Qiao Xi and his companions were taken to a hall where several people were talking about something.
The superior sat on the other side of the long table in the hall, exuding the pressure of a superior.
It was as if he was clearly stating that he was the boss here.
Qiao Xi looked at the man and inexplicably felt familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.
"Report! Base Commander, we have captured 6 strangers!"
Josh looked at the so-called base commander.
The base commander was probably in his 50s, with a square appearance and a very righteous look.
But Josh couldn't seem to like this guy.
The base commander looked them up and down, and after a while he spoke: "Where are you from?"
Josh: “We are patients coming out of the hospital.”
"patient?!"
When the people around heard her say this, they stepped back in fear and covered their mouths and noses, as if they were afraid of being infected with the disease.
Qiao Xi looked at everyone and said, "We don't carry any germs, don't worry."
The base commander finally relaxed and looked at the few people: "In that case, let's settle them down first."
Josh and his companions were taken downstairs and settled in an underground room.
They said they were settling down, but I've never seen six people settled in one room. It's almost like they were detaining them.
Patrolmen passed by from time to time.
Whenever I see the six of them, I can't help but whisper.
"Everyone is in a state of panic right now, and suddenly six strangers show up. Could they be spies?"
"No way? They are human beings."
"So what if they are human? Aren't there enough people who are spies and slaves for cats now?"
“That’s right.”
"Why did the base commander let people in like this? This is so scary! What if they have the virus?"
Yuze looked at Qiao Xi: "What are we going to do now? Little tactician."
Josh: "Let's look at the situation. We still don't know what happened on the human side. The base commander has my monitor on him. I can eavesdrop on everything they say."
Her spider silk can silently sneak onto people and act as her eyes and ears.

Inside the meeting room.
The base commander looked at the picture seriously and said, "The situation is getting worse and worse, and more and more people are being infected."
The person next to him couldn't help but hesitate and said, "Then we shouldn't take in those six people. What if they are carrying the virus? Then our last piece of pure land will be contaminated."
The base commander glanced at him and said, "They have been wandering around the city for so long. Have you seen anyone infected around them?"
The person next to him subconsciously retorted: "Maybe it's far away."
The base commander asked again, "What about the patrolmen who escorted them here? They followed them all the way here, aren't they okay?"
The person next to him couldn't find any words to refute, so he just kept silent.
The base commander looked at everyone seriously and said, "Didn't that crazy director of the hospital say that all the viruses will be released in three days? Let's save as many people as possible. As long as we unite, we will be able to defeat that devil!"
Josh probably understood, looked at his teammates, and conveyed what he heard.
Yu Ze frowned slightly: "In other words, if I let the dean release the virus, all humans will die, and our main mission will fail."
Qiao Xi nodded. "If we want to promote harmonious coexistence between humans and cats, we must first understand what happened between them. We have collected almost all the clues from the dean. We need to gain the trust of humans as soon as possible so that we can investigate the clues."
Several people nodded.
To Josh's surprise, everything went much more smoothly than they had imagined.
Several people agreed to say that they escaped from the hospital and were determined to overthrow the hospital director's reign of terror. The base commander actually let them join the defense team without saying a word.
Meeting room.
Qiao Xi, Yu Ze and others sat at the conference table.
The base commander had a kind smile on his face: "Okay, you don't have to be so alert. I let you in so easily because I really want to ask for your help with something."
Josh looked slightly relieved.
If you have something to ask for, it's best to say it openly.
So that they wouldn’t be suddenly ambushed by someone.
The base commander lowered his eyes, then raised them again after a moment, with a smile on his face: "In fact, I can see that everyone here should have good abilities and strong fighting power. They are not ordinary people."
He looked at Codename 7: "Especially this one, he looks very powerful."
Code 7 looked at him expressionlessly, without blinking.
The base commander was inexplicably frightened by this look and didn't even dare to move away.
Qiao Xi's mouth twitched slightly, and he leaned over: "I'm praising you."
"Oh." Codename 7 withdrew his gaze and continued to play the role of a quiet statue.
The base commander wiped the cold sweat from his head and looked at the few people: "Actually, it's because the hospital director will release all the viruses and test subjects carrying the virus from the hospital in three days. This virus can cover the entire city within a day."
He looked worried, and almost pleadingly, as he looked at these people: "So, I want to ask for your help in destroying the underground laboratory cabin in the hospital and destroying those viruses."
[Ding! Trigger the main mission (II) "Destroy the hospital's experimental cabin." ]
When they heard the system prompt sound, they looked at each other tacitly.
"Of course we can, but we have a request." Josh looked at the base commander.
The base commander had a lenient look on his face: "You go ahead."
Qiao Xi glanced at Yu Ze and said to the base commander, "We need to know what happened between humans and cats. Why does the dean want to eliminate humans so cruelly?"
The base commander's hands behind his back clenched slightly, his face tense: "This..."
Yuze yawned lazily: "If you don't know anything, I won't take this job. It sounds dangerous."
Jiang Can looked at the captain and said, "If you don't answer, then I won't answer either."
Rob blinked. "You guys aren't going to answer? Then I won't answer either."
“This…” The base commander was a little embarrassed and looked at Qiao Xi for help.
Josh spread his hands and said, "Look, this is the situation."
Since you are here to ask for help, of course you must be prepared to ask for help.
The two sides were deadlocked for a moment, and the base commander sighed as if he had compromised. "In fact, we don't know the whole story very well. We only know that one day, cats in the city suddenly broke into people's homes like crazy. They had strange high-tech equipment in their hands. We were no match for them at all."
He seemed to have thought of something horrifying, and his face was shaking with fear. "After that night, all the cats in the city disappeared. The old commander of our base also died tragically, his whole body was bitten to pieces by cats. A virus began to spread among humans, and only that hospital could treat this...disease."
