I Want to Retire!!! [Interstellar Infrastructure]

In the Space-Time Bureau, General Sheng Xia, who should have retired honorably, was unfortunately exiled after she impulsively "slandered" her superior before her departure.

Waking up...

Chapter 73 Who is it?

Chapter 73 Who is it?

"Who are you?"

A sound like a gun being loaded could be heard from behind the resurrected corpse. Just as Shengxia was about to look over, she suddenly heard Xiaoai's system click and the notification "Time and space chaos corrected." Then, a sharp pain surged through Shengxia's brain, and she uncontrollably fell back into the chaotic darkness.

"Xia... Shengxia, if your name is Shengxia, why not name me Chongming?"

"Why?"

"Because in the middle of summer, you can hear the sound of insects chirping."

Shengxia frowned and woke up from her dream. She saw that she was surrounded by the medical team brought by Fu Qianshen. Outside the stretcher were many members of the exploration team, excavation team and security team.

Seeing Shengxia regain consciousness, Fu Qianshen and the others immediately came up to report the current situation to Shengxia. First, the rumored discovery of a large mineral vein by the Stanley Group merchants was indeed true. This vast, karst-like area was actually composed of the most valuable black gold ore in the star field.

"Where's that guy?" Sheng Xia suddenly thought of the guy who just pretended to be dead.

Fu Qianshen was stunned for a moment, saying frankly that he had never expected such a tenacious creature to survive so deep underground. It was simply that due to the long period of lack of light, various bodily functions had developed problems, both large and small. Furthermore, a doctor on the medical team was curious about his physical condition, so he was receiving treatment in the nearby "ice room."

midsummer:……

They were humans, not fish or microorganisms. They didn't find it strange that they could survive in such a strange place. They were even trying to rescue the guy who had faked his death...

Could it be that the problem is caused by the space-time room?

Shengxia called Xiaoai out, and strangely, Xiaoai also said that it was forced to restart due to the recent space-time chaos. Fortunately, there were no problems with the data and system.

"Has anyone from the Space-Time Bureau been detected?"

"The space-time channel is currently closed. Perhaps it was closed due to a strong energy collision caused by the chaos of space-time. Do we need to try to re-establish the corresponding communication channel?"

Shengxia: ... "Can it be rebuilt?"

Xiao Ai made a mechanical clicking sound and said that reconstruction requires time and corresponding energy. At present, due to insufficient computing power, it is not recommended to prioritize the use of computing power for the reconstruction of the space-time channel.

So, can we just let this go for now? Shengxia thought as she stood up and headed towards the treatment room where the man who had just resurrected was. It was quite strange to say that the walls were all a subtle old gold due to the black gold stone, except for the "ice room" that the man who had resurrected pointed to, which was gleaming with silver light.

"Scan these silver lights." Shengxia just told Xiaoai this, and Xiaoai said frankly that the traces of the Space-Time Bureau left in this area were the most obvious.

So this person... accidentally fell into the gap in time and space and was forced to stay here?

Shengxia pushed open the door of the ice room and found the "corpse" sitting quietly on an ice bed. He tilted his head slightly, looking at something, but his muscular body, which was not hidden even by his clothes, and his cold yet charming face made the medical staff around him subconsciously want to stay here for a while.

"Commander!" After seeing Shengxia come in, the medical staff handed over the man's physical data. Aside from being relatively weak and with obvious muscle loss, he was almost identical to a normal person. Even his age was measured to be younger.

At the same time that Shengxia was looking at him, his deep dark brown eyes also looked back at him. For some reason, Shengxia suddenly felt a slight tremor of electricity running through his body. He just stared at Shengxia in silence.

"name?"

Finally, Shengxia walked in front of him, but he just lowered his head slightly and looked like he was playing with his long hair without saying a word.

midsummer:……

"Um, Commander, he's probably lost his ability to socialize due to being trapped in this place for so long. He can only listen to us and occasionally respond... To be more specific, he's no different from a two or three-year-old child."

Two or three years old? He? ...If he stood up, he would probably be taller than her. Such a strong man... Shengxia scratched her head speechlessly, and then asked about the current exploration of this area.

Just as Shengxia was about to leave and follow the exploration team to check the situation outside, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Shengxia's arm.

Shengxia was startled, and felt that this guy's body was terribly cold, but when she shook his hand back, she could feel that he actually had a pulse.

Suddenly, this guy pulled Shengxia again, so that Shengxia was caught off guard and met his dark brown eyes again. Strange, this pair of eyes seemed to have been seen before?

"He seems to have something to say." Suddenly, the medical staff who had been observing the situation here said this. Shengxia pulled herself out of her thoughts and looked at him. Coincidentally, he nodded slightly at this time.

midsummer:……

The "corpse" suddenly stood up and held Shengxia's hand tightly. Shengxia was startled and the medical staff explained that this might be a child's reaction when he saw someone who could make him feel safe.

"So you're saying that I became his mother?"

Before he could finish his words, the big ice block behind him frowned inexplicably, and at the same time, he took out a small black gold stone from somewhere and threw it accurately at the medical staff who was about to say "yes".

The medical staff thought it was a sign of dissatisfaction from the child, but Shengxia noticed his ability to throw objects accurately, which was neat and tidy, like a technique only a soldier could use.

After half-pulling and half-leading Shengxia out, Fu Qianshen came over to report the current situation of each team. This huge area like a karst cave is basically composed of black gold mines, stretching for thousands of kilometers. It is basically a huge profit.

But there was a problem. Due to the shaking of the mountain, they were completely unable to locate their current location and could not contact the outside world. At the same time, the exploration and excavation team that had already gone ahead had not yet found a way out.

"If I can't get out successfully, won't I end up trapped and dying in here like the nameless treasure thief who was buried?"

"Not only that, the cause of the previous mountain shaking has not yet been determined."

"How long have we been falling?" Shengxia felt that it must have been at least a day or two, but Fu Qianshen, after looking at the laptop in his hand, assured her that it had only been fifteen minutes.

"How long?" "Fifteen minutes... er, to be more precise, fifteen minutes and thirty-six seconds."

Shengxia: ???

Suddenly, the big ice cube that had been holding Shengxia's hand tugged at her sleeve. When Shengxia turned around to look at him, she saw that his face was turned to one side while his other hand was pointing in that direction as if to show the way.

Shengxia was silent for a few seconds, and the big ice block did not move. When the two sides were in a stalemate, the medical staff who came out explained his behavior, saying that he might think it would be better to go this way.

"That's ridiculous. We can't really listen to him just because he... ahem, has outstanding looks."

While everyone was arguing, Shengxia could feel that Big Ice Cube was playing with her hair. She looked back and felt that his eyes were not as innocent as a young child's, but rather full of aggression.

"Scan first, and find the roads we can find now." Just when Shengxia turned around and didn't want to accept the big ice cube's advice, the whole mountain shook again without any warning.

When the shaking stopped, Big Ice Cube tugged at Shengxia's sleeve again. This time, his eyes were filled with determination, as if he would not give up unless Shengxia went with him.

After thinking about it, Shengxia gathered all the people who had fallen down, and followed the big ice block by letting out lines and holding hands.

Before everyone had walked for long, a beam of light suddenly appeared before their eyes. Fu Qianshen was very surprised. He ran towards the direction of the light and found that this was indeed the exit. Moreover, this exit was connected to the abandoned mine tunnel in the old mining area of ​​Stanley Group.

Wait, thinking of this, Fu Qianshen couldn't help but look back at the big ice block who was leading the way but remained silent.

Can't he get out by himself?

The same question lingered in Shengxia's mind, but when she looked at the person next to her with doubt, she saw a slight smile on his cold yet somewhat evil face.

After noticing Shengxia's gaze, he suddenly reached out and gently wiped Shengxia's face. Then, under everyone's gaze, he silently moved to the exit and took a deep breath into the cold air.

A beam of sunlight happened to hit his chest. For some reason, looking at his long hair blown by the wind and his strange blood-red lips, Shengxia subconsciously got goosebumps.

"Who are you?"

When Shengxia took a step forward and was about to say something, the big block of ice in front of him suddenly closed his eyes and fell down. The people around him were so shocked that they subconsciously stepped forward to catch him and looked at Shengxia at the same time.

From a distance, Fu Qianshen heard someone calling his name again. When he looked in the direction of the voice, he found that it was Mo Siming who came to rescue.

"Commander, it's Mo Siming."

While they were talking, Mo Siming and his men had already rushed to Shengxia and the others in two steps, his voice still hinting at a sob that was about to collapse: "Fortunately, you are all okay!"

God knows how devastated he was after the mountain shook twice and he still couldn't contact Shengxia and the others. He almost kowtowed to the Ghost Mountain out of superstition.

Fortunately, Shengxia and the others came out on their own. Not only did they come out, but they also brought someone extra with them?

Mo Siming looked towards the man lying on the ground next to Shengxia, who was wearing rescue clothes. However, after seeing the man's face clearly, he froze in his place as if struck by lightning.

"You...you guys, how did you find him?!!!"

"So, who is he?"
