Chapter 37
Under the night sky, Wen Xin held the blue ball in his arms and stroked its fur.
The blue ball lay on the young man's chest, almost softened into a pool of water, and a gurgling sound kept coming from its throat.
It mimics a cat and has the same long tail as Heituanzi and the others, but it doesn't wave it much.
Only when I am very happy will I clap my hands up and down to express my mood.
Wen Xin certainly knew this habitual little move of its.
But he saw that the blue ball's tail was almost leaving a shadow, but its claws holding on to him didn't relax at all, and he couldn't help feeling a little strange.
When they first met, Blue Tuanzi hugged him for 10 hours, which made him think that she was a very clingy person, but she was not.
Most of the time, Lantuan likes to soak in the basin and bask in the sun lazily.
Occasionally, the little girl would climb out of the basin and come to him in the kitchen or living room, grumbling a few times and asking for favors.
There is no requirement for him to touch for how long, just seven or nine times, and when Blue Balloon feels comfortable, he will run away on his own.
It was as if what it wanted was not the touch, but the reassurance that he was still there, so that it could feel at ease.
Wen Xin then flicked Lan Tuanzi's chin.
This is the second time Tuanzi has been so clingy to me since she came home. Is there something wrong?
His hands suddenly froze.
The blue dumplings noticed the young man's silence almost at the same time.
It grunted, put its paws on both of his shoulders, raised half of its body, and looked at him.
Wen Xin saw reluctance in those big, watery eyes, but no sadness.
Under the moonlight, it even glowed slightly.
He seemed to be infected by such a look, and the suffocating pain in his heart caused by separation miraculously dissipated a lot.
Wen Xin said softly, "You are sure that we can meet again, right?"
Lan Tuan nodded, stretched his neck, and licked the young man's forehead tenderly.
For Tuanzi, his favorite thing is actually to bask in the sun next to his partner.
If it had to choose between staying with Wen Xin and basking in the sun, it would probably choose the former.
Therefore, whenever young people have to get up early and go out for work, Blue Balloon will feel very reluctant to let them go.
Not only did she have to watch the young man disappear at the doorstep, she also had to run back to the balcony and look down eagerly.
It will only slowly retract its sight when the young man walks out of the garden, the community, and the main road, and his figure is completely blocked by the tall buildings.
That kind of waiting must be very difficult to endure.
Just like when it was in the base, struggling to endure the one-year deadline with its friends.
But Lan Tuan rarely remembers that unbearable feeling.
It remembered the sound of the key opening the door, and the young man opened the door with large and small bags in his hands, all of which were delicious food brought back for them.
The hallway was pitch black, making the lights in the house seem bright.
The bright light shone on the young man's smiling face, like thousands of streams of light streaking across the sky, and the world became bright and dazzling.
At that moment, the cat waiting at home forgot all its sadness and only remembered the joy.
The blue ball tilted its head and rubbed it back and forth on Wen Xin's cheek.
"Gulp gulp."
Wen Xin, parting is a sad thing, but don't be too sad about it, because I will find you, just like I found you the first time, and I will find you the second time too.
"Gu."
Then, you may be as surprised as I am.
.
The blue group left.
Before leaving, it pulled at itself for a long time, but in the end only pulled off a small ball of blue fluff.
Thinking of how the little fox pulled out a bunch of hair when it left, Blue Ball felt a little shocked.
So Wen Xin, who had just been comforted by the blue ball, turned around and comforted it with a helpless look.
When Lan Tuan was a little less withdrawn, Wen Xin took out his suitcase.
"Is there anything you want?"
The dumplings don't need to eat. The only food they can really get energy from is mutants. They ate before just to satisfy their hunger.
For example, the green ball can even swallow plastic bags and tables.
Previously, Wen Xin tried to get the dumplings to bring some food with them, but they were very resistant, so he had to give up forcing them.
Blue Tuanzi wants to take the clothes.
In order to save space for food, Wen Xin only took a few sets of clothes with him when he left.
The flour ball in front tore off one piece, and the green ball took away two pieces. If it takes another piece, the other party will have nothing to wear.
Lantuanzi spent a long time in the suitcase choosing in confusion. Finally, she fixed her eyes on Wen Xin's hair and blinked.
Wen Xin: “…”
Blue Dumpling had plucked all the hair on his body for him, so it seemed a little unreasonable for him to worry about whether he was bald or not at this time.
But Tuanzi didn't let him shave himself.
It raised its chin, motioning the young man to lower his head, then raised its paw and gently scratched off a small tuft of hair.
It's a very small amount, and you can't see it even if you look closely.
It's just easy to lose.
Wen Xin simply asked Xu Qiang for a sterile bottle and put Lan Tuanzi's hair in it.
He also put in some little stars that he had folded out of candy wrappers. When all the stars were added together, the bottle didn't look so empty after all.
Seeing that Lantuanzi had difficulty holding things without hands, Wen Xin took out a thin rope, tied the bottle around Tuanzi's neck, and kept adjusting the tightness and length of the rope.
When the other dumplings left, they did not tell Wen Xin where they would go in the end. Wen Xin guessed that the dumplings themselves were not quite sure.
But he still couldn't help asking, "Where are you going after this? Can you tell me?"
Without hesitation, the blue ball pointed to the sea and said, "Gu."
Without a map or a navigation system, it was difficult to tell where the blue group was pointing. However, Wen Xin looked at the direction for a long time and took careful note of it in his mind.
The man and the group finally said goodbye at the intersection. Both of them were reluctant to leave, but both of them were calm.
Wen Xin rubbed Lan Tuan's head and said, "Take good care of yourself."
The blue group responded: "Gu."
It turned and ran into the night, then stopped at the blue whale's command when it turned a corner.
A shimmering blue light slowly emerged from the blue ball's surface, gradually condensing into an elf-like whale.
Thanks to the buildings blocking his view, Wen Xin couldn't see anything. The blue whale bent slightly in his direction to express his gratitude.
If Wen Xin had not existed, his successor might have lost the will to live and died early from the brutal torture in the base.
It hates humans, but is grateful for the kindness.
So when Blue Ball wanted to find Wen Xin, Blue Whale did not try to stop him. For the sake of safety, he attached his mental power to the other party.
During the communication with the black group just now, the blue whale told the other party that it actually did not plan to live for too long.
Humans are disrespecting nature, desecrating the ocean, and trying to manipulate living creatures.
Even back at the base, the blue whales hated this.
It is ready to give up the possibility of evolving into a complete form. After the baby walrus has the ability to protect itself, it will suppress all its strength into one point, triggering a 100-meter tsunami and engulfing human cities.
While telling the black group about this plan, the blue whale also sneered.
Human beings came from the ocean, but have forgotten their roots. They will eventually be buried in the ocean because of such negligence. What a beautiful ending.
The black group remained noncommittal.
It simply asked: "Can the tsunami you created submerge the base?"
The blue whale choked instantly.
Of course not.
The base is too far from the sea, unless it can create a tsunami of tens of millions of meters and submerge the entire blue planet.
But if it had that kind of power, why would it bother creating a tsunami?
It is easier and faster to just attack the base and kill all the researchers.
The black group was completely unaware of its embarrassment and continued to cheer: "So the tsunami could not kill our hated enemies, nor the culprits who brought us pain, but it could kill many people like Wen Xin who knew nothing."
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
The blue whale was silent for a long time, and finally, heaved a sigh of tiredness.
In its eyes, all humans are the same. As a mutant, why would it care about the life or death of humans?
The tsunami at the seaside may not kill the culprit of the mainland, but it can spread the news and let all human beings see how shocking and awe-inspiring nature's anger can be.
Isn't this a warning and revenge?
But before the blue whale was ready to do so, Wen Xin appeared.
Its mental power is attached to the blue ball, almost synchronized with the other party's senses.
During this time together, Blue Tuanzi conveyed to the blue whale the caress, care, and tenderness that he felt from Wen Xin.
This made it, which originally hated humans, have a slightly different view of them.
Even if it cannot completely change the blue whale's view of humans, it is enough to make its hatred-filled brain sober up a little.
It is thinking seriously.
Are you willing to risk your own death in exchange for the life of an innocent person?
Fortunately, the black group noticed the blue whale's movement.
It directly helps the other party solve this difficult decision.
"If you're going to start a tsunami, I'm going to stop you."
The blue whale was stunned for a moment, suspecting that he was hallucinating.
The black group seemed to know what it was thinking. It wagged its tail and said slowly, "If we want to stop you, we just need to disperse your power before it gathers."
It raised its eyelids and said, "Believe me, even if I am in a weak state and my strength is less than one-third of what it was before, it is still easy for me to do this."
Blue Whale: “…”
It couldn't believe it: "But why did you stop me? Do you have sympathy for those humans?"
"Life and death are determined by fate," Heituan said, "but we can't make Wen Xin sad."
The blue whale shouted angrily: "I can't drown him!"
Heituan hummed: "But Wen Xin will still be sad, so no."
The blue whale looked at the black ball's unquestionable expression, and for a moment he felt like thousands of dirty words were spinning in his head, almost about to come out of his mouth.
Thinking that it was a well-mannered whale after all, I tried hard to swallow back all the dirty words.
only.
The black group threatened to stop it, but the blue whale was not entirely angry.
There are still some things that it can't let go of, such as the baby walrus that it just found.
Maybe in the future the little walrus will be able to become its successor and lead the entire sea tribe, but if you think about it carefully, the other party is just a cub after all.
I don’t know how much it would take for a cub to secure that position.
Now that it doesn't have to die in a hurry, maybe we don't have to be so anxious to push the burden onto the baby walrus.
Or maybe, it can teach the little walrus like a real elder.
It was as if a heavy rock pressing on his heart suddenly broke, and the blue whale couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It looked at the black ball's calm and leisurely appearance, and suddenly thought of a question that had puzzled it for a long time.
"If you have such spare power, why didn't you attack the base when you were out of control?"
Higher-level mutants are more aggressive.
The S-class were like ferocious beasts in a cage ready to pounce. As long as there was any chance for them to break free from the cage, they would bite the guard's throat before escaping.
The blue whale almost couldn't control himself at that time.
If it hadn't been for the wounded little walrus beside it, it would have definitely destroyed most of the base before leaving.
It didn't believe that No. 1 didn't have the intention of retaliating on the spot.
However, the Black Group said: "It's not that I don't want to kill them, it's that I can't."
Blue Whale was suspicious.
How could he not be killed if he could smash the alloy wall of the No. 1 Company base with just one claw?
The black ball recalled the dangerous scenes at that time, with murderous intent in his eyes, as if the explosions and screams were surrounding his ears again.
It said in a cold voice: "They have something in their hands that can completely restrain mutants. Number 7 fell to the ground when he rushed over, and he almost died."
The memories end here.
The blue whale's mind was full of thoughts, but he didn't show them. He turned to the little walrus and said, "It's time to go, kid."
.
On the other side, Wen Xin put away the blue ball's fur properly and suddenly heard a sound.
Are there zombies approaching?
He instantly became alert, held his breath, gripped the gun at his waist, and slowly approached the source of the sound.
Until a big fluffy purple tail entered Wen Xin's sight, causing him to stop and frown slightly.
The purple squirrel was busy cleaning up the scene when he suddenly heard a strange question from behind.
"Azi?"
It froze.
