Chapter 87: An Invitation with Bad Intentions (Part 2)

After a short silence, Qiu Yiming suppressed his anger and continued, "I suspect someone is trying to harm you. I originally sent someone to investigate, but they left in a hurry, and I don't know if they found any results. I want to ask you first, do you suspect anyone?"

Fang Yuxin subconsciously thought of Fang Mengyao, but it was hard to say this when she thought about Fang Mengyao being with Qiu Yiming. So she simply said, "I can't think of it. Let's talk about it when we get back to the safe zone. Since you sent someone to investigate, there will always be a result."

Qiu Yiming nodded, and thinking that Fang Yuxin had not directly answered his question just now, he asked again: "Xinxin, did you really cure the person infected with the virus?"

Fang Yuxin knew very well that she could never admit this! The military had already set up a secret research group to study the zombie virus, and she didn't want to become someone else's experimental subject!

She said, "How is that possible? If I had such ability, would I still have to come out and do the tasks so hard?"

Qiu Yiming felt that she was right. He himself did not believe the rumors in the safe zone. But he still couldn't help asking, "What's going on?"

Fang Yuxin had already thought of an excuse, so he said, "I just asked them to cut off the corrupted part of the wound, and then used my supernatural power to help them heal the wound. The ones who can truly resist the virus are themselves."

"So that's how it is," Qiu Yiming suddenly realized. Then he thought of another rumor circulating in the safe zone, and asked again, "Xinxin, did you help two other people awaken their superpowers?"

As far as he knew, how to awaken superpowers was also a topic the research team was studying. After the superpowers appeared, they attracted the attention of many people in the upper echelons, and those researchers were extremely excited, wishing to unlock the secret of awakening superpowers so that ordinary people could awaken superpowers.

To this end, the researchers in charge of this topic conducted many experiments and finally found that ordinary people have a chance of awakening special powers after being infected with the zombie virus, but the probability is very small, only one in ten, and the remaining nine in ten possibilities is to turn into a zombie.

With such odds, no one except a madman would dare to take the risk. Unfortunately, the researchers did a lot of experiments but still couldn't solve this problem.

It’s easy to imagine that if they knew that Fang Yuxin had helped someone successfully awaken superpowers, these crazy researchers would definitely target her!

In fact, it is not just these researchers who are targeting Fang Yuxin.

Qiu Yiming knew very well that because the probability of awakening superpowers was too low, few people in the upper echelons could awaken to become superpowers, and most of them were ordinary people! These people were more ambitious than ordinary citizens, and they were more eager to become superpowers! There were also soldiers in the army, most of whom were ordinary people, and the upper echelons would definitely hope that they could all awaken to become superpowers.

So after the news spread in the safe zone, many eyes were fixed on Fang Yuxin. After learning that she risked her life to kill the zombie leader, many senior executives sighed and thought Zhou Yan was too stupid and didn't understand Fang Yuxin's value!

At that time, they all thought Fang Yuxin was dead, and even if they knew the news, they just sighed. But once Fang Yuxin returned to the safe zone safely, her whereabouts would be known to the top leaders of the base, and then someone would definitely find her!

Qiu Yiming deliberately told her about this, not only because he wanted to know the truth, but also because he wanted her to be prepared and make plans early. He whispered his guess to Fang Yuxin, and then asked: "Xinxin, when you return to the safe zone, someone from the research team will definitely come to find you. When that time comes, you will tell the truth, and I will protect you."

Fang Yuxin nodded. She didn't tell Qiu Yiming that using wood energy to stimulate the infected could increase their chances of awakening. After all, she was a cultivator who practiced immortal arts and was a pure wood spirit. The wood spirit she refined was full of vitality, which was unmatched by other wood-type supernatural powers.

If she tells this matter to others, and the research team fails after trying, they may ask her to "cooperate with the research". She doesn't want to become a tool in these people's hands!

So, she deliberately concealed the matter. Whether those researchers could figure it out or not was none of her business. She was not the Buddha, and she did not have the great enlightenment of sacrificing herself to feed the eagle.

There were quite a few people in the convoy, so it was inevitable that zombies would be attracted on the road. However, these zombies would be shot and killed by the soldiers on the vehicle before they could get close. After they died, someone was responsible for digging out the crystal cores. This was done to prevent other zombies from swallowing the crystal cores and evolving.

The appearance of mutated zombies and zombie leaders sounded the alarm for all survivors, forcing them to be on guard!

With these soldiers armed with live ammunition, Fang Yuxin and his team didn't need to take any action. All the zombies that approached were shot and killed, and soon they returned to the safe zone.

Just as Qiu Yiming worried, as soon as they returned to the safe zone, the top management learned that Fang Yuxin was still alive, so they sent someone to invite her over. The man who came was an ordinary man, about 27 or 28 years old, wearing a neat uniform, handsome, with sharp eyes, and a very elite look.

When he saw Fang Yuxin, his eyes instantly became hotter, but not because of her exquisite appearance, but because of her ability - the ability to awaken ordinary people into superpowers!

Even though he was used to big scenes, he couldn't help but feel his heart beating faster when he thought of that possibility.

Qiu Yiming and Zhou Yan obviously knew this man. Even though he knew that the other party only cared about Fang Yuxin's ability, Qiu Yiming still felt very angry - he hated other men looking at his woman with such fiery eyes!

This made him feel angry that his property was violated!

Qiu Yiming took a step forward and stood in front of Fang Yuxin: "Secretary Wang is waiting here, isn't he waiting for me?"

Wang Qiushi smiled and said in a gentle tone, "Major Qiu, I am here to pick up Miss Fang Yuxin on the orders of Team Leader Zheng. Regarding some rumors in the safe zone, Team Leader Zheng hopes to meet with Miss Fang."

Qiu Yiming and Zhou Yan both looked unhappy. The team leader Zheng he mentioned was Zheng Tianhe from the military's secret research group. This person was very difficult to deal with. If Fang Yuxin was targeted by him, she would be in big trouble!

Although the others didn't know who the 'Team Leader Zheng' he was talking about was, they knew from the looks on Zhou Yan and Qiu Yiming's faces that this person would definitely be difficult to deal with. Moreover, it was obvious that Wang Qiushi was not a good person, so people had to be on guard!

Wang Qiushi is actually quite handsome, but his eyes are long and narrow, making him look like a fox. Especially when he smiles, he looks malicious! It's hard for people to like him.

Fang Yuyang stood beside Fang Yuxin and said to Wang Qiushi, "I'll go with Xinxin."

Wang Qiushi turned his eyes and looked at him carefully, then raised his eyebrows and asked, "I heard that you were injured by a mutant zombie and infected with the virus, and it was Miss Fang who cured you, right?"

Fang Yuyang nodded, his heart full of vigilance. He really disliked Wang Qiushi!

Wang Qiushi said, "In that case, Mr. Fang can of course go with us. In addition to Mr. Fang, I hope the other five infected people cured by Miss Fang can also go with us."

As far as he knew, the researchers in the research group were quite interested in these cured infected people!

He smiled meaningfully, but the others were a little creepy and became more alert. The five of them were now members of the Yongsheng team, and they had sworn a blood oath never to betray, so they would naturally not quit at this time. So even though they were very uneasy, they still said they would go with the Fang brothers and sisters.

Wang Qiushi nodded with satisfaction, and turned his gaze to Bai Qianqian, as well as Fang Jintang and Qu Qianhe standing beside him. Although he was just an ordinary person, he intuitively felt that these three people were very unusual.

However, before he could invite her, Fang Yuxin, who had seen his intention, said first: "Dad, Mom, you should take Qianqian back to rest. He is young and I am afraid he is exhausted. My brother and I will be back later, so we won't be delayed for too long."

Wang Qiushi couldn't help but look at Fang Yuxin suspiciously. The timing of her words was so coincidental that he couldn't help but wonder if she had seen through his thoughts.

With his narrow eyes slightly narrowed, Wang Qiushi felt that he had probably underestimated this woman who was as beautiful as a vase.

Fang Yuxin didn't give him a chance to think further and asked, "Can we leave now?"

Wang Qiushi didn't like the feeling of being controlled by the other party, but he had to nod. Now everything else was not important. The important thing was to let Fang Yuxin and these cured infected people go to the research group and persuade them to "cooperate" with the research.

Qiu Yiming and Zhou Yan frowned again, both thinking that Wang Qiu had bad intentions! The two were worried about Fang Yuxin. Qiu Yiming liked her, while Zhou Yan admired her purely and didn't want her to be ruined by the crazy people in the research group.

So, both of them expressed their desire to go together, and their reasons were very legitimate.

Qiu Yiming said: "Xinxin is my fiancée, her affairs are my affairs, and I should accompany her."

Zhou Yan said: "She is my team member today. I know the details of what happened. It's just right for me to go there and be a witness."

Wang Qiushi naturally saw what the two were thinking. He snorted in disdain in his heart, but did not reject their request. Instead, he smiled gently and said, "In that case, please follow me."

Due to time constraints, this secret research institute was converted from a villa, with many armed soldiers standing outside and guarding it very tightly.

After going through layers of inspection, he successfully brought the person in. However, what they entered at this time was just the reception room at the outermost part, and they did not enter the real inner area of the institute at all.

In order to save space, the reception room was not very large, only about 15 or 16 square meters, and the walls were all painted white. There was a sofa against the wall, and soon after everyone sat down, Zheng Tianhe, who had received the notice, came.

The moment he saw him, Fang Yuxin's face changed drastically!

Why do I feel like the supporting characters all have very high IQs? I am really asking for trouble!
