Chapter 234 The Abandoned Cannon Fodder Beauty in the Apocalypse (23)
The tracking talisman moved continuously through the passage, sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right, and the crowd followed closely behind. Their footsteps echoed in the empty passage, and their breathing became rapid and heavy.
Finally, the tracking talisman slowly stopped in front of a huge metal door, hovering in the air and trembling slightly.
Shen Chumo stepped forward first and carefully examined the door. The door was covered with intricate patterns and lines, and there was a small display screen in the center, but at this moment the screen was completely black and did not display anything.
Lin Haoran was extremely anxious and was about to rush up and force his way in, but Shen Chumo stopped him.
"Don't act rashly. There might be traps or mechanisms in this door. We need to be careful," Ying Chu said in a low voice, his eyes filled with vigilance.
Ying Chu crouched down and found a groove resembling a keyhole on the bottom edge of the door, but there was no matching key around.
The bearded man, Lei, found a loose brick on the wall. After pushing it open, he revealed a control panel about the size of a palm with several buttons that were flashing slightly. However, the buttons were not labeled, making it impossible to know where to start.
Shen Chumo pondered for a moment, then took out some wiring parts he had found in the monitoring room and began to try connecting the wiring on the door to the control panel.
Her gaze was focused and resolute, and her slender fingers deftly moved among the intricate lines, as if performing a delicate surgery.
After a series of tense operations, the display screen on the door suddenly flickered a few times, and the metal door slowly opened with a low rumble.
A chilling aura swept over them, and the group gripped their weapons warily as they cautiously entered the room.
The room was filled with various strange instruments and equipment. In the center of the room was a huge metal bed, on which Bai Nuannuan lay with her eyes closed and her face pale.
"Nuan Nuan!" Lin Haoran shouted excitedly and was about to rush forward, but Shen Chumo stopped him again.
"Don't rush, check if there's any danger around us," Shen Chumo said cautiously.
The group dispersed and began to search the room carefully, but found nothing unusual. The boy who had captured Bai Nuannuan and brought her here was nowhere to be found.
Shen Chumo walked to Bai Nuannuan's side, gently held her wrist, and checked her pulse and breath.
"Her body is very weak, but her vital signs are relatively stable. She must have been injected with a drug that made her unconscious."
Lin Haoran finally breathed a sigh of relief, holding Bai Nuannuan in his arms with exceptional gentleness. He lowered his head, looking at Bai Nuannuan's pale yet still serene face, his eyes filled with heartache and pity.
Shen Chumo rubbed her chin. Lin Haoran, as one of the male leads, was indeed very good to Bai Nuannuan.
I don't know what the other four male leads are like.
Seeing that Shen Chumo was staring at Lin Haoran, Ying Chu suddenly hissed softly and rubbed his injured shoulder.
Hearing Ying Chu's movement, Shen Chumo turned her head and looked over, seeing that Ying Chu looked distressed.
He asked with concern, "What's wrong? Does your wound still hurt now that it's healed?"
Ying Chu frowned, looking somewhat pitiful. "I'm fine. I probably pulled on it again while running."
Shen Chumo gently pressed Ying Chu's hand to stop him from moving around, and said with a serious expression, "Don't move around. You're in so much pain and you still say you're fine. Let me see what's wrong."
Ying Chu gave a soft "hmm," looking incredibly obedient.
He lowered his head slightly, a few strands of hair falling in front of his eyes, but they couldn't hide his gaze towards Shen Chumo.
Shen Chumo looked at the flawless white shoulder, then at Ying Chu's feigned pain, and sneered inwardly, "He's quite good at pretending."
The corners of her mouth turned up slightly, with a faint smile, but it quickly disappeared, and she maintained her worried expression.
Then, she slowly reached out her hand, her slender fingers drawing a graceful arc in the air before gently placing it on Ying Chu's shoulder.
Her palms were warm, gently pressing against his skin and caressing it lightly.
Ying Chu felt the gentle touch spread throughout his body like an electric current. His body stiffened slightly, but he quickly relaxed. His gaze became deep and intense as he stared straight at Shen Chumo.
"How's it going? Does it still hurt?"
Shen Chumo's breath gently brushed against Ying Chu's cheek, carrying a faint fragrance of orchids. The fragrance was delicate and elegant, seeping into Ying Chu's nostrils and lingering in his heart.
Ying Chu's ears turned slightly red as she gazed quietly at Shen Chumo, while Shen Chumo lowered her eyes slightly, her long eyelashes casting a shadow under her eyelids.
"Feel much better."
Shen Chumo withdrew her hand and gave him a faint smile, "That's good."
Then, turning to look at Bai Nuannuan's condition, Ying Chu felt a slight sense of loss, but the lingering warmth on his shoulder seemed to allow him to feel the warmth and softness of Shen Chumo's palm.
Qi Yaotian and the others exchanged glances, feeling goosebumps all over their bodies.
Wow, this virgin is really quite the repressed pervert when he gets aroused.
Li Ge's face was full of a mixture of suppressed laughter and disdain. He lowered his voice and said to the people around him, "Look at the boss. He usually looks like a very serious person. Tsk tsk, he's really something."
The people nearby nodded in agreement.
Suddenly, the metal door behind them closed, and a red light suddenly turned on in the room. The blinding red light instantly filled the entire space, illuminating everything in a bright red glow.
A hoarse voice came from the speaker above.
"You worthless insects," the voice drawled, carrying a condescending contempt and disdain.
"I was thinking of letting you go, but since you're so rude and insisted on trespassing on my territory, then you'll all stay and be my test subjects, hahahaha."
The arrogant laughter echoed continuously in the enclosed space.
The bearded man's eyes were filled with anger. He glared fiercely at the speaker and shouted, "Who are you? You cowardly coward, come out if you have the guts, stop playing tricks!"
The sound stopped, and suddenly white smoke billowed from all four corners of the room, spreading rapidly and engulfing the entire space at an extremely fast pace.
In the blink of an eye, everyone's vision was completely obscured by the smoke.
Then all that could be heard was the dull thud of people around them falling to the ground one after another.
Oh no, this is sleeping gas!
Shen Chumo was startled. Realizing this, she immediately swallowed a pill and pretended to faint.
After an unknown amount of time, the smoke gradually dissipated, and the metal door was opened.
Two footsteps approached from outside the door. Shen Chumo could sense that the two people were standing not far away, their gazes seemingly sweeping over everyone as if they were scrutinizing their "prey".
"A-Yuan, go and send them all to Laboratory Number Two."
