Thrive in Catastrophe

Xiao Yan looked up and looked around, he really wanted to know who was looking at him.

"What purpose can it have? If you don't give you pressure, you will never go all out for the test! I made an application to the higher-ups. If your test reaches the A level this time, come and do my research assistant!"

"Really?" Xiao Yan expressed deep doubts.

"Otherwise? At least I am watching you by my side! If you are allowed to go out to do field trips, I will be terrified every day!"

Casey looked extremely serious.

Xiao Yan sighed, yes, he is very irresponsible to this friend himself.Obviously knowing what the other party has been worried about, but always doing things that make the other party worry.

"Don't be mad at me...I only have you as a friend...I just don't want you to go to dangerous places anymore..."

Casey lowered his head, no matter how he was called a genius by outsiders, or he showed a strong and arrogant appearance, he was still just a teenager.In this cold research center, he is treated as an adult, but how many people remember that he is just a child.

Xiao Yan gently hugged him and patted his back.

"Okay, you're my best friend. When I'm ridiculed as a loser, only you will stand up in front of me."

The big deal is that if you pass the Type A test this time, you will really become Casey's research assistant, and don't you really want to be able to engage in research work and get in touch with information about the X virus? Casey must have the most sophisticated research equipment and most confidential data.

At this moment, Casey's chin was resting on Xiao Yan's shoulder, her eyes were cunning, and the corners of her lips were deep and unpredictable.

After handing in the test data, Lily was also sent to the medical nursing room, and Xiao Yan stretched himself.

"I'm hungry, let's get something to eat!"

"Why don't you guys care about your test results at all?"

"What is there to care about? If I'm sent to be your assistant, then I'm an A-class elite. If I'm sent to do field research again, then I'm still a B-class useless."

"You are really calm! What about Lily! You really don't like her? Remember every time you saw her passing by in the academy, you kept staring at her chest!"

"This is a man's nature! Besides, chasing beautiful things is a human instinct!"

Xiao Yan and Casey left the laboratory.

In the observation room, a man in military uniform stood in front of the glass.

"Report, the test results are out."

"What's his rating?"

"A level."

"What about the speed at which the brain intervenes in the terminal?"

"14 million trillion speeds, consistent with the data transmitted by Base [-]."

The man rested his chin in thought.

"Shen Bing's intervention speed is only [-] million trillion."

"Your Excellency...do you need to raise Xiao Yan's student level?"

"Of course not. Since we already know that the purpose of the Tide Group's attack on the research aircraft is to obtain the researchers' brains, if they know Xiao Yan's research level and the speed of terminal intervention, they will definitely take him as the target. Notify the Central Research Institute, Keep Xiao Yan's research level unchanged, raise his security level to A level, and implement full-time protection for him."

"And what about Lieutenant Colonel Casey's request?"

"Approved. Allowing Xiao Yan to stay in the research institute with the strictest security level is also his protection."

"Yes! I heard...you reviewed Xiao Yan's research report on that mutant Level1?"

"Yes, a very bold and interesting conjecture."

"The research directors of the Central Academy of Sciences all feel that his report is too outrageous, it is completely conjecture, without any theory and data support, and there is no need to verify it at all."

"All research starts with conjectures. For example, Galileo's heliocentric theory hundreds of years ago, Newton's gravitational force, and even Constantine's theory of virus mutation, the father of virology, all start with conjectures. Every conjecture is unconscionable and unacceptable. But in the end, it was verified as a scientific classic. Maybe, Xiao Yan will become the next classic? The most exciting thing about this world is that at a certain moment, a character you can't look down on suddenly turns everything you understand and accept upside down."

Xiao Yan's dinner was very sumptuous. After all, because of the supply problem at Base 14, all the food was rationed. It has been a long time since Xiao Yan had such an open-minded meal.Thinking of Shen Bing who was still there, Xiao Yan touched his nose, thinking that the colonel might not be happier than the students!

"What are you thinking about again!" Casey poked Xiao Yan's cheek with her fingers.

"Some proud things." Xiao Yan blinked.

"What makes you proud?" Casey propped up her upper body and kept leaning towards Xiao Yan until those beautiful emerald eyes were close in front of Xiao Yan.

It was obviously a smiling expression, as always childish and self-willed, but under the wrapping of the military uniform, there was a faint aggression.

"No...what..." Xiao Yan subconsciously leaned back, his back pressed against the chair.

"Liar, are you thinking about Lily again?" Casey raised her brows, her eyes became cold.

"Hey! If you didn't mention her, I wouldn't have thought of it at all!"

"If you haven't thought about Lily, what about Heine Burton?" Casey looked at Xiao Yan with his chin propped up, Xiao Yan was slightly shocked by the sense of oppression that was completely different from the joke.

"...What happened to Colonel Burton?" Xiao Yan didn't expect why Casey would suddenly mention Heine.

"His troops are about to send out a mission soon. Lieutenant General Aiweier, the leader of the Academy of Sciences, has sent a major to provide technical support for them. Do you know what his team members said?" Casey paused, looking into Xiao Yan In his eyes, "They said that apart from you, a rookie, they don't need other technical soldiers who are slowing down."

Xiao Yan touched the back of his head and laughed: "I didn't expect my evaluation to be so high!"

"You're still laughing! I thought Heine Burton would be in charge of his people, but he didn't say a word. Do you know what that means? It means he thinks the same as his subordinates! Fortunately, Major General Gordon and Lieutenant General Ewell don't support you leaving Shire, otherwise you will go out with those guys again! How many lives do you think you have enough to spend?"

Xiao Yan opened his mouth. He wanted to say that as long as he was with Heine Burton, he had a hunch that no matter what happened, he would come back safely.On the contrary, in this underground city without Heine, his thoughts are faintly uneasy.

"Okay, no matter what, I hope you can keep a distance from Heine Burton's troops. I don't want my research to reach the most important part while my assistant is caught out to deal with zombies!"

"You think too much." Xiao Yan lowered his head and continued eating.

I don't know why, but this time when I return to Shire, I always feel that Casey is different from before.

"Very well, if I know that you are still thinking about the woman who nearly killed you or want to go outside, I will twist your head off and make a collection, and put it on my desk. Whenever I want to see it I can see you. How?"

Casey squinted her eyes and smiled, looking very cute.

Xiao Yan felt shuddering and almost fell off the back of the chair.

After dinner, Xiao Yan and Casey returned to their respective apartments.

The apartment of B-level students is a row dormitory, and the space is pitifully small, just enough to fit a bed and a set of terminal equipment.Xiao Yan doesn't care about these things. After all, the dormitory is just a place to sleep, and as long as he connects to the terminal, Xiao Yan can spend all his free time in online games. This is probably the so-called Internet addiction.

When he came downstairs to the apartment building, there were several people standing in the shadows in front of the gate. They were wearing military uniforms, but their collars were open. It was obvious that they were not technical soldiers of the research institute, but more like members of the military and political department.This is the department that Xiao Yan hates the most. It does nothing but has a bureaucratic style.

The guy who was an eyesore naturally pretended not to see it, Xiao Yan came to the door of the apartment and was about to enter with his fingerprints, when the Military and Political Department leaned over and surrounded him, their eyes staring intently, showing no kindness.

Xiao Yan became vigilant.

"You are Xiao Yan?"

The leading officer pushed Xiao Yan, and said in a vicious voice, "Why don't you answer me?"

In terms of force, Xiao Yan knew that he was a stupid rookie, and he was thinking about how to lure them away.

"That's him! This guy is Xiao Yan! I remembered, I saw him when I got off the aircraft today!"

Xiao Yan felt cold, and was about to run away when he was grabbed by the collar and fell back against the wall.

Before he had time to speak, a fist came down, and he was dizzy immediately, and the taste of blood came out of his mouth.

damn it!What's the matter!Outside, he was chased and bitten by zombies, and when he returned to Shire, he was chased and beaten again!

"How dare you not answer when I ask you! Beat this guy to death!"

A few fists came down, Xiao Yan had nowhere to dodge, he could only crouch down with his head in his arms.

Heavy fists landed on his shoulders and arms. Apart from the pain, Xiao Yan was extremely annoyed.

He was beaten so badly.

Since entering the Academy of Sciences, he has been ridiculed countless times by Class A students, but this is the first time he has been beaten so inexplicably.

No matter how lazy he is, he never pays much attention to indifferent face, but Xiao Yan still has blood in his bones.

"Blow my head off if you have the ability! Otherwise, I will definitely sue you at the Military Disciplinary Office!"

As soon as Xiao Yan finished speaking, the leader grabbed his hair and slammed it against the wall. Seeing his face being squeezed to the point of distortion, he showed a smug smile and raised his voice and said, "Boy? Do you still want to Go to the Military Disciplinary Office to sue us? It seems that you really don’t know why you were beaten! We are here to teach you for Major Denzel of the Military Disciplinary Office!”

Hearing this, Xiao Yan finally understood what was going on.

Major Denzel has been pursuing Lily, and even promised that as long as she agrees to his marriage proposal, even if Lily cannot be promoted to a type A researcher, she can work in logistics without leaving Shire, but Lily rejected him.

What Xiao Yan looks down on the most is such a man. Being rejected by a woman hurts his self-esteem, so he seeks a sense of accomplishment from irrelevant people.

"Then I would trouble you to tell Major Denzel... When Lily was being chased by the zombies and escaped... where is the respected Major Denzel?"

Xiao Yan pulled up the corners of his lips and smiled mockingly.Even though he was in a terrible state of distress and his mouth was hurting when he said a word, he could never hold back what he hated.

"You kid is courting death!"

He punched Xiao Yan in the abdomen again, subconsciously Xiao Yan stretched out his hand to hold the opponent's fist, and the figure of Heine Burton emerged in his mind.He raised his knees and slammed into each other.The officer didn't expect Xiao Yan to resist, he was completely unprepared, and was so pushed that he vomited out the contents of his stomach.

The other two were dumbfounded, and then angrily waved their fists at Xiao Yan.

At this time, Xiao Yan had calmed down, dodging left and right, looking for an opportunity to escape.

After all, the people from the Military and Political Department had received systematic fighting training, and soon one of them caught Xiao Yan, and the other was about to punch him.

"Stamp on his knees and lean back, and he loses his center of gravity."

The cold voice spread along the air, pouring into the depths of Xiao Yan's mind from Xiao Yan's ear.

Xiao Yan suddenly jumped up, stepped on the knees of the guy who was strangling him, and slammed backwards, the opponent lost his center of gravity, and the moment he fell backwards, Xiao Yan kicked the guy who was about to punch him .

Xiao Yan, who was freed, quickly got up, and before the two of them regained their senses, he left their attacking range.

When I came back to my senses, I saw a man with a stern and elegant face standing under the streetlight.

Xiao Yan stared blankly at the other party, never expecting him to appear here.

"ocean……"

Heine Burton strolled towards him, his palm suddenly passed by Xiao Yan's ear, the gust of wind dragged his hair, and a muffled groan came from behind him.

Xiao Yan thought that it was his own head that Hein was going to break off, and his heart was squeezed tightly. When he turned his head stiffly, he realized that Hein's hand was pinching the neck of a guy who was trying to sneak attack Xiao Yan. It was almost effortless. The guy was lifted up, his whole face flushed instantly, his toes lifted off the ground little by little, his eyes were full of fear of death.

Seeing this, the other two officers were stunned.

"You...you...who are you!"

They are timid and dare not go forward.

Heine frowned slightly, and threw off the officer in his hand, who fell to the ground, clutching his neck and coughing violently.

"I advise you not to meddle in your own business! Otherwise, we will tell Major Denzel that he will not let you go!"

Heine took another two steps forward, patted his epaulettes with disdain, and his straight combat uniform showed his identity.

"Special... special task forces..."

"It's a colonel..."
