The City Lord's Mansion.
Doctors and researchers continue to analyze Si Beiting's blood every day.
At the same time, they also sent people to move many top-notch instruments from the research institute to the underground research room.
Director Wu is so worried that he's lost all his hair.
Chu Xinxin, the pillar of the research institute, has disappeared, and all the equipment in the institute has been moved out. He's practically left all the staff at the institute, leaving him all alone.
That day, Director Wu finally spotted Wei Yan on the street and quickly went up to him and grabbed him.
"Xiao Wei, can you do me a favor?"
"Director Wu, what are you saying?"
Wei Yan spends almost every day at Holy Light Hospital, and since the city lord is deliberately keeping it from him, he is unaware of what has happened recently.
"What? You're saying Professor Chu has disappeared!"
"Yes, it's been six days already. Can you help me look for it?"
Director Wu looked mournful.
"Didn't you report Professor Chu's disappearance to the police?"
"We've already reported it to the city lord and sent people to search for it, but we still can't find it."
Director Wu is just grasping at straws. If they can't even find someone in the City Lord's Mansion, how can Wei Yan possibly find them?
"Where's Jack? Have you asked him?"
"I haven't seen him in a long time."
Wei Yan seemed to remember something, his expression changed, and he immediately ran towards the city lord's mansion.
It ran right up to Jack before stopping.
"Jack, where is Professor Chu?!" Wei Yan asked with hostility in his eyes.
Jack seemed to be getting weaker and weaker, and even turning his head to look at him was a little difficult: "How should I know? I'm looking for her too. The whole world is looking for her."
Wei Yan didn't believe it: "In the entire base, besides you, who else has the ability to hide someone so well that no one can find them..."
Jack looked up and stared at him quietly.
Who has the ability?
Lord of the city.
Wei Yan could tell from Jack's eyes that he hadn't said anything more.
"How could that be? Doesn't Father always tell you first if anything happens?"
Wei Yan's voice was somewhat angry.
“Assistant Wei, I didn’t say anything.” Jack pressed the button on the automatic wheelchair.
The wheelchair rolled past Wei Yan.
Jack said, "Assistant Wei, I can't help you in my current condition, but I can tell you the last place Professor Chu was seen."
......
Almost everyone is looking for Chu Xinxin.
After leaving Jack's place, Wei Yan searched the vicinity of Squad 01's villa for a day and a night, but found nothing.
The cement wall behind the empty sewer had long been smashed open by the guards, and behind the wall was the cellar of a residential house.
The security guards investigated the residents, who said they had only moved in in the last two years and that the sewers were built ten years ago; they knew nothing about it.
Wei Yan suggested, "Could we search the entire basement's basement?"
"Assistant Wei, this... requires the city lord's order."
The security guards responded.
Wei Yan steeled himself and went directly to his father.
The two had a big argument in the office, but Wei Yan still got the approval in the end.
The guards began a thorough search.
Director Yu turned around and urged Yu Hua again.
Yu Hua was very troubled: "Now, I'm not the only one responsible for Si Beiting!"
"Tomorrow, I'll draw the police away, and you'll have to act accordingly."
"what you up to?"
"Don't worry about it." Director Yu put on his hat. "Si Beiting has the gene for the drug in his body. You just need to stop using that inhibitor for one day, and he will find a way to come out on his own."
After saying that, he walked alone into the snowstorm.
Director Yu was wearing a black leather jacket, which billowed and fell back down in the cold wind.
Yu Hua then noticed that Director Yu had lost a lot of weight.
So much so that if he blinked, he would no longer recognize that person as his father.
......
The next day, Yu Hua's heart was in his throat.
It wasn't until he was about to draw blood from Si Beiting that he took a deep breath and suppressed his anxiety.
He secretly threw away the inhibitor he was about to inject into Si Beiting and replaced it with two vials of glucose.
Just as he was about to go in, an older professor of higher rank stopped him.
"Xiao Yu, wait a minute."
Yu Hua forced himself to remain calm and turned around: "What's wrong?"
"The city lord has ordered that the autopsy begin today. Administer these two doses of anesthetic."
Yu Hua's two vials of glucose were replaced with two vials of anesthetic.
"Isn't this too much?"
That dosage would knock out ten cows, right?
"Too much? I think it's not enough." The old professor patted Yu Hua on the shoulder. "That's the real zombie king."
Yu Huaqiang forced a smile: "You're right."
He walked in with heavy steps.
As always, Si Beiting acted nonchalantly. When he saw him come in, he even offered him a glass of water.
"Don't zombies not eat or drink?"
Yu Hua asked.
“That’s true.” Si Beiting sighed. “But I can’t stand you guys drawing my blood all the time. I’m not a zombie anymore, I’m a dried-up corpse.”
As Yu Hua approached to feed Si Beiting water, she whispered, "I'll finish administering the anesthetic later."
What does this mean?
Si Beiting raised his eyebrows slightly.
Yu Hua: "Director Yu is going to make his move today."
The anesthetic needle didn't hit Si Beiting's arm at all; it hit the wooden board next to him instead.
The wood pipes are made of black oiled wood, so that they are not visible from a distance.
Just as Yu Hua was about to receive his second injection, several strong superhumans pushed in a hospital gurney.
"Professor Yu."
Those people came to Yu Hua's side and soon discovered that there were no needle marks on Si Beiting's arm.
"Professor Yu?"
Seeing that Yu Hua did not answer, the group asked again.
"I......"
"Bang!"
A loud bang interrupted everyone's conversation.
"What happened? Go check it out quickly..."
"Bang!"
Another one.
Yu Hua then threw the syringe on the ground, spilling the anesthetic all over the floor.
Suddenly, the loudspeaker announced: "The City Lord's Mansion is under attack. Upon hearing this announcement, all guards are requested to assemble in the first-floor plaza!"
The men who were responsible for escorting Si Beiting left.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Yu Hua freed Si Beiting from his restraints: "General, go and rescue Professor Chu."
......
Director Yu detonated the explosives he had planted earlier in the City Lord's Mansion, attracting the attention of everyone in the base. He then announced his purpose on the electronic display screen in the central square.
"Professor Chu is in the frontier of District 11. If you want her to live, then come on."
The city lord's mansion immediately mobilized a large number of troops to the scene.
Jack stood beside the city lord, watching the armored vehicles drive out of the city. He frowned and said, "City lord, if you keep doing this, the base will be completely empty."
"It's alright."
"In case someone attacks the base or does something detrimental to you..."
The city lord turned his head and smiled faintly: "That won't happen... because I'm going to District 11 too."
