383: Secret Room

Secret Room

Qin Yi felt that it wasn't so simple as well, but no matter what, she still had to take a look. If something went wrong, she still had the Origin Space.1

The lights were on in the Grapefruit district villa no. 1. Qin Yi and Yun Huan slowly got closer, and then Yun Huan was right next to Qin Yi. His peach blossom eyes narrowed dangerously. There was something off about this place.

"Be careful," Qin Yi reminded him. At the same time, she released her mental strength, but she retracted it in a few moments with knitted brows.

"What is it?" Yun Huan instinctively wanted to smooth out Qin Yi's knitted brows. His little fella wasn't suited to use this sort of expression; she should be carefree and willful.

However, Yun Huan didn't do anything in the end. He hadn't forgotten that he was still atoning for his mistakes.

At this critical juncture, Qin Yi didn't think so much, simply telling Yun Huan, "There is nobody inside. Not a single person."

Her mental strength didn't sense any activity, so where was Dr. Lin? Where did he go?

Yun Huan understood.

"Let's go in and take a look."

That was what he said, but when he entered, he stood in front of Qin Yi and blocked her. The brightly lit house was silent, and there wasn't anyone inside.

Qin Yi's phoenix eyes shifted as if there were countless lights flashing by. "Could it be a secret room?"

Secret rooms were very common in the apocalypse world. In her previous life, Qin Yi was locked up in a secret room in the lab, and she knew that it was just one of the many labs Dr. Lin had.

Dr. Lin was very mysterious because of this. You would never know where he would be at the very next second and you wouldn't be able to find him unless he was looking for you or if he appeared on his own.

Yun Huan nodded. He had thought of this as well. Qin Yi and Yun Huan felt around and soon found the switch. There was a long tunnel leading to the entrance of the secret room. 

Qin Yi really had to give it to Dr. Lin. As the saying went, 'A crafty hare has three burrows.' He had so many secret rooms—she didn't know how Dr. Lin managed to do it.

Yun Huan walked in front of Qin Yi. The tunnel was dark, and he created a small flame with his fingertip. The orange flame lit up the entire tunnel and Yun Huan held Qin Yi's hand as he spoke sternly, "It's safer this way."

Qin Yi's mouth twitched, not bothering to expose a certain someone. It was a unique situation right now, so she let him be.

Yun Huan held her soft and tender little hand happily, then instructed Qin Yi, "When I ask you to run later, just run. Don't worry about me."

In the dimly lit space, he didn't know what might happen. With unexpected dangers lurking everywhere, he was worried that if he reacted slightly too late, the little fella might get hurt.

He must bear all the risks. With him by her side, he wouldn't allow the little fella to be hurt at all. This was his goal.

Qin Yi was indifferent. She couldn't explain what she was feeling at the moment. She acknowledged everything that Yun Huan was doing. Drop by drop, like a drizzle, slowly breaking up her walls, he was slowly eating away her heart.

Qin Yi didn't say a word, but Yun Huan didn't find anything strange. 

He pulled Qin Yi's hand and went forward carefully, but the weird thing was that nothing was happening along this tunnel.

Even so, both Qin Yi and Yun Huan were on high alert. This sort of situation was even scarier than the usual ones.

Yun Huan held Qin Yi's hand and finally reached the end. He pushed the door open, leaning Qin Yi stunned. 

The lab was huge and there were many containers present, all of them with living humans inside them.
