"good."
She touched Qiuqiu's forehead and said softly, "Shall we go avenge the baby now?"
Chirp chirped again: "Okay!"
The old man and the young man got up and walked out of the courtyard without disturbing anyone else.
By the time Gu Ainan finished talking to the children and came out, they were already out of sight.
"Where's Chirp?"
Bazai, not seeing Qiuqiu, asked in confusion, "Wasn't he trying to comfort Grandma?"
Because Qiuqiu was the most well-behaved child in their eyes, they felt at ease entrusting him with the task of coaxing his grandmother.
But to everyone's surprise, the adorable little boy, Qiuqiu, managed to lead his grandmother out in just a few words.
The landlord has all the house keys.
When the people in the town saw the crazy woman leading a useless little boy out, they knew something was wrong and immediately locked the door.
"Chirp chirp, open the door."
"Um!"
Chiu Chiu acted as a henchman, opening the locked door.
The little good-for-nothing Chirp, relying on its grandmother's presence, spread its wings and fiercely pounced.
He's going to eat them!
The locked doors were opened one by one. Chirp's wings were stained with blood, not a single drop of which was his.
Chiu Chiu also discovered that these people couldn't be killed.
Even if you can't kill it, eating a couple of bites can still vent your anger.
The key rings strung with keys jingled, like a sign of the devil's arrival.
The noise continued until nightfall before finally stopping.
Chiu Chiu was exhausted. He opened his little arms and said to Qin Sang, "Grandma, can I hug Chiu Chiu?"
Chirp's wings were sore, and his teeth were sore too. He had exhausted himself, and his legs were still sore when he walked.
Although Qin Sang is old, she looks only in her forties or fifties.
She bent down and picked up Qiuqiu.
Chirp perched on her shoulder and let out a long sigh of relief.
Night fell as promised.
But this time, the streets were empty of the people from the town.
A strangely shaped moon hung high in the sky, its light enveloping everything. Qin Sang, carrying Qiu Qiu, slowly walked home.
As soon as I entered the house.
When Gu Ainan saw the blood-stained little wings of the chick, she knew what had happened.
He took Qiuqiu from him. Qiuqiu had cried too much during the day and was exhausted from fighting, so she had fallen asleep by now.
"I put him back."
As soon as Gu Ainan finished speaking, the tiger cub came over. He was there to ask for a chirp.
“Wipe his blood clean.”
"Um."
After handing Qiuqiu to the tiger cub, Gu Ainan didn't say anything more to him.
"Mom, you should take your medicine."
After arranging for the younger one, Gu Ainan went to take care of the older one.
He knew what Qin Sang and Qiu Qiu had done, but he didn't stop them.
Working until late at night.
Gu Ainan finally had a little free time. He returned to Yu An's bedside and quietly looked at the face in front of him that resembled his wife's.
"An'an".
Gu Ainan leaned against the bed frame, trying to relax his tired body a little. He lowered his eyes and said softly, "You shouldn't have come here."
Everyone living here is crazy. If you live with crazy people, one day you'll be assimilated into a crazy person yourself.
These lunatics cannot be let out; if they were, they would be far more terrifying than zombies, mutants, or other variants.
They proclaim themselves gods, not gods who have mercy on all living beings, but gods who can manipulate everything at will.
To kill these "gods," he would need to pay the price of An'an.
Thinking of this, Gu Ainan closed her eyes.
He still wanted to send An'an away; An'an would be safe outside.
With the A-series mutant babies outside, An An doesn't even need to awaken on her own to live a safe and secure life.
That night, the mutant babies finally slept without encountering any more danger.
Gu Ainan stayed with Yu An until dawn.
at the same time.
Xie Chiyuan, who has been out of contact with Yu An ever since, has completely lost his patience.
He looked at the silent communicator and said to Ruan Ke, "Something must have happened to An An."
"He promised me he would message me."
Two days have passed, and there has been no news from Yu An.
Not only did no news come, but Xie Chiyuan's calls to him were always unanswered.
"Chi Yuan".
Looking at Xie Chiyuan, who was visibly agitated, Ruan Ke advised him, "Even if there's no news about An'an, it doesn't mean he's in any danger."
"Don't forget, he brought five A sequence aberrations this time."
"The A-sequence aberrations are the children you and An'an are supposed to raise, but in reality, they are top-tier killers who can overwhelm most people with force."
Ruan Ke's words of comfort did not put Xie Chiyuan's mind at ease.
Xie Chiyuan felt very uneasy.
"Uncle Ruan, I have to go out."
Xie Chiyuan was not only uneasy, but his eyelids were also twitching incessantly, as if something bad was about to happen.
Xie Chiyuan insisted on leaving, and Ruan Ke couldn't possibly tie him up.
After a stalemate, Ruan Ke sighed: "I will announce to the public that you went to find a vaccine."
"You need to bring An'an and Dr. Gu back within a week."
"good."
Seeing that he had agreed, Xie Chiyuan did not hesitate at all and immediately packed his things and left.
No sooner had he left than Yin Qin emerged from the bedroom.
Yin Qin said with a sour face, "He's getting more and more willful."
Ruan Ke shook her head, disagreeing with his statement: "Chi Yuan has always been steady and mature. He is in a hurry to leave because of An An."
Yin Qin's brows were still furrowed. Although he was satisfied with Yu An, a question uncontrollably surfaced in his mind.
"Yu An's identity is very complicated. If one day Chi Yuan had to choose between An An and all of humanity, what would he choose?"
This question left Ruan Ke speechless.
Ruan Ke couldn't answer, so she scolded him, "What nonsense are you thinking? What conflict could An'an possibly have with human existence?"
After asking the question, Yin Qin also felt it was absurd. He frowned and dropped the topic.
Xie Chiyuan traveled day and night, rushing from the western district, and he hardly closed his eyes in between.
As he traveled, Yu An's condition fluctuated.
"My older brother is also a mutant, why hasn't healed himself yet?"
Bazai stood by the bed, extremely anxious as he looked at his older brother whose wounds showed no signs of healing.
Gu Ainan pursed her lips, not telling these little ones that his An'an was not some ordinary mutant.
The aberrations are named according to their sequence number, with sequence A being the strongest and the others decreasing in strength after A.
His An'an, however, had no serial number.
His An'an has only one code name—
God created it.
There was only one way to save An'an when he fell ill: to modify his body.
The person who modified Yu An's body was his deceased wife.
His wife did not die after An'an was born; she was merely in a state of forced hibernation at that time.
This forced hibernation allows her bodily functions to remain intact until the very last moment before she dies.
Once she is released from hibernation and her bodily functions resume, that is when she will die.
Gu Ainan originally thought that he would temporarily seal his wife away, and that she might have a chance to survive when technology became more advanced in the future.
But he never expected that before his wife's hopes could be fulfilled, his son would face a desperate situation.
My son is too young to start forced hibernation like my wife.
On the night her son was struggling in agony and on the verge of death, his wife woke up.
Perhaps there truly is a bond between mother and child in this world. The mother, who was in hibernation, heard her son crying and slowly opened her eyes.
"I've thought of a way to save An'an. It's just that An'an might have to suffer a bit."
