Huh? I'm injured again.
And I haven't told her yet, and I didn't tell her when I came back.
Su Tao was a little worried:
"Is it serious?"
Shi Ziyue sighed, "How should I put it? He's been hurt so often. I was worried at first, but after so many times, I got used to it. This time, I heard his abdomen was stabbed through and he was sent back unconscious."
Su Tao's heart was lifted, thinking that it was a life-or-death situation.
"I'm going to see him today. Sister Taozi, will you come with me?"
Su Tao said without hesitation: "Go, just bring some food to him, what about Cen Lao Er and the others?"
Shi Ziyue showed a sad expression and sniffed: "Brother Zhuang Hu is gone. Brother Cen and the others went to take care of his funeral."
Su Tao's eyes suddenly turned red.
Su Tao, the honest and taciturn man, was in a daze, as if he was still assigning a room to him yesterday, asking him to live with the talkative Dang Xingyan and keep a close eye on the outspoken Dang Xingyan.
Following Shi Ziyue to the Pioneer Army Headquarters, Su Tao went through a series of security checks, was searched twice, and took the elevator down to the third underground floor. Finally, she saw Shi Zijin lying in the capsule recovery chamber.
Seeing the two coming, Shi Zijin opened the transparent cabin door, adjusted the angle and sat up.
Looking at Su Tao's worried face, he smiled lightly: "It's okay."
Su Tao sat down beside his bed: "Last time you lost an arm and you said it was okay."
Shi Ziyue skillfully lifted up her brother's sleeve and said, "Fortunately, your prosthetic limb is fine. Dr. Vina has been very busy lately and certainly doesn't have time to fix it for you. Is there anything else broken?"
This question made Su Tao tense up and she looked Shi Zijin up and down.
Shi Zijin was at a loss for words: "No, don't worry about me. Tell me how you guys are doing recently? Is Taoyang okay?"
He asked the last sentence while looking at Su Tao. No matter how hard he tried to hide it, Su Tao could still detect some traces of fatigue and sadness in his beautiful almond-shaped eyes.
No one was sadder than him, the captain, in losing his teammates.
When she was a child, she heard adults say that the pioneers risked their lives to find seeds for everyone, to go to various abandoned cities to retrieve the lost technology, and to revive and protect the fire of human civilization.
Now twenty years have passed, everything that needs to be recovered has been recovered, and the major bases are also continuing to develop. Why do people like Shi Zijin still need to go out and fight for their lives?
Seeing this, I thought someone had bullied her. Shi Zijin's face suddenly darkened:
"Did anyone bully you?"
Before he left, he told his people to keep an eye on Taoyang secretly. How could there still be people who are so blind?
Su Tao quickly waved her hands: "No, I just don't understand why you still need to go out on missions, especially such life-threatening missions? Do you have to do it?"
Shi Zijin was stunned by the question for a moment, then smiled and shook his head:
"The peaceful and safe world you see is nothing but an illusion. We exist to maintain this illusion, to ensure that danger never appears before you. We will die for this cause without regret."
Su Tao was shocked by these words, turned her head away, and choked with sobs.
At this time, the door of the sanatorium was pushed open, and Cen Laoer and his group came back. They were a little surprised to see Su Tao there.
But they didn't shy away from anything, as they were all familiar with each other. After greeting each other, they directly spoke to Shi Zijin:
"Captain, the old commander asked you to go to his place when you wake up."
Then he took out a transparent sealed bag and handed it to Shi Zijin:
“This is what we brought back this time.”
Su Tao looked over and saw a feather in the bag?
She was not sure because the feather was so strange, like feathers as red as human blood growing on human bones.
When Shi Zijin saw this thing, his body tensed up immediately, and his originally delicate and handsome eyebrows showed a hint of annoyance.
Cen Tianjiao's hands were shaking as he held the bag.
The original purpose of this mission was to find other "Blood Scythes", which are the evolved zombies that were recently discovered. They are named because their finger bones turn into sharp sickles when they attack, and they are extremely fast and every blow they make draws blood.
As a result, they didn't find the blood sickle, but they did find a little boy who was a survivor in an abandoned garage.
The little boy was about four or five years old, thin and small, with a very bad complexion. Around him were more than a dozen dead bodies lying in a mess. There was a bloody hole in the stomach of each of these bodies, and they died in a horrible manner.
Cen Tianjiao thought that this place had been attacked by zombies not long ago, and the little boy was lucky enough to hide and save his life.
Zhuang Hu also thought the same as him.
Zhuang Hu saw that the boy's vigilance had dropped a lot, so he put away his gun and said as he approached:
"It's okay, the uncles are here to rescue you and take you home."
The little boy, who had been silent all this time, suddenly raised his face when he heard this. His face was pale and looked not like a living person. He asked in a childish voice:
"Uncle, I'm sick. Will you still take me home and not abandon me?"
Zhuang Hu's footsteps stopped instantly and his face changed drastically.
"Uncle, you've changed your mind, haven't you? You're just as disgusted with me as they are with my illness and want to abandon me, right?"
With every word the little boy spoke, an inch more of bone wings grew from his back. The wings, which looked like human bones, stretched out behind him as if they were covered in blood.
"In that case, you should die like them."
The bright red bone wings were suddenly raised high, revealing a fierce and sharp light, and pierced straight into Zhuang Hu's chest.
"careful!"
"team leader--"
"Tiger——"
Cen Tianjiao shook his head vigorously, getting rid of the scene of that day from his mind, took a deep breath and said:
"Captain, although you severely injured it in the end, its bone wings are very fast, and we didn't use them, and it escaped. We only found this at the scene. Besides, this is a serious matter, so you should speak to the old commander in person."
A powerful zombie that is intelligent and retains a human appearance, and has a pair of strange bone wings. This will overturn mankind's 20 years of research and records on zombies.
Shi Zijin took it and said "OK" in a deep voice.
After Cen Tianjiao and the others left, Shi Ziyue asked curiously:
"Brother, what's in this bag?"
Shi Zijin lowered his eyes: "The danger behind the illusion."
