At four in the morning, the two returned to Baoli Villa smoothly.
Xu Qian got out of the car. Cheng Liangqing lowered his gaze and stopped her, "Thank you, Xu Qian."
His face was pale, his voice hoarse, and he looked utterly dejected. Before she could reply, he went back into the small Western-style building filled with pink flowers.
A moment later, the sound of digging earth came from nearby.
Xu Qian lowered her gaze, concealing the expression in her eyes, and pried open the villa door.
The three people in the living room were just as they were when they left.
Xu Qian's face was grim, and the pain in her foot grew stronger. She endured the agony and intended to return to her room to clean her wounds.
Her room was next to Mei Yuebai's. As she passed, his door was wide open.
She paused, then walked into his room. The person who should have been drunk was nowhere to be found.
[Open Map.]
Zooming out, there were no purple figures nearby.
[Open Bronze Mirror.]
The bronze mirror was dark. She couldn't check the target's information, meaning Mei Yuebai was more than 10 kilometers away. Xu Qian immediately opened her character profile. Mei Yuebai's location was displayed in… F City.
Blood rushed to her face.
Xu Qian's eyelashes trembled slightly. She quickly ran downstairs and jumped into the RV. He must have realized she had gone out and followed her, but the key was that he had lost her. kuAiδugg
Gu Qing heard the car start and vaguely opened his eyes. Seeing Xu Qian starting the car, he got up and ran out, "Sister Qian, where are you going?"
Xu Qian's face was grim, her voice stiff. "I'm going to find Mei Yuebai. You guys stay here. We'll be back as soon as possible."
Driving from night to dawn, they finally reached the outskirts of F City.
Xu Qian raised her hand and pressed her throbbing head. She opened the bronze mirror and map to check. There were still no purple figures nearby. The character profile did not have a specific address. She could only choose to wander around F City and try her luck.
As the vehicle entered the city, the map and bronze mirror displayed simultaneously: Mei Yuebai, he was in a hospital.
Xu Qian's eyes darkened. Why would he go to a hospital?
As for the bronze mirror, it was dark, as if it were broken.
[Ding, the system tools will not malfunction. Target 2 is in a dark place.]
Xu Qian's heart tightened, her brow twitching. She floored the accelerator.
Ten minutes later, they arrived at the hospital.
The hospital was one of the places with the highest number of zombies, comparable to a school. In the apocalypse, no one dared to go there except for missions.
Countless zombies roamed outside.
Xu Qian jumped out of the car, put the RV into her spatial storage, secured her knife on her back, and stepped through the hospital's glass doors.
Innumerable zombies surrounded her, but within a one-meter radius around her, no zombies approached. The zombies seemed to not sense her presence and continued to wander.
She was protected by a peace buckle, which could prevent Level 1 zombies from getting close.
Xu Qian narrowed her eyes and calmly walked through the zombie horde towards the direction of the purple figure.
There were even more zombies in the inpatient building, almost filling the entire hall.
Xu Qian climbed the stairs to the second floor of the inpatient department. She raised an eyebrow. The iron gate between the first and second floors was locked.
She took out a black clip and successfully pried the door open.
Stepping onto the second floor, a hint of surprise flashed in Xu Qian's eyes. This second floor was spotless, with not a single zombie, a stark contrast to the crowded first floor.
She drew her knife and decapitated a few zombies that were about to go upstairs, then closed the door again.
Xu Qian's dark eyes narrowed. She scanned left and right. The inpatient building was a long corridor, with about 20 rooms per floor. The white walls were covered with encouraging messages. A closer look revealed that this floor was the inpatient ward for cancer patients.
There was no one in the corridor, but laughter could be heard from the adjacent rooms. As she walked, she glanced at the small windows of the rooms. Old people were playing chess, children were dancing inside, and ladies were quietly reading on their hospital beds.
This place felt like a real hospital.
