"We don't know what kind of person Chen Ruoruo was before, or what happened to her. But we all know exactly what kind of person she is now. Without her, we wouldn't have those supplies, and we wouldn't be alive until now. No matter what, no matter what others say, we must protect her..." Zhou Zhiguo said firmly, looking at the three people in front of him.
"I understand..." Tao Wei and the other two responded firmly in unison.
At the same time, Zhou Zhiguo also ordered the three people to go down and once again reminded the team members who were following the mission to keep the details of the mission confidential.
In the Shudu base, basically everyone has heard the rumors to some extent, and knows that there is a ruthless master of gold-type supernatural powers in the base, but they are not afraid of it at all.
Although they did not know who the gold-type mutant was, such a powerful person was in their base and was their strongest backing and security guarantee.
Moreover, this mysterious figure not only saved the base's members during the mission, but also helped the base find so many supplies. This kind of thing that has only benefits and no harm naturally makes these beneficiaries have no complaints or dissatisfaction.
Especially when they knew that the base encountered a rat swarm on the way back, if it were not for the gold-type mutant who turned the tide, Zhou Zhiguo and his men would have been wiped out along with their supplies. They were extremely grateful to this man. If it were not for them, not to mention improved dry food, they would not even have bear meat to eat.
However, the people in the base couldn't help but secretly speculate who the gold-type psychic was. However, the first person they ruled out was Chen Ruoruo. After all, when she attacked in the base before, she had already revealed that she had water and wood-type psychics.
Chen Ruoruo was completely unaware of the rumors circulating inside and outside the base. She continued to lead a routine life, but she noticed that Qi Jiang and the others hadn't come to see her since their previous visit. Even Han Xiao hadn't come to see her once.
Although Chen Ruoruo felt strange in her heart, after all, they always came to her every few days before, she just thought that they had more important things to do.
Of course, she did not use her consciousness to check out of curiosity. As long as she was in the base, she would basically not use her consciousness. And unless there were special circumstances, the range of her consciousness was limited to the area around her residence.
Of course, it wasn’t that Qi Jiang and Han Xiao didn’t want to come find Chen Ruoruo, but Zhou Zhiguo didn’t approve their application. He did this to prevent these people from accidentally spreading rumors outside.
So he simply didn't let them see Chen Ruoruo, and even repeatedly told Tao Wei to protect Chen Ruoruo and not let anyone take advantage of the opportunity to enter and disturb her.
Time flies, and soon more than a month has passed. That afternoon, Zhou Zhiguo brought Qi Jiang, Han Xiao and others to Chen Ruoruo's residence.
"You guys better be alert and don't let anything messy jump out..." Zhou Zhiguo looked at the group seriously and warned them again.
"Captain Zhou, we get it. You've said it several times..."
"Don't worry, we will keep our mouths shut..."
“Ouch…”
The familiar howl of a wolf echoed from within the fence.
But after a while, the group saw a woman walking out from the side of the small bungalow. She was wearing a white lace retro short-sleeved cheongsam. The complicated and delicate buttons of the same color meandered from the neckline to the side of the body, cleverly serving the purpose of fixing and decorating her.
A lifelike pink and yellow velvet flower was pinned below her right shoulder, and the beads hanging below made crisp and pleasant sounds with her light steps.
Chen Ruoruo's cascading, inky black hair was neatly tied back with a jade hairpin, revealing her soft, well-defined jawline. A pair of jade earrings, as translucent as water droplets, dangled from her delicate earlobes, gently swaying with her every movement, further accentuating her otherworldly appearance.
"Come in quickly..." Chen Ruoruo said to the group with a faint smile on her face.
"Ruoruo, we miss you so much..." Xia Xiaoying and others quickly rushed to Chen Ruoruo and said to her excitedly.
"That's right, that's right, look at me, I have white hair..."
"I have it too, I have it too..."
Xia Xiaoying and a few others kept complaining to Chen Ruoruo. From time to time, they turned their heads and glared at Zhou Zhiguo behind them. They were still full of resentment that he had not allowed them to see Chen Ruoruo during this period of time.
"...I...I understand..." Chen Ruoruo looked at the enthusiastic expressions of the people in front of her and felt a little at a loss for a moment.
"Hmm..." Qi Jiang coughed and glanced at the excited group of people.
“…” Upon seeing this, Xia Xiaoying and the others reacted instantly, looked at each other, and then quickly controlled their emotions and calmed down one after another.
"Ruoruo...long time no see..." Han Xiao nodded at Chen Ruoruo, and the people behind him also waved to Chen Ruoruo intentionally.
"Captain Han... Long time no see..." Chen Ruoruo curled the corners of her mouth and looked at them in confusion as they seemed a little embarrassed and nervous, not knowing why they reacted like that.
"..." Zhou Zhiguo looked at Chen Ruoruo, his eyes flashing. He didn't know if it was because he hadn't seen her for a long time, but he felt that Chen Ruoruo looked very special and extraordinary today.
"Captain Zhou, has the mission been announced?" Chen Ruoruo asked Zhou Zhiguo.
"Hmm..." Zhou Zhiguo looked into Chen Ruoruo's eyes and answered calmly.
"When do we set off?" Chen Ruoruo looked at Zhou Zhiguo and asked. After all, it had been almost a month and a half since the last mission ended, and she didn't know why there was such a long interval this time.
"Tomorrow..." Zhou Zhiguo
"So urgent?" Chen Ruoruo was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was nothing. Maybe they were waiting for the cars that had left the convoy earlier.
"Well, is it inconvenient for you?" Zhou Zhiguo nodded and asked, looking into Chen Ruoruo's eyes. He came here this time to ask about her time.
The reason why this mission started so late was because the rumors were so rampant some time ago. There were even quite a few people who had been lurking near the base, or waiting for an opportunity to come in and investigate the whereabouts of the gold-type mutant.
Fortunately, they only have the clue of superpowers and know nothing about other information. Zhou Zhiguo has been treating those rumors coldly.
At the same time, during this period, the team's vehicles were completely renovated, the team members' special ability training was strengthened, and even the situations that might be encountered in various tasks were deduced. Only after making almost all preparations did he come to find Chen Ruoruo.
