Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

But considering Akahoshi's ability to absorb crystal cores without any hindrance, it doesn't seem entirely unreasonable.

Seeing the park burned down made Lan Yu feel much better.

A jeep came into view.

That was Lan Yan and Chi Chen's car.

The park gates were opened, and some people tumbled and crawled out, followed by a dense horde of mutated zombies.

Without the computer's control, these zombies have clearly lost control.

They chased and bit humans, and when some zombies noticed people in the car, they immediately walked over.

Dragging his heavy body, moving at a slow pace, Lan Yan narrowed his eyes, stepped on the gas, and smashed the zombie in front of the car into the air.

Before the other zombies could surround them, they floored the accelerator and sped away in the jeep.

Lan Yu watched the car drive away before leading Chi Xing down from the high-rise building. He turned to Chi Xing and said:

"Xingxing, do you want to acknowledge your brother?"

Actually, Chi Xing's initial goal was to spend more time with Chi Chen, explain things to him, and kill Chi Fanxing along the way.

Their destination was the Star Base in the south, and they had to undergo a blood test before entering. Since they were zombies, they definitely couldn't get in.

But now, Akahoshi has changed his mind.

He said, "Let's go together and find out the truth about these things."

If the two families ultimately cannot accept that they have become zombies, then he will take Ayu and leave this place.

In the firelight, Lan Yu could clearly see Chi Xing's eyes.

Those were dark, bright eyes, like the dazzling stars in the sky.

Without realizing it, Lan Yu wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed her cool, thin lips against his.

Two zombies were kissing in the street, with flames shooting into the sky behind them.

A beam of intense light shone on them from a distance, causing Lan Yu to involuntarily close her eyes.

The jeep was parked not far from them, its lights off.

Looking at the two frowning inside the car, Lan Yu and Chi Xing both felt like they'd been caught in a relationship by their parents.

The car window opened, and Lan Yan's gloomy voice came through:

"Lan Yu! Get in the car."

The sound made Lan Yu, who was originally planning to escape with Chi Xing, pause. He sighed and obediently pulled Chi Xing into the car.

Perhaps this is the suppression of bloodline.

The two people and two zombies drove to a suburban area, away from the fire.

Parking by the river, Lan Yan looked at Lan Yu, then at Chi Xing.

"What's going on with you two?"

He never imagined his brother would find a partner so quickly, especially one who was a zombie, even though his brother had already become a zombie.

This sounded just like the question from the headmaster, making Akahoshi a little guilty.

According to the ages in the original text, Chi Xing is now nineteen years old, while Lan Yu, who has been a genius since childhood, was only fifteen years old when he entered the laboratory, so he is now about eighteen years old.

But Lan Yu died before he was an adult. Now, even though he has grown taller and more mature, he still looks like a child.

A pale, sophisticated, world-weary face, phoenix eyes with crystal blue pupils slightly narrowed, and half-length hair casually tied back, making him look like a rebellious teenager.

In comparison, Akahoshi is much more normal, a sunny college student with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his short black hair makes him look quite energetic.

“I was saved by Ayu, and I should repay her kindness with my body.”

Chi Chen in the passenger seat: ?

Lan Yan also fell silent.

To be honest, you weren't really alive to begin with.

Chi Xing, with a "what's the use" attitude, hugged Lan Yu and kissed his cheek again.

"Red Star!"

This time, Chi Chen couldn't help but call out to him in a deep voice.

How could he be so affectionate towards his own family in front of someone else's brother?

Chi Chen looked at Lan Yan apologetically: "I'm sorry, it's my fault for not disciplining him properly."

"Who said that? I was the one who set my sights on the star first," Lan Yu said coldly.

"I'm not that kind as to save other zombies."

Hearing this, Akahoshi's eyes lit up even more. He knew that Ayu only liked him.

Both zombies were getting all lovey-dovey when Lan Yan interrupted them again.

"Xiaoyu, tell your brother, why did it turn out like this?"

Lan Yan finds it hard to accept that her younger brother has turned into a zombie. Lan Yu disappeared in the Hope Base laboratory, so why has he turned into this?

Lan Yu kept looking into his eyes, trying to see a hint of guilt in his light-colored pupils.

But no, Lan Yan's eyes were clearly filled with heartache.

"Do you really not know why I've become like this?"

Lan Yan recounted everything that happened after he disappeared.

After discovering that Lan Yu was missing, the Lan family, along with other acquaintances, began searching for her.

“We searched for a long time but couldn’t find you. Then someone said you went up the city wall.”

Lan Yan had suspected others at the time, but who brought Lan Yu up there?

Following his instructions, Lan Yu tried hard to recall her memories before the infection, but they were still a complete mess.

Only one scene kept replaying in her mind. Lan Yu said, "I remember, it was Qiu Xuanyu, the one next to you, who pushed me down."

"You two are so close, didn't he tell you?"

Upon hearing Qiu Xuanyu's name, Lan Yan's long-suppressed temper finally erupted.

"Really him?"

Lan Yan's voice was somber, and his right hand was clenched into a fist.

Lan Yu nodded: "I don't remember anything else. If you don't believe me, you can go back and ask him, but it's uncertain whether he will tell the truth."

"Believe, I believe you."

Lan Yu was the younger brother he raised, and he knew his temperament well. How could he possibly side with Qiu Xuanyu to deal with his own brother?

Furthermore, when we asked the Qiu family members, they all said they hadn't seen Lan Yu.

Therefore, all of this was not solely caused by Qiu Xuanyu; more likely, the entire Qiu family, and even some people within the Hope Base, knew about it.

They killed his brother and then hid it from his family; their motives are self-evident.

Lan Yan looked at Chi Chen and said, "Over at the Star Base..."

Chi Chen immediately said, "We welcome you to join us anytime. As for your parents, as long as they are not heinous criminals and abide by the law, the Star Base will not make things difficult for them."

That man, how did he know what he wanted to say?

Chi Chen used to work in a special forces unit, where in addition to basic physical skills, one also needed a quick mind and a fast reaction time.

Sometimes, in order to better infiltrate the enemy's ranks as an undercover agent, he even needs to be proficient in psychology, and reading between the lines is of utmost importance.

Chi Chen is handsome and sunny, with wheat-colored skin that exudes a strong sense of hormones. Such a person is very deceptive and can easily make people think he is a big, dumb guy.

In fact, he is bold yet meticulous, always attentive to the feelings of those around him.

Lan Yan said earnestly, "Thank you. If you need anything in the future, feel free to contact me, as long as it's within my power."

Chi Chen smiled. Lan Yan was handsome and, in his eyes, a beautiful person. He didn't need to do anything; just standing there was enough to make him feel better.

Of course, Chi Chen didn't treat him as a mere ornament; the other party's ability level was higher than his own.
