Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 1742 Split and Dislocation

"That, ha,"

Nika breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the ground at Badude's feet, and said to the cracked gray tiles: "He said as if we were about to fight. If you have anything to explain, you go over and talk to them That's enough, right? You've always been reasonable."

Those who can be called to help by Batoude have some kind of sympathy and respect for him. No one wants to tear their faces; , they can breathe a sigh of relief.

"Yeah, we know you just care about ordinary people, after all you—"

Another evolutionary from behind said this, suddenly stopped, and murmured in a low tone: "We all understand your concern for ordinary people... Let's go, everyone will go with you."

Their attitudes were understanding and polite, and they only talked for a long time, but Batoude kept holding his arms, his eyes only looked at a crushed iron bucket on the opposite side of the city road, and he didn't say a word.As he remained silent, the voices of others gradually died down.

The nearby residents have long been dead and scattered; this section of the city road suddenly became quiet as if someone dug it out from the disaster of Fanjia City.

Maybe a little too quiet.

Just now Lin Sanjiu could clearly hear the wailing noise in the distance, but now it was so faint that it looked like a hallucination on the edge of the nerves.Is it because everyone evacuated?That's why the voice gradually lowered?

"Batoude, talk to me." Nika seemed a little uneasy, and urged to break the silence.

The eight-headed virtue remained the same, without saying a word.

When several evolutionists hesitated and took two steps towards him, Zhong Qing stepped back slightly, stood beside Lin Sanjiu, and whispered, "He really cares about ordinary people."

Lin Sanjiu was slightly surprised.Zhong Qing gave her the feeling that she didn't look like the type of person who would find nothing to say and would talk about the scene - Zhong Qing soon proved that her feeling was right.

"He cares so much about ordinary people," he went on steadily, "but not so much about them."

Lin Sanjiu glanced at him quickly, raised his hand to block a layer of consciousness in front of the two, and asked, "What do you mean?"

"The mutation of ordinary people is a fact that we have witnessed with our own eyes." Zhong Qing turned his eyes on the transparent consciousness, and said, "He doesn't want to admit it, it's easy to understand, after all, this is a blow to him. But otherwise The fact is that not every ordinary person will mutate. He let go of the young man whose eyes were injured just now, and told him to go to the place where ordinary people gather in Xichengkou, so he is not worried about the safety of others?"

Lin Sanjiu immediately understood.She recalled Batoude's tone of voice when he advised the young man to "just have one eye", and she was filled with genuine pain; no, maybe he was blinded by a leaf, who stipulates that a person with a good heart must have a clear head?
"If he didn't expect it, then forget it. But the long knife you raised has clearly indicated the most terrifying possibility." Zhongqing said in a low voice, "If it were me, I would not let that eye Wounded men approach anyone I care about."

"Don't you... think he's performing?" Lin Sanjiu asked in a low voice, looking at Batoude's back.

"I don't know if it's a show or not," Zhong Qing lowered his head, and he couldn't even make his mouth move when he spoke, "but this situation is a bit too black and white, which makes it hard for me to swallow."

"Black and white?"

"The management organization that usually only collects taxes and doesn't care about affairs, after something happened, faced with the people who are dedicated to the public, they were suspicious and suppressed, and even hinted that he caused the mutation." Zhong Qing glanced at Lin Sanjiu , The tone is still calm. "If it was a TV series, I would think the plot would be too clichéd. Take away the preconceived notions about both sides, and what facts do you get?"

He turned his eyes away and didn't continue talking.

He didn't need to go on.If the adjectives such as "only take money and don't do anything" and "respected" are removed, only the most basic and naked facts are left in front of us: the local management organization found that an evolutionary was acting suspiciously through investigation.

Lin Sanjiu bit her lips, and it took a long time to retort: ​​"...What Guihe said may not be the truth."

Eight-headed German just sighed at this moment and lowered his arms.The expressions of the several evolutionists around him were slightly relaxed - the eight-headed German obviously listened to the persuasion.

how can that be possible?
Lin Sanjiu's keen intuition has saved her countless times, and at this time it always conveys the same signal to her: Batoude's emotions are both strong and real.

She herself had struggled in anxiety and panic, ran, and desperately protected her friends. At that time, she must have been exactly the same persistent and stubborn, and she might even look innocent and stupid to outsiders.She doesn't need to use reason to analyze, and she can resonate with Badude's emotions.

Here lies the problem: when she put aside her keen intuition and began to analyze rationally, she had to admit that what Zhong Qing said made sense.

The behavior of the eight-headed virtue really cannot be explained by the phrase "care leads to chaos".He is not a real idiot, if he sees a young man's eyes hurt, he will be so sad; then how come the hundreds of thousands of ordinary people's lives in Xichengkou have not entered Batou De's mind?

Even if he really cared too much about the young man, there was no reason to let him go to Xichengkou.If the injury is just a coincidence, then let him stay. There are all evolutionaries present. Maybe someone has something that can heal the injury and can lend it to him. If the injury is not a coincidence, let him stay with the evolution. It's better than releasing it to the general population, right?
"Okay," Batou De, who was not far away, was saying to the people around him at this moment: "Since you all think this is a good idea..."

"Of course." Seeing that the situation didn't have to take the worst step, Nika even showed some gratitude on her face, and said, "Don't worry, we won't watch Guihe mess around."

Obviously it was Guihe who discovered the suspicious point, but he was playing the role of a bad guy, Lin Sanjiu thought a little uncomfortable.

If it hadn't been for Zhong Qing's reminder, she would not have realized the split and dislocation of Batou De's emotion and behavior for a while; now it seems that other evolutionists have never doubted him——as a group animal, whether human beings have strong emotions for the same kind Really, more or less will be aware of it.So when he let go of the young man with the injured eye, Dirty Braid's first reaction would be "It seems that the young man is not a mutant", not "There is a problem with the eight-headed virtue".

"Okay," Batou De said again, "then let's go."

The ordinary people who went to Xichengkou just now walked to the right after passing Lin Sanjiu; Batou De had been appeasing the evacuated crowd before, so he stood on the left hand side of Lin Sanjiu——the rest of the evolutionaries all stood to her right.At this time, everyone was going to go to Xichengkou, so naturally they had to go to the right together.

Right... these two words stuck in Lin Sanjiu's mind for some reason.The city road on the right ushered in a turn about ten meters away, and it was very quiet.

Nika turned around first, glanced at the two people standing quietly by the side of the road, and greeted them, "You'll be fine, let's go", and then walked to the right—when she walked out three At four steps, Lin Sanjiu rushed up from behind.

Nika was startled by the wind and turned her head, and subconsciously raised her hand to block it; however, Lin Sanjiu's speed far exceeded her reaction speed, and she had already grabbed her arm and pulled her back forcefully—— In the smooth and quiet city road, an angry exclamation suddenly sounded: "What are you doing!"

Nothing happened in the city road until Nika stood firm, even Lin Sanjiu himself was a little surprised.

She guessed wrong?

"Wait a minute, let me go over and take a look, I think something is wrong." She said without looking back, and the [Protective Force Field] lit up.When she walked along the wall and rounded the corner with full vigilance, the evolutionaries behind her all fell silent, but Nika followed her rather unhappily, and asked, "What do you want to see—"

Immediately, there was a gasping sound in the city road.

...You guessed it right.

In the city road ahead, a huge pink and white armor completely blocked the way.Because it stretched too long, it was crooked and crooked, like a festering but hard flower, layered and coiled in the center of the city road; a faint cold light shone on the edge of each layer.

"It's the same as I thought," Lin Sanjiu said, "We don't know when we got stuck here. No wonder the surroundings suddenly became so quiet."

Nika looked at it, then looked down at her nails, her complexion became ugly.

"Yes, is it the one with the eye injury just now?" She murmured, "It must be him, he has learned to be smart, and he replaced it with a part that doesn't matter even if it is injured, and others can't see it... "

Not only Nika—including Lin Sanjiu, when everyone heard footsteps slowly coming up from behind, they all turned their heads together.

Probably everyone has noticed who is walking up at this time.

Eight-headed German looked up and down for a while at the mutants blocking the way, looked at the crowd, and smiled.After opening his wide mouth, he showed a set of white and neat teeth, and said, "Now, we can't go to Xichengkou."
