After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 207

Chapter 207: Chapter 207: Investigation Report

Before Walsh left, Nina Jacobs gave him a few cookbooks.

As far as she knew, postpartum recovery meals weren’t difficult to make. For a professional chef like Walsh, it should be a piece of cake.

She planned to pay Walsh a salary based on the standards of the base’s cafeteria.

She’d heard that salaries at the base could be paid in Points, or even Crystal Cores and Gold.

However, Gold was quite valuable. Typically, only those willing to receive an annual salary could have it paid in Gold.

"It’s a good thing Nina reminded us to bring all the family’s Gold,"

"Now Gold has become hard currency. We can exchange it for Points at the base’s financial office."

Daniel Hale said, feeling very fortunate.

If you didn’t want to exchange it for Points, you could also go to the financial office to have it minted into an equivalent amount of Gold Coins or Gold Bars.

Both Gold Coins and Gold Bars could be used as cash on the base.

They were even more valuable than Crystal Cores.

"I really never would have thought."

Vera Coleman heard that Gold could even be used to rent housing on the base.

It was all thanks to her daughter’s good judgment before; they had lucked out and bought an extra case of Gold.

With the family’s future expenses, that Gold would be their safety net.

"Let’s not worry about these things for now."

"Mom, your due date is getting closer. We need to be extra careful these days,"

Nina Jacobs reminded her.

"I’m planning to take leave in a few days."

The area around the new base was still relatively safe, and Daniel Hale had already spoken to Justin Lawson and the others about taking leave.

"I don’t know what Lawson has been busy with these past few days."

"Especially Adrian Shaw. He’s been getting quite close with that Liam Grant."

"They’ve already had many private meetings."

Daniel Hale didn’t understand it. He only knew that Sheldon Holden and Dawn Donovan, who had previously supported Liam Grant, had become much more active.

"Wasn’t that guy kicked off the rescue team?"

Leo Hale was taken aback.

Sheldon Holden was an old rival of Daniel Hale’s.

If Daniel Hale hadn’t awakened his Spiritual Element Superpower, Sheldon Holden would have likely spared no effort to bring him down.

"Some things might seem unusual, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re bad."

"We just need to mind our own business and do our parts."

Nina Jacobs listened to their conversation, her expression unchanging.

"Nina... do you know something?"

Seeing Nina Jacobs nod slightly, Daniel Hale understood perfectly.

’It must be something that can’t be made public.’

And he couldn’t shake the feeling that Nina Jacobs seemed to be faintly looking forward to something...

"You’re right. No matter what happens,"

"people have to do their part."

Nina Jacobs was telling him to handle a shifting situation by staying the course.

"Why isn’t Sherry Renner back yet?"

Nina Jacobs changed the subject.

It was around eight o’clock at night. Sherry Renner’s shift should have ended at the same time as Daniel Hale’s.

"She’s busy hunting a murderer. The base’s Enforcement Bureau was just officially established, and they’re already facing a major case."

"Plus, the number of victims keeps increasing. She’s probably tearing her hair out right now."

Daniel Hale knew a little about the affairs of the various departments on base.

"Is it that case about the person killing female Superpower Users and digging out their Crystal Cores?"

Nina Jacobs hadn’t expected Sherry Renner to be in charge of this.

"Because Renner is always the first to arrive at the crime scene."

"She’s basically the one who discovers every victim."

Daniel Hale was also aware of Sherry Renner’s abilities.

If it weren’t for this ability of hers, the people at the Enforcement Bureau would have considered her the prime suspect.

"So that’s how it is. Are there any leads?"

Nina Jacobs was also very concerned about this case.

She had originally suspected The Aegis Conclave, but on second thought, if people from The Aegis Conclave were really behind it, they wouldn’t let themselves be discovered so easily.

Besides, it was still too early.

’The Aegis Conclave should still be in its nascent stage.’

"I heard the killer is probably a Gold Element Superpower User."

Leo Hale had heard this from Sherry Renner.

’A Gold Element Superpower User?’
