Lu Sheng gently patted Bei Bei's head and casually tossed him a delicious little biscuit specially made for dogs.
Rocket and Zhuangzhuang next to them looked resentful. Their human had another dog outside, and this family was going to fall apart!
Beibei choked back a sob, turned around, and limped toward the door, dragging her battered body. Every few steps, she would turn back to see if Lu Sheng was following.
The group didn't dare to delay and quickly followed behind Beibei.
"Sister Lu, why do I feel like you're gentler with this dog than with people?"
Zhang Xiaojuan followed closely beside Lu Sheng, asking curiously in a low voice. As she spoke, she glanced at Xu Yi behind her, seemingly unintentionally.
He really wanted to say, "Sister Lu, you're gentler to the dog than to Teacher Xu," but he didn't dare to say it!
Lu Sheng loosely tied her hair into a bun and replied in a lazy voice, "Dogs are much more reliable than people in the apocalypse."
Even the closest people might turn on you for a bite to eat in the apocalypse, but a dog wouldn't.
Once a dog has chosen its owner, it will be loyal forever, and even in the toughest times, it will always be your last source of warmth.
She prefers dogs to people.
The group followed Beibei down the stairs back to the first floor, and as soon as they stepped onto the stairs, they smelled a pungent stench of blood.
Xu Yi strode to the front of the group, his sharp gaze sweeping over his surroundings.
Bloodstains spread from the elevator lobby all the way to the stairwell, and the grout between the gray floor tiles was soaked in blood, turning it blackish-red.
Beibei paced anxiously around Lu Sheng, repeatedly gesturing towards the elevator.
"What happened... why is there so much blood here?" Xin Qiao exclaimed in alarm.
Sure enough... something bad happened!
The strong smell of blood made Zhuangzhuang sneeze twice. "Lu Sheng, there are people nearby."
No sooner had Zhuangzhuang finished speaking than a tall figure appeared around the corner.
"He's still breathing, and the healing ability users here are helping to save him."
Chen Ziqiu strode out, winking at Lu Sheng with a smile, then immediately suppressed his laughter, "Vice Commander Li and the others were bitten by zombies. When we arrived, we could only save a few people; the rest died."
"To prevent them from turning into zombies, I took it upon myself to burn the bodies first."
Xin Qiao and the other female officers from K3 turned pale. "Where are the rest?"
Chen Ziqiu pointed to the small corridor at the corner, "Vice Commander Li and the young man who keeps the dog are still alive."
The group hurriedly followed Chen Ziqiu and quickly walked into the small corridor.
When they separated, there were a total of 9 people on Vice Commander Li's side, but now there are only 4 left. These 4 people have been bitten to pieces by the zombies, and there is not a single piece of good flesh on their bodies.
"You're being so kind?"
Having witnessed firsthand how the Xusheng team brazenly stole crystal cores, Zhang Xiaojuan and Xiao Yu instinctively distrusted Chen Ziqiu and his group.
Some even suspected that Vice Chief Li and the others were injured by Chen Ziqiu.
With a cigarette dangling from his lips, Chen Ziqiu's handsome eyebrows furrowed into a deep frown, and a nonchalant voice escaped his lips, "I'm not that shameless."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was met with angry glares from everyone in K3.
"He's not that stupid."
Lu Sheng looked down to examine Xiao Meng's wounds. The teeth marks were small and neat, clearly the teeth of a child.
“K3’s geographical location is special. He only wants to seize K3’s supplies, but he doesn’t want the K3 base to actually disappear. As long as K3 exists, the Xusheng base will have an extra layer of natural protection. If we take action against K3, he will have to spare manpower to build another line of defense, which is not worth it.”
Chen Ziqiu is a typical sophisticated egoist, and Lu Sheng guessed his thoughts at first glance.
"Where are those little zombies?" Lu Sheng asked Chen Ziqiu coldly as he finished checking on Xiao Meng.
Chen Ziqiu scrutinized Lu Sheng with great interest, making no attempt to hide the admiration in his eyes. "Zhuzhu's insects have been found; we'll have news soon."
Suddenly called by name, Zhuzhu glanced nervously at Lu Sheng and instinctively covered her neck.
Her neck is still burning. That woman is crazy!
Mushishi can control any insect and understand its language. Under the moonlight, no evil can escape the notice of these tiny creatures.
Soon, Zhuzhu's insects brought news.
"It's in the underground control room. We don't know what's inside. They can't get in." Zhuzhu shrank back in fright when she met Lu Sheng's gaze.
With a lead, Chen Ziqiu left half of his men to care for the wounded, while the rest rushed to the control room.
"Didn't you leave? Why are you back?"
On the way, Xiao Yu couldn't help but ask a question.
Chen Ziqiu laughed heartily, making no attempt to hide his purpose, "I originally wanted to stay and find out what your background was, but as soon as I entered, I saw Vice Commander Li lying on the ground."
