After the groups gathered back in the reception hall, they reported their findings. There was unanimous agreement that something strange had happened.

“It doesn’t make sense! If they suddenly decided to leave, no matter how rushed it was. They should’ve taken their weapons along, right? Otherwise did they really just vanish into thin air? Human evaporation? That is just outright scary! Why are we even here? We shouldn’t stay where they vanished from!” Treadmill started throwing out speculations fearfully.

“Stop with the reckless speculations, you are creating a horrible mood!” Han GuangMing urged Treadmill.

“Did I? I was only speaking out about my analysis to help Elder Liu ponder. Do you really feel like I am creating a terrifying atmosphere? If you feel terrified of that, how can you be such cowards?” Treadmill asked everyone in his surrounding. He wasn’t afraid to show his discontent with Han GuangMing.

“Elder Liu, I suggest we head back into the car. Everything is quite strange onboard Serenity. Plus, Treadmill exposed our location, so I don’t think anything good can happen from this,” HuJun suggested to Elder Liu.

Treadmill angrily drilled his gaze into HuJun’s back. Elder Liu had almost forgotten that point already, but it seemed HuJun was willing to throw him under the bus.

“Oh no! Both our vehicles are missing!” shouted Zhao Meng, as he was closest to the window. He had shone his light out of the nearby window to check on the vehicles.

Right as Liu Gan heard the words leave Zhao Meng’s mouth, he dashed forward to the main cabin doorway. Opening up the doorway and exposing himself to the elements, Liu Gan saw that the two vehicles were gone. It wasn't parked at the dock. It was exactly like what had happened to the people onboard the ship, they vanished into thin air!

Others followed Liu Gan into the rain to verify the missing vehicles. They felt uneasy.

With the clouds rumbling, lighting flashes brightened up the sky momentarily. Then a lightning struck at the highest freight container. The concentrated electrical power created sparks that caused an explosion, which toppled over the freight container. The freight container rolled down near Liu Gan’s group.

Quickly, everyone returned back through the main cabin door, then locked it shut from the inside.

“No need to be frightened! According to my previous experiences, a Variant Zombie is behind this! It won’t show itself, which means that it is afraid of us. As long as we don’t panic or go anywhere alone, it won’t have a chance to divide and conquer!” Han GuangMing shouted to everyone nearby. He was doing his best to play his role of squad leader and obtain the trust of Elder Liu.

“The feeling is as if another base had set us up, otherwise why would the vehicles be missing?”a few members countered Han GuangMing’s statement.

“Well then blame Treadmill for exposing our location,” HuJun threw out the words out there.

“Are you done?” snarled Treadmill, getting aggravated with intentions to murder.
