Chapter 153 Love can only reach those who have love in their hearts.
"What did you say?" Cang Xingyue took a step forward in shock. She looked at the person on the ground; the appearance was indeed Fang Yanqing, but the feeling she got from him was that of someone else.
The image of the white-haired woman who had dissuaded her from leaving and warned her of the danger flashed through her mind.
She's Fang Yanqing's older sister—Fang Zhiyi?!
The thought filled her with disbelief.
"Fang Zhiyi...?"
Fang Zhiyi, lying on the ground with her eyes closed, did not respond to her. There was not a single unscathed part of her body. Those who launched these attacks had put in all their strength, fearing that 'Fang Yanqing' would not die.
Fang Zhiyi had no chance of survival.
"What's wrong, Yue?" Lu Siyan walked to her side, glancing at the corpse on the ground. "Is something wrong?"
"I think this person is not Fang Yanqing, but his older sister Fang Zhiyi."
“Fang Zhiyi?” Lu Siyan frowned, searching his mind for people related to this name.
He recalled the person he had met twice in Dr. S's lab.
One time, when he was in a dazed state after being injected with the experimental drug, he saw her standing outside through the glass. At that moment, her eyes were full of Fang Yanqing; the concern in her eyes was so blatant, yet her movements were so cautious, as if afraid of being discovered.
But no matter how sneaky she was, she was discovered. When Dr. S stood in front of her, her concerned gaze immediately turned into one of fear.
She was then roughly dragged away by Dr. S, who grabbed her by the collar.
He still remembers Fang Yanqing that day. He came to the lab in the morning and sat there from morning till night. He was full of hope and excitement at the beginning, but became disappointed and dejected in the evening.
At the moment when it was past midnight, he roared like a madman, angrily overturned the table in front of him, and smashed the chair.
Finally, she cried like an abandoned child, murmuring, "Why did you abandon me? Why didn't you keep your promise? Sister, please don't abandon me..."
That night, Fang Yanqing, with a gloomy face, injected experimental drugs into his body one after another, venting all his anger on him, as if he were the one who had betrayed his promise.
The second time was half a month later. Fang Zhiyi was pale and very weak. She appeared outside the glass window again, and her originally black hair had turned white.
This time she didn't linger. She only glanced at Fang Yanqing before leaving in a hurry, as if they were just passersby on the street.
Fang Yanqing was completely unaware of her two visits.
“Fang Yanqing pushed her out as a scapegoat.” Lu Siyan smiled sarcastically.
He killed the last person in the world who cared about her.
Although he had only met Fang Zhiyi twice before, he could tell that she cared a lot about Fang Yanqing.
Cang Xingyue nodded, having also considered this possibility.
Fang Yanqing shielded the strange corpse beast from many attacks, and was injured as a result.
Now everyone in the base knows what kind of person he is, and they are all coming to punish him out of hatred. He is now in a very difficult situation to deal with.
Only by introducing a scapegoat, making everyone believe he is dead, can he leave peacefully, then recuperate and make a comeback.
She wouldn't let his evil scheme succeed.
Cang Xingyue used her power of time to revert Fang Zhiyi's appearance back to its original state.
The residents, who were still basking in the joy of getting rid of Fang Yanqing, suddenly lost their smiles and stared in astonishment at the person on the ground, who had transformed from Fang Yanqing into a strange woman.
"What about Fang Yanqing?"
“They’ve escaped.” Cang Xingyue said solemnly. “Now we need to intercept everyone trying to leave the base and investigate all suspicious individuals in the base.”
"We must find Fang Yanqing and stop him from harming innocent people."
"We'll split up now. Close the base gates to stop anyone from leaving, and we'll also take care of searching for Fang Yanqing," the base's superhumans said.
Everyone witnessed Cang Xingyue's strength when she was annihilating the alien corpse beast, and they were all sincerely impressed.
She also revealed her identity as Cang Yunyang and her purpose in doing so was to investigate the truth and find the real culprit.
She became the pillar of support for the residents, and everyone listened to her.
Cang Xingyue nodded to everyone, "Thank you all for your hard work."
The residents began to move about, each leaving their own territory. Only Cang Xingyue, Lu Siyan, and Fang Zhiyi, whose body had already lost its warmth, remained on the ground.
Cang Xingyue took out the memory extraction gun and aimed it at Fang Zhiyi to extract her memories.
Fang Zhiyi is Fang Yanqing's older sister, and she might know some details about how he spread the virus and created the apocalypse.
After extracting the memories, she took one last look at Fang Zhiyi, and then set her body on fire.
She didn't know how to evaluate Fang Zhiyi. She was on Fang Yanqing's side and protected him unconditionally and without regard to right or wrong when he was in trouble.
Yet, they don't completely side with or agree with him.
If she hadn't said anything, no one would have noticed the difference. Even if they had, they wouldn't have been able to figure it out because of their identical figures and appearances.
But just before she died, she said something inappropriate to her, which made her realize that she was not Fang Yanqing.
After all, he had only mentioned to her that Lu Siyan was his fiancé.
She guessed that Fang Zhiyi was someone who cared about family ties, and that it would be difficult for her to sit idly by while Fang Yanqing acted out of consideration for family. However, she did not approve of Fang Yanqing's actions.
Lu Siyan pointed to the gun in her hand that had the letter K9 printed on it and asked, "What is this?"
"Memory Extraction Gun".
As she spoke, she played Fang Zhiyi's memories.
As the memories played, Fang Zhiyi's past was revealed, but unfortunately, nothing related to the beginning of the apocalypse could be found.
She paused the playback of the memories and looked at the memory extraction gun. Suddenly, she felt that it was a powerful weapon. The memories of Fang Zhiyi contained inside were enough to make Fang Yanqing suffer unbearable pain and regret his past actions.
Cang Xingyue sighed softly, realizing that Fang Zhiyi was, in the end, just a pitiful person.
……
Fang Yanqing and Huanhu walked down the main street of the base, enveloped in purple smoke. To everyone else, it appeared as Cang Xingyue and Lu Siyan walking down the street.
They assumed the two of them were there to find Fang Yanqing.
After Fang Zhiyi left, Fang Yanqing found the Illusion Fox hiding inside the house.
He couldn't help but feel relieved that the phantom fox he had gone to great lengths to save hadn't been killed outside.
The base gates were tightly shut, and a dozen or so superhumans blocked the entrance, stopping one person after another from leaving the base.
As they walked over, they immediately attracted attention.
Before they could speak, Fang Yanqing asked first, "Have you found him?"
The leader was a tall, thin male superhuman. He shook his head and said, "No, but how did you get here?"
“Oh… I found a secret passage at Fang Yanqing’s house, which leads right to the gate. I was wondering if he had already escaped beforehand, so we decided to go out of the base to check.”
"This Fang Yanqing is quite cunning," the tall, thin man said angrily, clenching his fist.
"Alright, you guys go after them." He turned around and shouted to the superhumans blocking the door, "Everyone, make way for them and let them out first."
