Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 372

Chapter 372: Chapter 372: Her Aunt and Cousin

!!!

“You demons!”

Upon hearing this, Luo Hui struggled to break free from the two people restraining him from behind, wishing he could kill them right there!

Meanwhile, Han Yizhou took out a gun from his waist and, looking at Luo Hui with a smile, said, “I wonder what her reaction would be if I killed you?”

“Uncle… but he isn’t willing to be killed, right?”

Lian Ze seemed somewhat unconvinced by Han Yizhou’s words.

“It’s fine, Lian Ze. He has already signed a contract with us; he just doesn’t want to admit it,” replied Han Yizhou seriously.

“I see, then there’s no helping it,” Lian Ze said, his tone carrying a hint of regret.

The dark barrel of the gun pointed at Luo Hui, and at the moment Han Yizhou pulled the trigger without hesitation, a figure lunged towards Luo Hui!

Bang!

Luo Hui looked on in shock at Su Xiangmei, who threw herself at him and took the bullet.

She lay in front of him, opened her mouth, and with all her strength managed to say four words: “Huihui, run fast…”

Everyone present was shocked.

Han Yizhou had not expected that the woman, who only seemed to have a mild emotional reaction just a moment ago, would take a bullet for her son.

“Ah~~ what a pity,” Lian Ze remarked.

Han Yizhou then holstered his weapon, patted Lian Ze on the shoulder, and said, “It’s okay, we still have several test subjects inside. We can try again next time. As for this one…”

Han Yizhou then glanced at Luo Hui, who was still staring at Su Xiangmei’s body on the ground, when suddenly a burst of hurried footsteps echoed.

“There’s trouble, Base Leader, he…”

A man in uniform tried to report but hesitated to continue.

“Lian Jiyue? What happened to him?”

Han Yizhou narrowed his eyes and asked.

“They, someone said they saw the Base Leader turn into a zombie, carrying a little girl as he ran out of the base!”

The man blurted out the whole thing in one breath and then stepped to the side.

“My brother turned into a zombie?!”

Lian Ze looked incredulously at the man, then ran outside without looking back!

“Lian Ze!”

Seeing this, Han Yizhou also ran out after Lian Ze, then turned and ordered the people behind him, “Lock him up first!”

He was referring to Luo Hui on the ground.

“Yes!”

Four uniformed people stayed behind, while several researchers also walked out…

Luo Hui still gazed at Su Xiangmei on the ground. Was this really his sharp-tongued, miserly mother?

He had long detested this mom of his, who loved to gossip, belittle anyone who seemed better than her, her hypocritical front before others, and the way she’d make a big scene over a few cents in the streets…

Yet now, in her barely conscious state, she had taken a bullet for him?!

“Mom, I was wrong, I was wrong. I should be the one to die, I’m useless, I failed to protect you!!!”

Luo Hui lay on Su Xiangmei’s body, crying loudly.

“Crying your eyes out for what, you’ll be joining your mom soon enough,” said a uniformed person from behind, chuckling after speaking.

Hearing this, Luo Hui found unknown strength and suddenly broke free from the two holding him, swinging a punch at the man who was still laughing.

The man clutched his face and cursed, then shouted, “Hold him down, beat him to death!”

Click-clack!

The door to a nearby lab was flung open.

“Who’s there!”

The man raised his gun toward the two figures approaching.

“Oh dear, sorry fellas, I’m Ren Yingjie from the lab. I was running experiments too late today, accidentally fell asleep inside,” Ren Yingjie raised his hands in surrender, and with one hand, he pulled down his mask to show it was really him.

The people recognized Ren Yingjie as someone they’d seen before, but the thin figure behind him did not seem to be someone from their lab.

“You, take off the mask!”
