The man smiled. "Of course not, but we do know a lot about the virus."
He corrected himself, "I'm the only one that knows a lot about the virus."
Under the influence of the ability, he had to answer all of her questions.
He seriously answered every question that Bei Nuan asked and strived to be precise in his wording because of her wording "answer questions to the best of your ability".
He said his name was Song Ce. He worked in a laboratory of a scientific institution that was LBD's subsidiary.
Since several years ago, Song Ce had been studying a strange virus discovered in a remote island country in the southern hemisphere. The virus was brought by a meteorite and was extremely contagious.
The country was an archipelago, so it was easy to blockade the island where the zombie virus broke out. The country took a tough approach of bombing the island with artillery fire and successfully kept the virus from spreading.
Because the method was so ruthless, it couldn't be known to the public, and the matter was concealed.
However, LBD got news of this and obtained virus samples through its connections with the government's higher-ups.
Song Ce had been studying viruses to begin with. He secretly accepted the research work and threw himself into studying it for the past few years.
However, researching this virus didn't bring any benefits. LBD's leadership gradually lost interest and cut Song Ce's funding for research year after year.
Song Ce said, "No one expected that the zombie virus would be the same virus that I had been studying for the past several years."
Bei Nuan didn't understand. "Then why are you running around and hiding? Wouldn't it be better to take out your research results to benefit the public?"
Song Ce smiled. "You're too naive. Do you think they're looking for me because they want to use my vaccine to benefit mankind? They want to kill me. I want to go to the safe zone and find a trustworthy person to hand over my research results."
Did he say vaccine? Vaccine?!
Lu Xingchi interjected, "You not only have a virus inhibitor, you also have a vaccine?"
Song Ce only answered Bei Nuan's questions and ignored him.
Bei Nuan helped Lu Xingchi ask, "So you have a vaccine?"
Song Ce seriously nodded. "Of course I developed a vaccine, and it's very effective. As long as it's mass-produced, the zombies won't be a problem anymore."
The virus inhibitor could only stop people from becoming zombies, but the vaccine could make everyone immune to the zombie virus.
This person had drugs to make people invisible to zombies, inhibit the virus, and a vaccine.
My god, he was like a mythical being.
With these things, the zombie virus's vicious momentum would crumble in a flash.
There was suddenly a sound coming from the door. Someone was turning the doorknob.
Bei Nuan jumped up, sprinted to the door, pushed the door to keep it from opening.
They had taken too long. The others had gotten impatient with waiting and came up to tell them to hurry up.
Bei Nuan only opened the door a crack.
Sure enough, Big Black was standing outside.
Big Black saw Bei Nuan and showed an ugly expression. "What book are you looking for? Why is it taking so long? Captain Zheng told me to come up and tell you guys to hurry back down."
Bei Nuan quickly recited the incantation and said to him, "Wait at the door for five minutes."
Big Black blankly looked at Bei Nuan. He obediently turned right, took two steps forward, squatted down, and waited at the door without saying anything.
Bei Nuan was silent. She only told him to wait at the door. She didn't ask him to squat down and guard the door like a stone lion.
He was a bit too obedient.
Over at the sofa, Song Ce had seen Bei Nuan walking away. His face now showed a confused expression. Five minutes had passed since she gave her order.
Lu Xingchi asked him, "Why does LBD want to kill you? Why don't they want the vaccine?"
Song Ce didn't answer him. He looked around and seemed puzzled as to why he was sitting on the sofa.
Just when Bei Nuan closed the door and was about to walk back, Song Ce figured it out. He quickly stood up and dashed towards the secret room.
He had been obediently cooperating with answering questions. Lu Xingchi didn't expect that he would suddenly flee and was stunned for a moment.
At this moment, Song Ce had already reached the entrance to the secret room and picked up a thick dictionary on the bookshelf. The door to the secret room silently slid open.
Lu Xingchi reacted very quickly. As soon as he raised his hand, the steel crossbow shot out all of its arrows, and a large cluster of nails rose up and stopped right behind Song Ce.
"Don't move," Lu Xingchi said, "If you move, I'll pin you to the wall with the nails. I don't want to hurt you."
Song Ce looked back and saw the gleaming nails miraculously suspended in the air. His slightly wide eyes revealed his surprise. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Xingchi.
Bei Nuan hastily accepted the chaotic situation and was prepared to issue another command.
She silently started reciting the incantation, but before she finished, she saw that Song Ce had become someone else.
It was her dad.
Her dad, who she hadn't seen in so many years. His familiar face was smiling and gently looking at her. He was even wearing his usual dark jacket. He was wearing the same outfit she had last seen him in when he had left for work. She still remembered that school day morning.
Bei Nuan was frozen on the spot. She couldn't move. She even forgot to breathe.
As if driven by instinct, she softly called out, "Dad?"
Her dad glanced at her and didn't reply. He turned around and entered the secret room.
