"I heard that you set off all the base's alarms in the elevator a while ago. It seems you've been studying the various buttons and mechanisms in this elevator quite a bit."
“I was just a little curious at the time.”
"Hahaha."
While they were chatting and laughing, the elevator had already reached the corresponding floor at the fastest speed.
This is the tenth floor of the building.
Experimental area.
It was the same ward on the same floor as the last time she visited.
The transparent laboratories and wards were almost full of twisted and strangely crawling zombies.
She subconsciously met the gaze of the zombies in the room on the right.
The zombie suddenly broke free from the chains on its body, lying on the glass and beating it frantically.
He was almost forcibly pulled back by the man in a white coat and mask behind him and locked on the research bed again.
Pei Xiqing also had zombie blood in her body, and could almost instantly empathize with their pain. She couldn't help but shudder. Suddenly, a casual chuckle sounded in her ears. The man's tone was full of smiles: "Little beauty, what are you looking at?"
Pei Xiqing turned around and saw a faceless, pale mask.
…
She's used to it.
I have also prepared myself mentally a long time ago.
"Look at the zombies."
"Want to try it? They're doing a consciousness separation experiment here. Simply put, they're forcibly separating the brain nerves from the body and then implanting them into a recently deceased corpse."
Pei Xiqing's expression was not good, but he did not show any fear: "What is the purpose of this experiment?"
"There is no purpose, simply to torture them." The man was wearing a mask, and one could feel the malice in his words and the coldness behind the mask.
After saying that, he added with a smile: "Do you believe it?"
"I don't believe it."
"The privileges enjoyed by the powerful in the apocalypse are even more terrifying. These are all their family members who have already developed illnesses. In order to prolong their lives, they paid for this stupid experiment to begin."
"I can imagine."
Qiu Chao took two steps back and looked at her: "You are special."
Pei Xiqing said, "I know."
"I really want to keep you in my lab forever."
“…”
Long Yan: "Do you dare?"
Qiu Chao sighed: "Come with me, my temporary laboratory is not here."
Long Yan held Pei Xiqing back and said, "Don't worry, he's just talking. He won't really do anything to you."
"good."
"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. I'll come pick you up in two hours."
"Thank you, Sister Long Yan."
As soon as she left, Pei Xiqing looked at Qiu Chao's departing back, took a deep breath, and followed her.
His laboratory was also set up temporarily, in a hidden corner at the right corner of this floor.
Qiu Chao opened the door and said, "Come in."
Pei Xiqing followed him in and found an operating table inside. On the other side was a single bed covered with a white sheet. The room was a monotonous white with no transparent glass. There were only boring white walls and a strong, pungent smell of disinfectant in the air.
Qiu Chao pulled out a chair and sat down, pouring her a glass of water. He spoke calmly, "This lab was used recently for the tragic deaths of zombies and people with special abilities. They were all willing test subjects. The bloody smell was so strong that we had to use a lot of potions to mask it. Plus, the experiments at the time were a bit shady, so this room is so special. There's no glass, so it's perfect for examining your condition now."
Pei Xiqing sat across from him, took the water, but didn't drink it. She just asked, "What aspect of my body do you want to examine?"
"It's the zombie virus in your body. I've never seen anyone maintain a constant body temperature after being exposed to a zombie virus." He wore a mask and acted frivolously outside. After closing the door of the laboratory, he even touched Pei Xiqing's temperature with professional gloves.
He held a professional thermometer between his fingertips, placed it against her skin, and then glanced at the reading.
"Your body temperature is normal, but the virus in your body is abnormal."
