Dawn After Darkness of Doom

Zhou Yunxi held the syringe in his hand, and while unpacking, he looked back at Sun Heng who was leaning on the table with a sullen face. When the other party raised his eyelids to look at him, he quickly turned his head, and then looked at Qi Min who was sitting on the chair and the two standing behind him.

He really felt that the atmosphere was extremely weird now, and he didn't know what was wrong with them. He obviously came here to find someone to read the information, so why was he involved in it, which made him dare not even vent his anger.

"It takes a long time to take a syringe apart. Is this the same efficiency you usually do when you do experiments?" Sun Heng, who was full of anger and had nowhere to vent his anger, became angry when he saw him. He couldn't argue with that boy. He always taught him a lesson is allowed.

Zhou Yunxi, whose thoughts drifted a little far away, was startled by his voice, his hands trembled, and he almost threw the syringe on the ground. He glanced sideways at the other party, stopped thinking about the relationship between them, and sped up his movements. Anyway, he just needs to draw blood and leave.

Tear open the sealed bag and throw it in the trash can. He put the needle tube on the tray, motioned for the boy to roll up his sleeves and took the rubber strip on the table. He turned his eyes and saw the boy's thin arm exposed to the air. He froze when his face was covered with scars.

Such marks are no longer as simple as just being scratched, but as if they had been sliced ​​into flesh and blood. There was hardly a single piece of intact skin. He raised his eyes to see the boy's plain expression, pursed his mouth and didn't dare to ask any more questions. His hands moved to wrap the rubber strip around his arm.

Only then did he think about why this person had to have his blood drawn here. It seemed that he still had to come here regularly. He wouldn’t come to them for a physical examination. There was only one thing the institute would do. , that is research.

He had smeared alcohol on the opponent's arm, took the syringe and carefully stabbed it in. Such an ordinary young man who looked young seemed to have nothing special about him, so what effect could his blood have?

When the bright red liquid filled the syringe, he pressed the needle port with medical cotton and pulled out the needle. Before he could take the next step, the syringe in his hand was snatched away, and he turned to look at the other person. .

"It's fine to just draw enough for a long time at once, and it's not too troublesome to run here every three days." Sun Heng shook the syringe in his hand, let out a cold snort, turned his head and left .

Mo Yin took a step forward with a sullen face, but his arm was grabbed by the sitting person. He endured the anger aroused by the other person, stopped, turned his head, and squatted down beside him, "Does it hurt?"

Qi Min removed the medical cotton that was pressed on his arm, and pointed out the small red dot to him, "It's like being bitten by an ant, how can it hurt, don't worry."

"I was also very distressed when I was bitten by an ant." Mo Yin wrinkled his nose at him, leaned over and kissed the small needle hole, and said angrily: "Sooner or later, I will beat that guy up. Do you dare to speak sarcastic words?"

Zhou Yunxi was stunned when he kissed him, and then looked away, with a little blush on his face. It turns out that they are in this kind of relationship, no wonder they always feel that the atmosphere between them is a little different.

Seeing that the two of them began to fall into the two-person world again, Gu Leiyun raised his eyes and shifted his gaze to him. Seeing that he didn't have any disgust for such a relationship, he said with a smile: "I'm bothering Mr. Zhou this time, for no reason. Pull you in too."

"It's okay, it'd be great if I could help, it's just a matter of little effort for me." Zhou Yunxi waved to him quickly, anyway, he is not busy at the moment, and originally wanted Sun Heng to give him some advice, but it's a pity got rejected.

After he finished his reply, he turned his head to look at the young man who was sitting, hesitated for a while before hesitantly said to them: "Um... can I ask you a question?"

"Please tell me." Gu Leiyun raised his hand and gestured to him. They had a pretty good impression of this researcher who was always in a hurry, and they didn't mind chatting with him for a few more words.

Zhou Yunxi got the agreement, but turned his gaze to Qi Min, and pursed his lips before summoning up the courage to speak to him, "If my guess is wrong, please don't be angry, are you... a living dead?"

He thought about it for a long time just now, and felt that this was the most likely reason why the other party came here. Although it seemed a bit rash to ask directly like this, he really couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart, and it was all due to the damned traits of the researcher.

Before he finished speaking, Mo Yin raised his eyes and looked over, his eyes were very cold, he felt a little regretful, just now in order to piss off that Sun Heng impulsively involved this person, let him see the clue.

"Yes."

When Gu Leiyun was about to open his mouth to change the subject, Qi Min nodded ahead of him. Almost all the researchers in City G knew what he was. If this person wanted to know, he would know sooner or later, but it was only a matter of time. It's better to be honest with yourself.

The conjecture in his heart was confirmed, Zhou Yunxi breathed a long sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his face, "This is the first time I have seen a living dead with sanity in the legend, and it is a bit different from what I imagined."

He looked at the round baby face of the other party and sighed in his heart. It looked like a harmless and well-behaved human and animal. It was completely different from what he had heard. They were all heinous and murderous monsters.

"It's a state secret that Qi Min came to the research institute to cooperate with the experiment, please don't mention it to outsiders casually." Since he already knew the matter, they had nothing to say, Gu Leiyun just didn't forget to tell him.

"I promise I won't talk nonsense, otherwise...or I'll walk and fall forever." Zhou Yunxi frowned and thought for 2 seconds, casting such a curse on himself, and scratching his head in embarrassment after he finished speaking.

Gu Leiyun also hooked his lips and smiled. It's really hard to imagine that he can do a good job of research with such a character. No wonder Sun Heng always questioned him, "Your guarantee doesn't seem to make sense, you are always falling."

"I was really careless." Zhou Yunxi hurriedly explained that he really didn't fall often, and he only fell in front of them twice recently, and he himself felt very ashamed.

Seeing the other party looking at him with a smile without saying a word, he felt a little helpless in his heart. It seemed that this image would never come back, and he didn't bother to pay attention to it anymore. He turned his eyes away from him and turned to the boy, bit his lips and said to him: "Can I...can I touch you?"

"What do you want to do?!" As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Mo Yin took a step forward to stop him, and made such a strange request in front of him. Does this guy think he is dead?

"No, I'm not, I didn't mean that..." Zhou Yunxi remembered that his lover was still standing here, saying such words seemed to cause misunderstandings, and he became a little incoherent immediately.

Qi Min didn't care, he patted the back of the person in front of him, and after he reluctantly stepped aside, he stretched out his hand to the flustered researcher. He knew that this person didn't mean any offense, but there was a strong Just curiosity.

Zhou Yunxi glanced at Mo Yin's not-so-good-looking face, and cautiously reached out his hand to hold it. The young man's palm was not soft, and several places were covered with calluses from years of grinding, but it had the same temperature as his.

"Many people say that the living dead are cruel and terrifying. Not only their hearts are cold, but even their skin is cold. It seems that they can't believe it all. You are obviously very warm." Zhou Yunxi rubbed his thumb on the back of his hand a few times, Someone let go before getting angry.

"Some living dead are indeed cruel, but not all of them. It's just that those viruses are too scary. It's better to keep a respectful distance if you encounter them outside." Gu Leiyun smiled slightly when he heard his words, at least those he knew The ones in that are not like that.

Zhou Yunxi looked down at the hand that had shaken someone, and clenched it into a fist, "That's why I want to work hard to develop the inhibitor, otherwise not only human beings, but also those living dead who harbor hearts but are treated as monsters will be the same. Very poor."

He always felt that the people who suffered in this disaster were not only the survivors, but also the living dead who were forced to become monsters, especially those who still had sanity. The gap and fear in their hearts should be even stronger.

It was the first time Qi Min heard such words from a researcher. He raised his head and looked seriously at the young man in front of him. He might be younger than himself, but he looked at problems more thoroughly than some older people. .

Because of his words, Mo Yin's impression of him was a little bit better, and he temporarily forgave him for his behavior towards his lover, and it was rare to meet someone who was not so annoying.

"It's a pity that I still don't understand a lot about the virus, and my research is always stuck at the bottleneck." Zhou Yunxi put down his hands and sighed. So far, the researchers in City G have been the only ones he can rely on.

Gu Leiyun patted him on the shoulder to comfort him, "What's the matter, Professor Li and the others are also helpless now, young people just have to be aggressive, as long as they don't give up, they will always succeed."

In the eyes of soldiers, there is no impossible task, but only the length of time required. Nothing in the world is difficult for those who set their minds on it. As long as there is a goal in mind, the difficulties encountered will always be solved.

Seeing Zhou Yunxi listening to his encouragement and nodding with a smile, Qi Min withdrew his gaze. Just as he was about to say to leave, he suddenly looked sideways towards the door as if he sensed something, his eyes dimmed.

"How……"

Mo Yin, who noticed his strangeness, lowered his head and wanted to ask, but he was grabbed by him and made a silent movement, then he raised his chin towards the door and gave him a suggestive look.

The other two people were also attracted by their series of actions. They glanced at each other and didn't speak again. Although they didn't quite understand what happened, they always felt that something was wrong.

Mo Yin received the look he gave him, lowered his eyes, moved lightly towards the door, held his breath and put his hand on the doorknob, then squinted his eyes, and slammed the door open. In the empty corridor, a No one.

He breathed a sigh of relief and leaned out, closed the door after confirming that no one was there, walked back to the people, and shook his head lightly at the person on the chair, "Could it be a passing researcher?"

"What's the matter?" Zhou Yunxi, who was holding his breath, dared to speak now, he felt that his head was full of question marks today, and he was always surprised by these people's sudden actions.

"It's okay, I got it wrong." Qi Min glanced at him and lowered his eyes, but put his hand on the arm of the person next to him and squeezed it lightly, and relaxed when the other person covered his hand to respond.

While clapping his hands, Mo Yin raised his head and looked at Gu Leiyun with a serious expression. The two nodded at the same time and then looked away from each other. There were some things that they knew, and now is not the time to discuss.
