Chapter 93: Rescue on the Desolate Planet 16 [Update 1]

"Research Institute." He Ziqian was not guessing, but gave the answer with certainty.

"To be honest, it's pretty cool." However, no matter how cool it is, it cannot cover up the crimes committed by the people in the institute.

Now, Ruan Xi still has some concerns that he hasn't expressed yet. He is afraid that the people in the research institute will not only study animals and plants, but also humans as research subjects.

"What are you worried about?" Ruan Xi was thinking with his head slightly lowered. He Ziqian suddenly asked this question, which made him a little confused for a moment, and he subconsciously looked up at him.

The more he looked, the more Ruan Xi felt that He Ziqian seemed to see through his worries.

"You really can read minds, right? Do you know what I'm worried about?" Ruan Xi narrowed his eyes and looked at He Ziqian with an unhappy look. However, He Ziqian was not panicked at all. He was even too lazy to refute him. He just smiled at him.

Smile a little, you little head! Are you trying to show off how handsome you are?

Ruan Xi rolled her eyes at He Ziqian in annoyance, turned her head away, and her mind finally returned to the main topic.

They were at the bottom of the sea, at the crucial moment of finding the research institute. How did he end up talking to He Ziqian? He had never been a talkative person in his past life or this life, so why was he unable to find a word to say to He Ziqian?

It's really strange!

Ruan Xi stared intently at the research institute ahead with such doubts in his mind...

"It really is a research institute, right? The shape is so typical!" Although it is hidden very secretly on the seabed, and although it is very stylishly set up with many natural vortex mechanisms, the overall shape of this research institute still gives people a stereotyped feeling. Anyway, Ruan Xi took a look and thought that this should be a research institute. It is exactly the same as the few science fiction movies he had seen in his previous life.

"Well, it seems that attacking is one of the ways to make him reveal his identity." As for other methods, they are no longer useful to them.

He Ziqian issued a new order in the team's communication channel, "Everyone attack, enter the research institute as quickly as possible." If they really want to enter a heavily guarded research institute, combining the power of two mechas may not necessarily lead to success, but if all team members disperse and maximize their personal strength, the result will be unpredictable.

"Yes, Captain!" Everyone answered in unison, even Ruan Xi shouted along unconsciously. After he shouted, he immediately realized that something was wrong. When he wanted to cover his mouth, it was too late. He Ziqian was already looking at him with a slight smile.

Nima smiled again. Shouldn't this man be like an iceberg? Why did he suddenly melt? This is unrealistic...

Ruan Xi roared silently in his heart, but it was a pity that it was useless. In the blink of an eye, the invisible barrier outside the research institute in front had been completely broken. It was really "broken", very violently, so that the nearby whirlpools and undercurrents disappeared, and the nearby sea area became clear. Ruan Xi thought the scenery on the seabed was quite nice.

Of course, they are not here for tourism, so no matter how beautiful it is, they can only ignore it.

Ruan Xi was still a little stunned when suddenly, Chi Lin was taken away, and he was completely defenseless and enveloped by the sea water...

Damn, I was so panicked! I was so panicked that I immediately started to doggy paddle, wanting to get closer to He Ziqian, the swimming expert.

Then, after doggy paddling for a full five minutes, he was still spinning in the same place. Not to mention getting close to He Ziqian who was floating motionlessly in the same place, he could hardly even tell the direction. Just when he thought he was about to suffocate to death, Xiaoshu's helpless voice finally rang in his mind.

"Xiaoxi, do you want to suffocate yourself to death?"

Xiaoshu's voice stirred Ruan Xi's previous memories. He immediately said to Xiaoshu in his mind with joy, "Ah, Xiaoshu, are you helping me again? How long can you hold out this time?"

Xiaoshu: "..." With this IQ, can he really become the strongest doctor and pharmacist? I always feel a little empty!

"Xiao Xi, when you came out of the mecha and put on your waterproof suits, didn't you notice there was a cover on your head?" Xiao Shu was speechless. What happened to his master? It seemed that his IQ was really declining! Of course, this did not include his medical IQ, of which Xiao Shu was very sure.

"..." Ruan Xi said that he didn't notice it at all!

After being reminded by Xiaoshu, Ruan Xi finally raised his hand and touched his head. Well, there was indeed a layer in between, and he could breathe freely.

Oh my god, he made a fool of himself again? This is simply a curse that makes you unlucky when you touch water. How can it get better?

"Have you completed your journey? Is your breathing smooth? If you feel any discomfort, please tell me immediately. This waterproof jacket is not only a piece of clothing, but also a machine. I can repair it.

"Okay, thank you." Ruan Xi pondered for a few seconds and nodded without any pretense. However, in his heart, he silently complained about He Ziqian's mind reading ability.

The two of them didn't delay for long and soon met up with the others. Everyone had obviously seen what had just happened, and as soon as Ruan Xi approached, they immediately surrounded him to express their concern.

Ruan Xi: “…” It’s so embarrassing!

"Alright, alright, stop surrounding me and go do what you need to do!" These guys must have done it on purpose, as the expressions on their faces were clearly ones of mockery and ridicule.

Don't let him get the chance, or I'll stab them all with needles!

Everyone felt a chill on their backs at the same time and subconsciously looked back, but of course they could see nothing except Ruan Xi who was staring at them faintly.

"Divine doctor, if I see anything good later, I will bring it to you. Just wait for me!" Guo Wenkai was the first to react. He threw out such a sentence with obvious flattering meaning. Without waiting for Ruan Xi to respond, he immediately ran away... Well, he swam away.

It swam very fast, just like the sharks in the ocean documentaries Ruan Xi had seen in his previous life, with a threatening dorsal fin. Ruan Xi was both envious and jealous, and wished he could be as wild as him.

Unfortunately, he couldn't swim, so he could only follow He Ziqian obediently, letting him hold his hand and swim forward.

"Do you have any special feelings?" At this time, the rest of the team members had already entered the research institute one after another. No one knew where they found so many nooks and crannies. Anyway, this did not match the sci-fi style of the research institute.

"Go to the left?" When Ruan Xi heard He Ziqian ask this question, a sudden idea flashed in his mind.

But the problem is, when this flash of inspiration came to him, he was not thinking about this matter at all. He was wondering whether there were any experiments on humans, whether there were any successful experimental subjects, and so on. Anyway, he thought a lot.

Ruan Xi didn't want anything to go wrong at this time, so he honestly told He Ziqian what he had just thought. Unexpectedly, he decided to go to the left immediately.

"We are here to save people." Apart from animals and plants, the only experimental subjects left are humans. If this is true, they should have gone to the place where the experiments were conducted.

"...That makes a lot of sense. There's no need to refute it. Let's go to the left." Ruan Xi took the lead and walked forward. He Ziqian followed quickly and grabbed Ruan Xi's hand in time. He held it tightly and didn't let go.

Ruan Xi: “…” First her iceberg nature was distorted, then she always loved to smile slightly, and now she has a new habit of holding his hand.

What exactly is wrong?

Ruan Xi continued to walk forward while thinking. He Ziqian didn't insist on walking in front, but he was on full alert. The way they held hands allowed He Ziqian to pull the person back into his arms and protect them at the moment of danger.

Absolutely perfect!

"Wait, did you hear any sound?" Ruan Xi suddenly stopped and pricked up his ears to listen hard to make sure if he was hallucinating. Why did he seem to hear the sound of a cat's meow?

"What's that sound?" He Ziqian also stopped and listened carefully, but heard nothing.

"Can't you hear it? That's not right. I feel that the cat's meow is quite loud, but it has a bit of childishness..." and a bit of murderous intent. Ruan Xi felt that there was no need to say this. After saying this, he continued to look for it.

Ruan Xi, who is a bit of a furry fan, said that he could not resist the temptation of furry children at all. If this was really a cat calling, he would definitely find the cat. He did not forget that this was a research institute, and he did not know how many dark things happened every day.

Then, they found a kitten curled up into a ball in a small cage in a small room. However, the kitten's fur had leopard-like stripes and its ears were round. It didn't look like a cat at all, but more like a leopard cub.

"Little kitten!" Ruan Xi's eyes lit up and he pounced on it immediately. He stretched out his hand very carefully and gently stroked the kitten's smooth and clean fur. He did not arouse the kitten's hostility, but instead received a fluffy rub.

Ruan Xi was very satisfied!

"So cute!" Ruan Xi hugged the kitten in her arms with emotion, but after a closer look she realized that it was not a kitten at all.

"Check to make sure it's an experimental subject. If you like it, you can take it out to raise." As long as this kitten is not an experimental subject.

"What if it's an experimental subject? Are you going to take it back for further research?" Ruan Xi frowned slightly, but she didn't think that He Ziqian would be such a person.

"If it is an experimental subject, it will be lurking with many dangers. Perhaps, it will turn into a monster like a sea monster. Perhaps, it will not live long." Ruan Xi said all the possibilities he could think of, and after hearing this, Ruan Xi immediately fell silent.

"Let me check it first." Before he finished speaking, Ruan Xi had already placed the kitten on a platform and began to examine it carefully.

This inspection yielded a surprise.

"The kitten is not an experimental subject. Its body has not been harmed in any way. It looks like this naturally!" It is so cute. The little kitten squatting in his palm looks so well-behaved.

"Well, if you want, take him with you."

It’s just a cat, He Ziqian said, he doesn’t care at all.
