He suddenly realized that perhaps Gu Ke was the first "normal" girl he met after the disaster, and her current appearance might be a normal reaction after an accident. After all, if you think about the girls in his family, none of them are normal-minded. Even Su Muhe, who looks the most normal, is actually a senior driver hidden inside.

——So, if a normal person encounters this kind of thing, how should he comfort the other person?

Of course he would not refuse to have a relationship with a beauty like Gu Ke. Before deciding to go out to rescue her, Chu Xiao naturally fantasized about the classic romantic plot of "the hero saves the beauty and pledges his life to her". However, he did not regard Gu Ke as his forbidden lover at that time, and naturally he also considered the possibility of the two of them parting ways amicably after rescuing Gu Ke.

After all, Chu Xiao’s purpose was really just to rescue a girl who was calling for help from him.

But now it’s different. The man recalled the domineering possessiveness that emerged in his heart after confirming Gu Ke’s location. At this moment, this possessiveness has completely taken root in his heart.

——She is mine!

"What's with your expression that looks like you've figured something out?" It was Gu Ke who took the initiative to break the awkward situation. She took a deep breath and said, "Forget it, let's think about what to do next."

She brushed the matter aside with just a few words, as if she didn't care about her "first experience" at all.

However, Gu Ke's voice trembled slightly, and it was obvious that she was not as indifferent as she appeared to be.

"Eat something first." Chu Xiao took out the food Zhang Zhan had given him from his bag. "You haven't eaten for a long time, and you just...consumed a lot of energy."

Gu Ke silently took the food and the water bottle, tore open the packaging and bit it viciously, as if he had a deep hatred for the bread in his hand.

"...Eat slowly, don't choke." Chu Xiao said with concern.

But Gu Ke glared at Chu Xiao, and he ate even faster. He actually choked on the bread he took. The female police officer kept hitting her chest, and she quickly gulped down a big gulp of water. Even tears came out of her eyes, and she looked extremely embarrassed.

Gu Ke's appearance made Chu Xiao unable to hold back his laughter, but after hearing Gu Ke hum loudly, he quickly closed his mouth, but he couldn't hide the twisted corners of his mouth.

"Just now...what happened just now...sister, I won't bother with you for now! I am a mature person in society! How could I care about such things! I don't take it to heart! That's right, I don't take it to heart at all! I don't take it to heart at all!" Maybe Chu Xiao's smile irritated Gu Ke, the policewoman blushed and emphasized desperately.

Gu Ke is indeed older than Chu Xiao, but only one year older. The two are actually of the same age, but Gu Ke cares a lot about her identity as "sister" and likes to emphasize it.

At this moment, a sudden childish voice broke Gu Ke's defense.

"So, this is tsundere?" A very clear child's voice came from the front seat, and a pair of moist and lively big eyes looked at the two through the seat back, "Auntie, this attribute is out of fashion now."

Chu Xiao then remembered that there was a smart little girl in the car.

Gu Ke's already flushed face turned even redder at this moment. It was unclear whether it was because of shyness or anger.

"Auntie..." She gritted her teeth and repeated, "Little girl, don't call me that casually. You have to call me sister. I am still a young girl, how can you call me auntie casually?"

Yun Duo'er tilted her head: "But you have obviously become a young woman! Just now, I saw it with my own eyes!"

Gu Ke couldn't catch her breath and almost died. When she thought of the beautiful girl in front of her who had witnessed her ugly behavior, she wanted to strangle herself to death for being so obsessed with happiness.

Chu Xiao was well aware of Yun Duo'er's ability to spray poison. When he first met this girl, he was also angered by her. Now, looking at it from a third-party perspective, it was quite interesting.

However, Yun Duoer's words completely dispelled the awkward atmosphere in the car.

Although it was quite interesting to continue watching the two beauties bickering with each other, Chu Xiao still spoke up to mediate before Gu Ke got mad: "Yun Duo'er, didn't I ask you to close your eyes just now?"

"Humph, you guys are making so much noise back there, and I'm so close, it's useless even if I close my eyes."

In fact, Gu Ke's movement was not that big, after all, Chu Xiao was lying dead the whole time, and he didn't exert any strength at all. But when Gu Ke heard it, he groaned and said madly: "Kill me."

"Okay, stop messing around." Chu Xiao's voice was heavy, "Now is not the time to relax. After a short rest, we should think about the next move."

The little relaxing farce is over, and the three will once again face the fact that they are still in danger.

The sound insulation of this car should be good. In addition, it is located in a remote corner, and Gu Ke did not make much noise, so no zombies approached from outside the car.

Chu Xiao had just recovered from the tearing pain. Although he had temporarily regained his ability to move, his combat effectiveness would not be restored in a short time. Gu Ke also needed to rest well and replenish food and water.

"Anyway, let's stay in the car and recover our strength. After that, we can go meet up with Zhang Zhan and the others and find a way to get back to the ground."

Chapter 54 Hero

Chu Xiao fell asleep in a daze, he was a little tired.

After nearly an all-night long fight, two active enhancements, and of course the ruthless exploitation by a certain woman, his ammunition reserves, which had just been restored, were emptied again. So after being temporarily safe, he soon fell into a deep sleep.

After all, they were still in a dangerous area, so Gu Ke consciously took on the responsibility of being on guard. When she was trapped before, she had been unconscious for a long time. After replenishing food and water, Gu Ke's mental state was very good now.

Yun Duoer, who was sitting in the front row, yawned, crawled from the front row to the back row, found a comfortable position in Chu Xiao's arms, and soon she began to breathe smoothly - she had only slept for a short while before, and for a little girl in elementary school, this amount of sleep was certainly not enough.

Gu Ke glanced at the delicate loli who was sleeping like a cat. At this moment, she was hugging the man's arm, her small body curled up into a ball. Although she was still very young, Gu Ke still sighed that this girl was a peerless beauty.

"She's so cute when she's silent..." Gu Ke muttered. As an adult, she would not stand up to a little girl with a sharp tongue. Although she looked a little embarrassed just now, Gu Ke had already made up her mind to regain her dignity as an adult in front of this girl in the future!

——In the future…?

The woman suddenly grasped a word in her mind, like a drop of water falling into the lake of her heart, and her thoughts could not help but spread out.

Gu Ke couldn't help but turn his eyes to Chu Xiao's quiet sleeping face. The man was sleeping very soundly, with his brows furrowed, as if he was carrying a heavy pressure even in his sleep.

She slowly approached him, and by the time she realized it, she realized that her fingers had already gently touched the man's face. After a day and night of neglect, his chin had grown stubble, which made the woman feel a little prickly.

The corners of Gu Ke's mouth slowly curled up into a faint smile, and his expression gradually softened.

"I didn't look closely until now, but it turns out you're quite handsome."

Before they actually met, Gu Ke had never known what "Lantern Festival Lantern" looked like, but the moment she saw him, she was sure that the man in front of her was the one who listened to her call for help on the phone. Perhaps, she really hoped that the man connected to the other end of the network would turn from virtual to real and become her hero in a moment of crisis.

For Gu Ke, the first offline dating in her life was so thrilling and so romantic. Few women could refuse such a romantic encounter. From the treacherous ground to the dark and terrifying underground, it was as if crossing the boundary between life and death, this man broke in abruptly.

"I didn't expect that I would also be saved by a hero..." Gu Ke observed Chu Xiao's face carefully, and the smile on his lips became harder and harder to hide. "It feels not bad."

There seemed to be some heat in her body that had not yet dissipated. Her mind moved slightly, and she immediately felt a tingling sensation in her lower abdomen.

She suddenly felt her cheeks burning, and the tattered clothes on both sides reminded her of what she had done before.

"It felt a little painful, but it's not bad." Gu Ke was glad that she was already asleep and he couldn't see her slightly savoring expression. He thought quietly, "It's a pity that it was too hasty. It's not perfect as a first experience. Next time I have to experience it properly to see if it's the same as what the book says..."

"Ahhh, what am I thinking about! What 'later', 'next time'? Am I the kind of girl who has been fucked by someone... No, am I the kind of girl who has to be bound to someone after I fuck him? Is this the time to think about that kind of thing?" After Gu Ke realized what she was thinking, she quickly shook her head, as if to shake off the pink thoughts in her head, "...but we did it so many times just now, and I ejaculated inside him. The amount was so large, will I get shot... What should I do if I get shot... Will he think I'm a casual woman... Ahhh! Stop thinking about this kind of thing! I don't care about boys or girls!"

After a long storm in his head, Gu Ke finally sighed as if giving up, glanced at the sleeping man, and had to admit that his mind was full of him at the moment, and he couldn't calm down to think about other things.

"This time, even if I lose, I lose completely to you." She chuckled, shining like a flower blooming in the darkness, her eyes as gentle as water. Then, Gu Ke leaned over carefully and pecked Chu Xiao lightly on the lips.

"What just happened doesn't count. This is my first kiss." She whispered in the sleeping man's ear, as if to engrave these words into his heart. "Have a good rest. 'The hero will come to save me as long as I cry'..."

She didn’t know if it was her illusion, but the sleeping face of the man in front of her seemed to soften a little, and his furrowed brows relaxed.

……

In the shelter, Zhou Wanmeng confirmed that there was no one he was following and came to a hidden room in the shelter.

There was an elegant and graceful woman in a red dress in the room. Looking at that beautiful star face, Zhou Wanmeng felt like an ugly duckling.

She had never thought that there would be a day when she would work with Wang Manyi.

"What's the situation outside?" Wang Manyi asked softly. Her face did not look good, with a kind of pale beauty.

After what happened last night, Wang Manyi knew very well that she had seen something she shouldn't have seen. Two consecutive betrayals were enough for Sun Baishi to get rid of her. So, after leaving the West District, she immediately decided to find a place to hide and plan the follow-up, but she happened to run into the flustered Zhou Wanmeng.

With Wang Manyi's intelligence, she easily guessed from Zhou Wanmeng's expression when she saw her that the traitor who helped Chu Xiao was the girl in front of her. But Wang Manyi didn't want to do anything to her. On the contrary, she proposed cooperation to Zhou Wanmeng. Thus, two women who had no connection at all but shared the same tragic fate came together.

"Sun Baishi didn't show up, but he has issued a warrant for your arrest from the West District, dead or alive." Zhou Wanmeng's expression was a little strange. "Also, the new director of the 'breeding farm' has been confirmed over there."

"Who is it?" Wang Manyi asked casually, already thinking about how to do something under the nose of the new supervisor.

"……it's me."

Even someone as shrewd as Wang Manyi couldn't help but widen her eyes at this moment: "Why is it you?"

"It's me. I'm not kidding." Zhou Wanmeng looked more frightened than surprised. "I also want to know why this hat fell on my head. I'm not a cadre of your group, nor a confidant of any big shot. I'm just... a slave girl of a dirty monster..."

Wang Manyi calmed down first and probably guessed the reason why Sun Baishi made such an arrangement: "He probably did this to prevent the emergence of another 'me'..."

(ps: "A hero will come to save me as long as I cry", I think it's a line from "A Certain Magical Index", I can't remember the details.)

Chapter 55 Cooperation

Wang Manyi was appointed as the supervisor because she had been with Sun Baishi for many years and had great prestige among his subordinates. She was also smart and could be used to suppress Chen Zhiyun and his gang to prevent the shelter from getting out of control. But now, the police had been dealt with by Sun Baishi, and most of Wang Manyi's subordinates had died in the previous conflict.

Therefore, for Sun Baishi, Wang Manyi has lost her usefulness, and a dangerous woman with ambition and intelligence will naturally become an eyesore.

Now that the shelter has been turned into a "breeding farm", those poor survivors are no longer treated as human beings. Sun Baishi only needs to ensure that these people can survive and provide enough materials for his experiments.

In this case, management costs dropped sharply. Sun Baishi did not need someone with sufficient prestige and ability to manage the company. He only needed an obedient tool.

"After most of the original managers died in the conflict, Sun Baishi didn't have many people he could use in the farm. The remaining ones were not even good enough. Even though you are young, you are a student of Yuntai High School. Just based on this fact, you are already labeled as 'excellent'. Therefore, it is not so unimaginable for Sun Baishi to let you be the supervisor."

Zhou Wanmeng smiled bitterly and said, "A high school student supervisor... Is this considered a quick ascension to heaven?"

"Of course, it's not just this reason... I don't need to say much about what image you have in most people's minds. You are too young, so if you want to manage this farm well, you must rely on Sun Baishi's power. Under this premise, you can't cultivate a group of confidants like I did." Wang Manyi poured herself a glass of water and slowly analyzed for Zhou Wanmeng.

"Doesn't that Sun Baishi still have some power in his hands?" Zhou Wanmeng was referring to those cold-looking guys in black.

"Although I haven't figured out where that group of people came from, their main job should be to protect the laboratory in the west area. To Sun Baishi, that place is much more important than the farm here. After being invaded by outsiders twice in a row, he naturally won't invest too much of his important forces in the farm."

After saying this, Wang Manyi looked at Zhou Wanmeng deeply and said, "This is a good thing for you. After all, since you are assigned to be the supervisor, you don't have to be a toy for that monster for the time being, so..."

Wang Manyi paused for a moment, crossed her legs, and revealed her white thighs at the crotch. She looked like she was smiling, "What are you going to do, Manager Zhou?"

Her meaning was very clear. Zhou Wanmeng could obviously hand over Wang Manyi now, and that would become the credit of the newly appointed "Manager Zhou".

Zhou Wanmeng stared at Wang Manyi's face without any hesitation: "Don't joke, if I wanted to hand you over, I wouldn't be the one coming to find you now."

"I want revenge, I want to live, teach me, what should I do!" At this moment, Zhou Wanmeng's eyes were burning with black flames, as if they could burn everything.

Wang Manyi smiled happily: "Great, then our cooperation can continue. I have a few names here, remember them and go find them."

These people were Wang Manyi's former subordinates who had luckily survived the conflict. They didn't have much ability, but at least their loyalty was guaranteed.

"Sister, the first thing I want to teach you is that in this world... No, no matter in the past or now, nothing has changed." The woman's eyes flickered, like a wounded venomous snake hiding in a dark corner to heal quietly, waiting for the opportunity to recover. "If you want to survive, you must master the power, master your own power!"

……

It was so dark underground that the sense of time became very vague.

Chu Xiao opened his eyes, and the scene in front of him gradually became clearer from blurry. His temples ached severely, probably because he didn't get enough rest.

The scene in front of me was almost unchanged from before I fell asleep. It was still that dark and closed car, with a cute little angel in my arms, still sleeping soundly.

"Are you awake?" Gu Ke's calm voice came to my ears.

"Yeah." Chu Xiao tried to sit up straight and wanted to pull his arm out of Yun Duo'er's arms, but the little girl held her tightly. Because he didn't want to disturb her sleep, Chu Xiao could only give up temporarily and asked habitually, "How long have I slept?"

"It's not a short time, but I don't know exactly how long it was. My phone is out of battery." Gu Ke raised the phone in his hand which had a black screen.

Chu Xiao took out his mobile phone from his arms. He was lucky as the screen of the phone could still light up, but the battery was already running low. As if it had fulfilled its last responsibility, after Chu Xiao checked the time, the phone automatically turned off.

"It's almost afternoon..." He muttered, thinking that he might not be able to make it in time for the appointment with his sister and others.

Chu Xiao felt a headache when he thought about the actions that group of highly motivated girls might take if he lost contact.

"Didn't you get enough rest?" Chu Xiao shook his head, trying to get rid of the dizziness from sleeping for a long time.

"I slept too long before and couldn't fall asleep." Gu Ke smiled and his face had returned to calm.

Chu Xiao noticed some changes in Gu Ke. The feeling of weakness had completely disappeared, and her complexion had improved a lot. The skin on her face even had a round and pearly translucent feeling. Her clothes were still a little torn, but it was obvious that she had been well cleaned up. The feeling of confidence and strength returned to her.

"What are you doing? You're staring at me." Gu Ke's face flushed for a moment, but she hid it well and immediately turned to teasing, "Are you obsessed with my beauty?"

Chu Xiao smiled and said, "I just feel that your complexion has improved a lot. Obviously there is no change, but it seems that there has been a big change..."

This was nonsense without any beginning or end, but Gu Ke understood it immediately.

"Indeed, I felt it too. I didn't expect to recover so quickly. I thought I would be weak for a long time, but after just a short rest, I almost fully recovered."

Neither of them could guess the reason, so they could only put it aside for the time being. However, Gu Ke was able to recover in a short period of time, which would be of great help to the current situation no matter what.

It was very quiet outside the car, with no sign of zombies or mutants.

Gu Ke told Chu Xiao that she had explored the area around the car while he was asleep, and found the shoes she had lost earlier. There weren't many zombies around here, and although there were some lone zombies, Gu Ke easily killed them. She guessed that this was because Chu Xiao had killed a lot of zombies before.

She was very curious about the source of Chu Xiao's abnormal power, because based on what she knew so far, the enhancement brought by the virus was not as good as his.

Chu Xiao briefly introduced his active in-depth strengthening skills: "...To put it simply, it is to imagine that there is a balance in your body, and then move the weights to make the 'balance' tilt to one side..."

What he said was a bit abstract, but this is a very abstract thing, so it is impossible to be specific.

After hearing this, Gu Ke tried several times as Chu Xiao said, but failed. Although Chu Xiao thought that this ability should not be considered special among the crowd, Gu Ke felt that it was not that simple.

"Can you still use this ability in the near future?" Gu Ke asked.
