Chapter 76
A small, dimly lit room.
The man was lying on a small bed in the room, his limbs were immobilized and he could not move. There were some people in white coats moving around the bed, and there were two soldiers guarding the door.
Hu Zhi fell into a coma for two days, and every time he seemed to wake up, he would be injected with the reagent again. After a while, he became dizzy and lost consciousness again, and the cycle started again and again.
The woman stood at the head of the bed, holding Hu Zhi's head with both hands, and a white light as thin as a line slowly radiated from the palm of her hand. White light penetrated into Hu Zhi's temple, the woman closed her eyes and kept this posture still.
A series of footsteps came from the door, the woman pulled the white light out of Hu Zhi's mind, straightened up to welcome the person who came. "Chief." The
middle-aged man glanced at Hu Zhi, "how is the memory retrieval going?"
"I've already checked this person's memory roughly, and there is no blind spot. He doesn't know anything about the Zombie King. I just lived with them for a while." The woman replied after sorting out her memories.
"What about his memories of other people? Is there anything suspicious about the three adults and two children? I will make a detailed report and submit it."
"Also, send him back to the original place after the memory is retrieved. Erase all his memories of this place." Hu Zhi was of little use to them.
The iron gate was closed, and the woman stood for a while, knowing that the people around her called her, and then went back to export Hu Zhi's memory.
The aroma of food wafted from the kitchen, the water in the small pot was boiling and bubbling with milky white bubbles, and the chopping board and kitchen knife combined into a song of crisp ingredients. Si Huan was humming a ditty in the kitchen, pouring diced carrots and potatoes into the pot and frying them, and the strong aroma burst out suddenly.
"It smells so good." Jiang Changjing had just put Si Bai and Xiaozhi to sleep, and followed the scent to the kitchen. Like a koala, he hugged Si Huan from behind, stuck behind him and moved with him, "My wife is amazing, and she cooks deliciously."
Si Huan was happy in his heart, but he disliked the big whale for slowing down his movements.
"You're dead, help me cut tofu when you have time."
"Of order." Jiang Changjing also put on an apron and worked together in the kitchen.
Tonight is the reunion dinner after returning home, Si Huan wanted to make it richer, and put four dishes and one soup on the table.
The hour hand turned the number seven, and Fang Yilan returned to the door of the house. She took out the key and hit the keyhole several times without hitting it. Si Huan heard the sound outside the door and got up from the sofa to open the door.
"Mom!" He gave his mother a hug.
Jiang Changjing took the bowls and chopsticks from the kitchen, looked at Fang Yilan and called Mom.
Fang Yilan took her son's hand and squeezed the flesh on his arm, "You see you've lost weight again, didn't you eat well outside? You told me to eat and sleep well on the phone, and you could tell I was lying Yes ."
"I'm not thin, I'm obviously fat, you always say I'm thin. Da Jing, do you think I'm thin!" Si Huan turned to ask Da Jing.
Jiang Changjing recalled the feeling of holding his daughter-in-law to sleep at night, "It's okay, it's very well-proportioned."
Fang Yilan patted his son's hand, "Okay, I won't argue with you. Xiaozhi hasn't seen my cute baby for a long time. Granddaughter."
Si Huan glanced in the direction of the bedroom, "Both of them are sleeping. They were tired from playing in the water in the community this afternoon, so they went to bed after taking a shower. I left some food for them, and I will wait for you later. Let them eat after they get up. Let's eat first."
Fang Yilan dragged her coat and put it on the sofa, walked to the dining table and suddenly asked: "How is Xiao Jiang now, I don't know what you said on the phone. "
Just like a normal person, talking and walking is completely fine. Although most of the organs still haven't recovered, the sense of pain, smell and taste have all recovered. Big whales used to eat tasteless food, and they only ate raw meat. Now He can eat like us." Si Huan said while helping his mother fill up the meal.
"Mom, what is the highest level of supernatural beings in the base at time B?"
Fang Yilan: "The lightning-type power user I told you about before, he is now in the middle of the sixth level, and the others should not have passed the sixth-level power."
"Then no one can surpass the big whale, When I returned to the gas station in T city, I met someone from the former mercenary group. He told me that all the zombies above the third level in city B and T had been captured, and I was more or less afraid. Mom, you Do you know if the army killed them all?"
"I heard that most of them were killed, and the rest were transported to a military base outside the base for secret experiments." Fang Yilan suddenly let go of her hands, chopsticks Slip and fall to the ground. "Ah, I'm going to get a new pair. The spoons are more comfortable to use."
Si Huan raised his head when he heard this, and followed his mother who walked into the kitchen with a strange feeling in his heart.
Big Whale picked up chopsticks and shredded carrots and put them in Si Huan's bowl, "Why are you so stunned?"
He came back to his senses and took two mouthfuls of rice, "No, I accidentally choked on eating too quickly."
" Do you want a sip of soup, no one will grab it from you." Jiang Changjing looked at him with a smile.
Fang Yilan returned to the dining table with new chopsticks, "Xiao Si, are you going to stay in City B to find a job?"
Si Huan hesitated and said, "Yes, I'm still thinking about it. If you stay in the base to find a job, Big Whale will stay at home as a full-time nanny to take care of Cubs and Twigs."
"I don't object to you young people running out, but it's better to have a more stable home. But Xiao Jiang's affairs are really troublesome. If you grab your ideas, Mom will talk too much." Say a few words."
Si Huan was in a dilemma, before returning home, he was eager to return, and after returning home, he was worried about the big whale. Afraid that he would be sensed by the supernatural being, he had to wear a mask like before when he went out, or hide in his own space.
"Mom, it would be great if you could go with us. Let's leave City B and find a base in a small coastal city to settle down." Si Huan knew that her mother's work was very important, and she refused to ask her to go with them the last time.
But this time, Fang Yilan said, "I plan to resign this year."
The news came a little suddenly, and Si Huan was taken aback: "Resign? You finally want to resign! I advised you to go home and rest for a few more days before." I do n’t want to.”
“Mom is getting old, and her health is not as good as before. I used to spend a day in the laboratory, but now I can’t. Many young researchers in the laboratory are good, and I feel relieved to have them. I have been busy for decades, so I should retire early Go home and hug your grandchildren." Fang Yilan said.
Si Huan said happily: "When did you resign? Did you tell the above that they agreed to let you go?"
If the mother can resign smoothly, they can plan in advance which city to live in.
"I originally planned to resign at the end of the year. Now that you are back, I will submit my resignation letter in two months." Fang Yilan frowned, but the smile did not reach her eyes.
After dinner, Si Huan and Jiang Changjing washed the dishes together, and Fang Yilan went to the bedroom to take care of Si Bai and Xiaozhi.
After wiping detergent on the bowls and chopsticks, Si Huan secretly took a look outside. Then he touched the big whale with his elbow, and said in a low voice, "Do you feel that something is wrong with mom tonight?"
Jiang Changjing frowned and replied, "No, isn't mom always like this?"
"I think it's a little bit Something is wrong, my mother was not like this before, she felt a little strange to us. She didn’t smile very much, it made me feel weird.” Si Huan thought about the scene during the meal just now, “I also felt weird when I spoke. Yes, and my mother is willing to resign. I have persuaded her many times before but she is not willing. Today the sun came out to the west, and she offered to resign."
"Maybe Mom has something on her mind, it is not convenient for me to say that you are with me tonight. Talk to her." After Si Huan said this, Jiang Changjing felt a little strange in his heart.
Si Huan: "I'll ask later, I hope I'm thinking too much. We will stay in the base before my mother resigns, and I feel wronged that you help take care of the children at home. However, the education of the two children is a bit tricky. Originally, I thought When they reach school age, they will send him to the newly built elementary school in the base, and they may need to find another teacher to tutor them in other bases."
"Maybe there will be schools in other bases in two years, so don't worry about things that are uncertain. .” Jiang Changjing unknowingly washed all the dishes.
