Chapter 296: Confession
"What's wrong? Is it because these words are a bit too abrupt, so you can't accept it for a while?"
"But if I don't tell you now, I'm afraid I won't have the chance in the future."
Zhong Li smiled bitterly, shook his head, and looked at Jiang Mi, feeling a little at a loss.
But unexpectedly, Jiang Mi actually laughed. Seeing Zhong Li seriously injured in order to save her, her heart ached and she was confused.
But she still comforted him, shook her head and said, "It's really insincere to confess at this time, but I agree to you."
"How about this, when we get back to the base, you can give me another one, okay? So you must not give up now, we will definitely be able to get out of here."
Jiang Mi said this and tightly grasped Zhong Li's arm.
Zhong Li seemed a little surprised. He didn't expect Jiang Mi would actually agree to him. He wiped the sweat from his forehead. Although his body was very weak, he was very happy in his heart.
"You really agreed?"
"Of course. Actually, I've had a crush on you for a long time. But you've been approaching me intentionally or unintentionally, and you always say some strange things, so I don't dare to get too close to you."
"But it's different now. Since you've already told me, why should I hide it?"
When Jiang Mi said this, he narrowed his eyes slightly, still feeling a little hesitant.
Knowing that Zhong Li was seriously injured and was weak, he didn't know whether he should use his abilities to save him.
Or should I wait a little longer?
Will this expose myself?
Many things appeared in Jiang Mi's mind, making him at a loss for a moment.
Zhong Li was very excited, he hugged Jiang Mi tightly, and mumbled some words of missing her.
And the other side.
Jiang Xun and his men searched the base but still found nothing. He felt that the search was meaningless, so he prepared to come back and discuss with Jiang Mi how to find the two people effectively.
But unexpectedly, after wandering around the room for a long time, Jiang Mi still didn't come back.
Those who had gone out to look for them have also returned one after another. By dark, there was still no sign of Jiang Mi and Zhong Li.
At this moment, everyone was a little panicked.
"That's weird, where did these two people go?"
"We were wandering around the base just now, but we didn't see any trace of the two people. Could it be that they left the base?"
"How is this possible? It's already dark now. If we leave the base at this time, it might be dangerous."
Everyone was talking one after another, and for a moment they all seemed a little anxious.
Zhao Xiao's disappearance is enough to prove that the base is not safe.
Now that Zhong Li and Jiang Mi both disappeared at the same time, everyone felt even more uneasy.
"Everyone, don't worry. Grab your weapons and go out with me to look for it."
Jiang Xun couldn't sit still for even a minute. How could he accept that his sister was missing?
Without saying a word, he chased after him.
Following the movements of the previous two people, everyone found the backyard.
"Look, there seems to be someone shooting mutants outside the base."
"Looking at the way they did it, it should be Zhong Li and his group. Did they go into the woods? Let's chase them out and take a look!"
Everyone was afraid to waste time and quickly chased after him.
The road was littered with deformed corpses, which once again confirmed that the two men were in danger.
Jiang Xun was getting impatient and started shouting loudly.
"Sister, where are you? If you hear any sound, just respond."
Jiang Xun no longer cared about whether it would cause a commotion among the mutants, nor did he care about whether it would attract these mutants to come. In a word, finding his sister was the most important thing.
Everyone was searching here.
At this moment, people from the National Research Institute have also arrived at the base.
"You are Lulu, right?"
Someone from the National Research Institute came to pick Lulu up for treatment and try to resolve the side effects.
Xiaofei had been staying by Lulu's side the whole time, so she was naturally happy to see people from the National Research Institute coming over.
He then handed the person over to them, while he stayed in the base.
But I always feel a little confused, and I don’t know where Jiang Mi is and when he will come back?
It was completely dark.
Visibility was extremely low in the grove, so everyone gathered together, checking the surrounding situation while looking for Jiang Mi's trace.
However, Zhong Li and Jiang Mi in the apartment building were already drowsy.
Jiang Mi's condition was relatively good, and his life was not in danger. However, Zhong Li's condition was relatively complicated, and he was almost in a coma several times and was awakened by Jiang Mi.
Seeing that something was wrong, when Zhong Li was unconscious for the last time, Jiang Mi quickly rescued him and saved his life.
However, Zhong Li's injury was too severe and he needed medication to assist his treatment. These drugs could only be obtained at the base. Jiang Mi looked up and saw the mutants who were still banging on the door outside, feeling impatient.
At this critical moment, I suddenly heard my brother's voice coming from outside.
"Sister, where are you? Don't scare us, come out quickly."
It was this sound that collided with the mutants outside.
Perhaps knowing that Jiang Mi and the others were being rescued, these guys actually escaped one after another. In a short while, half of them were gone.
Jiang Mi looked at the scene in front of him in surprise, with a little more doubt in his heart.
Could it be that they have all become intelligent?
But if they were truly intelligent, they would not be able to directly follow and attack like ordinary mutants.
Or, is there something controlling them?
This strange scene cannot be explained.
Jiang Mi had no choice but to meet up with Jiang Xun and others first.
The noise outside seemed to have disturbed Zhong Li, who opened his eyes and looked around. Finding that he was still safe, he could not help but whisper.
"There seems to be some movement outside."
"It should be my brother and his friends who came to find us."
After Jiang Mi finished speaking, he suddenly raised his head and shouted loudly towards the window.
"We are here, come and help."
When Jiang Xun heard his sister's voice, he was so excited that he ran up in a hurry.
At this moment, the mutants outside have completely dispersed, and there is no trace of them.
"What are you doing here? Why don't you go back to base?"
Jiang Xun looked at his sister and Zhong Li lying on the ground, and was confused for a moment. But the next second he found that they were injured, so he rushed over, checked their injuries, and asked questions.
"We would like to leave, but we are surrounded by mutants outside, so we can't leave at all."
"But what's strange is that when these guys saw you coming, they actually evacuated. I now suspect that something is controlling them. This is no small matter."
Jiang Mi narrowed his eyes slightly, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he seemed a little panicked.
