"Ruoruo, it's like this. Han Xiao and the others are from Kyoto. They will cooperate with us on missions in the future, so they want to get to know you..." Qi Jiang explained to Chen Ruoruo while looking at her.
"I have to go on a mission too?" Chen Ruoruo looked at Qi Jiang and asked, pointing her white finger at herself. She subconsciously complained in her heart. If she had known earlier, she would not have followed him out. Sure enough, she could not escape the fate of being a slave.
"Well, with your strength, you will be a great help to us..." Zhou Zhiguo looked into Chen Ruoruo's eyes, nodded and said seriously.
"What do you mean..." Chen Ruoruo pursed her lips as she looked at Zhou Zhiguo
"Um, Ruoruo, the news of your fight today has spread all over the base..." Qi Jiang
"Oh..." Chen Ruoruo turned her head to look at Qi Jiang and touched her nose guiltily. She didn't think so much at the time. She just wanted to end the battle quickly. She wanted to use this opportunity to test the strength of these people, but she didn't expect these people to be so vulnerable.
"Then... do you want to see that person?" Zhou Zhiguo asked Chen Ruoruo.
"Yeah..." Chen Ruoruo nodded, her gaze once again falling on something not far away.
"Then I'll let them in later..." Zhou Zhiguo followed Chen Ruoruo's line of sight and saw Li Xue picking up snail noodles from the pot, and then said
"No need..." After hearing Zhou Zhiguo's words, Chen Ruoruo turned her head to look at him and Qi Jiang, and immediately refused.
"But..." Zhou Zhiguo wanted to say something.
"Enough to eat..." Chen Ruoruo turned her head and looked at him with sparkling black eyes.
Seeing this, Zhou Zhiguo realized that there was no point in saying more, so he stood up and walked outside to bring the person in.
At this moment, Han Xiao and his group, who were waiting outside the door, were not idle. They were whispering to each other, and curiosity was on everyone's face.
Not long after, a gentle breeze blew by, bringing a slight coolness. There seemed to be a faint smell mixed in the wind.
At first, the smell was so faint that it was barely perceptible. But gradually, it grew stronger and stronger. Everyone sniffed curiously, trying to discern the scent in the air.
"What's that smell? Why does it smell like shit..."
"Hmm, could it be that the cesspool exploded?"
"You don't know what's good, just your stinky nose. This is the smell of snail noodles, it's very fragrant..."
"Hmm, it really looks like that..."
"I haven't smelled this in a long time, it smells so good..."
"The smell is coming from inside. Could it be that someone inside is cooking snail noodles?"
"How is this possible?"
"That's right, that's right..."
Each team member could not contain their inner curiosity and excitement. They stood on tiptoe and leaned forward, trying to see what was behind the guards' blockade and what the people inside were doing.
Their eyes sparkled with excitement, as if they had discovered a new world. Everyone's face was filled with anticipation and eagerness, and they couldn't wait to go in and explore.
Han Xiao also sniffed, trying hard to distinguish the smell in the air. He frowned when he heard the conversation between his teammates. Although he felt that all this was unbelievable, Han Xiao still forced himself to suppress his inner doubts and curiosity and waited quietly.
Soon he saw a man walking slowly towards them not far ahead. As the distance got closer, he finally saw the man's face clearly. It was Zhou Zhiguo.
"Captain Zhou, how is it? Is she willing to see us?" Han Xiao asked quickly, feeling a little uneasy.
"Well, come with me in..." Zhou Zhiguo nodded slightly and spoke calmly to Han Xiao and the group of people behind him.
"Okay..." Hearing this, Han Xiao felt relieved. He nodded in agreement and hurriedly followed. Behind him, a group of people followed suit and silently followed Han Xiao.
"Hmm..." Zhou Zhiguo responded softly, then stepped forward and acted as a guide.
"Captain Zhou, can you smell anything in the air?" As they walked, Han Xiao finally couldn't suppress his inner curiosity and asked Zhou Zhiguo in a low voice.
When he asked this question, the team members behind him immediately fell silent, held their breath, pricked up their ears, and waited for Zhou Zhiguo's answer.
"Yes, Miss Chen and the others are cooking snail noodles..." Zhou Zhiguo glanced at Han Xiao and then answered slowly.
"What?" Han Xiao heard this. His feet faltered for a moment, and he almost fell. He subconsciously asked back, his face full of surprise and disbelief. He even suspected that Zhou Zhiguo had said something wrong.
"How is this possible..."
"I'll just say my nose isn't wrong..."
"How come there is still such a thing now..."
"That's right, that's right..."
After hearing Zhou Zhiguo's words, the team members following behind Han Xiao couldn't help but start talking. Although they deliberately suppressed the volume, one could still hear the surprise and shock that were difficult to conceal.
After hearing Zhou Zhiguo's words, the team members following behind Han Xiao couldn't help but start whispering. Although their voices were not loud, they were full of surprise and shock.
"Wait, no matter what happens, it's better for everyone not to make such a fuss..." Zhou Zhiguo heard a slightly noisy sound coming from behind him, stopped and turned to say to the group of people.
“…” The team members stopped and looked at Zhou Zhiguo in confusion.
"Everyone, listen to Captain Zhou..." Han Xiao looked at Zhou Zhiguo's expression. He had also heard Qi Jiang say before that Chen Ruoruo preferred quietness and disliked noise. If his teammates made a fuss and made a lot of noise, it would inevitably leave a bad impression on her, and it would be even more difficult for her to stay with Chen Ruoruo.
"Yes..." The group of people looked at each other and answered in unison, then swallowed their saliva at the same time. The smell of snail noodles in the air became richer and more tempting.
As the group approached the small bungalow, Han Xiao and others saw a bonfire burning not far away from the door. The flames danced and made crackling sounds from time to time. The fire illuminated the surrounding space, adding a touch of mystery and warmth to the whole scene.
More than a dozen figures gathered under the porch of the house. The firelight reflected on people's faces, casting flickering shadows and making their expressions unclear.
“It’s delicious…”
"This is simply a divine product. Why couldn't I eat it before?"
"Who knows?"
"It's not that you can't eat it, it's that wild boars can't eat fine bran, hahahahaha..."
“Puff…”
“Hahahahahahahahahahahaha…”
"Okay, you're laughing at me, right? I'll teach you a lesson..."
"Come on..."
