Chapter 584 Mysterious Research Institute
After beating Ye Qian until his face was covered in blood, Yao Chengjie finally let him go and left the cell.
Yao Chengjie asked me, "When do you plan to kill him?"
I said, "Two days later."
"Why?"
I said, “I want him to experience despair, and I want my friends to come here and watch them die.”
Yao Chengjie didn't seem to care about what I said, but simply asked, "On the day I kill them, can I personally kill Ye Qian?"
I said, "No problem."
"Thanks," Yao Chengjie said. "It's getting late, could you please arrange a room for us?"
I said, "No problem."
After arranging rooms for them, I went up to the rooftop alone.
I plan to go to the safe house to find Fei Lichao and the others again tomorrow. After they come back, I can tell the little girl about her father. Although I really don't want to tell him, I have no choice. The little girl has the right to know about this. If I keep hiding it from her, it won't be a good thing for her.
So what needs to be told still needs to be told.
I hadn't been here long when Pu Weichao suddenly came up to the rooftop, which surprised me a bit.
He was also surprised to see me on the rooftop, as if he hadn't expected it.
He glanced at the beer in his hand and said, "There's only one bottle. Should I go get another one?"
I said, "One bottle is enough, we can share it."
Pu Weichao smiled and came to my side. Looking at the dark night around us, he said, "Do you remember when we first arrived in Jiajiang, in that school, we stood on the rooftop like this, gazing into the distance, right?"
I nodded and said, "Yes, that period was really peaceful. I thought it would continue like that forever, but who knew that so many things would happen later. It was really unpredictable."
Pu Weichao said, "The past is the past. When I ran away, I thought you were all dead, but I didn't expect you to still be alive. You even killed Zhou Liang today. You're amazing."
I said, "What's this to me? If it weren't for other people's help, it would have been impossible for me to kill Zhou Liang. But what about you? How have you been getting by these past few days?"
Pu Weichao said, "How else could I get through it? I just kept going day by day. Everything that was going to happen has happened. Xiaomin is gone too. Although it hurts a lot, I know it's time to let go."
Upon hearing Ke Jiamin's name, I suddenly remembered that Pu Weichao had also visited the research institute, so I asked, "By the way, there's something I'd like to ask you."
"Yes, go ahead and ask."
I asked, "When you were at the research institute with Zhou Liang, did you ever see Wu Shuang?"
Pu Weichao shook his head and said, "No, what's wrong?"
Hearing this answer, I was a little disappointed, and then said, "Zhou Liang told me before that Wu Shuang might still be alive. He said he had seen him, but I don't know if what he said is true."
Pu Weichao asked in confusion, "Is that what he told you?"
I nodded and said, "Yes, that's what he told me. I think he's lying to me."
Pu Weichao thought about it carefully and said, "No, I think what he said might be true."
"What do you mean?" I asked, puzzled.
Pu Weichao said, "Back when we were in that research institute, we saw many incredible things, such as people who survived being bitten by zombies, and people who came back to life. Ke Jiamin actually had a chance to come back to life, but because we arrived too late, she was not cured and had already become brain dead, so we couldn't bring her back to life. But Wu Shuang's situation was different."
"How is it different?"
Pu Weichao said, "Back when I was at that research institute, I saw people similar to Wu Shuang. They were also bitten by zombies, then took some medicine, and died quickly. When they died, their complexions were similar to Wu Shuang's, and their condition was the same as Wu Shuang's; they didn't turn into zombies. But not long after, they came back to life! As if nothing had happened."
Hearing Pu Weichao's account, I suddenly remembered Zhang Jianzhou's situation. When Zhang Jianzhou was alive, he told me the same thing. He had indeed died, but he came back to life.
Wu Shuang is also very likely in this situation, so it is very possible that Wu Shuang is still alive?
I asked, "If Wu Shuang is still alive, is it possible that she is currently in that research institute?"
Pu Weichao said, "That's very possible."
"Where is that research institute?" I asked hurriedly.
Pu Weichao shook his head and said, "I don't know. Zhou Liang and I found this research institute purely by chance, but we had no idea where it was. Besides, our departure was also very strange. The research institute was right there, but it disappeared after we left."
"That's strange?" I was surprised.
“Yes, it’s that strange,” Pu Weichao said. “But there’s also a possibility that Wu Shuang was buried on the mountain by us. After she woke up, she might not have gone to the research institute. Maybe she’s still in Hangzhou?”
Upon hearing this, I thought about it and realized it was indeed very possible.
Wu Shuang was buried on the mountain by us. If she wakes up, she will definitely be looking for me in Hangzhou. Anything is possible.
I said, "I want to go to Hangzhou."
Pu Weichao patted my shoulder and said, "Don't rush. Let's go to Hangzhou after things stabilize in the central town."
I nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to Hangzhou to find her then. Whether I can find her or not, I'll go."
No matter what, it's still a glimmer of hope. It would be good if Wu Shuang were alive, and it would be even better if she could be found. If she can't be found, I just hope she can live a peaceful and happy life. Nothing else matters.
...
The next morning, I went to the safe house and brought Fei Lichao and the others to the central town. On the way, I told them about the things that had happened in the central town recently. I also told the little girl about her father's death. After hearing this, the little girl threw herself into my arms and cried incessantly. All I could do was hold her and couldn't do anything else.
The world is just that cruel.
Not everyone can survive, but those who can survive should persevere, because our lives are hard-won and must be cherished.
The future will always come, and as for what it will be like, we can only wait and see, since no one can see what the future holds.
