Moreover, he also knew something about Cannon's interrogation. Under such cruel interrogation techniques, no one dared to tell the truth.

Li Yu ignored him and continued talking to himself.

"The reason why Zhang Shunzi and others did this was because they had objections to the Da Zhangshu base system. They were not satisfied with being just members of the outer city. They felt that there was no hope of becoming members of the inner city, so they planned to overthrow the inner city.

They secretly prepared guns and at the same time tentatively recruited people to join them to build up strength.

It's just... this plan was discovered just after it started. Zhang Shunzi originally wanted to win over Wang Cheng, but Wang Cheng reported it."

After Li Yu finished speaking, he glanced at He Chao.

"Sit down."

The expression on He Chao's face was extremely complicated, and the emotions in his heart were extremely complicated.

Guilt, anxiety, grievance, sadness, and most of all, anger.

After all, Zhang Shunzi and the others were also people from the outer city. They followed him before joining the Zhangshu Base, but he couldn't find out that they had any rebellious intentions. They were even operating secretly, but he didn't know it at all! Dereliction of duty!

The anxiety was because he was worried that the city lord would not believe him. Combined with the fact that the city lord just asked him to go to the north,

Isn't that just being an expatriate? In his opinion, it was obvious that he didn't believe in his performance.

What makes him sad and aggrieved is that he has no rebellious intentions at all. On the contrary, he is extremely loyal to Li Yu. What could be more painful than a person who is loyal to him but does not believe in himself.

And the anger is because of what Zhang Shunzi and others did!

"City Lord, I...can't sit down, can you please let me stand? I feel better standing."

He Chao was crying and laughing at the same time, and begged Li Yu.

Li Yu saw that he could not sit still, he was so excited.

"City Lord, you must believe me, I...I, He Chao, have no other thoughts. I told you that when you saved me and my daughter, my life was yours.

"

He Chao continued excitedly: "If I have second thoughts, I would be..."

"If you don't believe it, I can prove it to you and dig out my heart..."

"Hahahahaha."

Li Yu was suddenly amused by his behavior.

"You are so old, and you have managed the outer city for so long, but you still manage it well. If you say such childish and ridiculous things, keep your voice down, others will laugh at you later."

No matter how experienced a person is, no matter how steady he is in dealing with things, if his emotions reach an extreme, all experience and experience will disappear, and he will speak like a child.

He Chao's nervousness suddenly relaxed a lot when he heard Li Yu talking with a smile.

He also realized how ridiculous what he just said was, and restrained his emotions.

A scholar dies for his confidant. The feeling of being misunderstood and not understood is extremely painful.

"I don't care about other people's opinions, I care about what you think, City Lord."

"Ahem."

Li Yu waved his hand, feeling a little strange after hearing this sentence.

Weirdly disgusting.

"I believe you, that's why I let you go to the north."

"After all, people like Zhang Shunzi, Jia Tan and others used to follow you, but now they have made such mistakes, which will easily make others think of you. In short, it is you who have been dragged down by them.

Everyone will definitely have opinions about you, talk about you, and even target you."

"You, the manager of the outer city, can't sit still. I know you don't care, but I think... it would be more advantageous for you to go to the north."

"Avoid the limelight and stay in the north for a year or two. Once the limelight has passed, I will let you back at that time."

Li Yu's words made He Chao feel like he was struck by lightning.

He originally thought that the city lord no longer trusted him, so he let him go to the north, but in fact it was to protect him.

If ordinary people were sitting in Li Yu's position, they would definitely be suspicious.

There is something wrong with all my subordinates, and I would rather kill them than let them go.

It is very likely that he will be completely dragged into the water, and death is also possible.

But Li Yu was thinking about how to protect himself at this time.

thump!

He Chao fell to his knees on the ground, crying, feeling extremely guilty.

He shouldn't doubt that the city lord doesn't believe him, he can always trust the city lord.

"City Lord, I was thinking about you just now...I shouldn't disbelieve you, City Lord, but I didn't expect you, City Lord, to think so far."

"I'm the supervisor of the outer city. It's okay if I don't manage them well. City Lord, you not only don't punish me, but you also think about me so much. I, He Chao, am in danger of dying..."

Li Yu saw him kneeling on the ground and looked at the factory again.

There were already two or three people at the factory gate looking around curiously. When Li Yu looked over, they immediately ran into the factory.

"Shame on you, get up quickly, He Chao!"

Li Yu was so angry and funny, what the hell is this?

Just messing around.

He Chao wiped away his tears and snot, stood up, looked at Li Yu with red eyes and said:

"Thank you City Lord, I will listen to you."

"Who do you think can take your place?" Li Yu asked.

He Chao is gone, but there must always be someone in the outer city to coordinate these things.

Otherwise it will be a mess.

He Chao heard that Li Yu asked him to recommend candidates, and after thinking for a while, he said:

"Lao Zhou is more suitable, and so is Lao Yi. Lao Yi has a softer personality and can manage with balance.

In addition, there are many combatants in the outer city, and the two of them have relatively high prestige among combatants, so they should be able to suppress them."

"In addition, Song Min is also very suitable. She has management experience and a very straightforward style of work. She is also an old man at the base, so everyone is familiar with her."

Li Yu nodded. The candidates recommended by He Chao made sense.

"Yeah. I understand."

"Let me think about it again. You have been preparing for the handover recently. Once you have decided on the candidate, you can hand over the job to them."

"Okay, City Lord." He Chao rubbed his itchy eyes.

The conversation was almost over, and Li Yu had nothing to say, so he stood up and left.

He Chao rushed behind Li Yu and walked toward the inner city.

.....

.....

Twenty kilometers away from the Da Zhangshu Base, Li Gang and the commandos from the Da Zhangshu Base drove past in an off-road vehicle on National Highway 319.

After several days of repairs, National Highway 319 has become much smoother.

Although it cannot be compared with before the end of the world, compared with before the repair, the difference is still very big.

At least you don't have to drive and it won't be like riding a roller coaster, with your butt almost split in two.

Soon, they met the road construction team.

Wang Cheng of the road construction team saw Li Gang and his convoy, glanced at Lu Liping beside him, and quickly shouted to the road construction workers: "Stop road construction."

Then he said to Lu Liping: "Someone is coming from the base, let's go over and say hello."

"What's there to say hello to? They won't stop." Lu Liping curled his lips and said.

I thought to myself: It's really difficult to communicate in this royal city. If you can't get in, you have to find another target to win over.

Li Gang saw Wang Cheng and Lu Liping in front of him through the car window, and said to the people behind him: "Listen to my orders later and move more quickly. He has a gun in his hand."

When Lu Liping goes out to perform missions as an outsider, he can be equipped with a submachine gun in his hand.

The road construction team all stopped and retreated to both sides to wait for Li Gang and his convoy to pass.

Recently, the number of transportation vehicles has increased, and Wangcheng plans to modify it into odd and even dual roads, so that road construction will not be delayed and the normal passage of transportation vehicles will not be delayed.

Looking at the two cars approaching slowly, Lu Li-ping looked at the vehicles with a smile.

He could recognize that this was a combat vehicle from the base, which was different from the vehicle used by collaborators.

soon.

The vehicle drove to Wangcheng and Lu Liping.

Crunch!
