Chapter 232 Cellar



Either way, it's enough to drive a research fanatic even crazier.

Qiao He felt that the so-called Dr. Lin was definitely not a good person!

It's highly likely they took Joss with them, but we don't know where they escaped to.

It's uncertain whether we'll find any clues.

Qiao He continued to ask the woman about Dr. Lin's situation, or about the other researchers.

Unfortunately, the story of women being abused has been told for so long that their memories are starting to become distorted.

She thought about it for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out.

Qiao He didn't press her further. This woman was already in a terrible state; she couldn't eat or drink anything. Even if Qiao He wanted to make her feel better before she died, she couldn't.

The only option was to send her on her way, so that her death wouldn't be too painful.

However, before Qiao He could make a move, when she took a closer look, the woman had already died.

Qiao He stood up. "It's too late. Walking is a burden. Let's look at other places."

Bo Shiwu nodded slightly. Actually, at first, he wanted to help Qiao He finish off this woman because he didn't want Qiao He to dirty his hands.

Bo Shiwu vaguely knew that his hands must be dirty; he must have killed someone before the natural disaster struck.

The only question is who they are and why they committed the murder.

Bo Shiwu is no longer so concerned about his memories and background, because he feels that even if he finds them, he will not easily leave Qiao He.

The world after the apocalypse is too dangerous. One second you're talking to each other, and the next you might be gone.

Bo Shiwu didn't want to never see Qiao He again, so she wouldn't leave.

Unless one day, Qiao He really gets tired of him and wants to kick him out.

The two of them searched around and around, looking at all the laboratories and even turning over the corpses.

Joss was still nowhere to be found.

If he were dead, surely his body wouldn't have disappeared completely?!

Bo Shiwu didn't know that Qiao Si was still alive, but Qiao He did.

She wanted to find clues, such as the origins of the people here, their backgrounds and connections, the identities of the lab technicians and senior researchers, and information about Dr. Lin.

If we find just one, we might be able to follow the clues and uncover the entire research institute organization!

Although the network is basically paralyzed now, the system can still help her search in the online world, so as long as she finds even the slightest clue, she will have a lead to find Jos!

She also asked Bo Shiwu to find clues, and the two of them started to act separately, which would be faster.

Grandma and the kittens are still outside, unaware of what's going on.

If those monsters turn around and attack them, it will be quite difficult to deal with them. If anything happens, Qiao He will regret it immensely.

And so, the two of them began rummaging through drawers and cabinets, hoping to find some useful information.

However, Qiao He quickly found some of the burned materials, most of which were paper documents, including a bunch of files and lab notebooks.

In short, they were all burned to ashes.

Qiao He asked the dormant system, "Can you restore these materials?"

The "Slacking Off" system was speechless: "What do you take me for, some kind of super glue? I can't fix it."

Qiao He: "...Okay."

The system is really useless.

The "Playing it Off" System: "I heard you."

Qiao He ignored him.

They continued searching for clues, even rummaging through the ashes to see if there were any unburnt pieces of paper.

However, it's a pity.

Everything inside was burned to the ground, completely destroyed...

Qiao He was at her wits' end. She felt that the chances of finding any clues were slim to none.

But Qiao He still didn't give up. What if, what if she found it?!

So Qiao He began to search even more diligently, but to no avail.

Bo Shiwu's situation was similar to hers.

The two then met.

Bo Shiwu said in a low voice, "No, there's nothing left. They took all the important data, and what they couldn't take was probably destroyed. The computers were all smashed."

Qiao He sighed, her face looking rather grim.

What else can they do?

Just then, Bo Shiwu suddenly noticed an unnatural spot on the ground. He frowned slightly, then squatted down to look at the dirty floor tile.

"It seems to be a mechanism." Bo Shiwu's expression turned serious.

Qiao He's eyes widened slightly: "Huh? Really...?"

Is this place an office or a laboratory, or even a cemetery?

However, calling it a grave is plausible, because all the animals and humans who remained here died; not a single one survived.

Just then, Bo Shiwu suddenly triggered some mechanism!

The next moment, the ground began to shake.

Bo Shiwu grabbed Qiao He's wrist and pulled her behind him.

The man's palms were large and very warm.

Qiao He couldn't help but feel at ease. So this is what it feels like to be protected. It feels so good to be cared for...

As the ground trembled slightly and the floor tiles were moved, they soon discovered an entrance leading down to the ground, along with an iron staircase. It seemed that there was a laboratory below.

I'm just not quite sure what's in there.

Qiao He and Bo Shiwu exchanged a glance, and Qiao He asked, "So, shall we go down?"

Bo Shiwu said calmly, "Of course, I'll go first, and you'll follow behind me."
