After Ying Xian and Shu Kongdu got ready, they returned to the office building. The group of people asked for so many supplies, so they probably didn't have much left.

The glass door on the first floor was clearly equipped with a trap this time. Ying Xian circled around the office building and led Shu Kongdu up the stairs from the underground parking lot to the first floor.

There was no one on the first floor, so Ying Xian slowed down his breathing and steps and walked from the fire escape to the second floor.

There was indeed someone talking on the second floor, but there was a fire door across the floor. Ying Xian and Shu Kongdu could only carefully put their ears to the door to listen for the sound.

"If you ask me, just kill him. Why keep him alive?" The voice of the man who spoke was full of anger. "When those two brats come to ransom people, why don't they just give them back a corpse?"

The middle-aged man's voice came next, "I know how to kill every day. These three people are all from the base. If three people dare to come out, they are either capable or have backgrounds. I will kill you directly without fear of anyone coming to take revenge on you."

?”

"It's not that exaggerated... Damn it, what is that outside!"

There was sudden chaos inside the door, the sound of breaking glass and wailing could be heard, but Chu Zheng's voice was not heard.

Just as Ying Xian was about to kick in the door, he heard gunfire, and then a bullet hit the fire door, causing a huge tremor.

After the noise outside subsided a little, Ying Xian opened the fire door and took advantage of the chaos to look for Chu Zheng's whereabouts on the second floor.

But she searched every cubicle and small room, even the toilet, but she didn't see Chu Zheng.

That group of people never imagined until their death how someone could break in directly through the glass window, take away the hostages they kidnapped, and just use a gun with unknown bullets to directly kill everyone in the team.

The superhuman was knocked unconscious and taken away.

There were only corpses left in the room. Ying Xian turned over each corpse and looked at it, but Chu Zheng was not seen.

The memory of spending time with Chu Zheng in the past three years and the last month came back, and Ying Xian could no longer hold back, and sat helplessly on the ground crying.

"Looking on the bright side, Chu Zheng is not among these corpses, which at least proves that she is still alive with a high probability."

As soon as these words came out, Ying Xian's rationality returned. He recalled the brief confrontation on the first floor and found that apart from Chu Zheng, there were no superhuman beings seen on the first floor except Chu Zheng.

Ying Xian stood up from the ground and was about to leave when he saw a black suitcase placed in the distance.

She walked over to open it with some confusion, but found a stainless steel padlock hanging on the suitcase.

Ying Xian's thoughts moved slightly, and he spent most of his fire power to ignite a blue ultra-high temperature flame at his fingertips and burn it at the position of the lock beam. After burning for three minutes, the lock beam was completely disconnected.

The suitcase was also opened.

Lying quietly in the suitcase were a pistol and two magazines filled with bullets, as well as a dozen zombie crystal cores and... four superpower crystal cores.

Among the four crystal nuclei, two are red, one is gold, and one is green.

Ying Xian picked up the crystal cores and placed them in the palm of his hand, wrapping them with superpowers. The green and red crystal cores melted and disappeared in the palm of his hand, leaving only the golden core lying quietly in his palm.

It seems that his second power was not obtained through the crystal core of the superpower, but that he lacked an opportunity to develop fire-type powers, and the crystal core happened to play a role in development.

Ying Xian squinted his eyes tiredly and waved his hand to put the suitcase into the space.

"Let's go, senior."

The two of them went downstairs together. On the concrete floor downstairs, there were two rows of muddy wheel marks from large trucks. One row was for arrivals and the other was for departures.

Fortunately, both rows of marks seem to come from the same place and then return to the same place.

Ying Xian drove his car in the direction of the mud prints. Before he left Zhenghe District, it suddenly started raining heavily, washing away the marks on the ground.

The car stopped near the Zhenghe Bridge. When Ying Xian was so desperate that he didn't know what to do, Shu Kongdu caught a glimpse of an unknown ID card on the ground in the distance and quickly got out of the car and picked it up.

The ID card belonged to Chu Zheng, and there was a note on the back.

"I am Wu Yuewan. I took Chu Zheng away. If you don't believe me, go to S Area to find me."

Ying Xian looked at the graceful but powerful handwriting on the note, frowned slightly, and drove towards the base without any hesitation.

The base went through the usual procedures and checked whether there were any wounds on their bodies before letting them in.

However, Ying Xian just threw the bag containing the missing finger and the team ID card to Shu Kongdu, asked him to redeem the points, and then went to Area S alone.

Didn’t Wu Yuewan not recognize Chu Zheng at first?

Why take her away now?

As soon as Ying Xian arrived in Area S, he saw a man in a white coat waiting at the door. As soon as he saw her coming, he immediately greeted her, "You are Ying Xian, right? Dr. Wu is waiting for you."

The white coat led Ying Xian through the entire S area and came to the entrance of the research institute.

The research institute is heavily guarded. When seeing a strange face, even if someone from the research institute brings him personally, the sentry at the door will check him several times before letting him in.

When Wu Yuewan saw Ying Xian, she curved her lips and waved her hands to let everyone else in the office leave.

"Xiao Ying, I didn't expect you to really come to me? Is it because you don't believe that I took Chu Zheng away?" Her voice was no longer as gentle as before, but instead sounded a little sinister and condescending.

Ying Xian looked at Wu Yuewan in front of her. She was much thinner than the last time they met via video. Her originally soft facial features were now prominent because of her thinness, and she looked a bit sarcastic.

"Aunt Wu, no, Doctor Wu. I don't mean not to believe you. I just want to ask you this time, why did you deny Chu Zheng at first and take her away now?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Yuewan's expression changed slightly, "I don't recognize her for her own good. As for taking her away... isn't it because you can't protect her at all?"

Even though the words were all for Chu Zheng's good, Ying Xian felt that when Wu Yuewan mentioned Chu Zheng, there was no trace of a mother's love for her daughter in her eyes, and she was even as cold as a stranger.

"Where is Chu Zheng? Is she safe now?"

"Of course she is safe! I am her mother!" Wu Yuewan's expression became more and more uncomfortable, as if she was filled with love and hate, "But I want to ask you, why did Chu Zheng awaken her powers?"

The sudden change of topic made Ying Xian startled, and he subconsciously told himself that he could not tell her the truth.

"I don't know. Isn't Dr. Wu from the institute? You should have deeper research on this aspect than I do."

When Ying Xian mentioned the word "research institute", Wu Yuewan's eyes flashed with disgust, and then her expression became distant, "Since you don't want to say it, forget it, Chu Zheng is safe, and you will never meet again in the future."
