Chapter 874: Chapter 874: Only Fantasy Remains
"True God?"
Bai Xiqin instantly thought of Wang Ge when she heard Captain Zhou’s words.
The Wang family’s laboratory was called the True God Research Institute, and they were always clamoring for the arrival of the True God.
In reality, the so-called True God was just devoted to cultivating some powerful superpower users.
Captain Zhou’s belief in the Nuwa True God was not wrong, but it had nothing to do with the True God Research Institute.
Whether in this life or the past life, Bai Xiqin knew that Captain Zhou purely admired the Nuwa True God. As a minority, he had an almost fanatical worship of ancient True Gods.
This was a personal belief.
"He will definitely bring her back, he definitely will."
Captain Zhou started moving in place, waving his arms and legs, looking like he was dancing.
His dance moves were peculiar, with uncoordinated limbs and no aesthetic appeal, unlike something a spine could produce.
His limbs each danced their own way.
With his outfit of women’s clothing, he looked somewhat like a witch performing rituals on TV dramas.
Captain Zhou’s movements became more exaggerated and his expressions on his face more ferocious.
In his eyes, there flashed not only sorrow but also bewilderment.
He had made up his mind, yet he wanted to forget this outcome and accept an ending he could bear.
Bai Xiqin could instinctively feel Captain Zhou’s regret and his unwillingness to accept the truth.
Li Xue’s death might have something to do with him.
His fault, or his reason.
The mistake that was already made could never be mended, and what use does Captain Zhou’s current disheveled state have for those who have passed away?
Dead is dead, and what’s owed is owed.
"Captain Zhou, what exactly happened to Li Xue!"
Bai Xiqin couldn’t stand it anymore. Her control power instantly took effect on Captain Zhou.
Captain Zhou’s body suddenly stiffened, bound in place, unable to move an inch.
His face was forced to face Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai.
These two people, Captain Zhou naturally knew and was very familiar with.
Apart from going on missions together, Li Xue mentioned the Bai Family every day.
It was the Bai Family who saved her and her sisters, gave them a second life. He listened every day, never feeling annoyed.
Because it was Li Xue speaking, he enjoyed listening to Li Xue’s voice.
With his shameless persistence, Li Xue gradually accepted him from her initial resistance.
Everything was heading in the best direction, to the extent he even wanted to go to the abandoned police station and change his surname to Li for her.
But...
The vision before him gradually blurred, even making it hard to see the faces of Leng Yebai and the others.
Two streams of turbid tears rolled down, heavily hitting the ground.
"She’s dead, the Iron Maiden Squad is dead, everyone is dead."
Captain Zhou’s hoarse voice sounded.
On that day, because he respected women too much, he trusted a woman too easily.
While executing a mission, he brought her back from the wilderness, intending to send her to the Fire Phoenix Safety Base together.
But when he went out to find dry firewood to cook, that woman suddenly went berserk...
She was a Zombie King, a Zombie King with a form identical to a human’s.
The Iron Maiden Squad that went out on a mission together was annihilated.
He still remembered the scene when Li Xue died.
He saw the kitchen knife in Li Xue’s hand chop into the head of that Zombie King, and the Zombie’s finger also pierced straight into Li Xue’s temple.
Everyone lay in a pool of blood.
He didn’t even have a chance to exchange a word with Li Xue, see her one last time, all breaths stopped.
Since then, he wore Li Xue’s clothes on himself, as if she were still alive, always by his side.
He could never forgive himself because he knew if he could do it over, he wouldn’t know if the future him would still not leave that Zombie King behind, if he would still take her along.
Being friendly towards every woman had almost become an instinct, like a parasite gnawing at his bones, unable to quit.
"Because you died due to your kindness, because you were too friendly to women, because your choices never looked at right or wrong, only at gender!"
A nameless rage rose in Bai Xiqin’s heart, almost making her want to point at Captain Zhou’s nose and curse him.
She understood Captain Zhou too well!
In her past life, it was precisely because he was too friendly to women, as a mighty captain of a safety base, he led a very poor life, even less than an ordinary superpower user in a safety base.
Everything he had was used for poverty alleviation.
The targets of poverty alleviation were all women.
At that time, it was fine because he had no partner; the women approaching him only came for benefits.
But now, he was no longer a lonely bachelor; he was Li Xue’s boyfriend, and continuing like this was irresponsible.
"Was I wrong?" Captain Zhou’s throat moved, a sigh came from his nose, and he said softly, "It’s not important anymore."
"Then what is important? Is it your clothes or Li Xue and their lives?"
Bai Xiqin was never willing to waste words. When dealing with unsightly villains, she would directly slap them to death.
But thinking of Li Xue, she couldn’t bring herself to kill Captain Zhou, yet she didn’t want to let him off easily.
Stab where it hurts.
"The True God will return her to me, will." Captain Zhou said each word with emphasis, "At that time, I will only worship Xiao Xuexue and be nice to no other woman."
A hint of longing flashed in Captain Zhou’s eyes, already immersed in some kind of beautiful fantasy.
"Wang Ge and his group only conduct research, treat people as lab rats, they won’t help you, and so-called resurrection, is it real resurrection? When the time comes, will the Li Xue you see still be Li Xue?"
Bai Xiqin unhesitatingly shattered the last defense line of Captain Zhou.
Captain Zhou’s eyes dimmed, but soon brightened again.
He understood it was fantasy, but apart from that, he really had nothing else.
"I don’t care, even if it’s just a walking corpse, I want it."
Captain Zhou pressed his thin lips together, his tone beyond firm.
He only wanted to see her every day, to have her by his side. By then, he would treat her well.
Never to look at another woman.
All tenderness for her.
Bai Xiqin gritted her teeth, withdrew the control power on Captain Zhou, and turned to leave.
She was too angry and didn’t want to talk to Captain Zhou anymore. If she continued, she might beat Captain Zhou to death.
After regaining freedom, Captain Zhou started to dance again.
Weird, and bitter.
His whole body was enveloped in a dense sadness, clearly standing in the sunlight, but his heart and soul were in darkness.
"That True God Research Institute is unreliable, they only torture people, never help."
Leng Yebai threw out a sentence, not caring if Captain Zhou could hear it or not, then strode after Bai Xiqin.
The research institute that Captain Zhang and Zhang Yiming had teamed up to destroy wouldn’t last much longer.
The clues with Captain Zhou were better off ignored.
