Chapter 76 Dreaming
The cold moonlight shone through the gaps between the leaves onto the ground. The mottled light and shadow made Lin Chuchu, whose face and front were splattered with blood, look even more sinister.
She silently closed the medicine box that was still steaming and put it into her backpack.
Ling Che's wounds had healed, and he leaned against the tree trunk with his head lowered. It was probably because the sedative hadn't worn off yet. But the mess on the ground...
She didn't know how to explain it.
The "buzzing" sound overhead was getting closer, and Lin Chuchu stared blankly at the two helicopters flying high.
It came pretty fast...
Ling Che raised his head suddenly as if awakened, his eyes first fixed on the bloody figure. Her murderous look kept lingering in his mind, so he... had never understood her?
Was the delicate little girl he thought was just someone he judged by her appearance?
The bare hand that had once driven him crazy was now covered in blood. Ling Che's gaze suddenly turned deep, his heart filled with emotions, and he wanted to...
Chen Jiawen led four teams and quickly jumped off the helicopter along the rope ladder, locking onto Lin Chuchu's position at a glance.
Seeing her face covered in blood, he was shocked and quickly made a few gestures, and the four teams behind him immediately dispersed and stood guard.
"Are you hurt?"
Lin Chuchu was silent for a moment, "I'm fine, are there any abnormalities in other areas?"
"No, there's only this one." Chen Jiawen looked past Lin Chuchu and saw the body behind her that had been stabbed into a hornet's nest...
Then he made another gesture and watched the two team members pack up the mutant corpses and take them away. Then he continued, "People have been sent to evacuate the crowd..." He turned his eyes to Ling Che who was standing beside him, "Who was with you?"
Lin Chuchu nodded and was about to say that Ling Che probably needed to be taken to Wang Yuzhou for hypnosis, when she saw him stand up straight by holding onto the tree trunk and said in a hoarse voice, "I am a researcher of the Spark Project, Ling Che."
How could Ling Che not know from looking at this situation that these people were special combatants? He had heard of them before, but had never seen them with his own eyes.
Spark is a national level one confidentiality project, and their research direction is to make the human body withstand genetic drugs to the greatest extent.
Now... Lin Che looked around at the lush forests around him, and he didn't expect that Ganluo Mountain was actually hiding a danger.
"The Spark Project? Then we are one family!"
While Lin Chuchu was looking puzzled, Chen Jiawen stepped forward enthusiastically and shook Ling Che's hand, and the two of them smiled knowingly.
So the person she was "on high alert" with all along the way was an individual from her own side?
Outrageous!
Seeing Ling Che reaching out his hand to her, Lin Chuchu shook it without much thought, interlacing her fingers with his. It was not until Chen Jiawen saw that their expressions were getting weirder that she smiled awkwardly.
"Chu Chu, you guys follow me down the mountain first. We will take over here. Remember to go to Yuzhou to have a chat first."
"..." Lin Chuchu really wanted to say that she was fine, but this incident clearly showed that not only did she have a problem, it was very serious and she was almost going mental!
Ling Che frowned slightly, "I have a student, but I haven't found him yet..."
Chen Jiawen said seriously, "Please believe that we will succeed in finding the person. There may be unknown dangers on the mountain. I hope you can evacuate this place first."
Ling Che didn't insist anymore, professional matters should be left to professionals.
The two boarded a helicopter in an open area and flew back to the foot of the mountain. They were the first group of people to evacuate so far.
After getting down the mountain, they got in the special office's car and drove back to the capital overnight. The driver looked unfamiliar. Lin Chuchu had never seen him before, so she didn't go up to say hello.
Ling Che still held her hand tightly. She wanted to explain but didn't know where to start. In the end, she just sighed, "I've been doing mental rehabilitation training recently. After what happened just now... it seems that it doesn't help much..."
He found an excuse for his "crazy" behavior.
"Chu Chu, you just saved me, have you forgotten? Don't put so much pressure on yourself, you are already very good."
Ling Che let go of her hand and hugged her still trembling shoulders tightly, "It will be fine."
Lin Chuchu uttered a low "hmm", feeling comforted. She pressed her cheek tightly against his chest, listening to the steady and powerful heartbeat, and gradually relaxed.

When she stepped into Wang Yuzhou's office again, he was in even worse condition than Lin Chuchu, with a pale face and untidy beard.
"Doctor Wang, are you okay?"
"Doctor Wang?"
After calling her twice, Wang Yuzhou came back to her senses, trembling. Seeing that it was Lin Chuchu who suddenly stood up and tried to pull her arm, she asked anxiously, "Chuchu, I heard that the captain called you before entering Tianchi? What did he say? Can you repeat it to me?"
"Oh, sure..."
After Lin Chuchu repeated Lu Feng's words word for word, Wang Yuzhou became visibly depressed and fell back into his chair.
Could it be that Lu Feng...
"The captain only took one day to come back the last few times, but this time..."
"But the captain told me that we haven't seen him recently!"
Wang Yuzhou pulled his hair in annoyance, "It won't take that long... unless..." He waved his hands with difficulty and said, "Chu Chu, we are not sure who can comfort each other. I suggest you go to the General Administration for psychological counseling first."
"Got it. I'll go! I believe the captain will be fine!"
In the original book, Lu Feng was not "possessed" this time, and she believed in her intuition.
Lin Chuchu didn't bother him anymore but left and went to the treatment room. It was a little dark on the mountain just now, and she was worried that Ling Che's wounds had not been treated properly.
As soon as I got to the door, I saw Shan Xiaoxuan coming out and closing the door of the treatment room. I hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Sister Xuanxuan, is the professor okay?"
"He's fine. He just lost too much blood and passed out. I gave him some plasma."
Shan Xiaoxuan took Lin Chuchu two steps outside and asked in a low voice, "Chuchu, is this guy a professor at your school? I heard he's also a researcher at Fire Seed. He's really young and promising!"
Lin Chuchu looked as if she had seen a ghost. Her eyes were shining. Could it be that...
"Why are you so stupid! It's obvious that the professor is interested in you! And he's quite gentle and polite. I'm telling you, if you meet a good man, you have to seize the moment!"
Lin Chuchu pulled her lips awkwardly, "Nothing..."
Shan Xiaoxuan patted her on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Captain is good, but this professor is not bad either. Chuchu, try your best to get them all! I'm counting on you!" Before leaving, she did not forget to blow Lin Chuchu a kiss.
Good man, your idea is really avant-garde! But does the captain know?
Gently pushing open the door of the treatment room, Ling Che was lying on the bed with his long arms and legs, which made the bed seem a little small. Lin Chuchu moved a chair and sat next to it.
There was nothing on his high nose bridge; his glasses had been broken in the chaos. The curve of his face was very three-dimensional, as if it were a sculpture. His lips were pale, perhaps due to excessive blood loss.
When Ling Che closed his eyes, he gave people an illusion of being cold and stern. She couldn't help but slow down her breathing, marveling at the unfairness of heaven. How could someone be so perfect in appearance and so gentle in character?
"Ding! The inhalation of Lingche's elemental fragrance has reached 100% for target three. Would the host like to start sleeping?"
Lin Chuchu hesitated for a moment when she recalled the details of her last dream, but then she became more determined when she thought that she might be able to reunite with her parents for a moment. "Go in!"
His consciousness was instantly withdrawn, and he fell limply to the side of the bed...
