Chapter 402 Give Me Some Face
That evening, not long after everyone finished dinner, Qingyu took the initiative to come to their door.
After settling his men in, he could no longer suppress his doubts and immediately sought out Han Shuo for answers.
"Han Shuo, come out here for a moment, I need to talk to you about something."
"oh."
Han Shuo shook his head helplessly, greeted the fat man and the others, and followed Qing Yu out of the room.
He had already guessed what this guy wanted to do by coming to see him.
...
Half a minute later, the two arrived at the rooftop. Qingyu got straight to the point and launched into a barrage of insults.
"You brat! Tell me! Is there anything else I don't know?"
"Who is that...who is that man in white?"
Han Shuo gave an awkward laugh and offered a casual explanation.
"Uh... Bro, didn't I introduce him to you before? His name is Feng, a friend we met along the way."
After saying this, Qingyu was clearly furious.
He shook Han Shuo's shoulder aggressively and shouted loudly.
"You met them along the way? You better hurry up and make some more friends with these experts."
"Why didn't you tell me he was so strong sooner? By the way, when we rescued Dr. Lin last time, I saw that he was the only one with bloodstains on his clothes. Was he the one who did it? Did Dr. Lin's group know about it too?"
"I was the only one kept in the dark!?"
...
"Stop, stop, stop, bro, stop shaking me! I'm getting dizzy!"
Han Shuo hurriedly begged for mercy, and after Qing Yu released him, he muttered something under his breath.
"Honestly, it's my fault. Last time I introduced Feng, you didn't ask for details..."
Sure enough, when these words reached Qingyu's ears, Qingyu seemed to become even more agitated.
He glared angrily at Han Shuo, leaving his hands, which had been raised again, hanging in mid-air.
Okay, he remembered now, he didn't seem to have asked about the details back then...
...
The wind was strong tonight. Qingyu adjusted her mindset slightly and finally calmed down.
"well."
He sighed, gazed into the distance, and spoke calmly.
"Tell me about it..."
"Cough, cough."
Han Shuo cleared his throat with a light cough, stopped joking, and slowly began to tell him the story.
A few minutes later, after Qingyu heard the whole story, he shook his head with a wry smile.
"You've got some nerve, kid!"
The meaning behind his words was naturally due to Han Shuo's risky act of saving Feng that day.
Now that things were clear, Qingyu felt much more at ease.
At that moment, he suddenly remembered Feng's eyes and couldn't help but ask a question casually.
"Oh right, his eyes..."
Before he could finish speaking, Han Shuo interrupted him.
"The wind is human, not a zombie."
These eight words reassured Qingyu.
He nodded and said nothing more.
Then, silence fell on the rooftop. Neither of them spoke, and they gazed silently into the distance.
On the distant horizon, a red light appeared and disappeared.
They both knew that the grove of dead trees they had passed by earlier that day was still burning, and the fire had not yet been extinguished.
After an unknown amount of time, Han Shuo turned his head and said.
"Brother, Feng is planning to leave in a few days. Please don't disturb him during this time; he prefers peace and quiet."
As soon as the words were spoken, Qingyu paused for a moment.
"Huh? He's leaving already?"
He realized what was going on as soon as he finished speaking, because Han Shuo had just said that Feng was with them mainly to recuperate from his injuries.
This expert's next move is to continue hunting down the zombie king...
"Okay, I understand. I won't let anyone bother him."
Qingyu nodded to Han Shuo, indicating that he understood the request.
...
"Alright, brother, I've asked all the questions you wanted to ask. I'm going back now."
Han Shuo felt a little bored, patted Qing Yu on the shoulder, and turned to say goodbye.
At that moment, Qingyu called out from behind.
"Hey! You little rascal, if you have any secrets like this in the future, can you at least tell me beforehand?"
"Seriously, I'm a commander now, can't you give me some face?"
"Okay, okay..."
Han Shuo suppressed a laugh, waved to the back of his head without turning around, and then walked down the rooftop.
"well."
Qingyu sighed again, shook her head with a wry smile, and walked downstairs.
"I, the commander, have absolutely no face in front of this brat. He even dared to pat me on the shoulder. How disrespectful..."
...
That evening, Han Shuo chatted with Fatty, Cheng Shenghong and others for a while. Just as they were about to rest, Li Shurou walked into the room from outside.
After finishing her dinner, she went straight to Dr. Lin's place.
"Huh? Are you all taking a break? We've made some progress on the Human-Faced Corpse Spider research, want to hear about it?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
The fat guy was quite curious and was the first to come over.
Xiao Zhao followed closely behind, and everyone except Feng became interested.
Han Shuo, surprised, turned around and replied, "So fast?"
Li Shurou nodded.
"Well, it's not a complicated matter to begin with. We can just extract some genes and analyze them."
She then sat down on a chair and continued speaking.
"The formation of this creature is similar to what we previously guessed. It was caused by a different species accidentally eating a lot of spiders, resulting in gene fusion and mutation, which led to its appearance."
"However, the probability is extremely low. After all, the genes of two different species are different, and it is not an easy thing to merge and mutate."
After Li Shurou finished speaking, the fat man nodded in sudden understanding.
"Oh, so that's what happened..."
Han Shuo stood there in contemplation for a moment, and finally understood the question that had puzzled him for so long.
Indeed, as Li Shurou said, the probability is extremely low.
In the past, most of the alien species they encountered either ate people or ordinary zombies; they had never actually seen one actively hunt other creatures.
Then, without thinking too much about it, he asked a question.
"Besides this, did Dr. Lin gain anything else?"
Li Shurou nodded quickly.
"Yes! Of course there are. For example, the eight long legs of the human-faced corpse spider are both hard and sharp. With a little polishing, they can definitely be used as a decent weapon."
"How about it? Are you interested? I can go over and ask for a few."
After saying this, the fat man quickly waved his hand dismissively.
"No, no, it's not tough at all. It was still cut in half by the boss's short blade in one go."
"Besides, that thing, let alone using it, makes me feel disgusted just looking at it."
"Ha ha!"
Cheng Shenghong, who was standing nearby, burst into laughter after hearing this, and then made a joke.
"Fatty, you can't compare everything to the wind. Doing so will result in the loss of many treasures, you know?"
At this moment, Han Shuo noticed that Lao Wu seemed to be getting restless.
The fifth brother's eyes shone, and he kept nodding at him...
