It's no wonder An Ge thinks that way.
Based on her experience, the newly created image of the chosen one is very similar to the original body's previous life, at most with added beauty filters to make it more attractive.
Before coming to the apocalypse, An Ge thought she might run into someone Meng Xia knew. Although Meng Xia said that all her relatives were gone, she had lived here before, so it wouldn't be surprising if someone recognized her.
Meng Xia looked at Wen Zihao with a puzzled expression, but couldn't find such a person in her memory.
"Perhaps it's true, as the store manager said, that people do have similarities."
Wen Zihao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the crisis was over. "I must have mistaken him for someone else. My friend is a man, haha."
No sooner had she finished speaking than Meng Xia stood with her hands on her hips, looking furious, and asked, "What do you mean? Are you saying I look like a man?"
"No, no," Wen Zihao was almost in tears; his mouth had really offended people.
Meng Xia suddenly remembered something, and her expression changed. "Wait, what's the name of the person you're talking about?"
"Meng Qiu."
"Meng... Qiu!" Meng Xia was stunned, even doubting that she had heard correctly.
Looking at Meng Xia, and thinking about that name, An Ge had a guess in her mind.
"Xiaxia?"
Meng Xia raised her head with teary eyes, completely revealing her vulnerability to An Ge, "Little Ge'er, my brother, Meng Qiu, is my brother, and he's still alive."
When the apocalypse came, after learning that her parents had become zombies, she rushed to Meng Qiu's school and finally learned from his classmates that Meng Qiu was surrounded by a horde of zombies.
She wanted to continue searching, but she was just an ordinary person, barely able to survive, and even if she found Meng Qiu, he would just be a soulless zombie.
Over the years, she had long since accepted the reality that her family members had all passed away, but she never expected to hear news about her younger brother from someone else.
"Where is he now? How is he doing?" Meng Xia stared intently at Wen Zihao, her heart pounding with anxiety, afraid of hearing something bad from him.
Wen Zihao was also stunned. He never expected to meet his brother's sister. Only then did he learn Meng Xia's full name.
“Meng Qiu is our team’s healer. Even if Lou Han targets me, it won’t harm him.” Wen Zihao was clearly very happy. “I didn’t expect you to be Meng Qiu’s sister. I should have thought of that earlier. You and he look so alike.”
"That's right, we all inherited the best traits from our parents." Knowing that Meng Qiu was safe, Meng Xia also felt like joking.
"Little Ge'er, I want to go to the Bright Base." Knowing her loved ones were still alive, how could Meng Xia stay put?
“Okay, I’ll go with you.” An Ge was also happy for Meng Xia.
"And...and me too." Wen Zihao said cautiously, raising his hand. Although he was living a peaceful life at the inn, he had never forgotten to expose Lou Han's evil deeds.
At this moment, Meng Qiu, who was being thought of by the two men, looked at her injured teammate, her thoughts churning.
Since the captain left, the vice-captain's actions have made him feel that the once harmonious Bright Squad is now in chaos. If he didn't still hold onto the hope of bringing the captain back, he would have left the team long ago.
The captain saved my life, not Lou Han.
But his current situation makes him increasingly suspicious that the captain's disappearance was caused by someone.
Thinking of the brothers who had been ostracized by Lou Han, Meng Qiu's eyes flashed with danger.
If Lou Han really did something detrimental to the captain, he would fight to the death to avenge the captain, since he had nothing left to lose in this world anyway.
"Meng Qiu, are you sure you can handle this? My injury has been going on for days, why does it still hurt so much?"
Meng Qiu knew this person; he used to be just a nobody. He didn't know why Lou Han valued him so much.
“I am a wood-type ability user, not a pure healer. If you want to recover quickly, you should ask Lou Han to find you treatment.”
Huang Boda snorted coldly, thinking that sooner or later the captain would kick this guy out of the team and recruit a real healer.
After Huang Boda left, Meng Qiu sighed. "A petty person gets ahead. Is Captain Lou misjudging people, or is he doing this on purpose?"
Moreover, since Captain Lou took over, the team's benefits have been getting worse and worse. As the only healer in the team, he is already having a hard time, let alone the brothers who are charging into battle.
Meng Qiu was not a sociable person. He only occasionally heard his teammates complaining during treatment that Lou Han was eliminating dissidents and that only those who truly followed him would have a good life.
There was even a brother who was kicked out of the team by Lou Han for some inexplicable crime simply because he said a few good things about the former captain.
The reason he didn't leave the team was not only because he still held onto a sliver of hope, but more importantly because Lou Han wouldn't agree to his departure.
Although wood-type ability users are not pure healers, they can still be used for healing in critical situations.
Unless he finds a new backer, or Lou Han finds a new treatment.
Meng Qiu felt that Lou Han's tolerance for him was getting lower and lower, especially recently with the increase in casualties in the squad, and his ability to meet the squad's needs.
He didn't expect his chance to leave would come so soon.
Since Wen Zihao left the team, Lou Han was in a position of power for a while, but several heavy losses while leading the team brought him back to reality from his high position as the controller.
Previously, because of Wen Zihao, he had the illusion that "I can do it myself" and even thought that the other party was useless.
After several setbacks, Lou Han finally realized that Wen Zihao's superpower was indeed very useful. In addition, the miscellaneous affairs in the team were bothering him, making it impossible for him to be a hands-off manager, which made him increasingly regretful.
If I had known this would happen, I would have spared Wen Zihao's life. At least, he was still very useful to the team.
"Captain!" Lou Han used to think the word "captain" was wonderful, but lately, whenever someone called him that, it never meant anything good.
He looked at the newcomer with a gloomy expression. "What is it now?"
Huang Boda wore a fawning smile. Ever since he found the right powerful backer, he, a low-level ability user, could boss people around like the back of his hand. He was enjoying this kind of life.
"Recently, many ordinary people have left the base. Can you guess why?"
Lou Han looked coldly at the newcomer. He really looked down on Huang Boda, but small people have their advantages, such as being well-informed.
"When did you become so concerned about the affairs of ordinary people? Just say what you want to say."
Huang Boda wasn't upset at being rejected; instead, he said happily, "I heard that someone opened an inn not far from the base, and it's very well-stocked. These ordinary people must have gone to the inn to seek refuge after leaving the base. Captain, I'm not making this up, you see!"
Lou Han was about to get angry when he saw Huang Boda take out a bag of bread, and he could smell the aroma of the bread even through the packaging.
"Where did this come from?"
“Last time someone came back from the inn, they brought some supplies to sell. Because of this, more ordinary people left the base. The news from the inn hasn’t spread throughout the base yet, so we can…” Huang Boda’s eyes gleamed with malice.
