Shen Shuyi raised her hand and wrapped it around Huo Chi’s neck, leaning gently on his shoulder, and said, “Go, I’ll wait for you to come home.”
Huo Chi looked into her eyes and said, "Well, don't be busy at home. I'll treat you to dinner when I get back."
After he left, Shen Shuyi had nothing to do, so he asked the system about some things about the base.
When Huo Chi entered the conference room, Zhou Sizhao, the main developer of the zombie virus antidote, was also present.
When everyone was present, Zhou Sizhao began to fully display his experimental data and experimental pictures, and began to explain.
"Under the influence of the gamma particle flow, the living experimental subject, the white mouse, was effectively killed by the virus cells after experiencing super strong penetration."
"But there is still a key problem. The gene splitting and recombination of the white mice is too fast. When the zombie virus loses its activity, the white mice also die, making it difficult to continue this research and development project."
"The original zombie virus has also undergone some genetic mutations. In the near future, there may be mutant zombies that are more terrifying than the zombie king..."
The research reached a deadlock and everyone was silent.
After the meeting, Huo Chi followed his father to his office.
Mr. Huo is the marshal of the Nanji Island base. He looks upright and dignified, but his heart softens when he sees his son whom he has not seen for a long time and who has gone through a disaster.
Huo Yuguang patted his shoulder and said, "You've grown stronger."
Huo Chi chuckled, "Dad, are you okay? Mom always says that you work so hard at the base that you rest very late."
"I'm fine. Don't leave this time. Stay with your mother. She's been thinking about you all day and hasn't had a good night's sleep."
"Well, I won't leave." Huo Chi sat down and talked about base affairs with Marshal Huo.
Huo Yuguang sighed, "The zombies are getting stronger and stronger. The base sends out psychics every once in a while to clear out high-level zombies, but with the appearance of the zombie king, the base has suffered heavy losses."
He looked at Huo Chi and said, "Achi, please return to the army and serve the people of Nanji Island Base."
"Then what position should I hold?" Huo Chi knew that he had no foundation in the army of this base, and that his past achievements and the identity of the marshal's son would not be enough to convince the people.
"How about being the captain of the First Army?" Huo Yuguang explained, "The previous captain died fighting against the Zombie King not long ago, and the position is now vacant."
Huo Chi said, "The First Army must have better successors. I still need a period of adjustment if I go there, so it's better to rebuild a new one."
Huo Yuguang understood what he said, "You have a better candidate."
"Yes, you know I had a few teammates. They escorted Professor Zhou back first. I think they are still willing to go on the mission with me."
Huo Yuguang nodded and said, "Okay, I will ask the Ministry of Finance to allocate funds to you, and you can recruit some new people on your own."
After talking about business, Huo Yuguang relaxed his expression and told him about family matters.
“Why don’t you bring Miss Shen home as a guest?”
Huo Chi's eyes were gentle. "She just arrived here and everything is unfamiliar to her. After she settles in, I'll bring her home for dinner. Remember to prepare a gift for her then."
Huo Yuguang snorted and laughed, "How can I be without a gift for my future daughter-in-law?"
"Dad, you approve of her before you even meet her?" Huo Chi also smiled. The father and son got along well in the past, and now, with one smile, all the strangeness after not seeing each other for many years disappeared.
"I have never met her, but I know her story. A girl who is willing to risk her own life to save you must have good character. Your mother and I have no reason to refuse."
"Dad, thank you for your understanding. I'll bring Shuyi back to visit you in a few days." Huo Chi said goodbye to his father and left the office building. He immediately contacted Tang Feng and asked him to go to their place of residence and invite them to visit the small villa.
…
The next day, Yu Qing and his group came to the house where Shen Shuyi was, and of course Ba Handong and Xiao Hao were also there.
They took the small gifts they had prepared into the house and put them away, then toured the place again.
Yu Qing sighed, "This house is really nice. We are also planning to move to a new house. Tang Feng, why don't we rent one nearby?"
Now, the members of their team still live together. Together with Ba Handong and Xiao Hao, there are six people in total. In order to facilitate missions together, they naturally rented a single-family house.
They couldn't afford to buy a house, but they had enough money, so renting a house was not a difficult task.
Tang Feng frowned, "This area is the military district family compound. We can't rent it even if we have money."
At this time, Huo Chi talked to them about forming an army, and the problem of renting a house naturally became a problem.
Brother Ba and Xiao Hao expressed their desire to join as well. They are supporters of Chen Shuyi, and wherever Chen Shuyi is, they will be there.
Huo Chi expressed his welcome, and then he went into the kitchen to prepare lunch for everyone.
Wei Hang thanked Shen Shuyi especially, saying that if it hadn't been for her, her life might have been lost last time, and then he followed her into the kitchen to help.
Shen Shuyi took Yu Qing and the others to visit the house and talked about their experiences along the way.
Yi Yu looked at the house and suggested, "Xiaoyi, how about the security of this house? How about I use my wood ability to plant some thorn vines to protect the house?"
"I'll come too. My earth thorns are really powerful!" Yu Qing also spoke enthusiastically.
Shen Shuyi certainly agreed.
Yu Qing listened to her tone and gossiped, "So...you and the boss are planning to get married?"
"It's still in preparation. I'll invite you to the wedding some other day." Shen Shuyi said generously.
Tang Feng and his friends had lunch in the small villa and then left. They worked quickly and with Huo Chi's help they quickly rented a villa opposite them and lived together as a group of six.
Shen Shuyi is concerned about the progress of the research and development of the zombie virus antidote. The news brought back by Huo Chi is not good. Zhou Sizhao's research project has reached a bottleneck and it is difficult to make any progress. Moreover, Professor Yang Zhen has passed away...
Huo Chi frowned slightly, "The top brass at the base are starting to get anxious."
Shen Shuyi said, “Brother Chi, do you remember that I am also a student of Professor Yang Zhen?”
"Of course I remember. Shuyi, what do you mean by asking this?"
"I mean, I want to participate in the research of the antidote for the zombie virus." Shen Shuyi looked determined, "Can you help me contact the base laboratory?"
Huo Chi was silent for a long time, "I can take you in, but I'm worried that you'll be under too much pressure."
“Brother Chi, for the dawn of mankind, I am willing to work hard for it, not to mention that I want to fight alongside you.” Shen Shuyi had already figured it out. Huo Chi came to the Nanji Island Security Base to return to the army to serve the organization and the people.
Of course she could go on a mission with him to kill the Zombie King, but the development of antidotes and vaccines for the zombie virus was urgent, and since she had exchanged the gold finger with the system, it could not be wasted.
Shen Shuyi took his hand and said, “Before entering the laboratory, I want to visit my uncle and aunt, okay?”
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say." Huo Chi picked her up, held her like a child, and kissed her on the forehead.
