Chapter 72 : C72
Gu Chi’s face became serious.
That was a human being, and he was one of those disappeared ability holders.
He inspected the body carefully again, and found that beside the scars, there seemed to be some circular marks, which were small and basically distributed on the back of the neck, temples, and neck…
The clothes were a bit thinner compared to the current temperature. Other than that, there was nothing special.
Gu Chi frowned, immediately took out the communication device, and told the other team members what he found. He was ordered to temporarily shift the investigation target, and first look for similar situations.
On the other side, Song Shi avoided Lu Yunfei and went back to the corner she remembered.
She leaned against the wall, trying her best to avoid the disgusting zombies at her feet.
When she finally reached the corner and saw a tall building that was no different from other places, her original expectation dropped instantly.
She thought she would find something…
Suddenly, she heard a buzzing sound and froze.
What was that sound?
She turned her head.
It seemed to be coming from the opposite side.
Song Shi hesitated. Her current position was across the road from the opposite side, and there were corpses and bones of zombies on it. To get to the opposite side, she had to walk across that road.
She bit her lip, but decided to endure the nausea.
Looking at her clean shoes and exposed slender ankles, and comparing them with the dirty zombies, she inevitably got a little disgusted.
Stepping on the zombies and staggering across the road, the stiff corpses on the soles of her feet made her scalp numb.
Fortunately, she crossed the road.
Song Shi let out a long breath.
The sound became clearer.
She frowned and listened for a long time to decide whether if came from the left or the right side
She looked around at the tall buildings around her that were empty, but she couldn’t identify which one was the source of the sound.
Song Shi was a little disappointed.
She thought that it might be some machine beeping somewhere… It was just a sound, not anything strange.
Thinking that way, she decided to go back.
When turning around to leave, her body froze suddenly.
Something was grabbing her ankle.
Subconsciously, she kicked it away forcefully, struggling to break free from what was restraining her.
She looked down, and there was a very shallow scar on her ankle, with almost no blood coming out.
She lowered her head abruptly, looking for the thing that tripped her…
No, no.
She meditated.
Suddenly, her eyes popped open. Her body was on top of the “corpse” that was twitching in a very small range, its hands were stretched out, and its fingers were curled together in an arc, obviously just caught something.
That was an undead zombie.
Song Shi lost her soul all of a sudden, and she froze in place for a long time without moving.
She forced a smile.
It was just a scratch, she didn’t need to scare herself.
She covered her ankle with her hand, and the little scar disappeared in a few seconds.
Her lips quivered, trying to convince herself that she wasn’t hurt.
“Do you want to live?” A somewhat hoarse voice suddenly sounded, like an elderly man.
Song Shi suddenly stopped moving, and she subconsciously wanted to look behind her.
“Hehe, I advise you not to look back…”
“Who are you?”
…
As night approached, Gu Chi and the others were preparing to return to the gathering place.
“Song Shi?” Lu Yunfei didn’t see anyone after a long time, so he turned back to look for her.
“Here, here,” Song Shi came out from an alley nearby.
“Why so slow?”
“Oh, I forgot to see the time during the investigation just now, sorry.”
Lu Yunfei waved his hand, “Let’s go, don’t make everyone wait.”
At that time, in a corner of Yuhu City.
“Professor, why did you suddenly change your mind?” The man standing next to the wheelchair leaned over and asked.
That female ability holder, their original plan was to bring her back.
“Did you see it?” His voice was hoarse and vicissitudes, “Her first reaction when she was injured by a zombie…”
After panicking, first of all she hid the traces. Such people would always only put themselves first and would not pose any threats to their plans.
Additionally, she was still a member of that team.
…
Back in the car at night, they checked the clues they had found that day.
In addition to the human body that Gu Chi found, Mu Yu and Lu Yunfei also found a body in the same condition.
The degree of decay varied, but all had round red spots on their skin.
“Song Shi, what’s wrong with you?” Seeing that her body seemed to be shaking, Lin Xun asked.
Gu Chi also turned to look at her, “Are you uncomfortable?”
“Yes, a little bit.”
[The accumulative points have just exceeded two million, and the highest level reward-the virus medicine has been unlocked. Congratulations to the host.]
Chi Ying, who was listening to Gu Chi, brightened up, unable to hide her joy.
That was to say, when they go back, she would be able to hand over the medicine to the research institute.
“If you don’t feel well, go rest first,” Gu Chi said to Song Shi.
“Hmm…”

If Song Shi was willing to tell the fact that she was bitten by a zombie instead of hiding it knowing that it would bring danger to others, Chi Ying would have given her the medicine to save her.
