The smirk on his face gradually subsided, Qi Yang straightened his face, and said seriously: "I need a reason. Moreover, based on the feedback from the research institute's previous cleaning and investigation, as of the end of the Yangtze River estuary, the underwater mutated herds are used The result of the machine scan is the highest grade C. The research institute will send people to investigate again every month, and there is no need for a detailed sweep.”
Jing Xia shook her head: "You also said before that the mutated rose is rapidly mutating at a speed that none of you can imagine, from D-level to C-level, and even faintly surpassing C-level. No one can guarantee that, now, right now Will there be advanced mutants at the bottom of that river?"
Naturally, it was impossible for Jing Xia to tell Qi Yang directly that just half a month later, the entire S city base would usher in the first wave of beasts, and the central area where the first attack broke out was the Huangpu River near the Bund.
Thousands of mutant beasts broke out of the water and landed ashore. Tens of thousands of E-level mutants, nearly a thousand D-level mutants, hundreds of C-level mutants, dozens of B-level mutants, and even a few A-level mutants!
These ferocious beasts landed on the shore, and together with the mutated plants that had been lurking on the land for an unknown how long and where, they attacked the unprepared humans on the land.
Bloody, whimpering, mourning.
The entire city of S was filled with turbid gas, and even the air was filled with a rancid and unpleasant smell of death.
But it was impossible for Jing Xia to tell Qi Yang directly about this first attack by a beast horde that had never had a hint of it, not only because he couldn't explain the reason, but also because... the other party would never believe it.
Suspecting that there would be a powerful mutant at the bottom of the river already made Qi Yang scoff. And tell him directly: there are at most 20 days left, and city S will usher in the first beast tide, and he will ignore it even more.
Unless... Expose your own rebirth.
Jing Xia turned her head to look at Ji Chuancheng, and just when she raised her gaze, she met Ji Chuancheng. I saw a small self reflected in those deep and dark eyes, with a helpless and hesitant expression, making up his mind but not knowing how to do it.
Jing Xia's heart sank.
Ji Chuancheng shook his head slightly, even though he didn't speak, he understood what Jing Xia meant. The answer he gave to this question was—
Can not be exposed.
Qi Yang looked at the "winking" appearance of the two people in front of him, slowly curled his lips into a chuckle and said, "Xiao Xiazi, just using an instrument to scan the mutations of the mutant beasts in the river is already very costly, even a long time. It’s only been 5 days since a wave of scanning activities, and I really can’t accept that you’re asking for another more detailed sweep without giving me a proper reason.”
Jing Xia was at a loss for words for a while, and for a moment, he said excitedly: "Qi Yang, you really believe me. If you help me do this, I can reveal a secret about Su Weishang to you, maybe... with his piece of jade related."
This kind of thing that consumes manpower and material resources is almost impossible to achieve in the last days. The research institute has always been in charge of cleaning up the mutants at the bottom of the river, and only a group of lunatics like them can create a machine for detecting mutant beasts. In this matter, even the three founders of City S have no room to intervene.
At such a time, Jing Xia naturally understands that the only one who can help is Qi Yang, who has always been foolish in front of him.
Qi Yang smiled lowly: "Oh? Then tell me first, if it is really useful, I promise to help."
Taking a deep breath, Jing Xia said slowly: "Actually, when I went to participate in the cleaning mission, I ran into Su Weishang outside the base. At that time... he seemed to be looking for something. If I read it correctly, it should be a A very small green stone." After a pause, Jing Xia added: "The color and texture look very similar to his emerald gemstone."
Qi Yang's eyes widened suddenly: "What! Where is that thing now?"
"Chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp!!!"
Before Jing Xia could reply, the mutated hamster that had been lying on his head and pretending to be dead suddenly screamed desperately. It firmly bit Jing Xia's lock of hair with its small, non-destructive teeth, and kept screaming "chi chi chi chi" in its mouth.
Jing Xia looked up calmly, and then said: "Su Weishang took it away. I just saw it, but didn't touch it." His tone was very calm, as if he was explaining a natural fact.
After hearing this, the little Hei Tuanzi who was hopping around his head finally calmed down. It stretched lazily, continued to roll on the ground twice without skin and face, but stopped just at the edge, and then rolled back, looking in a good mood.
Ji Chuancheng glanced at it, but didn't speak.
After pondering for a long time, Qi Yang snorted coldly: "Damn it, this Su Weishang always steals from me. It's an unforgivable crime!"
After hesitating for a while, Jing Xia couldn't help but said, "This... doesn't seem to be yours, does it?"
Qi Yang: "As long as I like it, it's mine!"
Ji Chuancheng took a step forward silently, blocking Jing Xia behind his tall and straight body. He turned his head and said: "Qi Yang was spoiled by others in the penalty area, and he has some brain problems, so you don't need to talk to him."
"..."
Ji Chuancheng's voice was not deliberately lowered, Qi Yang naturally heard it too. He snorted through his nose and said with a smile: "I have a problem with my brain, and I don't think at all that Xiao Xiazi's news just now is worth our research institute spending so much manpower and financial resources to arrange a river bottom cleaning."
Jing Xia panicked: "Qi Yang, you...!"
Ji Chuancheng reached out and stopped Jing Xia, who was so angry that she was about to rush forward, looked down at Qi Yang with a disdainful and indifferent look, and said, "Major Qi Yang, Team A of the restricted area army, as the captain, I request you , to assist in the investigation of the strange situation of the mutant beasts at the bottom of the river."
Qi Yang's expression froze: "Major Ji, you..."
"Major Qi, do you want to disobey the military order?"
"... dare not. Yes!"
Hearing Qi Yang's affirmative promise, Jing Xia breathed a sigh of relief, and his whole body relaxed. Because of the end of one matter, his vigilance was temporarily relaxed, and Qi Yang approached Ji Chuancheng with a smile that was not a smile, and whispered: "Major Ji, you seem to be interested in entertaining me. Xia Zi is happy about this, do you find it interesting?"
Ji Chuan lowered his eyes and gave him a cold look.
But Qi Yang didn't care: "Major Ji, code-named x, I didn't expect the Jingxia you talked about every day to be like this. It really surprised me when we met for the first time. I thought... it should be a fragile girl. A boy who is delicate enough to break when touched, for example... well, the Su Wei just now was pretty good."
Hearing this, Ji Chuancheng finally stopped being silent: "Disgusting."
Qi Yang was taken aback for a moment, smiled teasingly and stopped talking, and after explaining something, he turned and walked towards the laboratory. Jing Xia looked at Qi Yang's slender back, the large white coat was worn empty on his body, as if his whole body was only supported by a skeleton, and he could walk due to the wind.
"What are you looking at?" Ji Chuan turned his body calmly, blocking Jing Xia's sight.
Jing Xia was slightly taken aback, and then said reflexively: "I was wondering... Qi Yang, is he not like what Sister Qin said, ruthless, emotionless, with only experiments in his eyes, never caring about other people's feelings, It's an annihilation..." After hesitating for a while, Jing Xia still said, "It's a machine that annihilates humanity."
When Ji Chuancheng heard the words, his thin lips curled slightly, and there was a little smile in his dark eyes: "What do you think?"
Jing Xia immediately shook her head: "Of course not!"
"That's not it."
Saying that, the two turned around and walked in opposite directions together. The soft yellow sunlight shone behind the two of them, and two long shadows elongated, dragging on the floor of the corridor. Jing Xia walked slightly forward, Ji Chuancheng stepped back, turned around and went downstairs, their shadows were silently intertwined and merged into one, and they could no longer tell the difference.
Jing Xia asked curiously: "I heard just now... Qi Yang seems to be from Team A of your restricted area?"
Ji Chuancheng nodded: "Well, he is. He and I are the first two or two people who were selected together at the beginning."
Frowning with a clear brow, Jing Xia asked suspiciously: "Then, the relationship between you is quite close, how do you feel... you always sarcastic each other, even a little... want to fight?" No exaggeration, at least he felt just now that these two people said one more word, maybe they would have to shake their fists.
At a place that Jing Xia didn't notice, Ji Chuancheng's straight body froze suddenly, then quickly adjusted and continued to move forward. After a long time, just when Jing Xia thought that the other party would not answer, he suddenly heard Ji Chuancheng's voice, with a strange tone: "Do you think we are... very close?"
Jing Xia took it for granted: "Isn't it? At least, you won't do that to Kai. Of course, it's impossible for Yu Kai to contradict you like Qi Yang. This must complement each other." After solving a major matter in his heart, Jing Xia Feeling very happy, he continued: "You went to the army when you were 16 years old, and you should have a good relationship with those comrades, but I always feel that your attitude towards Qi Yang... seems very strange."
The more I talked, the more I felt that I made sense, and the more I talked, I could recall some strange things.
Jing Xia said: "For example, when we drove out of the restricted area before, you even handed over the car to Yu Kai and Sister Qin, and insisted on sitting next to Qi Yang. Another example, when we got out of the car for dinner, you asked Put the sleeping bag next to Qi Yang. Eh?! This... seems a bit strange!"
The beautiful and flamboyant peach eyes suddenly widened, and a flash of inspiration flashed in Jing Xia's mind. He suddenly remembered that when he was in the circle of City B, some bastards would often joke about—
The military is the best place to cultivate same-sex feelings!
"A Chuan! You shouldn't be talking to Qi Yang..." The words were drowned in his throat, Jing Xia swallowed, and said, "You can't do this, A Chuan! Your Ji family is still waiting to pass on your family, Uncle Ji How can you..."
"Jing Xia!!!"
The sudden raised voice made Jing Xia's next words choked in his throat, and he looked at Ji Chuancheng stupidly. The latter's face was completely black, and a raised vein burst out on his forehead, as if he was suppressing his emotions.
Jing Xia reluctantly said, "Ah... Ah Chuan?"
Gritting his teeth, the handsome and elegant man looked down at the young man's innocent face. The handsome face and suspicious eyes made his full of anger disappear without a trace. He clenched his fists, and finally sighed softly, then raised his hand to rub the soft hair on the young man's head.
"I'm sitting next to Qi Yang, who else am I sitting next to? I'm sleeping next to him, who else am I sleeping next to?"
"Jingxia, think about it clearly!"
