The military police quickly left. Luo Yuan pondered for a moment before he pushed the door open.
There was more than one person inside. Besides Mayor Song, there was another woman. Luo Yuan was stunned by her beauty. She was wearing a black dress that was tight yet fitting. Her chest was tightly wrapped around her breasts, as if they were about to pop out at any time. Her waist was curvaceous, forming a perfect curve.
Under the dress, her buttocks were plump and perky, and a pair of straight, snow-white long legs almost made one's eyes want to directly stick to them. This was a stunner that could accelerate the secretion of male hormones with just a glance. Coupled with her pure and bashful face, it was enough to drive anyone crazy.
"Mr. Luo, please have a seat! It's so good to see you! "Mayor Song pushed the documents on the table aside and greeted Luo Yuan enthusiastically.
"Same here." Luo Yuan quickly looked away and shook hands with Mayor Song with a smile. He then sat down on the sofa.
"It's really shocking that something like this has happened in Desert City. This rebellion has almost wiped out the entire upper echelons. Even Commander Liu and I have been controlled. I can't absolve myself from the responsibility for the huge losses and casualties that have been caused to Desert City," Mayor Song said with a pained expression on his face.
"Mayor Song, you don't have to blame yourself. After all, it's beyond human power. Moreover, things have been settled now. You are the one who has saved the Desert City! "Luo Yuan said with a smile.
Mayor Song's serious face relaxed a little. He waved his hand and smiled bitterly, "Mr. Luo, please don't joke around. You're not a government official, so you don't know the seriousness and sensitivity of this political incident. As long as I'm not held accountable by the upper management, I'm already satisfied.
Luo Yuan was stunned. Mayor Song seemed to be sane and knew the rules of the government. He did not look like he was being controlled. Luo Yuan thought of something and said, "Based on the current situation of Desert City, I believe the upper management will definitely consider it. After all, this is already an occupied area. By the way, Mayor Song, where are the rebels?"
Mayor Song was about to speak, but he suddenly stopped. A woman walked over with two cups of tea in her hands. She smelled delicate and fragrant, "Please have some tea."
After the woman left, Luo Yuan smiled and asked, "I didn't ask just now, but who is this?"
"Secretary Zheng also met with misfortune in this incident. This is my temporary secretary," Mayor Song said with a heavy expression.
Luo Yuan sighed for Secretary Zheng in his heart. At the same time, he was also suspicious of him. Initially, he was 30% suspicious, but now he was 70% sure. Every organization had its unspoken rules. As a government official, he had to pay more attention to his influence and reputation. Before the apocalypse, it was already an unknown rule to have a secretary of the same sex.
Moreover, the other party was a beautiful woman who could bring disaster to the people. He did not believe that a man of power like Mayor Song would be so blinded by lust that he would disregard everything for a woman.
Mayor Song seemed to have sensed Luo Yuan's thoughts and explained helplessly, "Actually, she is my niece. Many people here know her, but there have been too many things going on lately and the number of staff members has been reduced. That's why I asked my niece to help. The real secretary must be an evolved person assigned by the higher-ups. "
…
Luo Yuan walked out of the city hall and looked at the shelter that had returned to normal. He did not know why, but he felt depressed.
Before he left, he purposely asked some people and the result was that this person was indeed Mayor Song's niece.
Everyone's expression was genuine, especially some men who subconsciously revealed expressions of admiration and covetousness. If they were acting, everyone could simply get an Oscar! Luo Yuan looked at them for a long time, but he could not find any flaws in their expressions.
Luo Yuan suppressed his urge to look for Huang Jiahui and the others. The situation was unclear now, and there might be people watching them. If he went to look for them now, it would be the same as exposing his weakness and putting them in more danger.
Luo Yuan avoided looking at them again and returned to the basement.
…
Another two days passed quickly.
For the past two days, he had been in disguise every day and observing from the second underground floor of the shelter. However, he did not find anything strange. Everything seemed to have returned to normal. The evolved humans that were originally imprisoned had also been released one after another.
The next afternoon, there was even a public execution in front of the city hall.
More than 20 criminals were tied up and lined up in a long line. Many of them looked vaguely familiar to Luo Yuan. Some of them were evolved people who had been recruited by the rebels, and some were civil servants who had voluntarily surrendered.
According to the judge, two of them were remnants of the rebels. Luo Yuan immediately looked at the two people in front of the line. They were a man and a woman, but they had different expressions. The woman looked numb and her eyes were empty, as if she had accepted her fate.
The man, on the other hand, held his head high and looked arrogant.
Luo Yuan suddenly looked at the pair of sharp eyes and felt that they looked familiar. He lowered his head and thought for a long time. Suddenly, he remembered where he had seen this person.
At that time, the group of rebels had just entered the shelter. Perhaps to avoid being exposed, they rarely left their rooms during the day. They even stayed in their rooms all day long. One day, Luo Yuan woke up and wanted to go out for a breath of fresh air. Just as he opened the door, he saw the person coming back.
Even though it was just a quick glance before the other party entered the room, his sharp eyes had left a deep impression in his mind.
"How could they really be rebels?" Luo Yuan was suddenly confused. He was initially suspicious of the conspiracy, but now he was a little uncertain. "Could it be that the woman is the hidden mind controller?"
Bang! Bang! Bang! Suddenly, a series of neat gunshots woke Luo Yuan up from his thoughts. He immediately looked and saw corpses lying on the ground, twitching non-stop.
The power of the new firearms was too great, causing the heads of the prisoners to be completely smashed, causing the onlookers to cry out in alarm. Some of the weaker ones had already started to retch.
After turning into corpses, it was obvious whether these people were evolved people or not.
Ordinary people would stop twitching in less than a minute, and their bodies would stiffen to death. However, evolved humans, especially those with physical bodies, had much stronger vitality. Most of them could last up to three minutes, and some of the stronger ones were still twitching even after five minutes.
As for the two rebels that Luo Yuan was concerned about, the woman was already dead. However, considering that she was a mind controller, her body was not much stronger than an ordinary person's, there was no doubt about it.
As for the man, he continued to twitch for more than three minutes even after the others had stopped twitching. Based on his performance, he was indeed an evolved person, and his strength was at least level four.
The corpses were quickly packed into body bags and transported away by trucks. The blood on the ground was also cleaned up by the sanitation workers who quickly rushed over. Except for the smell of blood that still lingered in the air, no one could tell that a massacre had occurred here. When there was no more drama to watch, the crowd dispersed. Some of them were excited by the blood and the massacre.
Luo Yuan frowned as he walked. He felt that something was wrong, as if he had missed out on some important information.
Suddenly, he felt his heart palpitate and a sense of panic rose in his heart. He was shocked and used his strong Sensory Perception to carefully explore the surroundings. However, there was nothing. Just when Luo Yuan thought it was an illusion, the ground suddenly shook violently.
The crowd fell all over the place, and there were screams and cries everywhere in the shelter.
Luo Yuan's body shook slightly with the earthquake. He kept adjusting his body's center of gravity. It was as if his feet were rooted to the ground. No matter how hard the ground shook, his feet did not leave the ground.
Suddenly, there was a loud "kacha" sound, and the ground in front of them suddenly sank, forming a pit with a radius of more than ten meters. A warehouse nearby happened to be in this area. Without the support of the foundation, one of the walls quickly fell off, revealing a large number of machinery and equipment inside the warehouse.
Like a chain reaction, a small crack appeared on the ceiling above him. It quickly expanded, and a large amount of dust and gravel fell. The air was gradually filled with dust.
Luo Yuan looked serious. Desert City was built in the desert, and the soft ground was not suitable for building. It would be fine if there was no earthquake, but if there was an earthquake, no matter how strong the building was, it would not be able to withstand the terrifying pressure brought by the sinking ground.
The earthquake lasted for more than 10 seconds before it gradually subsided. It was a mess.
