Chapter 68: Encounter

Views:

Shen Qiu took off his backpack, took out eight packs of compressed biscuits and six bottles of water, and handed them to Yun Xiaoxi. He was about to leave, and these things were useless. Anyway, he could replenish them after he went out.

"Although I can't help you with anything, I give you these things in the hope that they can be of some help to you."

"Thank you, you are really a good person, I'm leaving now!"

Yun Xiaoxi was also moved and took it. After holding the thing in her arms and thanking him, she turned around and left without hesitation.

"Good man?"

Shen Qiu was also stunned, and then said with a hint of self-mockery.

He looked at Yun Xiaoxi's back as she left, then turned his head to look at the overlapping exits not far away. For some reason, he felt a little conflicted.

To be honest, he really doesn't like to meddle in other people's business, but if it is within his ability and he is in a good mood, he might not mind intervening.

But dealing with the gray scorpion seems like a suicide mission.

"Go? Or not go?"

Shen Qiu muttered to himself, and for a moment he couldn't figure out what he was struggling with.

It was as if his thoughts were split in his mind, and two completely different voices appeared.

"The exit is right in front of us, hurry up and leave! Why bother with that? Even if there is a flood or the sky collapses and the earth breaks apart, what does it matter? Your own life is the most important!"

"You can't leave. No matter what, you are also a member of the Red League. As a citizen, you must try your best to contribute your own strength. If everyone becomes an ostrich, what's the point of regretting and complaining when disaster strikes?"

The two voices were also quarreling fiercely in Shen Qiu's mind.

Shen Qiu sighed, feeling somewhat guilty. He shouldn't have just stood there and watched.

However, Shen Qiu's body was still very honest. He turned around and walked towards the overlapping area. This is the ideal and reality!

Shen Qiu finally leaned towards reality. After all, nothing is more important than being alive.

Just when Shen Qiu reached the overlapping edge, he suddenly stopped.

Of course, it wasn't that he regretted it, but the scene before him made him completely crazy.

The vast ocean, looming in and out of sight, appeared in Shen Qiu's eyes.

"The sea? How could this happen?"

Shen Qiu was also shocked. How could he get back? Although he could swim, it was unrealistic to swim back.

Who knows how far this vast ocean is from the shore

For a moment, Shen Qiu was in a dilemma. Should he go in? Or not

In a trance, the overlap in front of my eyes began to slowly disappear.

"It's over! The exit is gone. I can only find the next one. Wait! My food and water, Yun Xiaoxi!"

The corner of Shen Qiu's mouth twitched fiercely, and he quickly turned around to chase Yun Xiaoxi.

Are you kidding? How are we supposed to survive here without water or food

And how should I tell Yun Xiaoxi

“I’m really going crazy!”

Not long after, Shen Qiu caught up with Yun Xiaoxi.

Yun Xiaoxi was seen holding the food and water given to him by Shen Qiu, with his mask slightly lifted, chewing a compressed dry food bar in his mouth, walking in the alley inside the residential building, his face full of happiness.

Shen Qiu looked confused. Giving things away? Wanting them back? He was at a loss for words.

The more he thought about it, the more headache he got. He then hardened his heart and walked around it, preparing to have a chance encounter with Yun Xiaoxi.

Not long after, Shen Qiu came to the entrance of the T-shaped alley. He leaned against the wall, posed and waited.

Soon Yun Xiaoxi appeared. She was seen chewing compressed biscuits attentively while walking straight past Shen Qiu.

Shen Qiu blinked his eyes

What's going on? Didn't see him

Seeing that Yun Xiaoxi was about to walk away, he coughed quickly.

“Ahem!”

Yun Xiaoxi was startled and stopped, pulled down the mask, turned her head to look over, and said in surprise.

"Woo, you?"

Shen Qiu coughed again and tried to organize his words to say something. Yun Xiaoxi seemed to come back to her senses, swallowed the remaining dry food stick in her mouth, and then said excitedly.

"Shen Qiu, we meet again. I didn't expect you to be here again."

"Well???"

When Shen Qiu heard Yun Xiaoxi's words, his expression froze. Yun Xiaoxi's thinking seemed to be really different from that of normal people!

But it makes sense. Any normal person wouldn't stab that bunch of desperate criminals.

"Shen Qiu? Shen Qiu? Why don't you speak?"

Seeing that Shen Qiu didn't speak for a long time, Yun Xiaoxi raised her hand and waved in front of Shen Qiu. Her movements and behavior were quite cute.

"Ahem, I didn't come in again, I didn't leave at all."

Shen Qiu began to explain.

"Ah? Why don't you leave?"

Yun Xiaoxi looked at Shen Qiu in disbelief.

"Nothing, I just think what you said makes sense. As a citizen of the Red Alliance, I have to contribute what I can, so I decided to help you!"

Shen Qiu changed his words decisively and spoke sternly.

There was nothing he could do. He really couldn't afford to lose face. So forget it, he just went all the way and teamed up with her.

"Really? Thank you so much. I knew you were a good person!"

Yun Xiaoxi thanked happily, what she needed most now was help.

Moreover, Yun Xiaoxi had seen Shen Qiu fight, and he was able to fight back and forth with Major General Bakerluo head-on, so his strength was also very strong.

"Ahem, I'm not a good person. Do you have any plans?"

Shen Qiu discussed with Yun Xiaoxi awkwardly, although the Gray Scorpion organization has a large number of members and strong strength.

But if you plan well, there is not necessarily no hope.

"Well, that group of people are exploring the laboratory in the center of the city. That's where I plan to go. If I can take something back, that would be great. If not, I'll have to disrupt their exploration!"

Yun Xiaoxi explained her thoughts very seriously.

"Then do you know how to get into the laboratory?"

Shen Qiu asked.

"have no idea."

Yun Xiaoxi was stumped by Shen Qiu's question.

Shen Qiu felt more and more worried about this action, he sighed and said.

"After all this time, you don't even know how to get in."

"this… "

Yun Xiaoxi was speechless for a moment. In fact, she had been looking for an opportunity to kill the members of the Gray Scorpion and try to obtain some information.

However, the Grey Scorpion members are extremely cautious. They always act in groups and never act alone.

Therefore, Yun Xiaoxi never succeeded.

"Never mind, I know how to get in."

Shen Qiu did not hide anything and simply said it.

When Yun Xiaoxi heard Shen Qiu's words, she said to Shen Qiu very happily.

"Really? That's great! Shen Qiu, you really helped a lot."

"That's fine, let's go. Let's quickly get to the city center before those monsters wake up."

"no problem."

The two then headed towards the city center.

On the way, Yun Xiaoxi also asked curiously.

"Shen Qiu, you are so powerful, why don't you consider joining the Red Alliance Army?"

When Shen Qiu heard Yun Xiaoxi's words, he sighed and replied.

"In fact, I once signed up for the military with great enthusiasm. But there was nothing I could do. I just couldn't pass the review! It's not that I don't want to contribute to the Red Alliance, but it's just that things don't go as planned!"

There was no other way. He still had to save face. He couldn't lose face in front of Yun Xiaoxi. Besides, he was telling the truth.

"Those auditors are such assholes! Don't worry, I'm here for you!"

Yun Xiaoxi said indignantly.

"Ahem, that's all in the past, let's not talk about it. Let's focus on exploring the way. The closer we get to the center, the higher the chance of running into the Gray Scorpion Organization and its people. Be careful of being ambushed."

Shen Qiu looked at the indignant Yun Xiaoxi, coughed, and quickly changed the subject.

"You are right."

Yun Xiaoxi took a deep breath and suppressed her anger.

"By the way, would you like to put the food and water you have in my backpack? It will be more convenient this way."

Shen Qiu asked with an awkward smile.

"Will this be too much trouble?"

"No, how could that be?"

"Okay, here you go."

Yun Xiaoxi quickly put the three packs of compressed biscuits and two bottles of water in Shen Qiu's backpack.

"That's all? Where did you hide the others?"

"No, these are all that are left. I ate the rest."

"… "
