Chapter 148 The Apocalyptic Little Zombie Was Raised by a Cold and Aloof Doctor for 15 Years
This means that Yu Sheng is likely to leave Base S.
He Wanshu's face immediately turned cold.
"Commander Xie, is this what you call a promise?"
Xie Huaiyun smiled slightly and swiveled his chair left and right. "I said I could keep Yu Sheng's zombie identity a secret, but I did not promise you that Yu Sheng could stay."
"I'm sorry, Professor He, but I will never change this."
He Wanshu clenched her fists tightly, her tone leaving no room for refusal: "Yu Sheng cannot leave. If Yu Sheng is to leave, then I will naturally leave with him."
Xie Huaiyun made a gesture indicating "please go ahead".
"S Base can function without Professor He, but if you, Professor He, were to leave S Base, I'm very curious..." Xie Huaiyun rested his chin on his hand, smiling enigmatically, "An ordinary person without superpowers, even with excellent training, would probably be unable to withstand the zombies outside, wouldn't he?"
"What's more... Professor He, you're a research fanatic. If you leave Base S, there will be no one to supply you with all kinds of experimental materials. As for other bases, they simply can't afford to support you."
As Xie Huaiyun recounted these facts, he seemed convinced that He Wanshu would back down, thus allowing Yu Sheng to leave the S base.
He Wanshu chuckled, propped her hands on the table, and leaned closer to Xie Huaiyun's face. "Xie Huaiyun, who told you I'm just an ordinary person without any special abilities?"
"Wh-what?" Xie Huaiyun was taken aback for a moment.
They seemed not to have guessed that He Wanshu had concealed the fact that he was a superhuman.
"When will you..."
"I've always had special abilities, but it's best not to reveal all my trump cards in front of the shrewd and calculating Commander Xie."
Xie Huaiyun sighed, "But so what? You're alone with a zombie. Do you really think you can escape unscathed if you encounter a zombie horde?"
"Then there's no need for Commander Xie to worry. If we really encounter a large-scale zombie horde, I will peacefully wait to become a zombie."
After he said that, Xie Huaiyun's face turned green.
If he turns into a zombie, then humanity will truly be on the verge of extinction!
Given He Wanshu's current state, he's definitely not going to have any peace.
Since the negotiations failed, He Wanshu turned to leave, but paused before she did, saying, "Oh, right, I almost forgot to mention, Sheng Sheng is the Zombie King..."
Xie Huaiyun thought about it carefully and instantly realized what was wrong.
He had previously wondered how Yu Sheng, who was clearly a zombie, could look so human. The most powerful zombies he had ever seen were just a little smarter. This was the first time he had ever seen a zombie like Yu Sheng.
But if Yu Sheng were the Zombie King, then everything would make sense.
He Wanshu ignored Xie Huaiyun's calls and continued walking forward on his own.
"He Wanshu, you come back here right now! I promise you, okay?!"
He Wanshu stopped in her tracks, loosened her grip on the doorknob, and turned to look at him. "Commander Xie, what do you mean by this?"
"I'm really scared of you," Xie Huaiyun sighed softly. "Alright, Yu Sheng can stay at Base S, but you need to develop a drug to deal with zombies as soon as possible..."
"No way!" He Wanshu refused him outright.
"No, bro, what are you up to now?"
"I can't research drugs to fight zombies, but I can try to make a drug that can turn zombies back into humans..."
Xie Huaiyun: "..."
Do I look like a three-year-old to you?
You can turn zombies back into humans, yet you can't develop a drug to deal with them?
Hmph, she's clearly just afraid he'll use that potion on Yu Sheng, isn't she?!
He had seen through all of He Wanshu's thoughts.
Just as Xie Huaiyun guessed, He Wanshu wanted Yu Sheng to turn back into a human.
"Um... if I may ask, Professor He, has your taste always been so unique?"
"You know it's presumptuous of you to ask?" He Wan replied expressionlessly. "I'm also curious, Commander Xie, have you always been this perverted?"
"How am I a pervert?!"
He Wanshu chuckled, "You're already a pseudo-orthopedic doctor, how can you not be a pervert?"
Xie Huaiyun had nothing to say.
Because what He Wanshu said was true.
"But speaking of which..." Xie Huaiyun changed the subject, asking him with a hint of doubt, "Professor He, did you develop feelings for him after rescuing him like a hero?"
He Wanshu frowned and corrected him, "Yu Sheng and I don't have that kind of relationship."
Now it was Xie Huaiyun's turn to be shocked and confused. "Professor He, are you kidding me? If you didn't like Yu Sheng, would you have indulged him like this? Even to the point of almost killing Old Bai's grandson for him? And you still want to develop a potion that can turn zombies back into humans?"
Faced with Xie Huaiyun's questioning, He Wanshu visibly hesitated for a few seconds.
Then he shook his head and said, "He's just my friend."
Xie Huaiyun nodded as well.
I understand, he's my boyfriend.
Sigh~ When will he finally win A-Fan's heart?
Xie Huaiyun felt increasingly distressed. He secretly cursed his deceased parents for meddling and causing his childhood friend to become his younger brother, making his relationship with Shen Fan very awkward now.
"Where is Yu Sheng?" He Wanshu asked.
"Don't worry, I wouldn't dare touch your people. He and Liang Mengze are doing special training at the training base, saying they don't want to have to wait for you to rescue them next time."
He Wanshu nodded and then opened the door.
Unexpectedly, he saw Shen Fan with a blank expression outside the door.
He Wanshu and Xie Huaiyun were both taken aback.
When Xie Huaiyun saw Shen Fan outside the door, his heart skipped a beat. He carefully observed the expression on Shen Fan's face, but could not discern anything from it.
But he wasn't sure exactly how much Shen Fan had heard.
After He Wanshu left, Xie Huaiyun chuckled and put his arm around Shen Fan's shoulder, saying, "Ah Fan has become naughty; he even eavesdrops on my conversations now."
He stared intently at Shen Fan.
Xie Huaiyun was trying to confirm whether Shen Fan had actually heard those words.
Shen Fan's face remained expressionless. He slapped the hand off his shoulder and then deliberately kept a step's distance from Xie Huaiyun.
"I told you, you reek of smoke, stay away from me."
"Okay, okay, I won't smoke anymore, alright? I'll do whatever my A-Fan says."
Shen Fan pursed her lips and turned her head to the side. "Xie Huaiyun, are you really so comfortable with Yu Sheng staying at the S base?"
Xie Huaiyun's smile faded. "I'm worried, but what can I do?"
“S Base cannot do without He Wanshu. I originally wanted to pressure him to let Yu Sheng leave S Base, but I did not expect He Wanshu to be so insistent.”
Xie Huaiyun wearily pinched the bridge of his nose, his eyes revealing his weariness. "Besides..."
