#39 - Chapter 39 Yan Zhengping's Misunderstanding
"Dad, let me formally introduce you. This is Dongfang Chen. This base belongs to him," Yan Fangfang said, pointing at Dongfang Chen.
"I'm not interested in knowing who he is. Just tell me, why did you trick me into coming here?" Yan Zhengping asked bluntly, not giving any face.
"Dad, let him explain this matter," Yan Fangfang said, looking at Dongfang Chen.
"Commander Yan, it's meaningless for us to discuss anything with unequal information. So, please allow me to play a video first," Dongfang Chen said without waiting for Yan Zhengping's reply and directly played the video.
Yan Zhengping watched the video, initially unconcerned, but the more he watched, the deeper his frown became.
The video finished, but Yan Zhengping remained silent.
Dongfang Chen wasn't in a hurry and waited for him to digest the information.
After a long while…
"How can you prove that what's said in this video is true?" Yan Zhengping raised his question.
"I can't prove it," Dongfang Chen replied, shrugging his hands.
"Hmph!" Yan Zhengping felt like he was being played and snorted coldly in anger.
"However, I believe Commander Yan still remembers that a few months ago, when the virus had just broken out, many departments of your government received a complete set of virus data," Dongfang Chen prompted.
"That's right!" Yan Zhengping admitted.
"That data was sent out by me," Dongfang Chen said.
"It was you!?" Yan Zhengping stood up in surprise.
They had investigated for a long time at that time but couldn't find the source of the information. He didn't expect it to be here.
"That's right, it was me," Dongfang Chen affirmed again.
If that was the case, then this matter was complicated.
The young man in front of him, who looked overly young, was definitely not simple. The fact had already proven that the virus data leaked a few months ago was correct. Then the video he just watched was likely also true.
Who exactly was this person?
What kind of power was hidden behind him?
How did he or they obtain this information?
Yan Zhengping couldn't understand. These things had exceeded his control.
If such a force really existed, then the current situation would be more complex and severe than he understood.
The feeling of being out of control was unpleasant.
Especially for people like them who held high positions and great power.
"Can we talk now?" Dongfang Chen asked, seeing that Yan Zhengping wasn't speaking.
"What do you want to talk about?" Yan Zhengping asked.
Dongfang Chen opened the safe on the table, took out a vial of antigen serum, and said:
"Let's talk about this first."
"What is this?" Yan Zhengping asked.
"Dad, this is antigen serum!" Yan Fangfang directly answered for Dongfang Chen.
"Bold!" Yan Zhengping instantly exploded upon hearing this, standing up and glaring at Dongfang Chen in angry reprimand.
"Dad, what are you doing?" Yan Fangfang was startled and said reproachfully.
"You guys are really audacious, daring to do such a thing! You go back to me right now, and you're not allowed to go anywhere else!" After saying that, Yan Zhengping pulled Yan Fangfang to leave.
"Dad! What are you doing!" Yan Fangfang shook off Yan Zhengping's hand and questioned loudly.
"What am I doing? You're still asking me what I'm doing? Do you even know what you're doing? The situation is so difficult, and you still dare to do such dirty deeds! Have you wasted all your decades of studying?" Yan Zhengping angrily questioned his daughter.
"Dad, you're thinking too much. This is really an antigen, not a fake!" Yan Fangfang finally understood. Her dad thought they were making fake medicine.
"Do you even believe that yourself? How many scientists in our Hua country are fighting day and night, and they still haven't found a single clue. Just you few amateurs, holed up in this place that never sees the light of day, what can you possibly produce?" Yan Zhengping didn't believe it at all.
"I've already been injected with the antigen, and they three have also been injected. You can check if you don't believe me!" Yan Fangfang was speechless at this self-righteous old fogey.
Yan Zhengping was stunned.
He didn't know what to say.
That's right. Once they were injected, it would be clear after a check. The results of the inspection definitely couldn't be faked.
"You've really been injected?" Yan Zhengping asked again to confirm.
"If you don't believe me, ask them," Yan Fangfang said, pointing to the three people sitting in wheelchairs.
Yan Zhengping looked over.
The three people sitting in wheelchairs nodded foolishly.
"Even so, we still have to go back and do an examination before drawing a conclusion. I only look at the examination results," Yan Zhengping replied.
"Okay, since that's the case, then you can take them back for an examination first! I'll wait here for the results," Yan Fangfang walked to the sofa and sat down with a thud. The meaning was to tell her dad that she wasn't leaving.
"You!" Yan Zhengping was really about to be angered to death. He was out of ideas when it came to this daughter.
What kind of situation was it if the daughter didn't leave, but the old man left first?
"You guys go out and arrange a helicopter to take these three people back to the military region to do an antigen test. By the way, tell the people outside to stay put and wait for orders," Yan Zhengping instructed the other three people beside Yan Fangfang.
The three obeyed the order, pushed the three wheelchairs, and left the base.
"Commander Yan, since you want to wait for the test results, why don't we talk about something else first?" Dongfang Chen said after the six people left.
"What do you want to talk about?" Yan Zhengping asked.
After learning that the virus information from a few months ago was released by Dongfang Chen, Yan Zhengping no longer disdained him as he had when he first arrived.
A prerequisite for communication had begun to exist between the two people.
"Let's talk about this first!" Dongfang Chen took out a Guardian 1 type combat suit.
"What is this again?"
"Combat suit," Dongfang Chen replied.
"Combat suit? What are the effects? Tell me about it," Yan Zhengping said nonchalantly, and sat back on the sofa.
Dongfang Chen simply explained the effects of the combat suit.
The more Yan Zhengping listened, the brighter his eyes became.
This was a good thing.
They had bulletproof vests in their army, but they were all very thick. They also couldn't provide full-body protection, only protecting vital parts. Bulletproof and puncture-proof were okay, but fireproof was not.
The key was that their bulletproof vests were completely useless against zombies. A scratch anywhere on the arms, hands, face, or legs, and the soldier basically declared death.
They didn't know how many soldiers had sacrificed themselves in battles with zombies during this period.
Yan Zhengping had developed a heart condition because of this.
He didn't expect such a pleasant surprise today.
Without hesitation, he had the orderly go out and call in a few people. The soldiers all put on combat suits and conducted one-on-one close combat drills and long-range shooting drills. The results were very good.
"Good, good, good!" Yan Zhengping excitedly said three "goods" in a row, and tears seemed to flash in the corners of his eyes.
Seeing this scene, Yan Fangfang hurriedly walked over and took his arm.
Since she was little, she had never seen her father with tears in his eyes. In her impression, her father was a steel-like man with an indestructible will.
And today, he was actually crying. Although he didn't really cry out.
She was no longer the ignorant girl she used to be, and she understood why her father had tears in his eyes.
He was happy, happy for the soldiers.
"Xiao Chen, how much of this equipment do you have? Name a price, no matter how much, I want it all," Yan Zhengping said, calming down.
With such equipment, he would have the confidence to let his soldiers fight the zombies head-on.
"Commander Yan, I can continue to produce this equipment, but the current stock is not much," Dongfang Chen replied.
"Okay, then you go all out to produce it. However much you produce, I want however much there is," Yan Zhengping said in a big voice.
"Uh… Commander Yan, aren't you going to listen to the price first?" Dongfang Chen reminded.
"Price…" Yan Zhengping was about to say that he could name any price, but suddenly reacted that money was useless now. So he changed his words and asked:
"What do you want?"
"Crystal cores!" Dongfang Chen replied.
"Crystal cores? What are crystal cores?" Yan Zhengping asked.
Sure enough, the virus had been outbreaking for more than 5 months, but the higher-ups hadn't learned about crystal cores yet.
"Dad, it's this," Yan Fangfang said, taking out the crystal core she had obtained earlier from her pocket.
The crystal cores in her hand were not large, after all, they were all tier 1 crystal cores.
Yan Zhengping grabbed a crystal core. It was a blue polyhedron, crystal clear. He looked at it for a long time but couldn't figure out what it was. He asked:
"Is this a stone?"
"It's not a stone. It was taken out of a zombie's body," Yan Fangfang explained.
Immediately, she told everything she knew about the crystal core.
