safe house.
"Come, sit down."
Xu Qing took Ren Feifei to her room, helped Ren Feifei sit on a chair, then turned around to pour a glass of hot water, took some food, and placed it in front of Ren Feifei.
The food she ate was saved bit by bit by herself, and the food was distributed in rations every day. She always wanted to keep some, at least if something happened one day, she could respond.
Ren Feifei looked blankly at the steaming glass of water and the mouth-watering food in front of her, and couldn't help showing a hint of pain.
Who would have thought that at this time, you can actually drink a cup of steaming hot water.
She thought of her boyfriend.
To save her, he left on an empty stomach.
How great would it be if he could come here alive?
Confusing thoughts lingered in Xu Qing's mind, making her face become more and more struggling.
Looking at Ren Feifei, who was in pain, Xu Qing couldn't help but frown, and she couldn't help but feel compassion. The jealousy and hostility that had just remained in her heart gradually dissipated.
She didn't know where the girl in front of her came from, what she had experienced, and she didn't even know her name.
"My name is Xu Qing, what's yours?"
Xu Qing hesitated for a moment, sat down next to Ren Feifei, reached out and grabbed Ren Feifei's hand, and asked gently.
She was trying to put the girl at ease.
Ren Feifei looked up at Xu Qing blankly. She said nothing, her eyes were dull, and the hot water and food in front of her were untouched.
The person she loved most had just died. If she was devouring it now, how could she be worthy of his desperate protection?
She fell into deep self-blame.
"What happened? Can you tell me?"
"Perhaps there is something I can do to help you?"
Xu Qing continued to inquire with concern.
But the answer to her was still a long silence. In her eyes, although the girl in front of her was rescued, her soul was gone and she looked more like a walking corpse.
Xu Qing hesitated for a while, sighed helplessly, got up and walked out.
"Look at her. She is very emotionally unstable now. Don't let her do anything stupid."
Xu Qing opened the door, called a guard in the corridor over, whispered a warning, glanced worriedly into the room, and walked straight to Duan Mufeng's room.
"What's wrong?"
Hearing the knock on the door, Duan Mufeng opened the door while arranging the clothes he had just changed.
"...Oh...Well, that girl doesn't know what she has been through. She looks very painful. She doesn't eat or drink, and she doesn't say a word."
Seeing Duan Mufeng's open collar and half-covered strong chest, Xu Qing was stunned for a moment, coughed awkwardly, and said with a red face.
"His boyfriend just died."
Duan Mufeng replied casually, turned around and returned to the room, putting on his clothes.
Hearing Duan Mufeng's answer, Xu Qing, who walked into the room unknowingly, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. She immediately understood why Ren Feifei was in so much pain, and couldn't help but feel a little sympathy.
"I killed him."
But Duan Mufeng's words that followed made her completely stunned on the spot, and her eyes widened in surprise.
Until now, she and Lu Zhengming didn't know what Duan Mufeng and the others did after they left. They only knew that when Duan Mufeng came back, he not only brought back a woman, but also brought back a lot of sophisticated equipment and instruments.
"He's infected."
Duan Mufeng picked up the half glass of red wine on the table and drank it down in one gulp. He glanced at the stunned Xu Qing and explained.
Hearing Duan Mufeng's words, Xu Qing finally recovered from the shock and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Immediately afterwards, Duan Mufeng told Xu Qing all about Yao Yongkang's lying, cheating, and using power for personal gain, as well as the identities of Sun Simiao and Ren Feifei.
"So that's it!"
After hearing this, Xu Qing finally understood the whole story.
After a while, Duan Mufeng, who had changed into new clothes, followed Xu Qing to Xu Qing's room.
Seeing the helpless Ren Feifei sitting on the chair, Duan Mufeng couldn't help but frown, hesitated, and walked closer.
"Dead people cannot be resurrected. He tried his best to save you and even died for you. If you just give up on yourself like this, wouldn't his death be in vain?"
"Only by helping him develop more reagents and saving more people can we best honor him. This was also his last wish before his death."
Duan Mufeng looked at Ren Feifei, who was sitting motionless on the chair, and said seriously.
After hearing Duan Mufeng's words, Ren Feifei struggled with her face and gradually recalled the situation before Sun Simiao's death. She couldn't help biting her lip hard, and tears burst out of her eyes again.
She remembered that he hoped to use the reagent to save more people.
She remembered that he wanted her to live well.
After a brief silence, Ren Feifei suddenly sat up straight, picked up the food on the table, and began to eat, letting her tears flow into her mouth mixed with the food.
She has made her decision.
Live for Him.
Seeing Ren Feifei who had already started eating, Duan Mufeng pursed his lips and showed a smile. Without saying anything more, he turned around and walked out.
Xu Qing glanced at Ren Feifei, then at Duan Mufeng who was about to leave, and subconsciously followed her out.
"Don't worry, let her stay in my room tonight, and I will watch over her."
Xu Qing said softly while sending Duan Mufeng out of the room.
She didn't expect that her persuasion for a long time had no effect, but Feng Shuai's casual words had an effect.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Duan Mufeng turned to look at Xu Qing, said slowly, and then turned back to his room.
Xu Qing stood at the door for a long time, then turned around and closed the door, staying by Ren Feifei's side.
Soon after, Tang Jun and Wu Jun entered Duan Mufeng's room one after another after receiving Duan Mufeng's order.
Duanmufeng was sitting on the sofa. On the coffee table was the suitcase he brought back from the biological research center, which contained dozens of Lowe's 13th generation reagents.
Looking at these reagents, Wu Jun's eyes lit up. He wished that everyone here could have one.
But Tang Jun secretly looked at Duan Mufeng, frowning slightly. On the way back, he saw the bite wound on Duan Mufeng's shoulder, but it was gone now, leaving only the scar.
"These are the reagents just brought back from the Biological Research Center. Take 32 reagents out of them and distribute them back to those who did not get the reagents before."
Duanmu Feng pointed to the suitcase and said calmly.
The number of Tianlong Guards members has reduced from the original forty-eight to only forty-two.
"real?!"
Hearing Duan Mufeng's words, Wu Jun opened his eyes wide in surprise and asked in disbelief.
This was exactly what he was really thinking just now.
Hearing Wu Jun's excited voice, Tang Jun also came back to his senses.
"I've thought about it. The situation will get more and more serious next time. I'd better try to ensure enough manpower to avoid any further troubles."
Duanmu Feng nodded and said.
"Very good!"
Wu Jun rubbed his hands excitedly, said excitedly, and hurriedly took out thirty-two reagents from the suitcase.
"You are responsible for reinforcing the defense network around the safe house to ensure that it can achieve a certain defensive effect against mutants and mutant beasts. In addition, install more surveillance cameras around the safe house and connect it to the safe house's monitoring system."
Then, Duanmu Feng turned to look at Tang Jun and said in a deep voice.
"yes!"
Tang Jun nodded hesitantly and agreed loudly.
After a while, Wu Jun and Tang Jun left Duan Mufeng's room together with satisfaction.
Wu Jun couldn't wait to go downstairs with the reagents and distributed them to everyone, which caused quite a commotion. Everyone was filled with gratitude to Duan Mufeng.
At this point, everyone in the safe house has been injected with the reagent and has avoided the risk of infection.
But Duanmufeng didn't tell anyone that although the reagent could protect against virus infection and bites and scratches from mutants and mutant beasts, it could not protect against direct damage from alien species!
He only hoped that when they encountered alien species in the future, they would have a chance to escape.
In the next two days, Tang Jun also quickly began to strengthen the defenses around the safe house, and installed alarms on the defense network that Wu Jun had built. As long as someone breaks in, the monitoring system will immediately issue an alert.
Moreover, many new surveillance cameras have been added nearby, closely monitoring every blind spot around. All mutant humans and mutant beasts are prohibited. Although it is limited to ordinary mutants and mutant beasts, today's safe houses are already considered impregnable.
You can even go to the yard to bask in the sun and enjoy the wind when you have nothing to do. Everyone understood that following Duanmu Feng was indeed the most correct choice.
Immediately afterwards, Duanmu Feng ordered people to move the equipment into an office on the top floor and use it as a reagent research laboratory. Ren Feifei, who regained hope, immediately devoted herself to reagent research and development and sent people to guard it 24 hours a day.
No one is allowed to come near without his orders.
Gradually, living has become everyone's only belief...
