stop fighting

Ling Qian took them directly to the villa area that Lu Ze had been to last time. After entering the gate, they turned into the first building on the left.

Xiao Bai ran over and was about to go straight in, when Ling Qian coughed in a drawn-out voice from behind.

Xiao Bai turned his head to look at Ling Qian, his eyes were watery, and he flicked his tail flatteringly.

Ling Qian raised his eyebrows: "Useless Xiaobai, you know the rules."

Xiao Bai whimpered from his throat, and walked forward a few steps with his head drooping, his two front paws resting on the wall.

Lu Ze looked over intently, and saw that it was a round valve. Xiao Bai turned his paws to the left, and a stream of water sprayed out from the faucet on the wall next to him, covering Xiao Bai's body with his pocket. It's all watered down.

Even through the mask Lu Ze could smell a strong smell of disinfectant, he sniffled: "This is...?"

"Chlorine water. This is the only way to disinfect during special times." Ling Qian's eyes fell on Bai Lang: "Xiao Bai, it's fine."

As if he had been pardoned, the white wolf tightened the valve, ran wetly in front of the crowd, shook the water from his hair vigorously as a prank, turned his head and ran into the room.

Ling Qian took half a step forward, turned to look at Lu Ze: "Captain Lu, please."

Although crude, Lu Ze had to admire Ling Qian's design at this time and place: he connected two water pipes to the entrance, and covered the walls on both sides with a layer of plastic sheeting to form a simple Class I disinfection room.

After they performed the first disinfection under the water pipe, Ling Qian asked them to take off all their clothes, and Xiao Bai was already waiting for them here.After changing into the clothes Ling Qian prepared for them, they entered the living room.Eight ultraviolet light tubes are embedded on the four walls here, and the whole room is shrouded in a layer of dim purple light.

After finally coming out from the other side of the room, Lu Ze discovered that Ling Qian broke through the outer walls of the two villas, and they went straight through a few doors to another place.

Different from Ling Qian's residence, the layout of the second house looks like a laboratory. Except for the load-bearing walls, all obstacles have been removed. In the middle is a workbench made of three metal long tables, which are full Laboratory equipment, microscopes, and even a freezer against the wall.

Ling Qian led them directly through the room, unscrewed a door at the end, and said with a rare sense of relaxation in his voice: "Here we are."

Compared with Lu Ze's impression, there is no change here, and the sky light has already leaked in through the gaps in the blinds.

Ling Qian directly tied Blanche to a chair, Lu Ze glanced at him, and said hesitantly, "Should we... need to avoid it?"

Ling Qian turned his head, with a helpless smile on his face: "Captain Lu, now that you're here, you've already figured out my family background, and there's no point in hiding it. I know you have too many questions to think about. Ask me, and I will do my best to answer you. As for the previous promise to take you to see Zheng Guanxing, I will find a way to arrange it after the matter between me and this Blanche is over."

He turned his head to look at Blanche, whose head was tilted to one side, and pondered: "It is estimated that he will not wake up for more than an hour. If you are tired, you can rest first. There are two rooms upstairs that can be used. There are two rooms in the basement." food."

Lu Ze smiled: "It seems that Professor Ling has made plans to stay here for a long time."

"Preparing for a rainy day is probably my only advantage." Ling Qian said while patting Xiao Bai's head, "Take care of this person." Then he turned to Lu Ze and the others: "I'll take you to get some food."

At the end of the room is a staircase that leads up to the second floor and down to the basement.Lu Ze and Chen Xin followed Ling Qian to the lower floor.

Judging from the structure of the room, this should be a separate storage room that was reserved when the house was first built. The area is only about half of the upstairs, and it is closed on all sides except for a staircase.

There is no light source installed below, and Ling Qian only holds a flashlight in his hand.With this arc-shaped light, one can see that the walls are all covered with metal shelves from the floor to the ceiling, and different materials are placed on the shelves in different categories - all kinds of canned food, compressed biscuits, and vacuum-packed meat class, water.The other side is full of commonly used medicines, in addition to several types of common antibiotics, there are also some gauze, hemostatic agents and so on.

In contrast, Lu Ze immediately felt that the supplies in his backpack were too shabby to look at.

The same goes for the bedrooms on the second floor.Ling Qian removed all the door panels, and there was no extra furniture in the room except the bed, and the things on the bed were as simple as possible.

"I'm downstairs." Ling Qian sent them to the stairs before turning around and going down.

Chen Xin watched his back disappear at the corner of the stairs, and whispered to Lu Ze: "Captain, are we going to stay here?"

Lu Ze's eyes flickered: "Let's do this for now, there is no other place to go."

There was still some doubt in Chen Xin's gaze: "But...the Institute of Biology..."

Lu Ze raised a finger to make a silent gesture to him, and pointed to the bedroom next to him.

After entering the door, he opened his mouth with an understatement: "It's only temporary at the moment, let's figure out a way at the institute. The most important thing right now is to rest. I haven't slept soundly for a few days. It's rare to have a bed. Don't think too much about it."

As he spoke, he pressed Chen Xin to the side of the bed: "No matter what, let's rest first before we talk about anything else." Then he walked out the door.

After walking into the bedroom next door, Lu Ze's eyes quickly sank.

Ling Qian didn't believe them.Or rather, not as convinced as he appears to be.

Things have come to this point, Lu Ze has to admit that Ling Qian is a very difficult target, whether it is an opponent or a partner, he is like a slippery fish, you think you have caught him in the palm of your hand, but when you flick The tail, he immediately disappeared into the deeper pool, and it took a lot of effort to fish it out.

He took out the USB flash drive that Tang Qing gave him back then and pinched it with his fingertips, and his eyes became playful in the blink of an eye——

Tang Qing said "you can trust him", but how credible is Tang Qing herself?

From the beginning to the end, except for his identity, what Ling Qian exposed to them was what he wanted to show them. As for the deeper motivation and purpose behind it, it still seemed to be hidden in a fog.

If you connect this USB flash drive to the computer in the research institute as Tang Qing said, what will you bring back?How long can Chen Xin and Wu Zhuo's bodies last?Can they find the final solution?

Sighing silently, he leaned back on the bed and closed his eyes.

Lu Ze woke up suddenly.

This sleep was unexpectedly deep.All the rooms on the second floor are the same as the first floor, with a layer of metal shutters, and they are nailed to the wall, and the room is dark.He stood up and opened the blinds to look out, only to see that it was already dark outside.

There was silence in the whole house, and there was no movement next door. It is estimated that Chen Xin is still awake.

He didn't know when a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back, and he always felt a little sticky after getting up.With a sigh of relief, he calmed down his heartbeat, turned and walked out of the room.

That Blanche didn't know whether he hadn't woken up or was given another injection by Ling Qian. A ball of cloth was roughly stuffed into his mouth, and he leaned on the chair with his head tilted.Ling Qian was sitting on the camp bed, and Xiao Bai was lying at his feet docilely. When Lu Ze approached, he realized that the man had taken off his shoes, his feet were covered under Xiao Bai's thick fur, and his eyes were fixed on the person in front of him. The ground seemed to be in a daze.

Lu Ze coughed lightly.

Ling Qian looked up and said, "You're awake."

Lu Ze showed a somewhat relaxed smile: "It's been a long time since I had such a solid rest, thank you."

Ling Qian's eyes were also bent, and after a pause, he said, "I'm going out later."

"What happened?" Lu Ze looked over keenly.

Ling Qian shook his head and looked at Blanche: "We have to deal with him."

Lu Ze narrowed his eyes: "Have you already asked the information you want?"

Ling Qian's face was a little gloomy: "He didn't say anything. However, some of my previous conjectures have been confirmed. Jacques should not leave him here so easily. Instead of waiting for him to come to the door, Why don't I send it out first."

Lu Ze leaned against the wall with his arms folded: "I thought you would..."

Ling Qian tilted his head to look at him, and suddenly laughed: "What do you think I will kill him? In this world, whether I kill him or let him go, neither is necessarily better."

silence.

After a while, Ling Qian said as if looking for a topic: "Where are the rest of your team members?"

As soon as he asked the words, he felt a little regretful. After all, based on the current position of the two of them, no matter how he heard these words, he felt that they had ulterior motives.

Lu Ze was a little absent-minded: "I let them go."

Ling Qian didn't continue to ask, but Lu Ze seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Ling Qian: "Wu Zhuo is infected."

Ling Qian didn't seem surprised at all: "To be honest, it's a miracle that Lindsay's people can bring him out of Jacques' side intact. As long as he takes your antibiotics in time, there should be no problem in a short time There would be too many problems."

"Chen Xin took antibiotics earlier, but I still found the same symptoms as others on him." Lu Ze said heavily.

Ling Qian thought for a few seconds: "You mean the people under Boss Wei's hands?"

Lu Ze nodded.

Ling Qian frowned slightly: "Captain Lu, do you have any extra antibiotics on hand?" After asking, he seemed to realize that he was a bit abrupt, and explained: "I don't mean anything else. If the same thing really happened to Chen Xin Symptoms, then it is very likely that some ingredients in your antibiotics are the same or similar to my inhibitors, if possible, I would like to compare them."

Lu Ze shook his head: "I told you earlier that this antibiotic has not been tested in vivo. We only have one for each mission, and we will not use it unless it is absolutely necessary."

Ling Qian didn't answer, his brows still frowning.

After a while, Lu Ze slowly said, "Professor Ling, don't you wonder who developed this antibiotic at all?"

This time the absent-minded person was replaced by Ling Qian: "The world is full of talents. Although the Institute of Biology has been wiped out, it is not difficult to recruit all the survivors after gathering."

"What if I said that when we enter the old city this time, besides the routine tasks, there is one more thing to do is to find someone?" Lu Ze looked at him pointedly.

Ling Qian raised his head slowly: "What do you mean?"

"Tang Qing. Professor Ling, I don't know how much memory you have of this name."
