Chapter 101
Xia Weishuang was suddenly embarrassed and awkward. She had shot herself in the foot.
She couldn’t look directly at Sang Lu. It was too close. Sang Lu was too close, so close that she was almost touching her face, leaving her no room to breathe.
Her deep purple eyes reflected an exceptionally bright and dazzling light. When she glanced at her, she saw the small reflection of herself inside.
Xia Weishuang’s mouth was dry. She actually felt that she was the one who had been burned.
She was so angry that she couldn’t help but push Sang Lu, and stuffed the water cup into Sang Lu’s hand. “If it’s hot, drink water! Why are you looking at me!”
Sang Lu swayed, and not only was she not unhappy about it, but she was also curious.
She tilted her head, drank the water, and asked calmly, “Why like this? Angry, shy…”
Xia Weishuang suddenly reached out and covered her mouth.
Bai Qian/Wei Yunlang/Mi Lele: “Yo—”
Sang Lu looked at her calmly, and her tongue gently licked Xia Weishuang’s palm.
Xia Weishuang took a deep breath and said, “It seems you’re not sleepy anymore. Don’t lean on me. Eat by yourself.”
Sang Lu: “…”
On this day, Sang Lu had once again learned a lesson without being taught: endure for a moment and secretly eat candy, take a step back and the sea and sky will be vast.
The simple hot pot party had returned to calm. After they had finished eating, Wei Yunlang put down his bowl and chopsticks, cleared his throat, and said, “I have something to tell everyone. This news may not be good. I hope everyone is mentally prepared.”
But unexpectedly, no one present was surprised. Of course, Sang Lu was purely in the “I don’t care” category.
Wei Yunlang was a little embarrassed. “At least give me some reaction.”
Xia Weishuang said, “You’ve been in a deep sleep for several days. Even a fool knows that there’s a reason for it. Just say what you have to say.”
Wei Yunlang was helpless and shrugged with a smile. “Alright, then I’ll just say it. I’ve calculated that the disaster star has been born.”
The disaster star, which had been emphasized by Wei Yunlang several times, and even the few of them were now gathered together under the banner of confronting the disaster star. Suddenly, the disaster star, which had been shrouded in clouds and fog and could not be figured out, had appeared. It had to be said that it really made one feel a certain way.
Bai Qian broke the silence and smiled as she took the last slice of ham. “That’s amazing. You’ve worked hard, Little Wei. Then should we prepare to go and find the disaster star?”
Wei Yunlang pressed his chest and rubbed it, and said weakly, “No hurry, no hurry. The birth of that disaster star should not have been seen by me. I forced myself to calculate her position, and I suffered a backlash and fainted. I’m still a little weak now. I have to recuperate.”
Xia Weishuang said, “Take your time. We need to bide our time now. It’s not suitable to act rashly. Whether it’s you, Coal Ball, or Sang Lu, your current state is not good. We are at our weakest now.”
“By the way,” Xia Weishuang remembered Zheng Boqiang and said, “I almost forgot to tell you. There’s someone downstairs…”
Wei Yunlang had been unconscious for several days and did not know about Zheng Boqiang.
“Is this person reliable?”
“I don’t know,” Xia Weishuang shook her head. “There is no eternal friendship, only eternal interests. Cooperation requires finding a balance point. This does not mean that I trust her 100%, nor does it mean that I don’t trust her at all.”
However, since Zheng Boqiang had been mentioned, Xia Weishuang simply told everyone her thoughts.
“I’m thinking, maybe I should take the initiative to go to the base,” Xia Weishuang said slowly. “There’s a saying that you can be a thief for a thousand days, but you can’t guard against a thief for a thousand days. Gu Minzhi’s target is me and Sang Lu. I’m very sorry for implicating you. I have a responsibility to solve this matter. At that time, you can stay in A City and wait for us to come back, and then we’ll deal with the disaster star together.”
Bai Qian looked up at Xia Weishuang and was about to speak when Xia Weishuang pressed her shoulder. “Sister Qian, our relationship is so strong. I won’t say any more nonsense. Coal Ball is indeed very powerful, but your situation is special. Can you leave your many children? This world is already different. It’s too dangerous. They can’t leave you.”
In fact, even in the matter of facing the disaster star, Xia Weishuang did not want Bai Qian to participate. Bai Qian herself did not have much combat power. It would be best if she could provide support from the rear. If not, then she should not be dragged into it. Her intentions were enough.
Bai Qian was speechless and even a little unhappy, but to ask her to abandon so many children and go to the base was indeed impossible.
Wei Yunlang suddenly said, “So you’re planning to go to the base? The one in B City?”
Xia Weishuang nodded. “Yes. I have to completely resolve the grudge between me and Gu Minzhi. Without any worries, we can take the next step.”
Wei Yunlang slapped his thigh and said, “Isn’t that a coincidence? The location of the disaster star I calculated is on the way.”
Xia Weishuang was taken aback. “This…”
Wei Yunlang did not wait for her to finish and interrupted, “With Sang Lu in this state, are you planning to take her to the base? Or are you going by yourself? Forget it. I’m afraid you’ll be swallowed alive by that woman if you go alone. In any case, you’re also a key force in our disaster star subjugation team. I, as the captain, have to take responsibility and watch over you.”
Xia Weishuang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “I’m not planning to go now. I want to wait until the weather is warmer before setting off.”
Wei Yunlang frowned.
Xia Weishuang said considerately, “Are you worried that if it takes too long, the disaster star will change?”
Wei Yunlang sighed. “Indeed. After I woke up, I’ve been worried about this. But originally, I had only planned to deal with It by myself. It was an unexpected surprise to have Sang Lu’s help. If she can’t act, there’s nothing I can do.”
Nine out of ten things in the world did not go as one wished. Gu Minzhi had suddenly appeared, Sang Lu was not in a good state, Coal Ball was also injured, and the disaster star had suddenly descended… The few people in the team were caught off guard by this series of accidents.
If you thought about it carefully, it seemed that everything was difficult.
Xia Weishuang pursed her lips and said, “I had predicted before that Gu Minzhi would lead a large-scale attack before the spring snow. It’s just that the snow has fallen particularly early this year… I can’t say for sure how long it will be.”
Mi Lele suddenly spoke, “Can sister take another look?”
Xia Weishuang said, “I already have the thought of going to the base. I’m afraid that fate has already changed, so I can’t see the initial danger. But you’re right. I will use my ability to observe more. Now, Yunlang and Coal Ball are both very weak. No matter what we do, let’s not be in a hurry. Let’s recuperate first.”
Mi Lele nodded steadily. “Sister is right. No matter what, let’s recuperate first.”
Wei Yunlang laughed heartily and reached out to pinch her little braid, and was glared at by Mi Lele.
“Why is a little kid like a little old man? So mature.”
Mi Lele slapped his hand away, snorted, and said, “I won’t argue with you. Anyway, I’m going with you later.”
Xia Weishuang smiled and said, “Lele, aren’t you going to keep Sister Qian company?”
Mi Lele looked at her innocently. “Sister Qian has many cats, but I only have Diandian. Besides, I’m not going with you, sister. I’m going with little brother Wolf. You can’t control me.”
The clever child had long since seen who was easy to deal with and who was difficult to deal with, and would not give the adults a chance to lecture her.
Xia Weishuang didn’t want to always talk about her either. Besides, when and how to set off had not yet been decided. So she smiled and didn’t say much, lest the child’s rebellious period come and she couldn’t get any good out of it.
**
After Wei Yunlang and Coal Ball had woken up, everything was slowly getting better, including Zheng Boqiang’s injuries.
Her injuries seemed to be nothing at all. She could even start to personally guide Xia Weishuang and the others’ fighting techniques. Her fighting techniques were ruthless and very cruel, different from Wei Yunlang’s martial arts style, which had a gentleman’s demeanor. It was more practical and efficient.
In the zombie world where survival was the top priority, what Zheng Boqiang taught was more applicable. So later, Wei Yunlang also pretended that nothing had happened and came to ask her for advice.
Then he was beaten all over.
However, Zheng Boqiang, who had recently been promoted to a teacher, had also encountered a rather troublesome matter, because she found that when she was not paying attention, her room would always be messed up.
The room was too small to teach these few students. Her teaching scene was the indoor swimming pool. At this time, she had no choice but to leave the room and go up to the seventh floor. Besides that, she would arrange some activities to restore her body every day, and would move around in the corridor.
In fact, Zheng Boqiang did not have a room key, and she did not care much about it, because there was nothing that could not be seen by others.
But she often found that the room, which had been cleaned and arranged neatly, would suddenly become a mess.
After ruling out the possibility that Wei Yunlang and Mi Lele were making trouble, Zheng Boqiang directly told Xia Weishuang about this.
Xia Weishuang was confused. Her first reaction was a conspiracy theory. “There’s such a thing? Some of the glass windows in our hotel are broken and have not been repaired. Could it be that Gu Minzhi found out that you’re not dead and sent someone to sneak in and lurk, trying to find something that is not good for her from you?”
For a moment, Zheng Boqiang was also led astray by Xia Weishuang’s conspiracy theory. “I don’t know what I have that is worth her attention.”
Xia Weishuang said, “Just in case, let’s search the hotel.”
If the other party was just a small thief and did not pose a threat, Xia Weishuang’s ability would be very limited, and she probably wouldn’t be able to see anything. It was better to just do a blanket search.
This action was both boring and a waste of time. The key was that in the end, they found nothing.
So Xia Weishuang said again, “Why don’t you move to the sixth floor?” Of course, she would not let her live in 612. It was not big enough.
Although she had been taught for many days, Xia Weishuang had never given up on observing Zheng Boqiang. If Zheng Boqiang had any ill intentions and would cause a threat, Xia Weishuang would also be able to discover it in advance.
And she had long wanted Zheng Boqiang to live closer. If she was closer, it would be more convenient to monitor her movements. She was on the second floor, and everyone was on the sixth floor. If she did something quietly downstairs, they might not be able to find out.
However, Xia Weishuang really didn’t know what was going on with the strange things in Zheng Boqiang’s room. It made people panic if it wasn’t solved.
Zheng Boqiang thought for a moment and felt that it was not bad. The second floor was too close to the ground, and she was always afraid that a mutated zombie would attack at night, which was not safe.
But who would have thought that after moving to the sixth floor and living in room 610, the strange things still did not stop, and even became more and more intense.
Zheng Boqiang went to bed normally. When she woke up, she saw that the entire room was in a mess.
The water cup on the table had rolled to the ground, and the water had spilled. The neatly arranged towels, toothbrushes, and other personal items had also fallen to the ground. The cabinet door was open, and the neatly folded clothes were scattered from the door to the windowsill. The shoes in the shoe cabinet and the slippers by the bed were all crooked.
Zheng Boqiang: “…”
It could almost be said that all the things she had tidied up after moving into the new room had all been messed up.
In the early morning, Zheng Boqiang felt her temples throbbing. She took a deep breath, and her face was particularly calm. It was impossible to tell if she was angry.
She carefully got out of bed and did not tidy up immediately, but observed the room.
Sure enough, just like before, there were no traces of footprints or other evidence.
What kind of character could commit a crime while she was sleeping and not let her find out?
Dangerous, very dangerous.
Zheng Boqiang thought for a moment, and honestly restored everything in the room. She did not say much, and her face was as usual as she continued to wash up, eat, digest, stretch, and then teach Xia Weishuang and the others…
All her actions were very regular, including the rhythm of the room being messed up.
It was another late night.
A black tail very slowly and quietly pulled open the window a crack. A soft body nimbly jumped into the room, and the soft and springy pads of its paws stepped on the carpet without making a sound.
Then, it still walked slowly and unhurriedly on its four small legs. Its long tail stretched out, hooked the cup on the table, and gently placed it on the ground without a sound.
The process was extremely skilled and very quiet. It was clear that it was a repeat offender.
The perpetrator was arrogant and bold, and skillfully began to make trouble, and proudly raised its small, furry black face.
But it did not notice that in the darkness, a pair of eyes had quietly opened…
