Chapter 51: Infiltrating the Building
After Officer Miao helped Li Dazhu treat his wound, Li Chengping immediately inquired about what had happened. Wang Bin took a sip of water and recounted the events.
When everyone heard about their battle with Captain Li's group, they were all wide-eyed, unable to believe that the four of them had managed to kill so many of the enemy.
But when they heard that they were blocked by zombies on their way back to the surface, with more zombies constantly arriving, everyone was too tense to utter a word, listening quietly to Wang Bin's story.
If they hadn't seen Wang Bin and the others standing right in front of them, they wouldn't have believed they could have survived the ordeal.
Wang Bin also felt that he had underestimated the zombies after killing so many due to his geographical advantage. Especially when so many zombies gathered together, it was not something a few people could resist.
"Bao, Little Nan, I've got a task for you," Wang Bin said with a smile after finishing his story.
"Sure, we'll complete the task!" Bao and Little Nan stood up excitedly, looking like two little soldiers.
"Get some water and clean our car," Wang Bin said with a smile.
"What? Clean the car?" Bao and Little Nan deflated like balloons, looking dispirited.
"We have an operation tonight, and if the windows aren't clean, we won't be able to see anything!"
"Alright, we'll clean the car right away!"
"I'll help too!" Li Xiaolu quickly stood up when she heard this.
"You're not fully recovered yet, so you shouldn't go," Wang Bin said, surprised to see Li Xiaolu stand up, but he remembered her condition and advised against it.
"I'm fine now, Uncle Wang, please let me go?" Li Xiaolu pleaded, holding Wang Bin's hand and swaying it.
"Wang Bin, just let her go, otherwise she'll feel bad," Li Dazhu understood his sister's feelings. They had just joined Wang Bin's group and were treated so well. Both siblings were grateful and wanted to do something for Wang Bin and the others.
"Alright, you can go, but be careful. If zombies approach, come back immediately!" Wang Bin understood the siblings' intentions and didn't stop them, just reminded them to be safe.

"Don't worry, we have guns. If zombies come near, we'll take them out!"
Bao and Little Nan proudly showed off their guns, making everyone laugh.
Watching the three go to wash the car, Wang Bin felt a bit frustrated. It was one thing for Bao and Little Nan to call him uncle, but it was another for Li Xiaolu to do the same, which he found hard to accept.
He was only twenty-one, and Li Xiaolu was fifteen, just five years younger than him. How did he become an uncle? Did he really look that old?
Thinking about this, Wang Bin quietly went to the bathroom to look in the mirror. He hadn't aged, but his demeanor had changed a lot.
The group then began discussing how to infiltrate the base that night. Initially, Wang Bin's plan didn't include taking Li Dazhu, but Li Dazhu insisted on going and explained his reasoning.
During the operation, they needed someone to create a distraction outside the base to lure the guards out. Additionally, if a fight broke out, he could provide fire support.
Wang Bin thought it over and agreed. They did need someone to help.
To ensure the night's operation went smoothly, Wang Bin told everyone to rest and recharge for the evening.
At nine o'clock, Wang Bin and the three others were ready, driving towards Boss Jin's base.
To avoid detection, they stopped the car before reaching Boss Jin's territory and carefully approached the base on foot.
"Dazhu, take these grenades and this rifle with a night vision scope. After we leave, create some chaos at this entrance after an hour, then go to this spot to meet us."
"Dazhu, take my phone to keep track of time!" Officer Miao handed her phone to Li Dazhu to synchronize their actions.
"Got it!" Li Dazhu accepted the phone without hesitation.
"Alright, let's synchronize our watches. It's 9:50 now, start the distraction at 10:50."
"Understood!"
"Move out!"
After synchronizing their watches, Wang Bin led Guan Xiaoyue and Officer Miao to the spot where they had climbed the wall last time. Using the same method, the three quickly infiltrated the base.
The base was silent, with no one on the roads.
The underground parking garage was large, with four entrances, none of which were guarded. However, the building where Boss Jin lived was guarded by two men.
Since the power was out, the elevators were unusable, so no one was guarding them.
But the elevators were close to the main entrance, and opening the elevator doors would make noise, so Wang Bin decided to take out the two guards first.
This task was left to the professionals, Officer Miao and Guan Xiaoyue, while Wang Bin held the air gun, ready to act if discovered.
Although the air gun wasn't as powerful as a rifle, it was very quiet, so Wang Bin had kept it in the system space, and now it was time to use it.
Guan Xiaoyue and Officer Miao divided the work, each targeting one of the guards.
The two quickly approached the guards from behind, exchanged glances, and quietly moved forward. With a swift motion, one guard had his throat slit, and the other had his neck broken, easily taking them out.
To prevent others from discovering the guards' bodies, Guan Xiaoyue and Officer Miao dragged them to a hidden corner and confiscated their guns for Wang Bin to store.
"Let's go!"
The three reached the elevator entrance, used a prepared iron bar to pry open the doors, and squeezed inside, closing the doors slightly behind them.
Officer Miao, being the most experienced climber, had prepared ropes and makeshift gloves for all three. The ropes ensured they wouldn't fall, and the gloves protected their hands.
Following Officer Miao's lead, the three began climbing upward.
Officer Miao was the fastest among them, but climbing a thirty-nine-story building was time-consuming and physically demanding, so she didn't rush. She stopped periodically to secure herself with the rope and wait for Wang Bin and Guan Xiaoyue, taking the opportunity to drink some water and replenish her stamina.
The three climbed in intervals, steadily making their way up.
Perhaps Wang Bin had overestimated their abilities, as by 10:45, they had only reached the thirty-second floor. Looking down into the dark elevator shaft was nerve-wracking; a fall would mean certain death.
"It's almost time, Dazhu should start soon," Wang Bin said, checking his phone with a hint of resignation.
"That's good. By the time we reach the top, there should be fewer people up there," Officer Miao said with a slight smile.
"Let's rest for a bit, and once they leave, we'll climb to the top in one go."
"Alright!"
At 10:51, two grenade explosions sounded at the entrance, instantly killing several guards.
After succeeding, Li Dazhu quickly disappeared into the darkness.
