After Li Xiao finished speaking, he stared at Mu Qiantong firmly, not missing the subtle expression changes on her face.

"Was the person just now Lu Yan?" Li Xiao asked calmly.

Mu Qiantong pricked the palm of his hand with his nails, and replied: "Yes."

"It's fine." Li Xiao said, "We can't stay in the imperial capital for long, we must leave as soon as possible."

This is undoubtedly in the hands of Mu Qiantong, but the seeds of doubt are already planted in her heart, and she doesn't know who else she can trust.

Stabilizing his emotions, Mu Qiantong asked, "Now?"

It's late at night, and it's understandable to enter the city at this time, but to leave the city at this time, it's like writing "I have a problem, catch me" on your face and rushing in front of the city defenders!

Of course Li Xiao denied: "No, it's too hasty to go now, and it is easy to attract unnecessary attention. At least we have to wait until tomorrow morning to find a team to go out of the city. There is now a set of task mechanisms in the imperial capital, which gathers supernatural beings and ordinary people to complete the mission. Various missions, in view of the fact that the entire imperial capital is now blocked, we can go out of the city with some teams of supernatural beings, or simply form a small team to act by ourselves."

It's fine if you don't leave tonight, Mu Qiantong asked again: "Brother, did they escape?"

Li Xiao said, "I probably haven't caught it yet."

It was only at this moment that Mu Qiantong felt relieved, she took out her sleeping bag and said, "Then go to bed early, I will go and have a look with you tomorrow."

Li Xiao swept across her slightly trembling hands, and said calmly, "Okay. But you go to bed first, I'll go out and look for Guo Ling."

Mu Qiantong nodded indiscriminately, got into her sleeping bag, and fell asleep in another direction, listening to the sound of footsteps behind her.

In the middle of the moon, a figure quietly came to the roof.

Mu Qiantong quietly observed the rooftop outside, but didn't find anything unusual. Just as she was about to open the door to go out, her outstretched hand was suddenly grabbed by someone, and then she was pulled into the arms of the person behind her, and her mouth was tightly covered!

Although Mu Qiantong struggled hard, the person behind her remained motionless.A few seconds later, a black shadow passed by the roof outside the door.If Mu Qiantong had stepped out just now, he would undoubtedly be discovered by that thing.

Li Xiao took two steps back, pulled Mu Qiantong into the shadows, and whispered in her ear, "Shall we talk in the gang territory or here?" After asking, his hands loosened a little.

Mu Qiantong exhaled: "The gang has territory."

The two returned to the gang territory one after the other. Li Xiao said, "I saw Guo Ling. His father encountered some troubles. He asked me to tell him that he had to leave for the time being. His brother tried to find a way to get rid of him He got it out, and left some people to help us, so we will leave the city early tomorrow morning."

Mu Qiantong looked at his calm face, with countless emotions surging in her heart.For a while, Wen Yu's pale face, for a while, Yu Yang's cold sword, for a while, the scene when Wen Yu left the team a long time ago, and for a while, the letter sent by Li Xiao.

Shaking her head, she took a step back: "I want to save Xiaoyu..."

Li Xiao suddenly strode in front of her, and said condescendingly: "You questioned your comrades in the enemy's territory?!"

"You sent that letter!" The city wall in Mu Qiantong's heart was shattered by these words, and it collapsed. They only attacked her when the matter was leaked!"

Li Xiao looked straight into her eyes, and said word by word: "There is only one person who knows this news, and that is my immediate superior."

Mu Qiantong asked back: "So what?! Xiaoyu has become like this, my brother and the others are also wanted, and now we, we... Isn't this the result of the fact that we have a system leaked?! "

Li Xiao's expression was solemn, and every word was resounding: "This news will put you in danger. My immediate superiors will never do anything that may put you in danger."

Mu Qiantong was startled, and finally met Li Xiao's eyes.

Li Xiao repeated: "He will never do anything that may put you in danger."

Mu Qiantong staggered back a step, feeling a little panicked and confused, as if the back figure who resolutely left many years ago reappeared in front of her eyes.

Li Xiao took another step towards her, and reached out to wipe away the tears on her cheeks: "It will be dawn soon, let's make preparations now, huh?"

Mu Qiantong lowered her head: "The Xiaoyu matter... and my brother's matter... What's going on?"

Li Xiao sighed, held her face in his hands, and stared into her eyes: "Before I say anything, I hope you have a firm belief: at any time, there are people who are working hard for this country wholeheartedly."

Mu Qiantong looked at him, and after a while, gave a soft "hmm".

"After the disaster, the power of the imperial capital was completely reshuffled. Many people were unwilling to accept the original power distribution model and recruited personnel by themselves, hoping to gain a foothold in this disaster. Therefore, the actual control of the imperial capital has now fallen into the hands of a group of more radical people."

Mu Qiantong couldn't help but think of the many cities and people she met along the way.

She has experienced some things, and she has seen power- and money-oriented people around her adoptive father and elder brother. It is not difficult to understand what those people who fight for power and profit after the disaster think.

No one is willing to be a subordinate for a lifetime, power and money are too terrifyingly attractive.What is a disaster for the people is an excellent opportunity for some people who are just about to move.

Communications and transportation are interrupted, and various places are relatively closed. Rampant zombies and mutated creatures have caused many cities to fall, and the wilderness is full of dangers. Every human settlement is almost like an independent small kingdom, even the imperial capital is no exception.

"The letter must have been handed over to that person, and he must have not shared the information with other people in the imperial capital. First, he will not harm you. Second, the faction he belonged to has lost power in the competition for the highest power in the imperial capital. They left temporarily The imperial capital, went to province n. We didn’t reveal anything about the system during the battle. Those who cheated Wen Yu at most knew that you have the ability to heal others. I personally infer..." Li Xiao observed Mu Qiantong After confirming that she had calmed down, she said, "Maybe Wen Yu trusted the people in the research institute."

Mu Qiantong had calculated everything, but she missed the possibility that Wen Yu had harmed herself, or she subconsciously just wanted to vent the grief and anger in her heart, so she deliberately missed this possibility.

Li Xiao held her face all the time, without giving her a chance to turn her head or bow her head: "Now calm down a little bit. Can you make up? Change your appearance, let's eat a little, and then go out to find Guo Ling's people, they They will help us find a way to get out of the city, and we can only ask them to solve the follow-up troubles. You have received news from Wen Yu? Where is Lu Yan?"

Only then did Mu Qiantong confess: "Yes... She, the person with the Xuan character zero and one system, and Lu Yan are all in a small town in the west of the imperial capital."

Li Xiao comforted: "Don't worry, Konoha and the others are sure to be safe. I'm hungry."

There is really no logical connection between these two sentences, Mu Qiantong couldn't help breaking his tears into a smile, turned his face to wipe away the tears, simply sat on the floor, and put out some hot dishes that he had made before: "Eat."

Stepping into the warm morning sun of the next day, a timid girl with a handsome appearance followed an unscrupulous young man, like many supernatural beings who came to the imperial capital for the first time, and went around the square where teammates were recruited. Wander around, looking for a reliable team to go out of the city to do missions, and get a bite to eat.

After walking a third of the square, the young men took a fancy to a team. Their requirements were not high, and the treatment they gave was relatively poor. Some powerful people left after asking. Yes, they don't like it either.

After talking to the team leader for a few words, the young man turned his head and nodded to the timid girl, and the two of them sat on the back of the giant domestic cat raised by one person in the team.After waiting for a while, the last required superhuman was recruited, and this ordinary team set off.

There is no problem in the process of leaving the city. This team is too ordinary, and adding a gold-type ability user and a portable space ability user is also unremarkable.

Cats walk much more gently than dogs, without bumps at all. Mu Qiantong likes to sit on the cat's back very much.Because something happened not long ago, there are armed soldiers patrolling the road outside the city, but they are quite far away.

Seeing the huge pigeons flying over his head, Mu Qiantong understood that those flying around last night were probably similar birds, such as owls, which were controlled by some supernatural beings and constituted the latest surveillance system in the capital.

"Newcomers." In fact, in addition to animal surveillance, there are also some people with enhanced vision or enhanced smell and hearing abilities who are monitoring the movements of these people. It would be strange not to say a word along the way. The team leader took the initiative Open the mouth, "Have you heard of the big event some time ago?"

Mu Qiantong had to pretend not to have heard of it, besides, she really wanted to know the information from the local residents, so she shook her head.

The team leader said: "Those guys are really fierce. They drove a heavy-fire armored vehicle into the research institute under the nose of the army, and even blew up the whole place. Even the army didn't stop them."

A power user next to him interjected: "Where did those guys get the explosives?"

This topic is no longer a taboo in the imperial capital. On the contrary, there are countless people chatting, and Mu Qiantong pieced together the whole story through their chats.

In fact, there were only three people who broke into the research institute that day, and those three seemed not to be afraid of ordinary bullets, so they rushed all the way into the research institute in a heavy-fire armored vehicle.

The research institute was just rebuilt from a big hospital in the imperial capital, so the actual defense effect is limited, and this group of people really broke in!They didn't kill the outer soldiers, they basically wounded them. They were very cruel to some people who strictly guarded the inner area of ​​the research institute.

Unexpectedly, they completely blew up the two buildings later, colluded with the armed supernatural beings outside, successfully broke through the encirclement and escaped, and there were two more people among them when they left.

It's not hard to deduce that they are here to save Wen Yu.
