Chapter 283: Surviving the Apocalypse, Removing All Obstacles (29)
"Hey, don't cry. I hate it when others cry. I'm telling you, okay?"
Lin Ao was just about to reach out and pull up the person's face to see if he was really crying, when he saw Shen Youan slowly raise his tearless and innocent face and said softly:
"Go ahead."
"No...? You didn't cry! You lied to me! I won't say anything."
Lin Ao became even angrier and suddenly felt that the person in front of him was even more irritating than Lin Yan.
"I didn't say I was crying. My feet just hurt, so I lay down for a while..."
Shen Youan retorted in a low voice.
“…”Okay, I, Lin Ao, can’t argue with you!
Seeing that Shen Youan was about to bury his face again, Lin Ao remained silent, "Is it not okay for me to say it?"
"Actually... Lin Yan was quite cute when he was little, but he was quite pretentious when he was little. He didn't like to smile, you know, and he always put on a cold face."
As Lin Ao was speaking, he received a resentful look from Shen Youan, as if saying: You are saying bad things about my Yan again!
"It's true. He was like that when he grew up, but he might have treated you a little differently. Speaking of why I hate him, I didn't lie to you just now. He really wanted to compete with me for the family inheritance."
Lin Ao rested his elbow on the knee of his bent leg, reminiscing.
"Also, we both thought each other was Lin Xiao's illegitimate child, so we hated each other. But as I said before, Lin Yan was very cute when he was a child, so when I first met him, I liked him quite a bit, but I didn't like him anymore after that."
"But what was funny later was that we were all Lin Xiao's illegitimate children. However, we were the only ones listed in the Lin family tree, while the other illegitimate children were not."
Having said that, Lin Ao glanced at Shen Youan, who seemed a little puzzled, and continued:
"Are you wondering where the real Madam Lin is?"
"Yeah," Shen Youan responded softly.
"After getting married, the legitimate Mrs. Lin was found to be infertile. She was sucked dry by her own family. In the Lin family, she was looked down upon by the old man. Lin Xiao cheated on her again. In the end, she went crazy and was admitted to a mental hospital."
Having said that, Lin Ao didn't want to say anything more. He just looked at Shen Youan's still curious eyes and said a few more words in a hurry.
"I was raised by my mother, and Lin Yan was raised by her grandmother. Anyway, there is a natural gap and hostility between us. There is no so-called reason. What I said before were all excuses."
After saying that, Lin Ao stood up and went looking for the button again.
In fact, Lin Ao had more excuses to say. He envied Lin Yan for being smarter than him and being appreciated by Lin Xiao. He also envied Lin Yan for being rebellious enough, which was something he could never match.
Therefore, there is no freedom in Lin Ao's life.
Time passed minute by minute, and just when Lin Ao was about to give up, he seemed to have really touched something.
Just as he was excitedly preparing to tell Shen Youan, he accidentally used too much force and pressed the button. The wall instantly flipped over, and Lin Ao came to another space.
"Fuck..."
Lin Ao was really scared this time. He slapped the wall frantically and shouted Shen Youan's name. After a while, Lin Ao stopped.
No! He had to find the button and press it back. It wasn't safe here. If something happened, like someone sprained their ankle, there was no way they could escape.
At this time, Lin Yan had already reached the place marked on the map, which meant that they would be able to get the reagents and return soon.
"You guys stay outside, you two follow me in."
After Zhang Xin finished speaking, he pushed the door open and went in first.
There are so many reagents here that it is simply dizzying, but Lin Yan doesn't care about that. He is only thinking about finding someone.
“Where can I open it?”
Lin Yan looked at Zhang Xin who was looking for reagents with his head down and asked.
Zhang Xin raised his head, pointed to the control panel over there, and said lightly:
"You should remember the location you just mentioned. It should be marked on the map. Just open it yourself. However, if you are not 100% sure, it is best not to press any buttons randomly. Some mechanisms are connected, and some cannot be pressed at the same time."
If he made a mistake, he couldn't guarantee what would happen. After all, he was not from this laboratory and only knew some general traps.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xin frowned. One is Lin Yan's treasure, and the other is the young master of the base. No matter how you look at it, they are two troubles.
Zhang Xin didn't want to think too much, so he lowered his head and continued to look for the reagent. He picked it out, which might be the reagent he was looking for, and put it in the hands of Yang Xi next to him.
After Zhang Xin found the reagents, he looked up and saw Lin Yan who was still hesitating.
"Ok?"
Lin Yan compared it one last time and pressed the button. There was no movement in the laboratory. Zhang Xin looked at him and said calmly:
"Congratulations, you must have found the right one. We can return the same way."
If you press a button without a trigger, there will at least be some movement in the laboratory.
When Lin Yan heard this, he stuffed the map back into Zhang Xin's hand and ran out quickly to look for someone.
After Zhang Xin and Yang Xi left, everyone started to return the same way.
After walking for a while, Huang Guang glanced at his side and realized that another team member had disappeared at some point. In their group, apart from him, there was only Yuan Nanyin left.
Huang Guang quietly retreated to the side of Zhao Qi and the other man, told them the news, and told them what he had just seen.
Yuan Nayin didn't care about Huang Guang's little movements, she just took a few quick steps and came to Yang Xi's side.
Lin Yan on this side had already arrived at the place where Shen Youan and Lin Ao fell just now, but when he looked down, there was no one inside.
Lin Yan's heart tightened, but there seemed to be an opening in front. Lin Yan jumped over the opening and looked down, and found that only Lin Ao was there.
"Lin Yan, can you please help me get up there?"
At this moment, Lin Ao didn't care about anything else and asked for help even when he saw Lin Yan.
Lin Yan took out a hemp rope from the space, threw it down, and pulled the man up. As soon as Lin Ao's head appeared, Lin Yan asked:
"What about him?"
As Lin Ao came up, he replied:
"Isn't he in the other room?"
"No."
"what?"
When Lin Ao heard this, he was shocked and afraid that Lin Yan would let go, so he quickly climbed up.
After coming up, I went straight back to the place I had just been to. When I looked down, I found that there was no one inside.
"He twisted his ankle, where can he go?"
Lin Ao frowned and complained.
"Sprained ankle?"
Hearing Lin Yan's question, Lin Ao smiled awkwardly and explained:
"Falling from such a height, so suddenly, and twisting your ankle, isn't that normal?"
Lin Yan glanced at him, not knowing whether he believed it or not. After looking at the height, he jumped down directly.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Lin Ao didn't have time to stop her and could only watch Lin Yan jump in.
"Maybe he's already out?"
Lin Ao looked at Lin Yan below and expressed his guess.
Although it's a bit... unlikely.
"Come down."
"what?"
He just came up and now you want him to go down, he refuses!
"Come down."
After hearing Lin Yan repeat it again, Lin Ao had no choice but to jump in again.
After entering, he was stunned by the scene he saw.
