I’m the City Lord of the Last Days

Chapter 18: Explanation

[ Mian’an City, Yamu Villa District, Inside of He Family’s Mansion POV ]

Before Wu Jingran and Su Xiner arrived at the He Family Mansion, seven or eight neighbors who had been rescued had already come to visit. According to He Qianshan’s instructions, the housekeeper arranged for all the guests to wait in the lobby on the first floor.

    He Qianshan is going to use the Yamu Villa District as a base to build a survivor base. Of course, he hopes that the inside of the base will be stable first, so today he took the initiative to clean up the zombies in the Yamu Villa District.

    Then they can choose collaborators from among the neighbors who have a keen sense of smell and are aware of his intention, has come to the door.

    However, after all, He Qianshan has not lived in the Yamu Villa District for many years, and he is not very clear about the current situation of the various houses in the villa district, so he asked the housekeeper, Uncle Fang, to first confirm the identity of the people who came to visit.

    Uncle Fang has been in the He family’s old house for many years, welcoming and sending them off. He knows the neighbors very well. He personally checks and directly screens out six people whose identities he cannot confirm, including Wu Jingran and Su Xiner.

    Seeing He Qianshan came back at this time, the housekeeper quickly reported the situation to He Qianshan.

    He Qianshan looked around, sent the housekeeper a nod as a greeting, and then directly pointed out the six people whose identities were doubtful, and asked them why they appeared in the Yamu Villa District.

    Previously, other people waiting in the lobby would exchange a few words with each other from time to time. These six people had already realized that something was wrong after they were faintly excluded. Now they finally knew what was wrong. It’s a new face.

    In a hurry, a couple first explained that the day before yesterday was their marriage anniversary, and in order to pursue romance and new ideas, they booked a villa experience project online.

    Who would have thought that when they woke up at noon yesterday, they would find that the world was in chaos. They had no idea what had happened. They only knew that the other couple who rented the villa together turned into zombies and wandered outside their door. Until they were rescued today, they kept hiding in the room, they dared not leave at all.

    To prove it, the man took out his mobile phone and showed He Qianshan a screenshot of the villa poster event and invitation called “Spend the Night at our Most Romantic Rose Villa”.

    He Qianshan glanced at it and found that the screenshot did not look like a photoshop picture. In addition, he led a team to rescue the couple, and the decoration of the villa did not look like a home, so he nodded to express his approval of their explanation, and then looked at other people.

    An old man in his sixties grabbed his pants uncomfortably. He was really not used to being at the center of everyone’s attention. He stammered and explained that he was hired by the owner of the villa to look after the villa. He has bad legs and feet. He just lives in the villa, he doesn’t go out very much, and he doesn’t deal with the people around him very much.

    At this time, the next door property representative stepped forward and mentioned that he had a vague impression of the old man because the old man would drive a small three-wheeled vehicle for daily travel, which is quite unique.

    He Qianshan nodded and continued to turn to the others.

    Wu Jingran and Su Xiner looked at each other, feeling a little anxious, they couldn’t say that they sneaked into other people’s villas, otherwise people would think of them as thieves. It is easy to leave a bad impression on people, so no, they have to think of another reason.

    At this time, the only underage boy among the six people calmly told them that he came to visit his aunt’s house on weekends. There are three members of his aunt’s family. There is a photo of him at my aunt’s house, they can check his aunt’s house for evidence.

    He Qianshan was noncommittal and turned to look at Wu Jingran.

    Wu Jingran was facing He Qianshan’s dark eyes, those eyes seemed to be able to see through people’s hearts. All of a sudden he felt a lot of pressure. He was so nervous that his head went blank and he couldn’t speak out.

    Su Xiner, who was sitting next to him, didn’t expect Wu Jingran to be so irresponsible, so she had to come out on her own, and explained softly, “We were invited to be tutors for a trial class, but we didn’t expect that the family had an accident…so…”

When speaking, a pair of eyes full of affection looked at He Qianshan, with a charming look of a little girl.

    Wu Jingran looked at Su Xiner in surprise. He originally wanted to say that they were invited by his classmates to visit his home, but when he wanted to say it, he realized that these were all old residents of the Yamu Villa District. If he knew the building they were in the villa doesn’t belong to Song Xingcheng’s family, wouldn’t it be ruined immediately? So he got stuck for a while.

    Su Xiner’s timely rescue made Wu Jingran extremely happy. The school girl’s brains turned quickly, yes, they are here to be tutors, so it’s normal that they can’t tell the name of their employer…

    After hearing this, He Qianshan just glanced at the two of them indifferently and did not continue to question at all. Such gentle handling made Wu Jingran and Su Xiner, who were still a little nervous, relax instantly.

    After the six people whose identities could not be determined by the housekeeper introduced themselves one by one, the remaining 20 people in the hall were all old residents of Yamu Villa District.

    At this time, Zheng Nianhao handed over the information he had sorted out to He Qianshan. There were 76 villas in the entire Yamu Villa District. Except for 12 villas that are vacant and 17 villas whose owners were all reduced to zombies, the remaining 47 villas have survivors inside the building dedicated to the property owner.

    Excluding the six unidentified people and counting the representatives of each property owner, there are a total of 21 representatives present in the hall of the He Family Mansion.

    He Qianshan glanced at the information in his hand, and said casually:

    “What’s your purpose for coming here, you can tell it directly now.”
