Apocalypse: No rebirth! Time to upgrade the sewers!

The thought flashed through Song Qing's mind.

He looked at Sun Qing.

"It's been so long since I've contacted Sister Zhao. I wonder how she's doing now," Sun Qing muttered to herself as if she had just thought of something.

Song Qing casually asked, "Don't you guys keep in touch often?"

"Hmm..." Sun Qing tilted her head, a hint of confusion in her bright blue eyes. After thinking for a moment, she slowly said, "These past few days... I seem to have forgotten to chat with Sister Zhao."

Forgot?

Song Qing felt a throbbing vein on his forehead.

Looking at the naive and innocent foreign girl in front of him, he couldn't resist and flicked her smooth forehead.

A crisp flick on the forehead.

"oops!"

Sun Qing covered her forehead, her large blue eyes instantly welling up with tears, her eyes reddening as she looked at him pitifully.

"Ugh...my benefactor, it hurts so much..."

With a JOJO-esque expressionless face, Song Qing said, "I'm helping you become smarter."

"Oh, I see!" Sun Qing rubbed his forehead, nodded in sudden understanding, and then looked at Song Qing with an expectant gaze. "Well... benefactor, please continue."

"......................................................"

Song Qing was speechless once again.

He looked into Sun Qing's big, watery eyes, which were full of anticipation.

What kind of weird SM request is this?

He really couldn't understand this woman's thought process.

Song Qing waved his hand, deciding to give up on this meaningless exchange.

"never mind."

"Okay... alright." Sun Qing's pretty oval face instantly filled with visible disappointment.

She silently squatted down and started fiddling with her phone, her little face puffed up, looking like she was angry.

Looking at Sun Qing, who was squatting on the ground like a wronged big cat, Song Qing felt even more speechless.

What's with that disappointed look on his face?

Song Qing, trying to make conversation, asked, "Are you angry?"

Sun Qing raised her head, her eyes still slightly red, nodded heavily, and then said in a barely audible voice, "I must have been disliked by my benefactor... that's why he stopped helping me become smarter."

Song Qing was both amused and exasperated.

"That was just a simple tap on the head; it has absolutely nothing to do with becoming smarter."

"But I..." Sun Qing wanted to argue something.

Song Qing was too lazy to argue with her about this issue, so she raised her hand and flicked her forehead again.

"what!"

Sun Qing covered her forehead again, but this time she didn't cry out in pain. Instead, she exclaimed with delight, "But...but, I think I really have become smarter!"

Song Qing completely gave up on correcting her idea.

"That's just your imagination."

"Oh." Sun Qing nodded in disappointment and squatted back down.

Just then.

drip.

Sun Qing's phone beeped with a crisp message notification.

She picked up her phone and glanced at it.

The next second, she jumped up from the ground and let out a short gasp.

"what!"

Song Qing immediately noticed Sun Qing's unusual reaction.

He asked, "What's wrong?"

Sun Qing said, holding up her phone.

"My savior! Sister Zhao! Sister Zhao is in danger!"

"I'm going to find her!"

Sun Qing's voice was urgent.

Song Qing ignored her excitement; he didn't quite believe in this naive, sweet-talking foreign girl's comprehension abilities.

"Wait a moment, give me your phone." He held out his hand.

"But Sister Zhao, she..." Sun Qing stamped her feet anxiously, but still handed the phone to Song Qing.

Song Qing took the phone and quickly browsed the chat history.

The message was simple.

Sun Qing sent a meme of a kitten tilting its head and asking a question mark, "Is Sister Zhao there?"

A contact named Sister Zhao quickly replied, "Yes, what's up, Xiao Qing?"

"What have you been up to lately, Sister Zhao?" Sun Qing asked.

Zhao Gang: "Nothing much, just encountered a little trouble."

Sun Qing asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhao Gang: "It's nothing, it's just that my base was attacked."

Upon seeing this, Song Qing raised an eyebrow.

That's it?

He looked at Sun Qing, who was anxiously pacing like an ant on a hot pan, and was somewhat speechless.

"You didn't even ask about the specifics before rushing off to find them?"

"But, but Sister Zhao said there's trouble!"

Song Qing was too lazy to waste words with her. He covered Sun Qing's cherry-like mouth with one hand, which was about to continue speaking, and typed quickly on his phone screen with the other hand.

"What's the current situation at the base?"

The message has been sent.

After a while, the other side replied.

"My base was destroyed by that guy Gu Ge; he went to work for the Wang family in the North District."

Wang family.

It's the Wang family again.

Song Qing didn't know Gu Ge, but he was very familiar with the name Wang Jia.

He continued typing, asking, "Where are you?"

Song Qing already had a plan in mind.

Since this woman named Zhao Gang has fought with the Wang family, she must know some information about the abilities of other members of the Wang family.

Moreover, the fact that even Zhao Gang, who has such strong earth and rock manipulation skills, was defeated shows that the opponent's strength is definitely not weak.

It's worth going to see.

Zhao Gang's message came again soon: "Xiao Qing, don't come over, it's too dangerous. I'm not at the gym right now, this place is surrounded by a horde of zombies, we can't get out."

A zombie horde?

Sun Qing also saw the message. She snatched the phone from Song Qing's hand and immediately dialed a voice call.

The call was connected.

"Sister Zhao! Tell me your location, I'll come and rescue you right now!" Sun Qing's voice trembled with excitement.

A hoarse female voice came from the other end of the phone: "Xiao Qing, you better stay put. Telling you the location will only hurt you."

"I don't care! Sister Zhao, you..."

Before Sun Qing could finish speaking, Song Qing snatched the phone away again.

He put the phone to his ear and spoke concisely.

"Location."

There was a visibly startled pause on the other end of the phone, followed by a wary inquiry, "A...man? Who are you?"

"I am Sun Qing's friend," Song Qing said calmly. "Tell me your location, and I will come to rescue you. In exchange, tell me information about all the Wang family members you have fought."

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

Several seconds passed before the woman's voice rang out again.

"No, that's too dangerous. If you need information, I can tell you right now."

"Location," Song Qing said again, "I just need a place where we can meet in person."

"you……"

"Sister Zhao!" Sun Qing said from the side, "Tell me the location, and also that our benefactor is extremely powerful."

Zhao Gang on the other end of the phone was clearly bewildered by Sun Qing's address of him as her benefactor.

"My benefactor? My dear... what happened to you?"

"My benefactor saved me before."

Song Qing had no interest in listening to their sisterly affection, so he interrupted the conversation again.

"Have you made up your mind? My time is very precious."

Zhao Gang remained silent for a moment.

"...I'm at the Vienna Hotel in the East District. Be careful when you come over, the area is teeming with zombies."

"understood."

After finishing speaking, Song Qing hung up the phone immediately.

He tossed the phone back to Sun Qing, who caught it in a fluster.
