Shortly after taking the medication, Zhang Jianzhou fell into a coma again and did not wake up immediately.
I checked on him and found that he was fine, which put my mind at ease.
"It seems what he said about the attack is true. So, it also means that the research institute's experiments on him are true." I was surprised. Although it was a bit hard to believe, judging from Zhang Jianzhou's condition just now, what he said about the research institute should be true.
As for whether the other things are true, I have no idea.
However, since he really does have a fit, this matter is very promising. As long as I can control him in this matter, I can use him to do some things.
I smiled, looking at Zhang Jianzhou's current state; it would take him some time to wake up.
So I quietly left the room and when I got outside, I saw that the kid guarding the door was still sleeping.
I gave him a push, and the kid immediately woke up.
He looked at me in surprise and asked, "Who are you?"
I said, "My surname is Lu, and I'm a doctor. Now you know who I am."
He paused for a moment, then remembered and said, "Oh, it's Dr. Lu Xiaonan, isn't it?"
I nodded slightly and asked, "What's your name?"
He yawned and said wearily, "My name is Wu Lin, you can just call me Xiao Wu."
As soon as Wu Ling finished speaking, he suddenly remembered his purpose for being there and immediately asked, "Are you here to see Dr. Zhang?"
I nodded and said, "I've already checked on him. He's fine. He woke up for a while, but then went back to sleep. Don't disturb him."
"Oh, I see." Wu Lin scratched his head and asked curiously, "Dr. Lu, everyone's saying Dr. Zhang was bitten by a zombie? Is that true? Will Dr. Zhang turn into a zombie?"
I said, "He was bitten yesterday. If he were going to turn into a zombie, he would have done so long ago. Why would he have to wait until now? Don't worry, I guess the zombie's teeth didn't bite too deep, so he wasn't infected. He's fine. I'll come over and check him again after he wakes up. Don't worry."
Wu Lin nodded and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Dr. Lu."
I smiled, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "You just stay here and keep an eye on things. If Zhang Lincai comes over later, tell him he doesn't need to go in and can just come find me directly."
Wu Lin nodded. "Understood, Dr. Lu."
After I finished explaining, I went up to the third floor.
When I arrived at the room on the third floor, it was exactly six o'clock. As soon as I entered, I saw Sister Jing discussing something with Song Muyuan in the living room.
Their faces immediately relaxed when they saw me return.
I noticed their strange expressions and asked, "What's wrong? Why do you all look like that?"
Jingjie looked at me worriedly and asked, "Where did you go all night? Song Muyuan and I didn't see you when we got up. We thought something had happened to you."
I chuckled and said, "Sister Jing, didn't I tell you last night that I was going to the second floor to keep an eye on Zhang Jianzhou? Have you forgotten?"
Sister Jing said, "I haven't forgotten. I just thought you would be back soon, but you didn't come back all night. We were all so worried."
Song Muyuan also said, "Yes, Brother Lu, it's really worrying that you disappeared so easily."
I was also helpless and said, "I'm sorry for making you worry. If it happens again, I will explain it to you. By the way, let me get some sleep first. I haven't slept all night. If anyone comes looking for me, just wake me up."
When Sister Jing heard that I hadn't slept all night, she stopped nagging me and quickly told me to go to sleep.
I didn't go to my younger sister's room, but instead went to Song Muyuan's room to rest.
I lay on the bed for a short while, and the moment I closed my eyes, I fell asleep.
I should sleep a little longer now, because I'll probably have to deal with Ye Qian and the others when they arrive, which will likely make me even more tired. So I should take advantage of this free time and get some sleep.
...
I don't know how much time passed, but Sister Jing woke me up and said that Zhang Lincai and Ye Qian had come over.
I got out of bed, glanced at the time, and realized it was already nine o'clock. I yawned after getting up, feeling utterly exhausted.
However, the fatigue I feel now is completely different from the fatigue I felt before. This fatigue is just because I haven't fully woken up yet, and it will disappear in a while.
I saw a bottle of mineral water on the bedside table, picked it up and took a sip, then washed my face with some water before going out into the living room. There I saw Zhang Lincai and Ye Qian sitting on the sofa waiting for me.
As soon as they saw me come out, they stood up and shook hands with me.
Zhang Lincai was already familiar with the place, but this was indeed their first meeting with Ye Qian.
"You must be Dr. Lu," Ye Qian asked with a smile, extending his hand.
I reached out and shook his hand, saying, "Yes."
Ye Qian said, "Thank you so much. If it weren't for Dr. Lu, I'm afraid I would be dead by now."
I said, "Actually, it was also luck. If I had come any later, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to save you."
Ye Qian said with a smile, "So this is fate, Dr. Lu."
At this moment, Sister Jing said, "Let's all sit down and talk."
Everyone sat down without being polite.
Ye Qian cut to the chase and asked, "Dr. Lu, I heard from Zhang Lin that you came to the central town yesterday. So, you're also a raider?"
I glanced at Sister Jing and Song Muyuan, nodded, and said, "You could say that, but we've found a place to stay now and rarely go out to rob anymore."
Ye Qian was surprised, "You've found a place to stay? So, there are a lot of you?"
I gave a wry smile and said, "No, we don't have many people. Actually, we came to the central town yesterday to find out something. And this thing happens to be related to you."
Ye Qian looked at me with a puzzled and curious expression. "What is it?"
I said, "Didn't I just say we found a place to stay? That place is on the outskirts of Mingzhu City. I think you should know this place, right?"
Ye Qian was taken aback, then frowned and asked, "The outskirts of Mingzhu City? That research institute?"
I nodded. "Yes, that's the research institute."
Ye Qian opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.
I said, "Mr. Ye, the purpose of my initial visit here was simply to ask you why you spread the news and instigated those raider squads to attack this research institute? We were living there peacefully, and then some raiders inexplicably came to fight us. It's really going too far."
Upon hearing this, Ye Qian burst into laughter.
I asked, puzzled, "What are you laughing at?"
