Chapter 55 The Identity of X

"Did he tell you his real name?" Professor Xiao asked after listening to our story.

"No, he just told us his name is X."

"His real name is Xu."

"Isn't he a foreigner?" I always thought X was a foreigner, otherwise how could he know so much information about country M?

"According to your youth, he should be ABC. His parents immigrated to country M in the last century. He studied all the way to the highest university in country M, and successfully entered the research institute there to study zombie viruses..."

According to Professor Xiao, X's birth name is Xu Wei. He has never joined the backbone team of the institute because of his family background, and has been conducting research on the fringes.

A year ago, he discovered that there were variables in the virus experiment and it was no longer controllable.

So he came back from vacation for a period of time on the grounds of visiting relatives, and secretly contacted the Institute of Virology here, wanting to study the virus together.

Considering his special status, the research institute here has never dared to study with him. After half a year of secret exchanges, they learned a lot of virus information and reported it to their superiors.

But before they had time to take countermeasures, the virus over there leaked.

I don't know why Xu Wei published the information about the zombie virus on the Internet. In order to avoid causing panic among the masses, the hot search was taken down, and only a small number of people saw the news.

Now Xu Wei is in the country, helping to study the mutation and development of the zombie virus, and helping to build a security fortress.

Through Professor Xiao's explanation, we finally understand why X knows so much inside information.

……

We used the ingredients in the car to make a simple fried rice. We sat in the rest area and chatted briefly, discussing the future development.

Dads with daughters seem to be familiar with each other. Dad took out a bottle of wine from somewhere, and chatted with Professor Xiao while drinking.

"Old Xiao, how old are you?"

"I'm a dragon, I'm just 59 this year!"

"Your daughter looks very small, how old were you when she was born?"

"I worked hard for the first half of my life, and I only had this daughter at the age of 36. I am a girl when I am old."

"Hello, daughter. My daughter is Dad's caring little padded jacket."

"Yeah! So as soon as I knew about the virus, I hurried back from vacation!"

"The same goes for my daughter and son-in-law. After preparing the supplies, we took the old couple over. Be filial."

……

While chatting, Dad talked about his daughter's emotional problems again.

"Hey, Lao Xiao, does your daughter have a boyfriend?"

"Not yet, I just think that we Yunyun will be happy."

"Damn, in this troubled world, the most important thing is to find someone who is reliable and can protect my daughter well!" Dad was a little drunk, and started messing around with the mandarin ducks as he spoke, saying, "Our child, Lin Kai, is very good! He is clever and courageous, and he even saved me!"

Dad was a little unsteady, Lin Kai came over to support him, "Haha, uncle, don't praise me!"

"I have to praise! Lin Kai is handsome, and Yunyun is so beautiful! Just right! Very suitable!"

Yunyun lowered her head in embarrassment, I hurriedly pulled my father over, and said embarrassingly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my father hasn't drunk for a long time, and he can't drink anymore."

Professor Xiao waved his hand, shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's okay!"

Lin Kai looked embarrassedly at Yunyun, then at Tian Li, and said, "Uncle Xue always messes up the mandarin ducks." He scratched his head again.

Tian Li's expression could not be seen clearly under the flickering light of the fire.

She turned her face away and did not meet Lin Kai's gaze.

……

We slept in the rest area and put on our clothes for the night. In the early morning, the air was a bit cold, so we quickly packed up our things and were ready to go. Last night we speculated about the location of the safe fortress, which is about a little north, so We decided to head north.

I picked up the toy left by Lele, and Jia Yang was next to me. I said, "Lele must be very uncomfortable knowing that this toy was left here. Take it over and give it to him."

Jia Yang gave a "hmm" and said, "You have something heavy in your hand, give it to me!"

Lin Kai saw Jia Yang helping me with something, turned around and saw Tian Li was also holding something, so he wanted to help Tian Li with it.

Tian Li grabbed the things in his hands awkwardly, and said: "Yunyun also has a lot of things in her hands, go and help her get them!"

Lin Kai was at a loss next to Tian Li, but he still followed Tian Li.

Dad was drunk last night and was a little drowsy in the morning, so he lay on the bed of the long-distance car and slept.

Lin drove today, Tian Li didn't want to sit in the passenger seat, so I asked Jia Yang to sit in the passenger seat and help me to see the way.

Yunyun rolled down the car window and waved to Lin Kai, who also waved politely.

Afterwards, Professor Xiao's car started, and because we didn't have a map, we followed Professor Xiao's car and drove forward.

Seeing this scene, Tian Li still didn't speak, and went directly to the back bed.

I saw her looking sullen, and asked, "Lizi, are you unhappy?"

"No, he is him, I am me, I have nothing to be unhappy about!" Tian Li said while packing his things, but the strength in his hand was a lot heavier.

"Who is he?" I asked pretending not to know.

"Lin Kai! That fool!"

"What's the matter with you two?"

Tian Li realized that his things were almost packed, he lowered his voice, worried that Lin Kai would hear him, and said to me: "Sister Xiaoqi, I feel very strange recently."

"what's wrong?"

"I think I'm a big carrot... On the one hand, I like Captain Fang, on the other hand..."

"You like Lin Kai, don't you?"

I guessed what was on Tian Li's mind, she sat hugging her legs, she nodded slightly, then shook her head heavily, and said, "Who would like that idiot! He always bickers with me."

"But you're comfortable with him?"

Tian Li pondered for a while, and said, "Oh! I can't even figure myself out! Lin Kai should be my rival in love!"

"How do you feel about Fang Zhijiu now?"

"It's been a long time since we met, and I feel like I haven't thought about him often..."

"Do you think Fang Zhijiu's admiration for heroes? You think he's handsome when he fights off zombies, and he's saved you many times."

Tian Li thought about what I said, fell into deep contemplation, and then scratched his cheeks and said, "Ah, ah, what do I do, I think I am so heartbroken!"

I poked my head over to look at Jia Yang and Lin Kai, they were also talking without a word.

I tried to say: "Then you know, does Lin Kai like you?"
