Hu Dan turned off the monitoring and eavesdropping devices with a blank expression, and the team members beside him couldn't help but click their tongues: "A, a homosexual? Tsk, what a pity!"
Hu Dan glanced at him: "Why don't you return the things to them soon?"
The team member came back to his senses, and hurriedly ran away with something.
Hu Dan took out a pack of cigarettes from his body, took out another one, and took out a lighter in his right hand. After thinking about it, he put the lighter back in his pocket, only holding a cigarette in his mouth, his face darkened, he didn't know thinking about something.

"You—" Lian Runing felt that her heart was about to jump to her throat.
She sometimes hates herself like this. In the first 20 years of her life, she never fell in love. Although she also had vague feelings for others when she was a teenager, her focus was still on learning, and she As for now, when this feeling is getting more and more hot, she is a little helpless.
Hao Jian suddenly pulled her into his arms gently, with a gentle voice and a hint of sway: "Before I met Junior Sister, I had no one to care about, so if it wasn't for Junior Sister, I probably wouldn't go back to the south. City, and will not come here."
Lian Runing raised her hand and grabbed the clothes around Hao Jian's waist, her breath was a little unsteady, and from the tone of voice, she could hear the waves in her heart.
"So you said that you were going back to Nanfang City to get something important? You told me—" Hao Jian's confession was stuck in her throat, because no matter how she thought about it, she felt the possibility of Hao Jian "falling in love at first sight" with her. too low.
Hao Jian was speechless for a while, she knew what Lian Runing wanted to ask, but it was obviously not suitable to tell the truth now, and she didn't expect the love bound for the mission, and she was really tempted.
I don't know if I should suspect that the system has moved.
The system is very aggrieved: "The system number 2018 reiterates once again. The system cannot interfere with the host's behavior, cannot change the host's thinking, and is even less able to regulate the host's hormones, so that the host has a mentality and behavior of admiration for others."
"Okay, okay, I admit that it was because the pheromone she produced attracted me, so I was tempted." For the first time, Hao Jian didn't want to entangle with the system on these matters.
"It's not a lie, but I just thought that on the way forward, there is another reason to support me to go on firmly."
Lian Runing reached out and hugged Hao Jian, just about to say something, but she felt Hao Jian's lips almost touched her ear, she wanted to jump away subconsciously, but suddenly remembered that she was hugged tightly by Hao Jian, She can't escape.
"I know we're being watched, and I know there are bugs hidden here. If we have anything to say, we'll talk outside."
Hao Jian's words instantly dissipated Lian Runing's charming thoughts. She quickly regained her senses and understood that Hao Jian was not just here to tell her about these emotional matters. It can even be said that what she said before was just to paralyze the people who were watching them
Thinking of this, her hand grabbed Hao Jian's clothes even harder.
Hao Jian sensed the strength of the hands on the clothes, and chuckled lightly: "Little Junior Sister, I swear with my beating heart, what I just said was the truth from the bottom of my heart, and there is absolutely no element to tease you. ."
Lian Runing's heart was comforted, but she lost the passion she had just now, and she broke free from Hao Jian's arms. Looking at this face is not absolutely stunning, but it can be said that people can't help but take a few more glances when walking on the street. She can't tell whether Hao Jian is pretending to be stupid or not.
"As for Xin Ting, you don't have to worry about it, I'll just make it clear to her."
Lian Runing pondered these words. If they were normal, anyone who listened to them would think they were the lines that appeared in the standard "love triangle". But she knew that Hao Jian was not referring to emotional matters, and she even felt that Hao Jian didn't think about it at all.
"What are you going to tell her?"
Hao Jian said casually: "Naturally, I want her to understand that she has been relying on us only because she is timid, and this dependence will eventually lead her to have a wrong feeling. She didn't realize her dependence on others for a day. Then she can't have the courage to act alone. Because she lacks self-confidence and is too dependent on others, she likes to go in groups and care about what others think of her."
Lian Runing said in surprise: "I don't seem to have told you her thoughts."
"When you asked me to consider her mood, didn't you already explain everything?"
"... Before you studied anthropology, it shouldn't be so scary, right?"
Hao Jian looked at her fixedly, and then said charismatically, "I'll take this as a compliment from my junior sister!"
Although the two wanted to say something, the escort team member Hu Dan sent to bring back the equipment to Hao Jian came over. When he came straight to Lian Runing's room to find Hao Jian, they all understood that they were really being watched.
So even if Hu Dan returned the equipment to them, it was not enough to show that he completely trusted them.
Hao Jian didn't care either. After confirming that there was no missing bullet in the magazine, he hid it on his body again.
Ignoring the inquiring eyes of the team member that circulated among them, Hao Jian asked, "Is there anything to eat, we are a little hungry."
He regained his senses, his eyes narrowed, but his expression hesitated. It wasn't until some voices came from the earphones that he said: "There is a cafeteria on the first floor. The cafeteria is not closed at the moment, so let's go eat!"
"Thank you." Hao Jian paused, "I want to ask, we still have a companion, how is it now?"
The escort team member asked back: "Does it really matter to you? That guy's behavior is too suspicious. We still need to verify his identity to confirm whether he is telling the truth."
Hao Jian and Lian Runing didn't ask how to check, after all, there are still more official means!
___
Peng Mao and Xin Ting went to the cafeteria with Hao Jian and Lian Runing. They have been hungry for a long time, but they are taboo against surveillance cameras, so they have been holding back and not going out. They thought they were under surveillance and could not go out at will. Someone gave them food, but they didn't expect them to be restrained at all, and they were embarrassed by their own oolong.
There were only a few workers and guards in the cafeteria, and only one of the seven or eight windows was open. There was no trace of the rice, soup, and dishes in the big buckets, only the steamed buns with white noodles. , with the pickles that used to only appear as side dishes.
Each person received two steamed buns and a small plate of pickles. Although the steamed buns were not as big as the northern ones, they were the size of their palms. Although two steamed buns are not enough for a person with a big appetite, they can't starve to death.
The escort team member explained: "Although we have stored some food here, it is only enough for our daily food and for the workers. You are not many, and you can't eat many meals, so you can get this treatment."
"Are there already so few of you?" Hao Jian raised his chin.
"How is that possible? There is still a motor unit operating in the factory building, and people need to take turns to guard it. As for the rest, they basically go back to rest after eating."
Hao Jian knew that the escort they sent out to transport food lost contact, so he guessed that there should not be a lot of food here. It is a miracle that dozens of mouths can last for a few months.
There are more questions about the conflict between the Xinghua City Guard and "Wugui", and she has not found a suitable time to ask questions. Of course, she can ask questions now, but when she falls in the ears of the other party, she may not suspect that she is inquiring about their truth for "Wugui".
After they finished their "dinner", Shi Gongzhui appeared in front of them as if peeling off a layer of skin.
Hao Jian pushed the remaining pickles in front of him: "Replenish, physical strength?"
Seeing that it was pickles, he lost his appetite even more: "I'll just eat my stockpile later."
"Why are you so listless, doesn't it mean that you are cleared of suspicion that you can come out?" Lian Runing breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't mention it, I was trained by them for a long time, saying that if it weren't for the extraordinary period now, I would have to bear several charges, and the sentence to life would be light. And the equipment I spent so much money on may have to be confiscated. ."
Hao Jian was not surprised, and comforted him in a rare way: "You have to think on the positive side. With all the secrets you have eavesdropped on, it would be considered a tolerance for you not to keep you here."
"...That's true." Shi Gongzhui finally lifted his spirits.
Peng Mao couldn't believe it: "Is that so?"
"What do you want me to be like?"
"They're not worried about letting you go. You're going to reveal so many secrets?"
Shi Gongdui sneered: "I told you everything I heard, I can't go, and you don't want to go either."
Peng Mao spat at him: "I know you are treacherous and cunning."
Having said that, Peng Mao was not angry either. It was probably because he saw that the guards had released Shi Gongzhui, which proved that Shi Gongzhui was indeed fine, so he accepted Shi Gongzhui's existence from the bottom of his heart.
___
It was at this moment that Hu Dan came over. He took three steamed buns, a bowl of porridge and a plate of pickles from the window, and sat across from Hao Jian and the others.
Peng Mao touched his still not full stomach and knew that Hu Dan's extra porridge and steamed buns were the envy of outsiders like them.
"If you're not full, go get another one! Although we don't have much food here, we can't just watch the masses starve." Hu Dan said.
Peng Mao thanked him with a smile, and went to the window to get two more steamed buns. Although there was no porridge, he gave him an extra bottle of mineral water.
Except for him, the other four did not move. Hu Dan looked at them with a smile in his eyes: "What? Do you think that we have been hurt by the people once, so we have no compassion for the masses?"
Hu Dan is only in his twenties. Although his appearance is not handsome, he has a kind face. He always has a faint smile on his face, and occasionally shows a warm smile, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.
However, Hao Jian knew that the smile was just his appearance. Beneath his smile was his prudence, suspicion and sensitivity. He numbs others with appearances, disintegrates their guards, and then uses words to convey the information he wants to get.
Such a person is much more difficult to deal with than a just and strict person like Yi Gao and an unsmiling person like An Minghui.
Hao Jian smiled: "Mr. Hu overestimated our girls' appetite. I ate the two steamed buns on the principle of not wasting them."
Lian Ru Ning nodded, although there is another reason that the steamed buns here are different from the usual soft and sweet southern steamed buns, which are a little hard to swallow, but they should be grateful if they have food to eat. Will you be picky
"That's good." After Hu Dan finished speaking, he took another bite of the steamed bun, and sipped the porridge while chewing it slowly.
Shi Gongzhui showed that he was hungry and said, "Sir Hu, can I return my snacks? I'm too hungry."
"It's in your room, let Ashin take you there to get it!"
Shi Gongzhui felt that it was useless to stay here, so he got up and went back. Xin Ting glanced at Hao Jian and Lian Runing, but did not move.
Lian Runing thought about it and asked, "Is there a hot water bath here?"
Hu Dan raised his head and glanced at her, with a smile still on the corner of his mouth: "There is the largest reservoir in Xinghua City, so you don't need to worry about running out of water to take a bath. The shower room is at the end of the second floor, the men's shower room is on the left, and the women's shower room is on the right. There are only two rooms, but because the workers and the escort team members are extremely female, there are only two rooms, it is best to stagger your baths."
Lian Ru Ning also got up and went back to take a bath. Although I took a bath at noon, I did it whole, and after the afternoon session, I also sweated a lot. The only thing to worry about is that she doesn't have a fresh change of clothes until she's done washing the dirty clothes she'd changed at noon.
Xin Ting glanced at her dirty clothes, and quickly got up and followed Lian Runing: "I'll go back and take a shower first."
"Aren't you going back together?" Peng Mao asked Hao Jian.
"They each have a shower room. I can only wait in the room when I go back. There is no fan in the room, and it's too stuffy. I plan to go out for a walk to digest."
After Hu Dan finished his last mouthful of porridge, he wiped his mouth: "Do you want me to show you around?"
"If Chief Hu is free, it's naturally the best."
The two got up, and Peng Mao also got up: "I want to see it too, since I came here, I haven't seen the whole picture of the reservoir!"
Hu Dan didn't object, and Hao Jian didn't make any excuses to dismiss him. The three left the canteen and walked towards the factory behind the dam.
