Josh and several others were escorted to a hall where a few people were talking.
The person in authority sat on the other side of the long table in the hall, exuding an imposing aura of authority.
It was as if clearly announcing that they were the boss around here.
Josh looked at the person, feeling a vague sense of familiarity, as if they had met somewhere before.
"Report! Base Leader, we've captured six strangers!"
Josh looked at this so-called Base Leader.
The Base Leader seemed to be in their 50s, with a square and upright appearance, exuding a strong sense of justice.
But Josh couldn't help but dislike this person.
The Base Leader scrutinized them, then finally spoke after a while, "Where did you come from?"
Josh: "We're patients coming out of the hospital."
"Patients?!"
The people around them recoiled in horror, covering their mouths and noses, seemingly very afraid of being infected.
Josh looked at everyone: "We are not carrying any germs, rest assured."
