"Xiao Ran, why do you want to go to the research institute?" Pan Qingbai asked, puzzled.
"That's where I rescued my brother."
"I know, but the person has already been rescued, hasn't she?" Pan Qingbai didn't dare to look Lu Qingyan in the eye. If Lu Qingyan had any anger or resentment, she could have vented it there. But going back the way she came to cause trouble for them like this probably wouldn't end well.
However, since the apocalypse, the research institute has provided convenience to many people and even developed a drug that can suppress the zombie virus, and it enjoys a high reputation among everyone in the capital base.
Lu Qingyan was merely a member of a mission team; she was no match for the research institute. In a head-on confrontation, Lu Qingyan would gain no advantage whatsoever.
Lu Qingyan looked into Pan Qingbai's eyes and asked, "Pan Qingbai, do you know who I saw at the research institute?"
Pan Qingbai suddenly had a bad feeling: "Who?"
Lu Qingyan smiled slightly: "Pan Qingbai, I saw your mother."
Boom! At that moment, Pan Qingbai felt as if he had been struck by lightning. Xiao Ran had gone there to save Zhu Jun. Zhu Jun was in the research institute. His mother clearly didn't understand research, so what was she there for?
"Xiao Ran, maybe you're mistaken. That's not how it is," Pan Qingbai weakly defended himself, though he already knew the answer in his heart.
"Didn't you already guess? If you don't believe me, we can go and see for ourselves now!"
Clinging to a last sliver of hope, Lu Qingyan and Pan Qingbai stormed into the research institute for the second time.
It was the same familiar place, but the familiar people were gone. Oh, well, not quite. They had simply revealed their true colors.
Sun Yue, Sun Zhuo, and Pan's mother had bluish skin and blood-red eyes. They were not normal people at all; instead, they looked like fully evolved advanced zombies.
“Zhu Ran, you’re really brave. I never thought you’d dare to come back,” Sun Yue said, his face looking distorted and strange.
Sun Zhuo and Pan's mother stood beside him like puppets, mirroring his posture and displaying complete submission.
"Mom!" Pan Qingbai called out. His mother turned around and glanced at him coldly, without saying a word.
Lu Qingyan saw no warmth in her eyes. She asked Sun Yue, "What did you do?"
"you guess."
Lu Qingyan cut to the chase: "Is the apocalypse related to you?"
Lu Qingyan had only made a bold guess, but Sun Yue actually admitted it openly: "Yes, this is the new world I created. It's a pity, a pity, it's a pity that not everyone can adapt to this world. They are failures, dirty waste, and should be completely eliminated."
"Are you talking about yourself?" Lu Qingyan looked him up and down. He looked almost human, but now he resembled a beast poised to pounce.
“How can they compare to me?” Sun Yue said smugly. “They are like newborn kittens and puppies, so obedient that only I can freely control them.”
"Shh!" Sun Yue laughed heartily, speaking excitedly to Lu Qingyan about the plan, as if he had already made it his goal and was giving a speech that would attract worldwide attention, and absolutely would not allow anyone to disturb him at this time.
He looked at Pan's mother and Sun Zhuo beside him with obvious disdain.
