Chapter 140: Splitting up into Groups
Earlier when Shi Guozhong had driven the car, the car braking noise had been extremely piercing, if there really were any monsters, it was most likely that they would have exposed themselves. However, it seemed that it was quiet all around and what Zhou Huakang said did seem to make some sense, there were likely no monsters within the vicinity of the hospital.
“Hey, Zhou Huakang’s words seem to make sense.” It was rather rare that Qin Jiagui would agree with his thinking as he continued: “The hospital is indeed quite large, let’s just split up into groups to better explore the place, even if we meet with any danger, we can scream to alert the others. This would be better than slowly searching, we can’t possibly waste an entire day here.”
“That’s right, that’s right.” Zhou Huakang secretly nudged Li Dong, signalling to him with his eyes.
Li Dong looked over at him and immediately knew what he was up to as he acquised as well.
Su Yu frowned slightly, splitting up to act would drastically increase the danger, however, Qin Jiagui and Zhou Huakang did make some sense, this hospital was simply too big, buildings could be seen all around and if they were to carefully comb every inch, that would indeed take up a lot of time. Splitting into a few groups was not a bad idea, looking at the peaceful surroundings, the likelihood of monsters being present was indeed quite low.
Although Su Yu did not feel great about the plan, he did not reject the idea.
Noticing Su Yu’s silence, Qin Jiagui immediately acted: “So we’ll go with this plan, everyone split up into your own groups, don’t move about haphazardly, each group must choose a destination and shout if you spot anything, if nothing is found, we’ll gather back at the parking lot.”
Ma Ziye pondered for a moment before adding: “For safety, each group should have at least a tier two or tier three dark iron warrior, don’t you think that would be better?”
Qin Jiagui laughed: “That idea seems workable, alright, the large surgical building no.1 will be handled by myself and Niping, the rest of you can freely choose, let’s leave the food out here with someone to guard it.”
Su Yu noticed Jade placing Lei Rui down on the ground as he spoke up: “I’ll stay behind, Jade, you stay behind as well.” He seemed to feel a strange danger in the place, however he did not voice out his concern. He did not wish for Jade to take any risks, thus coming to such a decision.
Jade nodded, it was pointless to act brave.
Zhang Zhongmou then spoke: “Qin Jiagui, will the two of you be alright?”
Qin Jiagui had a faint smile on his face: “That building isn’t too big, Yuan Niping and I will be sufficient, we’ll make a move first.” Pulling Yuna Niping’s hand as he hurriedly moved towards the building.
Yuan Niping seemed to have guessed something as her face was tinged with a shade of red, seemingly more alluring.
Looking at the backs of Qin Jiagui and Yuan Niping, Zhang Zhongmou called out: “Hey, who’s willing to team up with me.”
Zhao Shichang also rotated his left arm before adding: “Who’s willing to come along with me?”
Liu Zheng lifted his hand: “Brother Zhang, I’ll go with you, you must look after me.” before gingerly running over to Zhang Zhongmou’s side.
Zhou Huakang pulled Li Dong as he walked before Wang Xiang and Mao MingZhu while laughing: “The two of you will be grouped up with us, let’s go check out the general medicine on the second floor.”
Mao Mingzhu’s expression changed, Zhou Huakang and Li Dong had an altercation with Wang Xiang previously, now that they wanted to form a group, it was clear that they had ill intentions. She was planning to reject that but Wang Xiang actually nodded: “Alright.”
Zhao Shichang walked over as he exclaimed: “Zhou Huakang, are the two of you planning to create trouble? The four of you will form a group with me, let’s head out together.”
Zhou Huakang’s expression changed as he cursed in his heart “This dog is really annoying”. He suddenly smiled before replying: “Our group has sufficient people, too many people is a waste of resources.”
Zhao Shichang harrumphed, he was a tier two warrior while Zhou Huakang was only at tier one, he simply did not care for his views as he indifferently replied: “The four of you don’t have a single tier two amongst you, that’s simply too dangerous. I’m actually being considerate for all of you, let’s go together.” He was thinking that if they created any trouble, he would have to teach them a good lesson.
Ma Ziye walked to Su Yu’s side as she whispered: “Zhou Huakang is clearly forming the group to cause trouble, aren’t you gonna meddle?”
A faint smile appeared on Su Yu’s face as he calmly said: “They are all causes for distress within the group, is there a need to care about them? Zhao Shichang has actually created more trouble.”
Ma Ziye was stunned, it was only now that she understood Su Yu’s plan. Such a group was fine if they did not create trouble, if anything happened, one or two people dying would not really affect the group.
In reality, whether it be Li Dong, Zhou HUakang or Wang Xiang, they were indeed people who could result in instability within the group, them fighting each other was something that Su Yu was more than happy to see.
Su Yu turned to look at Ma Ziye before suddenly spreading his hands: “Do you think I’m cruel?”
Ma Ziye thought for a moment before sighing as she shook her head: “I’m also clear that Wang Xiang cannot possibly coexist with Zhou Huakang, there must be a conclusion. For Li Dong and Zhou Huakang, the earlier they get rid of Wang Xiang the better. If he advances further, he may cause their deaths. If we stop them now, we are also helping Wang Xiang in dealing with them. I understand what you’re trying to do.”
Li Dong and Zhou Huakang had walked out of the school together with them but were only at tier one, it could be seen that their aptitude was really lack lustre. As for Wang Xiang, he was a hooligan and his eyes had a vicious light in them, he was unrestrained and if he advanced any further, he would definitely act viciously against them.
Su Yu calmly continued: “Wang Xiang has long regarded Li Dong and Zhou Huakang as our comrades, his hate doesn’t only remain with Li Dong and Zhou Huakang, it also extends to us. Such a person cannot be allowed to grow.”
Ma Ziye suddenly understood, Su Yu had steeled his heart to let Wang Xiang die here, this was why he had not acted out to stop the formation of the group.
If Su Yu made use of his individual strength, he could easily take care of Wang Xiang. However, this would make the newcomers that had come together with Wang Xiang feel estranged, causing the group to be filled with distrust, that could potentially cause the group to eventually fall apart.
They could certainly kill off all the newcomers together with Wang Xiang, however, they were unwilling to do so unless it was absolutely necessary, this was their moral baseline.
Only Wang Xiang who was such a clear threat had to be exterminated.
Zhao Shichang obviously did not know what Su Yu and Qin Jiagui were planning, he had thus acted to prevent any further commotion from occurring. By then he would be able to teach them a lesson, such a feeling made him feel awesome.
Understanding Su Yu’s intentions, Ma Ziye softly said: “Then let me join their group as well.”
