Wenren Lei Meimei munched on a sweet potato and said, "I forgive you."

Wenren Yu smiled and ruffled his hair: "Thank you for your magnanimity, young master."

Fu Yan asked, "What's your relationship with Area 11?"

Wenren Yu pinched out a small dumpling shaped like a gold ingot and placed it in Wenren Lei's palm for him to play with. He said, "After the zombie horde passed through Weicheng, I went back but couldn't find Xiao Lei. I was near Qinggang City. While continuing to look for Xiao Lei, I cooperated with Gu Zhengming and another friend to build a small base, which later gradually developed into District 11."

"The money-spending boy is actually my brother." Wenren Lei finally pressed the dumpling wrapper to her satisfaction and began to carefully wrap dumplings, just like Xiao Yuanbao.

Wenren Yu chuckled: "This way, you have a wide network of contacts, making it easier to find people."

"But I had someone inquire about you in District 11." Wenren Lei kneaded the dough, her hands covered in meat filling. "Your registration office said there's no one named Wenren Yu in District 11."

Wenren Yu patiently explained, "Even within the base, very few people know the base commander's name."

Wenren Lei's expression changed, and she chuckled, "My base commander brother."

Wenren Yu said, "I'm going back to District 11 with my brother tomorrow."

Wenren Lei pinched out a strangely shaped lump and carefully placed it among the other pretty dumplings: "I'm going to pick up my friends and go together."

Wenren Yu was surprised: "You have a boyfriend?"

Wenren Lei stretched out her hand, spreading her five fingers: "Five, brothers and sisters who would risk their lives for each other."

Wenren Yu nodded repeatedly: "Good, you're getting better and better."

Fu Yan pulled out a wet wipe to clean Wenren Lei's hands and casually asked, "Among the high-ranking officials of the various bases, have you ever heard of the name Lan Ting? He should be from Weicheng."

Wenren Yu shook her head: "There's no such person in the upper echelons of District 11. Is he a very important person? I can ask other bases."

Wenren Lei, with two streaks of flour on her face, looked at Fu Yan: "Why are you still asking about Lan Ting? Didn't we take down the research institute?"

Fu Yan raised his hand to wipe his face: "I suspect he's not from the research institute." He explained to Wenren Yu and Gu Zhengming, "After Leilei and I ran into Lan Ting on the black market, we started being assassinated, and it's been going on ever since. The strangest thing is that Lan Ting seems to know that the person we're looking for is you, Wenren Yu."

Wenren Lei leaned close to Wenren Yu and said softly, "Brother, is it because you've made enemies everywhere that your weak and helpless younger brother is being hunted down?"

Wenren Yu smiled and said, "I'm so sorry."

Gu Zhengming rolled out dumpling wrappers with a rolling pin: "If you also have the surname Lan, you can ask Lan Peiyou; he's also from Weicheng."

This is a bit complicated. Fu Yan asked, "Is it the friend who saved you and helped you build the base?"

"Yes." Wenren Yu pondered for a moment, looked at Gu Zhengming, and said, "Don't ask him yet, lest we alert them. Let's see how things go when the next group of assassins comes."

Gu Zhengming met his gaze: "You suspect it's related to him?"

Wenren Yu frowned: "I'm not sure. But he did go out some time ago, it's possible he went to the black market."

Gu Zhengming asked, "When did you two become enemies?"

Wenren Yu shook her head: "I want to know too."

After listening to their conversation, Fu Yan said quietly, "Actually, it's not that complicated. There should be very few people with the ability to deprive others of their breathing. He was the captain of the first assassination squad, and there was also a wind element ability user in the squad."

Wenren Yu looked at Gu Zhengming and said, "You are in charge of the dispatching of the field operations team."

Gu Zhengming recalled for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Field Operations Team One."

Wenren Yu was stunned for a moment, her hand unconsciously clenching, the stainless steel spoon being squeezed into the shape of a paperclip.

Fu Yan said calmly, "If that's the case, then Lei Lei and I killed at least ten squads, more than fifty people. Have you received any casualty reports?"

"No." Gu Zhengming's face was very ugly. He raised his hand and took the spoon from Wenren Yu's hand, gently patting the back of his hand.

Ten squads were wiped out, including at least twenty people with superpowers. Lan Peiyou didn't mention a word about such a significant loss to him.

"Even he betrayed me." Wenren Yu gritted his teeth, suppressing his rapidly rising anger. He looked at Gu Zhengming, slightly out of breath, "In the months we've been away, he's practically taken over the base, hasn't he?"

Gu Zhengming reached out and held his shoulder, soothing him in a low voice: "Don't get too excited, calm down. The people at the base are just carrying out a mission, they may not know the details."

Wenren Yu closed her eyes and took a deep breath: "If he has a grudge against me, he can just come and confront me directly. Why go to such lengths to hunt down Xiao Lei?"

Wenren Lei shrugged innocently: "I really don't know this guy. But those assassins said it's only right that I pay for my crimes with my life, so I guess I killed someone from his gang."

Looking at Wenren Lei, Wenren Yu felt an overwhelming sense of guilt. Someone in his base was using his resources and plotting to kill his brother.

Wenren Lei could tell at a glance that her brother was blaming himself. He made an extremely ugly dumpling and held it up to Wenren Yu: "I forgive you, and I'm rewarding you with a well-made dumpling."

Wenren Yu's anger subsided, and she reluctantly accepted the dumplings: "Okay, thank you."

Gu Zhengming said gently, "Don't be angry. You and Xiaojindou go and rest. I'll call you when dinner is ready."

"Hmm." Wenren Yu turned around to wash her hands and went upstairs alone.

Wenren Lei swung her fist at Gu Zhengming, fiercely warning, "If you call that name again, I'll break your front teeth!"

"Ahhh, I was so scared." Gu Zhengming walked to the sink and quickly washed the vegetables, adding, "Ahhh, I'll never do it again, never again."

Fu Yan smiled helplessly, took out a large bag of snacks and handed it to Wenren Lei: "Go play with your brother."

"Hmm~" Wenren Lei carried a bag of snacks and swayed as she walked up to the second floor.

The second floor was switched to open-air terrace mode by A1-V, with warm yellow light strips on the ground. Wenren Yu leaned back in a recliner and closed her eyes to rest.

Wenren Lei, clutching snacks, leaned forward and asked:

"elder brother?"

"Bro?"

Why are you ignoring me?

"Asleep?"

"Brother, brother, brother, brother..."

Wenren Yu woke up with a start, slowly opening his eyes. Wenren Lei's fair and delicate face loomed large before him. He chuckled helplessly, "I wasn't asleep."

Wenren Lei was delighted and dumped all the snacks onto Wenren Yu's lap: "Here, have some, don't be angry."

After saying that, he dragged over another recliner, placed it close to Wenren Yu, lay down, grabbed a bag of onion rings from Wenren Yu's lap, opened it, and while chewing, advised her in an old-fashioned manner: "Getting angry is bad for your health."

Wenren Yu rested one hand behind her head and turned her head to look at him: "Eat less, dinner will be served later."

Wenren Lei said confidently, "Today is the New Year."

Wenren Yu chuckled lightly: "Alright, eat up."

"Hehe." Wenren Lei let out a satisfied, silly laugh.
