Chapter 43 "You seem to like this mole very much."
Early in the morning, Lin Mian opened his eyes at the slight movement outside the car. The man beside him did not get up either. He turned sideways towards him, his hand on his waist, and seemed to be still sleeping with his eyes closed.
But Lin Mian knew that he must have woken up long ago. With his vigilant personality, it was impossible for him to sleep so soundly in the presence of outsiders.
The curtains were drawn before going to bed yesterday, so he couldn't see the sky outside. He raised his hand to rub his eyes and prepared to get up.
As soon as he moved, the hand on his waist held him down, and the man's deep voice rang in his ears, "Don't move."
As he spoke, he moved a little closer, and Lin Mian was enveloped by his breath, and his earlobe was rubbed by his lips.
It reminded him of some memories from last night. His ears flushed and he lowered his voice and said, "Brother Ji, it's time to get up..."
Jiang Jie still didn't open his eyes, but patted his lower back twice. "You were so tired last night, and you're refreshed so quickly?"
Lin Mian was patted by him, and it seemed as if he felt the soreness in his waist and the feeling of having nowhere to put his strength. He quickly said, "No, it's just that someone outside can't sleep."
"Oh, then..."
Lin Mian raised his hand to cover his lips and glanced sideways at the outside of the car, "Brother Jie, stop talking, someone will hear you..."
Jiang Jie opened his eyes, with a smile in his eyes. He did not pull away his hand that was covering his body, but nodded cooperatively.
Lin Mian breathed a sigh of relief and slowly withdrew his hand.
Who knew that the next second, she was kissed by the man who suddenly turned over and pressed her down. She only had time to let out a short, muffled groan, "Mmm..."
Outside the car, Li Liang turned his head and glanced at the RV not far away. There seemed to be some noise coming from inside just now. Did they wake up?
Zhang Mo, who had contacted his companions again, came over and sat down on the rock next to him. He said, "They're sending a car from the nearest official safe zone. If nothing goes wrong, they'll definitely be here before noon."
After what happened yesterday, he felt that helicopters might not be absolutely safe. Cars were better because at least people were on the ground and could deal with any emergencies.
"That's good," Li Liang sighed, "I hope everything goes well from now on."
He turned his head to look at the tent next to him. Dr. Wu was still resting. He was just an ordinary person. He had been nervous all day long and had almost lost his life several times. He was very tired.
Maybe it was because I saw the man's ability yesterday, so I felt more secure and slept quite well last night.
Li Liang looked back at the RV again, then put his hand to his lips and said in a low voice, "Captain, do you think we can take the man back?"
Zhang Mo, who was just taking out a dagger to wipe it, looked up at him and said, "Don't try to get yourself killed."
"No," Li Liang waved his hand and explained, "What I meant is, can we persuade them to return to the safe zone with us? He's so powerful, it would be a shame not to recruit him into our special ability team."
Zhang Mo's heart moved slightly, and his hand that was wiping the knife slowed down. To be honest, he had this idea before, but he felt it was difficult to realize.
The man's personality was one of uninhibited and self-centeredness, and he most likely wouldn't want to go to the official safety zone to be controlled.
A person with this kind of temper, even if he really wants to form a team, will only form a safe zone for himself and become the one who controls others.
"If he could join our team, I might be able to secretly learn from him." Li Liang didn't know what his captain was thinking, and was still daydreaming. "We both have water-based abilities. Will I be able to become as amazing as him in the future?"
His voice became louder with excitement. Zhang Mo hushed him and turned to look at the RV.
The car door was just opened at this moment, and Jiang Jie walked down. He looked at them from a not-too-far distance, his gaze pausing on Li Liang.
Li Liang felt uneasy when he saw this, and wondered if he had heard what he had just said.
"Good morning, Mr. Jiang." Zhang Mo stood up and greeted him.
Jiang Jie was in a good mood because he had just bullied the little rabbit. He nodded at him and then looked in a certain direction.
Zhang Mo was just wondering what he was looking at when his eyes suddenly became serious and he also looked over there. At the same time, he turned the dagger in his hand and held it in reverse.
Li Liang beside him also stood up, no longer as lively as before, with a serious expression.
Seeing their vigilant expressions, Jiang Jie yawned and put his hands in his pockets. "Don't be too nervous. It's just an ordinary mutant. You can handle it yourself."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the car.
Zhang Mo said with a sideways look, "I'll deal with it. You keep an eye on Dr. Wu."
"Captain, why don't we go together? Just in case that mutant..."
"Just protect Dr. Wu," Zhang Mo put his hand on his shoulder. "If it really is that kind of mutant, even if both of us go there, we won't be able to withstand it."
After saying this, he glanced at the location of the RV. Staying near this person would be safer. He turned back and said, "This is an order."
"Yes, Captain, be careful." Li Liang stood at attention and saluted, watching him leave.
Lin Mian came out after washing up and was already preparing breakfast. When she saw Jiang Jie getting in the car, she pursed her still bright red lips, still feeling scared of the feeling of almost suffocating just now.
He turned his eyes away, feeling that the other party was becoming more and more fond of bullying others.
Seeing him avoid his gaze, Jiang Yan walked up to him with malicious intent, bent down and got close to him, "Are you angry?"
He raised his hand and touched the small wound on his lower lip. "I'm not even angry yet."
Just now he pushed the rabbit into a corner and bit himself. It really hurt.
The wound on the other person's mouth seemed to be a confession of his crime. Without the emotion he had at that time, Lin Mian began to feel embarrassed and whispered, "Does it hurt?"
Jiang Jie stood up straight and looked down at him, "What do you think?"
Lin Mian was silent for two seconds, "I'll apply the medicine on you..."
As soon as he turned around, Jiang Yan grabbed his wrist and pulled him back, lowering his head to whisper in his ear, "If you take the initiative to kiss me, it will be considered as compensation."
This guy is really... Lin Mian pursed his lips, looked up at him, and the other person raised his eyebrows.
She curled her fingers, but still moved forward and kissed the wound she had bitten. She moved away a little and gently kissed the mole under her lip.
Someone grabbed his waist and he couldn't move away.
Jiang Yan looked at him with interest, rubbing his thumb against the corner of his lips, "Little rabbit, I noticed that you seem to like this mole very much."
This was not the first time. This introverted little thing would raise his chin and kiss this mole many times when he was aroused. His kiss was gentle, like a feather, which tickled Jiang Jie's heart and made him more and more unable to stop.
Lin Mian pursed his lips, said nothing, and did not refute.
He felt a little ashamed of having his feelings touched.
He didn't dare to say it, but the mole under the man's lip made him feel... very lustful, especially at certain times, when it was always flashing before his eyes...
Jiang Jie narrowed his eyes and leaned closer, "Little rabbit, why is your face so red?"
Lin Mian couldn't help but lean back, "Brother Ji is too close, it's a bit hot..."
His tone was full of guilt.
Jiang Jie pinched his cheek, "Lin Xiaotu, you're getting bolder now. Have you learned to lie to me?"
Lin Mian wanted to retort that he had not, but he lacked the confidence. In his panic, his face turned even redder.
Finally, she gave up and leaned into his arms, buried her head in the crook of his neck, and said in a muffled voice: "Brother Ji, stop bullying me..."
Although the words were clearly a plea for mercy, the tone was so soft that it sounded like a spoiled child. Jiang Yan felt as if something had hit his heart. He chuckled softly and raised his hand to rub the back of the little rabbit's neck. "Okay, I won't bully you."
Lin Mian raised his head, revealing half of his face to look at him. When he met the man's downcast gaze, he blinked, pushed the man's chest and walked out of his arms. This time he was not embraced back, which meant he was really let go.
He breathed a sigh of relief, "Brother Sae, go wash up. I'll prepare breakfast first."
For the sake of "safety", it is better to get people away from you first.
Jiang Jie didn't expose his little thoughts and turned around to go to the bathroom.
The mutant creature lurking nearby was indeed not difficult to deal with. While Lin Mian was making breakfast, the sound of fighting coming from afar stopped.
Not long after, Zhang Mo's figure appeared in the field of vision. There was a wound on his lower jaw, which was not serious. He must have been caught accidentally.
Dr. Wu was already up in the tent. He had just eaten the compressed biscuits Li Liang had given him and was drinking some water. When he saw him come back, he said, "Captain Zhang, are you okay?"
Zhang Mo waved his hand and sat down next to them. He took the water from Li Liang and drank two sips. "It is indeed an ordinary mutant. It's not a big problem."
Li Liang took out another compressed biscuit from his bag and gave it to him. He glanced at the RV and lowered his voice before saying, "Captain, how did Jiang Jie determine that it was just an ordinary Altered Item without even touching it?"
As for the enhanced versions of the alien creatures they encountered twice, there was no difference in appearance. Only after fighting could we judge whether their abilities and intelligence had evolved to a certain extent.
But the other party just heard the noise from a distance like them before. How could he judge the strength of the mutant so confidently?
This person is becoming increasingly difficult to understand.
It was impossible to say that Zhang Mo was not curious about this, but he also knew that they should not explore things that were not their business. Their current mission was to protect Dr. Wu and bring him safely to the safe zone in City B.
He opened the compressed biscuit, stuffed a piece into his hand, and said, "Put away your curiosity."
After being scolded by him, Li Liang shut his mouth and ate the biscuits obediently.
Dr. Wu smiled at his frustration and changed the subject, "Yesterday I asked Captain Zhang to take a biopsy of the Altered Specie for me. I'll intensify my research after we return to the safe zone to see if the virus inside it is any different from that of ordinary Altered Species."
If their strengths are different and the viruses they carry are also different, then their research may become more difficult.
Moreover, he always felt that these alien creatures might become stronger and stronger, and there might be more powerful ones appearing in the future, so they had to be prepared.
"Doctor Wu," Zhang Mo said, just in time to ask him something, "Previous research has shown that the brain crystals of ordinary mutants can replenish the supernatural energy in our bodies. Absorbing more can also enhance our supernatural powers to a certain extent, but there are limits. So, will the crystals from yesterday be more effective?"
"It's very likely," Dr. Wu nodded. "I even think it will significantly evolve your abilities."
Zhang Mo's heart moved slightly. Jiang Jie took the crystal yesterday probably because he knew the role of these stones for them, the psychics.
He was not surprised by this. Although the official confirmation was made after research, it did not mean that others would not discover it accidentally.
He was just wondering, since the other party's abilities were so strong, had he ever absorbed a stronger crystal and evolved?
Otherwise, it's really hard to explain.
In his heart, he actually hoped that this judgment was true, because it meant that their special abilities would have more possibilities.
