Forced to follow the love line by the villain boss

The two of them stood on the top of the [-]-meter-high tower, staring at the flames burning on the edge of the city in a daze.I don't know if it was because of the sudden increase in wind, or the bad premonition in his heart, Meng Xing suddenly trembled.

At the same time, he also came back to his senses, took out his mobile phone, and wanted to see what news was on the Internet.He stood on the top of the tower, although he could see the fire, but it was too far away, and he had no idea what was going on at the edge.

But when he opened the social software, he found that everything was calm, as if nothing had happened.But this is not good news. On the contrary, it shows that the government is in a mess and can't control the situation.

Meng Xing didn't see any useful news on his phone, but his action reminded Wen Rulan.Wen Rulan had many more channels for getting news than Meng Xing. He wanted to take out his phone immediately, but when he reached for his pocket, it was empty.

Meng Xing saw the clue from his expression, and guessed: "Didn't you bring your mobile phone?"

"Hmm..." Wen Rulan was a little annoyed: "It probably landed in the control room."

Meng Xing pondered for a moment, then suggested: "Let's go down first."

Standing on the top, you can't see anything except the fire, and you have to go down to get Wen Rulan's phone to know the outside situation.

Wen Rulan nodded in agreement, and the two began to climb down one after the other.

Going down a mountain is harder than going up, and the same goes for climbing a ladder.There are icy edges on the exposed metal ladder, which is easy to slip.Meng Xing got off first, although he was anxious to find out what happened, but he knew the danger of climbing the ladder, so he controlled the speed very slowly.

Wen Rulan did the same, the two climbed down step by step, and when they were about ten meters away from the terrace, Wen Rulan stopped for a while.

Meng Xing didn't know why, so he yelled up, "What's wrong?"

Wen Rulan didn't answer, just looked at the direction behind him, and stretched out his finger: "Look over there."

Meng Xing looked over and saw dense black spots pouring in from outside the city.These are people, people from outside the city.

The border defense line has been breached, and a large number of people poured in. These people must not be people with tickets. Their number is almost twice the number of people Meng Xing saw on the street during the day. , The empty streets at night are crowded.

This is not the end, the flow of people is still increasing, the people in front are getting deeper and deeper into the city, they have no clear direction, most of the people participating in the riots are not really crazy, but just want to fight for a chance to survive.

After finally entering the city, he naturally hurried to find a place to hide, so as not to drive him out when the government regained control of the situation.

However, there were also some people who showed a clear purpose and came straight to the direction of the central tower.

They are still a certain distance away from the central tower, and they may change their course halfway to go to other places, but whether it is Meng Xing or Wen Rulan, they all have an intuition that this group of people is heading for the central tower.

Meng Xing thought of the words "We must die together" that he saw in those private groups before, and his inner anxiety intensified a little.

The two continued to go down, they still controlled the speed, they couldn't go fast, otherwise it would be easy to make mistakes, and it would be bad if they fell.

After much difficulty, Meng Xing jumped down the last step and successfully reached the terrace. Before he could catch his breath, Wen Rulan, who was hanging two meters above, slipped suddenly due to anxiety and lost control of his balance.

He tried hard to regain control of his balance, but he couldn't control it after all, and fell straight down.

Meng Xing's heart jumped from his chest to his throat, and he quickly reached out to catch it. Fortunately, the height was not very high, so Wen Rulan fell into his arms and was supported by him.

However, when he landed, Wen Rulan's left foot twisted, and he raised his eyebrows in pain.

Meng Xing hurriedly asked, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay." Wen Rulan shook her head, just twisted it a bit, and the pain passed for a while.He tried to walk again, except that it was a little more awkward than before, nothing serious.

"Let's go down quickly." He said while pressing the elevator button.

Meng Xing followed closely, and they took the elevator back to the interior of the central tower. The ubiquitous heating enveloped them all at once, forming a sharp contrast with the cold outside.

But neither of them was in a hurry to take off their heavy coats. They might not know what would happen, whether they could stay in the tower or not, they were still wearing insurance.

They arrived at the central control room where they stayed before, but it was still empty. Wen Rulan found his mobile phone on the console, he turned on the screen, and before he had time to read the news, he received a call.

He pressed the answer button, and the familiar voice of colleagues in the research institute came from the receiver.

"Professor Wen, something has happened. The security team is looking for you. You should come downstairs quickly!"

"I'll go right away." Wen Rulan replied.

It was too late to stay, and as soon as they arrived at the control room, they set off again before taking a breath.

Wen Rulan had just twisted his foot. Although he could walk, Wen Rulan couldn't walk fast. Meng Xing walked down while supporting him.

They went directly to the bottom of the tower, the largest hall on the first floor.There were many people in the hall, including Wen Rulan's colleagues and security personnel in military uniforms.

It's 45:11, and it's not yet 30:[-]. It was supposed to be a break, but something happened suddenly. The security personnel quickly called back all the researchers who went out to eat supper. These people are studying the artificial sun that is related to the survival of human beings. , there must be no mistakes.

They have been found one after another, but the most important person in the research team, Wen Rulan has been unable to get in touch, and no one answered after making several calls. The security team is anxiously preparing to send someone up to look for it. Answered the phone.

Right now, just as Wen Rulan showed up, an officer in military uniform and the rank of captain walked over. He was not the original garrison here, but just arrived after being assigned by his superiors, so he was not familiar with Wen Rulan.He first confirmed his identity: "Professor Wen?"

"It's me." Wen Rulan nodded, and then asked, "What happened?"

"Someone launched a coup, the city defense forces fought each other, and people from outside took advantage of the situation to enter, and now the whole city is in chaos." The captain briefly described the general situation, and then asked: "Professor Wen, the commander sent me to inquire about artificial intelligence. The progress of the sun, can it start on time at midnight tonight?"

"Yes." Wen Rulan replied very firmly, he had already arranged everything.

The captain breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Although the central tower has security, the target is too big and vulnerable to attack. Professor Wen, we will arrange for you to move together later."

His proposal was not unreasonable. Meng Xing and Wen Rulan had already seen someone coming in this direction from the top of the tower. It would undoubtedly be dangerous to stay in the central tower, but Wen Rulan rejected the proposal.

"No!" He frowned: "I have to watch in the control room when starting up, and make corrections based on real-time data, otherwise the machine may blow up due to loss of control."

Hearing that the bombing was so severe, the captain's expression changed. He hesitated for a while, then turned around and made a phone call, asked his superiors for instructions, and then came back with a new proposal: "Professor Wen, You continue to stay in the central tower, and we will do our best to ensure your safety."

He only said his best, not sure, because under the current situation, whether the current government can win this coup is uncertain, and naturally there is no spare power to support the central tower.Their left-behind team of less than 100 people is the last force to defend the central tower, but the enemy does not know the number, and no one dares to guarantee it.

Wen Rulan understood what he meant and knew the danger of staying, but he had to stay.

Not because of any responsibility, or for the righteousness of human survival, just because the "Golden Crow" has been set up to start the program, and it must be started tonight. If he doesn't stay, the "Golden Crow" will blow up out of control. When the time comes, The ice and snow of the doomsday will swallow all life, he will die at sunset on August 8, and Meng Xing will do the same.

He accepted the proposal, and the captain didn't say anything more, he just led the team to deploy a defensive position outside, and at the same time, let Wen Rulan and other researchers without combat capabilities go to the top of the tower to stay.

If someone really attacks the central tower, the hall on the first floor will face the attack directly, and the upstairs is obviously safer.

No one objected, everyone went to their respective positions, the soldiers guarded on the first floor, and the researcher went to the central control room on the top of the tower, where the protection level is the highest and the safest.

Wen Rulan didn't go, he wanted to go, but Meng Xing led him to stop in the lounge on the lower floor of the control room.

Wen Rulan was a little confused, and Meng Xing didn't explain, he only made sure that everyone else had gone up and there was no one here except them, so he let Wen Rulan sit on the sofa, and he sat on the sofa next to him.

Holding Wen Rulan's left calf, he carefully took off Wen Rulan's shoes and socks, and rolled up the trousers, and saw a swollen red color that was different from the surrounding white skin.

"Does it hurt?" He lightly touched Wen Rulan's ankle.

Wen Rulan didn't say a word, but his five toes tightened involuntarily. This performance already explained everything.

"I'll find some ice." Meng Xing stood up from the sofa as he spoke.

He went directly to the terrace at the top of the tower. It was very easy to find ice in this weather. Meng Xing brought a bag and filled it with ice edges easily.

After putting it on, he immediately returned to the lounge, and returned to Wen Rulan's side.He found a smaller plastic bag, filled it with some ice, and added some water to neutralize the coldness of the ice cubes, so that the temperature of the ice bag would not be too low and frostbite the skin, and then put it in Wen Rulan's on the ankle.

Even though Meng Xing added water, the chill from the ice pack still made Wen Rulan shiver again, and he subconsciously retracted his legs, but Meng Xing grabbed his ankle just in time.

Meng Xing is holding the uninjured part of the upper ankle, which won't make him feel pain, but just makes him unable to back away.

Ice was added to the wound, and the instant pain and cold made Wen Rulan purse his lips tightly, and he didn't speak for a long time, but after he slowly recovered, he felt that his ankle was much better than before.

The pain has subsided, and while it still hurts a bit, it's not as bad as before.At the same time, he also belatedly realized the ambiguity of this posture.

His ankle was held in Meng Xing's palm. If it was normal, Wen Rulan would definitely have some charming thoughts and tease Meng Xing.But right now he is not in the mood, the central tower may be attacked at any time, and his own defense force is only a force of more than 100 people.

The troops are all concentrated in the border defense. There are very few people left behind in the central tower, and the enemy does not need to be strong. Even refugees without guns can break through their defenses as long as there are enough people.

Moreover, what disturbed Wen Rulan the most was that in another hour, it would be August 8th, the date of his doomed death.

Meng Xing also thought of this. Although he was helping Wen Rulan apply an ice pack, he was actually a little absent-minded.He kept looking at his phone, estimating the time it would take to reach the central tower from the edge of Noah City.

It took them nearly an hour to reach the central tower from the edge during the day, but in fact it didn’t take that long, they were delayed on the road for a while, in fact, more than half an hour was enough, and from the time they saw the fire on the top of the tower Counting, there are about ten minutes left.

"Wait a minute..." In the quiet lounge, two voices sounded at the same time.

Both Meng Xing and Wen Rulan were stunned for a moment, and looked at each other in blank dismay.

"What do you want to say?" Wen Rulan broke the silence first.

"Wait a while, the ice pack will be applied, and then you go back to the control room." Meng Xing replied.

His words were exactly the same as what Wen Rulan wanted to say, except that the subject was different. What Wen Rulan wanted to say was "Let's go back to the control room together", but Meng Xing only said "you".

"Where are you going?" Wen Rulan frowned.

"I'll go down and help..."

"no!"

Before Meng Xing could finish his sentence, Wen Rulan interrupted him.He was not surprised, but he looked a little helpless: "The central tower cannot be captured, I must go."

Wen Rulan pursed her lips tightly, wanting to refute, but there was no reason to refute.

The central tower must not be captured or destroyed. Not only does it control the top floor of the "Golden Crow", the same cannot be done under the tower. The lower part is the electrical device. Once it is destroyed, the "Golden Crow" cannot be activated either.

And his own team is short of manpower. Although Meng Xing's skills are not top-notch, they are still at the upper-middle level. It is the best choice to go down and help.

Although there will be dangers, waiting on the tower for the power system to be destroyed and the end to come is also death.

"Then I..." Wen Rulan wanted to say that she would follow Meng Xing again, but she swallowed it before she could say it.

Not only because of his sprained foot, but also because he had to stay on top, watching the progress of the "Golden Crow" start.

This is a situation where he has no choice, he can only choose to agree, but before he actually makes the decision to agree, there is a long silence.

The ice pack was already applied, but he was holding on to Meng Xing's sleeve tightly, refusing to let go.Later, Meng Xing's clean and tidy cuffs were pulled into a crumpled ball by him, but he still didn't speak.

But Meng Xing couldn't wait any longer, he heard a loud noise from under the tower, the enemy was coming.

Meng Xing was about to pull Wen Rulan's hand away, but Wen Rulan shrank back first. He lowered his head and clenched his five fingers tightly, using great strength to control himself.

"Be careful." He said in a low voice.

"En." Meng Xing nodded vigorously, then ran down the tower without stopping.
