Chapter 90 Disagreements, Parting on Unhappily
......
"...CDC?"
Rick's eyes lit up when he heard this. He immediately remembered that Morgan had mentioned that place before.
"Yes!"
Amy nodded repeatedly, glanced at Lee Allen discreetly, and then continued:
"Dr. Su was an expert who was invited by the WHO to go to the CDC."
"I heard they're researching an antidote there. Maybe we can find a way to save him when we get there."
Amy had her own ulterior motives when she made this suggestion.
Previously, she had been thinking about how to go to the CDC with Li Ailun.
Now there's finally a legitimate reason, and it's a matter of life and death, so even my sister can't object now.
"Dr. Su, is this true?"
Upon hearing this, Rick turned to Susan and asked.
He only had a general idea of who the two men were and was unaware that their destination was the CDC.
"..."
As Rick asked the question, everyone turned to look at Lee Allen and Susan...
However, everyone's attention was on Susan; they only regarded Li Ailun as a regular bodyguard.
"..."
Li Ailun didn't care; whether these people went to the CDC or not was irrelevant to him.
However, it's good that they go with him, because the more people there are, the muddier the water will become, which might make it easier for him to carry out his plans.
"Uh......"
Susan had initially remained silent and hadn't participated in their discussion, since it involved deciding someone's life or death.
But now that the topic has turned to her, she can no longer remain silent.
Seeing everyone looking at her expectantly, Susan felt somewhat embarrassed.
As an expert in the field of virology, she was well aware of how difficult it would be to develop an effective vaccine in a short period of time for such a rapidly mutating and spreading supervirus.
Therefore, I don't want to give them vague hopes, only to disappoint them in the end.
Susan hesitated for a moment, then carefully chose her tone and said:
"From what I understand, the CDC was indeed conducting research on virus vaccines before the disaster broke out, which was one of the reasons I went to the CDC. However, as you know, the situation outside is..."
Susan didn't finish her sentence, but everyone understood her unspoken meaning, and they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Even experts and PhDs in the field lack confidence, which makes it hard to be optimistic.
"Then let's go to the CDC to take a look..."
Rick, however, seemed to have made up his mind, and he said in a firm tone.
After what happened last night, he realized that the wilderness was no longer safe, and the zombies could come to the camp again at any time.
For the sake of his family, he had to find a new way out.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) might be a good option.
"Is it even necessary? Look outside, it's like the end of the world..."
Sean shook his head, completely unconvinced by the idea of an antidote.
"If they actually succeeded, why didn't they step in and stop the disaster?"
"What if the CDC were still operating?"
"Dude, that's a bit much..."
"Why? If there are any government agencies left, no matter what's left, they will protect the CDC at all costs, right?"
Rick never expected that his best partner would be the one opposing him, so he tried to persuade him:
"We'll help escort Dr. Su there; they'll definitely take us in. This is our best chance—a stable place to stay, and a guarantee of safety..."
"Okay, Rick, I want all of what you want too!"
Sean interrupted Rick, thinking his idea was too naive; he had no intention of going on an adventure with two people of unknown origin.
Seeing that the others seemed somewhat interested in Rick's suggestion, he told them his long-considered idea:
"If they really exist, they must be at a military base, Fort Benning."
"That's 100 miles away on the other side..."
Lori said.
She had heard Sean mention Fort Benning, the military base, more than once.
"Yes, but it's far from dangerous areas..."
Sean nodded to her, then addressed the crowd:
"Listen to me, if those places are still operating, they must be heavily guarded, and we'll be very safe!"
"The military was definitely on the front lines against the walkers. They were all wiped out; we all saw it."
Rick, however, had the complete opposite opinion of Sean, because he had witnessed the fate of those troops in the city.
Seeing that everyone was hesitant, he said earnestly:
"The CDC is our best option, and Jim's only hope!"
"..."
Everyone fell silent, each person deeply conflicted.
The two locations, one far and one near, represent different directions. Regardless of which side they choose, they will face a dangerous journey with an unknown outcome.
"Ah......"
Moore looked at the constipated expressions on their faces, scoffed disdainfully, and then stated:
"Think what you want, but my brothers and I are going to the CDC. I'm not going to accompany you from Benningburg."
"..."
Daryl glanced at his brother in surprise, but said nothing. Wherever Moore went, he would go too.
Moore's statement was undoubtedly the biggest blow to Sean's proposed advice.
Regardless, the Dixon brothers are among the team's strongest fighters. If they both leave, the team will immediately lose most of its powerful combat force, making the military base 100 miles away no longer a viable option.
As a result, people's hearts began to slowly tip toward the CDC.
"I...I'm going to the CDC too..."
At this moment, a woman who seemed to have no presence suddenly raised her watch and spoke up.
Mo'er was somewhat surprised to hear this. He turned around and saw that it was the woman he had rescued on a whim last night.
A playful smile appeared on his lips, then he asked in a flippant tone:
"Hey, little girl, what's your name?"
"Constance".
The woman smiled kindly at Moore, her opinion of him having changed somewhat since he had saved her the previous night.
"I......"
On the other side, Amy was eager to express her opinion, but was stopped by her sister Andrea.
She looked at her sister with a puzzled expression, then followed the direction Andrea was pointing.
But when she saw Sean's frighteningly gloomy face, Amy felt inexplicably scared and subconsciously shrank closer to Lee Allen.
"..."
Sean was in a very bad mood at this moment, and he could tell their inclinations from the expressions on everyone's faces.
He realized that he had gradually lost control of the team, and the reason why the team was now facing a split was because of Rick's joining and Moore's return.
So Sean stopped talking, turned around and left with a gloomy face.
“Sean…”
Seeing this, Rick quickly shouted.
Sean seemed not to hear, got into the pickup truck full of corpses, started the engine, and drove off towards the burial site, kicking up dust.
"..."
The others looked at each other, some at a loss for what to do.
"It's alright, everyone don't need to worry, I'll go and talk to him."
Rick quickly calmed everyone down, then said to them:
"Get moving, everyone, let's get these bodies dealt with first..."
Thus, a discussion sparked by Jim and concerning the fate of everyone came to an end due to Sean's sudden departure.
