Doomsday Carnival: The Little Monster Only Has a Seven-Second Memory

Because Su Yu had given prior notice, the five of them traveled smoothly all the way to the inpatient department of the underground hospital of the survivor base in City A.

Even in a heavily guarded hospital area, there were still many patrol teams, and no one on the street spoke.

With the recent outbreak of the second wave of zombies, everyone's faces are filled with worry, and no one is in the mood for idle chatter. To be honest, the atmosphere in the base is not as good as before. Before, when everyone was engaged in building a new home, they were full of energy.

Everyone is now listless and lifeless.

Lin Shuangshuang withdrew her gaze and automatically followed Huo Ling into the inpatient elevator. She then stared at the screen as they ascended floor by floor until they reached the fourth floor.

There were quite a few people in the corridor.

As soon as the five of them stepped in, they attracted a lot of attention, with all sorts of stares.

Curious, inquisitive, greedy.

Huo Ling's gaze locked onto several people almost instantly. Their eyes were all on Lin Shuangshuang behind him, but he blocked them.

The other person looked directly at him.

Huo Ling calmly looked back. The other person seemed surprised that he was so calm. He was taken aback for a second, and then revealed a playful look.

"It seems these are Secretary Su's guests. They are indeed young and promising."

This person speaks in a sarcastic and insinuating way.

The three of them, including Rona, looked at each other warily and gave each other a menacing look.

Young, but not cowardly.

Huo Ling ignored them, took Lin Shuangshuang's hand, and brushed past them towards Su Yu's ward. Her subordinates rushed over, "Captain Huo is here? Hello, Sister Wushuang, the secretary is waiting for you inside."

The secretary also nodded and smiled amicably at Rona and the other two.

Huo Ling and Lin Shuangshuang nodded in agreement, and Luo Na and the other two greeted her with smiles.

Both sides were very friendly.

The man not far away sneered, "Not very strong, but quite the show-off."

The others also let out disdainful laughs.

Secretary Zheng maintained a polite smile, but said sarcastically, "Goodbye, Secretary Jia."

He then turned around and followed Huo Ling and Lin Shuangshuang, eventually stopping at the door to stand guard.

The man called Secretary Jia looked ashen-faced as if he'd eaten shit. "You're just a bully relying on your master's power, fine, let's go. Who says someone with such a high rank doesn't welcome us?"

Upon hearing this, the young woman next to Secretary Zheng said, "Don't spread rumors!"

"Xiao Qian," Secretary Zheng interrupted.

The girl named Xiaoqian finally shut up, still feeling indignant.

Secretary-General Jia had a small, square face and looked respectable, but in reality, he was a good-for-nothing. He gave them a sinister look, then led his group away swaggeringly.

Judging from the attitudes of both sides, it seems that they have completely broken off relations and are no longer pretending.

Su Yu lay on the bed, her face pale, fully aware of the commotion outside. She smiled and said, "Please excuse my poor appearance."

Huo Ling said, "No."

Lin Shuangshuang shook her head as well. She stood next to Huo Ling, looking at Su Yu with longing eyes. She had no memory of the last time she met her.

I only have a short note in my memo, so I'm still quite nervous.

She nervously gripped the bed railing.

There was some worry in his eyes.

Su Yu was about to say something, but seeing her like this, she gave her a reassuring smile, "Come on, I'm fine, I just had some minor injuries."

Xiao Qian, standing at the door, blurted out, "You call it nothing after being ambushed?" Her voice was still slightly choked with emotion. "You almost died!"

Secretary Zheng scolded her, apologized to those inside, then closed the door and pulled Xiaoqian next door to scold her.

The little monster didn't seem to react much, but it was actually gripping the bed railing tightly.

Su Yu looked down and saw Lin Shuangshuang's hand, her fingers were white from gripping so tightly. She quickly said, "It was quite dangerous, but the injury isn't serious. Shuangshuang, please sit down. Xiao Huo and the others, please sit down too. Don't be so formal. Just treat me as a friend and let's chat casually."

Huo Ling reached out and took Lin Shuangshuang's hand, subtly holding it. "Okay."

The three of them, including Lorna, agreed and then found seats to sit down.

They are exceptionally well-behaved.

Lin Shuangshuang then came to her senses, realizing she had been overly anxious. She turned to see Luo Na and the others seated before asking Su Yu directly, "Was it those people outside who set up this ambush for you?"

Su Yu was taken aback, then laughed. "You're still the same as always, always getting straight to the point. Yes, it was them. This time, we managed to expose them, confirm their identities, and even get the evidence. It's not a loss."

Wu Zhe couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "They did this, and they still dare to swagger over here?"

Luo Na said she knew, "because perpetrators usually like to return to the crime scene. Although this hospital is definitely not the scene, he must have wanted to check on the situation, since Director Su is still alive, right?"

Gao Lei remained silent.

Su Yu couldn't help but laugh, "Your analysis is quite good, and your guess is pretty accurate."

Lorna felt a little embarrassed by the praise, and thought the leader was quite easy to get along with.

Huo Ling reminded him, "Let's talk about serious matters so as not to disturb your rest."

He knew that Rona and the other two were gossipy and talkative, and that they would chat endlessly. He also knew that the other person's injuries were obviously not as minor as she had claimed.

Su Yu sighed, looked at the five of them, and finally fixed her gaze on Lin Shuangshuang, saying, "I originally didn't want to involve you. You should be free, but sometimes fate is just like that..."

After going around in circles.

She, this soft and harmless little jellyfish monster, was still dragged into it.

Lin Shuangshuang shook her head and said very clearly, "You don't need to blame yourself or be sad. My identity is special. Since I can't escape it, I might as well face it calmly."

She spoke as if she were talking about someone else's story, making no mention of her past suffering.

Luo Na and Wu Zhe had already secretly teared up, and Gao Lei also felt sad. Anyone who knew a little about her experiences couldn't help but feel sorry for her, let alone Su Yu, who had watched her grow up. Su Yu felt so sorry for her that it hurt.

Su Yu didn't show her emotions. She quickly composed herself and said, "You're not officially employed, but rather partners. This way, it will be easier for you to break away in the future, and you won't have to bear such a heavy burden."

She knew this burden would be overwhelming, so there was no need for them to bear it. The children had already suffered enough; she should let herself and her teammates have an easier time.

She said that after joining, they only needed to carry out the tasks she assigned and operate under her protection. As long as she was alive, she could protect them.

Su Yu also gave Lin Shuangshuang a card, "There are supplies you need inside. I've already spoken to your two friends; they can rest and recuperate there without worry. Do you have any other questions?"

She said they could ask her anything they wanted to know, and she would answer them.

Huo Ling's focus was naturally on those people who were keeping an eye on Lin Shuangshuang. "You said we can't make any moves for now because of the big fish behind them. How many leads do you have on that person right now?"

He has a clear goal.

The goal is to eliminate this person and ensure Lin Shuangshuang's personal safety.

Su Yu said, "It's true that this person is a cancer, but it's not just about eliminating him. Wushuang's matter also involves the issue of humanoid weapons. Otherwise, even if we just eliminate this person, others will still be eyeing her. But this is not something that can be resolved overnight. Let me think of a comprehensive solution."

The regulations governing the personal protection of humanoid weapons definitely need further improvement.

She wants to protect this group as much as possible.
