Quick Transmigration: The Green Tea Mistress's Guide to Seduction - A Master's Handbook

Xie Qingyu decided to go on the mission the very next day.

"Do you want to come with me?" Xie Qingyu's face was still wet with tears, and in front of her was the food that Ji Lingshen had brought over.

“I’ll go with you if you want to,” Ji Lingshen said gently. “Eat something first, otherwise you won’t have the energy to go out.”

Although their vehicles were confiscated when they arrived, they were modified vehicles brought from their base, so they didn't need to consume crystal cores when using them.

Xie Qingyu plans to recruit two high-level ability users to accompany her on this trip.

But unexpectedly, it was Zhou Yao and Wang Peng who came.

"The two of you?" Xie Qingyu asked with a hint of surprise.

"This is an internal decision," Zhou Yao said. "It's not convenient here, let's talk about it in the car."

When the four of them set off, Xie Qingyu still felt a sense of unreality.

"Please accept my condolences." Wang Peng wasn't good with words; it took him a while to finally manage to say this to Xie Qingyu.

“We also found out about this yesterday, and like you, we basically felt something was off,” Zhou Yao said more directly.

Xie Qingyu's gaze was serious.

"Have the other two Level 3 ability users contacted you?" Ji Lingshen asked.

Zhou Yao shook his head. "One of them is on a mission outside, and the other hasn't given any information."

Their base previously only had three Level 3 ability users, including Xie Cheng. Now that Xie Cheng has sacrificed himself, Zhou Yao and the others know about it, which doesn't make sense; but the other Level 3 ability user doesn't know.

If he doesn't participate at this point, I don't know if there are any other reasons.

“Northern Base…” Ji Lingshen began, “Well done.”

Zhou Yao's expression also turned a little cold.

"Even if you're surrounded by zombies on a mission, unless there are many evolved zombies, there's no way you'll get bitten." A level three ability user can easily handle two evolved zombies at the same time.

Even though there are many zombies in the university, it can't be said that several evolved zombies are surrounding Xie Cheng at the same time.

Moreover, none of the other superhumans who went on the mission with them were killed.

The best way to quickly tame ordinary people in a small group is to make them lose their long-standing leader.

In just a few days since arriving at the Northern Base, these superhumans have sensed that there are several factions within the base, each with different goals.

Some want the base to expand and become the only human settlement.

They wanted to develop a serum as soon as possible to save all of humanity.

Some are also trying to study the mechanisms of zombies in order to find other ways to survive.

Regardless of which force it is, everyone wants to grow and develop, which means taking in more people.

The superhumans at their base are the kind of talent these people want to compete for.

"We'll know when we see it." Xie Qingyu had calmed down by now.

Although Xie Cheng brought some business acumen to the management of the original base, he also had principles and ethics in helping every human being as much as possible.

Therefore, he was very popular among the people in the base.

Xie Cheng's presence is somewhat of an obstacle for the Northern Base to fully absorb and control these superhumans.

This is a truth that Xie Qingyu just realized yesterday.

Or rather, none of these forces can absorb Xie Cheng entirely along with them, so they can only break them up first and then distribute the spoils.

"These people are no good," Wang Peng cursed under his breath. "I suspect they're even using people with superpowers for experiments."

What Wang Peng said is indeed public knowledge.

They knew when they first arrived that people with superpowers could receive rewards if they cooperated in conducting relevant experiments.

However, no one has heard specifically about what kind of experiment would be conducted.

SS University was indeed not far away; they arrived in just over half a day.

It's probably because Xie Cheng and his group came a couple of days ago and cleaned up some of the mess.

There are many zombie corpses in the school, probably because many of them were students before the apocalypse.

When Xie Qingyu saw the words "School of Biology," her eyes narrowed.

Zhou Yao and the others didn't know the exact location of Xie Cheng's sacrifice, but judging from Xie Qingyu's expression, they probably knew something about it.

"On the fifth floor," Xie Qingyu said, and then took the lead in climbing the stairs.

Several zombie corpses lay scattered on the stairs. When Xie Qingyu couldn't avoid them, she simply stepped on the corpses to get up.

Ji Lingshen, who was walking behind her, always had one hand protecting her waist.

There are about twenty rooms on the fifth floor from beginning to end.

But no one said they should search separately.

They searched each room one by one, leaving no corpse untouched.

After entering room by room and examining each face, they finally found Xie Cheng lying on the ground in Laboratory 517.

He fell onto the lab table in front of him with his back to the door, and then fell to the ground.

Even though she was facing away from the door and couldn't see the face on the lab bench in front of her, Xie Qingyu still recognized Xie Cheng at a glance.

Ji Lingshen approached first and turned the person on the ground over.

Blood was flowing all over the back of his head. When he was turned over, there was a hole that had exploded between his eyebrows. His entire face was covered in blood, making it almost impossible to see his features.

But everyone knew him very well and would not mistake him for someone else.

"Gunshot wound," Zhou Yao said.

The gunshot wound, running from the back of the head to the forehead, must have been fired at very close range.

Xie Cheng had his back to this person.

Wang Peng looked at the bloodstains on the wall, then at the ground. "The height still seems wrong."

Xie Cheng was about 1.8 meters tall, but the bullet marks on the wall were only about 1.4 meters in diameter.

"It's probably due to physical exhaustion or side effects, or perhaps while checking something..." Ji Lingshen said.

Each of the possibilities he mentioned was relatively likely.

Xie Qingyu remained silent and began examining Xie Cheng's body.

I don't have any on hand.

There was none on my wrist either.

There was nothing on her face.

There was none on her neck either.

With a determined look in her eyes, Xie Qingyu began to lift Xie Cheng's clothes to check him out.

There is none on the front of the chest.

There's none on the back either.

......

"I come."

Ji Lingshen understood what she meant and then checked other places. Zhou Yao and Wang Peng also came over to help, and Xie Qingyu stood aside.

"nothing."

Ji Lingshen and Zhou Yao helped Xie Cheng put on his clothes and whispered.

At this point, what could the four of them not understand?

This is not a treatment that is unavoidable due to a zombie bite.

Instead, he was ambushed and killed by his teammates when they were off guard.

Xie Cheng probably never imagined that he would die at the hands of humans instead of zombies.

“The last mission involved five people,” Xie Qingyu murmured.

“Three superhumans and two experimenters,” Zhou Yao added.

"The one carrying a pistol is the lab technician," Ji Lingshen confirmed.

Those with non-aggressive superpowers are equipped with handguns, and both he and Xie Qingyu received one.
