105: Can you lure them over here? I want to go fishing.

The roar of armored vehicles could be heard from outside the Shelter, followed by a long convoy of vehicles loaded with boxes of goods—all food that Qiu Wuhui had brought back.

Iron Dude held a glass bottle with an orange-yellow liquid sloshing inside. He took a couple of steps, then took a sip. The zombie's walking posture was almost normal now; he had likely evolved quite a bit during this period.

At this moment, Tian Ming emerged from the interrogation room with Huang Qiusheng, who respectfully followed behind Tian Ming. Carbon fiber shackles were still on his feet.

"Brothers, move the supplies back. Send some of the pre-made dishes to the Shelter's cafeteria and have Sister Zhizhi prepare a delicious meal. I'm treating everyone to a feast, with plenty of beer and peanuts!" Qiu Wuhui said excitedly. This trip had been fruitful; he had found a food warehouse and brought back ten full trucks.

"Qiu Wuhui!" Tian Ming called out.

Qiu Wuhui, who was busy, looked up. Seeing his boss call him, he quickly put down his work and ran over. When he saw Huang Qiusheng behind Tian Ming, Qiu Wuhui frowned.

"Boss, this person looks a bit unfamiliar. I don't think I've seen him before."

"He's an Ability User, Huang Qiusheng. He came to cause trouble, but I dealt with him. Now he has pledged allegiance to our Shelter," Tian Ming said lightly.

Qiu Wuhui nodded slightly, then added, "Boss, this was a huge harvest! We got ten tons of canned goods and pre-made dishes. They're all within their shelf life."

"Very good. What's the situation in the city now? Are there still many zombies?" Tian Ming asked.

"Many, but most are frozen stiff. However, the mutated ones aren't afraid of the cold. This time, with Meng Dong providing security, the heavy machine gun was incredibly effective. One sweep directly tore those guys apart."

At this moment, Iron Dude also walked over, the orange-yellow liquid in his bottle almost empty.

"Roar, roar..." Iron Dude seemed to be saying something.

Qiu Wuhui smiled and said, "I gave him some iron chloride water. He's very happy."

Tian Ming smiled faintly and said, "I can understand what he's saying."

Qiu Wuhui paused, then laughed, "Oh, I forgot. He's always been the boss's pet. I'll go back to work now, Boss!"

Huang Qiusheng meekly asked, "Boss, I've already pledged my loyalty to you. I'm still wearing handcuffs and leg irons. Isn't that a bit too..."

"Too what? Human hearts are unpredictable. How do I know what you're thinking? What if you're only pretending to obey? What if you run away?"

Tian Ming wasn't foolish. Huang Qiusheng couldn't be considered one of their own yet. He was merely bait, bait to lure the Ability Users from the Huaxin Pharmaceutical Company Shelter.

Unlike Sun Wentao and the other Ability Users, they had already come to regard the Shelter as their home.

Huang Qiusheng was different; if he escaped, he would have a better place to go. Why would he stay here as Tian Ming's subordinate?

However, Tian Ming couldn't constantly watch Huang Qiusheng. He looked at Iron Dude, who was drinking the iron chloride solution, and smiled faintly, saying, "Iron Dude, I have a task for you."

Upon hearing this, the zombie immediately straightened up, a serious expression appearing on his metallic face.

"Master, just give the order if there's anything you need," Iron Dude roared.

"For this period, you and Dr. Qiao are not to go anywhere. Help me keep an eye on him. If he tries to escape and leaves the Shelter, you can eat him. He's a Third-class ability user, which will be very beneficial for your evolution."

Huang Qiusheng's expression became quite a sight. What was this? Being watched by two evolved zombies?

His heart trembled. He had originally planned to escape when Tian Ming was less vigilant. But after Tian Ming's words, Huang Qiusheng immediately abandoned the idea of escaping.

If he were caught, it would be a dead end.

"Master, don't worry, I will definitely watch him closely," Iron Dude roared.

Handing the terrified Huang Qiusheng over to Iron Dude, Tian Ming touched his earpiece. The situation had changed, and he temporarily didn't plan to leave the Shelter. Huang Qiusheng's failure to return would inevitably draw the attention of that Shelter. If they could be contacted, it would be even better, as Tian Ming could then go fishing.

"Mengqi, come here, to the Central Building Plaza. Call Liu Chuan over too, right next to this helicopter," Tian Ming said into his headset.

"Okay, Boss, coming right over!"

Before long, two figures appeared in the Central Building Plaza: Zhang Mengqi and Liu Chuan.

"Boss, we're here."

Tian Ming nodded slightly and said, "Liu Chuan, you know how to fly this helicopter, right?"

Liu Chuan glanced at it, patted his chest, and said, "I can fly it. This is a civilian model, so it's easier to pilot. Boss, the helicopter pilot refused to work for us; his wife and children are still in the original Shelter. I had the Enforcement Team lock him up to let him calm down."

"Let him be. Come on, get on the plane and take me for two loops," Tian Ming said, already climbing into the helicopter, with Zhang Mengqi following him.

Liu Chuan skillfully pulled open the helicopter door and sat in the pilot's seat. Liu Chuan buckled his seatbelt, freeing one hand to pull up the side lever.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz..." Liu Chuan started the helicopter, a tremendous roar erupted, and then the helicopter began to ascend.

"Maintain this altitude, and first fly two circles around this plaza." Following Tian Ming's voice, Liu Chuan began to control the aircraft according to his request.

In the plaza, many people looked up at the sky, where a helicopter was circling.

"You haven't flown a plane in so long, but you look very skilled," Tian Ming said.

"Not at all. This helicopter's auxiliary piloting system is very smart; it doesn't require much intervention from me at all. It's even simpler than playing a game." Liu Chuan used to fly military helicopters, so flying a civilian one was no challenge for him.

The helicopter circled twice, then slowly descended. At this point, Zhang Mengqi was still in a daze. Did her boss call her over just to take a plane ride?

"Boss, this... you called me over just to let me ride a plane?" Zhang Mengqi asked with a puzzled expression.

Tian Ming waved his hand and said, "Of course not. Look, can you find a way to contact Huang Qiusheng's Shelter? I'm planning to lure them over. I assume there should be something like a radio on this plane, right?"

Liu Chuan said, "The communication base stations are all without power now, so civilian aviation communication is basically useless. Satellite communication probably won't work either; I just tried it, and the communication equipment that comes with this plane is just for show."

Zhang Mengqi smiled and shook her head, saying, "They must have considered this issue when they came out, so there must be shortwave communication equipment on the plane. You can look for it."

Tian Ming glanced at Liu Chuan and said, "See, this is what you call professional. What are you standing around for? Go look for it."
