When Tong Su came out of the bathroom, she found that Wu Ming had left at some point.
But there were a lot of things on the table.
A piece of soap, a set of toothbrushes and toothpaste, a mirror, a bag of compressed biscuits, and a bottle of water.
He went out, got these things back for her, and then left again
Tong Su pursed her lips.
She couldn't tell how she felt, but it was as if someone had lit a stove for her in the depths of the despairing, dark ice and snow. It wasn't big, it was small, but it was warm and bright.
The only warmth and light in the cold darkness.
Her face finally blossomed, the first trace of a smile that had come to this hellish place.
The base is deep underground and has no windows. Ventilation relies entirely on ventilation pipes and air conditioners. There is no sunlight and there are no clocks. Naturally, it is impossible to tell any time.
Tongsu ate compressed biscuits and drank half a bottle of water, but he never came back. The more she waited, the more tired she became. At some point, she fell asleep in a daze.
When I woke up again, the room was dark and the lights were out.
She sat up suddenly.
Suddenly, a chill ran down his back, as if he was being watched by someone. He turned around in surprise and looked in the direction of the gaze, and saw a pair of dark, sharp eyes.
"!!!"
Tong Su's whole body was tense and extremely nervous.
It was Wu Ming, and he was awakened by her movements.
He did not sleep on the bed, but was neatly dressed and sitting in the corner next to the table with his knees bent. The dagger was tied to his waist and was within easy reach.
An alert and guarded posture towards the door.
"You... are back? Don't you want to sleep?" She whispered, "I haven't thanked you yet. Thank you for bringing me toiletries and food."
The man ignored her, closed his eyes and remained silent.
Tong Su paused and lay back down again.
It was obvious that although this room was a man's dormitory, this bed was not his place to rest.
He is like someone who has experienced too many dangers, he is very vigilant, and he is fully alert even when sleeping.
She thought she couldn't sleep, but lying on the bed and listening to the man's steady breathing, she naturally felt an indescribable sense of security in her heart, and soon she fell asleep again.
She just lived in Wu Ming's dormitory. Wu Ming would often go out and when he came back, he would sit in the corner and fall asleep in a defensive posture.
After an unknown amount of time, Tong Su's uneasy calm was finally broken.
She was awakened by a loud noise.
"Xin You! Come out quickly and carry out your mission! Come out! Bitch, don't think that if you climb up to Wu Ming, you will be in trouble! He will die sooner or later—"
"Keep your voice down, this is Wu Ming's dormitory!"
"He's not here, why are you scolding-"
The sound of cursing could be heard from outside the door.
Tong Su sat up suddenly and heard footsteps approaching. Someone tried to kick the door. Wu Ming suddenly jumped up, and the black figure was too fast to be seen. The next moment, the door opened and closed, and the cursing outside suddenly stopped.
"... Wu! Wu Ming! You, you, you, are you in the dormitory?"
The owner of the dissuasive voice was obviously trembling. Wu Ming did not answer, and he did not dare to ask more questions. He hurriedly said: "The new task assigned by the chief requires Xin You to go..."
After saying that, he ran away quickly as if he was dragging something heavy.
It's probably the person he insulted before, but I don't know if he is still alive.
Tong Su's eyes flashed.
Wu Ming held a dagger in his hand, and the blade of the dagger was dripping with blood.
