Chapter 367, For the King
Qian Duoduo brought the two of them back home, and Qian Miaomiao was about to go out.
Seeing her brother coming back, she said with a bitter face: "Brother."
Seeing his sister's expression, Qian Duoduo guessed what had happened. He suddenly became angry: "What on earth does that girl mean?! I told you, but you don't know. She calls you over every day. Are you crazy?"
Qian Miaomiao quickly covered her brother's mouth and smiled bitterly: "Brother, keep your voice down. Boss Qin is not here. If you anger that guy, our family will be finished!"
Knowing that his sister was right, Qian Duoduo angrily shook off her hand and sighed helplessly: "I'll go with you."
"No need." Qian Miaomiao patted her face. "I'm used to it. If you go, she'll be worried."
"Um..." Jiang Ran raised his hand, interrupting their conversation, "Excuse me, but may I ask where your sister is going?"
Qian Miaomiao then looked at the two people following behind her brother. The moment she saw Qiao Yi, her eyes widened and she blurted out, "Wow, handsome guy!"
Qian Duoduo was speechless at his sister's infatuation and could only introduce them: "These two are from Xiling Base, Boss Qin's friends."
"Xiling Base?" Qian Miaomiao didn't even think about it. "Isn't that with Brother Xue..."
"Miaomiao!" Although these two people came from Xiling Base, their identities have yet to be verified. Qian Duoduo scolded his sister and signaled her not to say more.
"Do you know Xue Weixin?" Jiang Ran was a smart person. Seeing the two siblings' reactions, she said bluntly, "Xue Weixin and I are old acquaintances. This time when we came to Yancheng Base, his friends asked us to help keep an eye out for news about Xue Weixin. Do you know where Xue Weixin is?"
The younger sister let the cat out of the bag, and Qian Duoduo could only say, "That Luo Shuai is also an old friend of Brother Xue, and now he's just thinking about killing Brother Xue—I'm sorry, we just met today, I can't believe what you said."
After Qian Duoduo said this, Jiang Ran was certain that Luo Shuai was Luo Rui.
She spoke slowly and calmly, "If I wanted to betray you, I could go out and find Luo Shuai right now and tell her about your relationship with Qin Huai and Xue Weixin."
"You!" Qian Miaomiao got anxious when she heard this, waving her claws and rushing towards Jiang Ran, "My brother brought you back out of kindness, and you dare to threaten us!"
The moment the girl rushed over, Qiao Yi was quicker to grab her hand and push her away: "Don't touch her."
Qian Miaomiao was stunned for three seconds, then angrily said, "Brother! They are bad guys, beat them up!"
Qian Duoduo held his forehead with his hand and said, "Miaomiao, when will you be able to control your noisy temper?"
Knowing that Jiang Ran was telling the truth, the young man comforted his sister and made a concession: "How about this, I can take you to see Xue Weixin. He is not in a good condition now. It would be best if you can help."
…
In the basement with a hidden entrance, a man was lying on the bed with his eyes closed and a look of defeat on his face.
The wound on his chest was oozing blood, his arm was wrapped in bandages, and a faint stench of decay could be smelled.
Hearing the noise, the man barely focused his attention. Seeing Jiang Ran and Qiao Yi, he felt as if he was hallucinating: "Miss Jiang? Qiao Yi? You..."
"Brother Xue!" Qiao Yi had known him in the lab for so many years, and he had never seen him in such a state of disarray. The boy's eyes were slightly hot as he squatted down beside the bed. "How are you? Sister Ranran and I are here to take you home."
"I, cough, cough, cough!" Xue Weixin had just said one word when he was interrupted by a violent cough.
"Brother Xue!" Qiao Yi quickly patted his shoulder, "Brother Xue, are you okay?"
Seeing Xue Weixin like this, Jiang Ran frowned: "You put him here, didn't you find a doctor for him?"
The wound has already rotted. If we delay any further, even a god may not be able to save it.
Qian Duoduo's face was filled with helplessness. "Brother Xue was brought back by my sister, who was given the responsibility by Miss Shen. We were planning to find a doctor at first, but Boss Qin and Miss Shen disappeared, and that General Luo took over. They were all looking for Brother Xue in the whole city. We had no choice but to hide him first."
"Go find a doctor." Jiang Ran's voice was cold.
"Seeking a doctor will definitely alert Luo Shuai..."
"Then let Luo Shuai come find me." Jiang Ran sneered, "Anyway, she has done this, and I have no intention of reconciling with her."
"This..." Qian Duoduo glanced at his sister and whispered, "Let's do as Miss Jiang said and go find a doctor."
Qian Miaomiao, who had long disliked Luo Shuai and wanted to fight her to the death, saw someone who was equally fearless coming. She immediately regained her former vitality and ran to find a doctor.
…
While waiting for the doctor to arrive, Jiang Ran used the emergency medicine they brought to carefully clean Xue Weixin's wound.
When she was rummaging through her bag, she saw the life-saving medicine that Mr. Tu Su had given her. Jiang Ran took out a pill and handed it to Qiao Yi: "Feed it to him."
Without asking what it was, Qiao Yi lifted Xue Weixin's head and fed him the black pill.
Watching the two's actions, Qian Duoduo, who was isolated on the side, was thoughtful: "Miss Jiang...you are not Boss Qin's lover. You came here specifically to see Brother Xue, right?"
He was originally wondering how a man of Qin Huai's temperament could abandon his woman at Xiling Base. Now it seemed that what Miss Jiang had just said was all lies - they came for Xue Weixin, or perhaps, they originally came for Qin Huai, but Qin Huai disappeared.
Jiang Ran had initially only come to test the situation at the Yancheng base. Now that she had almost figured out what was going on, she didn't intend to continue hiding it: "That's not the case - I didn't lie to you. Chen Yao is my sister, and I came to Yancheng this time to find her."
"Are you really Miss Shen's sister?" Qian Duoduo looked at Jiang Ran, "You two do look a bit alike..."
"Of course." Jiang Ran said as a matter of course, "The blood relationship is there."
“…”
"By the way, what's going on with your sister? She seemed to be getting ready to go out when we just came in."
Speaking of this, Qian Duoduo was speechless: "My sister has a good relationship with Miss Shen. Didn't Boss Qin and Miss Shen disappear? Luo Shuai always thinks they are hiding. He calls my sister to chat with her every day, but in fact, he is just trying to find out information - the key is, my sister really doesn't know where Boss Qin and the others have gone!"
"Can you tell me specifically how Qin Huai and Shen Yao disappeared?"
Qian Duoduo shook his head: "That day, Miaomiao asked me to take Brother Xue home. When I returned, everyone there was saying that Boss Qin had disappeared... I don't know the details."
Why would Qin Huai disappear with Chen Yao for no reason?
"What's the situation with Luo Shuai?"
"Well, it's a long story..."
"Try to keep this short, we don't have much time."
Qian Duoduo tried hard to organize his words and said in short: "Luo Shuai's lover was the prey captured by Boss Qin, and she came to Yancheng just to find her lover.
"I heard from those who were there that day that the man was seriously injured, and then Boss Qin threw him out to fight zombies. His wounds were not treated and were almost completely rotten.
"When Luo Shuai found him, he was on his last breath and is still being kept alive by doctors.
"We at Yancheng Base have always believed in strength above all else. Even though that woman's legs were crippled, her ability level was so high that it overwhelmed everyone in the base. She directly beat down the person who provoked her.
"Boss Qin happened to be away, so she killed several of his closest associates who opposed her, and then everyone..."
Blood and killing are always the most powerful weapons to intimidate people, no matter whether they are ordinary people or people with special abilities.
Jiang Ran clicked her tongue twice: "I didn't expect Luo Rui and Xie Chengzhi to end up like this."
Ever since Luo Yuting told her that Xie Chengzhi was taken away by Qin Huai, she guessed that the man would not have a good ending... Even she, an old friend, would feel a little emotional, so how would Luo Rui, who deeply loved Xie Chengzhi, feel?
…
I don’t know what method Qian Miaomiao used to bring the doctor back. The middle-aged doctor went down to the basement and saw the person lying on the bed. His face changed.
"Is this the person Luo Shuai is looking for?!" the doctor trembled. "Miao Miao, Duo Duo, aren't you making things difficult for me? If I save him, Luo Shuai will kill him later—"
The black muzzle of the gun was pressed against his forehead. The girl he had never seen before had a cold expression and a cold voice: "If you don't treat her, I will kill you now."
"you--!"
"Cure? Or not?" Jiang Ran sneered, "There are many doctors at Yancheng Base, and we don't need you. If you die, I can replace him with someone else. There will always be someone willing to treat him."
Frightened by the gun in the woman's hand, the doctor suppressed his anger and humbly replied, "Miss, it's not that I'm standing by and watching someone die. Commander Luo has issued a death order to all doctors at the base. If we disobey, our entire family will be doomed."
Jiang Ran said calmly, "Don't worry, that Luo Shuai you mentioned will be kicked out of that position soon."
The doctor's eyes lit up: "You mean..."
"Yes, I said so." Jiang Ran gestured for him to go to the bedside, "Luo Rui is about to fall, you don't have to worry about those things."
How dare you say that? You can only lie to an old doctor who has never seen the world.
Qian Miaomiao curled her lips, walked to her brother, and whispered: "If Doctor Li doesn't treat her, will she really kill someone?"
Qian Duoduo didn't even think about it: "I don't know."
“…”
"I'm not Miss Jiang, so I have no way of knowing what she's thinking. But if it were me, I would." In order to protect the people you care about, you need to sacrifice some unimportant people - such a choice is not a difficult task for him.
Looking at the doctor who was treating Xue Weixin under Jiang Ran's coercion, Qian Miaomiao muttered, "This woman made such a fuss that she dragged our family into this. How annoying."
Knowing that his sister was tough on the outside but soft on the inside, Qian Duoduo chuckled: "Haven't you always wanted to save him? Now someone has done what you wanted for you, why are you being so hesitant? Huh?"
Qian Miaomiao raised her head and snorted, pretending not to hear the sarcasm in her brother's words.
…
The windows of the room were opened, and the breeze was gentle and the sun was warm.
Luo Rui placed the newly picked lotus in the vase and whispered softly, "Chengzhi, there's a pond behind this yard. The lotus pods in it are almost old. I finally found this lotus. When your injury heals, let's go pick some lotus pods together."
The person on the bed didn't answer her.
As if she was already used to this, Luo Rui pushed the wheelchair to the bedside and made up the quilt for the man: "The temperature has dropped in the past two days. If you feel cold, remember to tell me and I will have someone send another quilt over."
The man blinked, but still didn't answer.
Luo Rui leaned over and kissed his eyes gently: "Don't worry, I will heal your injuries, I will find Qin Huai to avenge you, and also Chen Yao, Shen Yang, Jiang Ranran..."
The name of her enemy came out of her mouth, tainted with strong hatred and resentment, like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity, just waiting to swallow the enemy alive.
"I will make them die a miserable death, a miserable death!"
Outside, someone knocked on the door three times.
Luo Rui's distorted face instantly returned to calm.
She put on a gentle smile and pushed her wheelchair over to open the door.
"Liu Yi? What's the matter?"
In order to gain power, Qin Huai adopted extremely bloody means to suppress those who disobeyed him, resulting in a lot of people in the base who disliked him but dared not stand up to oppose him.
After Luo Rui came to power, she killed Qin Huai's confidants and promoted those psychics who were at odds with Qin Huai to serve her, completing the change of dynasty in the base in a short period of time.
The psychic who came to report the news was the one she promoted.
The man's name was Liu Yi, a third-level wind-type mutant. His brother was defeated in a battle with Qin Huai and was hung on the city wall by Qin Huai to be fed to zombies. Since then, he has hated Qin Huai with a vengeance.
Now that he was promoted by Luo Rui, the man was grateful, and when he heard that Luo Rui was going to deal with Qin Huai, he worked extra hard and seriously on a daily basis.
"Commander Luo, there's news from our spy."
The man handed Lori some photos.
"Oh?" Luo Rui glanced at it casually and sneered, "I knew this Qian Miaomiao wasn't a quiet person."
She remembered that when she met Xue Weixin that day, the man was seriously injured.
She was certain that Xue Weixin would not be able to leave Yancheng Base in the short term, so she took control of all the doctors in Yancheng Base and gave them orders not to treat patients without her permission, and to report to her immediately if they found any suspicious people.
After waiting for so many days, there was still no news of Xue Weixin - he did not appear at the Yancheng base, and the Qian family did not find a doctor to treat him.
Occasionally, she would doubt whether there was something wrong with her judgment, but her intuition and experience told her that Qian Miaomiao knew Xue Weixin's whereabouts.
Liu Yi said that Qian Miaomiao was Chen Yao's friend. Xue Weixin was so badly injured, and when Chen Yao wanted to find a place to accommodate him, the first person she would consider must be a trustworthy friend.
In the entire Yancheng base, it seems that the only person that Chen Yao can trust is Qian Miaomiao.
Since the spies had no news, she often found excuses to ask Qian Miaomiao to come over and chat with her, but the woman was tight-lipped and no matter how much she talked, she never revealed any flaws.
Fortunately, God will not let down those who work hard.
Luo Rui smiled with satisfaction: "Keep watching and see what those two idiots from the Qian family are going to do."
"yes."
"If you are discovered, bring them back to me. If they resist, kill them on the spot."
"yes!"
