The Walking Dead TWD

Chapter 66 Timing of Implementation

"Rick, don't be nervous, I'm not a bad person!"

Zhou Nan tried to give Rick a kind smile, but his preconceived wrong ideas made Rick feel even more uneasy.

Zhou Nan tried to explain to Rick, but Rick didn't listen to Zhou Nan at all.

"Bullshit! If you are not a bad person, how could you abuse him like this?" Rick now distrusts Zhou Nan very much.

Zhou Nan had no choice but to call the more friendly Dr. Marcunes.

"Rick, this is Dr. Macunes, who is in charge of your care. Can she tell you what's happened recently?"

Seeing that Rick nodded in agreement very readily this time, Zhou Nan left here feeling a little depressed.

Rick breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Zhou Nan leave. He was currently in an extremely weak state and was no match for Zhou Nan at all, so he didn't want to have too much contact with Zhou Nan.

Rick knew very well that if a conflict broke out, he would be the only one to suffer.

Rick was obviously no longer so resistant to Macunes, and he was willing to ask Macunes some questions, "Doctor, have you seen my wife and son?"

Marcus answered truthfully, "My name is Marcus. I took over your care after the disaster day."

"I don't know where your wife and children are. Perhaps you should ask Zhou Nan about this question. He knows more about your situation than I do."

Rick is now full of doubts about Zhou Nan, but he is obviously more interested in the new term "Disaster Day".

"What is Disaster Day? Has a disaster broken out now?"

"Yes, humanity is going through its most difficult time right now. The zombie Zhou Nan just showed you is the protagonist of this disaster!"

Rick looked at the "miserable" zombie and said, "Zombie? What a strange name. Is it the one who was tortured?"

After hearing this, Marcus's expression became serious: "They are corpses, not living people!"

"And we didn't torture it. It was just a zombie energy source that Karina was researching."

"How is that possible? Dead people don't move! I get it, you're all in the same group!" Rick retorted immediately, looking obviously wary.

Marcus smiled and said, "Wait until I can give you the most concise and powerful evidence!"

Harrison Memorial Hospital was attacked by a gang yesterday, leaving behind many bodies.

After cleaning up the bodies, they found something interesting.

After the transformation, even if they only have a head left, they can still open their mouth and bite.

It is impossible to eliminate zombies without destroying their brains!

So Marcus kept one as a "toy".

No, that should be called research subject.

When the head was placed in front of Rick, Rick completely believed what Macunes said.

The tissue fluid flowing from the severed skull, the blood clots, and the fishy smell all proved that this was indeed a human head.

Marcunes talked to Rick about the characteristics of zombies. After understanding everything, Rick finally accepted the reality.

"So, there really are these living dead. They're called zombies, right? I think they should be called walkers."

Marcus spread his hands, saying he didn't know the reason. "That's what Zhou Nan calls them. He always calls these dead people zombies."

"Zhou Nan, Zhou Nan again?" Rick glanced at Zhou Nan in the distance.

At this time, after Hannah heard Zhou Nan tell her that Rick had woken up, she also hurried over with her two children.

"Hannah? Oh my god, it's really you!"

Rick's eyes were full of shock. Rick was very familiar with his neighbor Hannah, who was good at being a family mediator!

"Rick, you finally woke up!"

Hannah also said happily that they have been taking care of Rick these days.

Although Rick was unconscious, they had already regarded him as a member of their team.

"Hannah, where are Lori and Carl? Do you know where they are?"

Seeing that someone he knew had finally come, Rick let down his guard.

"Zhou Nan said that Loli and Karl escaped from here under Sean's leadership!"

Hannah had heard Zhou Nan mention her neighbor's movements, so she naturally knew Lori's current whereabouts.

Hearing that Sean had taken Lori away, Rick felt relieved: "Then I'm relieved."

"But why is it Zhou Nan again? How does Zhou Nan know everything?"

"Who the hell is he!"

Rick looked at Zhou Nan who was far away and asked Hannah with some confusion.

"Zhou Nan is a very good person. If it weren't for his care, you would have died long ago!" Hannah answered truthfully.

Rick was stunned. "Really? Wasn't it Dr. Marcunes who saved me?"

Hannah explained to Rick, "Zhou Nan knew you were injured in this hospital. He came here specifically to help you. He said he wanted to repay you for letting him hide behind the car."

"And you're lacking nutrient solution. Zhou Nan is risking his life to go outside and bring it back for you..."

Rick understood, "It turns out that my unintentional action when I was carrying out the mission has become the key to saving my life today!"

Rick felt a little guilty for a moment. He felt that his previous behavior was a bit impolite and his attitude towards Zhou Nan was also very bad.

So Rick took the initiative to apologize to Zhou Nan and expressed his gratitude to Zhou Nan.

Rick said himself that he would definitely repay Zhou Nan.

Although Rick might not have died if Zhou Nan had not interfered with him, Zhou Nan did contribute and was indebted to Rick.

Besides, under the butterfly effect, it is not certain whether Rick can survive.

Thinking of this, Zhou Nan accepted Rick's gratitude with peace of mind. After receiving the guarantee from the protagonist of the original drama, Zhou Nan was also satisfied.

Sometimes, making others owe you a favor is the best way to maintain a relationship between two people.

Oh yes, besides lending money to others.

However, when Rick woke up, the most serious problem emerged.

So who will be the leader of the team?

Zhou Nan thinks that he does not have the ability to be a dictator. That would be simply courting death. One cannot be a dictator without some ability!

So should we implement a committee system?

The Committee is a collective decision-making system that first appeared in Season 4.

It avoids the inequality and abuse of power that can come with autocracy, while also preventing leaders from delegating too much power and becoming weak.

Through the committee system, team members can brainstorm and participate in the decision-making process together, which is considered to be a relatively advanced system in the end times.

In the economic field, a rationing system was implemented, the commodity price system was abolished, and a special department was responsible for the collection, storage and distribution of materials.

This wartime economy-like approach ensures that resources can be concentrated in the most critical areas.

In the early days, the protagonist team was all looking out for themselves, and almost everyone was constantly making trouble, almost causing the team to fall apart.

In order to control the situation, Rick had to implement a dictatorship.

Everyone knows the effect. If Rick makes a wrong judgment, the situation will be disastrous, and the overall atmosphere is depressing.

The end of the world is difficult, and Zhou Nan doesn't want that.

What Zhou Nan wants to do is to skip the dictatorship stage directly, give everyone a chance to speak, and let everyone jointly decide the overall direction of the team.

Zhou Nan was a little unsure as to when this system should be proposed.

Because their team has not yet been through the process of running in and their thoughts are not highly unified, this can easily lead to a situation where overall mistakes occur.

In that case, although it is in the overall interest, the accuracy cannot be guaranteed.

After Zhou Nan dealt with Rick's affairs, he climbed to the top floor of the hospital alone and observed everyone moving on the ground. Zhou Nan muttered to himself.

“So should I give them the power?”
