Just as Yu Huai approached the van and raised his hand to knock on the door, a strong smell of blood came out from the crack of the door, followed by a painful sob, which was very obvious in the dark and empty basement.

Yu Huai's expression froze, and he put his hand on the doorknob and pulled it violently.

The van was in disrepair for a long time, and the lock was not very secure, so it was forcibly pulled open with a "boom".

The movement was so loud that it attracted everyone's attention.

The middle-aged man was taken aback. Zheng Baiyu was still holding one of his arms to apply the medicine. He turned his head: "Sir? What's wrong?"

Yu Huai didn't answer him, but Ke Le patted him on the shoulder reassuringly: "Don't worry about it, my captain has a proper way of doing things."

Da Chen in the car was brought back to his senses by his shock, and looked palely at the black figure standing at the door of the car.

Yu Huai raised his submachine gun and locked his eyes on the two people in the car with precision.

In the small van, the slender young man named Da Chen was sitting slumped in front of the back seat, holding a pair of medical scissors in his hand. Blood slowly flowed from the end of the scissors onto his hand.

The blood was thicker than normal human blood, and slightly lighter in color, but not to the level of vegetative mucus, between normal and abnormal.

Da Chen grabbed the "hand" of the person on the back seat, and the medical scissors were inserted between the fingers of that "hand". Fuzzy, that bloody smell is emanating from here, mixed with a disgusting stench.

Sure enough, Da Chen's younger sister was infected.

"What are you doing?" Yu Huai's icy voice sounded, and the next moment, the muzzle of the black hole was aimed at the two people.

Suddenly, a chill rose from Da Chen's back, and his sanity returned, and he felt the scalding liquid dripping from his hand, which was so hot that it almost burned through his bone marrow.

Shocked, Da Chen suddenly threw away the scissors in his hand, and held his sister's hand, trembling all over, his pupils were a little dizzy.

There was no light in the van, and he couldn't see what his sister's hand had been cut into. He could only touch it with his hands indiscriminately, and touched a piece of ferocious, hot flesh.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Da Chen let out another painful sob from his throat, and then he threw himself on his sister, trying to block Yu Huai's view.

The young woman raised her bloody hand and gently pushed Da Chen. She barely held the corner of her lips, and her weak voice was crying: "It's okay, brother, I don't hurt."

As a semi-mutated woman, her pain perception has already become very weak.

"Sir, my sister is not infected, can you let her go?" Da Chen gritted his teeth, tears dripping down his palm, mixed with his sister's blood.

"She's already infected." Yu Huai's gun was not put down, and his tone was as flat as talking about any insignificant matter. Such a light word fell in Da Chen's ears, but it was as heavy as a death sentence for his sister .

Da Chen growled unwillingly: "But she can still speak and move, and she is still conscious! She is not a vegetable!"

"She has been infected," Yu Huai repeated. "What you said only shows that her infection process is not over yet, but you should know that the infection is irreversible until a vaccine is developed."

Hearing the words "irreversible", Da Chen's arrogance suddenly sank, but he still insisted stubbornly: "Then...then when there is a vaccine, she can still live."

Across the heavy darkness, Yu Huai and Da Chen looked at each other.

He understood Da Chen's pain, and it would be hard for anyone to lose a loved one, let alone watch his loved ones become infected in front of him and become a vegetative who only knew how to eat human flesh and blood.

Yu Huai has never experienced such a thing himself, and he can't really empathize with it, so every time he encounters such a situation, he can only show the greatest tolerance and patience to the living.

But the bottom line cannot be compromised.

Yu Huai: "How long has your sister been in this state?"

Now that it had been smashed, Da Chen simply stopped covering up, he gritted his teeth: "Five days."

five days?This coincided with what the middle-aged man said about the time when sister Da Chen started to get sick.

During these five days, the survivors stayed with an infected person with only an old medical mask as their protective equipment, and two of them were injured.

Fortunately, it was in the dark, and Da Chen didn't allow others to get close to his sister. Otherwise, when the rescue team found them, they might only find five vegetative people.

But, how could it be five days?

According to the statistics of Dawn, the entire process from infection to complete mutation of human beings takes less than eight hours. Such a long mutation process like that of sister Da Chen is really unheard of.

"Your sister was infected five days ago?!" The middle-aged man's furious voice suddenly came from behind Yu Huai, "You have been hiding it from us! Da Chen!"

Under the influence of Ke Le's wholehearted trust in Yu Huai, he was assured that there would be no problems with Yu Huai.

But when he heard that sister Da Chen was infected, the disbelief and anger in his heart instantly took over him, and he rushed to the van regardless of the wound that hadn't been bandaged.

If Yu Huai hadn't blocked the door of the car, he would have rushed into the car by now.

The two or three team members who came down surrounded the van in a well-trained manner, holding guns in their hands.

Ke Le grabbed the middle-aged man from behind: "Calm down!"

"How can I be calm! Both Xiaoqin and I were injured. My daughter is still so young and has a weak immune system. She spent five days with an infected person. The two sacrificed companions might have been infected by her too!"

The little girl was frightened by her father's sudden anger. She stood there blankly and burst into tears. Zheng Baiyu next to her was still holding a bandage in one hand and wanted to touch her head with the other to show comfort. .

But just when his fingertips were about to touch the top of her hair, Zheng Baiyu suddenly felt something, his hands froze suddenly, and then slowly retracted them.

The scene was chaotic and the environment was dark, so no one noticed his small movements.

In the carriage, Da Chen heard the middle-aged man's hysterical accusation, his face was ugly but he was powerless to refute.

Especially when he heard him mention the two sacrificed companions, the pain on his face almost overflowed.

Da Chen's voice of defense became lower and lower: "But what can I do, if I tell you the truth, you will definitely leave my sister behind, she is still so young, she has not yet become a vegetable..."

In the back seat, sister Da Chen's tears became more and more violent. She took her brother's arm and said, "Stop talking, it's all my fault, sir, you killed me, okay? It's all my fault, me, my brother, he If there is no infection, you must take him to the Dawn."

The woman's pleading eyes fell on the figure standing at the door of the car. The man stood in the center of the chaos, watching the farce without saying a word, extremely calm.

The middle-aged man naturally also heard sister Da Chen's request, and when he heard that she asked Yu Huai to kill him, he couldn't bear it for a while.

But sister Da Chen has already been infected, and death will eventually be her destination.

The middle-aged man turned his head and stopped talking.

"No, no..." Da Chen muttered, his pleading eyes also turned to Yu Huai.

Yu Huai glanced at the middle-aged man lightly: "Your wound hasn't been bandaged yet, stay away."

As soon as he reminded him, the middle-aged man remembered that his wound was still exposed, exposed to the air that might contain spores, and was dragged away by Ke Le obediently.

"..4202 In [-], that is, three years ago, the spores broke out," Yu Huai said slowly after a moment of silence, "During the past three years, from the Beilu Base to the Dawn, the scientists of the Alliance have been concentrating on researching the spore virus all the time. , It took them half a year to figure out the transmission mechanism of the spores, and a year to determine the environment for the transmission of the spores. It was not until seven months ago that a breathing mask that could completely filter the spores was produced. You have been staying in Ramon City, these, You may not know."

"Instead of pinning our hopes on a vaccine that we don't know when it will be developed, I think it is more important to cherish a healthy life. Moreover, it is already a miracle that your sister can last for five days. How long do you think she can wait?"

Da Chen's breathing seemed to be stagnant, his pale and chapped lips moved, but he couldn't speak.After a while, he looked back at his sister.

Tears flowed from the sunken eye sockets, weeping uncontrollably: "Sister..."

The young woman's face was also covered with tears. She smiled, looked at her brother tenderly, and shook her head slowly.

Yi Bian raised her right hand, and she wanted to touch her brother's face, but she only touched the cold and hard breathing mask: "Don't say I'm sorry, I'm the one who's sorry for you, and you have to be good in the future."

Da Chen held his sister's hand, until now, he finally accepted the reality.

For a moment, there was only a small sobbing sound in the air.

Yu Huai did not disturb the final farewell of the two siblings.

After an unknown period of time, Da Chen's mood gradually stabilized, and he held his sister's hand tightly: "Sir, can you stop killing my sister now, she is still conscious, I want to stay with her for a while longer."

Yu Huai agreed: "Yes, but in order to prevent infection, she must be isolated alone."

"Okay." Da Chen sighed, his voice hoarse, he put down his sister's hand and got out of the van.

As soon as he came out, Yu Huai immediately closed the car door: "Two people, come and guard."

Soon, two soldiers stood guard at the door of the car with guns on them. If there was any movement inside, they would immediately shoot the young woman to death.

Da Chen stood by the closed car window, with his forehead pressed against the glass, snuggling with his sister through the car wall.

Zheng Baiyu continued to bandage the middle-aged man, the little girl had been comforted, and Ke Le was communicating with Xiao Qin to understand their situation.

Xiao Qin was stunned by the accident just now, he subconsciously covered the wound on his shoulder, and stammered to answer Ke Le's question.

Yu Huai walked over with a gun in hand, and called Ke Le to a place a certain distance away from the crowd.

Ke Le: "Captain, just now Xiao Qin asked me when I would return to the Dawn."

Yu Huai looked in the direction of the van: "I can't go for the time being, wait for them to pass the quarantine period, so as to avoid trouble on the road."

Ke Le nodded, and then sighed: "Oh, Da Chen and his sister are really miserable, but there is nothing you can do about it. When do you think the vaccine will be made? This ghost world is really tormenting people."

Complaining will not speed up the vaccine development process, Yu Huai just said very officially: "Trust the alliance."

Believe in the league -- correct bullshit, but the only thing they can do right now.

Ke Le sighed again.

Skipping further chatter, Yu Huai talked about the business: "How do you understand the situation?"

Ke Le sternly said: "Xiao Qin said that he and the two sacrificed companions came from the north of the city. They met four other people at the People's Park near the center of the city early last month, and then they moved to the shopping mall together.

Because there are supplies here, and there is a shop selling old-fashioned electrical appliances nearby, and the telegraph was obtained from there. "

"What about after moving to the mall?"

"Afterwards, they entered the mall through the broken window of a cake shop and cleared out the vegetative people in that shop. Except for the brother and sister Chen and the little girl who were guarding in the car, the other four were injured. They were in the shop. After resting for two hours, a group of mutated vegetatives suddenly broke in. They couldn't beat them, so they had to flee. On the way, they met Xiang Qi who was also being chased by mutated vegetatives, and they dragged him and ran away to the underground garage. At night, the two infected companions mutated, and thanks to Xiang Qi's timely discovery, they were dealt with."

"I met Xiang Qi on the way from the shopping mall to the underground parking lot?" Yu Huai was thoughtful.

"Yes."

The mutated vegetative and Xiang Qi appear together... Although it makes sense, it's too coincidental.

Thinking of this, Yu Huai frowned suddenly, and he suddenly realized that he seemed to have formed some subjective prejudice against Xiang Qi.

This kind of prejudice comes from intuition, and his intuition has always been very accurate, but it has no basis and is unfair.

This is not in line with his usual style.

"Go talk again and ask Xiang Qi if he has told them about his background." Yu Huai confessed, then turned and walked towards the entrance of the parking lot.
