Chapter 111 Chapter 111 It's Me
The man stood there, dressed simply, holding a box in one hand and a white kitten in the other.
His facial features were deeply shadowed by the setting sun, and his pupils were a pale gold, like the dullness after passion faded.
He no longer had the high spirits he had when we first met, and he was as quiet as a statue.
Jiang Xi held her breath.
Lu Suye...is he still alive?
-
After the smoke from the violent explosion cleared, the only sound echoing in the silent hospital late at night was a man's low, choked sobs.
The person he had been holding had his eyes closed, his body gradually becoming cold and hard, and his life and soul had been pulled out of this body, and no one knew where they had gone.
There were lightning and thunder outside the window, and the mud wet by the rain splashed onto the pale and thin face lying in the cold mud, like black reptiles.
Lu Suye dug a hole under the ginkgo tree outside the hospital with his hands digging in the mud.
There are many such ginkgo trees in the Paradise Valley. When they first established the base here, the trees had not grown so big.
In winter, the leaves fell off and now only a bare trunk remains.
No, he has nothing.
I returned to the hospital in a daze, like a ghost just pulled out of the water.
There was a series of tapping footsteps in the distance, and in the dark corridor, a pair of fireflies flickered.
In less than two seconds, the sprinting firefly was in front of him.
Fortunately, he can't be said to have nothing.
He also has "Ginger Ginger".
Lu Suye held Jiang Jiang in his arms and went to the bathroom to take a shower and change clothes.
The responsibility and obligation to fragile little lives can give people who are at the bottom of despair renewed hope for survival.
I sat in a chair in the room in a daze. In the pocket of my change of clothes, there was a piece of paper with writing soaked in blood and rainwater.
My brother held it tightly in his hands before he died.
It took Lu Suye a lot of effort to recognize the numbers on it.
Like...the combination to a safe?
Lu Suye suddenly remembered that there was indeed a secret room in his brother's underground laboratory where his research results were stored.
When he reached the door of the room, he realized that he didn't have the key.
But it didn't matter. He used the mental power concentrated in his palm to twist it gently, and the metal door lock melted like molten iron, dripping onto the ground.
The door opened.
The safe was placed in the most conspicuous place in the entire room. It was a super large safe.
Lu Suye entered the numbers on the note one by one.
Verification passed.
He opened the door of the safe.
It was packed full.
From left to right, there are several thick notebooks filled with handwritten notes, in the middle is a hard drive dedicated to storing data, and on the right are a lot of light-proof medicine bottles. I don't know what is in them.
The safe contains medicines that can be stored at room temperature, and some are kept in a low-temperature cold storage. The key to the cold storage is also in the safe.
The reason why Lu Suye knew the use of these keys was because he saw another note with his brother's handwriting in the safe.
The storage conditions and temperature are specifically marked on it, as if to prevent someone from cleaning it rashly and causing the liquid to become inactivated.
From the first note to the subsequent note...
Lu Suxing guided him step by step to this place.
There is no doubt that these things were prepared by him in advance.
When did he prepare these things and why did he prepare them?
Lu Suye looked through his brother's notes. Even though he couldn't fully understand the contents of the notes, he still recognized the name Jiang Ying.
There were two notebooks about Jiang Xi, one on top, and underneath were the secrets of Lu Suxing's other research results over the years, including the formula for the blue pill that could prevent the latent zombie virus.
He put all his hard work over the years into this small safe, which contains hard drive data, medicines, samples... everything.
It was as if he had already sorted out his belongings so that one day, someone who knew nothing about these things could take them away intact.
Lu Suye sat on the cold floor of the secret room, looking at the guidance notes left by his brother and laughing to himself.
Unfortunately, he did not find the suicide note here.
Even on his deathbed, the impression his brother wanted to leave on him was that he hated him.
But if the truth was really as hateful as he said, he wouldn't have prepared all these things in advance...
"Call me a liar,"
Lu Suye's eyes were sore. He covered his eyes with his hands, his shoulders trembling slightly, "You are the liar!"
Lu Suxing, you big liar!!
-
Lu Suxing studied Jiang Xi for a long time, and also studied him for a long time.
From the few words he could read in the notes, Lu Suye discovered that his devilish brother was not only conducting research on the branch line of superpower inhibitors, but he was also trying to use Jiang Xi's blood to study the zombie virus.
A "conclusion" that was unimaginable to him was recorded by Lu Suxing in his notes.
The zombie virus is also a kind of superpower of human beings.
However, the notes stopped abruptly here, as if they had come to a pause.
The second part of Jiang Ting's research notebook has not been completed yet, and the back is full of blank pages.
There is no time left. Since returning from the Polar Circle, changes have happened too quickly, beyond everyone's imagination.
His brother was shot, the Paradise Guild collapsed, and Jiang Qian disappeared.
Lu Suxing knew that the current situation was closely related to his meaningless "pranks".
He is sensitive and suspicious by nature, and appears to be cold-blooded, selfish and perverted. However, even he himself finds it difficult to admit that he has never felt a trace of guilt from beginning to end.
Jiang Xi hated him, but he accepted it because it was his own fault and he couldn't blame anyone else.
But his brother has always cared about him and loved him so much, but he still keeps hurting him out of uncontrollable jealousy and intense curiosity.
Lu Suxing hated himself for using his own brother as an experiment, but at the same time he could not control his madness to explore the unknown, and he struggled in this purgatory-like torment all day long.
He knew that once the truth was revealed, he and his brother would never be able to go back to the way they were before.
In other words, his world collapsed after he found out that his brother was pretending to be lame just to have a legitimate excuse to stay in the hospital and take care of him.
From that day on, he could no longer concentrate on doing anything.
He was so self-deprecating, yet so proud, that he could not tolerate himself, a complete waste, to continue to exist in this world.
So, he took advantage of Lu Suye's sleep and buried explosives in his wheelchair.
He has been studying explosives since he was a child. However, he was too young at the time and had no control, so he accidentally blew up his leg. Since then, his parents strictly forbade him to touch those dangerous things. As for the magic weapon he tried his best to use to help his brother win the fight with the young thugs in the neighborhood, he was unable to use it. However, he did not give up and secretly turned to studying it without being known by others.
Today, the technology is quite mature.
He kept waiting, waiting for his brother to discover the explosives and then kill him in a rage. Unfortunately, Lu Suye didn't do anything, and he was getting a little impatient waiting.
Until one day, he saw the explosive again in his wheelchair.
A brilliant suicide plan came to mind.
He forged most of the diary, making it look old, which took him quite a while. With his photographic memory, he could make it look real, even down to the weather for each day. It could be said that apart from the genuine content scolding Jingcheng, there was basically nothing else in the diary that was sincere.
What he did to Jingcheng was one of the few things he did not regret, and he even boasted about it with pride.
He was the one who truly hated him.
Because he should have been the one standing beside his brother, fighting alongside him! It was this guy who took away the brotherhood between him and his brother.
Now that Jingcheng is dead, he has no regrets.
Death is his punishment, but also his relief.
Lu Suxing kept what he wanted to say in his heart. He didn't want his brother to spend the rest of his life in pain. After all, he deserved it all.
And the last words hidden under the words "I hate you" also became his wish.
Brother, go find her.
Hopefully, she's still alive.
Lu Suye knew that he didn't have the face to bother Jiang Qian again, but his brother's belongings gave him a sufficient excuse to approach her again.
But he didn't know where she was and had no idea where to look for her.
However, one thing was very clear: these things in the safe would not play their due role if they stayed with him, and he did not want to see his brother's hard work go to waste.
After settling everything, Lu Suye crossed the north-south dividing line of the American continent and set foot on the land of the northern district again after many years. His serious "rumors" at that time were still ringing in his ears...
[“If your boyfriend were still alive… he probably wouldn’t want you to go to a place like that in the North Side.”]
At that time, he tried his best to discredit the image of the North District and let Jiang Xi give up the idea of going there, but Lu Suye never dreamed that one day in the future he would hand over the largest fortune of the Paradise Guild to his opponent without taking a cent.
He couldn't have imagined that the North District Master, who had long been at loggerheads with him, would actually fight a zombie hunter for him?!
They are all old acquaintances.
What? Xiao Liang?
as well as……
Now, whether they are boyfriend or fiancé, they are all in "something like the North District."
The woman whom he once advised not to seek refuge in the North District, and whom he had dreamed about countless times at midnight, was also here.
The unexpected reunion made Lu Suye more flustered than shocked, and he didn't dare to look into Jiang Xi's eyes.
He could only use that powerful reason for the visit to barely support his dwindling self-esteem.
He is just delivering express.
-
Lu Suye was not dead, but his current condition was no different from being dead, before he met Jiang Qian.
As soon as he entered the door, Gu Yan, who had heard the news, was already waiting here.
The destruction of the Paradise Guild was not a trivial matter. It soon spread throughout the entire continent.
The guilds that had previously had grudges against the Paradise Guild were celebrating. As the largest guild in the northern part of the continent, the North District was undoubtedly happy, although not as straightforward as the other guilds.
Is there anything more interesting in this world than watching him build a tall building, watching him entertain guests, and finally watching his building collapse?
The most important thing is that his building collapsed, but his own building remained standing and became more and more stable!
It can also be regarded as a way to wash away the humiliation I suffered from Lu Suye in the past.
However, before Gu Yan could say a few words to his former enemy, Xiao Liang suddenly came and kicked him sideways.
The two men looked like they had a grudge against each other, and it seemed like he was about to attack Lu Suye.
This time, I can’t deal with Gu Yan directly.
What? !
Lu Suye is Xiao Liang's enemy? Is that why Xiao Liang wants to kill him?
Not to mention, this is his territory. Xiao Liang completely ignored him and didn't take him, the boss of the North District, seriously at all. After spending some time together, in Gu Yan's mind, it was obvious that his hostility towards Xiao Liang was much stronger than towards the former boss of the South District whom he hadn't seen for so long.
As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
How could you bully his friends in front of him?!
In this way, in order to stop Xiao Liang from attacking Lu Suye, Gu Yan fought with him again.
Xiao Liang: “…” This little brat is difficult to deal with.
When she hurt Gu Yan before, Jiang Qian was so distressed, hugging and kissing him. He was scared! !
Moreover, according to his understanding, this man is really good at pretending to be miserable to gain sympathy. After suffering a loss, Xiao Liang has learned his lesson and is indeed afraid of Gu Yan. He is afraid that if he hurts him, he will have the opportunity to take advantage of the situation again.
Therefore, Xiao Liang did not dare to confront him seriously, but just asked him to get out of the way quickly and not get in the way.
His target is Lu Suye!
From the day Jiang Qian was thrown into the corpse cave by the people from the Paradise Guild, he secretly vowed to avenge her and help her kill Lu Suye who hurt her.
So, the moment he saw Lu Suye, he had almost no hesitation.
Of course, he did not receive any reward for success, because Gu Yan was also present.
Just like that, an extremely weird, absurd and funny scene took place at the gate of Jiahe Hospital!
Fortunately, Chairman Jiang arrived in time and prevented the farce.
It’s such a long distance from the main gate to the hospital’s conference room, and there are countless opportunities for dialogue and to resolve grievances.
The visitor remained silent.
Lu Suye only said one sentence from beginning to end: he was here to deliver something.
Jiang Xi had many questions, but she had no idea where to start.
Besides, with Xiao Liang and Gu Yan around, it was not very convenient.
Sitting in the main seat in the conference room, she is now the absolute core of this room. Xiao Liang and Gu Yan sit on her left and right respectively, like two loyal bodyguards.
Lu Suye, on the other hand, sat directly opposite the long table.
This is the guest's position, but it also represents the distance between them, which is so unfamiliar that it is unfamiliar.
They are not the same kind of people.
Jiang Xi crossed her fingers and looked at Lu Suye opposite her.
"What are you going to give me?"
Hearing this, Lu Suye put the box on the table and opened it.
Then, Jiang Xi saw scattered objects that filled half of the table.
Notebooks, storage disks, vials of medicine...freezer.
There is actually——
Her pupils shrank. A dozen hollow ballpoint pens?
If she was not mistaken, wasn't this the gift she gave to Lu Suxing, the director of Kule Hospital, when they first met...
Now everything is in Lu Suye's hands, and he will hand it over to the person in charge of Jiahe Hospital.
That is, myself.
When Jiang Ting first saw the notebook and storage disk, she might not have had that strange feeling, but the things she had given to Lu Suxing before appeared here, and combined with Lu Suxing's silent state, Jiang Ting also had a guess.
Something must have happened to that guy.
However, she didn't care enough about the person she hated to ask about his recent situation.
There was a pile of things placed on the conference table. Jiang Jiangdong, the white kitten brought by Lu Suye, sniffed around and poked them with his claws from time to time. A thumb-sized medicine bottle rolled on the table, which made Jiang Ting terrified.
So she called Meng Daogan over.
It would be most appropriate to give Lu Suxing's things to him.
Meng Daogan had never met Lu Suye, but he had heard of the names of the brothers from the south. The elder brother had supernatural powers that were against the will of heaven, and the younger brother was an unparalleled genius in the world. He had actually wanted to visit Kule Hospital for a long time, but due to the confrontation between the North and the South, with his status, if he really went there and was found out by the people in his own hospital, he probably wouldn't have to come back.
The idea of visiting has been put on hold.
As a result, today, the other party actually came to the door in person.
Meng Daogan recognized the medicine bottles at a glance and knew what they were used for.
He flipped through a few pages of thick research notes filled with words, and his eyes almost fell out.
The guest looked at the chairman in surprise. Before he could ask the question in his mind,
The other party introduced himself.
"These are my brother's belongings."
In this way, Jiang Xi doesn't have to ask anymore.
Relics...
Lu Suxing is dead?
Lu Suye was not in the mood to talk about other high-sounding principles. People who knew the business would naturally know what to do after reading Lu Suxing's notes.
- Continue this genius' unfinished research until the day it can benefit all mankind.
Perhaps, this would be a way of living up to his brother's trust in entrusting these things to him.
"Oh my god, it's so strong!"
"Is that really the case?!"
“…I finally understand!”
The whole place was silent, with only Meng Daogan exclaiming frequently.
He only read a few pages of Lu Suxing's notes and suddenly felt as if he had been enlightened.
In the past, he had always relied on his own perception to explore and innovate in the fog, but now it seemed as if he had finally obtained the secret method of practicing martial arts. Many of his past confusions were solved. How could he not be excited!
Meng Daogan was so absorbed in the performance, it was so vivid.
Jiang Xi couldn't stand it anymore and asked Xiao Liang to pull him out of his trance.
Meng Daogan woke up as if from a dream.
Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
"Dean," Jiang Qian winked, "Take it back and take a look at it slowly."
"Oh oh oh!" Meng Daogan then realized his loss of composure, like a dramatic actor.
He quickly took the things Lu Suye took out of the box and put them back into the box. "Can I take this?"
He wanted to take the box with him.
What a big face.
But... Lu Suye still agreed.
So, Meng Daogen took the initiative and did not consider himself an outsider at all. He directly took out the half-opened bag of cat food from the box.
He didn't use enough strength to deal with the cat, and some cat food spilled on the table. It was Jiang Jiang's happy time!
It ate the buffet at the long table in the conference room as if no one was around.
"Thank you! Thank you so much."
Meng Daogan thanked Lu Suye repeatedly.
"Your brother is truly a great man. History will always remember this day!"
As he spoke, he pushed the glasses on his nose, and before leaving, he did not forget to bow to Lu Suye. Then, he happily walked away carrying the box that Lu Suye brought.
Meng Daogan helped them close the door of the conference room and ran straight towards the laboratory.
Brothers and sisters, the dawn has come!
Everyone is about to get through it!!
His cheerful jumping echoed throughout the corridor and could be heard clearly in the conference room.
After he walked away, Jiang Qian still didn't know how to start.
To be honest, her feelings towards this man are quite complicated now.
I can’t say whether I hate it or not.
It seemed as if all her memories of him were blown away by the cold wind that afternoon, along with the "fact" of his death that she had already accepted.
Before she shot him in the villa, Jiang Ying undoubtedly hated him.
But he didn't dodge or evade, and just let her use the gun he gave her to shoot the bullet through his chest. If she was the one who killed him, then he could accept it.
However, Jiang Qian could not accept the fact that she had actually killed him.
Seeing Lu Suye lying in a pool of blood, she couldn't bear it.
But every time she wanted to soften her heart and unconsciously sympathize with this man, the blood-red lake on the polar snowfield would sting her eyes, reminding her not to have mercy on a cruel and inhumane thug, and that she was not qualified to forgive the deceased.
The complex emotions of contradiction, entanglement and pain, along with the appearance of Lu Suye, rekindled in Jiang Ting's heart.
At the same time, it also brought up a question that she would never be able to figure out based on her own imagination...
Lu Suye, who was seriously injured, survived, but his younger brother, who lived in seclusion, died.
Why is this?
It's not possible that his younger brother has some secret weapon that can perform an evil magic of exchanging life for life, using his own life in exchange for his brother's chance to continue living?
The imagined painting style became more and more fantastic. In the picture imagined by Jiang Xi, the King of Hell would come out in a while.
An old acquaintance was the first to break the awkward silence.
"President Lu, what are your plans for the future?"
Gu Yan acted very seriously, becoming the only one among the other three people present who expressed concern for Lu Suye's future...
But if he really had such good intentions, he wouldn't be Gu Yan.
Sure enough, before he finished speaking, he smiled awkwardly.
"Sorry, I forgot," Gu Yan grinned, "You are no longer the president."
"and--"
Speaking of this, Gu Yan wanted to laugh even more.
"You don't have any special powers anymore."
This is great news that will allow all guild leaders who are hostile to Ji Le to rest easy from now on.
Gu Yan is no exception.
This shows how severely they were suppressed before. No matter whether Lu Suye had just given them a big gift, one thing is one thing, and the anger that should be taken back must be taken back.
Besides, he was just talking, so it can’t be considered excessive, right?
Back then, Lu Suye was a man who would set fires whenever he was unhappy, and the fire couldn't be put out with water, so they had no choice but to ask him to spare them and put out the fire. His special ability made everyone afraid to get angry, but they also dared not speak out.
Things have changed. Today is no longer the same as before.
Gu Yan's sarcasm and teasing were tantamount to bullying. Even Xiao Liang couldn't help but glance at the North District boss who was openly taking advantage of someone's misfortune. Didn't he just protect Lu Suye and prevent him from killing him?
Now they are verbally bullying us again.
Moreover, Gu Yan simply exposed Lu Suye's past as well.
So, Xiao Liang only then realized that Lu Suye's ability had disappeared...
No wonder he didn't sense any mental fluctuations from Lu Suye. He thought he was deliberately hiding it, but facing the strong murderous aura, Lu Suye had no intention of fighting back.
So there's no way to fight back?
As for the reason why Lu Suye's supernatural powers disappeared, Xiao Liang didn't even need to guess, as they both knew it well.
As expected, he is the only special one in this world.
But the problem is, if Lu Suye becomes an ordinary person, can he still help Jiang Xi get revenge?
Could he do it, attack an ordinary person who had no ability to fight back?
Like Jiang Qian, Xiao Liang was also feeling complicated at this moment.
Perhaps, Gu Yan was the only one who felt relaxed and happy.
He was waiting for Lu Suye's answer, looking down at him with the attitude of a winner.
He has a base, superpowers, and a beautiful fiancée! He's a true winner in life!
But Lu Suye has nothing.
It feels so good.
"I have delivered the items, and I have no other comments."
As he spoke, Lu Suye hugged Jiang Jiang on the table in his arms, then picked up the bag of cat food and walked towards the door of the meeting room.
He didn't want to get entangled too much, and he didn't want to be humiliated by Gu Yan in front of Jiang Qian.
Just leave like that?
It seems like he really just came to deliver something.
Gu Yan crossed his arms and rolled his eyes at him.
You've fallen into such a state, why are you still pretending to be noble?
Xiao Liang was surprised. How could Lu Suye ignore Jiang Xi and leave on his own?
Is this person really him?
The door handle of the conference room was pressed.
Just then—
"Wait a moment!"
Suddenly, a hurried female voice sounded, stopping his actions.
Lu Suye's body stiffened.
Jiang Xi had already stood up from her luxurious chairman's chair and was facing him.
"What else?"
Lu Suye had to admit that when he asked this question, there was a hint of luck and hope in his heart.
He hoped to hear Jiang Ying's words of concern for him, or even her attempt to keep him.
After all, the scene of their separation was so tragic...
Didn't she want to know how he survived?
Jiang Qian was indeed curious, but she also had her own inner demons and principles that shackled her.
Her gaze stayed on Lu Suye's face for a few seconds, and then she turned her gaze to the little white cat in his arms, which was looking around with its eyes wide open.
Then, he said something that Lu Suye would never forget in his life.
——"Leave the cat behind."
In an instant, the conference room was silent.
Even quieter than before.
It's like a vacuum has been sucked out, so oppressive that it's hard to breathe.
As soon as these words came out.
Xiao Liang: "..."
Gu Yan: “…”
Lu Suye: "..."
Everyone was confused.
The only person who felt justified was Jiang Qian, and her eyes never left the white kitten.
After a long time, Lu Suye recovered from his shock and looked down at Jiang Jiang in his arms. He gently touched its little head, as if saying goodbye.
He unexpectedly met Jiang Xi today, and he no longer had to worry about her because she was living a good life now. She had money, power, and someone to protect her, so he didn't have to worry about her.
Her current situation is completely different from his.
She asked for the cat. Lu Suye considered it from Jiang Jiang's perspective and decided that instead of bringing the cat with him and letting it suffer, it would be better to leave it with Jiang Jiang.
He believed that she would take good care of it.
Besides, he had bought this cat specifically for her.
Lu Suye walked to the table, put Jiang Jiang back in his arms, and put the cat food on the conference table.
Now that the cat is gone, there is no point in keeping the cat food.
Jiang Xi teased the little white cat on the table with her hands. This was the first time she took the initiative to touch the little white cat.
Jiang Jiang couldn't resist the temptation and walked towards her.
It still remembers her smell.
Gu Yan was stunned watching from the side, he had no idea what was going on.
“…”
But he understood what people said, and his wife asked someone to keep the cat.
Not only did they give me a gift package of medical secrets, but they also gave me a cat?
Isn't this typical bandit behavior?
However, considering that the person who did this was Jiang Xi, he naturally praised her highly.
As expected of the woman he likes, she is so domineering!
"Is there a place on base that sells cat food?"
Holding Jiang Jiang in her arms, Jiang Qian turned around and asked Gu Yan.
There wasn't much left of the half bag of cat food Lu Suye left.
How is that possible!
"It will be ready soon," Gu Yan said with a servile look. "I'll find someone to open a new production line right now! Just to serve Xiao Baibai."
The past reappears.
The door of the conference room was not closed, and Lu Suye's back disappeared from sight.
Come in with full hands and leave with empty hands.
Kicked out of the house!
Three figures stood in the conference room.
Sudden--
"What's going on? My little ginger baby!!"
Gu Yan was shocked and anxious, shouting, "Why are you crying?"
As he spoke, he hurriedly wiped her tears with his sleeves.
The tears could not be stopped, and a warm rain fell on the soft white snow.
This is the smallest artificial saltwater lake in the world.
Jiang Xi couldn't stop crying. She cried intermittently, trying to hide the reason why she couldn't stop crying.
"Finally I have a cat again."
-
Many days later, whenever Jiang Xi recalled that moment, she felt uncomfortable.
She didn't know whether her decision to let Lu Suye keep the cat was right or wrong.
Although he was the one who gave her the cat, she had already escaped when the cat returned to the Paradise Guild.
She had never spent a single day with it, but Lu Suye raised it with his own hands.
He should have a deeper relationship with it.
Even when he was near death and his consciousness was blurred, he still held it and called its name.
It is very important to him, at least it is a spiritual sustenance.
Jiang Qian felt that it was impossible for Lu Suye to just let go of his concerns and leave. He might come back to see it.
But he never came, not even once.
Maybe, it doesn't matter.
He could even let go of her, let alone a kitten with a similar name to hers.
He doesn't like cats at all!
Jiang Qian grabbed Jiang Jiang's two front paws and told it seriously, "I am your master."
Jiang Jiang was fine at first and behaved obediently, but later he started to struggle hard.
It meowed loudly, as if in protest.
However, resisting a powerful force that one cannot escape is like an ant trying to shake a tree or a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
As soon as Jiang Xi let it go, it ran to the door and scratched it with its hands, trying to get out.
It not only wanted to get out of Jiang Ying's room, but also wanted to get out of the hospital.
It longs to be free and return to its true master...
"sorry……"
Jiang Qian covered her mouth and kept mumbling an apology, "I'm sorry, Jiang Jiang."
She shouldn't have forced it to stay by her side for her own selfish interests. What's the difference between it and herself who was once powerless?
Fortunately, Jiang Jiang didn’t like her that much, but he couldn’t escape the curse of like attracting like.
When she sees Jiang Yongzhuang, Jiang Jiang will climb up his legs like climbing a tree, then climb to his shoulders and put her face close to his.
"I have a younger brother, meow!"
The picture of the orc and the kitten getting along together is harmonious and warm.
With Jiang Yongzhuang's mediation, Jiang Jiang's anxiety about separation from his owner was greatly alleviated and the occurrence of stress was reduced.
Jiang Yongzhuang also took on the task of taking care of Jiang Jiang, allowing it to gradually adapt to this place.
What would happen if Yongzhuang was gone from this family?
Lu Suye's appearance and departure caused ripples in Jiang Xi's heart.
The warm rain made Xiao Liang realize that it was meaningless to seek revenge on Lu Suye again.
She still has feelings for him.
However, Gu Yan, who knew nothing about Jiang Xi's past, was not as clear-headed as Xiao Liang.
Maybe he was just making small talk. That day, the little white cat happened to be playing with a ball of wool on the carpet, and Gu Yan started talking about everything.
"Little Jiang Bao, my dear wife, you don't have to worry about the future! I'm absolutely reliable."
Jiang Xi raised her head, her eyes confused.
Gu Yan, on the other hand, had a proud look on his face. He guessed that Jiang Qian must have heard some recent rumors, which was why she was frowning all day long.
As her future husband and her protector, Gu Yan felt it necessary to reassure her.
The North District has recently accepted many new refugees, all of whom are human survivors who have been displaced due to the disbanding of the base on this continent.
The reason for this situation is that, on the one hand, it is winter now and many bases have insufficient winter reserves. Once the internal circulation of the base collapses and no external aid can be found, it will lead to famine-like riots in the short term and cause chaos. If the chaos cannot be quelled, the base will be doomed to collapse.
This has been a common occurrence in previous years, with signs usually appearing in late autumn and erupting on a large scale in winter, which is not surprising.
However, this situation generally only occurs in small and medium-sized bases. It is absolutely impossible for a super-large base like the North District, which has more than a dozen internal circulation systems and countless supplies.
On the other hand, there is the speculation of "poison cloud upgrading" which has been spread so widely that it has almost caused panic among the people.
These new survivors who joined the North District Base brought with them the reasons for the collapse of their original base, and also turned the terrible memories before the base collapsed into a collective memory.
The terrifying thing about these memories is not that they will never happen in the North District, but that the thick fog that hangs over the base cannot be dispelled and may fall at any time.
Grayish yellow is the most common color, and the fog has a pungent and strong stench of decay that makes it difficult to breathe.
Those who ran fast survived, while those who ran slowly contracted lung disease. The virus spread rapidly among the crowd, and within a few days, it could kill everyone in a city.
At almost the same time, such thick fog appeared in the sky above various areas of Meilika and would not dissipate on its own.
The experience we can draw from now is that the darker the fog, the lower the air visibility and the greater the harm to people, even those with special abilities are not immune.
If black clouds drift over a base, it is like being targeted by the god of death, announcing its destruction in advance. The shadow of death is looming and no one can escape.
Like the sword of Damocles hanging over our heads, this is a murder against all humanity.
Because zombies are not affected.
More than one person saw with their own eyes that countless zombies fell from the clouds and attacked the survivors' base while humans were fleeing everywhere.
Because it has many similarities with a phenomenon that the zombie studies community has previously known, even if one is reluctant to believe it, the ironclad facts are right in front of them. It is very likely that the "White Mist Poison Cloud" has evolved again, from a hurricane-like sweep to a "descent", and the clouds covering the human base are also vividly called "disaster clouds".
It wants to assimilate all living things on this planet, and then rebuild the world order. Human beings are the first obstacle that needs to be cleared.
As the president of a large base, Gu Yan has his own sources of intelligence. He knows more details and is more accurate than those horror story spreaders in the market.
Of course, even if the disaster cloud really came, he had a way to resist it. As long as everyone stayed in the base, nothing would happen, he assured Jiang Xi.
Unfortunately, things did not go as planned.
It would have been better if he hadn't said it. Jiang Ting was originally just feeling sad about her confusing emotions, but when he said that, Jiang Ting was completely frightened.
As a victim of Bai Lan's poisonous cloud and having entered and exited the corpse cave twice, she has a considerable psychological trauma from the supernatural and strange phenomena among zombies.
Although Meng Daogan had told her before that her physique should be immune to the zombie virus.
But that doesn't mean she doesn't feel disgusted and scared when she sees these things.
When she heard that the world was getting worse and the living environment of mankind was further deteriorating, she thought of the human survivors in the Paradise Guild's Comfort Zone who had lost their protection because of her. She felt like a huge stone was pressing on her heart, making it hard to breathe.
“How terrifying.”
Jiang Xi was nervous and her hands and feet were cold.
"It's okay, I'm here!"
Gu Yan grabbed the little hand again. He knew that now was the time for him to show his leadership charm as the master of the North District!
He did not explain in detail to Jiang Ting how he would respond if disaster struck. He just hoped that Jiang Ting would believe him and that the North District Human Survivor Base would never collapse!
"Why?" He was so sure and emphasized it again and again. Jiang Qian couldn't understand why he was so confident.
She was afraid that he was setting some kind of flag... He absolutely shouldn't do that.
Of course it’s not a flag, it has scientific basis.
"Because the only person I care about is right next to me," Gu Yan said with a smile on his face, "I don't have any worries."
His heart is stable, and the base is stable too.
Apart from the strong base strength in the North District and the powerful alliance of superpower groups that Gu Yan had already told her about, the most fundamental factor in whether a base will collapse is actually the president of the base guild!
It can be said that the president’s own qualities and decision-making ability basically determine the future of the base.
Jiang Xi seemed to be lost in thought.
Gu Yan pursued the victory.
At this moment, it is urgent to give an example to make the expression more vivid and easy to understand.
Gu Yan: "Do you know why the Bliss Guild disbanded?" (Excitedly chatting about gossip.)
"It used to be the most powerful guild in the Southern District!"
Jiang Xi: “…” Should she pretend to be stupid?
Hesitating——
"Oh, I forgot to tell you, the president of the Paradise Guild is the man whose cat you stole that day!"
Gu Yan was very considerate and added, "Do you still remember?"
Jiang Xi: “…” They couldn’t be more familiar.
But being familiar with Lu Suye is not a good thing at all.
then--
(Pretends to be surprised) (Nods)
"This guy used to be such a jerk, always pretending to be cool..."
Gu Yan's words were filled with indignation, as if evoking some humiliating memories.
But soon, indignation turned into contempt and disdain, "Now he is as miserable as a stray dog!"
Just as they saw him that day, silent and with his head down.
A clear sign of inferiority complex.
When Jiang Xi asked for his cat, he didn't even dare to let go. He decisively kept the cat and left in shame.
There is no masculine charm anymore.
"He dragged the entire guild down to find a woman. It's such a big guild, but he did nothing but look for that woman every day. He's basically dragging the guild down!"
Gu Yan scolded.
Jiang Xi: “…” (Calm, expression unchanged)
In the end, he had to eat the melon himself.
"My superpowers are gone too, tsk!"
As he spoke and sighed, Gu Yan tried hard to draw a clear line between himself and this unclear-minded man.
"Sex is a sword hanging over your head... You have no self-control at all, you deserve it!!"
Still cursing.
Jiang Xi: "..." (Silence is the golden harvest tonight)
Forget it, let him scold Lu Suye if he wants to. She will just pretend that she doesn’t know him.
Who made Lu Suye do those things that were all tainted in the first place?
But the next second, Jiang Ying regretted it.
She shouldn't pretend, because Gu Yan's next words would break her defense.
"That woman is not a good person either!"
After scolding the man, he scolded the woman.
Gu Yan was clearly in his own shoes, speaking without restraint, "What are you running around for all day? You're such a worry!"
He thought of the scene when Jiang Qian was about to leave with Xiao Liang, and was so angry that his stomach hurt instantly. Of course, he also understood Lu Suye's mood to a certain extent.
Seeing Jiang Xi staring at him without blinking, Gu Yan immediately reacted.
"I was only targeting that woman's irresponsible behavior, not women as a group!"
His desire to survive was overflowing, and he even thought Jiang Ying misunderstood him as sexist. He was not that kind of low-class male!
He scolded both men and women.
Although it’s not glorious, it’s not good enough to praise yourself and put others down.
But he didn't know that someone else was right in front of him! Look at her, she looks a bit like before.
"I think what you said is right."
Facing Gu Yan's strenuous defense, Jiang Qian smiled bitterly.
"I'm really not a good person."
Gu Yan: “…” His brain froze for three seconds.
"Who said you're not a good person? You are a good person!"
Gu Yan: “…” It doesn’t seem right.
"I didn't mean to say you were a thing!"
Ah, so it means it’s not a thing?
Gu Yan: “…” It’s still not right.
The more I describe it, the darker it gets. My left and right brains start fighting each other. Why are there so many little stars in front of my eyes?
Then the moon came out.
Looking at Gu Yan, Jiang Qian said calmly,
"I am the one that Lu Suye, the president of the Paradise Guild, has been looking for—"
She paused.
"That woman."
