Chapter 003 Chapter 3 The detection bracelet rang
Even if she could guarantee her own safety, she couldn't just watch them go in knowing they were going to die.
What's more, these people were the original owner's close and trusted teammates.
Although she didn't know why she traveled through time, she used the original owner's body. In order to repay the original owner, she couldn't let these people die.
An Qing knew that no matter what she said, she would not be able to convince them.
After all, it is impossible to believe such a thing unless you have experienced it yourself.
So her plan from the very beginning was to delay time, so she deliberately recalled the scene of the original owner's death to scare herself, and the effect was quite good.
She raised her hand and glanced at the detection bracelet on her wrist.
The detection bracelet is in the style of a watch, and you can also read the time on it. When I arrived at the edge of the jungle, it was 6:20 in the morning, and now it is 6:53.
The original owner and his teammates encountered the strange beast about an hour after entering the dense forest, and the detection bracelet only sounded the alarm ten minutes before.
However, they moved quickly at that time and had already entered the dense forest. Ten minutes was not enough for them to retreat, so they were soon surrounded by the frenzied beasts.
There are still seventeen minutes left before the watch can detect the outbreak of the beast tide. All we have to do is delay these seventeen minutes.
Seeing An Qing's complexion had recovered a lot, Wang Yuan glanced at the time. It was almost seven o'clock. He frowned and said, "It's getting late. Let's get ready to go."
"Xiaoqing, then you should have a good rest and wait for us to come back." Lin Yin rubbed An Qing's head.
An Qing grabbed the hands of Lin Yin and Ping Jingxi beside her with great force.
Ping Jingxi, who was about to get up, stopped suddenly, frowned and said, "Xiaoqing, be obedient."
An Qing bit her lip, took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and thought about how to continue to delay time.
She stared at Wang Yuan and said, "Captain, I promise everything I said is true. Believe me, you really can't go in! I will take full responsibility for this matter."
Lin Yin frowned. She saw An Qing's persistence and didn't know what to say for a moment. She also looked at Wang Yuan.
Wang Yuan looked at An Qing scrutinizingly.
An Qing felt a little uncomfortable being stared at. She also knew that she was very different from the original owner. Coming here from a peaceful world, she was not as tough and strong as the original owner, nor as powerful and courageous as her.
She has tried her best to make her way of speaking similar to the original owner, but after all, she is herself, not the original owner, and there are still some differences.
At this moment, she felt like she was being seen through.
An Qing held Lin Yinping Jingxi's hands tightly, more and more tightly. Even though she felt uneasy when being looked at, she did not let go. Her eyes were firm as she looked at Wang Yuan directly, without moving an inch.
Wang Yuan said with a headache, "Xiaoqing, do you know how important the plant roots we collected are? They are related to the nutrient solution of the entire base. What you just said has no evidence. I can't take you back to the base empty-handed just because of these unreasonable words. Do you understand?"
Shi Zhu also advised, "Xiao Qing, don't make things difficult for the captain."
Jiang Yuan sighed, "Xiao Qing, ever since we became an outbound team, we've been walking on the edge of danger. We could die at any time. Don't you know that?"
When saying this, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but look at An Qing. He felt that she seemed to have suddenly become a little different, just because she said that the dream was not a dream?
An Qing paused, opened her lips, but couldn't speak.
Ping Jingxi gently pressed on the acupoint of An Qing's wrist.
An Qing only felt her arms go numb, and the hand that was holding Ping Jingxi loosened, and Ping Jingxi and Lin Yin broke free from her hand.
Ping Jingxi said, "Okay, take a nap first. When you wake up, wait in the car. We'll be back soon."
The dense forest is most dangerous at night, so no matter what they gain, they will leave the forest before dark.
Lin Yin sighed and gently pinched An Qing's face. "Xiao Qing, don't let your imagination run wild. Our team is experienced and nothing will happen. Just wait for us in the car."
The salaries of the outbound teams are very high, and the basic monthly salary is several times that of other positions. If they are injured during the mission, the base will provide free medical services and subsidies. In addition, the mutant beasts or plant roots brought back to the base will be exchanged for base points and distributed to them.
The salary for a team like theirs is very high and the situation is very dangerous. At the same time, the tasks assigned by the base must be completed and they cannot abandon the tasks without special circumstances.
Therefore, unless the detection bracelet really detects a beast tide outbreak, it is impossible for them to turn back.
When it was seven o'clock, An Qing began to feel a little anxious.
She felt that time was passing too slowly. They had been talking for such a long time, but only seven minutes had passed. Obviously, seven minutes was very short. It had seemed like just a moment before.
There were still ten minutes left, but Wang Yuan and his friends were already ready to go. They had already gotten out of the car and headed towards the dense forest.
Although they were walking, they were very fast and ten minutes was enough for them to cross the outside of the dense forest and enter the inside.
An Qing closed her eyes and her hands trembled. She looked at the dense forest. The fear and terror in her heart made her retreat from the bottom of her heart.
She took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and reached out to grab the equipment in the box.
The original owner was already very familiar with putting on the equipment, and his body seemed to have formed an inertial memory. The moment he grabbed the equipment, he put it on himself neatly, and the buckles clicked and it was all fastened in a few seconds.
After she was fully equipped with guns, knives, daggers, and ammunition, she opened the car door, jumped out, and ran quickly towards Wang Yuan and others.
The parking spot was quite a distance away from the dense forest. An Qing put on her equipment very quickly, so they had not yet entered the dense forest.
Hearing the noise behind them, Wang Yuan and others turned around and looked at An Qing who was already fully equipped and coming over in surprise.
The original owner had very good physical fitness. An Qing felt that this set of equipment, which looked particularly heavy, did not seem to weigh much and did not cause her any burden. When she ran, she was very fast.
She felt that the explosive power of this body when running was probably even faster than the sprint champion in her world.
Shi Zhui opened his mouth in surprise, "Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to rest?"
An Qing stood in front of them, feeling very relaxed. She didn't even feel tired. It felt like running so far was not enough to warm her up.
Although she had the original owner's memories, she couldn't help but subconsciously think that she still had the original physique, so she felt very surprised now, and her expression was a little weird.
Wang Yuan frowned and said, "Stop messing around. Go back. If you feel uncomfortable, just rest. Why are you following me?"
An Qing gritted her teeth and said, "No, you're going to die if you go in there. I can't just watch you die!"
Wang Yuan laughed out of anger, "So you're planning to die with us."
An Qing choked.
Of course not. She didn't want to die. She just thought that coming here could slow down their progress so that when the detection bracelet detected an abnormality, they would have enough time to evacuate the jungle.
She bit her lip, her eyes revealing a stubborn look, "I can't bear to watch you go in and die anyway."
Wang Yuan rubbed his brow with a headache, "Okay, let's go."
As he spoke, he looked at Ping Jingxi and said, "Jingxi, please take better care of Xiaoqing later."
Ping Jingxi nodded: "Okay."
She walked over to An Qing and said helplessly, "Let's go. How are you feeling? Are you feeling unwell anywhere? If you feel unwell, don't force yourself and tell me immediately."
An Qing nodded: "I know Sister Ping, I feel fine now."
Ping Jingxi nodded, and the team set off again.
An Qing glanced at the time inconspicuously. She had been delayed for another three minutes by catching up. She only had seven minutes left to check the bracelet and sound the alarm.
She took a deep breath and looked around, thinking about how to delay it for a while longer.
As she was walking, An Qing suddenly tripped over her left foot and fell forward.
"Ah!!!" An Qing screamed with her eyes closed.
Everyone around was startled by her, and then looked at An Qing in silence.
An Qing stood steadily on the ground. Without feeling the pain of falling, she opened her eyes cautiously and was stunned.
She just tripped herself on purpose, mainly because she knew that her teammates were very skilled and she would definitely fail if she tried to trip them, so she came up with the idea of tripping herself.
As a result, she was now standing firmly on the ground and did not fall at all.
Recalling what just happened.
It seemed that when she tripped herself, she subconsciously closed her eyes and screamed, but her body's instinct was to exert force with her waist, support herself with her hands, flip into the air, and land steadily on the ground.
An Qing: "..."
Ha, this body memory is too good...
Wang Yuan's face looked very ugly as he walked step by step to An Qing.
An Qing suddenly felt a little scared. Anyone with eyes could see that he was angry, but in the original owner's memory, the captain was always very kind and rarely angry. Even when he was leading newcomers, if the newcomers made frequent mistakes and held them back, he would not get angry but would just teach them patiently.
She couldn't help but shrink her head.
Wang Yuan said in a deep voice, "An Yiqing, do you know that you will be punished after returning to the base for your current behavior?"
Deliberately obstructing collection is a serious crime.
"Captain..." Lin Yin hurried over and advised, "Xiaoqing is not in a clear mind today. She didn't mean it."
"Yes, Captain, Xiaoqing has always been very serious and responsible about her missions. This time, I think she really wasn't thinking straight."
Teammates came over to persuade him.
There was once a person in the base who had a disagreement with his teammates and deliberately obstructed their mission during a mission. After returning to the base, the person who was obstructed reported to the security department. After that, the person was taken away and his crime was announced and punished in the square the next day.
After a hundred hits with the barbed whip, no matter how good the person's physical fitness was, the punishment was over, and the person would have lost half of his life. He would have to spend more than a month in the hospital for treatment before he recovered. Not only were his points depleted, but he also owed the hospital a lot of points.
Ping Jingxi and the others knew that if they went back and reported it, An Qing's current behavior would mean that she had deliberately obstructed their mission three or four times, and they didn't have the heart to let An Qing return to the base to be punished.
Wang Yuan looked at An Qing and said, "Now, either you go back to the car and rest, or we go into the jungle together, but don't do anything else."
His face was dark and his expression was fierce, completely different from the captain in the original owner's memory.
An Qing's nose felt sore and her eyes were hot. She had been raised in the palm of her parents' hands since she was a child. Apart from the blind date, her parents loved her in every way. When had she ever been treated so harshly?
The feeling of grievance washed over her, and for a moment, she wanted to turn around and leave in anger, leaving them to death.
Wang Yuan looked at the little girl in front of him with tears rolling down her eyes, and his eyes widened in shock.
Not only him, but others were also scared.
After all, the An Yiqing they knew was a very strong person. No matter how serious the injury was, she would grit her teeth and hold on without shedding a tear.
"You, don't cry." Wang Yuan was a little panicked. "Why are you crying?"
Lin Yin also hurried over to comfort An Qing, "What's wrong, Xiaoqing? Are you feeling unwell again?"
Ping Jingxi hurried over to check her body.
Shi Zhui hesitated and said, "Is it because the captain was too fierce that Xiaoqing cried?"
Wang Yuan looked at Shi Zhui and asked, "Was I very fierce just now?"
Shi Zhu scratched his face and said, "Ah, not really, a little bit, and what I said was a bit harsh."
Even so, he still looked very strange. Under normal circumstances, Xiaoqing would not cry just because of the captain's harsh words, right?
Jiang Yuan next to him squinted his eyes and looked at An Yiqing.
Beep——
Suddenly, several people's bracelets sounded sharp and piercing alarms.
