Chapter 310: Xia Mufei is Bitten
Because the scene was too chaotic, naturally, no one noticed Xia Ying, pale as death, standing motionless like a puppet on strings.
Amid the screaming and shoving of the crowd, Xia Ying felt as if someone told him to run.
Run?
Where could he run to?
And why should he run?
He didn’t even know why he was standing there, in this world, he had always been the only one indulging in unrequited love…
...Xia Ying naturally didn’t notice that, at this moment, a person lying on the ground who had been bitten suddenly opened his white eyes and pounced on him unprepared!
Roar!
A familiar figure threw itself in front of him.
He looked down and couldn’t help frowning—why was Xia Mufei sobbing and throwing himself in front of him?Not until he saw the zombie behind Xia Mufei and the bloodstain on Xia Mufei’s shoulder did his focus gradually return.
“Xia Ying, you’ve saved me many times before. I’m returning the favor this time. We’re still brothers, right?”
Xia Mufei forced an ugly smile and said to Xia Ying.
Bang!
The zombie behind Xia Mufei had been killed on the spot by the arriving Ye Rongxin, but Xia Mufei fell down.
“From now on… live for yourself…”
After speaking, Xia Mufei closed his eyes, his dangling hand causing Xia Ying to pause for a moment.
Not until he saw the bloody bite on Xia Mufei’s shoulder did Xia Ying seem to realize something, and he picked up Xia Mufei, rushing towards the outside of the base!
“He’s running!”
Although the scene was chaotic then, a guard squad member still spotted the fleeing Xia Ying.
Ye Rongxin fired a few more shots in the direction Xia Ying was running, but Xia Ying seemed to vanish; even the renowned sharpshooter didn’t hit him.
“He must be invisible,”
Liang Jiuhui said, looking in the direction Xia Ying had run.
“Should we pursue?”
After settling Liang Wei, Sheng Jing also came over and asked, but her Mental Element Ability’s range was still quite small. She could no longer sense Xia Ying’s direction, and with the constant movement of people in the base, it was hard for her to distinguish.
Liang Jiuhui shook his head. If Xia Ying truly wanted to escape, no one could catch up to him, and the current Xia Ying no longer posed a threat to Liang Wei.
What concerned him was the young man Xia Ying took with him, who had been bitten; if he turned into a zombie within the base, that would be quite troublesome…
Liang Jiuhui remembered Mao Qiqi; he had heard that Mao Qiqi’s sensing range had already covered the entire base, but it was already late night. Thinking of Su Jin and the others who had just returned from the fight, Liang Jiuhui sighed and decided to ask tomorrow.
None of Liang Jiuhui’s group could have guessed that at that moment, Xia Ying, carrying the injured Xia Mufei and using his invisibility ability, was standing at the entrance of Su Jin’s villa!
Mao Qiqi opened her eyes in the bedroom.
Someone was downstairs!
But that person hadn’t come in yet—it seemed like two people?
Mao Qiqi quickly put on her slippers and knocked on Su Jin and Lu Hao’s door.
Lu Hao was a light sleeper. Mao Qiqi had only knocked twice when he already opened the door from inside.
“Little… brother-in-law, it’s you,” Mao Qiqi had thought Su Jin would be the one to open the door.
“What’s the matter, Qiqi?”
Lu Hao asked, wondering if there was some danger given that Qiqi was knocking at this time.
“There are two people at our door,”
Mao Qiqi answered.
At that moment, a rush of pounding knocks rang up from downstairs.
Su Jin had already risen, and at first, after hearing what Mao Qiqi said, she thought it was a thief or something; but since the person was knocking, it seemed that wasn’t the case.
“I’ll go check.”
Lu Hao walked down toward the stairs.
Su Jin and Mao Qiqi also followed Lu Hao downstairs.
After the three of them opened the door, they hadn’t expected that the person standing outside would be Xia Ying—and on his back was Xia Mufei! Su Jin’s breath hitched; it was Xia Mufei!
“Please, save him,”
Xia Ying immediately knelt down.
“Come inside, then talk,”
Lu Hao seemed to have realized something too; the wound on Xia Mufei’s shoulder was clearly a zombie bite.
At this moment, the family upstairs had been awakened by the knock, and seeing Xia Mufei lying on the floor, Lin Cheng and others couldn’t help but loudly ask, “How did he get bitten?”
Xia Mufei had already passed out, and Su Jin, after carefully examining the wound on his shoulder, saw that a piece of flesh had been torn right off! Fortunately, the area around the wound hadn’t discolored or rotted, but Mao Qiqi said that this man was about to die!
There was no time to delay, Su Jin didn’t ask further and immediately had people carry him to the basement.
The family had originally transformed the villa’s basement into a home cinema and gym, so there were sofas where Xia Mufei could lie down, and the area was quite enclosed. Even if Xia Mufei turned into a zombie, it wouldn’t alarm the neighbors.
“Why do you think we could save him?”
Su Jin had a bad hunch in her heart.
Xia Ying seemed to have been crying, but still answered Su Jin, “You’ve always been good to him. Also, I am an Invisibility Ability User and saw Aunt adding something to the water she gave the injured; many who drank it got better,”
There were even two people who had been scratched but did not turn into zombies.
!!!
Su Jin was shocked.
Indeed, he had discovered something, but it was no wonder—Xia Ying, being invisible, could easily go unnoticed by Mrs. Su, so it seemed they had been careless.
“How many people saw him get bitten?”
Lu Hao asked; Mao Qiqi had just mentioned the sudden appearance of zombies in the Central District.
“Many people saw it, don’t worry. If he survives, I’ll take him and leave S City base forever, and I won’t tell anyone about this, him included. Or if you prefer, just to save him, you can kill me right now,”
Xia Ying said these words without the slightest hesitation, aware of what these people were concerned about, and also knowing they might not believe him. If one life could be traded for another, that would indeed be too valuable.
The one who should go to hell was him, after all.
Having heard this, Su Jin said nothing more; she pretended to have brought down a bottle of water from upstairs and then pulled Mrs. Su into the home cinema room.
The others, including Xia Ying, waited outside in the gym area.
Xia Ying knew that they were willing to save Xia Mufei; it seemed his gamble had paid off.
“What exactly happened? How did that child get bitten while at the base?”
Although Lin Tianzhen was shocked by all this, she still didn’t understand why Xia Mufei had been bitten by a zombie.
Xia Ying told everyone about what had happened that night.
To say people were not shocked would be a lie; it turned out Xia Ying was the Invisibility Ability User whom Liang Jiuhui had been searching for so long!
In the next room, Su Jin and Mrs. Su also heard Xia Ying’s words; at the moment, Xia Mufei’s condition was not very good. Su Jin had already fed him Spatial Water, but it didn’t seem to be having much effect.
Su Jin remembered the method Lu Hao had used back then and took out a large bucket from her Space, filled with creek water; she then used vines to submerge Xia Mufei completely in it.
Following that, Lin Tianhui and Su Jin together applied their healing abilities to Xia Mufei.
Su Jin, watching Xia Mufei submerged in the water, sighed softly.
Xia Mufei, I owe you from a past life.
