Do androids dream of the sun?

Even though they had a lot of fear and reluctance towards the Free Army, they had no choice but to agree to the other party's invitation when they were in the other party's territory and their car was manipulated.

Zhong Ziyang has heard the name of the Liberation Army for a long time, and the smashing incident that he accidentally encountered in the D area last time added the label of reckless violence to this name, coupled with the attitude of this group of people just now, it made him even more vigilant.He was sure that if this group of people knew that half of them were from the Botts Group, the consequences would be very serious.

Zhong Ziyang followed Xiao Le step by step, his eyes quietly turned between Black - the leading man - and his subordinates a few times, and finally fell on the long-haired woman in a windbreaker next to Black body.She was wearing a mask and couldn't see her face clearly, her hands were kept in the windbreaker and she walked in a strange posture. She never stayed half a meter away from the man. The strong emotion in her eyes and the intimacy between the two all showed her Relationship with Blake.

Zhong Ziyang felt that her eyes were familiar, but he couldn't remember for a while, and was about to take a few more glances, when there was a sudden chill behind his back, and a line of sight fell on him accurately, like a thorn on his back.He turned his head quickly, the white mist was hazy, apart from their group, there were no other figures to be seen.

Xiao Le saw that his expression was wrong: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Zhong Ziyang shook his head, thinking it was someone else in the village. After all, he stared at the leader for a long time just now, feeling a little guilty for some reason.

Xiao Le also followed him and swept around, silently took Zhong Ziyang's hand, and wrote in his palm: There are very few people in the village.

After he reminded him, Zhong Ziyang realized that this was indeed the case—they didn't see a few villagers along the way, and even if they did, they all went out.

Zhong Ziyang was puzzled, but he didn't dare to say anything, he just wrote: "Look again."

Xiao Le understood, clenched his itchy palm into a fist, and straightened his waist as if nothing had happened.

They walked forward for a while, and stopped in front of a dilapidated old house.Blake said, "Here we are."

To say that this house is dilapidated is an exaggeration, with large pieces of walls peeling off, moldy spots growing on the corners, and the iron plate used as the roof is rusted and missing a corner, so fragile that it can hardly keep out the wind and rain.It was surrounded by mist, revealing a somewhat gloomy atmosphere.

Aaron sized it up and commented with a half-smile: "It's the first time I've seen such an entrance, it's quite interesting."

Entrance?Zhong Ziyang was puzzled, and blinked at Xiao Le, who shrugged his shoulders almost imperceptibly, expressing his confusion.He turned his head to look to the other side, Du Ningqi also had doubts in his eyes, but it was not obvious, but Lu Xiang frowned, watching the crowd motionless, his expression inexplicably revealed a bit of anxiety.

"Thank you for the compliment." Blake smiled, "Please."

Ya Lun pulled Du Ningqi into the door first, Lu Xiang followed closely behind, Zhong Ziyang held his backpack tightly, looked at Xiao Le, and followed everyone's footsteps side by side.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhong Ziyang walked into the door, a staircase that didn't fit in the house jumped in front of him, it was spacious and bright, and he could see to the end at a glance.Black led them down the stairs, through several lengthy secret passages, and finally walked into a neat corridor. Two burly men stood in front of the iron gate at the end. They nodded to Black and opened the door. Another world is gradually unfolding in front of everyone.

No wonder they didn't see many people on the ground, because they were all hiding underground.Zhong Ziyang lay on the railing, looked down, and couldn't help being speechless.

This is a village living underground. It seems that it should be rebuilt from a factory, but there are many people coming and going.They were standing in an air corridor, and the area below them was the living area of ​​residents, about two or three floors high. The houses were crowded, but the smoke was very strong, and the lights were bright everywhere, making it lively.

Blake found them a spare room.The place is not big, with two sofas and a tea table. There is nothing on the table except teapots and cups. It is simple but neat.He pointed to the sofa: "You can rest here."

"How long will it take for our car to be ready?" Aaron asked.

"The weather is bad now, maybe it will take two to three hours, and I will send someone to notify you then."

Black glanced at everyone with a half-smile before leading his companion out of the room.

The look in his eyes was indescribably strange, and there was not much friendliness in them at all. Zhong Ziyang's spine felt chills from his gaze, and he took a few steps back unconsciously.Behind him, Xiao Le wrapped his arms around his wrist, took him to the sofa, and pointed to his forehead: "Sit down, I'll show you."

The situation was urgent just now, Xiao Le didn't have time to check Zhong Ziyang's injuries.He pushed the person onto the sofa, raised his hand and lightly touched the big red and swollen bag, and then heard Zhong Ziyang gasping for air.He frowned: "It hurts?"

Zhong Ziyang straightened his waist and stared at the buttons on Xiao Le's clothes without turning his eyes: "Actually, it's okay..."

Xiao Le didn't speak, took out a wound medicine from his bag, and carefully applied it on Zhong Ziyang's wound, which made Zhong Ziyang's face wrinkle from the pain, even the corners of his eyes were red.Seeing this, Xiao Le was at a loss for a moment, and leaned over to blow it like a ghost.

The slight coolness coming from the forehead made Zhong Ziyang startled, and stared blankly at Xiao Le. He subconsciously reached out to touch it, but the other party grabbed his wrist: "Don't touch it, does it still hurt?"

"……much better."

"That's fine." Xiao Le backed away a little, and put the wound medicine back into his backpack.

The subtle atmosphere caught Aaron's attention.He stared at the two people on the other side of the sofa for a while, then asked Du Ningqi in a low voice: "Is that Xiao Le really a bionic person?"

Du Ningqi didn't know his intention, and it was not easy to reveal Xiao Le's true identity, so he admitted: "Yes."

Aaron's expression suddenly became even more strange: "Then what is his relationship with Zhong Ziyang?"

Du Ningqi raised his eyebrows, his eyes fell on Zhong Ziyang and Xiao Le, a flash of understanding flashed across his face, he thought for a while, and said ambiguously: "It's hard to say, what you think is what it is."

Aaron: "..." He asked because he was not sure!

Aaron has worked in the Botts Group for several years and has never seen a bionic person with autonomous emotions. In order to avoid this situation, they will also conduct regular inspections.Aaron has always insisted that androids are just a kind of machine to help them. This is the education he received and the principle of work is the same to this day.

Counting the relationship over the past few days, no matter how unimaginable the guess, you can find strong evidence from it. Aaron's long-standing views have been shaken a little under the impact of reality.

He was about to question Du Ningqi, but at this moment the door was pushed open.

A woman in a windbreaker stood outside the door, holding several bags of food in her hand.She glanced at Lu Xiang first, then walked slowly into the door, put the things bag by bag on the coffee table in front of them, and then made a bunch of gestures to everyone without saying a word.Those people on the sofa looked at each other, not knowing why, only Lu wanted to say: "She said, these are food for us, please use it slowly."

She nodded and agreed with Lu Xiang's translation.

Zhong Ziyang was startled, and then realized that the woman was actually a mute. He pointed to the food on the table and said to her, "Thank you, we will eat."

She nodded again, and then made a series of sign language to Lu Xiang. Lu Xiang looked at her, and said after a long time: "I also think, maybe I saw it somewhere."

The woman seemed very happy, her beautiful eyes exposed outside the mask were slightly curved, as gentle as water.Lu Xiang didn't speak anymore, and communicated with her in sign language. After a few back and forth, he spoke again: "No, I have to be with them."

Seeing that Lu Xiang was very persistent, she sighed regretfully and made a few more gestures.Lu Xiang smiled: "I see, thank you."

Only then did the woman put down her hands, motioned lightly to the crowd, and turned to leave.

Lu Xiang had no intention of explaining the conversation between her and the woman, so everyone didn't take the initiative to ask.Zhong Ziyang picked up one of the bags and pulled it inside a few times. It was basically dry food that was easy to take on the road. He didn't touch any of it. He put the bag back in place and whispered: "These... can I eat them? ?”

They didn't believe in Black's good intentions. To be honest, they had no choice but to agree to the invitation before. Even if they refused at that time, Black would surely have a way to bring them in, but his attitude would not be as polite as before.Anyway, I have to come here, so it is better to choose a more comfortable way. If there is a choice, who would think of coming to the base camp of the Freedom Army?

Several other people were also full of scruples, they just opened them and glanced at them, and never touched them again.And this "others" did not include Lu Xiang.

She had already opened one of the packs of compressed biscuits, and bit her mouth: "These should be prepared by Lu Nian himself. Besides, eat a little more, and you will have the strength to do other things later."

Her tone was flat, but it was like throwing a thunderbolt in a small room.Zhong Ziyang asked in surprise, "Lu Nian...is that girl? Do you know someone here?"

"I only know Lu Nian." Lu Xiang's voice was very soft, "She and I used to be colleagues, we look the same, so we have a good relationship."

"But she seems to be..." Zhong Ziyang was a little puzzled. Looking at Lu Nian's appearance, he didn't seem to be an old acquaintance with Lu Xiang, but was very interested in Lu Xiang.

"Because of some things, she has already forgotten me." Lu Xiang explained lightly.

Everyone was silent for a while.Zhong Ziyang pursed his lips lightly, Lu Nian's familiar eyes, the slightly strange walking posture just like Lu Xiang's, the tightly blocked lower half of his face and the forever lost voice appeared in his mind. He couldn't imagine, Has she ever experienced the same ordeal as Lu Xiang, or more.

Lu Xiang obviously didn't want to recall too much, so everyone stopped asking.Zhong Ziyang was uneasy, and never dared to touch the food on the table. He took out two nutritional supplements from his bag, gave one of them to Xiao Le, and continued to think to Lu: "Then what else did you just say? What do you mean?"

"I don't know, because I don't know Black's purpose, but there is one thing I'm sure of." Lu wanted to softly drop a second bomb between them, "This is not Delos, at least not the real Delos. "

Everyone stopped chewing and looked at her in a daze. Aaron was the first to react, and couldn't help but gritted his teeth and said, "Then why didn't you say it before?!"

"I thought it was true at the time. Delos is so big, it's hard to tell where its boundaries are. Before the map signal disappeared, we were actually very close to it, so I thought we really ran into it by mistake. Delos, until, until I saw that room, I didn't realize that something was wrong." Lu Xiang murmured, "No wonder they tricked Lu Nian before."

Zhong Ziyang asked suspiciously, "Are you familiar with Delos?"

Lu wanted to swallow the last bite of biscuit: "That's my home." She couldn't help smiling slightly when she saw the dull faces of the others, "The real Delos is not as scary as you imagined, don't be nervous."

Aaron frowned, and his eyes were a little more wary: "So, you are a free army?"

"No, I'm just an ordinary person living in Delos, and the free army you talk about is not the same as the free army I know." Lu Xiang said slowly, "Since the name of the free army was launched, there are Many people started to use this name, looting and doing everything, and some even changed the name of the village, just like here.” She pointed to the ground, “The real Delos, it’s not like this, it’s a Beautiful, sprawling village."

Lu Xiang showed a look of nostalgia on her face. In her only memory, Delos should have the cutest villagers and the most beautiful sunrise in the entire Noah City, which is enough to be worthy of this name, enough to be called a The birthplace of the sun god.

Compared to her, the expressions of the others were much more serious.If this is really a group of fakes who deliberately lured them into the urn, it means that not only may they not get the hover car back, but they may have to explain it here.

"Then what should we do?" Zhong Ziyang looked at Xiao Le subconsciously, and made a mouth shape, "Escape?"

Xiao Le shook his head: "The secret road is too complicated, if we go out from the original door, it will be very difficult to get our car back."

Lu Xiang pondered for a moment: "I can try to ask Lu Nian."

"But didn't you say..."

"Just asking, maybe looking at my face, she is willing to do me a favor."

Lu wanted to speak easily, stood up and stretched, then opened the door and went out.Aaron looked at her back, took the nutrient in his mouth, turned his head and asked, "Do you really believe her? And that Lu Nian?"

"I don't know Lu Nian, but I believe Lu Nian." Du Ningqi looked at him and said, "Aaron, maybe some bionics don't know what friendship is, but they know who is the one who treats them best."

For the first time ever, Aaron didn't refute.

They waited for half an hour, there was a rush of running outside the door, the door was slammed open, Lu Xiang leaned on the door, almost unable to stand, threw a board to Aaron who was closest to the door, and roared feebly : "Hurry up and go!"
