Chapter 128 The atmosphere is abnormal
The Beiyuan City Aquarium is not a landmark building, but it is new. It is a smart aquarium that was only approved for construction two years ago.
The marine life on display is also varied, but people's curiosity is limited.
You'll get tired of it after watching it once.
Therefore, the current operating conditions of the Beiyuan City Aquarium can only be described as average.
But even in the most depressed times, such a deserted scene should be rare.
Walking in the passage surrounded by aquariums, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The truce will be over in an hour, and when I came here, I confirmed that I was not being followed. I have to say that Sun Yan seems to have his own unique method of anti-tracking. After all, he is a champion, and he definitely cannot do it without some skills.
Li Muhan felt that his ability seemed to be going astray.
"Are you still angry?"
Li Muhan walked quickly to Xia Yue's side, but Xia Yue just turned her head away and didn't look at him or speak.
Li Muhan didn't know whether it was because of Hati and his actions just now that annoyed her, or because he had offended her in some way before, but this time Xia Yue's mood seemed different from the previous awkwardness.
She seemed to be forcibly suppressing a certain anger in her heart, but Li Muhan was not sure whether this anger came from herself.
Several people walked through the passage and, guided by the aquarium's sign, came to a staff lounge.
"We still have about half an hour left. Everyone, whether you need to heal or do something else, please hurry up. We can't hide here forever. We have to move."
Sun Yan said.
Several people nodded. Although Hati was still a little depressed, she finally did not refuse Chi Yuan's treatment.
Chi Yuan's flame has the power to purify wounds. She took Hati to the staff lounge. After seeing Hati take off his sweater, Chi Yuan was stunned.
The girl's originally fair back now had a long knife wound carved on it, and there was a faint blue flame burning the wound, preventing it from healing.
“That’s too much…”
Chi Yuan carefully stroked Hati's back with her hand.
"Keep it a secret for me."
Hati turned his back to Chiyuan and said lightly.
"This wound...will not heal in a short time. The White Tiger's Blue Flame is more powerful than mine. I can only help you suppress it as much as possible to alleviate your pain."
"Yes, thank you."
With Chi Yuan's help, the pale blue flame that was still burning slightly on the wound on Hati's back gradually began to weaken, but it did not go out. Instead, it became inactive.
"You must avoid a confrontation with Baihu as much as possible. He can reignite these blue flames at any time."
Finally, Chi Yuan applied some ointment on Hati's back.
"This ointment tastes strange. Did you make it yourself?"
Hati changed the subject and asked Chiyuan with a smile.
"Yes, this is a recipe a human taught me a long time ago. Although he was human, he was very proficient in pharmacology. Although this ointment cannot heal your wound, it can help you suppress the pain."
"Humans."
Hati smiled faintly, then put on his clothes, stood up and walked out of the locker room.
"Miss Hattie."
Chi Yuan called out to Hati.
"Although I don't know what fighting means to you, I hope you can value your life more. You just said that Northern warriors only die in battle, not escape... I don't quite agree. Escape is for the continuation of the flame, for..."
"Alright, little bird."
Hati tilted his head slightly, looked at Chi Yuan with a smile, and then made a silencing gesture with his hand.
"Thank you for the treatment, but please don't judge other people's beliefs."
"...Okay, I understand."
......
At the same time, Xia Yue was walking alone in the dark blue corridor of the aquarium, and Li Muhan followed her silently.
Just now in the lounge, Xia Yue was very irritable. Finally, as if she couldn't bear it anymore, she got up and walked out.
Sun Yan wanted to ask her where she was going, but Xia Yue glared at him fiercely.
"Go take a walk."
Then she left the lounge alone.
Of course, Li Muhan was worried about Xia Yue leaving on her own, so he followed her out.
Now the two of them were walking in the passage, one in front and one behind. Although the marine life around them was very spectacular and beautiful, Xia Yue acted as if she didn't see it and just kept walking forward.
Finally, Li Muhan couldn't bear it anymore.
He walked quickly to Xia Yue and grabbed her wrist.
The girl suddenly turned around, and stared at Li Muchan with a pair of scarlet eyes full of murderous intent. This gaze made Li Muchan feel cold sweat on his back instantly. This was a feeling he had never experienced from Xia Yue.
“…”
But Xia Yue seemed to understand what she had just done in an instant.
Her eyes slowly returned to their original color, and then she shook off Li Muhan's hand, turned around and said.
“…Stay away from me…”
"Is it because of what happened to Hati just now? I can explain it to you. It's not what you think. I..."
"no."
Xia Yue had her back to Li Muhan, and her voice sounded unfamiliar to Li Muhan.
"I know what kind of person that stupid wolf is."
"That's because of what...is it because I used vinegar cloves on you?"
When Xia Yue heard the word "vinegar clove", her face turned red, as if she recalled what happened in the twin realm.
"No, no, don't talk about that, I, I, I don't remember it anymore!"
"At that time... I had no choice... If I hadn't done that, you would have..."
"I've already said it, stop talking, stop talking!"
Xia Yue turned around, grabbed Li Muhan's collar and pulled him to her side.
Li Muchan was forced to bend down slightly. At this time, their faces were very close, and Li Muchan could see his own reflection in the girl's clear eyes.
"...You look really good in a maid outfit."
"You, you still...! Ugh?!"
Li Muhan leaned forward and kissed Xia Yue.
At this moment, Xia Yue seemed to return to her normal self. Her expression softened, and her body slowly moved closer to Li Muhan.
【...Shallia.】
But it was only for this moment.
A familiar call suddenly sounded in the girl's mind. She pushed Li Muchan away suddenly, and because she used too much force, she pushed Li Muchan to the ground.
"I'm sorry, I, am I..."
Li Muhan quickly apologized, but Xia Yue lowered her head, her long bangs covering her eyes.
"...Don't, don't come near me, Li Muhan, I... don't want to now."
"Okay… sorry."
The atmosphere became a little awkward at this time. Li Muhan slowly stood up from the ground. The two of them did not continue to move forward, but just stood there.
To ease the embarrassment, Li Muhan smiled and pointed to the aquarium next to him.
"Haha, hahaha, there are so many fish here."
“…Because it’s an aquarium.”
"Oh! That's right! An aquarium must be full of fish! Haha...hahaha."
But during this awkward conversation, Li Muhan vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
"Xia Yue."
"......What's wrong."
Li Muhan walked to the aquarium and looked carefully at the fish swimming in the water.
Then he asked tentatively.
"...There are lots of fish in the aquarium, right?"
"Yeah, what do you want to say?"
"...But aren't we in the copied Beiyuan City now? Can these fish be copied in as well?"
Li Muhan’s words made Xia Yue open her eyes wide suddenly.
"No, the boundary decree will exclude all life except for the Special Management Bureau personnel and aliens! Here... There should be no other life in this city now!"
It was as if I heard the conversation between the two.
The fish that were originally swimming suddenly stopped moving.
Then slowly...
All the fish looked at the two of them with their dull eyes.
