This Wave of Zombies is No Good - Chapter 51

At that time, in B City, within K Division, the weather was clear. The night breeze was slightly cool, carrying the scent of the night.

He Ye was on the roof, fiddling with the communication antenna, adjusting it in various directions.

“Good, this direction will do,” Wei Lin said.

He Ye clapped his hands, nimbly climbed down from the roof, and complained, “Why can others enjoy their holidays, but I have to be here with you messing with equipment!”

“Because you’re a good person,” Wei Lin briefly replied.

He Ye asked again, “Where did Instructor and Zou Lang go?”

“Instructor probably went home, right?” Wei Lin said as he picked up the toolbox that was set aside, “As for Zou Lang, who knows where he’s wandering?”

“Tsk tsk, I’m really envious,” He Ye sighed.

At that moment, the two people they were envying were trapped in dire straits.

“By the way, these past few days, I’ve established a two-person channel. It’s encrypted,” Wei Lin said while fiddling with the communicator in his hand.

“What does that mean?” He Ye didn’t understand.

“It means that I’ve created a top-secret channel. In this world, only two people are at the ends of this channel. Whatever they say in this channel, no one else will know.”

“Will no one in the world know?” Although He Ye didn’t understand the principle, he found it all quite incredible.

Wei Lin nodded, “The division commander, the operator, no one will know.”

“It sounds fun.”

“I can give you a demonstration to see, as the final exam for whether you can graduate from cryptography.”

“Ah, am I in this channel?” He Ye asked.

Wei Lin took out the communicator and fiddled with it a few times, sending out a line of numbers.

He Ye’s communicator beeped, indicating that he had received a message.

He Ye opened it, converted the numbers into Chinese characters, and spelled them out one by one, “He, Ye, I, like, you.”

“Damn!” He Ye exploded in anger after spelling it out, “Wei Lin, are you making fun of me again? Is this amusing to you?”

“It seems you’ve been studying well recently, you can even decipher two-layer encryption.” As Wei Lin spoke, he suddenly reached out and pulled He Ye into his arms, giving him a light peck.

He Ye took a step back, broke free from Wei Lin’s embrace, and incredulously covered his cheek with his hand. It felt as if he had been shocked by something. The soft sensation just now was definitely from lips brushing past. He was a bit dazed and somewhat incredulous, “Damn…you…”

Wei Lin smiled satisfactorily, licked his lips, and acted as if nothing had happened. It seemed like he was answering He Ye’s previous question, giving him an affirmative answer, “It’s amusing.”

Even if He Ye was slow, he understood now.

Could this be the legendary confession method unique to engineering men?

The K Division’s training ground was quiet at night, with no one practicing. It was eerily silent.

He Ye suddenly hesitated. He didn’t know how to see Wei Lin, as a comrade, a good brother, or perhaps try to take it a step further?

The female doctor found some medical gauze and medicine. After re-bandaging the driver’s wound and injecting him with medicine, the driver’s bleeding finally slowed down. At this point, an hour had passed since he was bitten, and there were no signs of him turning into a zombie after being bitten.

The general process of turning into a zombie would not exceed 24 hours at most.

Then the female doctor took out a test kit and said, “I also found some test strips, we can do a test.”

The driver’s face became even more ashen, “I…I’m a bit scared, but…you guys should still test it.”

If the result was negative, there was a high chance that he had not been infected. But if it was positive, his life might be ended prematurely.

The few of them were now in a small room. If they could quarantine in advance, then even if he had already been infected, the survival rate of the other few people would increase.

“It will be fine.” The female doctor patted his hand again, took a little blood from his wound, and put it in the test kit. The test result would appear in ten minutes.

After Zou Lang finished his conversation with Zou Fang, he came over to check on the driver’s condition, “Everyone is trapped here, let’s tell each other our names. Otherwise, it’s not very convenient to always say ‘you’. My name is Zou Lang.”

Yu Jingtang, who was sitting on the sofa, also introduced himself.

The driver had just reported his name, Zhang Yuan. The middle-aged man who looked like a boss was surnamed Qin, and he asked everyone to call him Boss Qin. The female doctor who looked like a student was named Gong Qianye.

“Come on, Boss Qin, help me find something good for dinner, I’ll wash the rice first.” Zou Lang saw that Yu Jingtang looked a bit wilted and didn’t hesitate to start ordering other people around. He washed the rice skillfully and put it in the rice cooker, then asked the girl surnamed Gong, “You said you’re a doctor? But I think you look like a student. Which school are you from, how many years have you graduated?”

The girl pushed up her glasses, showing a bit of displeasure at being underestimated, “I work at the Second Research Institute.”

“The Second Research Institute? You’re with Fang Yanzhou?” Zou Lang asked.

Gong Qianye was a bit surprised, “You know Dr. Fang?” Then she shrugged her shoulders unnaturally, “I’m just a researcher at this level, I can’t even see Dr. Fang’s face, but I will work hard.”

As Zou Lang took the four tomatoes and four eggs handed over by the uncle, he skillfully cracked the eggs and continued to chat, “Oh, from what you’re saying, Fang Yanzhou’s level isn’t low, huh? Not someone like you can see if you want to?”

“Of course!” Gong Qianye said indignantly.

“I heard that many young women in research regard Fang Yanzhou as an idol, you’re not one of them, are you?”

Gong Qianye denied it outright, “I have my own idol, and it’s not him.”

“Who?”

“Professor Jiang Shuhuai.” Gong Qianye said this name with a bit of pride.

This name was somewhat unfamiliar to the younger Yu Jingtang. He had been caught in the rain and was a bit feverish at the moment. Not wanting to worry everyone, he kept quiet and sat there listening to the others chat.

“Jiang Shuhuai from the former 285 Research Institute?” The uncle was obviously someone who had lived through that era.

“Boss Qin, you’ve heard of him?” Gong Qianye looked pleased.

Uncle Qin scratched his head, “I only know that this person seems to have killed a lot of people in experiments and was later secretly executed.”

He knew Jiang Shuhuai was not bad, but was also not a good thing. Boss Qin remembered that Jiang Shuhuai was once called the devil Satan, that period was also the darkest time of the empire, thousands of babies died because of his experiments.

“The truth is not like that!” Gong Qianye wouldn’t let anyone talk about her idol like that, “Professor Jiang Shuhuai is the greatest scholar in the country for decades, even more awesome than Dr. Fang, he’s not a bad person, he’s a genius, the disaster of that experiment at that time was not caused by him alone. Can you imagine, decades ago, Jiang Shuhuai foresaw this disaster and formulated the Noah’s Ark plan. If it weren’t for him, the human population would be reduced by several times.”

“Noah’s Ark plan?” Yu Jingtang repeated this term with a bit of surprise. Hearing this term, he had a vague impression in his mind, but he didn’t know where he had heard it.

Zou Lang fell silent when the topic came to this. He had also heard of the name Jiang Shuhuai. The one who had raided the 285 Research Institute where Jiang Shuhuai was located was his father, Zou Rui. He washed the tomatoes silently on the side, turned on the induction cooker, and started frying eggs with a sizzle. It was quiet and a bit unnatural.

The smell of cooking oil suddenly filled the open small room.

Outside the window and the door, a few zombies had crowded over at some unknown time, banging on the door.

On one side of the bed lay a driver who could turn into a zombie at any time.

In such an environment, Zou Lang continued to calmly make scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

And Gong Qianye got excited when she mentioned this topic. She looked at the driver on the bed and saw that there was no situation, so she straightened her back and began to give a lengthy speech, “The Noah’s Ark plan is a very complex system overall. Many of the government’s current measures, including the establishment of safe zones and isolation cabins, are based on the theories in the Noah’s Ark plan. But these are not the core part of the Noah’s Ark plan. The most ingenious part of the Noah’s Ark plan is the three major plans: the Wise Man Plan, the Key Plan, and the Immortal Soldier Plan.”

When Yu Jingtang heard this, he frowned. He had a strange sense of familiarity with these topics, but he couldn’t remember their connection.

Zou Lang finally interrupted Gong Qianye, denying, “I’ve never heard of it, not one! All this stuff, it sounds pretty mysterious, but I haven’t seen any of it being implemented now.”

“Don’t talk about my idol’s plan like that!” Gong Qianye said with a bit of anger, as if she firmly believed that her love fight was definitely right, and her love fight could definitely save all mankind, “The professor’s theory is just a bit too advanced. It’s difficult to implement, but it will definitely succeed in the future.”

Zou Lang chuckled, flipping the tomatoes while saying, “Looking at you, you’re quite rational. When it comes to chasing stars, your craziness and blindness are no less than those of young girls.”

And the one she’s a fan of was a scientist who died more than twenty years ago, it’s simply a cross-generational idol.

As they were talking, “beep beep beep,” the ten-minute alarm Gong Qianye had set went off, and the test results came out.
