyway, no matter how glorious Xie Chiyuan is, he will eventually die.
"Xie Chiyuan, I know you are a very good person—you are a very good person, you have always been protecting humanity."
“I apologize for what I said before. You can take your anger out on me, but I beg you, don’t take it out on everyone in the North District.”
"They are all still waiting for the vaccine, waiting for their last hope."
The people in the North District dared not let Xie Chiyuan leave, fearing that he would retaliate against the entire North District after he left.
The leader of the North District was still rambling on and on, but at this moment, he was no longer as arrogant as before.
"Xie Chiyuan, as an apology, you can ask me to do anything you want."
"No."
Xie Chiyuan put the jade ring into his pocket, stood up, and said without showing any emotion, "I will verify this."
"This was established a long time ago, when we weren't sure if you would be loyal to humanity. Now that so many years have passed, I actually believe in you."
Xie Chiyuan was too lazy to listen to the nonsense spouted by the North District boss.
He simply asked, "Has Yu An arrived?"
North District Boss: "..."
The North District boss's face stiffened, and he stammered, "You, how did you know he was here?"
“I can hear you at the door.”
The North District boss was completely clueless, but he felt that he was not wronged at all for being overheard.
Xie Chiyuan's hearing is simply incredible.
"Mr. Yu An is in the reception room. I had someone treat him well."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Chiyuan walked out.
Not long after.
Yu An saw Xie Chiyuan come out, and the moment he saw him, his heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.
"Xie Chiyuan!"
He ran over and buried his head in Xie Chiyuan's arms.
Xie Chiyuan seemed to be a beat slow before hugging him back.
Why are you here?
Xie Chiyuan lowered his eyes, looked at the head in his arms, and asked in a low voice.
Yu An nuzzled him and replied, "I called you, but you didn't answer. I was worried about you, so I came to check on you."
Upon hearing this, Xie Chiyuan paused for a moment and explained, "I didn't hear it."
Yu An found it a bit strange.
Xie Chiyuan's phone was not on silent, and he made several calls.
Did Xie Chiyuan miss it? Was he distracted at the time?
Before Yu An could delve deeper, Xie Chiyuan said calmly, "I'm done with my work, let's go back."
Yu An nodded.
He came out carrying the babies on his back, and it would be best to go back quickly before the babies find out.
The two went back together, with Tiger Cub carrying his older brother and his new sister-in-law on his back, without slowing down at all.
The leader of the North District watched their figures, and the fear that had been on his face just moments before gradually faded away.
There aren't that many careless mistakes in this world.
The West District has vaccines, Yu'an (a type of vaccine), and so many A-series aberrations...
In their northern district, there is nothing yet.
Even if things get chaotic in the West End, he can still get the vaccine.
Not only can he get the vaccine, he can also make the West End even more chaotic.
Father and son turned against each other, and both the old and new rulers had their own followers.
This grand show should be performed now while we still can.
