Dawn After Darkness of Doom

A small episode did not make the three of them leave the research institute in a hurry. They still had to do what they had to do. After exchanging glances, they planned to put aside the doubts in their hearts. After all, they didn't find anything just now.

"Mr. Zhou, if you are not busy, why don't you show us in the research institute? The military department also wants to know how the progress of the inhibitor is going." It sounds a bit strange, since there is a ready-made researcher here, Gu Leiyun felt that he could use the other party as a cover.

Hearing his invitation, Zhou Yunxi glanced at the materials on the table, hesitated for a while, and then nodded, "Okay, but don't mess with the researcher's things, they will lose their temper."

Originally, he wanted to improve his research ideas in the future, and went to the laboratory for practical operations, but it was rare for him to meet a few new friends. Instead, it will stagnate.

"Please don't worry about this. We are just looking at it and won't disturb their work." Gu Leiyun nodded, and looked back at the other two people. Seeing that they both nodded and agreed, he looked back, "Then let's go."

Zhou Yunxi sorted out the materials and hugged them in his arms, and led them out of the laboratory. In fact, he has been here for so long, and he rarely walks around in the research institute. Don't leave, and most of the researchers here are like this.

Sometimes there will be the idea of ​​breaking down to the point of wanting to give up, but as soon as you think of countless people pinning their hopes on them, this emotion will be thrown away immediately and replaced by a stronger drive.

"Does Mr. Zhou often deal with those researchers from City G?" Gu Leiyun turned his head to ask when occasionally passing researchers nodded and greeted each other.

"Very little." Zhou Yunxi shook his head lightly, "It may be that those of us who have been programmed don't know much about those viruses, and they are more willing to communicate with each other, and most of our getting along with us is more formulaic."

He can understand this situation. After all, after so many years of working together to develop something, there must be a tacit understanding. It is normal to have a gap with them, but those people will answer them if they have questions.

"So you don't know what they usually do?" Gu Leiyun felt that if that person is really here, then he must keep in touch with people outside, and there will always be some seemingly unusual actions.

"Researchers basically spend all their time in the laboratory, except for eating, sleeping, and going to the toilet, and rarely waste it elsewhere." Zhou Yunxi himself usually does this, "Serious people like Professor Li , There are also many times when you don’t eat throughout the day.”

Sometimes he looks at each other with great admiration, after all, he is already in his 50s and nearly 60s, but he puts more energy into research than young people in their early 20s.

Gu Leiyun turned his head and looked at Qi Min at each other's side after hearing it. It seems that there is nothing special about what he just heard, but it's just what it sounds like. They will investigate the specific situation later.

In Qi Min's ears, he heard Zhou Yunxi explaining the purpose of each place to them, but his eyes searched around calmly. He was still thinking about the person who stood outside the door before. That kind of feeling is definitely not wrong. This is not a good thing for them.

He lowered his eyes slightly, which made him even more sure that there was a traitor in the laboratory. The direction they guessed was not wrong, but the other party was more daring than they imagined, and they would...

Again!

He stopped and looked sideways at a certain location. There was a metal door there, which seemed to be locked, but he did feel the previous aura from there, which was a very familiar aura to him.

"What's the matter?" Mo Yin, who was walking beside him, also stood still almost at the same time as he stopped. Seeing his gaze fixed on something, he also looked up and followed him, and then frowned slightly.

His questioning voice caught the attention of the other two, and they turned their gazes over. Zhou Yunxi tilted his head strangely and asked, "Why don't you leave? Is there something uncomfortable?"

Qi Min didn't take his eyes off the door, and raised his finger to point there when he heard his voice, "What is this place, can we go in and have a look?"

"This...I'm afraid it won't work." Zhou Yunxi took a look, and his expression became a little embarrassed, "This is the warehouse of the research institute, which stores a lot of reagents and important research materials. Outsiders are not allowed to enter easily, and the keys are also Several professors are in custody."

Glancing at him sideways, Qi Min stepped forward a few steps to the door, raised his hand to put it on, closed his eyes gently, opened them after a long time, and said, "Is there really no way to get in at all?"

He could feel that aura was always there, but it was more stable now than when it seemed to fluctuate before. If he didn't pay attention carefully, it might be difficult to detect it.

"I……"

"What are you doing here?"

Before Zhou Yunxi could speak to him again, displeased voices came from behind them. They looked back and saw Sun Hengzheng standing not far away with a dark face. He met their eyes and strode away. come over.

"I've done what I need to do, why haven't you left yet? What are you wandering around in the research institute for?" He swept his eyes around a few people, and then frowned, "Zhou Yunxi, are you a researcher or not a tour guide? !"

The person being taught shrank his neck, lowered his head to avoid his gaze, scratched his nose in embarrassment, and got caught for being lazy just once. Could there be anything more unlucky than this.

"Professor Sun, can we go into the warehouse and have a look?" Qi Min won't be inexplicably curious, Gu Leiyun thinks he must have discovered something, "We won't mess with the things inside."

"Captain Gu, you made such a promise last time, but what happened? Please don't make such unreasonable demands." Sun Heng curled his lips into a sneer, and cast his eyes on the person who pressed the door, " I can't take responsibility for what happened, please leave as soon as possible."

Gu Leiyun knew that he was referring to the last time the leader's daughter knocked over their experimental medicine. It was indeed their fault that time, which wasted their hard work for a long time, so they tried to avoid disturbing them afterwards, but this time it was different. There is indeed something to investigate.

"Professor Sun, please..."

"Are there any other entrances and exits to this warehouse?"

Before he had time to make further persuasion, Qi Min turned his head to ask, interrupting their conversation, and his eyes fell on the obviously impatient person.

"Of course not, this is the only door." Sun Heng frowned at him and said, "Don't try to destroy it violently. I don't think even the people in the military department will let you go like this."

Seeing that his eyes were on himself when he said this, Gu Leiyun knew who he was talking to. If there was definite evidence, they would not mind doing it, but obviously not now, so he replied Smile and nod.

"I don't have such an idea, I'm just curious." Qi Min withdrew his hand on the door, and said to him, "Since there are clear rules that you can't go in, then forget it."

He didn't insist on this matter, Sun Heng's face looked a little better, but his frown still didn't loosen, "Captain Gu, although I don't know what kind of agreement you have, but Qi Min After all, his status is special, it is best not to let him walk around at will, and take responsibility for others if not for himself."

"I understand Professor Sun's good intentions. Of course we have plans for this matter. You don't have to worry too much." To be honest, Gu Leiyun is no less prepared than him against the living dead, but it does not include these things and his experience. Companion through life and death.

"It's good to know, then you should leave as soon as possible, this is not a tourist attraction, I hope you don't disturb our work." Sun Heng gave them one last look, turned his head and left without saying anything.

Zhou Yunxi didn't dare to let out a small sigh of relief until now. Every time he faced him, he was as nervous as the head teacher when he was a student. "Professor Sun has prejudice against us young researchers. I'm afraid it will be even worse now." It’s hard to make him feel good.”

"I'm sorry, it's all because we made you angry." Gu Leiyun was also a little embarrassed to see him slung his shoulders, and they didn't want to affect others because of their own affairs.

"Don't say that, I also want to talk to you more." Zhou Yunxi quickly waved his hand, and then smiled, "Since I came here, my mind has been full of inhibitors, and it's good to let it rest today Yes, if it takes too long to operate, there may be a malfunction.”

At the end, he blinked his eyes, stretched out his hand and nodded his head, making the other party smile in good faith. He was not joking, sometimes the string is too tight, and it may indeed break.

"Have you seen any strangers in the research institute?" After the two of them finished speaking, Qi Min opened his mouth to him, "Apart from those researchers, has anyone else appeared here?"

"Other people?" Zhou Yunxi rubbed his chin and thought about it carefully, and there seemed to be no such person in his impression, "Maybe I haven't paid much attention to it, usually no one else comes except people from the military area, I have seen them recently You are the strangers."

After hearing this, Qi Min lowered his eyes and fell into deep thought. According to the situation of those researchers who came and went in a hurry and didn't even bother to look at people, it's possible that he didn't have any impression of one or two outsiders who appeared here.

"Then if there's nothing else to do, I'll leave first. Let's talk again next time. If the professor sees that I'm still with you, I'm probably really angry. I have to go back and sort out the materials." Zhou Yunxi smiled wryly. He nodded and raised the paper in his hand to them.

"Okay, I'm sorry to trouble you this time. If you have time later, we can sit together." Gu Leiyun and the others really have too many doubts in their hearts now, and they don't have much thought to read it again. Anyway, they generally know what they need to know. up.

Nodding to them, Zhou Yunxi quickly left with the information in his arms. Today, he came into contact with a living dead with flesh and blood, which made his enthusiasm for research and development of inhibitors even more intense. The place he most wants to go right now is the laboratory up.

"In this, did you find anything just now?" Gu Leiyun turned his head and asked after the others left. Although he didn't feel anything, he knew that it was obviously not a normal situation.

"Well, it's the same person as the breath at the door of the laboratory before, and Mo Yin should have noticed it." Qi Min nodded lightly. The breath was very similar to what he remembered, but it was absolutely impossible to be so weak. This is what confuses him the most.

"I discovered it, but it was because of Qi Min's reaction, otherwise I would not have discovered it." Mo Yin's expression was a little serious, even if he focused his attention later, it was still vague in his perception.

"Not long after Sun Heng came, the other party's aura disappeared, so I wondered if there were other entrances and exits." It was also because the man left that Qi Min didn't insist on going in again.

Gu Leiyun frowned and wanted to ask more carefully, but because the passing researcher stopped talking, he realized that the three of them were still standing in the corridor of the research institute, and said: "Let's go first. "
