“How could this be…” Xiao Fei sat down in a chair, separated from the other three by some distance. He was afraid that he would suddenly explode and hurt his teammates.

Yu Chao, Zhang Mao, and Li Bin did the same. Their expressions were a little lifeless. Obviously, they don’t understand how the government that promised not to abandon or give up would use such cold means to check.

What’s wrong with that? What if they’re in an irritated mood? Or suddenly they have an extreme behavior? In case someone is not infected at all, just to vent their emotions, will the person holding the remote control still press the remote control ruthlessly?

Yes, this method can eliminate all infected people, but can those who are killed be 100% transformed infected people? They dare not think further.

Has the government panicked to the point that they would rather kill the wrong one than let it go? So what are they now? A prisoner waiting to be sentenced?

There was a hint of coldness in Ling Liang’s eyes, “Do you remember? The news we received was five days ago, no, it should be six days ago now. Here, something must have happened six days ago.”

“Ah ah ah…” Zhang Mao held his head in pain, feeling more desperate than when encountering zombies. He never expected that, after avoiding zombies, his life would be held in the hands of the most trusted military, which is different from the deep powerlessness and sadness facing zombies.

Yu Chao clenched his fist and slammed the wall hard. Li Bin frowned.

Ling Liang turned to look at them: “Calm down, don’t make too much movement. We should only stay here for two to three hours, the infected person will have a high fever then. We can go in after we have our temperature checked again.”

Ling Liang continued, with an indifferent tone: “Don’t be stupid. Qin Lang saved your life. Whoever of you is stupid and lost your life now will wronged him, and I will never forgive them.”

“…”

The three looked at each other. They wanted to say something, but they all lowered their heads and said nothing at the end.

Ling Liang closed his eyes and leaned against the cold wall. There was no emotion on that handsome face, but under those closed eyes was still the blurred back of Qin Lang when he left.

Two long hours passed. The door to the room opened, and the late autumn sun rose completely from the horizon. It was supposed to cool, but no one felt warm.

Such a room is near the gate entrance of the base. There are not many rooms, only two. They should be in the lounge of the person who guarded the gate before. Two tents were set up on the open space outside the room, they didn’t know what they were used for. They didn’t pay attention when they first came in, and only when they came out did they see their surroundings clearly. Both rooms plus two tents are fenced. On the opposite side of the room, stood a row of soldiers in camouflage uniforms with guns.

Both Xiao Fei and Zhang Mao shrank their necks. At the same time they also thought of the terrifying scene where their bodies were pierced by bullets and blood spattered.

At this time, the woman in the white coat who took their temperature smiled and said, “Come in. There are clean clothes in the tent. You may think that it is too much to isolate you for two hours, but we also want to ensure the safety of everyone in the base. Hope you understand. Get dressed and someone will take you to the cafeteria.”

The woman’s smile was gentle and kind, but Xiao Fei and the others were all shocked. If it wasn’t for Ling Liang, they probably wouldn’t have known anything at the moment, and they would have been very grateful.

Ling Liang smiled and thanked the woman: “Thank you.”

The three of them reacted and said words of thanks carefully and gratefully.

After entering the tent, Li Bin looked around and made sure there was no surveillance equipment before quietly asking Ling Liang, “Ling Liang, how did you know it?”

Ling Liang: “Let’s go out and talk about it.”

The two girls were faster than them and were already waiting for them outside the tent. But looking at the expressions of the two girls, they were also the same as them, there is no joy in their new lease of life.

The man who showed them the way told them about the specific area of ​​the experimental area with a straight face, and repeatedly reminded them of the restricted area, which they were not allowed to enter. He did not care about the feelings of the few people.

It’s almost eight o’clock, there are many people in the cafeteria. The few people, who haven’t seen such a bustling scene for a long time, are a little dazed for a while.

After Ling Liang and the others lined up to get food, they found a secluded table and sat down.

“Liang Cheng.” Ling Liang and Tang Xiaorou said in unison.

The other four were slightly puzzled, “Liang Cheng? Who is he?”

“A person who can make and sell button bombs.” Ling Liang said without further explanation.

Tang Xiaorou glanced at Ling Liang before continuing to tell everyone: “In addition to our Tang family, Qin family, and Ling family, there is another family that invests in this experimental park. The Liang family has always had a good relationship. The Liang family belongs to a retired official and then he became a businessman. Outsiders think that the Liang family grandfather is retired from the army, but in fact he was dismissed. Because his grandson, Liang Cheng, makes and sells weapons and ammunition privately. Liang Cheng has a very high IQ and high ability. He was recently arrested. He is temporarily in K city prison. If there is no virus outbreak, he should have been brought to the capital.”

Tang Xiaorou looked around. After confirming that the environment was safe, she continued: “But now, the inspection at the entrance of the base turned out to have something he made, and it was such a cold-blooded inspection method. I have reason to believe that uncle Liang is reluctant to let his only son suffer so taking advantage of the virus outbreak and chaos, he was rescued from prison to the experimental park.”

“Liang Cheng is actually two or three years older than us. But he is very ambitious, sly and cunning. He is a very dangerous person. The base information we received before was sent six days ago. I adjusted the radio, but never received any news about the base. I suspect that it’s not that we didn’t receive it, but that the base didn’t send it again. And all of this must be related to Liang Cheng.”

“Hey, Xiaorou, I didn’t expect to hear you talking about me when you just came here.” An amusing voice suddenly appeared behind Tang Xiaorou, a pair of too pale and too perfect hands placed on her shoulders. His tone is very intimate.

Tang Xiaorou’s face turned pale in an instant. Her body was stiff, she felt as if her body was being wrapped around by an icy python. It was terrifying, and she had no power to fight back.

Everyone was shocked. When this person came. There was no one nearby.

Ling Liang took away the hand on Tang Xiaorou’s shoulder and said with a smile, “Brother Cheng, long time no see.”

Liang Cheng moved his gaze to look at him, not very interested: “It’s ALiang, ah.”

Tang Xiaorou heaved a sigh of relief, then turned back and smiled politely at the person who came: “Brother Cheng.”

“Ai!” Liang Cheng narrowed his phoenix eyes, as if he was enjoying being called out by the beauty in front of him. He looked around the group of college students, frowned slightly, nodded his head again, and finally raised his hand as if thinking of something, “I said what’s missing. What about that stupid boy from the Qin family? Why don’t I see him? Haven’t the three of you been inseparable since childhood?”

Seeing that a group of college students were silent, Liang Cheng realized something, and immediately said annoyedly: “Could it be that Qin Lang… ah, sorry. Uncle Qin and auntie must be very sad.”

Ling Liang loosened his hand on the bread in his hand and lowered his head, “Brother Cheng, are they also at the base? Is it convenient to take us to meet uncle Qin and the others?”

“Of course you can.” Liang Cheng took Lingliang’s shoulders, “Uncle Ling and uncle Tang are here. Let’s have something to eat first, then I’ll have someone take you to see your family later, and then arrange somewhere for you to stay. Oh, and a few of you, are you ALiang and Xiao Rou’s classmates? I’ll make arrangements for you too. ”

The four looked at Tang Xiaorou and Ling Liang, and all bowed their heads: “Thank you, Brother Cheng.”

Liang Cheng smiled and curved his phoenix eyes again. He moved one leg and was about to leave, but he retracted it and said in Ling Liang’s ear: “Aliang, don’t mess around under big brother’s eyes. Begood, just like how we were young. Just like that, be a good obedient kid. You understand?”

Ling Liang: “Brother Cheng, don’t worry.”

Liang Cheng smiled. After appreciating Ling Liang’s indifference and forbearance, he happily walked away.

As soon as he left, Ling Liang’s expression quickly cooled down. He looked around again and found that the entrance to the cafeteria was guarded, and there were also patrols outside. Combined with the tone of Liang Cheng, as if he was a master just now, the guess in his heart was a little heavier.

“This is already Liang Cheng’s.” After Ling Liang saw his parents, they confirmed Ling Liang’s guess.

In the room, several people were silent for a while. The Tang family’s mother looked at their daughter at this time: “Where’s Xiao Lang? Why are there only you two?”

Tang Xiaorou turned her head to look at Ling Liang. Seeing that Ling Liang’s eyes were staring at a certain part of the room, she sighed silently and told the truth: “Qin Lang led the zombies away by himself, he let us go…There were hundreds of zombies at that time. Now, we don’t know where Qin Lang is…” Or in other words, in the stomach of a zombie.

“What?!” Mother Qin, who had just arrived at the door, almost fainted immediately.

Ling Liang stood up and stretched out his hand, wanting to help her. Mother Qin, who was always radiant, and seemed to have aged more than ten years. Mother Tang helped her over and sat down, and Xiaorou handed her a few tissues.

“He went alone…You guys, why didn’t you wait for him? Why didn’t you stop him?” Mother Qin’s tears kept pouring out, “Why, why am I the only one left now, my husband, children…all gone,gone…”

Ling Liang choked, “I’m sorry, I’m useless, mom.”

The room was silent for a while, and even mother Qin’s crying stopped temporarily. She asked, “what did you call me?”

Ling Liang called out again: “Mom.”

The woman’s lips trembled. She looked at Ling Liang with complex eyes, neither responding nor scolding. They are not stupid people. What does this mean, his relationship with Qin Lang, he wants to take care of Qin Lang’s mother on Qin Lang’s behalf, so there is no need to explain more.

When Qin’s mother’s mood gradually stabilized, they began to talk about the situation of the base.

After discovering that the virus broke out in the city, the four families immediately evacuated to the unpopulated experimental park and sent someone to pick up their daughter and son at K University. However, the situation was much more serious than they had imagined. The people who were sent out were never heard back from. They were so anxious but did not dare to go out easily.

The government did send rescuers, but K city was densely populated, and the more the population, the faster it fell. The city couldn’t be saved at all. After they discovered the experimental park, they distributed all the relief supplies here, and Grandpa Liang immediately sent a message to people in K City. If they can escape, go to the experimental park, and if they cannot escape, they stay at home and wait for rescue.

A few days later, Liang Cheng, who surprised several families, actually came. And he didn’t come by himself, he brought a hundred people with him. These more than 100 people are Liang Cheng’s mercenaries. They originally planned to rob the prison. Unexpectedly, the virus broke out and the prison became a mess, so Liang Cheng escaped easily.

When Liang Cheng came, there was no scene of massacres. Not only that, he also asked his subordinates to help accept the people who came to the base. None of the victims who came in thought that Liang Cheng had bad intentions, and they all expressed their gratitude.

There is a reason why they did not object to the inspection method at the entrance of Liang Cheng’s base, because the previous inspection was not thorough enough. There have been two dangerous incidents of infected people sneaking into the base. Fortunately, Liang Cheng brought others to kill the infected one on time on both occasions, so there were no large-scale casualties, but even so, just two times, twenty or thirty people had already died.

In addition to the basic accommodation, the laboratory in the experimental park is still open. Liang Cheng has given enough preferential treatment to the researchers so that they can study the virus well and strive to produce antiviral serum. Liang Cheng, who thinks about the people in this way, they have nothing to say despite their prejudice. What’s more, his men also took away a lot of weapons.

After knowing the basic situation, Ling Liang and Tang Xiaorou went to Liang Cheng. They wanted to meet the professor in the laboratory. Liang Cheng agreed and let Tang Xiaorou go to the mechanical room the next day.

After meeting the professor, Tang Xiaorou shared their thoughts and guesses about the virus along the way.

“Your speculation is good. The radiation from the meteorite group is indeed too high in concentration within a certain range of the crash site, so it is toxic. According to our understanding, not only our country has encountered the meteorite group, but many other countries have. According to data, this time the radiation brought about by the meteorite fall has covered 80% of the earth. In addition to the X-body virus in the covered area, we call the low-concentration S-body virus that can improve the quality of the human body.”

“The S-body virus has basically existed in every human body. But whether it can play its own role depends on the individual. As you said, their potential will explode. The human body’s potential has broken through the limit and will be able to control any of the natural elements. Fire, water, wind, thunder, earth, and wood are several abilities that have been discovered in various countries, and our base now has one.”

Tang Xiaorou looked at Ling Liang, who asked, “Is it Liang Cheng?”

The professor nodded, looking a little obsessed, “He can use wind. I still remember the wind being controlled by him. It’s incredible…”

Ling Liang didn’t care about Liang Cheng, he only had one question to ask: “Professor, I want to ask. If one has this ability, but they were still bitten by a zombie, what will happen? Can one use their ability to repair themselves without being attacked by the X-body virus?”

The professor was startled, then shook his head affirmatively: “There are experiments that show that no matter how powerful the S body is, it will still be assimilated into the X body when it encounters the invasion of the X body. This is also a big problem in our current experiment…”

Ling Liang didn’t listen to what the professor said after that.

What the professor meant was that even if Qin Lang had supernatural abilities like Ling Liang, since he was bitten, he would never recover. He would still turn into a zombie, or be eaten by zombies.

Ling Liang put his hands on the railing on the third floor and looked in the direction of K City. There seemed to be something broken in those black eyes.

——I love you, but I also hate you. Hate you for leaving me alone, even if that is your only wish left.
