The Walking Dead: Starting as a Cowboy

Chapter 221 Information Gap

Caesar pinched Amy's cheek, making her mouth form an "O" shape, but she couldn't say anything.

Caesar lowered his head and kissed Amy's lips.

It's very soft and sweet.

Caesar opened his eyes and looked directly at Amy. "Amy, you don't need to feel sorry."

"The reason I'm in such a hurry is that I want to develop Huangshi as soon as possible and strengthen myself."

"That way I can protect you, protect our children. I don't want my children to grow up in a place where there are always external threats."

"This is something I did willingly, and I do it gladly."

Caesar smiled, his eyes gentle and full of love. Amy felt weak and hot all over. Her eyes sparkled, and she reached out to pinch the hem of Caesar's clothes, leaning forward until she was pressed against his body.

"Okay, I understand."

Amy spoke in a coquettish tone, clearly aroused, her body twisting and entwining around Caesar, her hand gently caressing his chest.

His hand slipped to a certain spot, but Caesar caught it.

"Hmm~ what's wrong?" Amy looked up at Caesar groggily.

Caesar didn't speak, but raised his chin.

Amy turned around and saw Beth standing in the doorway, looking at the two of them timidly.

Seeing that both of them were looking at her, she turned around, unsure whether she should leave or not.

"Come here," Caesar said.

"Ah—this, this isn't appropriate." Beth wanted to maintain her composure, but she turned around to face Caesar, her eyes gleaming with eagerness.

Caesar smiled and bent down to hug Amy's legs.

"what!"

With a gasp from Amy, she reached out and hugged Caesar's neck, and was carried by Caesar toward Beth.

"Let's go back inside."

As he spoke, Caesar picked up Beth in the same manner.

On the bed, Amy and Beth looked at each other with shyness in their eyes. Caesar, thick-skinned, ignored their reproachful looks and pounced on them.

It was a night packed with information.

Many residents have noticed that the high-ranking officials in Huangshi all seem to be preoccupied, always thinking about something, and their worried expressions indicate the importance of this matter.

The residents couldn't help but ask, and without exception, they all received a negative answer.

Not only did they not tell them the answer, but they also denied their concerns, which made the residents even more confused.

This feeling permeated the entire town of Yellowstone in just one morning.

When the higher-ups realized what had happened, they quickly concealed their emotions and deliberately maintained a positive and optimistic demeanor.

This internal and external inconsistency in their emotions made them particularly uncomfortable, and also made them admire Caesar even more.

In their view, Caesar had been carrying the entire Yellowstone forward, and he knew the specifics of CRM, so the pressure he was under was immense.

Among the higher-ups, especially Rick, his admiration for Caesar was arguably the highest in Yellowstone.

When Caesar arrived at the council chamber, Carol greeted him and nodded solemnly at him.

Caesar smiled awkwardly and nodded in return, seemingly puzzled.

Then, Carroll walked away.

Caesar walked to his office, encountering only normal residents along the way, who were simply greeted.

On the contrary, the high-ranking officials' admiring and solemn demeanor unexpectedly made Caesar very uncomfortable.

Not long after Caesar entered his office, Amy arrived.

Amy's face was flushed, and she looked charming; it was clear she had a very happy night.

She entered with a smile, brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, and stood in the doorway, not coming over, just watching Caesar.

That look made Caesar uneasy, and he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with you?"

"Not enough yet?"

"Oh dear~ that's not it." As soon as Caesar mentioned this, Amy became extremely embarrassed. She quickly stepped forward and covered Caesar's mouth with her lips.

"When I came over just now, I talked to Carol and Beth, and do you know what I heard?"

"What?" Caesar asked.

"They think you're working too hard." Amy's eyes lit up, her gentle tone carrying a hint of excitement.

Caesar knew her too well; he knew she was up to something when she said that, so he feigned curiosity and asked, "Why do you say that?"

Amy chuckled, "Because of the meeting you led yesterday, their admiration for you is like a surging river, endless and boundless."

Listening to Amy's various boasts, Caesar found it amusing. He reached out and ruffled Amy's hair, looking directly into her bright eyes, and asked, "Do you really think so?"

"Of course," Amy replied without hesitation.

She straightened her back, completely convinced of what she was saying.

Caesar's smile deepened. "Alright, then tell me the real reason."

"Uh—" Amy then realized that Caesar had seen through her, so she had no choice but to tell the truth.

Caesar nodded after listening. "That's normal. As long as they recover their mindset quickly, that's fine."

"Oh, by the way, have someone go and fetch Michonne and Daryl. I need to speak with them."

"Okay, sure." Amy obediently got up and left the office.

Before long, Daryl and Michonne appeared at the door of Caesar's office.

Knock knock knock. "Come in."

The two stepped into the office, and Daryl, as if he were at home, casually sat on the sofa and picked up some snacks from the coffee table to eat.

Michonne wasn't used to it yet. She glanced at Daryl a couple of times and stood there by herself.

"Come, sit down too."

With a friendly smile, Caesar invited Michonne to sit on the sofa.

"Well, I called you two over because I want to move up the positions I'm assigning you."

Upon hearing Caesar mention this, Daryl became interested and quickly stuffed everything in his hand into his mouth, casually wiping the crumbs off his hands. "Is it the position we talked about last time?"

"Yes." Caesar nodded.

Michonne was completely unaware of this; her already serious face showed no surprise or curiosity.

Caesar continued, "The current situation is that Yellowstone's main objective has shifted; we originally intended to use the prison as an outpost to launch an attack on Atlanta."

"But because of CRM, we can't launch a full-scale attack on Atlanta, so I've chosen to head north."

Caesar took out a map of the United States from under the coffee table. Holding a marker, he drew a map starting from Atlanta and extending all the way to a place in Virginia.

The marker made a dot in Virginia. "I want you to go here."

Daryl frowned. He had no problem going out on missions, and he could go alone, but—

Why Virginia?

Michonne's eyes also held a hint of doubt.

Caesar said, "Because of the information."

"information?"

"That's right. There's a force in Virginia called the Salvation Army. They're powerful, but not powerful enough. We can take them down and it will be very beneficial."
