Chapter 188: Southern District - Old Train Depot
I planned for Zhou Xue to lead the future scouts and rangers I recruited, maybe having Chen Xun and Deng Hua lead the male scouts. Meanwhile, Tang Wei would be the ideal leader for those given the Soldier role.
Mu Qinglan and Shen Yifei would probably be good with Militia and those who fight in close combat, but those girls were too unstable to work with others.
I think that Jiang Roulan might be the best leader for a Police force, or something along those lines, but so far nobody suited that role.
’Something to keep my eye out for I guess...’
The streets turned quieter the farther west we drove.
Trees lined the cracked pavement in patches, their blossoms faded into wilted husks. Trash rustled in the gutters. Street signs hung crooked. Everything felt frozen in time—abandoned lives and forgotten routines lingering like ghosts.
Mu Qinglan handled the Jeep well, even when we hit uneven terrain. Her posture never changed—focused, spine straight, a slight tension in her jaw. She was calm, deadly, and beautiful, blood dried on her sleeves, her grip on the wheel still stained.
I liked that about her.
Behind me, I could hear Yifei shuffling. Her face rested on the cool glass, fogging it with her breath. But when I glanced back, she turned away and pretended to be looking elsewhere.
But her twitching twintails gave her away.
Cute as hell.
