Chapter 139, Silent Confession
After walking around the fourth underground floor, Pei Xiao didn't find Jiang Ran and Guo Zhehao, nor was there any sign of the giant python. He realized that something was wrong and was about to go upstairs, but found that the stairs he had come down from were gone.
"It's actually a dual-element ability?" Realizing he'd fallen into a trap, the man kicked the wall in frustration, "Damn it!"
Dual abilities of gold and spirit.
What kind of monster did Beihe Laboratory cultivate?
…
In the storage room, Qi Yao took out a hemostatic bandage from her bag and bandaged Chu Yuan's wound. She then took out various medicines and spread them on the ground and asked Chu Yuan, "Which one can I use?"
Chu Yuan glanced at it and shook his head: "It's useless. The thing Guo Zhehao injected me with was to suppress the diseased virus in my body. It didn't cause any substantial harm to my body. It just made my supernatural power useless."
"Can the special ability be used?" Qi Yao breathed a sigh of relief and muttered, "I hope it's not harmful to the body. I was scared to death."
Why didn’t I realize before that these two sisters are actually very similar, both are optimistic girls.
Chu Yuan stared at the girl for a moment, then raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Qi Yao, thank you."
Did he call her name?
Qi Yao's body suddenly stiffened, and she lowered her head and didn't look at him.
He said thank you?
Why thank her? She had deceived him, used his love for his fiancée to seek a shelter for herself. She had used him, so why thank her?
The girl didn't reply.
Chu Yuan leaned against the wall and gently closed his eyes: "It's good that you survived."
On the way to Beihe Base, he thought a lot.
Whether he wanted to believe it or not, Qi Yuan was dead, he had died four years ago.
The girl he loved deeply died in a car accident four years ago.
Now standing alive in front of him, he thought the girl was Qi Yuan, Qi Yao, who was forced to survive as a person swapped with someone else.
What did she do wrong?
She lived for her parents in the first nineteen years and for her sister in the last four years. She was just a victim in the family struggle. Like his Qi Yuan, she sacrificed her own children for the benefit of the family.
She didn't even think about herself for a moment.
His wish is no longer possible to come back, at least, he hopes that the person he loves can survive in this doomsday.
The man's emotional words floated into her ears, piercing her heart and making it bleed.
The girl sniffed and whispered, "I'm sorry, Chu Yuan."
This should have been told to him a long time ago.
Regardless of the deception of the sisters swapping identities four years ago, or her appearing in front of him in place of Qi Yuan's identity four years later, she owed him a thank you, but fortunately, she could still tell him in person.
"sorry."
She repeated it, lowering her head, not daring to look at him.
Just like a prisoner who has committed a crime, just waiting for the judge's final verdict.
Whether she lives or dies, she accepts her fate.
Chu Yuan smiled softly and said slowly: "I forgive you, Qi Yao."
The girl still didn't look up, but just blinked quickly, and two tears suddenly fell to the ground and bloomed into two small flowers.
Chu Yuan wanted to say something, but he saw out of the corner of his eye that a hand stretched out from the pile of fallen heavy objects and pushed away the cement bricks on top.
"them……"
The man, covered in blood, crawled out from the pile of debris and quickly dug out the other two people buried inside.
"Still alive..."
When the heavy objects fell down, he thought they were doomed.
Qi Yao also noticed the movement outside, and the girl opened her eyes wide.
Due to the effects of the medicine, Chu Yuan still had no strength in his body.
Qi Yao quickly opened the door and rushed out to help.
"Who are you?" The sober team member, who obviously knew Qi Yao, blurted out, "Sister Qi Yuan?" He glanced at the utility room in surprise and blurted out, "Are the reinforcements here?"
"Yes." In order to calm the injured man, Qi Yao lied, "Captain Pei brought people here. They went downstairs to hunt the python. We will wait here for them to come back."
The team member opened his mouth in surprise and murmured, "That's great."
Qi Yao leaned over to check on the two people he had pulled out. One of them had a bloody mess of flesh and blood from the knee down on his right leg. The other one… Qi Yao checked his breath and pulse and said hoarsely, “He’s already…”
"Is he dead?" The team member pursed his lips bitterly and turned his sore eyes away to prevent tears from falling.
"Let's get him in first." Qi Yao made a quick decision. "His right leg is seriously injured, and the bloody smell is strong. It will attract zombies and mutant beasts..."
Before the girl finished her words, a "ho ho" sound was heard at the stairs, and several zombies staggered out of the stairs.
Qi Yao: “…”
The team member also came to his senses, quickly leaned over to help his teammate up, and followed Qi Yao into the utility room.
Seeing Chu Yuan, the light in the team members' eyes became brighter: "Captain, you're okay! That's great!"
"Yeah." Chu Yuan raised his chin, "Stop the bleeding first."
“Yes, yes.”
With Qi Yao's help, the team member quickly treated the injured team member's wounds.
Qi Yao looked at the blood all over the floor and the zombies gathering at the door, and panicked: "The smell of blood is too strong, what should I do?"
There was nothing to clean in the utility room, and the smell of blood drifting outside would only attract more zombies.
The zombies gathered at the door, slamming hard against the heavy iron door and glass, making dull thuds.
The team member who was able to move looked around, stood up, and pushed the tables, chairs, and benches in the room against the door and windows. "We can't hold out like this for long. I hope Captain Pei and the others can come back soon..."
With the speed at which zombies are gathering outside, the door is okay, but the floor-to-ceiling windows, although made of tempered glass, certainly can't withstand the constant pounding of the living dead.
Ranran rolled down the stairs and there was no news of her. Captain Pei went to chase the giant python but did not come back.
Could it be that they have actually already...
As I was thinking this, the glass behind me made a shattering sound.
Attracted by the sound, the zombies squeezed in even more frantically.
The team member leaned against the cabinet, looked at Chu Yuan for help, and almost cried: "Captain, what should we do?"
The captain couldn't move. Qi Yuan was just an ordinary person, and he was a space-type. What should he do? If this continued, he would really be fed to the zombies.
"Ho ho ho!"
The vague whispers of zombies and the sound of banging on glass continued to fill her ears. Qi Yao looked up at the vent above her head and calmed down.
"I'll crawl out." The girl stood up. "I'll crawl out and lure them away."
"What..." The team member also saw the ventilation hole above his head that was only wide enough for one person to pass through.
"Nonsense!" Chu Yuan's face turned cold when he knew what she was thinking. "How are you going to lure them away? You'll die if you crawl out!"
How could an ordinary person lead away hordes of zombies? Just think about it and you can understand what she is planning!
"If we stay here, we'll all die." Qi Yao called out to the team member, "Give me a table to prop up my feet."
The team member hesitated: "I'd better climb out. I'm more familiar with this place..."
"That's perfect." Qi Yao said, "Wait for me to lead those zombies away. If there's a chance, go find the exit."
Qi Yao had already made up her mind. She used the table and chairs to open the vent on the ceiling. The girl looked down at Chu Yuan and said, "It's connected up there. We can go outside."
Outside, I mean the corridor.
"Qi Yao, get down here!" Chu Yuan knew better than anyone what it meant for a girl to do this. He struggled to stand up, but could only fall to the side weakly.
The team member quickly helped him up.
"Qi Yao!"
"Chu Yuan." The girl interrupted his roar and blinked, "In my life, there has never been a moment where I could live for myself."
Chu Yuan was stunned when he met the girl's sad eyes.
"For the first nineteen years, I lived the life my parents liked. For the last four years, I became Qi Yuan. Chu Yuan, only now, the one standing in front of you, is the real Qi Yao. What I'm doing now is what Qi Yao wants to do."
I want to protect you.
I want to protect you, whom I once owed, both for myself and for Qi Yuan's wish.
"Chu Yuan, I'm sorry."
besides.
She moved her lips and said three words silently.
"you……"
"Thank you for the gift." The girl smiled. "Qi Yuan gave me the camera. I like it very much."
She climbed up the vent somewhat clumsily, muttering to herself, "You still owe me a barbecue. Once we get out..."
In the narrow ventilation duct, the girl's voice was a little muffled.
"Let's go have a barbecue together, Chu Yuan."
