Chapter 24 Chapter 24 She is the only variable in the deal...
Seeing Si Ruxu's calm profile, Si Luoheng's evil thoughts were instantly extinguished.
She could never guess Si Ruxu's thoughts. From childhood to adulthood, although they were only a few years apart, Si Ruxu always kept a distance from her.
Just like when she was a child, one Spring Festival, Si Ruxu brought Si Qi back home and told everyone before she got home that this was someone she found at school, someone she liked very much, and she liked her very much, like a family member.
She carefully made a whole page of notes and decorated the room in her favorite blue and white tones.
A few years later, Si Ruxu said indifferently that she didn't love him anymore. Si Luoheng rushed to Si Ruxu from the laboratory with a dazed look on his face. He only saw the woman shaking the scarlet wine in the glass, her red lips slightly opened, and a faint smell of alcohol came to his face.
"Luoheng, is it wrong not to love someone?" Si Luoheng looked at the corner of the table, where there were opened boxes and gifts thrown into the trash can.
Si Luoheng shook her head. She accompanied Si Ruxu in drinking one drink after another until the woman was drunk beside the bed. She helped her to the bed and prepared to get up and leave.
The distance between her and her sister was like this, neither far nor close. But when she was about to step out of the bedroom, the light of the blood moon fell on Si Ruxu through the window.
Si Luoheng's eyes were dark and moist. She looked at Si Ruxu in the moonlight, her rosy face and pale joints, and watched Si Ruxu's fingertips grow longer inch by inch under the blood moon.
She slowly approached and took out a tube of purple liquid from her pocket. A hint of struggle flashed in her eyes, but soon, she aimed the needle at Si Ruxu's arm and stabbed it. The liquid was injected into Si Ruxu's body bit by bit.
Si Ruxu's body gradually returned to normal. Si Luoheng was at the door. He took a last look at her through the crack in the door, put on Si Ruxu's windbreaker, and turned to walk out.
Within a few days, several cases of human mutation occurred in S City. The mutated humans were conscious and did not bite people, but their bodies had changed and their blood turned green. Si Luoheng disguised himself and entered the hospital to secretly take samples of their blood.
She produced the virus in large quantities, climbed to the highest point of the city one night, spread the virus into the air, and let the evening breeze carry it to every corner of the city.
The so-called mutants are just humans whose bodies have been mutated by viruses. They are another form of mutation, while ordinary people are normal humans who have not been infected by the virus.
…
Why did the massacre only target people with special abilities? Why did some people awaken while others did not? Everything seemed to make sense in an instant.
Si Ruxu's face was pale. She knew that Si Qi had left S City in the afternoon of the day Si Luoheng spread the virus and traveled abroad to relax. He didn't return there until a long time later.
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for Si Qi to have supernatural powers.
Si Luoheng looked at Si Ruxu's increasingly bright expression and smiled ostentatiously, "Has he figured out something? If he wants to destroy human civilization, then he must wish all the superpowers dead. Why does he keep saving Si Qi?"
"Sister, Si Qi is not in the same camp as us. Her superpowers come from Him, not the virus. So, as long as she is alive, the apocalypse will not end."
Si Ruxu's finger joints turned white from exertion. She had thought that the end of the world and Si Qi were inextricably linked, but she had not expected it to be this way.
"As long as Si Qi is here, the apocalypse won't end? How can I trust you?" Si Ruxu confronted calmly, while weighing the pros and cons in her mind.
"I guessed." Si Luoheng blinked, sat down and poured himself a glass of red wine, took a sip, and put it down in disgust.
"I wanted to know too, so whether it was studying her or putting her behind that door, it was all for the purpose of killing her." Si Luoheng added with a smile, "Sister, thanks to you."
The light screen in front of her turned into Si Qi again. She was kneeling on the ground, surrounded by the corpses of monsters. She wrote the number on the ground with her bloody fingers - nine thousand five hundred and sixty-seven.
The further back she went, the stronger the monsters became. In front of her, countless mutant zombies with hanging heads staggered towards her. She used her spatial ability to isolate them, but she felt a clear pain in her back.
She looked down and saw the green claws on her chest. She had been stabbed in the chest by the mutant mantis. Blood spurted out of her mouth uncontrollably. She grabbed the claws on her chest and pulled hard. The green claws broke and were pulled out, along with the blood on her hands and chest.
Blood-red lines crawled up to the corners of her eyes. She punched it hard, and the mutant mantis was torn apart by her fist. Si Qi's vision became blurred and she fell to the ground uncontrollably.
The voice in the dream came back to me, vague, coming from far away.
"Why...why should I help them...why are you unwilling..."
What don't you want to do?
Help...who
Si Qi wanted to say something, but his whole body was unable to move and he could not make a sound. All he felt was a tearing pain coming from his internal organs.
Just a little bit more, just a little bit more.
Is she going to die? But what should Si Ruxu do? If she had known earlier... she would have secretly accepted the token from that person.
Before she fainted, she seemed to hear a man's voice arguing with someone, and then something was stuffed into her mouth. Then her body sank into a soft space, bumping up and down all the way.
It was unknown how long she slept. When Si Qi woke up, she found herself lying in a hibernation chamber. Nutrient solution and repair solution were continuously injected into her body through tubes. As soon as she moved, the hibernation chamber started to alarm, and then the surrounding lights turned red.
She was silent for a while and then lay back down.
The mechanical door opened, and the sound of human footsteps approached little by little.
"Awake? It took me a lot of effort to save you."
Si Qi poked his head out of the hibernation chamber and saw Luo Fenghe, who was wearing a white coat with obvious gray and black under his eyes, as if he had not rested for many days.
"I've been sleeping for so many days. Where is Si Ruxu? Where is she? Is she still... alive?"
Si Qi had just woken up and his speech was still a little awkward. The young man in front of him pulled the corner of his mouth speechlessly when he heard what he said.
"Don't worry, Si Ruxu won't be in any danger even if you die." Luo Fenghe opened the hibernation chamber and saw that Si Qi's wounds had healed well. He nodded with satisfaction, "Fortunately, I installed a bug on you."
"Did you know your ex-wife has a sister?"
Si Qi nodded. She and Si Ruxu went back there one year, but they only met once.
"That woman from the research institute, that's her. Si Ruxu is using you and deliberately letting you bring her over."
Luo Fenghe looked at Si Qi's calm eyes and chuckled. He knew that Si Qi would not believe his casual words.
Some things still require the owner to come in person.
Si Qi really didn't believe it. In her impression, Si Luoheng was a child who wore a school uniform, kept her head down, was taciturn and not very attractive. She was completely different from the woman in the research institute before.
She was not sure whether Luo Fenghe had snatched her away or rescued her, but no matter what, Luo Fenghe saved her life. After she got out of the hibernation chamber, her joints felt a little stiff.
"How long have I been asleep? Do you need me to do anything for you?"
Si Qi held onto the hibernation chamber and saw the red lines spreading around his eyes through the image reflected by the metal.
It must have been seriously injured and is still recovering.
"You've been asleep for three months. The second round of massacres is about to begin. I need you to go with me."
Si Qi nodded. This request was not excessive. "Do you know that you will participate in the second round of the massacre?"
Luo Fenghe pulled up his sleeves, revealing a blood-red pattern. "Preliminary estimates show that this totem appears on 10,000 psychics. We speculate that this is the second round of names."
Si Qi searched his body and looked at Luo Fenghe in confusion: "I don't have it on me, how can I go in with you?"
"Just tell your mother."
Si Qi:???
Luo Fenghe laughed dryly: "Just tell Him that you're going."
During the three months when Si Qi was on the verge of life and death, all natural disasters bypassed their base. As a superpower created by Himself, Si Qi should have been present in every major purge, but Si Qi was injured too badly this time.
As Luo Fenghe expected, there was no second mark on Si Qi's body.
Si Qi whispered, "Hello, I want to go on a big killing spree."
Her palm suddenly felt hot, and a blood-red totem slowly appeared, but it was very small and looked cuter than Luo Fenghe's. There was also a small heart next to the totem.
…
What is so cute.
Luo Fenghe's eyes darkened, flickering with inexplicable emotions, "How could there be a creator who doesn't love his own children? We did that in the past, and you do too now."
Therefore, in the early stages of the apocalypse, they should have found a way to negotiate with Him instead of directly spreading viruses to transform humans and robbing nature and other animals of their habitats until they completely angered Him.
Si Qi was very confused. She couldn't understand a word Luo Fenghe said.
Luo Fenghe hired a professional health worker to do rehabilitation training for her. Si Qi strolled around the base every day and gradually discovered many differences.
For example, there is a living area for ordinary people in the base. The farmers there work on the land nourished by the earth-type mutants, cooperate and chat with the wood-type mutants, and there are also handicraftsmen, teachers and children.
Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner, just like before the end of the world.
Si Qi looked down from the floor-to-ceiling windows in the core area and could see the entire picture of the base. She liked to look at it this way. Sometimes after completing rehabilitation training, she could look at it for a long time alone.
Luo Fenghe occasionally came to accompany her and asked her what she was looking at, but she just shook her head.
She herself didn't realize it, as she hadn't experienced such a harmonious environment in a long time. The safest place she could remember was her own little house when it rained.
"Si Qi."
Si Qi heard the voice and turned his head to look at Luo Fenghe. He smiled with his lips curved. The sun was slowly setting, and some warm light fell on him, casting a few shadows.
"If you and Si Ruxu were on opposite sides, what would you do?"
Si Qi looked at the harmonious world under the French window, where ordinary people were treated kindly, and responded softly.
"I'll stick to myself."
It's very light and is blown away little by little by the wind.
