Chapter 217 What did you hear?
When everyone was shocked, Shousui looked at the person in the photo in his hand again as if he was uncertain.
Only the upper body of the person in the photo is shown. The man is wearing a typical white coat of a scientist. He smiles gracefully at the camera with pursed lips. The lines of his handsome face are clear yet soft. His facial features are delicate and three-dimensional, revealing a sense of warmth. The pair of rimless glasses on his nose not only do not conceal his handsomeness, but instead add a touch of scholarly temperament of an educated person.
Looking at the familiar face in the photo, Shousui's face turned pale instantly.
"What's wrong?" He Ci noticed Shousui's expression changed in an instant and couldn't help but stare at him and ask.
Shou Sui did not respond to He Ci's question immediately, but held up Lou Lin's profile photo and placed it in front of Zuo Xiao's eyes to confirm again and asked: "Who do you say this is?"
Zuo Xiao didn't understand where Shou Sui's expression of disbelief came from. From his tone, it seemed as if he was questioning Lou Lin's identity. Zuo Xiao couldn't help but answer seriously: "Although it is hard to believe that he has made many achievements and reached a certain height in his twenties, he is indeed Lou Lin."
Shousui's face turned even paler after hearing this definite answer. He handed the photo in his hand to He Ci, his expression solemn, "Take a look, if this is the same person, then Gu Xulin and the others might be in danger."
He Ci took the information from Shousui without knowing what was going on, but the next moment he was stunned by the person in the photo at first glance.
However, apart from the addition of a pair of frameless glasses, the man in the photo's eyebrows and the red teardrop mole under the corner of his eye all looked the same as their companion who had accompanied them all the way - Luo Tingyu.
……
On the other side, Yan Shun thought about going back to his room to take a hot bath after dinner. Because of the injury on his arm, he couldn't touch water before. Every time Yan Shun came back covered in dust outside, he could only choose to simply wash himself. He hadn't taken a proper bath for almost a week, and he was really feeling suffocated. Now that his injury was almost healed, the first thing Yan Shun wanted to do was to take a comfortable hot bath.
Not long after taking a shower, Yan Shun went out for a walk and heard the news from Xiang Aonan that Gu Xulin, who had been in a coma for a day, had just woken up. Yan Shun thought that since he was living on someone else's territory and under their protection, and Gu Xulin, as the host, had been injured and in a coma for so long and had only just woken up, he and Luo Tingyu should go visit him to show their concern.
Thinking of this, Yan Shun hurried out to find Luo Tingyu and then go visit Gu Xulin together. When dinner was over, Luo Tingyu said that he was full and wanted to go out for a walk to digest the food. He has not come back since he went out.
Yan Shun searched for a whole circle but didn't see anyone. He couldn't help feeling strange and asked several people but they all said they didn't see him. Now the only thing left was the small woods in the north. Could it be that Luo Tingyu really went there for a stroll?
Although the ginkgo forest is in its most beautiful season in December and the place is quiet and very suitable for walking, it is too close to the protective fence, so few survivors here will go there. Moreover, no one has the leisure to take a walk around in the apocalypse. After all, it may easily attract nearby zombies to crash into the protective fence.
Yan Shun was wondering where Luo Tingyu had gone, and before he knew it, he had already walked to the ginkgo forest. It was already night, with only the occasional street lamp on the side of the road. The forest was pitch black, and the road could only be seen with the moonlight.
After arriving at the place, Yan Shun thought that since he was already there, he walked into the forest without much hesitation.
Looking at the dim shadows of the trees around him, Yan Shun inexplicably felt a sense of gloom coming over him. He originally wanted to shout a few times and turn back if no one responded, but then he changed his mind and thought that if he alarmed the zombies wandering nearby outside the guardrail and caused unnecessary trouble, it would not be worth it.
Since he couldn't shout, he could only keep looking. Fortunately, Yan Shun didn't walk far before he saw a blurry figure standing under a tree not far away.
The figure almost blended into the night. If the man hadn't been wearing a bright red coat, Yan Shun might not have been able to find him. Luo Tingyu had her back to him, as if she was talking to someone, but because they were quite far away, he could only vaguely hear the words K City? Zhongyan? And Amber.
Wait, why did they mention Amber? Could it be that the Amber people are chasing us again? Yan Shun frowned, feeling a little uneasy. He just hoped that he had heard it wrong, or maybe the Amber people were really chasing us to K City.
"Who?"
Just as Yan Shun was getting worried, Luo Tingyu in front of him suddenly turned around and shouted in his direction.
"It's me, Yan Shun. Who are you talking to?" Seeing that he was discovered, Yan Shun didn't want to hide and walked quickly towards the man and asked.
But when he approached the man, Yan Shun found that there was no one beside Luo Tingyu. If there was no one, who was Luo Tingyu talking to just now? Could it be that he was hallucinating?
Yan Shun dared to guarantee 100% that he had clearly heard Luo Tingyu talking to someone just now, and that person also responded to him. Although he did not hear clearly what was said in reply, but from the tone of voice Yan Shun knew that it must be a man.
When he got closer, he found that there was no one in front of Luo Tingyu. However, when he came towards Luo Tingyu just now, he clearly did not see any figure leaving in a hurry, nor did he hear any sound of anyone leaving.
So, what's going on?
"What did you hear?" Luo Tingyu looked at him, his eyes hidden in the night revealing a hint of coldness. The man did not answer but asked instead.
