Chapter 429 Gu Wan – Heart Hard as Iron!
He Zhuo's expression gradually became complicated: "Later, Grandpa Si found his long-lost grandson and asked us to take good care of him."
Remembering Grandpa Si's kindness, we readily agreed. That little grandson is Si Sheng.
"At first, that kid was really quiet..." He Zhuo imitated Si Sheng's gloomy expression from back then.
He always has a stern face, like a wolf cub, and his eyes are always fierce, as if he's ready to pounce and bite you at any moment.
But remembering Grandpa Si's kindness, we took him everywhere we went—to school, to meals, to fights—and gradually we became close.
He Zhuo sighed, "Who knew... that kid was a monster at heart!"
Gu Wan: "How exactly is it perverted...?"
He Zhuo made a trembling gesture: "Our pets, one day a rabbit is missing, the next day a cat is missing, and then we found out that he had secretly taken them all home to dissect them!"
The scariest thing is—"
He deliberately drew out his words and looked at Gu Wan: "He even stole Gu Wanwan when she was a child!"
Because the Gu family was very busy at that time, Gu Wanwan was taken care of by Gu Qi and the nanny, and often hung out with us.
Gu Wan: "What? I don't remember any of this at all?"
Gu Qi glanced at her: "At your age, you can't even control your bodily functions, what can you possibly remember?"
Gu Wan: "Brother! Can't you be a little more civilized? You're covered in poop and pee... what's with your image?"
He Zhuo: "Do you want to hear what happens next?"
"Listen to me! Continue..."
He Zhuo: "That day we discovered that Gu Wanwan was missing, and we were frantic, searching everywhere for her."
When they finally tracked down the surveillance footage, they found Wanwan lying on the floor of Si Sheng's house, her face covered with a huge pillow!
Gu Wan gasped, instantly bristling: "He...no way? He's not trying to suffocate me, is he?"
Shi Xu: "If it had been any later...maybe!"
Gu Wan: "Holy crap! What grudge do we have? I'm sworn enemies with him!"
"After that incident, although Grandpa Si apologized to our family, my parents still wouldn't allow me to take Wanwan to play with Si Sheng anymore..."
He Zhuo continued, "Later, a new friend we met suddenly disappeared."
We searched everywhere, and finally, Yan-ge led us and Grandpa Si to their door, only to find that Si Sheng had tied him up in his old home.
Gu Qi picked up the conversation: "When we arrived, Si Sheng had already prepared the surgical instruments and was about to cut someone open."
We also found videos of him torturing and killing our pets in that basement; the footage...
He Zhuo: "It became a childhood nightmare for all of us! Later, Grandpa Si sent Si Sheng to see a doctor."
Because the friend was ultimately unharmed, and Grandpa Si provided compensation, the matter was dropped.
Gu Qi: "But... less than two months later, he somehow came back..."
He Zhuo immediately took over the conversation, putting himself into performance mode and beginning to tell the story with great emotion.
"You wouldn't believe it! I was sleeping soundly that night when I vaguely felt someone watching me."
The moment I opened my eyes—oh my god!—I saw him standing at the foot of my bed, the moonlight illuminating his deathly pale face, a gleaming scalpel in his hand!
He gave an exaggerated shiver: "That kid calmly said, 'Brother Zhuo, your eyes are so beautiful, can I keep them as a keepsake?' It gave me goosebumps! I almost died on the spot!"
He Zhuo patted his chest, looking like he was still shaken: "If I hadn't reacted quickly, I would have jumped off the bed."
We ran out the door. Gu Wanwan and I don't even know how many times we've been reincarnated!
You didn't see his eyes, they were so calm I'm having nightmares about them... It was like he was considering the perfect way to make the cut!
Gu Wan was horrified: "And then? That was the end of it?"
Gu Qi sighed, his tone tinged with helplessness: "Later, Grandpa Si personally came to apologize, going door to door to beg for forgiveness, and repeatedly promised that he would definitely send Si Sheng abroad for treatment and would never let him sneak back again..."
Out of respect for Grandpa Si, He Zhuo's parents and my parents all agreed.
When he reappeared, it was around the time we were in college. He seemed much more normal on the surface, but who knows what he'd changed inside?
Lu Nange: "Then who was that Jin Xiao just now?"
Chi Yanzhou: "Jin Xiao is our junior high school classmate. He's a pretty good person, and we've kept in touch over the years."
As for him and Si Sheng, they were university classmates and had a good relationship.
Gu Wan couldn't help but curl her lip, her tone full of disdain: "Can't we just leave his leg untreated? Can't we just let him fend for himself? Saving someone like that would only bring trouble!"
Gu Qi: "This leg must be treated. Only when it's healed can we repay Grandpa Si's kindness."
Besides, think about it: only when Si Sheng is well will Starlight Base have protection, and only then can the safety of those female ability users be guaranteed. Aren't you also worried about them?
Gu Wan snorted coldly: "I won't be so kind anymore!"
Ever since that sweet girl and her mother betrayed me, I've completely cut off all emotional ties! Now, my heart is as hard as iron!
Shi Xu: "Now that I've repaid Grandpa Si's favor, I don't need to hold back when we meet again."
Gu Wan's eyes lit up: "Okay! Save him first, then kill him! Perfect!"
Chi Yanzhou turned to look at Wen Qing: "Sister Wen Qing..."
Wen Qing: "Don't worry, Xiao Chi. Lin Shuang is only at level one healing level, so it's normal that she can't be cured... I'm at level four now, so I should be fine."
Gu Wan gritted her teeth: "Heal him, then let me take my revenge!"
Standing to the side, Lu Nange seemed lost in thought: [As expected... the protagonist's halo... Lin Shuang was clearly an important healing character in the original work, but now that she's not with the male lead's group, her superpower level is only level one!]
With a wave of her hand, five cars reappeared on the road: "Let's go, let's find the level-five crystal core. Then you can take your revenge however you want!"
Gu Wan immediately perked up: "Nan Nan, you really understand me! Let's go... a level five fire-element crystal core is beckoning me!"
The group got back into the cars, and with the roar of engines, the convoy continued speeding towards the suburbs.
After driving for about twenty minutes, the vehicle slowly came to a stop in front of a special location.
He Zhuo was the first to jump out of the car, looking at the building in front of him: "This fence, this decor, it's totally prison style!"
Gu Qi got out of the car: "Anyone with eyes can see that..."
Lu Nange: "The areas we've passed through along the way are all inhabited by low-level zombies, which is pretty much what we guessed before."
The high-level zombies should all be kept in a specific location by that 'boss'.
To find high-level zombies, we can only come to places like these—suburban prisons, abandoned factories, or large underground facilities...
