Chapter 310, Changes in Xiling
Man-eating zombies? Chu Yuan looked at the girl discreetly and asked Pei Xiao, "What's going on?"
The woman's clamor gave Pei Xiao a headache on the way back to the base. He rubbed his temples and said, "I rescued her outside the Shi family garden. She said she was captured by the Shi family and that they kept a talking zombie in the garden."
The information revealed was too much and too important, so he had to verify it personally.
If the Shi family really had a zombie in the city, and it was a zombie that had evolved intelligence...
"Oh." Chu Yuan's expression was unexpectedly calm. "You just want to investigate this matter?"
Pei Xiao didn't think much about it: "Yeah."
"That's not necessary." Connecting the girl's words with Si Xu's news, Chu Yuan came to an accurate answer, "What she said is true."
Pei Xiao: "What?"
Girl: "It's true! I'm definitely not lying! That zombie can really talk, and it looks just like a normal person. If it weren't for the fact that it eats people, I wouldn't have..."
The girl was so frightened that she kept repeating these meaningless words over and over again.
Pei Xiao had no choice but to interrupt her: "Miss, Captain Chu and I need to exchange very important information. Could you please be quiet for a moment?"
"Oh." The girl stopped talking in disappointment.
Although they said they were exchanging important information, the two of them did not deliberately avoid the strange girls.
"You said she was telling the truth? How do you know..."
"That zombie attacked Brother Seven last night."
"What..." Si Xu and his companions had just left and were not too far from the Dongchao base. "He caught up with Si Xu overnight?"
"Yes, in the latter half of the night," Chu Yuan said. "That zombie's name was Feng Ting. He was a failed experiment from the Dongchao Research Institute and was later approved for destruction. I don't know why, but he suddenly popped up again."
“…”
"Seventh Brother wasn't sure if it was arranged by Shi Yuji, so he asked me to investigate. I didn't expect..."
"It seems that the sudden rise of the Shi family and Shi Yujiao's death are both closely related to this zombie." Pei Xiao quickly calmed down and analyzed, "Shi Yuji kept this zombie in his base so that he could protect him?"
If this is true, then Shi Yuji might have miscalculated.
"I'm afraid it's quite the opposite." Chu Yuan sneered, "That zombie also needs the cover of the crowd. Shi Yuji happens to meet this condition."
It is hard to say who will exploit whom between the intelligent and powerful zombies and the rulers who have risen from ordinary families.
…
After receiving the confirmed news, Pei Xiao prepared to return to the military building to discuss the next course of action with his father.
"Hey." Chu Yuan stopped him and pointed at the bewildered girl beside him. "Take her away—I don't have any extra room for her here."
It's impossible for his own room, and even more impossible for Si Xujiang Ran's room.
But, it is too unfair to let a little girl sleep on the sofa in the living room.
Pei Xiao: "..." He resigned himself to his fate and took the girl back.
…
"What's your name?" On the way back to the manor, the man made small talk. "Why did Shi Yuji arrest you?"
"Yun Man." After being annoyed by his quarrel, the girl replied sparingly, "I don't know why that person arrested me. Maybe it was because of my father."
"Your father?"
"My father's name is Zhang Xianda, and he's the head of the Zhang family."
So that's how it is. This girl is the daughter of the Zhang family of the Zhaoyang base. So Shi Yuji captured her in order to gradually eliminate the enemy?
If that's the case, and she escaped from the Shi family, what would Shi Yuji do?
Pei Xiao glanced at the girl with a complicated expression, but didn't say what he was thinking.
…
Perhaps because it suffered at the hands of Si Xu, the zombie never appeared again until they returned to Beichen Base.
Knowing that they were coming back, Huo Sichan waited at the city gate to greet the three of them.
"I'm back." After glancing at his sister, the young man turned his gaze to Si Xu. "Professor Si, after receiving your message, Mr. will be waiting for you at the research institute."
This trip to Dongchao was originally to support Huo Zhigui, but things are unpredictable. Being able to get the virus vaccine is also something worth being happy about - if this vaccine is real.
Si Xu glanced at Huo Sichan: "Do you have anything else to say?"
Huo Sichan was helpless: I was seen through, was it so obvious?
"On the day you left Beichen, news came from Xiling Base that Shen Yao was missing. Later, I contacted Shen Yang and he said that she was captured by Qin Huai."
Qin Huai arrested Chen Yao? Jiang Ran opened his mouth and squeezed out three words: "Why?"
Wait, the last time she met Qin Huai at the Dongchao base, that guy didn’t mention a word.
Jiang Ran muttered softly: "Qin Huai... is he so stupid?" The beating he received from Si Xu last time was not enough to teach him a lesson. Since they were all in their own way, why should he cause trouble again?
"Shen Yang didn't say much about the specific situation, and I don't know either." Huo Sichan paused and continued, "The day after you left, Luo Yuting left with Luo Rui and Xie Chengzhi."
Seeing his expression, Jiang Ran knew that things were not simple. She asked, "Well, then?"
"A week ago, Xiling Base encountered a wave of zombies. Luo Yuting and his group happened to be not far from Xiling Base, so..."
Jiang Ran showed an "understood" expression: "So, Xie Chengzhi has made another great contribution?"
"If Xie Chengzhi can get the support of the Xiling base management, it will also be a good thing for the Nanjun Luo family." Huo Sichan saw it clearly, "I heard that your brother Shen Yang was seriously injured in that zombie wave."
Jiang Ran, who had been calm and composed, frowned, his eyes slightly cold: "My eldest brother is injured?"
"Xiling Base is in chaos," Huo Sichan said, hinting, "If you go back to Xiling Base now, you might just catch a big show."
"You mean, Luo Yuting allowed his beloved sister to bully my brother at Xiling Base?" Jiang Ran raised a kind smile and clasped his hands together, his knuckles rubbing against each other, making a soft "crackling" sound. "It seems that guy has forgotten the favor I gave him."
What should you do if your child is ungrateful? Just give him a spanking.
…
Si Xu and Jiang Ran went to the research institute to find Tu Su, and Huo Lingyin reluctantly pushed his brother back to the compound.
"Why are you alone?" Where's that idiot Huo Lingge? Why isn't he with Huo Sichan?
Not knowing what he was thinking about, Huo Sichan lowered his eyes and said vaguely: "She is resting."
Seeing the man's red ears, Huo Lingyin was about to speak when her eyes suddenly paused. Huh? This thing on his neck...
He lowered his head, revealing the back of his fair neck, and she saw at a glance the red marks that were out of tune with his fair skin.
Huo Lingyin is not an ignorant child. Since she took over the First Ability Team, there have been many men throwing themselves at her. She is not so stupid as to not know what that mark is.
The girl's mouth twitched: "Huo Sichan, Huo Lingge is just our Huo family's adopted daughter. If you want her, no one will say anything."
She was originally unhappy with Huo Lingge - that guy, taking advantage of his blindness, loved to compete with her since he was a child.
But after experiencing what happened with Huo Zhigui this time, her hostility towards her adopted sister faded a lot.
In the end times, life and death are unpredictable. Being able to meet is fate, so why be too harsh on others?
Huo Sichan frowned: "I... didn't want her."
Tsk tsk, still being stubborn. Huo Lingyin bluntly exposed him: "If you don't want it, where did the hickey on your neck come from? Was it a mosquito bite?"
Huo Sichan was stunned, the crimson color spread from his ears to his entire face, and then uncontrollably stained his neck.
"It's not what you think." He tried to explain, "This... is not..."
It was rare to see his brother so reserved. Huo Lingyin suppressed a laugh and said, "Not what? Not a mosquito bite?"
Huo Sichan: "..."
