Home/ Stopping the Handsome and Tragic Male Lead After 404/ Chapter 43 (Part 2)

They crawled for a long time, and finally found a sewer where they could go out. Fu Miao was so tired that Fu Xuzhou was worried about her body, so he carried her on his back.

In the dark sewer, after an unknown amount of time, Shi Qin finally felt the light, and Cheng Yu saw the exit, which was a manhole cover.

Shi Qin was worried that there would be zombies up there, so he stopped Cheng Yu, and went up to investigate the situation by himself.

When he went up, he found that there were no zombies around, and this place was quite far from the artificial island, almost at the road of the city.

They quickly found a hidden house to observe the situation first, and discovered that there was still a corps team around, but it was far away from them, and they were busy going to the lake for rescue.

At this time, everyone was discussing how to split up. There was a parking lot next to them. Shi Qin and Cheng Yu planned to try their luck, as long as they had a car, they could escape smoothly. 

Yang Ping and Fu Xuzhou were on the roof of the house to monitor the road conditions, in order to prepare for the next escape.

“Unexpectedly, they didn’t abandon us to escape alone. The transaction is already over, and they don’t need to care about your life or death.” Yang Ping walked back and forth on the roof, saying with great interest.

“They are good people.” Fu Xuzhou said slowly with gratitude in his eyes.

“Yes, but it’s a pity that this is the end of the world, and good people don’t live long.” Yang Ping smiled lightly.

“Aren’t you also here? Thank you.” Fu Xuzhou looked at Yang Ping and said, “Our transaction is also over. The person they are chasing is actually me.”

“I’m leaving.” Yang Ping suddenly looked at Fu Xuzhou and said, “Thank you for your care during this time.”

Fu Xuzhou didn’t feel too disappointed, as such a situation is not unprecedented. Everyone should take care of their own lives.

But suddenly a burst of flames came out from behind Yang Ping, Fu Xuzhou took a closer look, and suddenly rushed to put out the fire in shock.

The place where the fire broke out was where he put his bag that contained the research materials brought out from the institute, including detailed information about the masking agent and research related to the mutated corpse. It is equivalent to something taken out of the Huofeng Base.

“What are you doing!” Fu Xuzhou couldn’t save it and was furious. He turned his head to look back, only to see Yang Ping pointing a gun at himself.

Fu Xuzhou’s face gradually turned frosty, “You are an awakened person, so you probably won’t catch me to receive the reward. What is your purpose in doing this?”

“I want all the research materials you brought out from Huofeng base, including your life.”

Fu Xuzhou didn’t understand, “Why? You have lived with me for a few days, and you should know that those research materials are useless, and the last bottle of masking agent has been used by Cheng Yu. Without any materials available, no one will be able to make anything? So what’s my life worth?”

“I can’t help it. Actually, I don’t want to do it either. Although I’m an awakened person, I also have feelings. After spending a few days with you, I am also a bit reluctant. However, for the sake of the mission, I can only be ruthless. I need to solve everything before Cheng Yu comes back. Rest in peace!”

Fu Xuzhou’s pupil shrank, and he couldn’t let go of his sister and Shao Yan, but at this point, there’s nothing he can do.

Suddenly there was a gunshot, and Fu Xuzhou closed his eyes, but he didn’t feel any pain. Immediately afterwards, he was held hostage by someone, and a gun was pressed against his temple.

Fu Xuzhou opened his eyes and saw Cheng Yu and Shi Qin appearing on the roof, while the hand holding him was bleeding.

The person who just shot was Cheng Yu.

Yang Ping looked at them coldly and said with a smile: “Were your hands shaking, or did you spare my life on purpose? Otherwise, do you think too highly of me or look down on me? Aren’t you just giving me a chance to kill him?”

“Whether you kill him or not has nothing to do with me.” Cheng Yu sneered, “If it can be saved, it’s fine, but if it can’t, that’s also fine. Anyway, that’s the grudge between you two, isn’t it? He can’t protect himself because he has no ability.”

Shi Qin was watching from the side, but in fact, he was in a state of confusion all this time. He followed Cheng Yu out, followed him back, and then saw this scene.

Didn’t Yang Ping stay with Fu Xuzhou for a long time and had a close relationship with him? They could at least be regarded as friends. Also, didn’t they just escape death together?

Well, he can’t solve this situation, but he will not prevent Cheng Yu from doing what he wants.

“Since it doesn’t matter, why don’t you kill me?” Yang Ping said.

“I just want to meet your teacher.” Cheng Yu said slowly.

Yang Ping’s expression changed instantly, “What did you say?”

Cheng Yu pointed to the back of his neck, “Sunflower logo, I saw it at Le Liang.”

“Oh! That little devil is not…”

Cheng Yu raised his eyebrows, and Yang Ping instantly realised that he had been provoked. He looked at Cheng Yu with a black face, “So, you already knew?”

“Not early, I saw it when we were training in the water.”

Isn’t this too early? Fuck! 

“Well, thank you for holding it in for so long.” Yang Ping said through gritted teeth.

“I just want to see what kind of people are there in your organisation, and what are they doing?”

“So, that’s why you’ve been so wary of me, then… Cheng Yu, you are really outstanding.”

Shi Qin also reacted and said, “Are you also a member of that organisation? Why are you looking for Fu Xuzhou? After all, he can be considered to have helped many awakened people. Aren’t you an organisation that helps awakened people resist those humans?”

At this time, Fu Miao, who heard the gunshots, ran up worriedly and saw Fu Xuzhou being held hostage. She immediately screamed, “What are you doing? Let go of my brother! Don’t hurt him!”

Yang Ping ignored Fu Miao, but said: “Speaking of which, I was sent here to protect people rather than harm them.”

Fu Xuzhou sneered, obviously not believing it.

“Fu Xuzhou, you have to know that you have indeed helped a lot of awakened people. Although it was a transaction, we are still grateful. Our boss, the teacher, also hoped to use your hand to help more awakened people, even if they are not members of our organisation. As you said before, the research material in your hands is actually not very useful, and it is not worth the task force’s efforts to come here to catch you, so you have always been safe.”

Yang Ping continued, “However, not long ago, the situation changed. In Huofeng base,there was a small-scale rebellion, and some laboratories were burned down, including the copies of the research materials in your hands, which means that only you have the last research material in your hands now.”

“But……”

“You want to say that even if it’s the last research material, it’s still worthless, right? But the mutated corpses began to appear on a large scale. If they want to deal with them, they must understand them first. The Huofeng Base realised that this is their best opportunity to surpass other bases, so they must find you and the relevant research materials. So you have become the number one target of the Huofeng Base.”

Fu Xuzhou’s expression gradually changed. He had been staying here all this time, completely unaware that there was such a big change outside.

“The teacher knows everything, and sent me on a mission. If I can protect you, I will protect you. If I can’t protect you, I will persuade you to move. If I can’t persuade you, I will destroy all the materials you brought out and kill you. I didn’t want to kill you and wanted to advise you to move, but unfortunately, your position was discovered by the enemy so quickly.”

After Yang Ping finished speaking, he turned to look at Fu Miao with a half-smile.

“What are you looking at me for? Why do you always suspect me? The base I’m in has nothing to do with Huofeng base. Someone else must have leaked my brother’s location, it’s probably one of those homeless awakeners.”

Yang Ping shrugged his shoulders and no longer cared about this issue.

“In the current situation, it is very difficult to protect you and get out of here alive. Since I can’t protect you, I can only kill you.”

“Kill him and then escape alone. Don’t forget that you are an awakened person, and your skills are not very powerful. Only by cooperating with us would you be able to survive.” Shi Qin sneered.

“Who said I wanted to escape alone?”

At that time, Shi Qin wondered whether this person still had a comrade hiding somewhere, but he suddenly saw Yang Ping looking straight at him, with that familiar look in his eyes…

Yang Ping suddenly laughed, “Not long ago, we received a special mission. The teacher said, if you see a cute little zombie, remember to bring it back.”

“Damn it!” Shi Qin took a few steps back, and was about to curse someone when he suddenly realised that something was wrong. Yang Ping’s eyes didn’t turn red at all.

Yang Ping also noticed the abnormality, and looked towards Shi Qin with wide eyes again.

Cheng Yu sneered, “Is that enough?”

“You!” Yang Ping was shocked. He thought that after leaving the artificial island, the jammer would no longer be there.

Cheng Yu smiled as red veins gradually climbed up in his eyes, “Do you think I would make such a mistake?”

The jammer was here, and Cheng Yu had already put it in Shi Qin’s backpack before.

“You kid, you’ve become even more powerful after becoming an awakener. Are you interested in joining us?”

“If you hadn’t attacked Shi Qin just now, I would probably think about it. But now, I just want to catch you and get to know that teacher. Why does he want to rob me!”

As soon as Cheng Yu’s voice fell, Yang Ping’s wrist began to tremble uncontrollably, controlled by Cheng Yu’s thoughts.
