Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 374

Chapter 374: Chapter 374 Qiqi Disappeared

The space inside the sedan wasn’t large, with Pei Yuan and three others sitting in the back. Even though they found the seats cramped, each of them was thrilled beyond measure.

They had finally gotten out of that hellish place!

“Head to Cen Chu’s place,”

Su Jin also leaned back into her seat tiredly, heaving a sigh of relief. It wasn’t that she was physically tired, but rather a sense of exhaustion following the sudden release of tension.

The driver, Lin Xiuyuan, didn’t seem too happy.

Su Jin felt it strange; if this had been before, Lin Xiuyuan would have already been chattering non-stop, pleased with himself.

“What’s wrong?” Su Jin asked.

“Qiqi… she’s gone,”

Lin Xiuyuan said, slapping the steering wheel.

“Did she go after that blue dot?”

Lin Xiuyuan was surprised by Su Jin’s reaction—how did she know?

In fact, after hearing what those researchers had said, Su Jin had some premonitions.

The Base Leader turned into a zombie, running out of the base with a little girl in tow; the only housekeeper in the Base Leader’s home was found dead, and the extracted Z-agent was found on the scene…

Associating this with the anomalies Mao Qiqi had found on the maps over the past few days, it was easy for her to make the connection, and she hadn’t expected her guess to be correct.

But now they were in trouble.

They couldn’t leave the base until dawn.

“Dr. Pei, what is the Z-agent?” Su Jin turned her head and asked.

Although Dr. Pei was somewhat shocked that the young girl knew this name, he still answered, “It’s a pharmaceutical product extracted from the crystal cores in the zombies’ brains by the research institute.”

“And what would happen if someone were injected with or ate this pharmaceutical?” Su Jin continued.

“To my knowledge, the experimental cases that have been injected with this pharmaceutical have shown symptoms such as aphasia, unbearable headaches, and in some cases, partial zombification,”

Pei Yuan’s reply reminded Su Jin of the dual-element monkey they had encountered when they first entered City E.

“Would they attack people?”

Su Jin asked the crucial question.

“That’s not certain, they might during an outburst, but not in the same way zombies do,” Pei Yuan replied.

Su Jin nodded, Lian Jiyue must not have turned into a zombie; if he had, he would have run towards where there were more people, not out of the base. As for why he took Mao Qiqi with him, that she didn’t understand.

She hoped Qiqi wouldn’t get hurt.

Otherwise…

She would truly be to blame.

“Lin Xiuyuan, drive faster,”

Su Jin became more and more anxious.

“We’re almost there,”

Lin Xiuyuan was also anxious; he wanted to quickly check the Space again to see if Qiqi had come in, or at least to know if she was okay.

After hearing the sound of a car outside, Cen Chu, who was waiting inside, quickly opened the door.

Although it was dark in the alley, Cen Chu could still recognize that it was Su Jin and the same ice-element ability user from last time, along with four people he didn’t know. However, he guessed that these were probably the people Su Jin had asked them to help get out.

“Come in quickly,”

After everyone entered, Cen Chu looked left and right along the alley and saw that nobody had followed them.

Nie Qing was also at Cen Chu’s place; he had searched the base for Mao Qiqi but hadn’t found her and had to come back to continue waiting for Su Jin and the others.

“Girl…”

Nie Qing wanted to say something.
