77.Chapter 77: Captivity

Ouyang Hong left the conference room, loosened the button at the top of his shirt, pulled his tie, and his face was gloomy.

It's too much trouble to serve those old guys.

Why don't they listen to persuasion and don't understand the seriousness of the matter?

The senior management of the group sitting in that position didn't seem to be very capable. Why should I be at their mercy?

It's better for me to climb up on my own, control the overall situation, and turn the tide!

Thinking of this, Ouyang Hong calmed down a little. He had a little money, but not enough; There are also some connections, which are not enough to change anything.

He has the latest research results on the zombie virus and directly controls several infected people. This is his unique advantage. But now is not the time to make a move.

This matter is urgent, and needs to be considered in the long term.

For the first time, Ouyang Hong had the idea of something outside of his medical field, and once this thought appeared, it took root and was difficult to erase.

One day, those people will regret their decision today!

He walked down the stairs, took a few turns, bypassed a sign that read "No Entry" and stopped outside a locked isolation ward.

There was a small window under the door of the ward, allowing people to stretch their arms in and out. Outside the door, there was a meal that had long been cold, and no one seemed to have touched it.

Ouyang Hong knocked on the door, which was regarded as a greeting to the people locked inside.

"Doctor Ling, why are you doing this? It's time to eat or you have to eat. You probably know how precious these meals are on the periphery, and maybe they will kill a few people. ”

"Ouyang Hong, you let me out!" After a few seconds, Ling Lan's angry voice came from inside the room.

"I'm sorry, you've discovered the group's secrets, and I haven't thought of a reasonable way to deal with it, so I can't get you out of here for the time being. There is a good saying that curiosity kills cats. Ouyang Hong said with some regret.

He admired Ling Lan's professionalism, and the two had a tacit understanding in the early days of cooperation, but he didn't expect Ling Lan to follow him and discover the existence of other infected people.

Ling Lan broke the secret and realized that she had been deceived by Ouyang Hong, and when she tried to escape from this place, he controlled her and locked her in this isolation room.

Ouyang Hong did not report the matter to the group. At that time, the attention of the higher-ups was on how Yi Chen and Bai Ge would deal with the creeper, and if they knew about it, they would definitely think that he was not in a good position.

There is no need to alarm the higher-ups about this matter, just deal with it yourself.

There is a drug used for general anesthesia during surgery, which can make people lose their memory after being injected in large doses.

Since his life would be in danger, he hadn't made up his mind to use this medicine on Ling Lan's body.

Because he felt a little pity.

It's not that he has a good impression of Ling Lan, it's that he thinks that in the last days, the most important profession is a doctor. If there is a doctor who has made great achievements in the study of zombie viruses, this is a big loss.

"Or you can choose to play for me and make a break from the past." Ouyang Hong thought about it and said. He needs a competent assistant, and this person should not be from the original system of the future group.

Ling Lan was silent.

Ouyang Hong knew that he had to give her time to think about it, so he left a sentence of "I'll come to see you tomorrow" and prepared to leave.

"Yi Chen, how are they?" Ling Lan asked suddenly.

"The Creeper was killed, and only him and Bai Ge came back alive in that team." Ouyang Hong had already talked enough at the meeting just now, but now he was not interested in elaborating at all.

"Is he berserk again?" Ling Lan is a smart person.

The last time Yi Chen fought against the creeper in the dangerous building, he was injured and had several broken bones. If she can win this time, she guesses that nine times out of ten she has entered a state of rage......

A faint worry haunted her heart, and she always felt that Yi Chen might one day fall into darkness forever and never return to them.

"Yi Chen is very powerful, definitely beyond your imagination. I think he has the potential to become the Corpse King. Ouyang Hong said.

"Corpse King?" Ling Lan was taken aback, it wasn't that she hadn't thought about it, but she didn't dare to think about it as far-reaching as Ouyang Hong.

"Hmm. He is able to evolve and evolve, and the possibilities are endless. It is the law of nature that the strong are kings, and the weak are dependent on the strong and dominate for them. Now that we know that zombies will heed the call of monsters that are more powerful than them and join the battle, we shouldn't be wrong. ”

Ling Lan stayed alone in the isolation ward. It has everything you need, and even electricity and hot water for showers, so it doesn't feel like you're in captivity at all.

Ouyang Hong didn't shorten her eating and drinking, he would deliver food regularly, but she pretended to be troubled and was wary of him, so she went on a masochistic hunger strike.

The last words that Ouyang Hong said just now were still ringing in her ears.

“…… At the beginning of the apocalypse, zombies don't seem to have any social system, but this state will continue. What about three or five months from now, three or five years from now? Who knows what it will look like? Yi Chen is a ticking time bomb, and we don't know how he will stand in line in the future. Perhaps one day, he will easily destroy the new order that humanity has worked so hard to establish. ”

Ling Lan sighed. Ouyang Hong's concept is not wrong, he is just on the side of human beings, and he is more paranoid about analyzing the problem.

He doesn't know Yi Chen, and I'm afraid he doesn't want to know who he is. For him, the infected are just experimental samples.

Ling Lan secretly rejoiced that although she was also a rigorous perfectionist, she would not lose her morality and emotion. Yi Chen was her friend, and she trusted him.

Now, she had to figure out how to get out of the locked room.

No one else will pass by in the vicinity, and it is impossible to call for help. And the small window on the door, which can only allow the arm to stretch out, take the food, and can't think about it.

The only hope is the outward-facing window of the ward. Ling Lan had tried to climb up, but this floor was too high for direct escape.

Through the window, she could see the people coming and going beneath the building. If possible, she wanted to get the trapped message out there. However, the chances of success are slim and may require several attempts.

This can be quite time-consuming. Ling Lan thought for a moment, walked to the door, stretched out his hand, and dragged the cold rice in.

When Ouyang Hong still intends to win himself over, he must hold on.

People are iron and steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry and panic, and you will have the strength to start work when you are full!

At this time, in this building, in a room a few floors above this isolation ward, Yi Chen had just woken up.

He is recovering well and is already able to get out of bed.

Bai Ge came to visit him with flowers, saying that the group would arrange a car to take him out of here and return to the periphery early tomorrow morning.

They didn't know that what Dr. Ouyang said before that "Ling Lan is conducting a closed study" was a lie.
