193, Chapter 193(1/2)
Several people worked together to eliminate the two mutated zombies and found two medicine boxes in the room.
There was exactly the medicine they were looking for in the medicine box.
In this way, the task can be considered successfully completed.
Jiang Mu said: "It's a good thing you didn't come with me. Otherwise, if I had come in by myself, I don't know if I would have come out alive. These two zombies are so dangerous."
This sentence does not mention Qi Xuan.
But everyone knows that Qi Xuan asked Jiang Mu to come here.
So, Lin Gao naturally mentioned Qi Xuan, "Didn't Qi Xuan say there is no danger here? Didn't she go upstairs to see it?"
In the original plot, this is what Qi Xuan said when she shied away from responsibility. She said she didn't go upstairs and didn't know there would be zombies up there, and no one suspected it.
It was precisely because of this that Jiang Mu took her things.
Chu Jiaran said thoughtfully: "But if this thing belongs to Qi Xuan, it means that she has been here."
"This..." Lin Gao thought about it over and over, but couldn't figure it out. He tried to explain to Qi Xuan, but something seemed to be wrong. He hesitated and said, "But is it possible that when she comes, these two zombies are not at the same time?"
Not here."
"impossible."
It was Luo Jue who spoke, "All the signs in the room indicate that these two zombies have been locked here for a long time, at least a month. They should have been tied up, and someone fed them regularly. Look at this photo."
Everyone followed Luo Jue's finger and looked at a photo frame on the bedside table.
In the photo frame was a photo of a happy family of three. The three of them were wearing parent-child clothes. The clothes happened to be the same as the two zombies they killed.
This means that the two zombies just now are the mother and son in the photo.
The other person in the photo should be the person feeding them.
"Judging from the dust in the room, no one has lived here for a long time. This also proves that these two zombies have been locked up here for a long time, but we didn't come here until half a month ago."
If you say this, there is no reason to give Qi Xuan any excuse.
Unless this thing is not hers.
Jiang Mu said: "How about we go back first? I have nothing to do anyway. Don't blame Qi Xuan. She probably just wants to help me and let me prove myself."
Chu Jiaran rolled his eyes, "Should I call you stupid or stupid? What do you have to prove yourself? Do you want to prove that you are a weakling and get bitten to death by zombies?"
Jiang Mu looked at him in surprise.
Originally Jiang Mu didn't say that, and he didn't say it so clearly, but now Qi Xuan said it like this.
It seemed that Qi Xuan deliberately harmed Jiang Mu, while Jiang Mu acted like a naive fool who helped count the money after being sold.
Even Lin Gao could see it.
Luo Jue frowned, as if he thought of some details that he had ignored before.
A few people returned to the base with their own thoughts, but the others had already returned.
A transport truck was parked at the door, and someone was loading supplies into the truck.
Seeing Luo Jue and the others, a girl said excitedly: "You are back too. Qi Xuan was a little earlier than you and brought back a lot of things. Look, there are quilts and some fabrics."
The man next to him echoed: "Yes, there is also a little flour and seeds, both are good things."
Lin Gao nodded and said "very good", Luo Jue showed no expression, and Chu Jiaran was tactful. The two of them didn't seem to be very happy about finding the supplies.
Only Jiang Mu seemed to be heartless and said happily: "Wow, there are so many, it's amazing."
As long as Jiang Mu responded to him, he could only talk to Jiang Mu.
"What about you? Did you find anything?"
Jiang Mu said: "We only found a little food, but we got the medicine back."
When the other party heard this, he didn't care. He thought, I'll just take you with me anyway, as long as nothing happens.
The girl's eyes were always on Luo Jue, not looking at Jiang Mu at all. Seeing Luo Jue's sullen and unhappy look, she thought it was because he didn't bring back many things, so she took the initiative to comfort her: "It doesn't matter, as long as everyone comes back safely, go in
Well, everyone has worked hard today, and when Qi Xuan came back, he even said that he would have an extra meal in the evening to celebrate."
Hearing the word "celebration", Jiang Mu's smile deepened.
Yes, don't you want to celebrate?
Luo Jue also heard it, and for some reason, his expression became more solemn.
Chu Jiaran seemed to feel something was wrong, but he didn't think too much about it. As for Lin Gao, he forgot what happened just now when he arrived at the base.
Several people entered the base and met other team members. Like the two people outside, they had a chat with Jiang Mu and others. They were not surprised to learn that they only found a few things. Qi Xuan found a lot of supplies anyway.
That's it. Overall, today is a good day.
At this time, Qi Xuan came down from upstairs.
After she saw Jiang Mu, who was unharmed, her expression changed, her eyes were a little sharp, and she stayed on Jiang Mu for several seconds.
Jiang Mu raised his head and looked at her.
Then he said with a smile: "Qi Xuan, we found the medicine, is this it?"
Qi Xuan didn't have time to change her expression, as if she had been caught red-handed by Jiang Mu, and was a little embarrassed. However, seeing Jiang Mu's innocent and romantic look on her face, she felt relieved, but she felt irritable at the same time.
She hated seeing Jiang Mu always smiling so happily and carefree.
In Qi Xuan's eyes, if Jiang Mu hadn't relied on men, how could she have survived until now? Everything she got was because of Luo Jue.
As long as there is no Luo Jue, Jiang Mu may not be able to survive a day after leaving here.
Qi Xuan pursed her lips and said, "Well, did you go looking for it together?"
Jiang Mu gave her another smile, "Yes, everyone went with me."
Qi Xuan smiled coldly in her heart and thought, it is indeed like this, this waste.
But she couldn't blame Jiang Mu in front of everyone, so she showed a concerned expression, "Really, did you guys have nothing wrong along the way?"
Lin Gao said: "It's okay, it's very good."
"Originally, I thought Jiang Mu would complete the task on his own, and I would be able to leave the matter to you with confidence in the future, but this time I am with everyone. Before setting off, I saw that you agreed very readily, so I thought you could do it.
"Qi Xuan said while observing the expressions of others. As expected, most of them looked like they had known this would happen.
Qi Xuan continued: "But it doesn't matter. It's good that everyone is doing well this time. But if you can't do it next time, just tell me in advance and I won't arrange for you to go. Don't feel uncomfortable.
I'm sorry, otherwise everyone would have to accompany you, which would affect other people's tasks."
This is implying that as long as Jiang Mu doesn't implicate others, everything will be fine. What more can be expected from her? On the surface, she is very polite and just asks Jiang Mu to talk to her. In fact, she is mocking Jiang Mu for not being able to do more.
To show off his strength, he would ask others for help when the time came, implying that Jiang Mu was a troublemaker.
After saying this, everyone looked at Jiang Mu with even more sarcastic looks.
Even Lin Gao noticed it. If it were in the past, he might look down on Jiang Mu like everyone else.
But today, he went with Jiang Mu and knew what happened.
Jiang Mu obviously wanted to get the medicine by herself, but she agreed because they insisted on accompanying her.
Why did Qi Xuan tell her that she was going back on her word, agreeing even if she couldn't do it, and affecting her teammates' tasks?
In the past, Lin Gao always felt that Qi Xuan was a very capable and fair woman. She had repeatedly led everyone to find a lot of supplies and avoided many crises. Everyone admired her because she was able to convince everyone even though she was a woman.
But this time, Lin Gao suddenly felt that Qi Xuan was different from what he imagined.
Then think of the zombies you encountered on the second floor of the drugstore and the hand circles on the ground.
Lin Gao's expression turned ugly. He was about to speak for Jiang Mu, but Chu Jiaran got there first.
"Hey, Qi Xuan, let me tell you, why didn't I notice before... you are so good at beeping and talking a lot, do you know what happened at that time?"
Chu Jiaran was known to have a bad temper. He was scolding Jiang Mu many times before. One time, he had a quarrel with a teammate because he couldn't stand what he was doing. The two of them were at the base.
There was a big fight, and in the end Chu Jiaran won the battle, but the other one was not popular enough and left the base.
Later, when everyone was out on a mission, they saw that the man had turned into a zombie.
He said that Jiang Mu was merciless and would not be polite when talking about Qi Xuan.
Qi Xuan's expression changed immediately after hearing his words.
"Chu Jiaran, what do you mean?"
Chu Jiaran snorted coldly, "You weren't even here, so you just said a lot about Jiang Mu. Do you take yourself too seriously? The base doesn't seem to be yours. What did you arrange for Jiang Mu to do? She even asked her
No one can help me anymore? I have to complete this stupid task alone to prove it to you? Who are you? If I remember correctly, you are not the founder of the base."
Chu Jiaran's words were unpleasant, but after everyone listened, they felt that there was nothing wrong with what he said.
Qi Xuan has been giving orders in the base, but they were the ones who came earlier. According to the old man from the past, it seems that the base was originally established by Luo Jue and Jiang Mu.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that after they arrived, they were all controlled by Qi Xuan and their direction was led astray.
Jiang Mu is one of the founders, so why does it make sense for Qi Xuan to ask Jiang Mu to do tasks to prove himself?
Luo Jue, who had been silent all this time, looked at Qi Xuan.
