Chapter 28 Xiao Chi's Hidden Illness
When Xiao Chi wasn't smiling, with his unusually tall stature, he could envelop Pei Zhiyi just by standing in front of her.
It clearly looked like he was trying to comfort her, but the way he said it made it seem like there was something else behind it.
Pei Zhiyi stretched out his hand and grabbed her hand with his big palm.
Xiao Chi's hands were very big, and when he held Pei Zhiyi's hand, only half of her fingertips were exposed.
His strength was no different from his previous semi-conscious state, but after seeing her frown, he relaxed slightly.
Sure enough, when he used his mental power to explore, he saw that the spiritual sea that had been sorted out before had become irritable again. The mental power that was ready to move was obviously not being used, but it was twisting spontaneously.
"Xiao Chi. Your mental power." Pei Zhiyi started talking. She recalled all the details from before, such as the rumors about Xiao Chi's bad temper, how he would close his eyes and fall asleep as soon as they met, and the mental power that was extremely powerful.
Xiao Chi said: "It's an old problem."
Every few generations, a child with strong mental power will appear in a family, and along with the strong mental power comes pervasive irritability. The child will become as irritable as if he has used mental power without having to use it specifically.
This influence can even extend from mental strength to the body as a price for strength.
Therefore, Xiao Chi must undergo regular physical examinations and mental relaxation.
But he found that even the Omega hired by the family with a high salary was still far inferior to Pei Zhiyi.
At least, he had a rare good night's sleep that night when she soothed his mental strength.
There are no annoying and distorted dreams, nor are there noisy sounds. It's as if everything has returned to calm, allowing the mind to calm down and empty.
Feeling that the annoyance had subsided, Xiao Chi let go of Pei Zhiyi's hand.
But in this moment, her skin turned slightly red.
Spoiled.
Xiao Chi thought casually.
He didn't use much effort at all.
Xiao Chi stepped onto the cave entrance with his long legs, and with his hands on the stone wall, he said to Gu Enling and Pei Zhiyi, "Didn't you say you wanted to go? Let's go."
The rising sun shone on his face. He curled his lips, his eyes were wanton, and his attitude was nonchalant.
It was as if this cave was just a simple thing to him.
Gu Enling crossed her arms and complained as she walked towards them: "Brother Xiao Chi, you are really too much."
"If she wants to go, we'll go? Why didn't you agree to let me go when I wanted to go?"
Xiao Chi took the shielding device that Pei Zhiyi had given her yesterday and placed it in an inconspicuous corner of the cave without even turning his head. "The minority obeys the majority."
"You're the only one who talks too much."
Gu Enling curled her lips, damn it, the minority obeys the majority.
Pei Zhiyi felt that Xiao Chi completely overturned her previous view of him. She thought he was as calm and steady as Shi Min and Lu Yanxu.
But from his expression just now, she saw the pride in his confidence in his own abilities.
"You're in the middle," Xiao Chi arranged. "I'll be in the front, Gu Enling, you'll be in the back."
"Don't rely too much on mental power." He reminded Gu Enling.
Now that a jammer has been released, it's normal for some weird things to appear inside.
Gu Enling was rarely excited. He had thought that he would just stay where he was and wait for Shi Min and the others today, but he didn't expect that Xiao Chi would agree to take the risk.
After sending a notice to the group about what they were planning to do, the three of them maintained their formation and marched towards the dark cave.
Pei Zhiyi had used his mental power to sense it last night, and there was nothing at least a few dozen meters ahead.
But she couldn't say these words. She was obedient and let Xiao Chi lead the way, with her and Gu Enling following behind.
It took more than ten minutes to walk a distance of dozens of meters in the dark, and soon they arrived at the fork in the road that Pei Zhiyi had discovered last night.
There are several small green lights every few meters on the stone wall. There are two forks in the road, and it is impossible to tell which one is the correct one.
In the silence, Pei Zhiyi heard Gu Enling say, "Left."
"The left side feels better to me."
Pei Zhiyi saw Xiao Chi choose the corridor on the left without hesitation.
This feeling of absolute trust is very subtle.
At least Pei Zhiyi couldn't trust them that much.
After walking more than ten meters, the three people finally saw a metal gate carved out of the cave, covered in silver.
However, the door was not as tightly closed as they had imagined. Instead, it was open with a space wide enough for half a person to enter.
Looking through the gap, one can vaguely see the messy workbench inside.
It's like a camp outside, as if it has been abandoned.
Xiao Chi only said two words: "Wait."
He immediately approached the door quietly, and his arms touched various parts of the door, and finally found the control panel in the lower right corner.
Pei Zhiyi didn't even know how he controlled it so accurately, but he saw that the door, which seemed to be broken, suddenly flashed, and then the gap that was originally only partially opened suddenly opened, revealing the whole picture inside.
I had just peeked through the gap and saw that there was no one inside.
There's even a mess everywhere.
There were a lot of syringes scattered on the ground here that Pei Zhiyi had picked up before. Some of them were scattered on the ground, and some were stacked in a box.
There are other tools that I don’t know how to use.
This is more like a storage room, with everything in it, but you can see that some places are empty, as if they have been moved away entirely.
"No one." Xiao Chi looked around and turned to Gu Enling and Pei Zhiyi and said, "Come in."
Only after eliminating the basic danger did Xiao Chi let the two come over.
Pei Zhiyi looked at this place built underground that looked more like a laboratory with a little curiosity. She had only seen this kind of scene in interstellar science fiction movies on Earth.
The three of them were searching for any clues.
However, it is obvious that although so many things were left behind, the most core things were not left behind.
Gu Enling wiped the dust off the workbench. "It shouldn't have been abandoned for long. It looks like the dust has been there for more than half a month."
You can tell from the feel of the dust, it’s a thin layer, so this place must have been abandoned not long ago.
"It's been a long time since our school held a joint exam here, right?"
The Federal Military Academy has several locations for joint examinations, with different terrains and living environments. The school randomly selects the locations every year.
And this place has been chosen seven or eight years ago.
Judging from the dust, it looks like they moved out just this month.
Could it be that he left in a hurry because he heard that this place was going to be selected as an examination venue?
Xiao Chi glanced at the things about the exotic beasts on the ground: "They are using the exotic beasts for research."
But for research, it shouldn't be so covert, nor should this location be used. A shielding device that costs almost the same as the mecha was thrown at the entrance of the cave.
Without sufficient profit, no one will do something that loses money.
