End of the World Cycle

As soon as the door of the RV was closed, Shui Liqing came up and snuggled up to Xie Qin's neck like a puppy. Although Shui Limu was standing nearby, his eyes, pupils exposed, were looking at Xie Qin with a deep look, and he didn't move away at all.

Xie Qin pushed Shui Liqing, took a step back, and stood face to face with the two brothers.

"Do you still remember Qin Zhang?"

Mizutachi frowned and nodded.

"I have something important to do that requires me to stay with him, and I need to be with him just like I am with you. Do you understand?" Xie Qin didn't make it very clear, but Shui Limu was smart enough to hear it.

Sure enough, the next moment, the usually steady Shui Limu panicked, looking at Xie Qin anxiously and shaking his head.

"No! I don't understand!"

"Ho~"

"I like you guys very much, but I don't hate Qin Zhang either. I'm not a dictator. If you can accept me, I will continue to like you. If you can't accept that our relationship has come to an end, I won't treat you any differently because of this. You are still important residents of our Wuliang Base."

After saying this, Xie Qin felt a little reluctant. If for no other reason, she really liked the two brothers. But even if she didn't understand love, she knew that normal people would not accept multi-directional love.

But she couldn't hide it, at least telling the truth was a respect for herself and her brothers. In Xie Qin's view of love, love is a matter of mutual consent, and if either party hesitates, she will not choose this person.

Shui Limu reacted quickly and was only stunned for a moment. The next second, he stepped in front of Xie Qin and hugged him in his arms.

"I like you, we won't separate, and I'll be obedient." These few words clearly expressed his wishes. He liked Xie Qin and depended on Xie Qin. No matter what happened, he didn't want to separate. As long as they didn't separate, he would be obedient to do whatever Xie Qin was willing to do.

Seeing his brother so excited, Shui Liqing also panicked, and habitually hugged Xie Qin from behind, hugging her tighter than usual.

Although she was uncomfortable being squeezed in the middle, Xie Qin felt relieved as if a stone had fallen from her heart. She liked them very much, even favored them, and definitely didn't want to be separated.

With a clear attitude, Xie Qin breathed a sigh of relief and leaned against Shui Limu's chest, feeling much more at ease. The familiar mint scent filled the uneasiness of the past two days.

Fortunately, they are still willing to stay with me.

There was a knock on the door soon, and the three of them let go. Shui Limu opened the door, and Xu Nuo quickly packed up and came to find Xie Qin.

The boy's skin, which was darker than wheat, was covered with water droplets, and was somewhat blinded by the sunlight. His originally long and slightly curly black hair was casually tied behind his head.

His face looked a bit weathered, except for his eyes which curved into small crescents when he smiled, which still looked somewhat childish. The rest of his face gave people the feeling of being an older person.

Fortunately, he shaved cleanly, so he doesn’t look sloppy.

"elder sister!"

"Come on. Have you eaten yet?"

"I ate it! But sister, I want to drink Coke." Xu Nuo said with a smile.

After saying that, a large bottle of iced Coke appeared in Xie Qin's hand and was handed to Xu Nuo.

"Thank you sister!"

"By the way, why are you here?"

"This is the temporary base I built. The people inside are all the survivors we found, but most of them are ordinary people who have managed to survive. I originally wanted to bring them back and send them to the official base, but the official base is already saturated, and these people are not small, so we need to rebuild a shelter in the base. So I led people to live here temporarily."

"How long have you lived here?"

"It's been more than a month."

"More than a month? The shelter in the official base hasn't been repaired for so long?"

"The feedback I got was that there were too few people and the construction speed was too slow. I understand that the people I rescued are not useful people. The consumption is greater than their own production capacity. The authorities don't want to accept them directly, but the authorities send us a batch of food every week. We also do a good job of security, and there has been no dangerous incident so far. But..."

"But what?"

Xu Nuo looked around warily, then cautiously approached Xie Qin and whispered.

"There is something I didn't report."

"what's up?"

"There is something special about the people I saved."

"Speak carefully."

"These are the survivors I rescued from the vicinity of the zombie tides while I was killing zombies. Do you know why they survived?"

"why?"

"They are immune to the zombie virus, just like me."

“So many people, are they all immune?”

"Most of the people I rescued were basically families. Basically, one or two people in a family were immune, and then they collected supplies and survived to this day. I used to think that my mother was an exception, but I didn't expect that there were so many people like us."

"Then why didn't you report it?"

“If it could be developed, it would have been developed long ago. I know better than anyone how uncomfortable it is to be used as an experimental subject. Among the people I rescued, those who have antibodies are basically... basically women and children. On the contrary, there are no healthy men. I don’t want them to be locked up in the laboratory like my mother. I know that the authorities will not be so active in accepting these ordinary survivors. If it doesn’t work, I will build a small base for ordinary people with this place as the center.” Xu Nuo smiled and scratched his head with a pretended free and easy smile.

Xie Qin was calculating in her mind whether these people were valuable to her, and the final answer was yes. Xie Qin planned to assist the government in developing a zombie vaccine, but what if she could develop the vaccine herself?

Is this another bargaining chip to negotiate cooperation with the authorities? After all, her and Xiang Sixing's plan is to slowly blow up the entire area where humans can move.

It would be unrealistic without strong human and technical support. If she wants to cooperate with the authorities, she must show her ability to cooperate with them.

After all, the authorities are currently the only hope for human survival. She knows very well that such a risky move is definitely not the first choice for the authorities who seek stability.

Although there is a laboratory in her base, the technology is still far behind the official one. But what if she brings Xiang Sixing over?

Yes! Xiang Sixing! They have a common goal, so why not just poach Xiang Sixing's team?

"Take them to Wuliang Base." Xie Qin decided that she would keep these people. After all, the base had been upgraded and expanded and was fully capable of accommodating this group of people.

"Really? Really?"

"Yes. But. These people also need to cooperate with us in developing the vaccine."

"Vaccine? What vaccine?"

"I have the technology to analyze the original virus for the zombie virus vaccine. The genes of these people may be the key to our successful development. Of course, I will not restrict their freedom, as long as they accept the normal management of the base."

"Okay, I'll take them there. I trust my sister!" Xu Nuo believed in Xie Qin. After all, he had seen how well the people in the Wuliang Base lived.

"Let Shui Limu and Shui Liqing cooperate with you to take you there. The communication is cut off now. I will leave the information and give it to Teacher Zhou when we arrive. She will take good care of you."

"it is good."

After chatting for a while, Xie Qin took out a tablet, explained some things that needed to be done, and also divided the location for the expansion of the base's safe area. He handed it to Shui Limu.

"I will stay at the official base for a while so that my family doesn't have to worry about me. I will go back to the base by myself after I finish my business."

"Okay." Shui Limu took the tablet and nodded.

As soon as Shui Limu finished answering, Xie Qin frowned. Someone came over. None of the four people spoke. Gradually, the person approached and knocked on the door of the RV.

"Xiao Nuo. Are you in there?"

Xie Qin glanced at Xu Nuo, and the next moment Xu Nuo's already dark face became even darker. He gritted his teeth slightly, pursed his lips and nodded at Xie Qin.

"Sister, I'm going out for a while."

"Ah."

Xu Nuo opened the door and got out of the car. The moment the door opened, Xie Qin saw the woman looking in. It was the woman named Lan Xiangxiang. When she saw Xie Qin, her eyes trembled, and then Xu Nuo closed the door.
