Chapter 49 Azure Feather
Around 2 p.m., Han Shuo looked down from the window.
The entrances to the large shopping malls are arranged in an arc shape, one after another, stacked on top of each other...
The area was covered with countless zombie corpses, and murky yellow filth flowed continuously down the stone steps below the plaza.
This is zombie blood!
A foul odor wafted into Han Shuo's room from below.
Han Shuo frowned, but there was nothing he could do.
He shattered the windowpane with his gun, and there was nothing suitable to plug it up immediately, so he could only endure the smell.
"They're here!" Han Shuo muttered to himself.
He saw three middle-aged men walk out of the building entrance next to him.
He knew they had come to see him.
Han Shuo remained silent, watching quietly. His current location was already known to the middle-aged man, so finding him would be no problem at all.
After the middle-aged man easily dispatched several zombies blocking his path with a military shovel, he appeared directly below Han Shuo, where the corpse of the Linghui zombie was located.
As you can see, Han Shuo's strike was extremely beautiful, smoothly severing the head of the intelligent zombie. However, the rest of the body had already been trampled to pieces by the other zombies.
Han Shuo withdrew his gaze, no longer looking down, and turned to sit on the sofa. The middle-aged man and his companions had already gone upstairs.
Half a minute later.
"Knock knock knock!" A knocking sound rang out on the door.
Han Shuo walked over and opened the door. The middle-aged man who could clear up all of Han Shuo's doubts finally met Han Shuo!
"You're here," Han Shuo greeted with a smile.
"They're here!" The middle-aged man was surprisingly moved; he was a man who had seen a lot in the world.
He is the one who saves others on a daily basis; he has never needed anyone to save him.
The young man in front of them looked to be more than 10 years younger than them, but he was, after all, their savior.
This feeling is always a bit strange for middle-aged men.
"Come in first." Han Shuo led the three into the house and closed the door behind him.
As soon as Han Shuo turned around, he saw the three people in front of him. They stood up straight and raised their hands to salute Han Shuo!
The level of discipline in their military posture was impeccable.
"Thank you for saving us!" the middle-aged man said earnestly.
"Thank you for saving us!" Xiao Zhao and another soldier stood behind and repeated the words.
After the three finished speaking, they bowed deeply to Han Shuo.
"What are you doing? I was just helping out."
Han Shuo quickly stepped forward to help the middle-aged man up. He had seen the man's military rank on the shoulder of his uniform earlier.
The middle-aged man held a high military rank, and Han Shuo felt somewhat unworthy of such a person saluting him. Although he knew that he had saved the lives of these three people, he still felt a little awkward.
The middle-aged man straightened up again, laughed heartily, and said cheerfully.
"Haha, young man, don't be modest. You risked getting yourself killed with that casual gesture."
Han Shuo smiled awkwardly and led the three of them to the sofa.
"Please sit down, everyone. I just acted on impulse. As long as the result is good, that's all that matters."
The middle-aged man didn't stand on ceremony and sat down on the sofa with Han Shuo. However, Xiao Zhao and another soldier stood beside the middle-aged man and did not sit down.
Han Shuo saw all this but did not try to persuade him again.
Even though it's a special time now, soldiers still need to respect the rules they've developed over the years.
"May I ask your name, young man?" The middle-aged man had a smile on his face.
"Han Shuo, the Shuo from Shi Ye," Han Shuo replied.
"Han Shuo? Not bad, kid, you're pretty good! By the way, my name is Qing Yu."
It turns out the middle-aged man's real name is Qingyu. It's a nice name, but it doesn't really suit his physique and appearance.
"Qingyu? That's a very uncommon surname. Hello, Captain Qingyu."
Han Shuo nodded, smiled in response, and extended his right hand.
The two shook hands, exchanged names, and thus officially became acquainted.
"Captain, Captain, don't call me that, it feels awkward. I think you're still young, just call me Brother." Qingyu said. He was already used to his subordinates calling him Captain, but he was really not used to others calling him that.
"Okay, Brother Qingyu."
"By the way, let me introduce them to you. This is Zhao Yu, and this is Zheng Deliang."
Zhao Yu was naturally the same Xiao Zhao from earlier, while Zheng Deliang was another soldier.
Han Shuo greeted everyone as usual, and then the group chatted for a while.
Through the conversation, Han Shuo learned that the three of them were all special forces soldiers who had undergone special training, so their own strength was not weak.
Qingyu is 45 years old, Zheng Deliang is 34 years old, and Zhao Yu is actually two years younger than Han Shuo, just 28 years old.
Therefore, Han Shuo later also referred to Zhao Yu as Xiao Zhao.
After chatting, Qingyu clearly developed a strong interest in Han Shuo. He felt that Han Shuo was a very good person, so he extended an olive branch. This was the main reason why he came to see Han Shuo, in addition to expressing his gratitude.
"Brother Han Shuo, although you have a strong ability to survive, one person's strength is always limited. We have a meeting point in the city, would you like to go together?"
Han Shuo saved their lives, and after arriving at the gathering point, Qing Yu naturally wouldn't let him be restricted in his freedom like the other survivors. She said this because it was really dangerous outside, and she was a little worried about Han Shuo's safety.
"Here it comes!" Han Shuo thought to himself, overjoyed. He had been waiting for Qing Yu to say those words, and this was the plausible identity he needed!
Qingyu's invitation was very sincere, so Han Shuo decided to reveal some of the truth as well.
"Actually, I know about your gathering place."
"Hmm?" Qingyu was curious, but quickly realized what was going on.
They put up many signs on the city walls, which Han Shuo must have seen before.
“Right, I forgot, we have our markings in the city.”
"No, what I mean is that I observed you from the building next to your gathering point a couple of days ago. Actually, I followed you here today from behind."
Afterwards, Han Shuo recounted what he had been observing from the shadows for the past two days, including why he hadn't gone directly there that day, and frankly shared all his concerns.
These things weren't things he couldn't say; he believed that Qingyu wouldn't be wary of him because of his caution.
Sure enough, after listening to Han Shuo's explanation, Qing Yu burst into laughter.
"Young man Han Shuo, you've thought things through very well. Don't worry, I won't take it to heart, I understand!"
In the apocalypse, Qingyu knew that one should always be wary of others. Han Shuo's caution did not bother Qingyu; on the contrary, it made her see his extraordinary qualities even more.
After a couple of teasing remarks, Qingyu continued, "Now you can join with peace of mind, right?"
Han Shuo nodded, thinking to himself.
“Excellent, the integration issue has been perfectly resolved.”
Next, we come to the two questions that Han Shuo is most concerned about.
The path to becoming a superhuman! And what exactly is the purpose of the pure white, mercury-like liquid left behind by the aliens?
