Chapter 199 The Collar That Can't Be Removed



Although Tang Xin only interacted with Qiao An'an and the others for two or three days.

However, it was already clear that everyone in the team trusted this woman named Qiao An'an.

In order to allow Qiao An'an and the others to focus on helping with the mission, Tang Xin had no choice but to agree: "If we don't leave now, we'll be surrounded by the zombie horde. Let's get the people into the car first!"

Tang Xin finished speaking.

Li Jianguo simply picked up the sunken boat.

Yan Ling walked over to Chi Xiaoyu, who was being supported by Qiao An'an, and helped Chi Xiaoyu reset her dislocated arm. She used to practice boxing often, so treating such dislocations was a piece of cake for her. With a "crack," Chi Xiaoyu's arm stopped hurting and could move on its own.

Chi Xiaoyu: "Thank you."

Yan Ling waved his hand dismissively: "It's nothing."

Even after being lifted into the chariot, the sunken boat continued to struggle.

Zhang Tao was somewhat frightened, but under Tang Xin's orders, he immediately started the chariot and left.

Wang Xiangyang's face contorted in disgust: "This is a virus carrier, what do you want to do?"

Qiao An'an tried to explain: "His mouth is stuffed with cloth, so he can't bite anyone."

Wang Xiangyang angrily said, "That's still dangerous, especially since the collar around his neck has a tracking system. Are you trying to expose our location to the enemy?"

Seeing Wang Xiangyang speak to Qiao An'an in such a tone, Chi Xiaoyu unconsciously frowned, reached out and found the locator and camera on the black collar around Chen Zhou's neck, threw them on the ground and stomped on them: "It won't be exposed now."

Wang Xiangyang wanted to say something more, but he quickly realized that no one here would stand on his side, so he could only sit back down indignantly: "You don't even understand the principle that a wise man doesn't stand under a dangerous wall. Forget it, I won't say anything more."

The tank sped forward.

The communications department also reported: "After losing their target, the main force of zombies lost its way and began wandering on the highway. The whereabouts of the virus carrier wearing the black collar are unknown."

Although the Ministry of Communications said the whereabouts of the virus carrier wearing the black collar were unknown.

However, human physical strength has its limits. No matter how strong he is, he can't outrun a car, so from the current perspective, they are relatively safe.

After the danger was temporarily averted, Qiao An'an and the others began to study the sunken ship that was bound by iron chains. Qiao An'an said to everyone, "Just now, after I cut off the head of that virus carrier, the virus carrier spoke. If we remove the black collar from the sunken ship's neck, is it possible for him to regain his senses?"

Li Jianguo thought it was a good idea.

He reached out and pulled on the black collar.

Before the collar could be pulled off, Chen Zhou had already fainted from the pain. Blood seeped out from where the collar had been pulled off his neck.

Li Jianguo stopped what he was doing in fright: "What's going on?"

Everyone was also puzzled.

Tang Xin thought for a moment and then called her sister Tang Rui: "Sis, we caught a live virus carrier. We were just trying to pull the black collar off his neck, but he passed out before we could do it. What happened?"

When Tang Rui received Tang Xin's call, she was conducting an experiment in the lab. After putting the reagents back into the petri dish, she replied to Tang Xin, "After you left, we brought back all the virus carriers wearing black collars who died in the safe zone to the lab. Through repeated dissections, we discovered that there were tentacles made of nanomaterials inside the black collars. These tentacles penetrated into the brain through the subcutaneous tissue of the collar wearers and firmly attached themselves to their brain nerves."

Tang Xin opened the hands-free mode.

After hearing Tang Rui's explanation, everyone understood why Chen Zhou had fainted.

Wang Xiangyang added at the opportune moment: "Teacher Tang means this person is beyond saving."

Li Jianguo glared at Wang Xiangyang fiercely.

Qiao An'an then asked Tang Rui over the phone, "Is it possible to surgically separate these nanomaterial tentacles from his brain nerves?"

The human brain is far too complex, and this nanomaterial is extremely fine and strong. Let alone now, in the apocalypse, even before the apocalypse, no one would dare to perform such a dissection surgery: "No."

Qiao An'an and the others were all dejected after hearing this.

Tang Rui also heard the sigh on the other end of the phone. She wanted to help, but was powerless to do so, and could only hang up the phone awkwardly.

Tian Mingbo, the head of the research department who appeared out of nowhere, asked, "What's wrong?"

Tian Mingbo is middle-aged, slightly overweight, and balding; he's the kind of person who easily blends into a crowd. Although he's a leader, he doesn't put on any airs and is very kind and approachable.

Tian Mingbo's colleagues in the research group all like him very much.

Tang Rui also liked Tian Mingbo very much. When Tian Mingbo asked, she told him about her sister's phone call: "Does the director think this kind of surgery has a chance of success?"

Tian Mingbo shook his head: "Impossible."

After asking her question, Tang Rui remembered that Tian Mingbo had said he was going to report to the leadership, so she asked, "Why didn't the director report to the leadership?"

Tian Mingbo pondered for a moment before speaking: "It's like this, I was thinking of asking you if it's possible to not report the work report you sent me today to the leadership."

Those viruses were artificially extracted and manufactured, but their infectivity was increased based on the original virus. That's why Tang Rui stayed up all night in the laboratory to develop a new type of anti-zombie virus vaccine.

This vaccine can eliminate the virus from carriers, and the trial results are excellent. Tang Rui doesn't understand why she can't report this to her superiors: "Why?"

Tian Mingbo: "Recently, the leadership has been urging us to develop an antidote for the new zombie virus. They want to develop it today and inject everyone with it tomorrow. I think the reagent you developed is still in the preliminary research stage and has not undergone clinical trials. We don't know what side effects it will have when injected into the human body. I think we should wait until we have clinical application before informing the leadership."

Tang Rui thought Tian Mingbo made sense: "The director is very thoughtful, that's good."

Seeing that Tang Rui had agreed to his proposal, Tian Mingbo happily said goodbye to her: "Alright, you continue your research, I'm going to report to my work."

Tian Mingbo pushed open the door and almost bumped into a tall boy standing in the doorway. He frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

When Tang Rui saw Ye Jing at the door, she quickly explained, "My sister's friend asked me to take care of her for a few days."

Seeing this, Tian Mingbo said no more, patted Ye Jing's head, and left.

Tang Rui arranged for Ye Jing and the others to stay at her place, provided them with plenty of food, and even put on cartoons for the two four-year-olds. She asked, puzzled, "Did you come to see me for something?"

Ye Jing came here because Xu Ruoyu had scraped her knee and was crying so much that it was driving him crazy. He wanted to ask Tang Rui if she had any band-aids or anything like that.

Unexpectedly, they overheard Tian Mingbo and Tang Rui's conversation at the door.

Instead of answering Tang Rui's question, he asked in return, "Can your reagent really combat the new zombie virus?"

Tang Rui: "Theoretically, it's possible, but it hasn't been clinically tested..."

Ye Jing: "Could you give me a few?"
