Chapter 91 Dangerous Personnel Have Been Taken into Control
"Coach Lin, why are there gunshots over there?"
"Hey. Are you still there?"
"Something feels off. What happened?"
Are you still saving the world...?
After a brief period of tinnitus, Lin Xi was brought back to her senses by the shouts coming from her earpiece.
Once a person regains consciousness, the pain spreads rapidly.
She collapsed to the ground and saw blood gushing from her arm.
Lu Wei, who was not far away, swayed in her eyes, but she couldn't see his eyes clearly.
There must be some surprise.
Countless men in hats and armed men in military green rushed into the hospital, and Lu Wei was among them.
Before leaving, Lu Wei pointed in Lin Xi's direction and ordered, "Stretcher, take her to the hospital."
When Lin Xi was lifted onto the stretcher, she was already losing consciousness.
But she seemed to hear the police officer explaining the situation to Lu: "Captain Lu, the dangerous person has been apprehended."
Hearing this, Lin Xi felt relieved.
"The dangerous individual has been apprehended." Regardless of whether she had killed all the zombies, the intervention of the police and military ensures that nothing unusual is amiss.
Before she fainted, she replied to Xiang Xin: "The rescue is complete..."
But the sound was too faint, and it was unclear whether Xiang Xin on the other end of the earpiece could hear it clearly.
-
Lin Xi opened her eyes and looked at the white ceiling, where the IV drip seemed to be swaying.
Half of her body was numb and painful. Lin Xi glanced at her left hand, which was wrapped in bandages, and knew that she had probably undergone surgery to remove the bullet.
It took a while for my consciousness to return.
The image of the person guarding the bed became clearer. He seemed to have noticed Lin Xi's movements and got up to check on her.
It is Lu Wei.
I happen to want to see him.
Lin Xi asked, "Did it succeed?"
Although brief, Lu Wei must have known what she was asking.
Lu Wei's gaze seemed to shift slightly, and he responded softly, "Mm."
Lin Xi was somewhat surprised, but even more overjoyed—
She succeeded.
Success was both expected and unexpected.
She had practiced Sanda (Chinese kickboxing) for six years to achieve this success, and spent the entire morning personally defeating the zombies, controlling the spread of the virus at its source.
Great, this is the best outcome she had envisioned; the zombie outbreak will not occur.
What was unexpected was that she succeeded in this matter all by herself, without any deviation, and it went very smoothly.
She even managed to resolve everything before Lu Wei arrived.
But in any case, she achieved her goal.
Despite the pain and numbness dominating her body, Lin Xi still managed a slight twitch at the corner of her mouth, even having the energy to joke: "It would have been even better if your shot hadn't missed."
I can now celebrate strangling the end times in good health.
Lu Wei froze, seemingly feeling no joy whatsoever, his Adam's apple bobbing noticeably on his long neck.
He said calmly, "I didn't fire that shot."
Lin Xi pictured two figures pointing guns at her; if it wasn't Lu Wei who fired, then it was...
She glanced out of the corner of her eye and saw several soldiers entering the ward.
One of them walked with his head held high and a rather smug air, looking down at Lin Xi with eyes full of righteous indignation.
Yang Yicheng.
At that moment, Lin Xi recalled the fear of being dominated by those eyes.
Why is he here?
Lin Xi broke out in a cold sweat, and soon she realized that it wasn't just her back that was cold; her right hand was also hard and cold.
There was a pair of shackles that locked her right hand to the bed railing.
Lin Xi suddenly looked at Lu Wei, but he was facing Yang Yicheng.
When Yang Yicheng wasn't staring at Lin Xi, he didn't look so scary. When Lin Xi first met him, she was impressed by his build, which was similar to Lu Wei's. However, compared to Lu Wei's perpetually expressionless face, Yang Yicheng seemed more sunny and righteous.
If it weren't for those two shots.
Yang Yicheng said to Lu Wei, "Captain Lu, the hospital has been cleared. There are no accomplices."
Lu Wei: "Okay, I understand."
Yang Yicheng: "Your Deputy Captain Xu went to find her accomplice."
The two didn't seem to know each other well; after exchanging a few words, Yang Yicheng left.
With Yang Yicheng gone, Lin Xi felt less stressed and couldn't help but ask, "What accomplice? And why are you handcuffing me here? Wasn't I the one who killed zombies and prevented the disaster?"
Even if he's not a savior, he shouldn't be handcuffed.
Lin Xi belatedly realized that Lu Wei was acting very strangely today.
Although she and Lu Wei hadn't known each other for very long and weren't exactly friends, Lu Wei was always decisive and ruthless in the few times he appeared in public.
He seemed to have something he couldn't say today.
Lu Wei took out his phone, downloaded the app "Big Eyes" on the spot, and showed Lin Xi the top trending topic on "Big Eyes":
#Violence at Hongwen Hospital Exposed
The first official news report stated in its summary: "On May 20, 2025, a violent assault occurred at Hongwen Hospital. A woman attacked medical staff and passersby with a knife, and was eventually subdued by the military and police. It is rumored that the woman was originally a cleaning worker at Hongwen Hospital..."
Lin Xi's eyes were seeing stars.
She thought that even if Hongwen Hospital became a trending topic for "violent assault incident", the perpetrator of the violence should be the zombies biting and scratching people, not herself who killed the zombies.
Lin Xi couldn't help but want to raise her hand to swipe down the screen to see the information below, but unfortunately the anesthesia in her left hand hadn't worn off and her right hand was handcuffed, so she couldn't lift either hand.
Lu didn't notice her movement and unconsciously swiped down the screen.
Lin Xi saw the videos and screenshots posted by netizens below. They were all taken by people at Hongwen Hospital at the time using their mobile phones. The images were not very clear, and the people in the images were holding daggers with both hands and moving very quickly, so much so that their faces were not clearly visible.
The perpetrator of the “violent assault” is Lin Xi.
Lin Xi was incredulous, and opened her mouth but couldn't utter a word for a long time.
There are still people spreading rumors that a few people were injured or killed, with varying numbers and conflicting information.
Lin Xi asked, "Are they all dead? How many exactly?"
At the time, she was only focused on observing the mutated zombies and the infected people who had been scratched, and didn't count them carefully.
"Nine. All 'dead'."
Lu Wei turned his face away: "You are at Hongwen Hospital right now."
So the zombie outbreak did not continue at Hongwen Hospital.
Lu Wei added, "If you hadn't killed them all, things would have been better for you. Leaving a few real infected and zombies alive would have proven that you weren't attacking people."
Lin Xi's mind went completely blank: "..."
Lu Wei turned around and looked at her seriously: "Unfortunately, your movement skills are too good. Every shot is a precise headshot. Now there are 9 'corpses'."
That sounds like a pity, but it also sounds like a compliment.
