Apocalypse Invasion: Survival on the Infinite Train
Ming Chu fell silent.
The side quest had been accepted, but the problem now was how to convince them.
Seeing Professor Wang Rui and her assistant about to leave, Ming Chu bit the bullet and rushed over.
"Professor Wang, Professor Wang!"
Wang Rui's white hair was a result of premature graying combined with overwork. Her short, white hair was neatly groomed, and her expression was gentle. Even when suddenly intercepted by Ming Chu, she didn't get angry; instead, she asked softly, "Hello, student. Is there something you need my help with?"
"Yes, Professor..." Ming Chu racked her brains and answered quickly, "I've been thinking about research in viruses and genetics lately. I've heard you are a big name in this field, and I wanted to ask a few questions..."
The sun was scorching outside. Although Professor Wang Rui was good-tempered, she wasn't used to the heat.
She wiped the sweat from her forehead and said gently to Ming Chu, "Your topic is quite broad. Why don't you come back with me? We can talk about it slowly at my place."
"Sure, but I have a car. Shall we go to the car first?" Ming Chu pointed to the vehicle nearby.
The car nearby was a seven-seater SUV, quite large, and the air conditioning was running.
Professor Wang Rui wanted to say, "My place isn't far."
"It's faster by car. Professor Wang, your face is sunburned. It's just a short drive, it's no big deal." Ming Chu urged her strongly.
Professor Wang Rui was actually a bit hesitant, but the assistant beside her said in a low voice, "Professor, you can't stay out in this sun. It wouldn't be good if you got heatstroke."
"Sigh, alright then." Professor Wang Rui thought about it and got into the car.
The car door had been left unlocked. Ming Chu let Professor Wang Rui get into the second row, and the assistant followed. After climbing in, Ming Chu simply sat on the small storage box between the driver and passenger seats, facing Professor Wang Rui.
She deliberated for a moment before saying, "Professor, it's like this. On my way to school today, I saw something. Someone jumped from the 10th floor and didn't die; instead, they were able to get back up, and they were biting people..."
Ming Chu recounted what she had seen today and then asked, "I wanted to ask you, is it possible that she had a genetic mutation?"
