under the tower

The next day, Ji Xi slept until the afternoon, only to wake up with a splitting headache.

Yan Yi probably had something to do, so he had already left the house.

His whole body felt as if he had been run over by a heavy object. There was no pain in any part of his body. The overused part felt more obvious. The feeling of being stretched by a huge object seemed to be still deep in his body. A steady stream of scorching heat was emitted.

When Ji Xi saw the afternoon sun shining in from the window, he had a subtle illusion similar to the rest of his life after a catastrophe.

His first thought was - Yan Yi was merciful and didn't kill him directly on the bed.

The strong and crazy sexuality last night simply subverted all his previous cognition of Yanyi. For a moment, he thought that the other party was a different person, and all the tenderness and pity he had used were all his own illusions.

Ji Xi supported his sore waist, slowly sat up from the bed with a face of pain, and complained softly in his heart, this guy is too much.

Too much is really too much, and cool is really cool.

Ji Xi only remembered that she cried so much that her voice became hoarse yesterday, and she was completely immersed in the extreme sensory stimulation.

He didn't even remember how painful it was when he first entered, or it wasn't painful at all, Yan Yi kept his promise very responsibly - indeed he didn't hurt him, but tortured him in a more brutal way.

Ji Xi struggled to get up, Yan Yi should have cleaned it up for him afterwards, there was no sticky feeling behind it, there was a porcelain bowl covered with a plastic plate on the small kitchen table, next to a note with familiar handwriting.

"Warm it up before eating."

Ji Xi opened the dishes, and found a bowl of rice with golden fried eggs, some side dishes, a few green vegetables and a piece of grilled pork ribs with sauce.

As soon as Ji Xi smells it, he knows that this bowl of rice was made by Yan Yi himself, instead of buying it from the unmanned delivery machine at the base.

From getting along with each other in the past few days, Ji Xi found that men have a great prejudice against polymer synthetic cuisine. As long as he has time, he will cook by himself, and even drive thousands of miles back to the sick wood area to buy good food and bring it over. Too busy, he will also pack a few boxes of food, I don't know where he bought it from, anyway, Ji Xi has never eaten a similar taste in the canteen in Wanshen District.

Ji Xi put the bowl into the self-heating induction cooker in the kitchen, and after a while, the hot food gave off an attractive fragrance.

Yesterday Ji Xi was tossed and tossed all night, and he was already starving. He felt that his appetite had never been so strong in so many days. He ate voraciously, because he was too anxious to eat. A well-fried egg was bitten, and the runny egg yolk seeped into the white rice, which looked particularly nice against the crisp vegetable leaves and brown-red pork ribs in sauce.

Ji Xi quickly ate the whole bowl of rice, and the food that hadn't been chewed completely slid down the esophagus into the stomach, forming a great sense of fullness.

He put down his chopsticks contentedly, and the fear caused by the emptiness in his heart finally dissipated completely, because of the bulging stomach, because of the burning pain after being penetrated, and because of everything that the man left on him trace.

The cells are filled, the blood is rolling, and the warmth flows into the abdomen.

He was thus, literally, brought back to life.

Ji Xi put on the smart assistant and soft chip, and began to re-process the work.

As soon as he connected, the device was instantly filled with various messages, including greetings from Wang Cheng and Chen Guangda, questions from Huang Huaiyuan, and two messages from Liu Meng.

She sent Ji Xi a message about having dinner with him last week. At that time, Ji Xi had just been imprisoned, so naturally she didn't reply.

Then, three days later, she sent another sentence, Xiao Lu, are you okay?

Then there was no sound.

Ji Xi frowned, somehow, he felt that Liu Meng seemed to know a lot.

He hadn't explored the relationship between Yanyi and them before, but he knew it was not easy.

Bai Qihuan himself is the commander-in-chief in charge of the arsenal, what is he going to do?

Ji Xi thought for a while, and sent Liu Meng a message back.

Ji Xi: I'm fine, it's just that I was busy a while ago.I'm free this week, have a meal together?

Liu Meng replied quickly, her tone seemed cheerful.

Liu Meng: Alright, I will send you the time and place later!

Then, Ji Xi dealt with the other people's news one by one, and finally it was Lu Mingxiu's turn.

Chang Huai was alarmed by such a big mistake, Ji Xi had to explain to his partner both emotionally and rationally.

The inside is empty, and the security measures of this special chip are very good. The communication interface of the two of them has no name, and it will only be displayed when new messages are received, and past messages will only be kept for two hours. It will be automatically deleted in the chip, and special encryption technology is used to ensure that the deleted content will not be re-read by any means.

Ji Xi: I'm back.

Ji Xi: Sorry for disappearing for so long.

Lu Mingxiu:?Are you yourself?

Ji Xi: I am Ji Xi.

Lu Mingxiu: Oh my god, you finally showed up.

Lu Mingxiu: Chang Huai told me that he personally rescued you from the investigation department. I didn't expect that guy to be so loyal at critical times.

Lu Mingxiu: But you went to Chongming that day and got arrested, right?Is there something wrong with the picture he gave?

Ji Xi: No, I was not careful.

Lu Mingxiu: Huh?what's wrong with you?

Ji Xi: I'm sorry, but it's my personal problem anyway.

Lu Mingxiu: Well, since everything has happened, you don't have to blame yourself too much. Fortunately, Chang Huai took action and kept your identity from being leaked. Our plan basically doesn't need to be changed.

Lu Mingxiu: But stealing the information again may not work. Now the security in Chongming District has been greatly adjusted. Do you understand what I mean?

Ji Xi: I understand, do you have other ideas?

Lu Mingxiu: Since you can't steal it for the time being, let them give it openly.

Ji Xi looked at those words, thoughtful, for a long time, he smiled slightly, and closed the interface in front of him.

indeed so.

This time, he didn't want to hide behind others and be a turtle.

Wu Qianshu is dead, and Lu Mingxiu and Chang Huai can't intervene. He has to climb up by himself, sit in a high position in the army like Wu Qianshu once, and use his own strength to regain the Shencheng base.

The matter is indeed not at the point of desperation, at least now it seems that his criminal record of stealing information has been completely suppressed, and even the convenient false identity of "Lu Xi" is well preserved, and he still has a chance to make a comeback.

Of course, this is a more difficult road full of thorns. It is like walking a tightrope at a high altitude. If you don't pay attention, you will be smashed to pieces.

——If you do something wrong, you must learn to bear the consequences yourself.

When Yanyi came back in the evening, his face was very bad, he had always been like this these days, and Ji Xi didn't know what kind of troubles he had encountered outside, that made him look so bad.

But the moment he opened the door and saw Ji Xi waiting for him, all the snow and ice on his face melted, and he returned to his familiar appearance.

He put a few packed dishes on the dining table, and Ji Xi took them spontaneously, took out a few empty bowls, and put the meals in the cooker to heat up.

Yan Yi was behind him, with his big hands gently resting on Ji Xi's waist: "Is there any discomfort?"

Immediately, Ji Xi's face was a little hot. He knew what Yan Yi was asking, and replied hesitantly: "It's okay, it's just... um... it still hurts."

Yan Yi chuckled behind him, probably because he found that Ji Xi was embarrassed and thought it was funny, he leaned close to Ji Xi's face and said in a low voice, "I'll give you another dose of medicine that night, and I'll give you another medicine in two days. keep."

Ji Xi turned his head strangely: "Medicine? What kind of medicine?"

"It's just for your wounds." Yan said, "I painted it on you once before I left, and you probably didn't feel it."

Ji Xi's eyelashes fluttered a few times, like trembling butterfly wings, extremely sensational.

Yan Yi wrapped his arms around his back, and gently kissed the corner of his mouth.

Ji Xi raised the corners of his lips unconsciously, and kissed him in response.

While eating, Ji Xi could still notice that Yan Yi's expression was a little dignified and gloomy, but he was trying his best not to let Ji Xi find out.

Ji Xi's heart sank slightly, he always felt that something serious must have happened if Yan Yi could show such an expression.

He absentmindedly ate two mouthfuls of rice, finally put down his chopsticks, and asked directly: "Yan Yi, what happened?"

Yan Yi stared at him with complicated eyes, he paused for a moment, a trace of hesitation flashed across his face, and finally heaved a long sigh.

He said, "Did you know that Qi Hao is a clerk at Chongming Research Institute?"

Ji Xi reacted for a moment, remembering that Qi Hao was the middle-aged man who took his wife and children shopping but was killed on the street. The investigation report at that time did mention his occupation, but Ji Xi ignored it at the time.

"Yeah." Ji Xi nodded, "Did you find out who killed him?"

Yan Yi shook his head: "The investigation department is the mouthpiece of the Chang family, they dare not investigate this matter."

He continued slowly: "But just a while ago, about a month ago, the distortion virus detection machine at the city gate was recalled once, and it was sent back intact after being overhauled by the Chongming Research Institute."

Ji Xi froze for a moment.

"Qi Hao works in that department. As a clerk, he has handled the inspection report of the recalled machine. I guess he may have seen something he shouldn't have read, so he was silenced."

Ji Xi's face turned pale.

A month ago, a month ago... Wasn't that the time when he went to see Wu Qianshu?

It is so, it is so.

At that time, Wu Qianshu assured him after hearing what he said that he would ask the Chongming Research Institute to re-check the testing equipment, and the recall was in response to his request.

Then he died inexplicably. ?If this can still be said to be just a coincidence, then the assassination of Qi Hao, a small civil servant, by a hired professional killer in the street really proves that there is indeed a serious problem with that batch of instruments, and this incident was discovered by the base's senior management So they were desperate, even at the expense of a general of the general headquarters, and they wanted to kill all the insiders.

Ji Xi's face was gloomy and cold.

Who can do this, and who is afraid of the detection equipment being exposed, except for the deformed person who wiped out his whole family in the Shencheng base, who else?

The worst possibility has come true, and the top executives of Beicheng base are also mixed with abnormal people who retain complete human sanity just like Shencheng. They are mixed in human society, and they will show their malicious fangs at any time.

They may even have completely controlled the entire base, surrounding the humans in the base like a pigsty, feeding them and slowly eating away at them.

Ji Xi looked at Yan Yi, a terrifying guess gradually formed in his heart, he moved his lips with difficulty: "Chang Wentao...is there something wrong?"

Is he really Chang Wentao?Or a monster in human skin?
