Chapter 942 - 942 Didn’t We Discuss This Last Night That We Would Give Birth to More Babies Than Your Cousin?
Dou Xiangling’s face turned white due to worry. She could not be bothered about anything else as she pushed open the courtyard gates and headed inside.
Zi Yi and the rest also hastily chased after her.
Nothing could be seen from the courtyard, but the situation inside the spacious living room had caused their hearts to sink.
Broken items were scattered all around the ground. Moreover, there were several guards and maids lying in a pool of blood.
Dou Xiangling was about to make her way inside when Zi Yi hastily pulled her back.
“Cousin, don’t go in first.”
Dou Xiangling turned her head and looked at Zi Yi. Even the rims of her eyes were red.
Zi Yi said with a serious expression, “There’s a virus spreading inside. Don’t get too close.”
She said to the rest, “Let’s stay back first.”
With that, she pulled Dou Xiangling’s arm and the group took a few steps back.
Subsequently, Zi Yi called out Shadow and Shadow II. “Shadow II, go and search for Ian and the rest. Shadow will scan the situation inside and identify whether there are any unknown viruses in their bodies.”
“Yes, Master.”
After the two robots responded, both of them moved at the same time.
Looking at Shadow walking into the living room, Lu Jingye asked, “Yiyi, what is going on?”
Zi Yi explained to them about her conversation with the Third Princess and said, “If my guess is right, everyone here was infected with a virus that will make them act like a zombie.”
“A zombie virus?” Dou Zerui widened his eyes in astonishment. “Do you mean they are like the type of zombies from those fantasy movies that show the end of the world?”
“It’s different.” Zi Yi said, “Those types of zombies are caused by the deterioration of the environment, but this virus is man-made. It’s possible that there are many people all around the world that have this virus lying dormant in their bodies.”
“Siii-” Dou Zerui gasped.
Lu Jingye asked, “How long can this type of virus remain dormant? Would it cause a large outbreak? What would be the most severe consequences if there is an outbreak?”
“I don’t know.”
Dou Zerui and Dou Xiangling’s expressions changed after hearing Zi Yi’s response.
If even Zi Yi did not know the answer, how terrifying would the consequences be?
Zi Yi said, “This virus is quite different from the zombie virus. The research lab that the Third Princess is in has done a study on this virus but to no avail. To understand more, I have to do research on someone who has been severely infected by the virus.”
“Where will you be conducting the research? What do you need?” Lu Jingye would always think a step further than the others. With that, he took out his phone and said, “I’ll get people to prepare them right away.”
Zi Yi thought about it and said, “After finding Ian and the rest, I’ll make a trip to the Third Princess’ laboratory first to have a look. Get people to prepare… these items. After that, send the following equipment and materials from the laboratory at home…”
“Ok.” Lu Jingye dialed a number and soon he had passed the orders down.
Just then, Zi Yi said to the guard, “Bring some people to block off the Count’s Mansion. Don’t let outsiders in nor allow anyone outside. Also, get everyone to take safety precautions. It’s best that no one gets close to here.”
It was obvious that there were many people infected with the virus inside the Count’s Mansion. At this moment, they could only prevent anyone from leaving.
“I understand.” Even though the guard was frightened, he immediately acted on her orders.
The four of them stood there and waited for around five minutes before Shadow II brought Ian out.
At the sight of Ian, Dou Xiangling hastily asked, “Ian, are you alright?”
There was some dust on Ian’s face and he no longer gave off his usual gentlemanly demeanor and clean look. He did not make his way over at the sight of them. Instead, he remained where he was standing and answered Dou Xiangling, “I’m fine.”
He even gave her a smile. However, one could sense that he was not smiling sincerely from the bottom of his heart.
Dou Xiangling wanted to approach him.
Ian quickly shouted and stopped her, “Xiangling, don’t come over. There’s dust all over me, I’m dirty.”
At the same time, Zi Yi pulled Dou Xiangling and said with a serious tone of voice, “Ian’s infected with the virus.”
“What?” Dou Xiangling and Dou Zerui cried out in alarm simultaneously.
Dou Xiangling covered her mouth and she was so worried that tears were about to spill from her eyes.
Ian was worried at her behavior and hastily said, “Xiangling, don’t cry. I’m really fine. We have Zi Yi here and even if I’m infected with a severe virus, she is capable of curing me. What’s more, didn’t we discuss last night that we would give birth to more babies than your cousin?”
Dou Xiangling did not expect Ian to reveal such a private conversation in front of such a large crowd. She was angry and embarrassed at the same time. She glared at him with watery eyes.
Ian smiled at her.
Dou Xiangling looked away and turned to Zi Yi. “Yiyi, what should we do with Ian now?”
Zi Yi gave her a look to calm her down before she asked Ian, “Where’s the Count and Countess?”
“I tied up Father in the attic. Mother is also locked in the basement.”
It seems like Ian had noticed something amiss with them when he returned and he had also made many preventive measures.
Zi Yi nodded her head in satisfaction and asked again, “Do you know how many people here were injured by the Countess?”
“There are many of them. I have also tied them up.”
“Mhmm. You did well.” Zi Yi praised him and asked, “Are you injured?”
“I have a few small cuts on my body.”
“How are you feeling right now?”
Ian fell into silence.
Dou Xiangling and Dou Zerui started to get anxious.
Ian said, “I feel that it’s hard for me to move my legs to walk. I can’t quite lift my arms either.”
When the group looked at Ian carefully, they discovered that he was standing there rather stiffly.
“Cousin, what should we do? Is Ian about to lose his consciousness very soon?”
In fact, Ian was also a little afraid. However, to prevent Dou Xiangling from worrying about him, he maintained a calm look on his face.
Zi Yi was unable to give an accurate diagnosis as to when Ian would lose his consciousness. She got Shadow to pass her a few silver needles and said to Ian, “I don’t know how long it will take for you to lose consciousness. So, I’ll seal your main acupuncture points which will stop the virus from spreading to your brain.”
Ian nodded his head. “Ok.”
With a wave of her hand, a few silver needles were accurately inserted into Ian’s acupuncture points.
“Shadow II, send Ian back to his room and lie him down on the bed.”
Shadow II carried Ian and left.
Dou Xiangling wanted to give chase, but Dou Zerui pulled her back.
“Sister, you shouldn’t go.”
“But…”
“We shouldn’t cause trouble for Zi Yi at this moment.”
In the end, Dou Xiangling nodded her head in defeat.
After they waited for Shadow II to return, she said, “Activate the sterilization system in your body and kill all the viruses on your body.”
The two robots activated the system right away.
Just then, Zi Yi’s phone rang.
She took out her phone and saw that Little Loli sent her a video.
Little Loli explained the situation that happened on her end to Zi Yi.
Zi Yi asked, “Does Qin Ze still have his consciousness now?”
“Yes, but I knocked him out.”
“You’ve done well.”
