After wearing the book, I attacked the villain boss

Chapter 143, the gradually approaching truth

Jiang Ran woke up the next evening.

The girl opened her eyes, let her thoughts go for a while, then closed her eyes again, and continued to close her eyes to rest her mind.

Si Xu came into the room with the dinner and gently put the tray on the table.

The girl with her eyes closed moved her nostrils and let out a series of protesting cries from her stomach.

"Hungry?" Si Xu sat by the window, laughing softly, "Want to eat?"

Hearing a familiar voice, Jiang Ran opened his eyes and looked at him, surprised: "Si Xu, why... are you here?"

She thought it was Chu Yuan's people who rescued her.

"By the way, we're coming." Si Xu glanced over her lap, and reached out to support her, "Get up and eat something."

What he said was calm and calm, and Jiang Ran suddenly remembered that the two met for the first time. He rescued her from the water, and when she mentioned it, he insisted that he was handy.

Not knowing what his idea of ​​a side trip was, Jiang Ran drank the porridge with his hand.

In the ear are the footsteps coming and going outside the room and the voices of different heights.

Her mind was in a state of emptiness, occasionally thinking about the Xiling base, and suddenly jumping to Qi Yao and Chu Yuan... She didn't even taste a bowl of porridge.

She didn't speak, and Si Xu didn't say anything, it was surprisingly quiet.

After finishing a bowl of porridge, he helped her lie down on the bed again.

"I have an injury on my leg, so I can't move around casually for the past two days, lest there be any root cause of the disease."

She nodded in agreement, staring at him with a pair of black eyes, and asked questions that had been entangled for a long time.

"Si Xu, Qi Yao, is she still alive?"

While in the cultivation pool, she heard the girls' shouts in the upstairs corridor and the chaotic footsteps of the zombies.

She had the worst plan in mind.

Si Xu didn't look away.

He looked at the girl's bright eyes, which were dark, and shook his head slightly.

Jiang Ran took a breath, and his eyes slowly turned red: "Dead?"

Si Xu is silent.

When he arrived, the woman had been devoured by zombies beyond recognition. He chopped off all the zombies and handed her body to Chu Yuan for disposal.

Jiang Ran raised her hand to cover her eyes and sniffed, not wanting him to see her tears.

"Jiang Ran." He sat down on the bed again, gently pulled her hand over her eyes, leaned close to her, and said softly, "You can cry, Jiang Ran."

His eyes were gentle, just like his voice, falling straight into the softest part of her heart.

Jiang Ran couldn't help lowering the corners of her mouth, her eyes turned redder.

His slender fingers touched the top of her hair, entangled a strand of black hair, and his voice became more gentle: "Jiang Ran, it's okay—everyone has the right to cry for others, and so do you."

She is your friend, you have the right to cry for her, no one will laugh at you, even in this unpredictable last days.

It's obviously something that doesn't need to be allowed, but Jiang Ran covered her face with her hands and choked up as if she finally got permission.

It was her fault, she shouldn't have brought her here, let alone left her there alone.

her fault.

……

Looking at the tomb in front of him, Pei Xiao lowered his eyes, put one hand on Chu Yuan's shoulder, and apologized softly: "I'm sorry."

It was because of his carelessness that he fell for the way of the giant python.

Qi Yao's death was his responsibility.

"It's none of your business." Chu Yuan gently rubbed the silver pendant with his fingers, and Chu Yuan shook his head upon hearing this, "Don't blame yourself."

"you……"

"Chu team." Some team members stopped far away, not daring to approach, "Professor Si asked you to go over."

Without asking anything, Chu Yuan stood up and patted the dust off his clothes: "I see."

……

Knocking on the door and entering the room, Chu Yuan stood a few steps away, looking at the person sitting on the sofa.

"Brother Seven, are you looking for me?"

"It's not me." Si Xu glanced at Jiang Ran who was leaning against the head of the bed with red eyes, "She's looking for you."

"Sister Ranran?" Knowing that the girl had just cried for her friend, Chu Yuan exhaled and softened his voice, "What's the matter?"

Jiang Ran didn't respond, but just stared at Chu Yuan with a cold look that made the man tense up unconsciously.

"Sister Ranran?"

"Team Chu." Jiang Ran raised his chin, "How does your body feel? I heard from Si Xu that your abilities have recovered?"

It turned out to be for this matter.Chu Yuan nodded: "Well, it should be that the effect of the medicine has worn off."

I thought that the medicine would completely kill the mutated virus in his body, but now it seems that it only temporarily suppressed the activity of the virus, and did not completely kill it.

It's only right that the lost powers come back.

Jiang Ran's eyes were even colder.

In the original novel, Luo Rui and the others relied on this medicine to win the battle to encircle and suppress Sixu.

At that time, it was Luo Rui who risked her life to inject the reagent into Si Xu's body, so after the battle, she won Shen Lang's approval and became Shen Lang's adopted daughter.

The reason why that battle was dangerous was that until that time, the efficacy of the reagent was still unstable—this medicine could not directly kill the mutated virus, but only temporarily suppressed them, causing the ability to weaken in a short period of time.

Presumably, Chu Yuan's ending, which was not mentioned in the novel, is also related to this potion.

Now that the potion has appeared, what will the Shen family do next?
Thinking of this, Jiang Ran looked up at Chu Yuan: "Captain Chu, you don't have any relatives at Xiling Base, right?"

Not knowing why she asked such a question, Chu Yuan replied truthfully: "No more."

His relatives had passed away four years ago, and the only person he cared about had also left him one day ago.

"That's good." Jiang Ran said, "I need you to follow Pei Xiao to the Dongchao Base. Except for Pei Xiao, don't let anyone know your identity."

"East Dynasty base?"

"Yes." Jiang Ran said, "Go to Dongchao base for me and investigate a person named Si Nian. I need to know all about her."

"Si Nian?"

"Well, probably a scholar related to genetics or genetics, or a staff member or person in charge of a laboratory. Although I have never met that person, that person is definitely not borrowing from someone unknown, but , she may have changed her name, or concealed her identity..."

Hearing Jiang Ran's broken thoughts, Chu Yuan asked, "Is it Brother Qi's relative?"

Si Nian, Si Xu, normal people's first reaction is that they are relatives, otherwise why would Jiang Ran seek her.

"I don't know." Jiang Ran said, "I'm looking for her, it has nothing to do with Si Xu, it's about my father and the virus, so you can start with Jiang Yize's information."

"Professor Jiang?" Chu Yuan glanced at Si Xu and frowned, "In other words, that person is also engaged in research related to viruses?"

"possible."

"..."

"Uh, I know it's just such a concept that makes your investigation very difficult, but I still hope you can go to the Dongchao base for me." Jiang Ran looked into Chu Yuan's eyes and said word by word, "Captain Chu, come back." When we arrive at the Xiling base, I will tell the Shen family that you are dead."

The Shen family wanted Chu Yuan's life, so she did as they wished.

"Huh?" Finally understanding the girl's plan, Chu Yuan waved his hand indifferently, "You can die as you please."

It's really casual.Unexpectedly, he would agree so easily, Jiang Ran was silent.

"About that person named Si Nian, is there anything else to explain?"

"Oh, that's right, I asked Pei Xiao, and he said he had no impression of this person at all." Jiang Ran thought, "So, if that person really stayed at the Eastern Dynasty base, maybe he would use some code name or something like that. …Such as S or N? Uh, isn’t it very secondary?”

"No." Chu Yuan twitched the corner of his mouth, "This is also a direction to start investigating."

"Well, in short, I will leave this matter to you, Team Chu." Jiang Ran put his hands together and said seriously, "I think, no accident, we will also go to the Dongchao base soon."
