Plant Invasion [End Times]

"No. You think too much." Jin Shao subconsciously wanted to hold his hand again, but Shen Kuo avoided it.

Jin Shao was caught off guard. He looked at his hand for a moment, then retracted it as if nothing had happened, and tried to soften his tone: "I went there last night. After we come back, go after you fall asleep. Yes. The lines of the No. [-] Temporary Base were almost destroyed, and many communication devices were out of power. I just went out to try my luck, but I didn’t expect to find a fax machine with some power left. I I just sent a message to the base city..."

Shen Kuo looked at him gravely, and wanted to say that since you have contacted the base city, why did you act again in the morning, pretending to know nothing about the No. [-] temporary base, and wanted to say that you have a whole morning to tell me You contacted Base City, but why did you hide it until now? I want to say that this is not the first time you have lied to me...

When he set off, he was feeling faintly uneasy all the time. He didn't know where the uneasiness came from. He could only find the reason for himself. After thinking about it, he only felt that the possible danger came from the researchers' attitude towards him.At the moment of the big event, he couldn't allow him to think too much, although he felt uneasy, he followed Jin Shao on the road under pressure.

On the way, he repeatedly asked Jin Shao for a safety guarantee. Jin Shao didn't know why he was worried, but he himself knew that he had a very accurate premonition of danger since he was a child.He may not be very good himself, but he can always seek advantages and avoid disadvantages with some seemingly invisible subconsciousness, otherwise he wouldn't be able to suddenly run to his grandfather's house in the middle of school.

Although it happened for a reason, but after thinking about it, even if he quarreled with his father, there are countless places to go, but why did he go to his grandfather's house where life is inconvenient?In the past, the loose management of the villagers in the village may not have been because he did not feel any danger.And the fact is also like this, although the people in their village are all living a relaxed life, but when outsiders came twice, they were immediately driven away once, and Jin Shao came in the other time.

As for Shen Kuo's vague sense of crisis, after Jin Shao entered the village, there was no movement until they discovered the huge secret in another world, and the two immediately decided to go to the base city.At that time, his heart skipped a beat, and he felt faintly uneasy.

But Shen Kuo really didn't understand what Jin Shao had to hide from him.He thought that they had risked their lives to explore so many times in other worlds, and they had a life-threatening friendship.

He is not a warrior like Jin Shao, who has long put his own life and death aside, he is an ordinary person, he is timid, and he is afraid of death.But he's not that short-sighted coward either.

It was a matter of human survival, so would he not go because he was afraid of any danger on the road or because he was afraid that something would be bad for him in the base city?If something really happened, couldn't he, Jin Shao, speak out frankly and let him know?Does he have that little confidence in him?

He didn't know what Jin Shao was hiding from him, but no matter what it was, it shouldn't be a reason for him to hide himself.

Shen Kuo thought of the scene where he pestered Jin Shao time and time again to ask him to keep him safe because of anxiety on the road, how determined Jin Shao was at that time.Now think about it, why is he so sure?Why so confident?Didn't he know the nature of human struggle, that there are times when some people are desperate for power?What was he trying to hide by assuring himself so eagerly that the base city was no danger to him?

Shen Kuo felt that his uneasiness was getting worse. He didn't know where his uneasiness came from, but he was sure now—this uneasiness must have something to do with Jin Shao, and he still had something to hide from himself.

Jin Shao's explanation might not be true, but he didn't want to hear any more.Because smart people lie, nine points are true and one point is false.If Jin Shao was more sincere, he could guarantee that what he said was true, but the one-sided truth is not what he wants to hear.

He looked at Jin Shao coldly, Jin Shao was still arguing with him about the fax machine.He repeatedly explained to him that he was just doing it on a temporary basis, and he didn't mean to hide it from him.

Shen Kuo thought of many things to say to Jin Shao, but in the end, he took a deep breath and said nothing.

Jin Shao saw him look like "you don't need to say any more, I don't believe it", struggle flashed across his face, he squeezed his fist, and didn't say any more, like Shen Kuo cast his gaze forward.

Not far away, the closed city gate suddenly opened.

A group of soldiers ran out first, neatly lined up in two rows, and then a group of white coats filed out.

The man in the front of the white coat looked very young, with a slender body and a handsome face. He must have been the kind of handsome professor who could charm a lot of young girls in the past.

Well, if he hadn't been bald before.

The worst thing is that the beauties are late, followed by the handsome guys who are bald.

Even though there were countless unspeakable heaviness flickering in his heart, but the moment he noticed the handsome bald guy, Shen Kuo couldn't help being distracted and swiped a series of bullet screens in his heart.

A large group of people walked towards him with solemn faces, looking directly at them, Shen Kuo was sure that they knew about him in advance.Shen Kuo suddenly found that not only did he not feel nervous, but he also wanted to laugh.

Shen Kuo glanced at Jin Shao who was staring at the front with a serious face, and found it even more ridiculous.

Without him, he found that the handsome bald guy was [-]% similar to Jin Shao.In fact, in terms of facial features alone, there may be some similarities. It's just that the man's refined and scholarly air is so different from Jin Shao's cold and serious warrior air, which gives people the illusion that they are completely alike.

Even though he was sure that Jin Shao was lying to himself, Shen Kuo couldn't help but sneered and stabbed him at this moment when he saw the slap in the face: "That's what you said, the two factions are fighting, your brother may suffer What happened?"

"Come out as a leader, it's really unpredictable."

"I don't know." Jin Shao said seriously with a serious face.

It sounds like it's true.

Shen Kuo ignored him, shook his head to himself, and looked at the person who was approaching quickly.

"You are Comrade Shen. On behalf of the people of Base City, I would like to thank you for coming. You have worked hard along the way." The handsome bald guy expressed his condolences and extended a friendly hand to Shen Kuo. Others also nodded to him with faint smiles. .

Shen Kuo pursed his lips, forced an ugly smile, shook hands with him without saying a word, and then quickly withdrew his hand.

Shen Kuo's indifference stunned the person from the base, and he subconsciously turned his gaze to Jin Shao who had just been completely ignored by the crowd.

Sure enough, you already got in touch last night?Shen Kuo sneered in his heart, and followed suit, wanting to see what he was going to do.

Jin Shao still had a serious face, he didn't look at his elder brother, nor did he look at Shen Kuo, he looked straight at an old man behind him, saluted a military salute, and said loudly: "Report to the chief, the task has been completed, please instruct."

Shen Kuo followed his gaze to look at the white-haired old man. The old man had a kind face, and he looked more like a scientific researcher than anyone else in the white coat. There was only a trace of murderousness occasionally flashing between his brows and eyes. It faintly shows his specialness.

The old man who was questioned by Jin Shao didn't intend to come out, he just nodded slightly, and then said: "You go home." Then he stopped talking.

A flash of astonishment quickly flashed in Jin Shao's eyes, and then he immediately lowered his head, said "yes" in a deep voice, and then walked towards the city behind with his head down without saying a word.

From the beginning to the end, he never looked back at Shen Kuo.

Shen Kuo watched him go away with a gloomy expression.The researcher who seemed to be Jin Shao's brother suddenly said as if explaining: "Jin Shao still has his work to do."

Shen Kuo withdrew his gaze and said nonchalantly, "It's nothing, I'll just take a look."

The man smiled lightly, and then said seriously: "Jin Shao has already told us about the matter, which is related to the survival of mankind. Although we also trust Jin Shao, I believe you will not use this kind of thing to deceive us. But I Think, still want to..."

"You want evidence, don't you?" Shen Kuo said.

"Well, yes. Well, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Jin Shao's brother, Jin Qi. I don't mean anything malicious, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just..." A trace of embarrassment flashed across the handsome man's face.

"I know." Seeing his blushing face, Shen Kuo thought to himself, is this person really the leader of this gang?

However, as Jin Shao said before, he has a special status, no matter how the people in the base city fight among themselves, it will not affect him.Shen Kuo didn't bother to guess what happened to this man who called himself Jin Shao's brother. He came to save mankind, not to fight with people. He just had to do what he should do.

Thinking of this in his heart, Shen Kuo still couldn't help but sneer: No matter what Jin Shao's situation is now and who he belongs to, it is certain that he wants to help his brother.Unfortunately, he was about to let him down.

"Captain Jin Shao protected me all the way here, I am very grateful to him." Shen Kuo said slowly, seeing Jin Qi's expression was flat, he continued: "But before he was injured and dying at my place, it was me Saved him. This back and forth can be regarded as offsetting."

Jin Qi's complexion changed, Shen Kuo ignored him, casually made a clean and juicy radish, took a bite, and said: "The evidence you want, this is the evidence."

"This..." Jin Qi's face was ugly, he looked at Shen Kuo, hesitant to speak.

But someone behind finally couldn't stand it anymore, and came out with a smile to smooth things over: "What are you all doing blocking the gate of the city? Comrade Xiao Shen came from a long way, and the journey was hard. It's not too late, we'd better go into the city and talk about this Bar."

"Ah, yes." Jin Qi seemed to have just realized it, and quickly signaled Shen Kuo to follow him into the city: "Let's go in first, and the mayor and the others are still waiting. We will talk at the research institute."

With a glance, Shen Kuo noticed that this person was standing right behind Jin Qi just now, whether it was Jin Qi's assistant or someone else.He didn't think too much, wasn't he just worried that he wouldn't give him food?I don't know what these people are thinking. If he doesn't want to give food, why would he come.

Shen Kuo followed the crowd into the city without saying a word, and got on the car to the research institute.

Shen Kuo's car was located in the center of the entire convoy, with armored vehicles leading the way.

The car drove extremely slowly, because during the time the car was driving, it was surrounded by heavily armed soldiers.The guards walk a few steps, and the car walks a few steps.

Shen Kuo looked out through the car window. He had been to this city before the doomsday. At that time, he only thought it was a bustling and lively city, full of vitality.But now when he looked outside, he could only see the unspeakable depression in the whole city.

The original population of this city was only 700 million, but now it has a population of more than 2000 million. It stands to reason that it should appear very crowded and noisy.Even if strict management measures are implemented, so many people live here, there must be some movement.But Shen Kuo not only couldn't see anyone, he didn't even hear any extra human voices.

A big city with more than 2000 million people living there is quiet like a dead city.

Perhaps seeing Shen Kuo frowning, Jin Qi, who hadn't spoken since he was rescued just now, explained: "It's time for a break."

Shen Kuo's mind flashed the new base city law that Jin Shao had shown him before, and he understood it clearly.

For the people of the base city, the daily activity time is from [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] pm.Rest in bed the rest of the time - to conserve energy.Of course, relying on the little food handed out every day, no one has the energy to jump around.

Shen Kuo glanced at Jin Qi, and saw that he was looking at his heart, as if he wasn't the one who explained to himself just now.

Shen Kuo was a little curious now.

Before, he looked as if he wanted to set up a relationship with himself, although he failed a bit.But ever since the person behind him opened his mouth to smooth things over, he looked relieved and never communicated with himself again, as if he was forced to take the initiative to communicate with himself before.

Then he suddenly explained to himself what does it mean?

Shen Kuo looked at him suspiciously.

There are four people sitting in the car now, except for the driver, the other three are all in white coats.The other two were the ones standing behind Jin Qi when they came out just now.I don't know why, except that Jin Qi made the atmosphere tense and someone came out to smooth things over, the others didn't take the initiative to come out and communicate with him.

They seemed to be waiting for him to speak up.

And he didn't speak all the way, and the others could only be silent all the way.

Shen Kuo thought to himself, isn't it just waiting for him to bring out the food himself?Although Shen Kuo didn't bother to care about any power disputes in the base city, but just a few times after entering the door, through the reactions of everyone, he had roughly determined that there were at least two groups of people who came to meet him.Now the two people in his car are probably the highest-ranking people among the two factions who came out to pick him up - he has food in his hand, and of course the other party still wants to make acquaintance.

As for Jin Qi, Shen Kuo also understood now that he would not believe the leader of which faction he was.He seems to be the role of a puppet mascot, specially used to test him, and he will say anything that may offend him.

But Shen Kuo didn't know why he was a scientific researcher, and why he was brought in as a tester, and what was the relationship behind this.

The uneasiness in Shen Kuo's heart never subsided.In fact, just like Jin Shao, he really couldn't imagine what would threaten him in the base city with his status.He is a rich boy, who can not welcome him?

But because of this obvious sense of uneasiness, Shen Kuo has always been vigilant in his heart.

Moreover, the current situation in the base city is also very unusual. Since they said they had received news from Jin Shaoxiang, they must also know how serious the matter is.But why did everyone act like they were not in a hurry to ask him about the situation?

There were also guards surrounding the convoy tightly. Shen Kuo glanced out the window, and Jin Qi said that it was time for a break.Since it was rest time, why were they surrounded so tightly?Is there any danger in the base city?

Just as he was thinking, there was a sudden noise in front of him.
