The group arrived at a courtyard that resembled their base in Anning Town in terms of structure, but with fewer rooms. There were only two floors and seven or eight houses, with the eastern side already collapsed, leaving only the small half of the western side intact.

The smaller area was advantageous for Fu Shinan as it would make reinforcement much easier. However, her peace of mind was about to be disrupted because she saw Shi Chanter and Bai Lianhua.

“I plan to develop this place into a long-term base. Stay here and don’t wander around,” Ji Zan followed Fu Shinan out of the car and whispered in her ear,

“The base needs you, and Chang’an needs you…”

Fu Shinan remained silent because she was already regretting it!

“Fu Shinan, did you hear what I said?” Ji Zan’s voice grew heavier. Seeing Manyu looking their way, Fu Shinan hurriedly replied, “Ah.”

“That’s good,” Ji Zan joined the others to unload the rice from the trunk.

Manyu leaned over and asked, “What did he say to you just now?”

Fu Shinan replied seriously, “He said he wants to establish this as a long-term base and that we should all work together to build it.”

Manyu clearly didn’t believe her, “Nonsense, why would he say that in such a low voice? What do I do for a living? I’m a screenwriter, can’t I see through this kind of thing?”

Fu Shinan rolled her eyes, “Well, dear screenwriter, have you realized that it’s the end of the world? Can you be serious?”

While the two were talking, Ji Zan and the others had finished handling the food. Ji Zan then said to the group, “Let’s go inside.”

Professor Feng felt a sense of familiarity with the building and couldn’t help but ask, “Is this your house?”

Ji Zan smiled, “I bought it over a decade ago. I thought it had collapsed, but luckily, half of it remained, which is enough for our current stay.”

Professor Feng couldn’t help but sigh, “Old houses are still sturdy. Those new houses wouldn’t withstand anything.”

On the first floor, in a small meeting hall.

Ji Zan said, “Since we all agree to live together, we are a team, and everyone can share their thoughts.”

Professor Feng immediately agreed, “Absolutely, there must be rules to govern us. Especially at this time, we need to stand united.”

Fu Shinan also agreed. With more people, some restrictions were necessary. Otherwise, it would be better to live alone than in chaos.

At this moment, Bai Lianhua and Shi Chan’er entered hesitantly. Upon seeing Fu Shinan, Bai Lianhua’s eyes showed resentment, and she sat beside Shi Chan’er, who kept her head down, lost in her thoughts.

Seeing that everyone was seated, Ji Zan spoke calmly, “Let’s first elect a team leader through a vote.”

Professor Feng spoke first, “I vote for Ji Zan. I’ve known him for a long time, and I completely trust his abilities.”

Following suit, Bai Lianhua and Shi Chant er naturally voted for Ji Zan.

Then it was Sun Han and Xia Dong’s turn. After a moment of hesitation, they also voted for Ji Zan. MO Cheng also chose Ji Zan. Fu Shinan and Manyu were in the minority, but among these people, besides Ji Zan, no one was truly capable of being the team leader.

Ji Zan didn’t say much and went straight to the point, saying, “Since you all have chosen me, I have the responsibility to protect everyone’s safety. Based on the patterns of the zombies, there will inevitably be a large-scale action after the rain. Tonight is crucial. So, a few men should repair the damaged areas first, while the women will be responsible for cooking, using a rotating schedule. During the day, the men will go out to search for supplies, and one person will stay behind to guard the base every day! I hope everyone can unite and refrain from attacking each other. If there are troublemakers, they will be expelled from the team.”

Bai Lianhua spoke in a coquettish voice, “Brother Ji, what should I do if I can’t cook?”

Shi Chanter immediately added, “I don’t know how to cook either.”

Manyu couldn’t help but be speechless, “You can learn if you don’t know. And if you don’t want to eat, you don’t have to cook! After all, they don’t eat, why should they be the ones cooking?”

Bai Lianhua became furious, “Who are you to stop us from eating? We’ve always been with Brother Ji! Who do you think you are?”

Manyu laughed, “Captain Ji, what’s the deal about? Do those who have been following you have special privileges? Just a few words of ‘brother’ entitle them to others’ care?”

Ji Zan replied coldly, “There are no special privileges!”

Fu Shinan also spoke, “I agree with Mr. Ji’s proposal. If we want to survive, we must pay the price and make an effort. If you dear brother Ji is willing to take care of you, you can rely on him, but there’s no reason for us to take care of you too! After all, we don’t owe you anything.”

Shi Chan’er glanced at Ji Zan and remained silent.

However, Bai Lianhua stood up in anger, “Fu Shinan, just because Brother Ji brought you back, you think you….”
