Ding Wei hurriedly pulled Qin Jue into the room by the window and closed the observation window.
"Let's go down first, it's not very safe here." Ding Wei led Qin Jue down the spiral staircase to the city wall.
After the two went downstairs, they happened to see the Leishao team and others heading in the same direction. The guard said a few words into Ding Wei's ear.
Ding Wei's face didn't look good and he just nodded.
Turning around and seeing Qin Jue, he raised his eyebrows and said, "The conference room should be very lively tonight. You can come too. Lei Shao probably won't mind either."
The conference room is in a spherical-shaped building, which was formerly the Science and Technology Museum in H City. There is a multi-functional hall on the second floor with a long table and a podium. Important matters in the autonomous region are discussed in this multi-functional hall.
There are many people gathered in the hall now. In addition to Lei Shao and team members, Dr. Luo, there are also some people Qin Jue has never seen before. The hall was bustling with people arguing fiercely.
Qin Jue followed Ding Wei and stood quietly by the wall, not wanting to attract attention.
Lei Shao was sitting in the center of the conference room. It was difficult for Qin Jue to ignore him even if he wanted to.
Still wearing the black shirt and outdoor trousers, the black leather bracelet hangs loosely on the wrist at the moment, adding a rare sense of relaxation to the whole person. Without the lightning arc, he hides a bit of fierceness and dominance. When there is a slight smile on his face, he looks more like a well-educated rich young man.
Even if there is no arc of lightning surrounding him, compared to the rest of the crowd, he still has his own brilliance, which is eye-catching. This man turned out to be so dazzling, no wonder she couldn't help but follow his back with her eyes.
After staring blankly for a moment, he realized that he was absent-minded, and instinctively wanted to turn his head to escape from the cluster of shining candles in the darkness, but he was unable to struggle despite his own safety.
Soon someone in the hall discovered her presence. People were full of doubts and speculations about this girl with a strange face. It was said that she was somewhat unclear about Lei Shao and the mutated zombies that were attacking tonight.
The conference room quickly became quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on the tall girl standing at the door.
Qin Jue had no choice but to raise his hand and say hello, showing an unnatural smile.
People with stage fright will not be timid, but looking at the faces of men, women, old and young with different expressions, Qin Jue pursed her lips silently. When the eyes of the people around her came around, Lei Shao also raised his eyes to look at her.
Their eyes met in the air, and the idea of turning around and running away flashed in their heads. Suddenly Ding Wei grabbed his arm and said, "Please take a seat."
Qin Jue, who has always been generous, felt a rare moment of embarrassment under the gaze of so many people. She wanted to keep a relaxed pace, but with her tall figure, outstanding appearance, and those rumors... people really didn't intend to let go of her every move.
There were no empty seats at the round table where there was a lot of discussion. Probably all the people in charge of various resources in the autonomous region have arrived.
Qin Jue slowly walked to Yu Long and Lin Yan and found that they were right next to each other and there was no room for them.
In fact, Qin Jue was not the only one who was silently staring at Lei Shao just now.
As a member of the team, Lin Yan has powerful abilities. She has been through several adventures with Lei Shao, and her life has been entrusted to her. This friendship should be valuable, but it is extremely difficult to get closer to this friendship.
Although Lei Shao has a handsome and elegant demeanor, he is actually violent and even a little paranoid, so he is not a good match. Lin Yan thought Lei Shao would remain alone like this, until Qin Jue appeared, she saw that the statue in her heart seemed to have cracks, and there were many emotions that she had never had before.
For example, right now.
"Ajue." A gentle and deep voice suddenly called out a name. There was only one person in the hall with Jue in his name.
After a moment of silence, Qin Jue raised his head stiffly. It was the first time I heard this voice call out my nickname intimately. Although I felt a little inexplicable, I couldn't help but feel my ears burning.
Lei Shao tilted his chin slightly to signal to her.
"come over."
Qin Jue slowly moved to Lei Shao's side. He pulled a chair and placed it next to him. He patted the back of the chair and motioned to Qin Jue, "Sit down."
The surrounding gradually became silent, and Qin Jue nervously moved to sit on the edge of the chair.
Lin Yan's face froze, and she felt heartbroken for no reason at the sight of the two sitting next to each other. If she had known that idols could also move mortal hearts, she should have been more proactive. When a man is young and vigorous, he may be able to have a good relationship long ago if he can withstand repeated marriages.
But even so, she didn't intend to offend Lei Shao in front of so many people. But no matter what, I can't stay any longer.
Lin Yan stood up loudly, her chair making a screeching sound on the ground. With a cold face, he looked at Qin Jue and said: "You are new here, your origin is unknown, and you have wounds from zombie bites. So far, we have not seen any human beings who have been bitten by zombies and are still alive. And the mutant zombie in the lead today is obviously It has something to do with you, maybe it’s just you.”
After a pause, she raised her eyes to look at Lei Shao, pursed her lips, and said, "I don't trust her." She looked at Lei Shao with eager eyes, but the answer was silence, and he didn't even raise his eyes to look at her.
Her face turned pale, she turned around and walked towards the door with her head held high.
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding area exploded.
"Been bitten by a zombie?!"
"Is she the cause of today's situation?"
"Are the mutated zombies here to find her?"
"Our walls are almost unstoppable. What will the rest of us do next time Lei Shao is away?"
"People like this shouldn't be here."
Seeing the slightly raised corners of Ding Wei's mouth standing by the door, Lin Yan rolled her eyes and let out a sigh. Ding Wei lowered his head and touched the tip of his nose, hiding his smile between his fingers.
Lei Shao tapped his fingers on the table, still not intending to speak.
Until a round-faced uncle stood up and said in a somewhat impatient manner: "Boss Lei, we have heard about this girl. What Lin Yan said is not unreasonable. What happened tonight was not a coincidence. If there is a follow-up , so many of our manpower and material resources have been entrusted to you."
He alone said what many people wanted to say but didn't say, and soon the crowd in the hall began to argue with each other.
Someone said, "You joined the autonomous region because it is safe here. Lei Shao leads the team to protect everyone. The supplies are all distributed uniformly. Isn't this already agreed upon?"
"But safety cannot be guaranteed now. What if? These things keep mutating, and neither the number of people fighting nor the superpowers are getting stronger."
"Haha, is this getting to the point? What's your plan? Do you, Old Wu, think I don't know?"
"Dr. Luo, how is the development of the superpower serum going? Even if it doesn't work, let us ordinary people give it a try. The more people who can fight, the better security we will have."
When Dr. Luo heard that the fire finally reached him, he stretched out his hand and plucked his hair, "It's not impossible, but there is a half chance that it will become one of those things. There is no way to guarantee the result. If you want to try, just try."
Old Wu, who was so angry that he started talking, smacked his lips and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't give it. There are reagents on the black market out there. There should be some reliable sources of supply, and you are not the only one doing this."
"That's okay. Maybe it's 100% mutated zombie serum, and it's done in one step." Dr. Luo pushed away his chair and stood up, putting his hands on the table and loudly said, "Finally, I would like to advise everyone, don't rush into the serum matter. . Otherwise, you will be responsible for the consequences." After saying that, he turned around and left the venue.
"Don't let the topic go too far." A woman who looked to be about 50 years old interrupted the noisy debate. She had gray hair, but it was neatly combed back. His face was solemn, and the corners of his mouth were pursed tightly and slightly drooped.
She looked at Qin Jue with a kind face but stern eyes and asked, "Xiao Qin, have you really been bitten by a zombie?"
