Chapter 135 The cracks gradually opened
After leaving the lounge.
Li Muhan found that almost everyone was silent. What happened in the past two days made Li Muhan feel the pain of leading a team.
Although he was originally the captain of the seventh team.
But Team 7 was originally a relatively mature team. Whether it was Lin Ziyu, Su Xue, or even the taciturn Yin Qi, they all had a tacit understanding with each other, and they all regarded each other as someone they could trust.
Li Muhan also understood that all this was not his credit, but the result of the deceased Captain Huo Tian.
The current team is different. Chi Yuan and Jin Wu are like sisters, but they don't trust others too much. Hati is not under the supervision of the Huaxia Special Management Bureau, let alone gaining the trust of others. Xia Yue is even more of a lone wolf and can hardly fight in a team.
As for Mengmeng, she was originally a rebellious outcast. Although she was recruited later, she felt that she did not fit in.
This seemingly luxurious galactic battleship is actually in tatters everywhere and in urgent need of repair.
Now the only one who can repair this ship is Li Muhan, who still has a human identity.
So Li Muhan made a decision.
He walked over to the group and said.
"Everyone, I have an idea."
"If we continue like this, we'll definitely become suspicious of each other over various issues, and the cracks in the team will only get bigger and bigger."
"Besides, we have too many people now, and the target is too big. It's easy for us to be wiped out all at once. So I suggest that we split up into groups of two, supporting each other. This way we can better disrupt the enemy's target and support each other when the enemy attacks."
After hearing Li Muhan's words, Chi Yuan and Jin Wu looked at each other and asked with some confusion.
"But we've never been separated before."
"So you never win."
Li Muhan replied with a smile.
Chi Yuan also smiled a little embarrassedly. Indeed, they were always defeated by sudden attacks. When they reacted, Xia Yue was basically the only one who could still fight. But the aliens on the other side were not vegetarians either. They were quickly defeated when Xia Yue suppressed her strength.
Hati had no objection to this either.
Xia Yue remained silent.
Li Muhan glanced at Xia Yue slightly and found that the other party was still emotionally stable, so he spoke to everyone.
"I've made the following assumptions about the groupings. Feel free to raise any opinions."
"First, Chiyuan and Jinwu. You two have the best coordination and excellent mobility. You two will form a team and take charge of the high ground. Try to observe the movements of the entire city."
"Then there's Hati and Mengmeng. Mengmeng's special ability takes time to activate, and Hati's large-scale snowstorm can buy you that time."
"Finally..."
Li Muhan looked at Xia Yue and asked tentatively.
"Xia Yue, can you be in a group with me?"
Xia Yue seemed to be in a daze. After being called by Li Muhan, she trembled and then nodded slowly.
After deciding on the groups, the first ones to leave the convenience store were Chi Yuan and Jin Wu.
"We will choose a high point so that even if an attack is coming, we can notify everyone in advance."
After Chi Yuan finished speaking, he took Jin Wu and walked out of the back door of the convenience store.
"Then we'll leave first."
Hati stood up and hooked his finger at Mengmeng.
Mengmeng was still a little uneasy, but after seeing Li Muhan nodded to her, she also walked to Hati's side.
"Mengmeng has established a mental link between us. If you encounter any danger, please call the others. We are all nearby and can ensure that support will arrive as soon as possible."
Hati smiled and waved at Li Muhan, and glanced at Xia Yue at the same time. When he saw that Xia Yue had no reaction at all and didn't even look up at any of them, Hati could only sigh helplessly and then left the convenience store.
In the end, only Li Muhan and Xia Yue were left in the convenience store.
Neither of them spoke. Li Muhan felt that the distance between him and Xia Yue was getting farther and farther. It was an indescribable feeling. He didn't know what was happening.
But something must be gradually changing in Xia Yue.
"Let's go too."
Li Muhan couldn't help it any longer. He walked up to Xia Yue and spoke to the girl in the gentlest voice possible.
The girl raised her head slightly, her eyes full of fatigue.
Seeing Xia Yue's eyes like this, Li Muhan instantly felt like he was back in the park half a year ago.
In that heavy rain, he also reached out his hand to the girl who was about to be swallowed by the rain. That time, Xia Yue held his hand.
But this time...
"Um."
Xia Yue nodded, but did not touch Li Muhan's hand. She walked straight to the rolling door.
Li Muhan looked down at his hand still hanging in the air and felt a sense of loss, but in the end they walked towards the rolling door together.
After opening the rolling door and leaving the convenience store, Li Muhan took Xia Yue along the route they had planned.
In fact, there is no destination, we just need to keep moving. It is too easy to be attacked if we stay in one place.
"Actually, real aquariums aren't like that. I've never been there, but I've seen them on TV. They're beautiful, and the fish won't stare at you, let alone attack you."
Li Muhan walked in front, and he kept looking for topics to talk about, but the girl following behind him didn't respond at all.
"It's really cold in Beiyuan City."
"Is Taotie also an alien?"
"There was Coke in the convenience store just now. I got you a can. Here you go."
When Li Muhan turned around and handed the Coke to Xia Yue, the girl suddenly raised her hand as if she was stimulated by something and knocked the Coke in Li Muhan's hand to the ground.
"No, don't... come near me."
Xia Yue's voice was trembling, as if she was trying hard to endure. Li Muhan couldn't even tell whether it was because of fear or anger.
"...Um, I just spoke too harshly to you. Sorry."
"...It's okay, but after that, don't come near me, don't touch me."
Hearing Xia Yue's words, Li Muhan also frowned. He also had a temper. Xia Yue was very abnormal, but he didn't think he had done anything wrong.
"Hey, what's going on with you? If you've encountered anything, at least tell me."
Li Muhan took two steps at a time towards Xia Yue. The distance between them was very close. Just when Xia Yue wanted to step back, Li Muhan suddenly grabbed her wrist.
"I, I said! Stay away from me!!"
Xia Yue looked up and looked at Li Muhan. The sharp teeth in his open mouth flashed a cold light, and his blood-red eyes seemed to be filled with irrepressible hunger and murderous intent.
Crackle, clackle——
At the same time, heavy rain began to fall from the sky without any warning.
The two stood facing each other in the rain. Li Muhan's hand was still holding Xia Yue's wrist, but the other party was like a frightened beast, baring her teeth at Li Muhan.
"Xia Yue, you..."
“Get out of here!!”
The girl suddenly shook off Li Muhan's hand with such force that Li Muhan almost fell to the ground.
This time, Li Muhan finally couldn't help it.
