The most ruthless person in the apocalypse

Chapter 1047 It's my turn to do something for you!
"Old Duan? Dr. Fu said you went back to rest, why are you here again?"

As I stepped out of Cui Leng Xuan, I saw Duan Wuhu walking towards me, a cigarette dangling from his lips and his brows slightly furrowed.

"Ah, Brother Zhang."

Upon hearing Zhang Su's voice, Duan Wuhu's brows relaxed. He threw his cigarette butt on the ground and stomped it out. Pointing towards the laboratory on the second floor of Cui Lengxuan, he said, "There are more and more instruments in the laboratory now. I'm afraid Weijun and the others might have overlooked something when they left. Let's help check it together."

"You're so thoughtful. How are you feeling? Are you feeling better?"

Zhang Su pointed to Duan Wuhu's abdomen.

"I was skeptical when Xiao Qi and Xiao Pang told me that our healing ability is stronger than before, but now that I've experienced it myself, I'm completely convinced, haha."

Duan Wuhu touched the broken bone and sighed. They say it takes a hundred days to recover from a broken bone, but he has only been gone for a little over a day and he already feels a significant improvement. He believes he will be fully recovered in less than a week.

Zhang Su sighed softly and said with emotion, "Old Duan, being busy in the lab has really taken a toll on you. When you first came to Tianma Island, you were quite a capable person. It's a bit of a pity!"

Duan Wuhu had too little training time, so when everyone was running forward with all their might, he was left behind.

"There are always gains and losses, there's nothing we can do about it. Every job needs someone to do it. At first, I wasn't used to it, but gradually I found that being an assistant in the lab wasn't bad, haha, it's a peaceful job!"

Duan Wuhu smiled broadly.

Zhang Su could sense the faint melancholy in Duan Wuhu's heart. In this perilous apocalypse, one's own strength was the source of confidence.

"Old Duan, I have an idea. What do you think about setting up a small unit for invention and creation under the research department?"

The conversation had taken a rather large leap, and Duan Wuhu paused for a moment before nodding and saying, "That's right. Brother Zhang, do you have any plans?"

"I've noticed that Zhou Haotian always goes to Cui Lengxuan. He's always full of wild ideas and likes to tinker with strange and unusual things. Combined with Dr. Fu's research results, we should be able to develop some practical props."

Zhang Su lit a cigarette and casually handed one to Duan Wuhu.

Duan Wuhu took the cigarette, his face showing a thoughtful expression, and said, "This is a good idea, Brother Zhang. We should create such a department."

"Yes, let's include Zhou Haotian, Master Jia, and Ding Yongguo. These people are either full of ideas or have strong practical skills. How about we put this department in your hands?"

Zhang Su's main plan was to arrange a decent position for Duan Wuhu, an old neighbor who had contributed a lot to the camp and had even hindered his own development.

Duan Wuhu scratched his head, tucked the cigarette behind his ear, and chuckled, "Brother Zhang, do you think I can do it?"

"You used to be a teacher, and you could manage dozens of naughty kids in PE class. What's wrong with managing a small department now? Besides, I see that Cui Lengxuan still has several empty rooms. Let them use them as studios. It would be quite suitable!"

Zhang Su gave the final approval, and the Tianma Island Invention and Creation Department was established. Apart from the head, none of the other members knew about it...

Duan Wuhu nodded and said, "Alright, Brother Zhang, you think highly of me, so I'll work hard and try not to let you down. But what are the main tasks of this department...?"

"Let's discuss this after you've gathered everyone. Zhou Haotian is full of weird ideas. Just ask him. When the time comes, see what he wants to do and write an application report for me."

Zhang Su often overheard Zhou Haotian chatting with others, sometimes saying things like "If there were such and such a thing, I would do this and that." It was clear that Zhou Haotian was a very thoughtful person, and since he had ideas, he should make use of them.

"Should this information be kept secret?"

"There's nothing to keep secret. You can give them a heads-up in a bit."

Duan Wuhu put one hand on his hip, laughed, and said, "Then I'll be holding two positions from now on, haha."

"Given the current situation at our camp, Teacher Xiao is more than capable of handling everything on her own. You can take on more responsibility!"

Zhang Su smiled, patted Duan Wuhu on the shoulder, waved, and walked home.

Duan Wuhu watched Zhang Su's figure disappear into the darkness, then turned and walked into Cui Leng Xuan. He was in a much better mood than before. When he arrived at the laboratory, he saw the three of them busy at work and smiled.

"Gentlemen, I have some good news. We've become a higher-level department..."

Without keeping everyone in suspense, Duan Wuhu revealed the contents of his conversation with Zhang Su. After listening, Xie Yanshan laughed and said, "Haha, I also think that young man Zhou Haotian is quite capable of research."

"It's just that with so many people, it's very uncomfortable..."

Fu Weijun had some reservations about the arrangement. Originally, Cui Lengxuan only housed research departments and was very spacious and comfortable. Later, the medical institutions from Tianma Island were moved to Cui Lengxuan. Fortunately, no one was injured every day, so he didn't feel anything was wrong.

But now they've even occupied the last few vacant rooms, making Fu Weijun feel extremely cramped. After all, they used to have a large villa all to themselves on Turtle Island...

"I was just saying... you'll get used to it." Fu Weijun felt he shouldn't complain, but then realized things were different now, so he quickly changed his tune.

"Old Xie, Teacher Zuo, you should go back and rest first. Weijun and I will take care of the rest."

"Haha, I'll head out now. Finally, I can go home and sleep!"

"The dissection area is all set up; all that's left is to clean up the equipment area..."

Xie Yanshan and Zuo Fengjuan didn't stand on ceremony. They simply changed their clothes and left the lab, knowing that Duan Wuhu and Fu Weijun probably had something to say.

They did have something to talk about, but the specific content was not what they expected!

"What is Brother Zhang's attitude towards the modification fluid?"

After Xie Yanshan and Zuo Fengjuan left the courtyard, Duan Wuhu returned to the laboratory and quietly asked Fu Weijun.

Fu Weijun smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Zhang said on the surface that he didn't like the modification path, but he didn't take the modification fluid. I guess what he didn't like was the modification itself, but the instability of the modification. Mr. Zhang is very kind to the members of the camp."

If those killed by Zhang Su knew this assessment from heaven, they would jump down and beat Fu Weijun to death!

"Weijun, since Brother Zhang hasn't explicitly forbidden it, then you... give it your all! I, I, sigh, you know what I mean!"

Duan Wuhu hesitated, a clear look of disappointment on his face.

"I understand, Brother Duan. You've done so much for me, it's time for me to do something for you!"

Fu Weijun's expression was resolute. He knew very well that the battle on Turtle Island had dealt a huge blow to Duan Wuhu. The lack of strength made him feel threatened by death, and the struggle against his power was extremely torturous.

……

When Zhang Su got home, he listened carefully and heard Yu Wen discussing legal matters with Liu Lingping. He thought to himself that it would be really nice if all couples could be like Yu Wen and Liu Lingping.

Pushing open the door, I saw Zheng Xinyu practicing the use of cold energy, just like yesterday. I went into the inner room and glanced inside. Instead of lying down to rest, she was sitting at her desk, drawing with matchsticks...

"Honey, that glowing ball you mentioned, could you bring it back on our trip?"

Zheng Xinyu's chill dissipated as she got out of bed, took the clothes from Zhang Su, and hung them up.

"If it's really as easy as you say, and I can just bring it back casually, that would be wonderful!"

Zhang Su shrugged helplessly.

"Isn't that ball only attacking objects in the sky? What problem could there be if we sail there?" Zheng Xinyu asked, puzzled.

"That's because we only tested it with air units, not from the water. But we can definitely try it tomorrow! Yawn, go to sleep, I'm exhausted today."

Zhang Su waved his hand, took off his clothes, and collapsed onto the bed.

"I haven't seen you doing anything. When we were at the port, you were leading the masters around. When did you get so weak? Hey, you must be thirty this year. Sigh, men over thirty can only chat, they can't do anything else."

Zheng Xinyu sat on the bed, poked Zhang Su's arm with her finger, and muttered annoying things under her breath.

A row of black lines appeared on Zhang Su's forehead, along with a taut "#". He let out a heavy breath and said in a deep voice, "If you keep pushing me, I'll make you shine!"
