Chapter 57 Chapter 57
The psychic who came in was just passing by and resting in this abandoned house.
Qiao Yanrou heard the psychic on the partition walk into the room, and guessed that two people walked in.
"...Have you heard about the recent large-scale zombie extermination?"
"I heard there are two very powerful psychics who gathered other psychics to destroy the zombies inch by inch."
“I want to participate, but I can’t find a place.”
"Who wouldn't want to? I was so terrified before that I couldn't even sleep too soundly. If the zombies could be completely wiped out, I'd be willing to sacrifice my life for it."
"No, no, no, don't say that."
"Honestly, I really want to go. If my sister were still alive, she would probably become an excellent psychic like me."
Another psychic sighed visibly and patted his shoulder: "Xiaoyan must still be alive."
In fact, they had no hope anymore. Bai Xiaoyan had been separated from her family more than ten years ago when she was only ten years old. The chances of her surviving were very small.
The comforted man fell silent. So many years had passed and Xiaoyan had not been found. His parents had passed away one after another, and the only relative he had left was his sister, whose whereabouts were unknown.
Qiao Yanrou heard their conversation and when she heard the word "Xiaoyan", she covered her mouth in surprise. Xiaoyan...is it her good friend Bai Xiaoyan?
"I hope so."
There were voices again from above the partition, and she listened with bated breath.
"Don't think too much, you should find a girlfriend." He is in his twenties and has never had a girlfriend.
"I haven't found her yet, so I don't have any thoughts."
"Hey... why bother? If you can't find one in your lifetime, will you never have a girlfriend?"
"I don't want to delay others." Bai Hanlin has no plans in this regard for the time being.
"Bai Hanlin, what do you mean?! You heard me coming and immediately stabbed me in the heart, right?"
A hot female psychic walked in, blocked the door, and questioned Bai Hanlin.
Bai Hanlin was obviously helpless with her, and he even avoided her on purpose.
"Anyway, I'm telling you, I like you, don't even think about getting rid of me."
Bai Hanlin moved his lips. He tried to persuade her countless times, but she just wouldn't listen.
Qiao Yanrou heard the conversation above. The girl called Bai Hanlin, and the surname matched. He was indeed Bai Xiaoyan's brother.
No wonder she had never heard Xiaoyan talk about her family situation. It turned out...
"Shijuan, don't force him. A forced melon is not sweet." The male psychic next to her spoke for Bai Hanlin.
"I'm going to get him." The female superpower has a very domineering personality and won't listen to other people's advice at all. It seems that she won't give up until she gets Bai Hanlin.
Qiao Yanrou under the partition began to get anxious. Is there any way to tell Bai Hanlin the news that Bai Xiaoyan was in Shen Luohan's base without exposing herself?
When Bai Hanlin left the room, a note fell at his feet.
He looked at the note beside his shoe in surprise, bent down and picked it up. The note was folded, and he opened it and took a look.
Bai Hanlin's expression became solemn. The note read: Bai Xiaoyan is at Shen Luohan's base.
He had heard of the Shen Luohan base, but because there were too many rules and regulations for taking in people with special abilities, he gave up the idea of entering the base.
Regardless of whether the note was true or false, he had to go into Shen Luohan's base to look for it.
"Let's go and head to Chen Luohan Base." Bai Hanlin couldn't wait any longer and immediately took his teammates into the car and left.
"Ah? Didn't you go to Shen Luohan Base before?"
"I didn't go in." He had already sat in the driver's seat and fastened his seat belt.
"But Shijuan has been in there. She looked for you, and no one there said they'd ever heard of Bai Xiaoyan."
Su Shijuan felt a little guilty. In fact, she didn't ask. After entering Shen Luohan's base, she was so busy looking at the two handsome guys that she forgot about this matter.
Bai Hanlin obviously didn't trust Su Shijuan very much. She always got dizzy and had all her attention drawn to handsome guys when she met them.
"Get in the car." He didn't say much and asked them all to get in the car.
When leaving, Bai Hanlin took a deep look at the abandoned house. If Xiaoyan was really in Shen Luohan's base, he would definitely come back to thank the mysterious person here.
Just now, Qiao Yanrou thought of a way to open the gap in the partition and use her supernatural power to float the note in front of Bai Hanlin so that he could see it.
When the note passed in front of Bai Hanlin, it was unknown what happened afterwards because it was out of her sight. However, he hurried away and must have seen the content of the note she reminded him of.
She came out of the basement about an hour after the group left, hoping that they could meet each other soon.
More than half a month passed, and Bai Hanlin and his teammates arrived at Shen Luohan Base, exhausted.
The other teammates did not go in and waited for him outside.
Bai Hanlin walked in alone. He did not ask the psychic guarding the door. Even if he asked, the other party would not tell him the truth.
Today happened to be the day when the base was taking in people. Bai Hanlin was a dual-system, high-level person, and was quickly accepted into the base.
Bai Hanlin entered Shen Luohan's base and looked around. He did not rush to find Bai Xiaoyan, but first established good relationships with the people in the base.
As he walked into the conference room, he saw a girl chatting and laughing with someone, and her appearance overlapped with his gradually blurred memory.
Bai Hanlin was so excited that his eyes turned red. That note...did not lie to him.
"Xiaoyan, do you know that person?" the female psychic next to her asked Bai Xiaoyan.
"Who is it?" Bai Xiaoyan turned her head and saw the person standing at the door. She stood up quickly.
She didn't believe what she saw.
"Brother!" Bai Xiaoyan rushed over and hugged him with tears in her eyes.
Bai Hanlin was also very excited. He... finally found her.
The people around were confused and didn't understand what was going on.
Bai Xiaoyan took Bai Hanlin to the balcony and they expressed their longing for each other. When she learned that her parents had passed away, Bai Xiaoyan burst into tears in Bai Hanlin's arms.
It's all her fault. It's her fault. If she were stronger and had reunited with them earlier, maybe her parents would still be alive now.
"Xiaoyan, this is not your fault." Bai Hanlin comforted her in a bitter voice.
After crying, Bai Xiaoyan knew that she could not change the facts, so she suppressed the sadness that kept welling up in her.
Seeing that her emotions had stabilized, Bai Hanlin talked to her about how he found her. He thought that the mysterious man in the abandoned house must have heard his conversation with Ji Di and happened to know Xiaoyan, so he wrote a note to tell him.
"Wrote a note?" Bai Xiaoyan asked him puzzledly.
Bai Hanlin didn't throw the note away, but took it out of his pocket.
Bai Xiaoyan took it and looked at it, she was horrified and quickly tore the note into pieces.
"Why... tear it up?" Bai Hanlin didn't even have time to stop it before the note turned into pieces.
Bai Xiaoyan made a "hush" gesture to stop his brother from continuing.
Still worried, she quietly reminded him, "Don't tell anyone about the note except me, especially the people in this base."
Although Bai Hanlin didn't understand why, seeing her unusually nervous expression, he agreed to keep the matter secret.
Bai Xiaoyan recognized Yan Rou's handwriting at first sight. She was very happy that she was still alive, but she didn't want to see her being imprisoned in the base by Chen Luohan and spending the rest of her life in depression.
In the abandoned house, Qiao Yanrou didn’t know whether Bai Xiaoyan had recognized her brother. If so, it would be considered as doing something for her.
When Shen Luohan was around, she was always the one helping him. But when she thought about it carefully, she had never helped Bai Xiaoyan.
The New Year passed in a flash. Qiao Yanrou waited for the snow to melt before loosening the soil, sowing the seeds and waiting for them to take root and sprout.
More than half a year passed in this pleasant time. Nothing happened during this period. For some reason, even the number of psychics staying in the abandoned houses decreased a lot, not to mention the zombies. Except for the high-level zombie that I encountered shortly after I arrived here, no zombies broke in here since then.
As autumn approached, the leaves outside the house gradually withered. After watering the vegetable garden, Qiao Yanrou looked up and saw the yellow leaves falling under the setting sun. The scene was so beautiful that it made people hold their breath.
Her soft and beautiful eyes seemed to contain mist, bright and charming.
It is a great blessing to be able to live like this in this life.
Before she knew it, Qiao Yanrou had spent three springs, summers, autumns and winters in this abandoned house. Just when she thought she would spend the rest of her life leisurely here.
The sound of a sports car was rarely heard from the abandoned house that had not seen any passers-by for a long time.
The sports car was parked outside the abandoned house. The sound of the car was very loud and close, and Qiao Yanrou could hear it clearly in the basement.
She put her ear to the partition and could vaguely hear the laughter of men and women coming from above.
“…come here to explore…”
"Why take the risk? The zombies are long gone."
Although Qiao Yanrou was surprised to hear this, it was also expected. There should have been no zombies two years ago.
"The good times of the past year have lasted so long that I almost completely forgot about the days before that."
These were the only useful information she could hear. The people who came into the abandoned house might have found it boring. After a while, they heard the sound of a sports car again.
Qiao Yanrou suddenly remembered the first time she celebrated the New Year here. The conversation between the man named Bai Hanlin and his teammates said that two extremely powerful men had summoned many people with special abilities to eliminate the zombies.
I guess their plan to wipe them out was successful.
