Early the next morning, the team was up and about. They washed and cleaned themselves up, preparing for a new journey.
It’s just that none of them expected that it was the government’s special forces who greeted them.
When the special forces dressed in bulletproof uniforms and armed with guns surrounded the six-person group, Qi Yan’s face turned pale and his heart cried out.
“Hey, what are you doing?” Xiao Tian was stunned: “Is this place only allowed to entrances and not exit? We went out to save you food!”
“That’s right, what the hell do you do? If I want to fight, I may not lose!”
Yang Zhi saw that the other party was aggressive and stopped Dacheng and Xiao Tian out loud.
“What’s the matter with you guys?” Yang Zhi looked at the leading special forces.
The special forces swept around, passed Yang Zhi and the others, and finally set their sights in the direction of Qi Yan and Kang Ye.
“Take that man away!”
As soon as the words fell, several special forces grabbed Kang Ye and quickly handcuffed Kang Ye’s hands with handcuffs.
“What are you doing?!” Yang Zhi became anxious all of a sudden. He had already lowered his posture just now, that didn’t mean they could catch their brothers at will!
Jiang Dacheng and Xiao Tian went to help, but the next second they were blocked in place by the black muzzle. Long Sheng’s expression was cold and he was vigilant on the side. If a real fight broke out, he would help anytime, anywhere.
Kang Ye did not resist, perhaps he was shocked by the sudden arrest, or perhaps he knew the reason for his arrest. He looked up at Qi Yan and found that Qi Yan’s eyes were grim.
A bad premonition hit his heart. Kang Ye was not a fool either, he did not resist, but shouted at Yang Zhi and the others.
“I’m fine!” As the words fell, Kang Ye turned his gaze to Qi Yan’s direction and said word for word: “I will be fine.”
Qi Yan was startled, he saw the worry in Kang Ye’s eyes, and he knew it in his heart.
If the people in the team help at this moment, they were likely to be taken away as zombies. Qi Yan himself was certainly indifferent, but the team was not only himself, but also the captain and the others.
They were all in the end times hoping for survival, Qi Yan couldn’t implicate others because of his and Kang Ye’s own affairs.
He didn’t know how he spoke, Qi Yan’s voice trembled and he said coldly: “Everyone don’t bother, Kang Ye will be fine.”
His heart was as painful and unbearable like being cut by a knife, just like when Yang Zhi was helpless but had to order him to leave when he was at the gas station.
Qi Yan looked at Kang Ye who was taken away, his eyebrows frowned, a stream of heat rushed to his eyes, the tip of his nose was sore, and his throat was also sore. This feeling of wanting to cry but not being able to cry was really uncomfortable.
Others might not know, but Qi Yan knew best why Kang Ye was taken away.
“Qi Yan…” Yang Zhi came to Qi Yan’s side and patted him on the shoulder comfortingly: “Although I don’t know what the government’s purpose is, I believe Kang Ye will be fine.”
“Yeah, yeah, don’t worry too much. If it doesn’t work out, we’ll get him out! When the time comes to run to another place, who would dare to risk being eaten by zombies and catch us?”
“Why don’t we go and get Kang Ye back now! Lao Tzu is upset when he sees those high officials!”
“Dacheng, don’t be impulsive.”
No matter what they said, Qi Yan just looked in the direction where Kang Ye was taken away in silence.
Yang Zhi sighed, they hadn’t had time to worry about Kang Ye yet, Qi Yan’s state was enough to make people worry.
Qi Yan didn’t know what went wrong. It stood to reason that away from Su Cancan, Kang Ye’s identity as a zombie would not be exposed… But now it was still exposed, which meant that the original plot was still going on.
In the next plot, Kang Ye would be taken to the underground laboratory in Hope City for an inhumane experiment.
If it had been in the past, Qi Yan would not be so worried. But now, he didn’t want Kang Ye to go through that.
His eyes sank slightly, Qi Yan seemed to have made up some determination. He turned around, faced the rest of the team, and said solemnly: “Go back to the house, I have something to tell you.”
The four of them glanced at each other and followed Qi Yan in unison, returning to the private house that belonged to them.
After entering the door, Qi Yan locked the door and blocked all the curtains. The others were very puzzled by his actions and they didn’t understand what he was going to say that was so mysterious.
Qi Yan’s face was gloomy and his expression, which had been gentle and elegant, was extremely serious at the moment.
“You may not be able to accept what I said next, but this is a fact, and this is why Kang Ye was taken away.” After a few seconds of silence, Qi Yan met the puzzled gaze of the others.
“Kang Ye is a zombie.”
……
A weird silence filled the surrounding air, as if it was restraining the flow of air and suffocating everyone.
“Qi Yan…” Yang Zhi didn’t know how to deal with Qi Yan’s words since it was so unbelievable. He licked his dry lips and said, “Don’t make such a joke…”
Everyone in the squad hates zombies to the bone.
Yang Zhi’s wife and daughter, because he didn’t rush back in time, left only bones after being eaten by the infected neighbors; Jiang Dacheng’s parents were attacked by swarms of zombies on the way to escape; although Long Sheng was not close to his family, he still couldn’t tolerate the huge family dying in the zombie riot; Xiao Tian’s friends, they didn’t even know where they died anymore.
Qi Yan’s words made everyone’s hearts sink, unable to recover from these sudden words.
Qi Yan couldn’t bear it, but continued: “It’s true…Captain. Kang Ye is not a bitten zombie, but an infected zombie. However, he has thoughts and cognition, remembers his previous things, and knows what to do and what not to do.”
“It’s just that he has no heartbeat. Kang Ye was also at a loss. He didn’t know what to do. He walked everywhere, hoping to find the same kind that had undergone the same transformation as him but still had a soul, but found it in vain.”
“He chose Su Cancan because he wanted to have a goal to live. And now, he chose me and our team.”
“I’m telling you this because I want to get Kang Ye out.”
“It’s just me, you don’t have to participate.”
“Get out of here and get rid of us.”
Qi Yan’s smile suddenly became bitter, he looked at Yang Zhi and said in a shallow voice:
“This time, don’t wait for us in the town ahead.”
Qi Yan’s original intention was to let them clear their relationship with Kang Ye.
There was no need to involve these innocent people. Qi Yan was not sure what the ending would be, because this was not an ordinary world, but an apocalyptic world full of zombies.
If you could walk alone, you would be safe alone.
Leave the rest to Qi Yan himself.
—-Kang Ye, wait for me.
