Chapter 179 The Villains and the Police
"Listen! We mean no harm! Our camp is short of people right now, and I thought you needed a safe place!"
The male police officer raised his hands and shouted to Daryl.
"Your camp?"
Daryl frowned. What the male police officer said was credible. Now that Atlanta had become a deserted city of zombies, any larger survivor force might recruit survivors from outside.
Supplies can be easily collected everywhere, and the population will not become a burden. Instead, it can enhance the strength of the camp. Why not gather the survivors?
When resources are abundant, the possibility of people hurting each other is reduced to a minimum. After all, no one will risk their life in exchange for something that is readily available on the street.
Daryl, who already had the vision of a leader, believed the male police officer, but what the male police officer said was tantamount to rebelling against the Heavenly Army. The whole of Atlanta was conquered by the Heavenly Army. What qualifications do you people who live in misery have to learn from the Heavenly Army to expand its power?
"Where is your camp? I repeat, we are the joint base of the survivors of Destiny. You should have seen the leaflets dropped by the planes. Now we are recruiting survivors. Perhaps you can join us."
Daryl took over and said.
"What! Flyer! Please allow me to come closer! Talking like this is really exhausting!"
As Daryl watched, the male police officer slowly approached with his hands raised.
Daryl did not stop them, because he could not see any threat in the other party. At present, the streets were empty, and there was no guarantee that there would be something fishy in the nearby high-rise buildings. It would be more beneficial for everyone to let the male police come as a hostage.
Even with the support of the Fate Army, Daryl is still wary of the outside world, and his mind is always on a game of chess with strangers.
"Thank goodness, we really mean no harm. This is Dawn, our leader."
A white male police officer and a white female police officer came over together, and Carol took the pistols from their waists.
Daryl relaxed a little after seeing this. He looked at the policewoman in confusion and asked, "You are the leader? Why did you come out to look for people? Your camp is very small, right?"
Daryl thought of Zhang Qiang. When the school was first established, it was seriously short of staff and Zhang Qiang would go out to perform tasks.
Dawn has black hair tied in a ponytail and is half a head shorter than Carol, but she looks very capable and does have the makings of a leader.
"The United Front of Destiny Survivors? You boasted about it a lot on your flyers."
Dawn said with a calm expression.
This was somewhat sarcastic, and everyone frowned. The male police officer next to him hurriedly explained:
"Sorry! Dawn has been in a bad mood lately! There was a problem at our campsite, and she meant no harm!"
"She doesn't act like a qualified leader in this respect." Amy walked up to Dawn with a gun in hand and responded with a mocking smile.
"It's you!" Dawn looked at Amy's prosthesis - the dagger - in surprise.
Andrea and Amy stood together, looking at Dawn with serious expressions: "It's us, Dawn. Where's Hansen? How did you become the leader?"
The sisters had remembered Dawn, whom they had met at the Atlanta city hospital after they had been separated at the CDC.
At that time, the hospital was occupied by a group of police officers. A sheriff named Hansen was their leader. Dawn was just an ordinary policeman. Unexpectedly, with the passage of time, Dawn was promoted to a higher position.
However, Dawn seems to be in a lot of trouble.
"So the man named Zhang Qiang is the Komodo dragon? He killed quite a few of us."
Dawn thought of the Asian names on the flyer and immediately had an idea.
Amy didn't respond to Dawn, but raised the UZI submachine gun in her hand. She had never forgotten how her sister Andrea was ravaged by a group of male police officers in order to protect her.
"Darryl." Amy expressed her attitude to Daryl.
Daryl was about to say "hmm" when the male police officer next to him knelt down with a thud. The other party was going to kill him and Dawn! !
"Dawn! Oh my god! Stop showing off! Without that Asian killing Hansen and his men, how could you have gotten to the top?!"
"Everyone in the hospital is trying to stop you! I think we might as well run away! We'll have to fight sooner or later anyway!!"
The male police officer looked angry and said, "If Dawn wants to die, don't take him with him!"
Daryl was overwhelmed by the male policeman in front of him. He glanced at Amy and asked in a low voice: "Do you have a grudge against them?"
Before Amy nodded, Andrea stood up and said, "Actually, Dawn helped us, but she was powerless at the time."
Dawn was still aloof, she didn't want to explain. She had saved many lives with her rules, but now she was facing backstabbing from her colleagues in the hospital. This damn world might as well be destroyed.
"Sister, she is also one of the policemen. Do you know this male policeman? Why don't I kill him first to vent your anger."
Amy extended her prosthetic dagger and put it close to the kneeling policeman's ear.
In winter, the extremely cold touch of the dagger frightened the male policeman so much that he almost wet his pants. He quickly said, "When Hansen was in charge, I was just a cleaner! I didn't do anything!"
Andrea nodded in agreement.
"Hey. You can't kill this person, and you can't kill that person, so what are you going to do? Just inform the principal. He has targeted this camp anyway..."
Amy sighed and retracted her left hand, looking a little annoyed.
Daryl thought for a moment, then turned to look at Carol, who nodded.
Now, the only death of Carol is her hateful husband, and everything she cherishes has not been taken away by the outside world, so Carol is less cruel than in the original plot.
With Carol's consent, Daryl asked Glenn and Maggie to go forward to guard the two policemen, while he went behind the vehicle to contact Zhang Qiang.
"Zhang, we are in trouble."
"Zi...ha! Daryl! It just so happens that we have Warthog fighters! Where are you? I'll send fighters to support you!"
Zhang Qiang on the other end of the intercom was very excited, as if he couldn't wait to show off his new toy.
Daryl swallowed and quickly explained to Zhang Qiang what the search team had encountered.
"I see. They're from the city hospital, right? Tell Zhien to go back and persuade everyone to join us. They must arrive at Collins' base by tomorrow noon. I'll send someone to take over the hospital!"
Upon learning that the search team had encountered an "old acquaintance" of his, Zhang Qiang immediately became serious, and his words were full of command.
"Roger that!"
Daryl lost contact, walked back to the car, and informed Dawn of Zhang Qiang's order.
"You'd better do what he says. Well... You met him a long time ago, so you must know who he is."
Daryl seemed to be giving Dawn some advice, but in fact he was also threatening her.
"I will, can we go now?"
Dawn agreed without thinking, and now she just wanted to get away from this street.
"Please."
Daryl signaled to Carol to return the gun to them, and everyone stared at Dawn and the male police officer's backs until they drove away in the police car.
There were only the search team left on the street. Daryl glanced around sharply, then relaxed and lit a cigarette.
"Today's mission is accomplished. It's time for us to go back." Daryl said to everyone.
"Ah? Don't we need to follow up?" Glenn was puzzled.
"The rest is not our responsibility. It's the soldiers' business."
There was a wise look in Daryl's eyes, as if he had seen through the future.
