Reborn: I Stock Up and Bully the Trash to Dominate the Apocalypse

Chapter 1236

"At first, I thought she was just studying Xiao Sheng's blood sample, since we had tested it many times before without any breakthrough. But later I realized something was wrong."

"This afternoon, she rarely went out, so I took the opportunity to secretly open that small box. The blood sample tube inside had been replaced, and the label on it clearly showed the initials of Zhou Shuwan! It wasn't Xiao Sheng's at all!"

The chill around Mu Mu intensified.

The thought that Lin Wei had secretly plotted against Zhou Shuwan and even silently took her blood sample for research instantly ignited anger and resentment in his eyes, but he quickly calmed down.

He said to Xiaoxue in a deep voice, "Go back first, and pretend nothing happened, understand?"

Xiaoxue frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "So... what are you going to do?"

Mu Mu turned her head to look at her, her eyes firm: "Don't worry, I have my own plans and I will never let this matter involve you. Just do your own thing and don't let Lin Wei see through my disguise."

Xiaoxue's brows remained furrowed; as if she had made up her mind, she looked up at Mumu.

"Mumu, I know you're angry, but... but Sister Lin, she was just doing research, for the technological advancement of the base."

“You know how tough things are for us right now. High temperatures, boiling water, and so many unknown dangers—survival is so difficult. She just wanted to research something useful as soon as possible so that everyone could have an easier time. She…she’s not a bad person…”

Before she could finish speaking, she met Mu Mu's gaze.

That look in his eyes was cold and carried a chilling edge.

The rest of her words got stuck in her throat, and she couldn't say them anymore.

Mu Mu didn't look at her again, and repeated in a cold tone: "You should go back now."

After saying that, he turned and went back.

Xiaoxue hesitated for a while before leaving, looking preoccupied.

Upon returning to the training ground, the last trace of restraint on Mu Mu's face completely vanished, leaving only an unyielding gloom.

Qi Mingyu glanced at him and, seeing that he quickly immersed himself in training, did not rush over.

Ten minutes later it was time for a training break, and the team members dispersed in twos and threes to drink water and wipe their sweat.

Mu Mu then came to Qi Mingyu's side, her face grim, and blurted out, "Brother-in-law, did my sister eat the canned tomatoes that Lin Wei gave us?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Mingyu was taken aback, and his expression changed instantly.

He was incredibly clever; the moment Mu Mu uttered those words, he instantly grasped the key point.

His face immediately darkened, and he asked in a deep voice, "What happened? Is there something wrong with that canned food?"

Mu Mu didn't beat around the bush and whispered back everything Xiao Xue had told him.

Qi Mingyu's face darkened completely.

He had known Lin Wei for many years, but he never expected that she would be so obsessive!

Despite repeated warnings, they still resorted to such dishonorable means to obtain Wanwan's blood sample and secretly conducted research.

What is she really thinking?!

Mu Mu saw Qi Mingyu's expression and her anger intensified, which also made her feel annoyed with Qi Mingyu.

He said, enunciating each word clearly, "Brother-in-law, let me make this clear: if anything happens to my sister because of this, no matter how capable Lin Wei is or how much she has contributed to the base, I will make her pay with her life for my sister!"

The decisiveness and ruthlessness in those words were crystal clear, leaving no room for joking.

Zhou Shuwan is someone he would protect with his life; no one can touch her, not even Lin Wei.

Qi Mingyu, however, had calmed down: "Wanwan's health is perfectly normal. She had her blood tested when she was hospitalized before, and there were no abnormalities at all. The same goes for Xiaosheng. Lin Wei tested Xiaosheng's blood countless times, but she didn't find anything..."

“But we can’t just sit here and wait to die!” Mu Mu looked at him intently. “She has already threatened our safety!”

Qi Mingyu discerned something from his expression.

He was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Okay!"

Mu Mu's anger subsided somewhat.

Qi Mingyu raised his head and met Mu Mu's gaze.

He understood what he meant.

After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "Okay."

The anger on Mu Mu's face gradually subsided.

When she got back, Zhou Shuwan was also a little surprised.

Mu Mu asked, "Sis, didn't Lin Wei give you a jar of canned tomatoes a while ago? Did you eat it?"

Zhou Shuwan nodded: "I did take a bottle a few days ago. But I didn't feel anything unusual!"

"You've fallen into a deep sleep?"

Zhou Shuwan recalled what happened that day: "After eating that can of food, I felt extremely sleepy for most of the day. Later, I drifted off to sleep, thinking it was because I had been too exhausted recently and hadn't rested well. When I woke up, I didn't feel anything unusual, so I didn't pay much attention to it. Besides, the door was locked from the inside..."

She paused and said nothing more.

She remembered that recently, because she was worried that her parents wouldn't be able to find her, she had simply closed the door but hadn't locked it.

It seems that Lin Wei entered the company around that time.

She was very careful, and at least Zhou Shuwan didn't find anything wrong with her body when she woke up.

Zhou Shuwan's gaze was deep and unfathomable. She hadn't been staring at Lin Wei for the past few days because of a headache.

Unexpectedly, the other party had done something big without anyone noticing.

"What are you planning to do?" she asked.

Mu Mu whispered, "Sister, don't worry about it. I already have an idea."

"Mu Mu!" Zhou Shuwan emphasized, looking at him with a serious expression.

Mu Mu suddenly lowered her head and smiled: "Sister, what do you think I'm going to do? Tie her up in a deserted corner and kill her? Don't worry, I'm not that stupid!"

His eyes were very clear.

Zhou Shuwan felt inexplicably uneasy and solemnly warned again, "Mumu, your brother-in-law and I will handle this matter. Just stay put and don't move!"

Seeing that Mu Mu remained silent, Zhou Shuwan asked again, "Did you hear me?"

Mu Mu innocently spread her hands: "I just stayed put and didn't move!"

Zhou Shuwan glared at him.

Qi Mingyu gave Mu Mu a warning look, then comforted Zhou Shuwan: "Don't worry, we have to take immediate action on this!"

Zhou Shuwan wasn't as anxious as they thought. Instead, she slowly said, "Actually, it's practically impossible to detect a person's talent based on blood tests! But I suspect that Lin Wei must have guessed the truth..."

Qi Mingyu and Mu Mu's expressions both changed.

Zhou Shuwan shared her analysis: "Actually, although we were very careful, some clues were impossible to hide. For example, the amount of minerals we brought back, the giant machinery and 'fire seed' containers that suddenly appeared in the fleet, and the whale meat in the current inventory..."

Because of the successive disasters, Zhou Shuwan had already stored most of the supplies in her inventory in her spatial storage space.

And every now and then, when a certain resource is almost depleted, she will return a portion of it.

This ensures the base has ample supplies and eliminates concerns about damage caused by weather disasters.

Captain Chen must have his own guesses about this matter.
