Ji Thrush looked down at his watch.

When Annie told the information about the vaccine and the adopted son, the progress bar on his watch obviously moved forward a little bit.

What does this mean

——According to Ji Thrush's experience, this means that either the vaccine or the adopted child, or both, is a key clue that can directly affect the progress of the "world", and must not be ignored!

Moreover, he faintly felt that there seemed to be contradictions everywhere in Annie's confession just now.

The little boy named "Su Lin" was not Anne's biological son. To some extent, the existence of this child was an extremely heavy bondage and burden to her who was still young and beautiful.

Ji Thrush is a nineteen-year-old chicken, not to mention starting a family and raising offspring. He has been concentrating on archery since middle school, and he has never even touched a girl's little hand.

He tried to put himself into the same situation, and made up his mind with difficulty. He only felt that if it were him, he would never be willing to raise a son born to his husband and another woman, let alone that child. He was seriously ill and couldn't even walk.

However, in Anne's own statement, she did raise and take care of the child for seven or eight years, and made a huge sacrifice for this, and the original intention of sending him to the research institute was also to treat his illness.

But Anne seemed to know that the experiments being conducted by the institute were very dangerous, otherwise she would not have received the vaccine in advance, so why would she send her paralyzed adopted son into such a dangerous situation

Ji Thrush admitted that based on his current experience, it was really difficult for him to understand Annie's thoughts, and he couldn't judge at all, whether this woman did what she did for the sake of that child

Just when Ji Thrush was distracted for a little while, everyone's question came back to the vaccine itself.

"The vaccine is a light blue needle tube, which was secretly brought out by the supervisor in a refrigerated suitcase, and then he personally slapped it on for me. There is indeed a label printed on the needle tube, which seems to be a string of numbers or serial numbers, but what is it? I really didn't notice..."

Faced with multiple aggressive questions, Annie answered while trying to recall:

"The injection port is shaped like five needles. After the injection, the wound will be red and swollen, leaving a scar..."

She pointed to her arm, "Just like what you saw just now."

Everyone listened carefully, and silently wrote down the characteristics of the vaccine.

From now on, in order to survive in this "world", the living people in this room will all become competitors with each other in terms of vaccines.

After asking about the information she wanted, Rose put Annie aside and began to rummage through the information room.

She wants to find the floor plan of the lab.

"Both of you, go check your computer."

She said to Ji Thrush and Ren Jianmo:

"The computer requires researcher permissions, and only your 'identity' can browse."

She emphasized the pronunciation of the word "identity", and after hinting, she turned her head away, and then rummaged through the file cabinet to find it.

Ji Thrush and Ren Jianmo came to the computer and swiped the computer system with their ID cards.

While turning on the phone, he looked back at Annie.

He saw that the chestnut-haired woman was ordered by Rose not to approach anything in the room, and could only stand alone in the farthest corner.

Annie, who was originally quite beautiful, now has disheveled hair and covered her eyes like weeds, making it difficult to see her expression clearly. However, the thumb of her left hand was stuffed in her mouth, and she unconsciously kept biting her nails, obviously quite anxious.

-correct!

Ji Thrush suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and realized that something was wrong from just now.

"Hey."

Taking advantage of his bent posture when turning on the phone, he gently tugged at Ren Jianmo's sleeve.

"You think, she..."

Xiaoniao rolled his eyes, and from the corner of his eye indicated that he was referring to Anne in the corner, then lowered his voice and muttered softly:

"Why does she have to go back to the institute with us?"

Ren Jianmo looked down at Ji Thrush.

From his current point of view, Ji Thrush's dog eyes with slightly drooping eyes are round and round, with black and big pupils, which looks really pleasing.

Ren Jianmo pursed his lips and subconsciously rubbed the fingers hanging by his side.

For a moment, he really wanted to reach out and rub the silly wool curls on the kid's head vigorously.

He lowered his head, his eyes seemed to be focused on the computer screen, his lips pressed against the top of Ji Thrush's head, and he answered softly: "Looking for someone."

As he breathed out, a handful of hairs on the little bird's forehead were blown up.

"Ok!"

Ji Thrush didn't notice Ren Jianmo's little prank on him at all, his eyes lit up immediately.

"Yes, I thought so too!"

He recalled the quarrel between Anne and the pastor that he had heard late last night.

Thinking about it now, the pastor probably knew that Anne wanted to come to the research institute to find his missing adopted son, but the pastor thought that the child was probably hopeless, so there was no need to waste time on him, and Anne pointed out that the pastor had the vaccine in hand, but Hiding it and refusing to take it out is not a kind thing at all, and everyone has their own selfishness, so there is no need to blame each other.

After figuring out the whole trick, Ji Thrush looked back at the chestnut-haired woman standing in the corner.

He didn't know if Annie was really just as she said, just a simple cook who had never been in the experimental area. However, if she really wanted to find her adopted son, then this mother might be worried that if they If he really found the floor plan of the institute, he would no longer need her at all, and he would probably go straight to the core area where the Luna Stone was hidden, so he wouldn't waste time looking for the missing child for her.

For some reason, Ji Thrush felt a little bit regretful towards Annie.

But reason told him immediately that the little boy could not be alive.

In other words, it is impossible to "live" in human form.

There are wandering monsters everywhere, and even researchers who have been vaccinated in advance cannot escape the fate of dying in the mouth of monsters.

Even for healthy adults, it is impossible for a seven or eight-year-old paralyzed child to survive for half a month in a research institute where biohazard broke out.

"look."

At this time, Ren Jianmo suddenly spoke, "I found it."

He clicked on the computer screen.

Ji Thrush's eyes lit up, and he rushed over immediately.

Sure enough, he saw a floor plan of the research institute unfolded on the computer screen.

"With this, it will be much more convenient."

As Ren Jianmo said, he raised his hand and stroked Ji Thrush's head, seemingly unintentionally wiping off the little curly hair that he had blown up just now.

&&& &&& &&&

With the floor plan of the institute, everyone quickly decided on the next course of action.

This institute has a total of two floors, which are A1, A2 on the upper floor and B1, B2 on the lower floor. They are respectively responsible for two categories of physical experiments and biochemical experiments. In addition, there is also an experimental animal center. And computer centers and other logistics areas.

Of course, the floor plan will not indicate which experimental area is doing what experiment, and naturally there is no way to know where the only Luna Stone that can lead the survivors out of this ghost place is.

But after knowing the internal structure of the building, it is much better than wandering around with your eyes closed.

The area they are in now belongs to the B2 area, but there is still a distance from the core laboratories, and there are many monsters wandering around the door. It is quite risky to break out directly.

At this time, Mr. Dagen, who used to spend a lot of time in the laboratory, first thought of a solution.

"What if we don't go through the door?"

Mo Tiangen suddenly stretched out his hand and tapped on the screen, then raised his hand again, and pointed to the ceiling:

"How about we go through the air duct?"

"Ventilation duct?"

Rose raised her head with his fingers, then her eyes lit up, she turned her head and lay on the computer screen, and exclaimed in surprise:

"That's right! The ventilation duct system is connected, and it is indeed much safer than walking on the ground!"

Ji Thrush and the remaining soldier also felt that this plan was feasible.

Ren Jianmo did not express his opinion immediately.

After studying the map carefully, he finally nodded.

So Mr. Dagen pulled the table under the air vent, climbed up, and disassembled the baffle in three times, five times and two times. With a strong arm, a standard two-handed upper bar movement, he flipped up.

Everyone imitated his actions, entered the vent one by one, and crawled forward along the pipe.

On this level, there is an animal center.

You can guess from the name that this place must be a place for breeding and raising experimental animals.

Anyone who has watched movies and played games knows a common sense, that is, in any world view based on Resident Evil, the place where experimental animals gather is definitely a very high-risk area.

Different from humans, if these small things are also infected by viruses, the attack power after mutation may not be comparable to the monsters transformed by humans, but they are small in size, fast in speed, and pervasive.

In the case of not being vaccinated, the result of being bitten by them is only a dead end, which is really as dangerous as it is.

So they prefer to take a long detour, enter the central experimental area from the periphery, and avoid the animal center.

The floor plan in the computer cannot be taken away, it can only be memorized by the head.

Fortunately, Mo Tiangen, who crawled to the front and led the way, was not the kind of stupid big man with well-developed limbs and a simple mind.

He has a pretty good memory and a good sense of direction.

A group of people huddled in the ventilation duct that could barely allow one person to crawl through, and crawled forward cautiously with both hands and feet, trying not to make any noise as much as possible, so as not to disturb the wandering monsters who didn't know where.

In narrow and cramped places, people's space feels oppressed, and the sense of time becomes distorted and unreal.

At first, Ji Thrush was still counting silently in his heart.

But soon, his elbows and knees hurt badly, and the numbers in his mind became messed up. He gave up this useless distraction, just gritted his teeth, focused, and let himself follow Mo Behind Tiangen, move forward step by step...

"It should be almost here."

After a while, Teacher Dagen stopped, huddled in the small passage, reluctantly turned his head, "If I'm not mistaken, it's probably here..."

Ji Thrush actually wants to ask, how did you make sure

But he was already so tired that even panting for breath felt his chest was tight, so he could only say softly:

"Then, open it... and have a look."

Mo Tiangen swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then slowly and slowly removed a baffle in front of him.

The author has something to say:

Ren Xiansen: Phew, wool rolls are so fun!

Ji Xiaoniao:? ?
