I am in the last days, I can connect to reality

While changing clothes, Qin Zhong kept thinking about the fact that Xiao Yingyong's consciousness was being manipulated. This matter didn't seem simple at all, but for a moment, Qin Zhong didn't know how to solve it.

After all, he had searched this neighborhood several times, and apart from the empty houses and some corpses in the grass, there seemed to be nothing unusual here.

But even in such a seemingly normal community, there is always a strange feeling. Even Xiao Yingyong was caught and almost got into trouble.

"It seems...I shouldn't have woken her up!"

After changing his clothes, Qin Zhong suddenly thought that he should not have disturbed Xiao Yingyong before. He should have stayed with her and seen where she would go in the end.

But at that time, Qin Zhong was a little worried and distracted. He just wanted to rescue Xiao Yingyong as soon as possible and ignored these things, which made things more troublesome.

In fact, Qin Zhong was not afraid of fighting zombies or even mutant beasts, but the situation like now was the most troublesome. He had searched almost every corner of the community before, but still found nothing.

Fighting with an unknown enemy is the most uncomfortable thing. If you can't find where the enemy is, no matter how powerful you are, you can only sigh deeply.

When Qin Zhong returned to the dining room, Xiao Yingyong had already drunk a bowl of ginger soup, was sweating, and his face had become rosy. It seemed that he would not catch a cold.

After all, she is now an evolver and has awakened the super power of fire, so she should not get sick so easily.

The atmosphere was a bit depressing during the meal. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that it was definitely not normal for Xiao Yingyong to go out this time, but everyone wisely didn't ask any more questions.

After dinner, Qin Dian lit a cigarette, was silent for a moment, and then cryptically reminded: "Everyone, be careful tonight! Be more careful! Don't act alone!"

Although Qin Zhong said it lightly, everyone's faces became solemn. Everyone was a little frightened, as if they felt that something might happen at night.

Even the carefree Gou Xiaoxiao noticed the problem. She thought of Xiao Yingyong's sudden disappearance and couldn't help but glance at Xiao Yingyong, but got no answer.

The only one who was truly calm was Chi Xinru. In her mind, she was Qin Zhong's woman after all. As long as he was there, she didn't need to worry too much.

Looking at the performance of others, Qin Zhong sighed in his heart, but he didn't blame them. They were just ordinary people, and without strength they had no confidence.

Unlike me, I have seen all kinds of scenes and survived many life-and-death struggles. This little pressure is nothing.

After dinner, Qin Zhong and Xiao Yingyong whispered to each other for a long time. When it was time to go to bed at night, Xiao Yingyong slept alone in a newly pitched tent, which aroused everyone's suspicion.

As night fell, Qin Zhong ordered those who did not need to be on duty to close the wooden door of the basement tightly, and asked everyone to get into the tents and lie down in their sleeping bags early, but no one knew whether they could sleep.

In the basement, Qin Zhong was also lying in his sleeping bag, his eyes closed and breathing evenly, while Chi Xinru, who was lying next to him, tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.

Looking at Qin Zhong lying beside her, she decided not to sleep anymore. She sat up from her sleeping bag and whispered, "Why don't you say something? What's going on?"

Qin Zhong, who had originally closed his eyes, suddenly opened them: "Shh, don't talk, there's movement."

……

Just as Chi Xinru was about to ask what happened, she heard some movement in the basement. She quickly held her breath, her heart pounding. The basement was pitch black, and she was still in the tent, so she couldn't see what was happening outside.

It was not until Qin Zhong quietly opened the curtain that she saw a dark shadow emerging from a tent not far from them.

Chi Xinru looked closely and saw that the black shadow moved stiffly and staggered like a zombie. Seeing such a strange scene in the darkness, Chi Xinru felt the hairs on her back stand on end.

At that moment, she covered her mouth tightly, afraid of screaming out, with a glint of fear in her eyes. Then, as if remembering something, she hurriedly picked up the pistol, but was stopped by Qin Zhong: "This is Xiao Yingyong, don't shoot."

Chi Xinru was slightly stunned, then breathed a sigh of relief, but Qin Zhong's next words almost made her scream again.

"She seems to be controlled by something. Don't disturb her. Let's see where she will go." Qin Zhong had thought about it before. During the day, he was too concerned and disturbed the controlled Xiao Yingyong, which led to the interruption of the clue.

While eating, Qin Zhong kept thinking about whether he could go fishing again.

So, after dinner, he found Xiao Yingyong and asked her to set up a tent and sleep alone to see if the fish would take the bait. As long as the fish dared to bite the hook, he would be able to find the culprit sooner or later by following Xiao Yingyong.

Xiao Yingyong seemed to be able to see in the dark. Although she moved slowly, she was able to accurately avoid obstacles every time and walked towards the stairs to the basement step by step. Her heavy footsteps were particularly clear in the darkness.

"Hey, there's another one." When Xiao Yingyong was about to walk out of the basement, before Qin Zhong could get up and chase after him, he saw another figure staggering to his feet in the darkness. It was Gou Xiaoxiao.

At this moment, Qin Zhong suddenly felt that the entire basement seemed to be filled with a cold atmosphere, making people feel cold all over.

As the wooden door of the basement was opened by Xiao Yingyong, except for Qin Zhong and Chi Xinru, Wang Boshen, Zhou Luosen and Shi Dajin were not spared. They stood up with empty eyes as if sleepwalking, and staggered out of the basement following Xiao Yingyong.

Seeing these scenes, Chi Xinru's face turned pale, her forehead was covered with cold sweat, and she grabbed Qin Zhong with both hands with a sense of mission.

The unknown is the most terrifying. Many people are not afraid of death, but they are afraid of ghosts. It sounds absurd, but when humans face unknown events beyond their knowledge, they will become extremely terrified. This is the truth.

"You stay here, I'll go take a look!"

Watching everyone walk out of the basement one by one, Qin Zhong stood up and wanted to follow. When Chi Xinru heard that she was going to stay, she quickly said, "I, I'll go with you!"

Qin Zhong looked at her sweaty face and knew that letting her stay might really make things difficult for her, so he said, "I may not be able to take care of you for a while. Bring your gun and be careful!"

Chi Xinru nodded desperately, picked up the pistol, grabbed Qin Zhong's clothes with one hand, and followed Qin Zhong, following these controlled people, out of the basement.

After walking out of the villa, Qin Zhong and Chi Xinru carefully followed the figures in front of them and moved forward slowly.

Qin Zhong looked at his watch. It was already 2:30 in the morning. The rain outside had stopped at some point, but the dark clouds had not yet dispersed. It was a moonless night and it was pitch dark outside.

Walking outside, Qin Zhong and Chi Xinru could feel a cold aura surrounding them, which made Chi Xinru couldn't help but shrink her shoulders and try to hide herself behind Qin Zhong.
