Chapter 127: Immunity (2)

After closing the door, Ye Xingchen left with Mo Qi and Lin Sijia.

“Did we guess wrong before? It had been two days. Logically speaking, if he had mutated, he should have done so long ago. With so many wounds on his body, he should have mutated by now, right?”

Ye Xingchen was a little curious. After all, although Lin Pei’s injuries were not as serious as Zhao Hao’s, they were not light either. He could not figure out why the others had all mutated, but Lin Pei was the only one who had not reacted.

He didn’t look like the group with light injuries.

“I’m not sure. I’ll make a list for you later. See if you can tidy up a room for me to use as a research lab.”

Lin Sijia had learned about it before. Although prions were rare, rabies was a relatively common virus.

Even if it wasn’t for Ye Xingchen, Lin Sijia was eager to find out what this thing was. She had never seen such a strange virus before.

The day passed quickly. Ye Xingchen put down a bag of bread and a pan of snow water for Lin Pei and returned to his room.

Lin Sijia excitedly went to do the experiment. She didn’t expect Ye Xingchen’s space to have everything. After all, there were many instruments that were commonly seen outside.

She didn’t know that many of the things here were junk that Ye Xingchen had collected from the suburban warehouse area when he went out. Ye Xingchen didn’t think that this junk would actually be useful.

After a night, not only did Lin Pei not mutate, but his condition seemed to have improved a little.

Lin Sijia cut out the rotten flesh from every bite or scratch wound on his body and bandaged it to reduce the inflammation.

“How do you feel today?”

Ye Xingchen came to ask Lin Pei as usual and even placed the food on his bed.

“I feel much better today! Thank you, Brother Ye! It’s all thanks to you. Otherwise, 1 would definitely be dead!”

Lin Pei thought that Ye Xingchen was here to show concern for him, and he was extremely touched. However, Ye Xingchen was only here out of curiosity. After all, Ye Xingchen actually wanted Lin Sijia to develop a medicine that could treat this illness.

Ye Xingchen couldn’t guarantee that he wouldn’t be injured by these things. Even if there was only a 0.001% chance, as long as he went out, the risk would still exist.

Five days had passed. For the past few days, other than eating and sleeping, Lin Sijia had been working in the small room that Ye Xingchen had prepared for her.

“Sigh, it’s been a long time.”

Ye Xingchen was watching a movie with Mo Qi in the living room. Lin Sijia had been busy for the past few days. Ye Xingchen had his own selfish motives. He knew that if Lin Sijia could figure out how this virus spread, it would benefit him greatly too. However, Ye Xingchen could not help but complain.

After all, Lin Sijia hadn’t been cooking for the past few days. He and Mo Qi had been eating ready-made food in the space.

Mo Qi ate happily, thinking that she had never eaten these things before the apocalypse, but Ye Xingchen was not so happy.

No matter how delicious these delicacies were, one would still get sick of them after eating too much. Even if the food made outside was indeed delicious, after eating too much, one really missed Lin Sijia’s home-cooked dishes.

Zhao Hao and Li Anran stayed here in peace. However, Zhao Hao’s sense of presence was very low. Perhaps it was because he didn’t want to trouble Ye Xingchen. Before they moved in, Zhao Hao would send Ye Xingchen messages every day. Now, Zhao Hao did not send any messages at all.

Of course, it was also possible that Li Anran had finally fulfilled her wish and no longer forced Zhao Hao to look for Ye Xingchen.

However, no matter what the situation was, at least Zhao Hao was not far from him. Ye Xingchen immediately felt that the defense level of his small villa was several times higher.

It was just that Li Anran was really annoying.

She had the opportunity to move in because of Zhao Hao, but she was really too greedy. She even tried to ask Ye Xingchen to bring her baby supplies.

She had clearly come in with bags big and small. She had prepared everything. It was easy for Ye Xingchen to guess what kind of words she had brainwashed Zhao Hao with again.

“Sigh, I have to think of a way to get rid of this woman.”

While Ye Xingchen was thinking about how, without hurting his relationship with Zhao Hao, he could secretly send Li Anran out, and how it would be best if he killed her, Lin Sijia came out of her research room.

Lin Sijia’s face was filled with obvious fatigue, but she couldn’t hide the excitement on her face.

“How is it?”

Ye Xingchen went up to Lin Sijia and hugged her tightly, massaging her shoulders.

“Are the results out? What’s your conclusion?”

Lin Sijia shook her head and nodded.

“1 can’t say that the result is complete, but what 1 deduced should be about the same as what we guessed before.”

“It’s indeed contagious through bodily secretions. If it’s a scratch, it’ll be contagious if the wound sees blood.”

“Not to mention a bite. Saliva comes into direct contact with the blood of the human body.”

“But 1 discovered something amazing! Why do you think Lin Pei didn’t mutate?”

“You guessed right. Actually, Lin Pei should have been infected, but he actually produced antibodies for this virus. In other words, he is immune to this virus!”

When Lin Sijia said this, her eyes lit up.

“Although I don’t know why, it’s really amazing. I originally thought that this virus was incurable. After all, once infected with prions, one would definitely die. Not to mention this is a mutated version of the prion virus.”

After Lin Sijia said that, Ye Xingchen suddenly remembered a person — Zhang Yi.

For some reason, when Lin Sijia mentioned the prion virus, Ye Xingchen thought of a question.

Previously, when Lin Pei came over to seek refuge with Ye Xingchen, Ye Xingchen had asked him if he had eaten sour meat before. However, while Lin Pei was indeed so hungry that he was about to die, he was unwilling to eat any sour meat.

The reason why Ye Xingchen thought of Zhang Yi was because Zhang Yi had previously captured Lin Sijia and locked her up. They had once wanted to force Lin Sijia to become their exclusive doctor.

After Lin Sijia was rescued by Ye Xingchen, she told him something.

That was when Zhang Yi joined forces with everyone to attack Ye Xingchen’s villa, he had provided everyone with free food.

Each of them received a piece of meat the size of a palm.

According to Lin Sijia, these pieces of meat should have been cut off from the corpses..
