Chapter 308 Where did he come from?
After returning to the resting place, Huo Lingyin tactfully stayed in the living room to keep watch. Jiang Ran took Si Xu upstairs to clean his wounds.
"Why are there so many injuries? Is that zombie really that powerful?"
Si Xu took off his shirt, took out some disinfectant from his space and stuffed it into her hand: "His ability is quite special."
Release space externally, at least no one he knew of who had the space ability could do this.
"Special powers?" Jiang Ran recalled the ethereal outer wall she had encountered. She guessed, "Is he also a space-based person like you?"
"Yes, a high-level psychic with both space and gold abilities."
Jiang Ran was silent for a moment, remembering her discovery. She frowned and said, "When you were fighting, I studied the blood that fell on the ground. The blood of that zombie didn't have a rancid smell, unlike that of ordinary zombies."
He doesn't look like a zombie, but more like a human being, like a newborn baby, whose movements are not yet smooth.
No stench? In a flash, Si Xu finally remembered where he had heard that name.
"The wind stopped." He said, "That guy said his name was the wind stopped."
"Feng Ting? What kind of name is that?" Surname Feng? But would any parent give their child such a... random name?
"Could it be that guy?" Si Xu muttered, thinking it was impossible, "They actually succeeded in their research?"
Not understanding what he was saying, Jiang Ran silently applied medicine to him.
…
If Feng Ting is really the person mentioned in the information, and he came here this time for the virus vaccine, then who does he take orders from?
Pei Qing is a trustworthy person and he shouldn't keep such a monster around. As for Shi Yuji... would Feng Ting willingly submit to a dreamer like Shi Yuji whose ability and ambition are completely mismatched?
No, no matter who is behind him, now they must rush to Beichen Base as soon as possible and hand over the vaccine to Tu Su.
Thinking of this, Si Xu gently hooked Jiang Ran's hand and said softly, "Jiang Ran."
"Um?"
"It's my fault today. I shouldn't have let you do whatever you want." If this Feng Ting was the guy he knew, then he had made an unforgivable mistake by allowing Jiang Ran to challenge him today.
"Is that guy very powerful?" He was so serious that Jiang Ran couldn't help but get nervous. "But, didn't you defeat him?"
He threw down the smoke bomb and ran away, which meant that he realized he was no match for Si Xu - they won, didn't they?
"It's not me, it's you." Sisila sat down beside her, "Next time you see him, remember to stay away from him."
"Why?"
"That guy wasn't just an ordinary person who was infected and turned into a zombie, but was artificially transformed." That's why his supernatural powers improved by leaps and bounds, and he reached the level of enlightenment in just one year.
"Artificially... modified?" Jiang Ran understood. "He was also a failed experiment?"
Chu Yuan once said that Qin Huai was a failed test subject because his body could not fully adapt to the virus, causing his eyes to turn light gold.
Laboratories usually destroy experimental subjects directly.
This Feng Ting...did he escape from the laboratory when the disaster happened, or like Qin Huai, he had long been out of the laboratory's control and was wandering outside?
"He is not just a failed test subject." The laboratory defines a failed test subject as one whose body cannot adapt to the virus and suffers from physiological disorders. Before escaping from the laboratory, Qin Huai could be called a "failed test subject", but Feng Ting could not.
"He, like Qin Huai after he escaped from the laboratory, is classified as an S-level monster."
"Qin Huai is special because of his special abilities, what about him?"
"His body accepted the virus and then completed the transformation into a zombie."
What does this mean?
If his body could accept the virus, shouldn't he have awakened his superpowers like Si Xu and the others? How could he have turned into a zombie?
"Feng Ting is a Grade A experimental subject at the Dongchao Research Institute. I previously received a document related to him—a request to destroy the experimental subject."
The researchers at the Dongchao Research Institute created an uncontrollable monster. After the experimental subject turned into a zombie, they found that no matter how they transformed him, he could no longer be restored to a human being, so they chose to destroy him.
"Because it was an A-level experimental subject, the destruction approval required the signature and seal of the head of the Sifang Research Institute. I gave that information to the head of the laboratory in charge at the time." It was at that time that he saw the name of the poor experimental subject.
"But he wasn't destroyed." Jiang Ran frowned. "Did anyone in charge of the research institute disagree?"
"With my authority at the time, I couldn't review Category A documents." Besides, there was no need for him to meddle in the affairs of two strangers.
"There are only two possibilities now. Either the Dongchao Research Institute didn't destroy him, or someone secretly saved him. In fact, to confirm these two questions, we just need to ask Captain Chu to help inquire about and investigate the situation at the Dongchao Research Institute at that time." For such an important A-level experimental subject, the institute must have relevant records.
"Well, I'll contact Chu Yuan."
They knew too little about this enemy - an unknown enemy is the most terrifying, not to mention that the enemy seemed to know everything about them.
…
Shi Yujiao died suddenly of illness. After receiving the news from the Shi family, Pei Qing did not ask many questions, but simply instructed Pei Xiao to go to mourn the deceased on his behalf.
Knowing that the woman's death was very strange, Pei Xiao paid tribute to the deceased and then avoided the Shi family and left the hall.
This was his first time visiting the Shi family. Shi Yuji was wary of him and arranged for an old servant to follow him, saying that he was introducing the manor, but in fact, he was monitoring him.
"That's the garden over there." The old servant had very few teeth left, and his words were slurred. "That's where Mr. Shi's guests live. Outsiders are not allowed to disturb them on weekdays. Master Pei, let's take a detour."
Guests staying in the garden? Pei Xiao was puzzled, but remained calm. "A detour? Does this garden cover a large area?"
Worried that he would cause trouble if he refused to take the detour, the old servant quickly said, "It's not big, only about 500 square meters."
More than 500 square meters... Pei Xiao estimated the area of the garden and roughly located the position of the back wall - since the main gate was not allowed to enter, he could only go around the back.
…
A day and a night passed, and the zombie did not come back... The whole garden was silent, with no one there.
The hungry girl wiped the sweat from her forehead and continued to shovel the soil on the ground with the shovel in her hand.
As long as she works harder, she will be able to dig a way out before the monster comes back.
…
After bidding farewell to Shi Yuji and refusing the men's farewell, Pei Xiao explained the situation to his teammates and quietly left the team when they arrived at the city gate.
What kind of guests need to stay in the garden?
Considering the sudden rise of the Shi family, he couldn't help but wonder if it was related to the guest who lived in the garden and couldn't see anyone.
The man avoided the surveillance, climbed over the wall and went straight to the back wall of the garden.
…
After the guests left, the security in the garden where Feng Ting lived returned to its previous state - in order not to arouse suspicion from others, Shi Yuzhi deliberately transferred a large number of patrolling guards.
Pei Xiao didn't expect that there would suddenly be so many special ability teams patrolling the periphery. He waited for three minutes and was about to find a gap to sneak in when he saw a thin figure climbing up the back wall of the garden with difficulty. Then, when the alarm suddenly sounded, he was so scared that he fell straight down from the top of the wall.
Pei Xiao: "..."
What's going on? Shi Yuji doesn't allow outsiders to enter because he wants to keep a beautiful woman in his garden?
