Chapter 80, Blockade
She replaced her sister and became his fiancée?
Qi Yuan took the handkerchief he offered her and wiped away her tears, struggling: "Dad said that my sister and I have a good relationship, why am I..."
"It's precisely because you have a good relationship that you replaced her." Chu Yuan touched the tip of his nose, helplessly, "Originally, the candidates for the marriage between the Chu family and the Qi family were me and your sister, but your sister didn't want to marry me."
"Ah." Qi Yuan exclaimed softly, "Why?"
"Why?" Chu Yuan scowled as he spoke of the time he was fooled by the two sisters. "We just don't see eye to eye, so why should there be so many whys?"
"Could it be..." Qi Yuan covered his mouth and muttered softly, "My sister doesn't like you, right?"
Chu Yuan curled his lips into a smile and said softly, "Qi Yuan, I didn't hear what you said clearly."
Qi Yuan hurriedly shook his head: "I didn't say anything! What I said just now was just your illusion! I definitely didn't mean to laugh at you!"
"Chu Yuan." Recalling this small fragment piqued her curiosity about the past. "Can you tell me about our past?"
"Okay." Chu Yuan agreed, but moved her to the bed. Under her puzzled gaze, he tapped the dial of his watch with his fingers, "Time is running out - I'll tell you when I get back from my mission."
Qi Yuan bit his lip and asked tentatively: "Where are we going on this mission?"
"Jiangning."
"Jiangning?" Jiangning and Fengyang are adjacent.
Qi Yuan raised his hand weakly, "Can I, can I go with you?"
Chu Yuan refused mercilessly: "It's too dangerous, no."
Qi Yuan grabbed his sleeve, shook it slightly, and begged: "Chu Yuan, please take me with you... Please."
Chu Yuan: "No."
She placed a kiss on his cheek: "Chu Yuan, take me with you. I want to go home and find something, something very important, please."
Chu Yuan: "..."
…
When he arrived at the meeting place, Qi Yuan, dragging his small suitcase, saw from afar two familiar faces standing next to the convoy ready to go.
She opened her eyes wide in surprise: That's not...
"Seventh Brother? Miss Ranran?" Chu Yuan was even more surprised than her. He blurted out to the two of them, "What... are you doing?"
Jiang Ran first waved hello to Qi Yuan, then looked at Chu Yuan and replied, "Captain Chu, aren't you going to Jiangning? It just so happens that my home is in Jiangning."
Chu Yuan was surprised: "Your home? Professor Jiang's hometown?"
"Yeah." Jiang Ran held the key in her pocket tightly: Jiangning, Jiang Yize's hometown, is also where Jiang Ranran lived as a child.
The memory of Jiang Ranran in her mind was still incomplete, but she had a hunch that something very important was waiting for her in that place.
After getting Jiang Ran's answer, Chu Yuan looked at Si Xu: "Seventh Brother, are you coming together?"
Si Xu pursed his lips, looking very depressed: "I have a special situation here, and I can't get away for three days. Jiang Ran will need you to take care of her for the time being."
Chu Yuan was flattered by his request: "Of course I should, of course I should, Seventh Brother is too polite."
Hearing the sigh in Si Xu's tone, Jiang Ran pulled him aside and kissed him on the cheek: "When you are done, if I am not back yet, you can come find me."
Si Xu hummed softly: "That will have to wait three days."
"That can't be helped. Captain Chu's mission seems to be more urgent."
When Si Xu mentioned the mission, he showed a thoughtful expression: "Jiang Ran, when we get to Jiangning, I will have Chu Yuan arrange for someone to take you to the Jiang family. You wait for me at the Jiang family. Don't go to the blockade area - it's very dangerous there."
It was rare to see him so cautious. Jiang Ran was puzzled: "What is the blockade used to block? Zombies?"
Si Xu was silent for a moment, then replied, "It's used to block a person."
A person? This... the original novel didn't mention it at all. Jiang Ran tried hard to recall, and finally remembered a clue.
In the original work, after Si Xu died, Jiang Ranran committed suicide, Shen Yang disappeared after burying his sister, and Shen Lang was old and had to hand over the base to Xie Chengzhi.
At that time, Shen Lang seemed to have mentioned that Shen Yang went to the blockade area to release something, and asked Xie Chengzhi and Luo Rui to be careful.
It’s just a casual mention in the original work. I think the author was planning to write a second part, but gave up because the data was too bad?
So, the whole novel she read at that time was not finished at all?
Si Xu said that the blockade was not to prevent zombies, but to block people...
"Si Xu, is that person very powerful?"
"Very impressive." Si Xu said solemnly, "More powerful than many of the psychics in this base." After a pause, he added, "Of course, not as powerful as me."
After saying that, he looked at Jiang Ran and narrowed his eyes.
Already familiar with his little expression, Jiang Ran immediately responded to his words: "Yeah, you are the best."
Si Xu raised the corner of his mouth and touched the top of her head: "Although he is not as strong as me, he is about the same as Chu Yuan, so you have to be careful."
Chu Yuan is the captain of the first brigade of the base's supernatural team. His current supernatural level announced to the public is less than level six.
The higher the level of superpowers, the harder it is to break through. From the information she has learned in the past two days, no superpowers have yet appeared in the four major bases to break through to the sixth level, and even fourth-level superpowers are rare treasures.
That person's ability level is similar to Chu Yuan's, and he is indeed very powerful, but...
"Do we need to set up a blockade area to guard against a supernatural power that is less than level six?"
As far as she knew, Xiling Base had placed all members of the Fourth Brigade of the Ability Team in the blockade area. Now that no news had been received, they immediately sent people from the First Brigade there.
Being so cautious, just to guard against a fifth-level mutant?
The little girl is really smart and alert.
Si Xu was very satisfied with her reaction and patiently explained, "That person's ability was somewhat special. He escaped from the base and reached Jiangning. The base then established a blockade in Jiangning."
"What is his special ability?"
Si Xu shook his head: "It's not confirmed yet - I don't have any extra information."
The Shen family is responsible for hunting down that person, but the information they provide is very one-sided.
He now even had some suspicion that the Shen family deliberately kept him outside.
"What is certain is that the ability he awakened should be a spiritual one."
"Is that so?" Jiang Ran said, "I understand. I will be careful."
Feeling that the little girl's answer was a bit perfunctory, Si Xu tapped her forehead with his finger: "Remember, wait for me to come find you at the Jiang family."
"I know." Jiang Ran muttered, "Your serious expression reminds me of parents sending their naughty children to school."
Hearing this, Si Xu leaned over and kissed her cheek gently: "Baby, be good, okay?"
What did he call her? Did she hear it wrong? He...he was flirting with her again!
The girl covered her flushed cheeks and staggered back to the team like a drunk before she realized what was happening.
She said he was like a parent sending a naughty child to school, and he then called her baby... Si Xu was not flirting with her, he was taking advantage of her, bastard!
Jiang Ran: "Si Xu, you look like a parent sending a naughty child to school."
Si Xu: "Baby, call daddy."
Jiang Ran: “…”
Stroke it
The captain of the first team of the base's superpower team is Chu Yuan; the captain of the second team is Shen Yang, and the deputy captain is Shen Bai; the captain of the third team is Gu Yunqing, and the deputy captain is Song Rong; the fourth team is in the blockade area; the captain of the fifth team was previously Pei Wan'er, and now it is Su Qin; the sixth team is Wei Yage.
At this point, all six special power teams of the base came out.
