The Scavengers

10 月 2 日 -15 日

Xiao Mo... didn't do anything.

Right in front of him, the two soldiers guarding the stairs had already seen them and raised their hands to salute them from a distance.

Xiao Mo quickly nodded in return.Along the way, he said why it was a bit awkward, but just now he was so focused on burying his emotions that he didn't notice the reaction of other people on the side of the road seeing him, and Xue Lihong didn't remind him.

Why do they look at him like that?

Fearing that others would see what he did last night, Xiao Mo straightened his back even more.

The soldiers looked at him with sparkling eyes, their eyes seemed to contain a thousand words, and they would stare at him again after he passed by.

Xiao Mo felt the burning heat behind him, so he couldn't help but quietly quicken his pace.

"The news that you rescued Major General Zhang Hua yesterday has spread. It is meaningless to hide your ability at this time. Instead, let those soldiers know that you have such ability. They will put your security level higher than the top leader of this base. Zhang Hua is even taller. If anyone dares to attack you at this time, there is no need to call from above, those soldiers will tear them alive."

"I didn't do anything, I just..." Xiao Mo touched his nose, not proud, but rather embarrassed.

"But they only know that you have medical ability, and you should not expose the rest."

"Oh, I know, I will be careful." At this moment, Xiao Mo realized that the young man was still holding his shoulders, and there was a ghost in his heart, so he took two quick steps and threw Xue Lihong away.

Xue Lihong didn't care, and followed slowly.He thought what Xiao Mo said before he got angry with him.

For an old monster who can't grow up in a thousand years, it's just a joke to say who to trust.

He liked Xiao Mo so much that he even wanted to mate with him. Apart from Xiao Mo being able to help him grow up, another important point was that he felt that this person was easier to control—he liked the feeling of having everything in his hands , whether it is a thing or a person.

Maybe this has something to do with him being in a weak position before?

In the past, he could only be forced to maintain a minor body, and even if he had an idea, it was difficult to use it most of the time.How many adults would listen to a child who looks like four or five years old, even if he is very smart and mature?

The more unattainable the goal, the more it will become an obsession over time.

Xue Lihong is used to looking for kind-hearted people to protect her for a period of time in troubled times, but as an outsider, when food and medicine are lacking and human nature collapses, he is always the one who is abandoned first compared to her own children.

He didn't hate those who abandoned him or even exchanged him for food and other things, nor was he grateful to them—while being blessed by these people, he also paid blessing fees, such as valuable jewelry, or a few life-savings.

He doesn't care about those people, just like they don't care much about him.It's not that he hasn't met people who are kind to him from the beginning to the end, and there are very few people who are even willing to sacrifice themselves to protect him.

For those people, he has big rewards.But because of his body that never grows up, he can't be with those people all the time.He tried, but...

After two tries, he never trusted anyone to give his all.

He also knows that telling the truth will hurt people, but although he has lived for so many years, although he has only seen love and dating, but from experience, he thinks that telling the truth is better than cheating. Relationships that begin with deception, those that rarely end well.

He didn't know how long he and Xiao Mo could stay together, but he hoped that the two sides could be as honest as possible. Of course, it didn't mean that each other couldn't have a little secret. Who didn't have something that they couldn't tell?

All in all, Xue Lihong's point of view on communication is: You are mine now, I want to be responsible to you, I want to treat you well, I want to take care of you, I will try not to lie to you, but you also have to be obedient, the above.

You see, he requires very little from his partner, as long as he is obedient.

So like Xiao Mo losing his temper with him now, throwing off his hand, etc., he thinks he can accept it, anyway, he will find it in other places.I heard that successful men always respect their partners in front of outsiders, and if they have opinions, they will go back and have sex behind closed doors.

Xiao Mo didn't know that he had been classified as property by his own employees, and he didn't know that he and Xue Lihong had started dating at all. His relationship with Xue Lihong hadn't developed to that point yet. Last night was a special event. Condition.

Now he hopes that the young man can quickly forget what happened last night, otherwise he really doesn't know how to continue to get along with the young man.

Chang E still stays in the laboratory, one is that she is not sure whether the virus on her body has completely disappeared, and another important reason is that she promised Xiao Mo that no matter what changes she has in the future, she will not get involved in the matter. on him.

Cheng Zai also knew this through Chang'e, so he didn't tell anyone about Chang'e's changes, and he was the only one who brought food and water to Chang'e.

Chang'e smiled when she saw Xiao Mo coming in.

Xiao Mo walked into the glass room, he didn't come to enjoy Chang'e's gratitude, but to check whether her situation has repeated.

The mutated virus was quite aggressive, and he couldn't guarantee that the other party would not make a comeback.

"Your condition is very good, the angel virus and mutant virus in your body have disappeared." Xiao Mo put down Chang'e's hand and gave her an affirmative answer.

Chang'e let out a long breath, and finally let go of her suspended heart, "Thank you!"

Xiao Mo shook his head, "I'm sorry, I have to wrong you, I'm afraid you will stay here until the tunnel is dug."

"It's nothing, there is another thing I need to explain to you first." Chang'e looked at Xue Lihong, "Don't get me wrong, it's not something that is not good for you."

Xiao Mo, "Please tell me."

Chang E looked at Xiao Mo, "I thought about it all night, I don't want to be a research object of a certain person or organization, even if it is the Zhongshan City base you guaranteed."

"So what are you going to do?"

"Xiao Mo, I need to thank you again, because of your treatment, not only can I become invisible, but my wings can finally be retracted. After a while, I will let Cheng Zai tell Ma Xiang and the others that I have been killed If the mutated virus is killed, Cheng Zai will start the self-destruct program to avoid destroying the laboratory in the name of virus leakage."

"What do you do after that? Everyone in the base is registered."

Chang E smiled, "My son still has a little bit of energy in this base. It is not a problem for him to find a hidden Tibetan place to hide me for a few months. As long as he leaves here in the future, my son will choose to retire and we will go to Living in other cities, I think this is not only best for me, but also good for you, at least in a short period of time you don't have to worry about your abilities being exposed."

After much deliberation, Xiao Mo also felt that this would be the best for Chang'e. Although he hoped that Chang'e's mother and son could go to the Zhongshan Base, he did not hope that Chang'e would help Qian Yunkai and the others to conduct angel virus research, but hoped that they would get better results. A more comfortable life.

"This is very good." Xue Lihong made a final decision, "I will help Cheng Zai handle this matter."

Chang E was determined, "Thank you very much."

For several days after that, Xiao Mo falsely claimed that Chang'e's condition had deteriorated, and entered the laboratory every day to help her treat it.

Ma Xiang and Major General Zhang Hua wanted to see the situation, but Xiao Mo refused on the grounds that they might be infected.

In order to prevent Ma Xiang and the others from being suspicious, Cheng Zai also stopped entering the laboratory.

Ma Xiang and the others checked the surveillance video, but only saw the tampered surveillance content - it was just a piece of cake for Cheng Zai to process and edit the past video to replace the current real time.

Ma Xiang and the others couldn't bear to watch Chang'e's miserable scenes day by day in the video, especially when his son was watching you with tears in his eyes.

Four days later, Xiao Mo declared that Chang'e's condition was incurable, and suggested that in order to avoid infection, it would be best to completely destroy Chang'e's body.

Major General Zhang Hua, Ma Xiang and other high-level officials decided to activate the self-destruction procedure of the laboratory after urgent consultation. This is the news told by the surviving researchers. These researchers do not want the live viruses and monsters in the laboratory to escape. .

Cheng Zai was in a lot of pain, but he still insisted that he start the program.

That night, in front of Zhang Hua and Ma Xiang, he turned on the monitor, opened the laboratory's self-destruct program, and pressed the Enter key.

Xiao Mo and Xue Lihong were also there.

On the screen, Chang'e, whose body is almost rotten, is lying on the cot. At this time, she can no longer see the human form.

Zhang Hua and Ma Xiang couldn't bear to look directly at Chang E on the screen, and Ma Xiang patted Cheng Zai several times, worried that he couldn't stand it.

The fire erupted from the center of the glass room, and Chang'e's body was quickly burned to ashes together with other objects in the glass room.But this is not the end, and other substances are sprayed out of the glass room to decompose the ashes again.

But at this moment, a crack appeared in the extremely strong bulletproof glass room!

"It's broken! How could the glass crack?" Major General Zhang Hua and others changed their colors.

No one expected such an accident to happen, and no one knew what substance was ejected from the second self-destruct of the glass room. All the equipment in the laboratory began to corrode.

"The information there!" Ma Xiang shouted.

Cheng Zai wiped his tears, "Head, I have copied them all."

Ma Xiang panted heavily, and slapped Cheng Zai on the shoulder, "Good job!"

Major General Zhang Hua also looked at Cheng Zai with admiration. This child is really not easy. He saw his mother become like that with his own eyes, and he personally destroyed his mother's body, and he did not forget his own work.

Major General Zhang Hua couldn't be more satisfied with such a subordinate.

But such an excellent soldier told his superior Lieutenant Colonel Ma Xiang two days later that he had deleted all the videos about his mother's last days. Mother's last bit of dignity.

Ma Xiang is angry, but for this excellent subordinate who has made great contributions and saved a lot of precious research materials in time, he can also understand the other party's feelings that he does not want his mother's last miserable appearance to be watched and studied wantonly.

In the end, Ma Xiang gave Cheng Zai a small demerit, and the matter passed.

The underground base seems to have regained its calm on the surface, and everything is developing in a good direction.

During this period, some other incidents happened, such as Zhang Di, the captain of the Lantern mercenary team, who was almost killed by a prostitute when he went to a prostitute, and one of the five youths who were rescued by the lantern, a young man named Yang Kangping, died of a heart attack. , his girlfriend Feng Lan seemed to be so stimulated that she lost her mind, and even attacked another young man, Li Yong, and almost stabbed him to death with a dagger.

Feng Lan was imprisoned and asked her nothing.Two days later, Feng Lan was raped and killed in the confinement room.

Because of this incident, Major General Zhang Hua was furious and forcibly transferred all the powers of arrest, detention, interrogation and guarding to the military.At that time, neither the confinement room nor the guards who detained Feng Lan belonged to the military, but the other side of the base, the so-called civilian officials.

But in fact, these civil servants are not real civil servants, but a management organization spontaneously formed by some early survivors who consider themselves to be of relatively high status and have made great contributions.

At that time, Ma Xiang needed manpower to help manage the survivors, so he allowed these people to hold a little power in the base.

Major General Zhang Hua wanted to take back the power of these people when he woke up, but after considering that they would not stay in this base for a long time, he didn't take care of these people specially.

However, some of these people even showed a face after the accident that "only a woman died". Major General Zhang Hua, who was so upright by nature, punched them on the spot.

Regarding these things, Xiao Mo heard some of them when he was treating soldiers and survivors.

Feng Lan, the girl with the hammer was sent to the base under his protection all the way, but he didn't expect this girl to die like this, and she died so miserably.

"Has the murderer been caught?" Xiao Mo asked Xue Lihong while wiping his face.

"Which murderer? Boss, accompany me to the third floor of the back building after dinner."

"Okay. It's the murderer who killed Feng Lan."

"Not yet. It is said that the monitor in the corridor outside the confinement room happened to be broken that day." Xue Lihong showed a smile that was not a smile.

"Do you know something?" Xiao Mo looked at him suspiciously.

"What do I know? I only know that this matter has nothing to do with us, Zhang Hua and the others will solve it. Boss, don't worry about it."

Xiao Mo coughed, "Do you still remember Zhang Di from the Lantern Mercenary Team? He was seriously injured. In the morning, his people got the news that I would be treated, and came to ask me to save him. I... accepted."

Xue Lihong frowned.It's nothing to save Zhang Di, but to save Zhang Di is likely to confront the enemy who wants to kill him, and that enemy is not very broad-minded.

That Ni Wei, he was not very comfortable when he saw this person for the first time, and the actions of the other party made him not want to get involved with this person, not because this person was vicious or afraid of the energy behind the other party, but because he never There was a hint of danger in the young man.
