"Mm." Su Xi nodded, and a smile appeared on its face, happy for Qiao Qiu.
Because Qiao Qiu had made arrangements in advance, the moment the vaccine was developed, all broadcasts became announcements of its development.
Suddenly, the streets were filled with people who were so excited they were in tears.
This is hope for life!
Qiao Qiu led Su Xi to the laboratory, where everyone was already crying.
Seeing the usually composed researchers crying like children, Qiao Qiu was also moved by them and shed tears.
"Lord City, the Lord City has arrived!"
Someone said something, and everyone rushed over.
The oldest researcher shook Qiao Qiu's hand and said excitedly, "Thank you, thank you for giving us this opportunity."
With tears in her eyes, Qiao Qiu smiled and said, "I should be thanking you. I should represent all the surviving humans and thank you for turning the hope of life into reality."
"No, if it weren't for your decisive action in stealing us from the various cities, we would never have been able to combine everyone's efforts to develop the vaccine," the veteran researcher said. "It was your decisiveness that saved everyone!"
“Lord of the city, we know how much infamy you have borne, yet you have always adhered to your principles. We are proud to have a leader like you!” said Liu Ke, the chief guard of the laboratory.
Qiao Qiu looked at the group of researchers, wiped away her tears, and got down to business, "I can't let the people of Nancheng enjoy this great experimental result alone. So, I will send you back to your original cities so that you can take the vaccine back and save more people."
“We know the city lord has such good intentions, but other city lords aren’t as easy to talk to as this one,” one of the researchers said, sounding a bit embarrassed.
Qiao Qiu recognized him; he was originally a researcher in Beicheng. "Don't worry, since I stole you out a few months ago, I was fully prepared. This month, you've been conducting scientific experiments, and I've been teaching the city lords how to be good people. You've achieved results, and so have I, so you can go back with peace of mind."
The researchers exchanged glances and then laughed. "Alright, we trust the city lord. Let's go back."
At this moment, Chief of Guard Liu Ke stepped forward and said, "City Lord, your birthday is in three days. Please allow the entire city to celebrate your birthday, firstly to celebrate your birthday and the rebirth of humanity, and secondly to bid farewell to the scientists."
"Well..." Qiao Qiu stroked her chin. To be honest, she hadn't even noticed when her birthday was. Besides, she had already gone this far; being a little more saintly shouldn't be a problem. She should send the person back as soon as possible to avoid the old guys from the other cities causing trouble again.
The veteran researcher smiled and said, "Lord, let's do as Chief of Police Liu says. We need to organize the data in the next three days. Also, please send all of this back to the laboratories in the three cities."
"What?" Qiao Qiu thought she had misheard. According to her, it shouldn't be like this. The experiment was successful, so wouldn't it be enough to just send the person back? Why would she need to send data?
The veteran researcher chuckled, “There’s too much data and it’s too complicated to carry around like this. So, we’ll have to trouble the city lord.”
"Okay, no problem." Qiao Qiu said with a long face. Was she destined to be a hard worker? She was about to have her birthday!
Su Xi felt both heartache and amusement, a barely perceptible hint of hurt flashing in her eyes.
The veteran researcher looked at Su Xi, hesitated for a moment, and before he could say anything more, Su Xi stopped him with a look.
Over the next three days, Qiao Qiu announced that she was going to celebrate her birthday and give a farewell party to the researchers. She then sent letters to the three city lords, telling them to turn on the supercomputer in the laboratory so she could transmit data and send the people back in three days.
The three city lords were extremely excited and rushed off immediately.
Then every day I eagerly awaited the delivery, staring at the data transfer bar with the excitement of a child.
At the same time, they also told the city's residents the news, and the residents were excited. Before long, the streets were filled with people crying with excitement, just like in the south city.
Merchants from the three cities, some from the southern part, were proudly boasting about their city lords. Qiao Qiu's inappropriate actions back then were now seen by everyone as the wisest course of action.
Everyone sang praises to Qiao Qiu and cheered for the researchers. After rebuilding their happy homes, Qiao Qiu and the researchers who developed the vaccine were all hailed as saviors of the world, and statues of them were erected in the square to be passed down through generations.
As for now, all the high-level zombies have been vaccinated, and the low-level zombies are gradually being laid to rest.
Just as Su Xi was looking for a birthday present for Qiao Qiu, Feng Yi secretly found Qiao Qiu and told her about Su Xi's zombie curse.
When Su Xi returned happily with the gift, she was pulled into the study by Qiao Qiu, who had been waiting for her for a long time.
Seeing her gloomy face, Su Xi's originally happy smile gradually faded.
"You already know."
Qiao Qiu was furious when she saw that it still seemed completely indifferent to its own life. "You should understand my feelings for you. If that day really comes, and I find out that I can actually save you, do you think I would forgive myself? Why didn't you tell me?"
“I’ve said it before, I won’t let anyone hurt you, not even myself.” Su Xi looked at her calmly.
"You're just that stubborn." Qiao Qiu raised her hand and manipulated the wind, immobilizing all its movements.
Su Xi was startled and tried to struggle, but couldn't break free.
Qiao Qiu picked up a needle. "Since you can't make the decision, then I'll make it for you. Anyway, you can't beat me."
After saying that, he pricked his middle finger hard, and a small drop of blood seeped out.
Qiao Qiu reached out and touched its forehead.
In an instant, the room was filled with a crimson light. Su Xi couldn't bear it and let out soft groans. When the light faded, Su Xi fainted.
Qiao Qiu could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground, exhausted.
Seeing the red dot between Su Xi's brows sparkling, Qiao Qiu gasped for breath, "So this is what it means to lose, to lose a hundred years of lifespan."
Qiao Qiu ultimately lost her support and collapsed to the ground; after all, a hundred years of lifespan is not something to be wasted.
She fainted and didn't see Su Xi's body change little by little, her arms and legs grew longer, her shoulders broadened, and her appearance also changed. Her clothes were too small and naturally tore into pieces.
...
When Qiao Qiu woke up, she found herself sleeping on the sofa. Before she could think about who had carried her up there, she suddenly felt someone standing by the window.
Qiao Qiu turned her head to look, and he happened to turn his head to look at her too. He had delicate features, short and neat chestnut hair, and wore a beige casual outfit. He had a slender and shapely figure. His dark eyes were deep and captivating.
This is an extremely handsome man.
Qiao Qiu had never seen anyone more handsome than him in this world.
