Chapter 68 Hatching Little Zombies 10 "You are sentenced to imprisonment for betraying your wife!!"...
068 Hatching Little Zombie 10
A group of people with guns swarmed in from outside the meeting room.
The Wise Group couldn't escape even if they wanted to, because the door was behind the people in Base No. 1. If they wanted to get through, they had to break through this group of people.
Jin Lan said in a sharp voice: "What do you want to do, Chief He? Are you crazy? Do you want to vent your anger on your lover?! I said that the wave of zombies they encountered had nothing to do with us!"
"Yeah, Chief He, aren't you confusing public and private matters?!" Others from the Wise Group also denounced.
"You just listen to the pillow talk of that pretty boy next to you?"
"We, the Wise Group, have cooperation with many bases. If you detain us, aren't you afraid that those bases will come looking for us?"
Lu Jiu's mouth twitched as he listened to them calling her "little lover", "pillow talk" and "little white face".
In fact, he was quite surprised that He Lin would suddenly attack.
Before stepping into this conference room, he clearly felt that this man had little interest in the Wise Group.
The Wise Group has a number of research projects in hand, but He Lin may not be able to use them.
Lu Jiu wanted to come along just to remind them to be careful of this group of people. At the same time, he was also a little concerned about Jin Lan.
So, now it has become like this...is it really because of him?
Lu Jiu looked around.
The man sat there with no expression on his face and didn't even change his posture.
Zhang Mu, Zhao Lushan and others acted quickly, pointing guns at the heads of the screaming people and forcing them all out of the meeting room.
Xu Lin watched the whole process without intervening, and only had an expression as if he wanted to say something but stopped.
Finally, he sighed and said, "Xiao He, don't be too radical."
He patted He Lin on the shoulder, stood up and left.
A meeting came to an abrupt end, and soon, Lu Jiu and He Lin were the only ones left in the huge conference room.
Lu Jiu pondered for a moment and asked, "Are you really venting your anger on me?"
"Not used to it?" He Lin turned his head to look at him, raised the corners of his lips, and revealed a very faint smile, "Didn't I ever let you vent your anger in the dream?"
Lu Jiu was a little choked - it was too natural for this guy to talk about his dream.
"…Yes, there are, but most of the time you still choose to let me do it."
"Once the Wise Group leaves here, it won't be easy to catch them back. They don't have a fixed residence and move between major bases all year round," He Lin said casually, "They are a group of parasitic creatures."
Lu Jiu's heart moved slightly.
"Your presence here is equivalent to the primary antidote being here for them. Rather than letting them leave and harassing them repeatedly with the same tricks, it is better to imprison them directly."
"Even if it's mosquitoes, it's annoying to let them buzz around your ears every day, isn't it?"
The man spoke gently, raising his hand and playing with the ends of his hair.
Lu Jiu understood.
Sure enough, this guy made such a temporary decision mainly out of consideration for the safety of the base.
He nodded and joked, "I really thought you were so angry about your 'little lover'."
He Lin chuckled.
"Come to think of it, you're not that confused about public and private matters—"
"If you weren't here, I would have killed them directly."
Lu Jiu stopped drinking abruptly.
He Lin said calmly, "The only way to eliminate the hidden dangers is to completely eliminate the organizations that know about the existence of the primary antidote and have the ability to control the zombie tide. But you are interested in some of them, aren't you?"
Lu Jiu opened his mouth.
"Do you want to interrogate them yourself?" He Lin asked again.
Lu Jiu felt hesitant.
After reuniting with Jin Lan in his current soul, a familiar feeling arose in his heart.
He suspected that Jin Lan was the escaped player in this world, but he was not sure when Jin Lan awakened.
It was most likely not the time when the adventurer team reunited with the wise men group - although he had turned into a zombie at that time, he seemed to still have some consciousness, and the garbled code had not yet entered his body.
Just think about it carefully, even if it is true, he still has no sense of responsibility for the task assigned to him by the quick-travel bureau, and he really doesn't care about Jin Lan's soul code.
But he was certain that the wave of zombies that the adventurer team encountered was related to the Wise Group.
They killed his teammates, there was absolutely no reason for him to let these guys go.
Lu Jiu thought for a while and said, "I'll let it go. You can investigate them carefully. There's no need to kill them. No matter if their research is useful or not, investigate it all first. Who knows if they have any other tricks similar to controlling the zombie tide?"
If it really exists, then other bases may have already obtained these technologies. This is also a hidden danger and they must take precautions before it happens.
After all those who need to be investigated have been investigated... they can then decide how to deal with this group.
"By the way, didn't they come here by car? Let's smash their car as well. They must have some information or equipment in the car!" Lu Jiu said without hesitation.
If you want to kill a pig, do it thoroughly.
Don’t blame the wise group for being unjust if they are unkind first.
Integrity is for honest people.
He Lin smiled jokingly.
"Why are you laughing? Do you think I look like a robber?"
"I think it's cute," He Lin said calmly, then changed the subject and said, "Two years ago, your captain and I participated in the same meeting, but I didn't see you at that time."
"Because I was busy that time and didn't attend," Lu Jiu leaned back in his chair, his voice lowered, "When I met the Wise Group a year ago, I had already turned into a zombie."
He slowly told him what had happened in the past year, and He Lin listened quietly.
He kept staring at Lu Jiu.
"Feeling sorry for me? Don't feel sorry for me. I'm fine now, aren't I?" Lu Jiu said calmly. "Although I can't stay in human form yet, at least I've regained consciousness and know my name. Besides, isn't the duration of my human form getting longer and longer?"
"The research data on the primary antidote should be in the hands of the captain and Brother He, oh, that is, our doctor, but I don't know whether the two of them escaped from the zombie tide..."
"They are still alive."
Lu Jiu was about to continue speaking, but was stunned when she heard He Lin's words.
He Lin said: "They contacted me two months ago, hoping to use the power of Base No. 1 to perfect the primary antidote. According to the plan, they will arrive here in three days."
Lu Jiu's eyes suddenly widened.
The captain and the others are still alive, and have already contacted He Lin? !
"——So you knew about the existence of the primary antidote before entering this conference room today?!"
"Yes," He Lin looked at him, "but I didn't know that their first test subject was you. When they mentioned you to me, they always said 'Deputy Captain' instead of your name."
"They thought you had failed to transform. When I told them about the 'Indominus Rex' in the ruins, they only said that they hoped to see you in person. The signal in the area they passed through was not stable during this period, so we were unable to send your video data over."
"So, no one has ever connected you to this."
Lu Jiu was stunned.
Is it really like this?
"Then why did you suddenly decide to take action against the Wise Group just now—"
Lu Jiu suddenly reacted.
It doesn’t matter when He Lin knew about the existence of the primary antidote.
What’s important is that the Wise Group just found out that there are still members of the adventurer team who survived, which is why He Lin changed his mind at the last minute.
"...Should I not have revealed my identity so rashly just now?" Lu Jiu's mind was confused.
"How can you guard against thieves for a thousand days? Those who should know will eventually know, and it is indeed time for them to die." The man said the most chilling words in the most gentle tone.
Lu Jiu's mind was a little confused at the moment. After thinking it over, he decided to put the matter of the Wise Group aside for the time being.
More importantly,
The captain and Brother He are still alive!
He quickly moved his chair and moved next to He Lin.
"Can you contact them? Call them, quick!"
*
With the help of He Lin's mobile phone, Lu Jiu finally met these two big brothers after a year.
The captain of the adventurer team is named Jiang Wen, a middle-aged man in his forties. After the zombie virus broke out, he lost his daughter and wife.
For a whole year, he locked his wife and daughter in the master bedroom of his home in pain and despair, and maintained the illusion that the family of three was still living a happy life.
Until one day they heard a noise coming from downstairs and jumped out of the window to their deaths. He was finally hit by the reality. He opened the door in a daze and came to the sunlight of the desolate doomsday world.
He started walking forward.
The project leader in the team is a PhD student named He Ying, who has a background in virology. He is intelligent and rational, and regards knowledge as his lover. He is a real scientific research fanatic.
The two men were on their way to Base No. 1 and had just stopped in a residential building to spend the night before setting off again.
There happened to be a fully intact signal tower nearby, and they successfully received He Lin's video call. When they saw Lu Jiu on the screen, the two grown men were so excited that their eyes turned red.
"You actually went to the ruins area? That zombie in the ruins area was you?!" Jiang Wen looked annoyed. "He Ying and I went to look for you, but we went in completely opposite directions! When did you regain consciousness, Xiao Lu?"
“It’s hard to say,” Lu Jiu didn’t know how long the random code had occupied his body, “Just assume that the antidote will take effect for a year.”
Lu Jiu's vague words did not arouse the suspicion of the two excited people. Only He Lin beside him glanced at him.
"So it looks like the primary antidote was successful!"
"But now I can only switch between zombie and human states. I can't stay in human form. Oh, and my saliva can heal wounds!"
"What?!"
"I tried it on him," Lu Jiu casually lifted up He Lin's arm, "but I'm not sure if it can heal all wounds. Anyway, I licked the wounds caused by the zombies."
He Lin looked at him with a half-smile in his eyes.
The word "lick" caused Jiang Wen and He Ying to crash for a second.
Licking?! ...Okay, okay...If I want to use saliva to treat it, I can only...spit it out, which is not very pretty...although...
They looked at He Lin.
The boss of Base No. 1 was calm and composed at this moment, and obviously there was no sign of being invaded by the zombie virus.
They looked at each other.
In other words... Lujiu can stop humans from turning into zombies?
This is incredible and shocking news.
He Ying's expression turned serious: "Jiujiu, you haven't told this to anyone except He Lin, right?"
"Of course, even he is the only one who knows my true identity."
"That's good. Don't let anyone find out about this before we get to your place. Jiujiu, you can try ordinary wounds later to see if you can heal them—"
He Ying stopped talking and looked at He Lin again.
He abruptly changed the subject.
"Well, when Brother Jiang and I get here, we'll try to see if you can heal ordinary wounds."
Lu Jiu glanced at He Lin.
He Lin also glanced towards him lightly.
Lu Jiu couldn't help laughing, and said to He Ying and Jiang Wen: "It's okay, He Lin and I will try again."
He Ying paused: "But this treatment method is always a bit..."
"It's okay," Lu Jiu said calmly, "He doesn't mind my saliva."
He Lin laughed softly.
Jiang Wen and He Ying fell silent.
Jiang Wen was a little confused, and He Ying's face changed slightly.
After the video call ended, the two stood up and prepared to leave the meeting room. He Lin asked, "Are you close to He Ying?"
"How bad can the relationship between people in the same team be?" After the call, Lu Jiu's mood was obviously much better. He put his hands around He Lin's neck and kept laughing, "What are you thinking about? It's not something nonsense, right?"
"What is considered 'trivial'?" He Lin asked, his hands in his trouser pockets, looking down at him.
Lu Jiu smiled slyly: "Of course, they are some outrageous ideas that will give me goose bumps."
He Lin turned his head and continued to look at him.
"His expression just turned like that. Was my idea an outrageous one?"
Lu Jiu's smile deepened.
"Why do you think Brother He has that expression on his face? He has always treated me as his own brother, but in his eyes, you are no more than a pig that dug up the cabbages he planted."
“…”
"Hahahaha!" Lu Jiu stood on tiptoe and kissed him, "You're pretty cute too."
He wanted to withdraw after the kiss, but the man pulled her back by the waist.
"Aren't you trying to see if ordinary wounds can be cured?" He Lin put his lips close to his and whispered, "Bite me."
Lu Jiu's eyes instantly became moist.
He put his arms around He Lin's neck again, closed his eyes, sucked the man's lips, and kissed him gently.
He Lin took a step toward him.
He took a step back.
In a few steps, they retreated to the wall, and He Lin pushed him against the wall and kissed him.
A low whisper sounded in a corner of the huge conference room.
“…It can’t be cured.”
"Try again."
"It's really impossible..."
"That's fine."
The man laughed softly, and the two people's voices completely disappeared between their lips.
*
All the members of the Wise Group were locked up in the base jail. Zhang Mu and Zhao Lushan were waiting for He Lin to come over.
It was almost time for Lu Jiu to transform, so she returned to He Lin's residence alone.
He was afraid that the zombies' bodies would stain his clothes, so he simply took off all his clothes - there was no one in the room anyway, and no one would see him wandering around naked like this.
He was only wearing a pair of slippers and walked to the second bedroom with a clattering sound.
The little dinosaur egg lay quietly in the middle of the bed. It didn't react when Lu Jiu came, and it was obviously asleep.
Lu Jiu picked it up, and after a while, the little dinosaur egg slowly stretched out its tentacles and stuck to him softly.
After coaxing his son for a while, Lu Jiu sat down on the sofa by the window and took a nap.
After killing an hour, he changed back into human form, got dressed and went out.
It's getting dark.
The lights in the base are not very bright, perhaps because they are afraid of attracting the attention of the zombies in the dark.
The air was filled with the aroma of food and rice. Residents of the base were coming and going. Some were in a hurry, as if they had important things to do, while others stopped to greet and ask if anyone had eaten.
The long-lost atmosphere of human life.
Lu Jiu strolled leisurely and came to a building in the center of the base that looked like it had administrative functions.
He noticed that in the corner of the hall, there was a door between two rooms. There were rows of computers in the room and a large screen in the front. A staff member was making a phone call at the door. When he noticed him, he immediately closed the door.
Zhao Lushan had just come out of the prison behind the base and was passing by. Seeing this, he said to the staff member, "It's okay, he's the boss' boyfriend."
The staff member was shocked.
Zhao Lushan said to Lu Jiu, "The boss asked them to monitor the Tyrannosaurus Rex. You should have known that, right? It is the special zombie. But the boss asked them to remove the drone at midnight yesterday."
Lu Jiu: "...were there so many of you observing it together before?"
"There aren't that many people, hahaha. There are just some people on duty in the monitoring room, as well as the research team and the base consultant. After all, how to arrange the daily meals of the Indominus Rex is a science!"
Zhao Lushan sighed.
Lu Jiu: “…………”
Then can endless amounts of milk be considered a "meal"? !
Lu Jiu narrowed his eyes: "Was your boss very happy when he observed the Indominus Rex?"
Zhao Lushan smiled foolishly: "Yeah, he was so happy to see the Tyrannosaurus Rex drinking milk with a distorted face!"
"hehe."
"?"
Zhao Lushan looked at Lu Jiu blankly.
Is it an illusion? This laugh sounds a bit sinister.
He used his maternal solo brain, and an idea flashed, and he said with a chuckle: "Comrade Crazy Triceratops, you shouldn't be jealous of a zombie, right? Our boss doesn't have such a special fetish."
Lu Jiu was about to laugh: "His habit has become perverted, don't you know?"
Zhao Lushan was stunned, watching Lu Jiu turn around and walk away with big strides.
Ah, is this something he could know?
*
When He Lin returned to the room, he saw Lu Jiu wearing a white bathrobe, sitting carelessly on the sofa chair by the window, with one leg bent and placed on the other, looking very wild.
It would be even better if it wasn't in zombie state.
He Lin looked at him with interest, but Lu Jiu lowered his head and played with his mobile phone - the phone that He Lin had someone send him - and judging by the sound effects, he was either playing Tetris or Connect the Dots.
Lu Jiu never raised her eyes or responded. He Lin withdrew his gaze with some regret, took off his clothes and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
After a moment, he came out in his bathrobe.
Lu Jiu stopped playing with his phone and lay down on the sofa, looking at the moonlight outside the window.
"What are you doing?" He Lin walked over and put his hand on the back of the chair. "You should be able to transform now. Why don't you go to the bed?"
"I'm going to turn back into a zombie in three hours anyway, so I might as well just sleep on the sofa." Lu Jiu said lazily.
"Go to the bed," He Lin said, "If the sheets and quilt are dirty, they are dirty. You can change them."
"But I still can't sleep now," Lu Jiu still looked out the window, and said in a troubled tone, "Can drinking some milk help me sleep?"
He Lin paused.
"But I've been drinking too much milk lately, and it's a bit greasy," Lu Jiu sighed lightly, "Hey, you said that at my age I still need to drink milk every day, and the demand is so great, is my body ageing?"
“…”
"Will the zombie virus reverse the direction of my body's development?" Lu Jiu turned his eyes, "Will you wake up one day and find a three-year-old child lying next to you?"
He Lin looked at him steadily and suddenly laughed.
He gently stroked the side of Lu Jiu's face.
"Will it?"
"How could it not happen? We already have the zombie virus, so what's impossible to happen?"
“Jiujiu,” the man said with a smile on his face, “You should know that even if you can only remain a zombie for the rest of your life, I will still have you.”
Lu Jiu stared at him.
"Even if you don't regain your sanity, as long as I know it's you, I will bring you back."
The man smiles.
"Becoming a child is much better than this. Although I can no longer touch you, I can still support you. If the end point of your aging reversal is to return to a cell, then my aging and death are similar to yours."
Lu Jiu gritted his teeth secretly.
He Lin put his thumb into his mouth, pried open his teeth, and pressed down his fangs.
Smiling, he asked, "Do you really dislike milk?"
Lu Jiu exploded: "Why don't you drink a bottle a day yourself?!"
He bit He Lin's fingers and cursed.
"Am I a child, huh? Do I still need to grow, huh?!"
"For zombies, the best nutrition is animal milk. This is the result of scientific research."
"Zombies won't starve to death, at most they'll just be a little thinner and uglier! Why are you researching this when you have nothing better to do?!"
"Jiujiu, I want to see you healthy and strong."
Want to see a zombie healthy and strong? !
What kind of psychopath is this??!
Lu Jiu cursed.
This guy has a bad taste, I just like to watch him drink milk! In the past, when I had to carry a baby in my belly, nutrition was important, so I drank Lu Jiu, but in this world, he doesn't drink shit!
"So you're angry about this?" He Lin smiled, leaned down, and picked him up by the waist. "I apologize. Starting tomorrow, I won't let milk appear in front of you. But don't be picky about food. Eat a little of everything for three meals a day, okay?"
Lu Jiu was still cursing: "Is that all? You drink for me too. You drink for as many days as I drink!"
"OK."
He Lin smiled deeply, holding him in his arms and striding towards the bed.
"Anything else you want?"
"I want beer! You know I love beer!"
"Okay, drink in moderation. I'll take you to the base warehouse tomorrow. Anything else?"
"You sent me beer and dried fish in the beginning just to bait me. You knew I would think if I finished drinking today's milk, I would have beer and dried fish tomorrow. You tricked me into drinking bottle after bottle. If you dare to do this again, you're done!"
"Okay, it's my fault."
"If you dare to do this again, I'll sentence you to prison without a wife!!"
"What a severe punishment."
Lu Jiu was put on the bed.
He Lin supported himself above him and asked with a smile: "What about now?"
Lu Jiu was still in zombie state, staring at this guy with his two big round eyes.
He snorted and rolled over to his side.
"Now, I love to be in zombie state. I will change back to zombie state when the psychological trauma you caused me is gone."
He said lightly.
"Also, you'd better not do anything heavy. I'm very fragile. If I'm not careful, I might get frightened and become impotent. I'll never be able to get hard again and that's it."
“…”
He Lin stood up straight, narrowed his eyes, and laughed with an indistinct emotion.
