Chapter 208 He's gone already?
The inner door opened again, and Zhao Jing was wiping Song Heng's nosebleed outside. They were completely unaware of what was happening inside.
The staff members who originally belonged to the White Shield base were unconscious after being anesthetized, but they already knew what had happened the moment the door opened. Now they were all lying on the ground, their faces ashen.
Lin Xi had no time to pay attention. She took out a portable cooler and retrieved the completed vaccine and antibody samples from the laboratory, as well as some mature drugs developed by the research institute.
"Those who want to go home, come with me quickly," Lin Xi said to Song Heng's team, carrying a refrigerated box.
When they set off from Dawn Base, Guo Yanlin's team was basically going to stay at White Shield Base, while most of Song Heng's team filled out applications to return to Dawn Base after completing their multi-specific antibody research.
A few individuals who initially wanted to stay at the White Shield base changed their minds after seeing the current chaotic scene.
They looked at Lin Xi.
Everyone was instantly transported back to the time when the zombie outbreak first occurred at the Nanhua Research Institute. Lin Xi had also rushed to the front, swiftly resolved the situation, and then led everyone to escape.
After many years, this scene has come full circle again.
Everyone followed Lin Xi in a tacit manner. With more people, they brought several more refrigerated boxes and took more medicines and samples.
"Are you in a hurry? I still have things in my dorm!" someone said as they ran.
Lin Xi: "It's urgent, there's no time left, we're running for our lives!"
Some people asked, "What are you talking about? Nothing is more important than escaping!"
"That's right, we're here to do scientific research, and the most important things are vaccines and data."
When Lin Xi arrived at the entrance of the research institute, he finally spoke to Xiang Xin, who was anxious but helpless.
The two men worked together to break the insurance.
The moment the door opened, Xiang Xin rushed over to check on Lin Xi and found that only her knuckles were red, as if she had hit something hard, but she was otherwise unharmed. Only then did Xiang Xin dare to punch Lin Xi's arm.
"You scared me to death! Why didn't you open the door so I could help you?!"
Xiang Xin was indeed terrified, after all, Lu Wei had told Lin Xi that the place was extremely dangerous and should not be taken lightly. If even Brother Lu said that a place was very dangerous, then it must be very tense.
Unfortunately, Lin Xi never included her in the activities, just like at Hongwen Hospital, where she could listen to the live broadcast but couldn't join in.
Lin Xi breathed a sigh of relief and patted her shoulder: "I'm out now. We'll talk about it later, let's go quickly."
When the staff members who came out with her met Xiang Xin, they were still completely confused about the situation.
Someone said, "Vocal, Lin Xi is really, really, really a spy! Have they done something wrong?"
"Should we keep running after them? Won't we be considered accomplices?"
Despite his dizziness, Song Heng stopped them, his voice hoarse as he spoke: "Shut up! From now on, we must follow Lin Xi's orders in order to survive."
His serious expression, coupled with the unstoppable blood from his mouth and nose, made him appear somewhat bloody and ferocious, startling the team members.
This anxious and stern tone is enough to illustrate the seriousness of the matter.
Having witnessed firsthand the terrifying research projects in the internal laboratories, Song Heng already knew how formidable the White Shield Research Institute and even the White Shield Base truly were.
They were just a group of people who were working hard to do scientific research. If they had stayed at the White Shield Base, they would probably have been forced to do some experiments that went against their original intentions, and their fate would not have been any better than Peng Xinghong's.
To leave alive, they could only rely on Lin Xi and the Dawn Base army that brought them there.
As soon as he spoke, everyone stopped discussing.
The team behind Xiang Xin included some elites who had come with him from the Dawn Base, as well as a few others.
Lin Xi recognized a few of the faces; they were the informants she and Lu Wei had found hidden in the base.
Xiang Xin handed over a toolkit, then picked up the equipment and began to investigate, while still communicating with someone through the headset.
Taking advantage of the break, Lin Xi opened her toolbox, which was full of weapons, including her usual dagger, spare pills she had brought, her pocket pistol, and some portable firearms.
She equipped herself with the gear one by one.
"Brother Lu told us to go to elevator number 5, go straight to -2 floors, and a truck would pick us up."
Xiang Xin led everyone on their way, with the research institute in the middle of the group, guarded by soldiers on both sides. Lin Xi held a weapon in one hand and firmly gripped the refrigerated box containing the research results in the other.
"How is he doing?" Lin Xi asked when she had a moment.
Xiang Xin opened her mouth, somewhat surprised: "Why are you asking me? Shouldn't you know the answer already!"
Lin Xi thought to herself that she only knew the general outline, but she thought Lu Wei would tell his subordinates the specifics of how to proceed. She didn't expect that she didn't know either.
"...Where is he? Is he safe?" Lin Xi asked her companion with concern.
Xiang Xin: "Of course it's safe. I was only able to come and rescue you because he managed to get the research institute's coded instructions."
They boarded the elevator without any hindrance and went straight to the -2 floor.
Lin Xi felt things were going too smoothly; there weren't even any pursuers trying to stop them.
In the elevator, Xiang Xin leaned closer to Lin Xi: "Brother Lu is here, do you want to talk to him?"
"..." Lin Xi subconsciously took the headset.
Did you and Lin Xi get on the elevator?
Lin Xi: "Mm."
The person on the other end recognized her voice and asked again, "Are you safe?"
Regarding radiation.
Lin Xi replied simply: "Safe."
Lu Wei: "The truck with license plate number xxxxxx on the -2 level is prepared for you."
Lin Xi: "Where are you? How did you leave?"
Lu Wei: "We'll meet at the airport we came from in 2 hours."
"be safe."
"The same to you."
Lin Xi returned Xiang Xin's headset.
Xiang Xin: "That's it?"
"ah?"
"You and Brother Lu only exchanged a few words?"
Lin Xi was completely confused: "What else can I do?"
Xiang Xin: "I thought you would be very worried about Lu Ge's safety, and then you would say goodbye with reluctance."
"For example?" Lin Xi planned to tell Xiang Xin the true relationship between her and Lu Wei once they left the base.
Xiang Xin firmly believed in their relationship and excitedly said, "For example, she would say things like, 'No! I'll wait for you! I won't go anywhere without you!' 'Go away~ Don't worry about me, just go away~' 'No, I can't bear to part with you.'"
"..." Everyone else in the elevator was drawn to Xiang Xin.
Xiang Xin was still lost in her own thoughts: "'You jump! I jump!'"
Having just escaped from danger, Lin Xi was already covered in goosebumps before she could even calm down. When she looked up, she saw Xiang Xin standing there under gossipy gazes, and she instantly curled her toes in fear.
Xiang Xin seemed to hear new instructions in her earpiece, and her face showed embarrassment or even fear.
Unaware of what Lu Wei had said in the earpiece, Xiang Xin suddenly stood at attention, raised her hand, and saluted: "Yes, sir, I guarantee I will complete the mission."
