It has to be said that it's no wonder the kids love their big brother, and the big brother is always thinking about his kids.
The small deformities that remain here are all the ones that have bled.
Their blood ran too deep; upon seeing them, their first reaction was to pounce and devour them.
Yu An wasn't eaten; their target was Xie Chiyuan.
Xie Chiyuan was entangled by the little deformity and it took him quite a while to finally break free. Yu An also finished checking the area: "There's no 66."
There was no 66, nor were there Yin Feng and Song Jun.
During the search, Yu An was focused on his goal, while Xie Chiyuan was different; Xie Chiyuan was still searching for something else.
For example: Did Secret Shield secretly create aberrations? What was their purpose? How many of their aberrations were leaked out?
Yu An was unaware of these issues.
As they walked, Yu An would check the time every now and then.
“It’s almost morning. Xie Chiyuan, if we don’t get back, the kids will definitely find out. I’m afraid Qiuqiu will cry again.”
His crybaby, Qiuqiu, is truly the kid he worries about the most.
Just as Yu An was thinking about Qiu Qiu, Qiu Qiu couldn't find any trace of the motorcycle. He didn't have a phone or a flashlight with him, and it was pitch black all around him. Tears welled up in his eyes as he flew aimlessly.
"Big brother."
Every now and then, the chirping bird would call out "Big Brother!" But after calling for half the night, it received no response whatsoever.
He flew for an unknown amount of time. Suddenly, "splat—"
Chirp bumped into something.
He rubbed his forehead, wanting to stand up and continue flying. But when he saw the scene before him, he was completely dumbfounded.
The scene before us can only be described as horrific.
There were a few faces on the small island in the west district that Chiu Chiu recognized. He saw them here.
In the past, when socially awkward Xiao Qiu saw these people, she wouldn't talk to them.
But this time was different. By sheer chance, Little Chick flew over in a hurry, flapping its wings. As it got closer, it cried out anxiously, "What's wrong with you all?!"
These people were covered in blood, surrounded by zombies and mutants; the signs of a fight at the scene were horrific.
Chiu Chiu had no idea what had happened to them.
But he knew Song Jun.
Song Jun, the superpowered individual, was originally a very cheerful young man. Qiuqiu remembers that he loved talking to his older brother, loved to laugh, and was also very handsome and sunny.
But the Song Jun he saw now had blood all over his face, and the despair and ferocity in his eyes were shocking.
There were people in Song Jun's arms and behind him.
Chiu Chiu could sense that the person he was holding in his arms was no longer breathing.
“I am Chuchu, we know each other.”
Qiuqiu raised his hand and wiped Song Jun's face with his sleeve. He then took out a jelly from his pocket and fed it to Song Jun's mouth.
"Take a bite, then talk to me, okay?"
Chirping kept talking to Song Jun, who was now lost and a little scared of the place.
From the moment he appeared, Song Jun had been staring at him intently.
Chiu Chiu let him watch her and kept feeding him.
Yu An was unaware that the person he and Xie Chiyuan were looking for had been unwittingly found by his own son.
They hadn't even searched half of the area in the research institute.
"Baby, let's go first."
That night, Yu An made no discovery, but Xie Chiyuan did. He discovered some data records from the secret shield.
The records show that the number of aberrations in the shield is both output and input.
This data indicates that the Shield's aberration experiments have been going on for a very long time. So long that... it started before Yu An arrived.
In addition, Xie Chiyuan asked another question: "Baby, does the little fish logo of Secret Shield Labs refer to you?"
Yu An, Little Fish.
This is too much of a coincidence.
Yu An looked back at him blankly: "They were already using the little fish avatar before I came to Secret Shield."
Xie Chiyuan paused for a moment before giving a soft "hmm".
The two hurried back. What was like a den of dragons and tigers to others was a place they could enter and leave at will.
The motorcycle was still parked outside, and Xie Chiyuan took Yu An back as fast as he could.
Before the full light of dawn broke, Yu An and Xie Chiyuan went back to their bedroom.
Both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Yu An quickly washed up and changed his clothes. He hadn't closed his eyes yet, but he planned to go check on the babies first.
On his first night living in a separate room from his children, he wanted to check on them to see if they were behaving well.
"Xie Chiyuan, you go to sleep. I'll be back after I've finished looking after the baby."
"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back."
Chapter 114
Xie Chiyuan rested in bed and did not accompany Yu An.
Yu An went to the next room alone. The room was unlocked, and after knocking on the door to no avail, he simply pushed it open.
"Chirp chirp. Are you awake yet?"
As Yu An asked the question, he walked toward the bed.
When he got to the bedside, he found it was empty. At this time, the lazy Chuchu usually wouldn't wake up.
Yu An was a little puzzled, but thought that it was probably because Qiu Qiu slept alone, so getting up earlier was reasonable.
He went to the rooms of Seven and Eight. He didn't find Eight, only Seven was there.
When Qi Zai saw his older brother, the whole baby got excited.
"Big brother, you're back!"
Seven hugged Yu An, letting out a sigh of relief: "Thank goodness, you're finally back. Five, Eight, and I were so worried about you."
Yu An patted his head and smiled, "Big brother had some things to do last night, how did you know I wasn't here?"
Seven said quietly, "It's all because of Fifth. He came looking for Chiu Chiu, but couldn't find her. That's when we discovered you took Chiu Chiu out with you."
Yu An: "..."
Yu An's smile suddenly froze.
His gaze fell on Qi Zai's face, and his voice was almost incoherent: "Qi Zai, what did you just say? Chirp, I took Chirp away?"
"yes."
Seven-year-old said, "Big brother, next time could you please not only bring Qiuqiu, but also me and Xiaoba?"
Yu An's head, which hadn't slept all night, felt slightly dizzy.
He grabbed Qi Zai's hand and asked again, "Chiu Chiu is gone?!"
Seven looked confused: "Didn't you bring him with you?"
Yu An's vision blurred, and her voice trembled: "I didn't bring him with me! I left with Xie Chiyuan last night!"
He thought there was no need to bring the kids along, so he didn't bring any of them.
Now, it was Qi Zai's turn to be confused.
A few minutes later.
Xie Chiyuan opened the door to his room. He was wearing a loose-fitting shirt, and his eyes still looked a little sleepy. The sight was actually quite pleasing to the eye.
But Yu An had no time to appreciate it at that moment.
He was so anxious that sweat beaded on his forehead: "Xie Chiyuan, our little one is gone!"
Chiu Chiu is lost, and Ba Zai went to find Chiu Chiu, but he got lost too!
Xie Chiyuan: "?"
Xie Chiyuan's sleepiness vanished instantly.
He looked at the anxious Yu An and asked, "What exactly happened? Don't worry, tell me slowly."
Yu An and the children behind him went into the room, and they quickly explained what had happened.
The tiger cub had already returned, but upon learning that Chiu Chiu was still outside, he left again without saying a word.
The loss of the two cubs made Yu An want to cry.
Ying Jian kept urging him: "An'an, you're staying here, and you still can't remember anything? Or do you remember if your teacher has a habit of working at home?"
Ying Jian's goal seemed very firm; he had been searching for Gu Ainan's trail from beginning to end.
To put it bluntly, it's traces of his work.
Yu An shook her head: "My dad doesn't talk to me about work. I've always lived in the research institute; I don't live with him outside."
He had never lived outside, so naturally he didn't know if his father worked at home.
Ying Jian frowned, a suppressed emotion flashing in his eyes.
"Uncle Ying, my son Qiuqiu has gotten lost. I need to go look for him now. If it's convenient for you, could you lend me some people to help me look for him?"
After Yu An finished speaking, Ying Jian's expression froze for a moment.
Clearly, Ying Jian hadn't expected Qiuqiu to get lost. He knew about the little Qiuqiu that Yu An always carried around, and he also knew that the little Qiuqiu had a very good relationship with A05.
