“Just what?”

Grizzly asked subconsciously, then suddenly realized:

“You mean… their dormitories?”

“That’s right!”

Li Chenzhou sighed and said:

“We have so many people with us, this is the most suitable location. If we go any further, we’ll all have to camp in the wilderness, so we definitely have to stay here. It seems the prison itself shouldn’t be a problem, after all, they are all criminals!

But the problem is, if we're going to build a base here, we have to clear out that dormitory. What if Ding Ning firmly disagrees? And, most importantly, I also feel a little reluctant to move them all out! After all, that was their chosen… final resting place!”

“Actually, you shouldn't be struggling with this at all!”

Grizzly thought for a moment and said:

“First of all, you’re wrong. That’s not the end they chose for themselves. They went back to the dormitories mainly because they were out of time then.

The apocalypse came too suddenly, and they just saw their fallen comrades immediately turn into zombies and get back up, so they assumed that this world was like the movies, and that getting bitten by a zombie would turn you into one!

But I’m sure that including that Xiao Gang, none of them could determine when an injured person would die, or when they would turn into a zombie, so they didn't dare waste any time.

They didn’t even dare to help Ding Ning clear out the mutated prisoners in the prison first, but in reality, they had the time, right?”

Speaking of which, Grizzly looked at Li Chenzhou and asked.

“Yeah!”

Li Chenzhou nodded and said:

“The zombie virus does accelerate human death, but as long as it’s not a fatal wound, it usually doesn’t kill you quickly. Like that prison guard who was bitten on the wrist, if he refused to die, he would still be alive now! And he wouldn't mutate.”

“Exactly, that’s it!”

Grizzly slapped his thigh:

“Not everyone knows as much about the apocalypse as you do, so after carrying their comrades' bodies, they immediately prepared to commit suicide!

I’m sure that if they knew they still had enough time, they wouldn’t have carried their comrades’ bodies to the beds. Instead, they would have dug a big pit in the square or behind the prison, and buried everyone in it.

You can understand this yourself. No one wants their body to be placed on a bed, ignored, left to stink, attracting flies, maggots crawling around in their body, even burrowing into their internal organs.

They just felt they were out of time, didn't want to become zombies like those comrades, threatening others, and they didn't want to die outside, so they returned to the dormitories. It was a desperate choice, not their wish.”

“Okay! What else?”

Li Chenzhou nodded, then asked.

“Second! They are all soldiers, and from their performance, they are true soldiers, like my captain. You’ve met my captain. Do you think a soldier who was willing to become a zombie to let the leopard release the survivors he was protecting would want to use his body to occupy a room that could have been used to accommodate survivors?”

Grizzly looked at Li Chenzhou and asked.

“This…”

Li Chenzhou was stunned, then shook his head:

“Definitely not!”

“Right! So neither would they. And now you should understand why Ding Ning didn't want us to enter their dormitories before, right? He’s just afraid to face the result, wanting to keep a glimmer of hope in his heart, and it’s this glimmer of hope that has allowed him to hold on until now!”

Grizzly said with some emotion:

“So, I’m sure you don’t even need to beat around the bush with Ding Ning. You can just tell him directly, and he will definitely agree to let us move his comrades’ bodies out and bury them. In fact, getting him to vacate the dormitories will be even easier than vacating the prison.

What you need to consider now is how to deal with those prisoners. Ding Ning definitely won’t let you turn them into ordinary survivors, because his orders were not to let a single prisoner escape. This was what Xiao Gang told him personally, and then the old soldier confirmed it. To him, that is an order!

But if you kill them all, that’s no problem for you, but according to what Xiao Gang said before, I feel that Ding Ning will disagree. So, our real trouble is still here!”

“Okay! You solve the dormitory problem, and I’ll figure out a way for the prison!”

Li Chenzhou nodded, then turned and looked towards the prison.

“Boss! The gate is open. Sister Xue asks you, what do we do next?”

At this moment, Tianya ran in and asked.

“Leave a few cars for later use, and drive the rest to the back of the prison. Everyone comes in first, and gathers in the yard for now!”

Li Chenzhou hesitated for a moment, then said.

“Okay!”

Tianya agreed happily, then turned and ran out again.

After choosing this prison, Li Chenzhou already had a plan, because the prison had high enough walls, which were completely sufficient even without expansion. Therefore, those cars could encircle a piece of land along the river outside the wall behind the prison.

At that time, the walls built with cars could form two connected circles with the prison’s original walls, with the river in the middle!

In this way, the open space within the car-built walls could be used for cultivation, and even expanded in the future when there were enough materials. In short, Qing City Prison was truly the most ideal base that Li Chenzhou had encountered so far.

With Li Chenzhou’s order, Duan Xue and Tianya immediately had those helpers they had selected pass on the order. The convoy started moving again, and every car stopped at the prison gate, unloaded all the people and supplies, and then the driver drove the car to the back of the prison, crossed the bridge, and parked on that grassland!

“Boss!”

Duan Lei also returned at this time. When Li Chenzhou asked him to follow Ding Ning before, the look in his eyes told him to speak as little as possible, so Duan Lei just followed Ding Ning in and watched for a while amidst the prisoners’ curses, pretending to think. When he felt it was about time, he signaled Ding Ning that they could leave.

“Where’s Ding Ning?”

Li Chenzhou asked.

“Returned to the monitoring room!”

Duan Lei replied.

Li Chenzhou turned to look at Grizzly! Grizzly understood, looked at the survivors who were constantly entering, and said to Li Chenzhou:

“Have them all gather here, don’t go anywhere, and try to keep quiet. They may have to attend a funeral later!”

After saying that, Grizzly walked into the prison and headed towards the monitoring room…
