If Xiao Yi wanted to make someone disappear silently and leave no trace of them afterwards, he could still do it.
Yu Wei held Xiao Yi back. It wasn't that she was being chaste, but rather that he was just trying to take advantage of her, not kill her directly. Clearly, he didn't think so, and his words became increasingly harsh: "What is this? This is 'The frozen corpses on the road, while the rich feast and feast.' This is 'The merchant woman knows nothing of the sorrow of her country's demise, yet still sings the song of the back garden across the river.'"
At this moment, Xiao Yi took out two bundles of noodles from his pocket and shook them in front of the woman. When the woman saw the fresh, white noodles, her saliva began to secrete instantly. She could even imagine the feeling of the noodles bursting with wheat aroma in her mouth. In this period of extreme food scarcity, any kind of food seemed particularly precious. At this moment, Xiao Yi took out two bundles of noodles from his pocket and shook them in front of the woman. When the woman saw the fresh, white noodles, her saliva began to secrete instantly. She imagined the feeling of the noodles bursting with wheat aroma in her mouth, and her heart was filled with desire and expectation.
Xiao Yi looked at the woman's eager expression and said with a smile: "This is fresh noodles, just exchanged from the exchange office, it smells very good."
After hearing this, the woman couldn't help drooling. She could even imagine the soft and tender texture of the noodles after they were cooked.
Xiao Yi looked at the woman's expression and knew that she wanted to eat the noodles very much. So, he pretended to be generous and handed the woman a bundle of noodles and said, "Take it. Cook a bowl of hot noodles with some vegetables and eggs. It will definitely taste great."
Just as the woman was about to take the noodles, words of gratitude began to burst out like laser guns: "Thank you, you are so kind!"
But the next second, Xiao Yi put the noodles back into his pocket and said provocatively, "Oh, you intellectuals are taking advantage of others and not reciting poems? Why give it to you? Are you good-looking? What's wrong? Are you so disgusted with the relatives who are helped by the Finance Bureau? If you have the ability, go ask him for it. What's the matter with bullying the two of us?"
Having said that, Xiao Yi directly pulled Yu Wei away from the spot, leaving the woman alone there, thinking about what Xiao Yi said.
The two hurried back upstairs, and as soon as they closed the door, Yu Wei burst into giggles. Xiao Yi saw this and quickly joked, "What's up? You drank some chicken soup and learned to cluck like a hen?" Yu Wei's eyes curved with laughter, as if she had discovered some great secret. She walked forward, put her arms around Xiao Yi's neck, and said, "The trouble is spreading. This time, the shortage of supplies at the base can't be related to you, right?"
Xiao Yi took the man in his arms and said nonsense without blushing or beating his heart: "I don't know, isn't the shortage of supplies a problem of your research institute? You haven't kept up with the research either."
Yu Wei rolled her eyes at Xiao Yi, went to the bedroom to change into her home clothes, and no longer paid attention to Xiao Yi, the big liar who always liked to talk nonsense.
Since Old Man Yu likes to cook, Yu Wei doesn't need to come downstairs to bring him food every day. In the afternoon, Xiao Yi suddenly had a whim and wanted to eat pancakes. Fortunately, he had a ready-made pancake in his space. It was very crispy just out of the pan. So, he rolled a scallion and began to coax Yu Wei to try the magical combination of scallion and pancake.
Yu Wei was a little hesitant at first about Xiao Yi's suggestion because she had never tasted the magic of scallions and pancakes. But Xiao Yi kept persuading her to try it, so Yu Wei had to try it and found that the pancake was really delicious, crispy and delicious. If it weren't for the scallion, it would be so spicy that she kept drinking water.
Time always passes quickly when you are filled with happiness and joy in life.
The Supernatural Research Institute seemed to have been put on hold recently. People like Yu Wei and Fan Zun naturally returned to their own houses to take care of other things. The rest of them, who lived in the Institute of Natural Sciences, all lived a life of staying at home.
At night, the weather outside was getting colder. Xiao Yi and Yu Wei were just about to go to bed when they received a message from Fan Zun.
There were only two short words on it: "Begin." Yu Wei got up, pulled open a corner of the heavy curtains, and looked at the situation outside. Xiao Yi chose to live here at the time not only because it was a dormitory of the research institute and had good security. But most importantly, from here, you can see the situation in most of the base.
By this time, the base had truly begun to fall apart. Violence and conflict were everywhere. Those diligent and dedicated personnel who had previously performed their duties were no longer to be seen. In their place were the inaction of the superiors and the suffering of the ordinary people.
Eventually, they couldn't take it anymore. After working so hard all day, they couldn't even buy a bite to eat. How could they not be angry? Tired, hungry, and angry, someone finally took the first step and robbed the supply exchange supermarket.
Immediately, people began to respond. Suddenly, the base was filled with panicked sounds.
Yu Wei couldn't help but feel a little worried, but Xiao Yi patted her shoulder and comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, go back to sleep, I'm here, nothing will happen to me."
Yu Wei didn't return to the bedroom. Instead, she leaned on the sofa, covered with a blanket. A dim light beside her cast two shadows. One long, one short.
At this moment, Xiao Yi was staring closely at someone not far away. Fan Zun's message proved that the other party had also started to take action.
This was precisely what infuriated Xiao Yi the most. They had actually started a riot just to maintain their power. A supply supermarket? With so many checkpoints, how could an ordinary person with nothing possibly get in? So, in Xiao Yi's opinion, this scene wasn't very clever.
