Chapter 740 Father and Son

"I found Qin Jin."

Lu Weiyi didn't give him time to react and continued, "The conscious zombie wandering around Qingyuan!"

He could feel that the letter in the space had been taken away, but there was no response for a long time.

Only then did Lu Weiyi feel sad. He wondered what kind of memories he had when he returned to Qingyuan, and how long he had been wandering among the zombies to reach his current level.

If possible, Lu Weiyi even hoped that they would never meet, so that he could convince himself with a faint hope that they were living well in places he didn't know about, and he could meet them one day in the future.

Instead of the current scene of war.

He thought back to Qin Jin in his previous life. That man had always followed Zhuang Mingxu until their deaths. He was the backbone of the team. He had the steadiness of Wu Yue, but also the unrestrainedness that Zhuang Mingxu did not have. He almost had a carefree look written all over his face.

Now he has become like this.

While waiting, Wu Yue stepped forward and wanted to hold Qin Nian for a while, "You take a rest."

"Forget it, I'll see what's there, let's eat." Lu Weiyi didn't intend to tell Wu Yue before Zhuang Mingxu responded. When he was choosing food in the space, Wu Yue exclaimed.

Looking up, he saw Wu Yue holding the necklace that he had snatched from the man before. He stuffed the pendant back into Qin Nian's arms, and it was now held in Wu Yue's hand.

"Why does this thing look so familiar?" Wu Yue pinched an oval piece of metal. With a click, the metal seemed to open a door, and also opened Wu Yue's memory. "I forgot that photos can be placed in it. Qin Jin used to carry such a thing with him, and he treasured it like a treasure."

He said with a smile, looked down inside, a look of surprise flashed across his face, and then he became excited. From the moment he said Qin Jin's name, Lu Weiyi had become nervous, and looking at him at this moment, his whole body was unconsciously tense.

Wu Yue handed the necklace to Lu Weiyi and asked, "Take a look at it. Is this Qin Jin?"

Lu Weiyi took it and took a look. Sure enough, the person on it was the young Qin Jin, and the person standing closely with him was the even younger Yin Jin.

“They…they…” Wu Yue’s mind was confused for a moment, but he quickly sorted it out. “I’ve heard from people in the team before that Qin Jin had a childhood sweetheart, and they had an ambiguous relationship. Just when he was about to confess his love, that person’s family disappeared, and there has been no news since then. Could it be…”

As he spoke, he stared at Qin Nian in his arms in disbelief, then slowly raised his head to look at Lu Weiyi, "Why do you think his last name is Qin?"

"..." Lu Weiyi guessed what he wanted to say, but he didn't want to respond.

Qin Nian was conceived around the end of the world. If this is really possible, Qin Jin would definitely protect him. What happened that caused Qin Jin, who should have successfully awakened his superpowers, to become a zombie, and Yin Jin to be taken to Zhuang Mobai's laboratory?

There is no need to think about it, all of this will become a cruel past.

"Look at him, doesn't his mouth look like Qin Jin's? And these ears, the protruding ears, the more I look at them, the more they look like him." Wu Yue became excited as he spoke, pacing back and forth in the small room. Over the past few years, they had put bounties on several bases but had not received any news about Qin Jin. Although they were still looking for him, they had already acquiesced in their hearts that he might be dead.

However, the child who has been raised by his side might be the son of a close friend. This feeling is like a gift from heaven. Wu Yue was very excited for a moment. "Yin Jin must know. It seems that he deliberately did not work with Mingxu for a period of time and insisted on choosing to be the principal of the orphanage."

"The first assistant to the base director, this is a much more prestigious position than being the director of a kindergarten. He must be trying to get in touch with Qin Jin's parents. I remember Nian Nian got along very well with them."

Wu Yue cited various evidences in an attempt to persuade him, which reminded Lu Weiyi of the time when Qin Nian's mental power was out of control and he needed his time to help bring the father and son out of the laboratory to live together. Yin Jin also saw the photos of Zhuang Mingxu's team, and after that he no longer had any rejection of them.

Even though Qin Nian still had a controller around his neck at the time, he accepted it calmly and worked very hard with Zhuang Mingxu until they truly accepted them.

"Tell me, why didn't he say anything? With so many of us, we should be able to raise this child well. It's really... too polite." Wu Yue said, carefully lifting Qin Nian's eyes and taking another look, "Did he wean himself too early? Why does he look a little thin?"

Lu Weiyi did not respond to his chattering because he received a response from Zhuang Mingxu in the space.

It was a small piece of paper, and it looked like it had been squeezed hard by someone. The paper was slightly wrinkled, and there were undried water drops on it. I wonder if they were the tears that Zhuang Mingxu shed when his emotions were out of control.

His notes were so heavy that they seemed to be written one by one, and in the middle, they penetrated the paper because he was writing too hard. He asked, "What happened to you?"

Lu Weiyi described the scene to Zhuang Mingxu, and then said, "Qin Nian seems to be Qin Jin's child. He is carrying a photo of Qin Jin and Yin Jin when they were young."

"Wu Yue didn't see his face, I don't know what to do? We are hiding now."

"Qin Nian is sick."

"Treat!" Zhuang Mingxu's letter came back immediately, with only one word.

"We must keep the child."

"Don't confront me head on, let me think about it..."

This was the first time that Zhuang Mingxu failed to organize his thoughts in the first place. Lu Weiyi seemed to be able to hear the struggle and indecision he felt when he whispered "Let me think about it".

"It's okay, we are safe." Lu Weiyi gave him the time he wanted.

Wu Yue had calmed down by now, and was holding Qin Nian lovingly, with a smile on his face as if he had become a father. This made Lu Weiyi even more at a loss as to how to tell him.

The basement did not allow the zombies to sense them, and the mutant bats outside gradually gave up their attack after the initial unsuccessful attacks.

Qin Nian woke up early the next morning. Her fever had subsided, but she still looked listless. When she saw Lu Weiyi appear in front of her, her eyes lit up, and then she pouted and started crying.

He held Lu Weiyi's hand with his little hand and cried uncontrollably, "Where... where have you been? I... we have been looking for you for a long time..."

Perhaps it was because he was guided by Lu Weiyi's mental power before he was born, and he followed Lu Weiyi for a period of time after he was born. Qin Nian was the closest person to Lu Weiyi besides Yin Jin.

The person he hadn't seen for a long time appeared in front of him, and the child couldn't help crying and gasping for breath.

"Don't cry, don't cry, tell Uncle Wu what happened? Who bullied you?" Wu Yue squatted on the ground and looked at the child.

"Woo... There are bad guys... Brother, take me and run..." Qin Nian couldn't speak clearly and even lost his balance. Wu Yue asked a few more questions anxiously but he became more confused. In the end, he could only give up helplessly.

It was impossible for him to find the base in his current condition, so after feeding the child some porridge, he fell asleep again not long after, waiting for them to have a recurring fever.

When Zhuang Aiyi was a child, he would be sent to the research institute whenever he was sick. After the end of the world, when he was with them, Zhuang Mingxu took care of him more. Lu Weiyi had never taken care of a sick child, especially when he was young and there was no doctor around. The two of them were just holding a few medicine shelves and worrying anxiously.

In the end, Lu Weiyi sought help from Zhuang Mingxu, and managed to stabilize himself under his guidance.

After knowing that Qin Nian might be Qin Jin's child, Zhuang Mingxu obviously became concerned. He even asked someone to prepare meals suitable for sick children and store them in the space. He even made egg custard with the bird eggs that the villagers sent to Taotao and sent it in.

The child's condition fluctuated for a few days and gradually stabilized, especially after Lu Weiyi slowly absorbed the crystal core for him several times. After feeling his supernatural power level slowly rising, his physical condition recovered more and more obviously.

However, the situation outside is not good - the heavy rain has been going on for a week.

The basement where they stayed was finally flooded in the dead of night.

The howling flood water rushed in, washing the mutant bats that were staring at them into the water. In the face of nature, no matter how powerful an animal is, it can only struggle.

Wu Yue immediately protected the two of them and took them up to the damaged high-rise. However, due to the rampant vegetation growth caused by no one taking care of them for several years, these old buildings had long been dilapidated. The flood immediately made them shake.

Looking around, they saw floods all around and couldn't even find a place to hide.

"Nian Nian's body has just recovered. She can't soak in water anymore." Wu Yue looked at the zombies and mutated animals caught in the water, as well as the uprooted trees. They were rushing around like crazy and had no room for resistance. It would be great if they had water-related abilities at this time. This is simply the home court of water-related abilities. Wu Yue sighed in his heart, "I will use my abilities to solidify a high ground and we will hide on it."

"I have boats and motorboats in my space," said Lu Weiyi.

Wu Yue shook his head. “The electrical appliances we took out are all breaking down at a slow rate, even the simplest flashlights are no exception. That kind of unmanufacturable resource should be kept in your space for the time being. Maybe you can use it again when it becomes stable in the future.”

Lu Weiyi also planned so, so recently they have been using the most primitive things, and they would not touch any electrical appliances unless absolutely necessary.

"I will tie the two of us together and try not to separate us," Lu Weiyi said as he took out a handful of purified crystal cores and handed them to him.

Wu Yue took it, and without saying a word, he stretched out his hand to build a small room, and reshaped the shaking floor under his feet. After a while, a pyramid-shaped building was formed, with a spacious base extending upwards, and the top was the room they were in.

With his continuous reinforcement, even though the water was flowing fast, he was able to keep the two of them in this peaceful place.

However, just when both of them breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that a large group of creatures were slowly rushing towards them in the rain, and they seemed to be walking on the ice, looming.

"What is it?" Wu Yue asked.

Lu Weiyi's mental power swept around, his face solemn and confused, "Zombie army."
