What was the use of telling them? There were a few people who would believe his words, but they would only think that there was something wrong with his brain.

This kind of thing could only be done according to fate.

Han Chi nodded perfunctorily and said, “I’ll take care of this matter, so don’t worry about it.” Afraid that she would ask again, he quickly changed the subject and said, “Why did you come to the island all of a sudden?”

Yan Han looked at him, and briefly told him about Ji Zhaoyan becoming the Zombie King and her escape all the way.

Han Chi looked at Yan Han’s gestures, lowered his head and said nothing. Why did Ji Zhaoyan want to kill Yan Han?

Ji Zhaoyan was bitten by Yan Han, so he remembered her and chased her. Did he also remember the island? So he wanted to bring the zombies to the island during the freezing period?

Han Chi shook his head. It was better not to make useless guesses here. He had to quickly tell the mayor about the zombies coming to the island.

But what excuse should he use to say that?

Early the next morning, Han Chi first went to the laboratory and briefly explained the experiment to Zheng Siqi, and then went to the administration building to find Mayor Sun Jiaxi.

When Han Chi came to the administration building, he only saw the mayor’s assistant. The assistant said that the mayor was busy with a meeting and could not get out for a while.

Han Chi nodded, saying that it was okay, and sat in the corridor waiting for the mayor to finish the meeting. This meeting lasted for two or three hours. Han Chi sat in the corridor and waited for most of the morning.     

Secretary Zhang said, “The mayor has to go to the next meeting. If Professor Han has any urgent matters, you can tell me first.”

“Secretary Zhang, the winter solstice is coming soon. Once the winter solstice is around, the cold air will strike, and the temperature on the island will plummet, and the sea will freeze by then. From previous years, the freezing period of the sea will be maintained until the beginning of spring. I’m afraid that the zombies in the urban area will come to the island through the ice surface.”

During Han Chi’s speech, he caught a glimpse of Secretary Zhang raising his hand to look at his watch two or three times, as if he was in a hurry.

Secretary Zhang saw that Han Chi had said a lot, so he interrupted Han Chi mercilessly, “Professor Han is worrying too much about this. The mayor has already arranged for people to stand guard at the border of the island. The meeting these days is also to implement this matter.  Professor Han can rest assured that the mayor will not joke about the lives of the whole island.”

“I know that, what I mean is that it’s not so safe to only arrange for personnel to stand guard. I think we can put explosives on the ice on the border of the island. If a large number of zombies come at that time, we can directly ignite the explosives and blow up the ice. In that way, we can provide more time for our safe evacuation.”

Secretary Zhang smiled disapprovingly and said, “Professor Han is very thoughtful, but I don’t think it is necessary at all. We have been on the island for three years, and only last year a few wandering zombies approached. When they came to the island at the beginning of spring, the guards on the border of the island also discovered and killed the zombies in time. Professor Han is also clear about this situation. The island is 200 kilometers away from Yunjing City. Those zombies have no intelligence, nor means of transportation. If you are saying that they will come to the island with a purpose, the probability is very small, and Professor Han does not need to worry too much.”     

“But as the ancients said, if there is no foresight, there will be immediate worries. My suggestion is only to add an extra layer of insurance to the lives of the people on the island. Besides, it is not troublesome to install explosives at the island boundary. No matter how careful you are, you can’t be too careful.”

Seeing that Han Chi was so tangled, Secretary Zhang was too lazy to argue with him again and said perfunctorily, “Well, Professor Han is right. You can’t be too careful about this kind of thing. Professor Han, don’t worry, I’ll convey your suggestion to the mayor.” 

After speaking, Secretary Zhang looked at his watch again, presumably showing a very anxious look.     

Han Chi was also a sensible person, knowing that Secretary Zhang didn’t want to listen to him anymore, and it was inconvenient to speak directly, he took the initiative to give Secretary Zhang a step down, “Secretary Zhang, are you in a hurry?”     

Secretary Zhang nodded and said, “Yes, there have been too many meetings recently, and there are too many things that need to be arranged before and after. If Professor Han has nothing else to say, I’ll take my leave.”

Han Chi nodded, “Secretary Zhang must convey my words to the mayor. It would be great if Mayor Sun had time to see me.”

Secretary Zhang slightly nodded, with a calm expression on his face, he seemed to be holding back his impatience, “Well, Professor Han, don’t worry. I’ll convey your words to him. As for whether the mayor has time to see you, it also depends on the mayor. As you know, there is a major event coming, and the mayor is also very busy.”

Han Chi did not speak for a while after hearing that. Secretary Zhang was afraid that he would entangle him again, so he hurriedly made an excuse to leave.
