Chapter038
The aura of Michel made her feel very comfortable. Shi Jiu leaned on him, trying hard to suppress the uncontrollable strange power in her body.
But Shijiu didn't expect that her calmness would be short-lived. Soon, she felt the temperature in her body grow even hotter. Something inside her body was stirring.
Shi Jiu finally figured out what her situation was.
It's the alien species that has reached its estrus period.
At this moment, there was a member of the opposite sex beside her, a human admiral at that. Shi Jiu instantly felt that this was an extremely dangerous situation. She maintained the last bit of her rationality and withdrew from Mi Xiu's arms.
"Better?" Michel looked down at her.
She kept her head down and didn't dare look him in the eye.
Shi Jiu tried hard to suppress the restlessness in his body and the tentacles that were about to move, and said, "I'm leaving first. Sorry."
After saying that, she turned around and wanted to leave, but the next second her wrist was grabbed.
Shijiu was feeling uncomfortable and had no strength in her body. Michel pulled her back to his side.
He placed his other cold hand on her forehead and frowned slightly, "Do you have a fever?"
"Don't touch me." Shi Jiu's voice was soft.
It would have been fine if Michel hadn't touched her, but as soon as he did, Shi Jiu felt as if something had exploded in her head. Her body couldn't help but want to get closer to him.
Michel stared at her for a while, then he obediently let go of her hand and stepped back.
But every time he took a step back, Shijiu took a step forward.
He kept backing away, but Shijiu's body instinctively didn't want him to be far away from her. Her body reacted first.
Under the beam of light, some small transparent tentacles appeared behind Shi Jiu, and those small tentacles gently wrapped around his hands and wrists.
At the same time, Michel's back was leaning against the cold wall, and there was no way behind him.
The tentacles were very aggressive. Not only did they bind Michel's hands, but they also crawled towards his collarbone and neck. Some of them were so aggressive that they even crawled into Michel's clothes.
Mixiu made no move, nor did he try to stop her, letting her tentacles crawl over his body. His indifferent eyes remained fixed on the girl in front of him.
Shi Jiu knew what she was doing, but she couldn't control herself. Being close to him made her feel very comfortable. Perhaps her little tentacles felt the same way.
Mixiu's eyes were also tinged with a faint red. He took a step forward and got closer to her.
Shijiu subconsciously grabbed his uniform, and her little tentacles seemed even happier, running rampant on his body.
"Alien species?" Shi Jiu asked softly when he heard his cold voice.
Shi Jiu didn't want to answer him anymore. Now her transparent little tentacles had already crawled onto his neck, and the question he asked was completely meaningless.
There was a sudden sting in his arm, and Shijiu's tentacles around his neck subconsciously tightened, but he didn't even blink.
After a while, Shi Jiu felt himself gradually calming down and no longer so irritable and uncomfortable.
A small red dot appeared on her arm. Mi Xiu had just injected something into her body. Shi Jiu reacted and looked up at Mi Xiu, "Do you have an inhibitor?"
Now Shijiu could control her tentacles, and she immediately retracted them. She might have used a little too much force just now, and there were already some red marks on Michel's neck, which were sucked out by the tentacles.
Shijiu's wrist was still held by Mixiu. Shijiu struggled slightly, trying to quietly pull his wrist out of Mixiu's grip. However, Mixiu's hand suddenly exerted force, and Shijiu's nose almost hit his chest. Shijiu heard his chest vibrate slightly, "Aliens have infiltrated the base?"
“.......”
Before Shi Jiu could figure out how to argue, she heard a knock on the door. "Ajiu, are you in there?" It was her colleague Xiao Qi.
"I'm here." Shi Jiu said.
"Come out for a moment. The director has a meeting."
"good."
After answering, Shijiu looked up at Mixiu. He still had no expression on his face, and it was hard to tell what he was up to. But Shijiu was certain of one thing: he wouldn't kill her.
Shijiu moved her arm again, and this time Mixiu let go. Shijiu was slightly stunned and looked up at him again.
"What are you doing, Ajiu?" Xiaoqi asked curiously outside.
Feeling that Xiaoqi's hand had touched the door handle, Shijiu didn't want her to see her and Mixiu together, so she turned around and trotted to the door, opened it and went out.
Michaux's position happened to be a blind spot, and he couldn't see inside from the door.
Shi Jiu closed the door and said, "The minister just asked me to find something."
"Oh, that's it."
Shi Jiu asked again, "Why are you having a meeting at this time?"
Xiao Qi was beside Shi Jiu, walking forward and saying, "The military at the base is coming to inspect."
"It seems Admiral Mishu is coming this time too. It should be related to the alien species. Everyone in the institute is very serious."
Shi Jiu was a little absent-minded, "Yeah."
"But when we heard that General Michel was coming to our institute, the sisters in our institute were so excited!"
"Everyone thinks Admiral Mixiu is the most handsome man in our base." Xiao Qi suddenly turned and looked at Shi Jiu, "Do you think he's good-looking?"
Shijiu's mind inexplicably appeared Michel's face. When she thought of his face, she thought of what he had just done. He clearly had an inhibitor but he waited until she lost control before giving it to her.
"Not bad." Shi Jiu replied with a vengeful look.
"Oh my god! Admiral Michaux's face! What a perfect silhouette! Look at his figure! So tall and perfect, and those long legs!"
"You actually just think he's okay???"
Xiaoqi's voice was a little loud, and before she finished speaking, she heard the sound of a door opening behind her.
Shi Jiu and Xiao Qi looked back and saw a silver-haired man in uniform walking out of the room where Shi Jiu was before.
Xiao Qi fell silent instantly, her mind was a little confused.
At first, she was just surprised why Admiral Mixiu appeared here. Then she remembered that the room behind Admiral Mixiu was the data room where Shi Jiu was before!
Michel had a cold expression on his face, exuding a chilling air. Xiao Qi didn't dare to say a word until Michel walked past them with his long legs.
"You." Xiao Qi reacted and looked at Shi Jiu in disbelief, then pointed blankly at the corner where Mi Xiu disappeared, "You guys."
Shi Jiu helplessly held his forehead, then pulled the confused Xiao Qi and said, "Let's go."
When Shijiu and Xiaoqi rushed to the conference room, the meeting was about to begin. They found a seat and sat down. This time it was a general meeting, and everyone in the institute was there. The conference room was very large.
This meeting was mainly about the alien species issue. The director was talking to the heads of the relevant departments. Michelle didn't arrive until halfway through the meeting.
There was a noticeable slight commotion in the conference room.
Xiao Qi, who had been quiet all this time, finally couldn't help herself. She approached Shi Jiu and asked, "Are you familiar with Admiral Mi Xiu?
Shijiu: “Not familiar.”
Xiao Qi: “........” She doesn’t believe it!
"Let me show you, Admiral Michaux's neck."
"Red...marks."
"Oh my God, is there something wrong with Admiral Mishu?"
Xiao Qi overheard the discussion nearby and subconsciously looked up at General Mixiu. Above General Mixiu's uniform, there were indeed some red marks on his neck, as if...
Xiao Qi opened his eyes wide and looked at Shi Jiu. He stared at Shi Jiu in disbelief for a long time, "Ajiu."
"Hmm?" Shi Jiu looked at Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi silently gave a thumbs up, "Great."
“.......”
The meeting ended successfully, and the military will continue the inspection tomorrow. As the sky darkened, Shi Jiu had just walked out of the institute's gate when she received a message from An Qi.
Someone organized a dinner party for the trainees, and An Qi asked Shijiu if he wanted to go together.
Shi Jiu agreed.
The gathering place was on the rooftop of a nearby building. There were no entertainment venues on the base, so their gathering was just to buy some food and gather somewhere.
However, a sense of ceremony is still necessary, and the gathering place was simply decorated.
There weren't many people coming over, only about seven or eight in total. Most of them were injured, and some of the most seriously injured ones even had an arm missing.
"I'm a soldier at the base. This arm was bitten by an alien species while I was on a mission."
"Alas, I'm just an ordinary person. I'm just unlucky that the injuries on my body were caused by a sneak attack by the Fallen!"
When everyone got together, they naturally started talking about their experiences in the game.
"This dungeon is really hard to play. I don't know if you've seen the bracelet statistics, but over a hundred trainees have been eliminated."
"I saw it. Sigh, I probably won't play this kind of dungeon again. It's too scary. It broke my young heart."
"I thought there would be a lot of trainees at this party, but it turns out there are only a few of us."
"Most trainees are very cautious and don't dare to reveal their identities."
A few people were drinking and chatting when they heard gunshots from downstairs. Everyone seemed to be used to it and just glanced down without much reaction.
"Another Fallen Species has appeared down there. There have been a lot of Fallen Species incidents in the past few days."
"You said that since you've become a fallen species, you shouldn't be here to cause trouble for the base. Why do you insist on staying in the human base and refusing to leave?"
At first, they were discussing the base and the fallen species, but later they began to inquire about their companions. In a place like this, everyone wanted to find their friends.
"I've been looking for my brother for a long time. I don't know if he is still there or has been eliminated." An Qi drank a little wine and said in a low voice.
The two of them sat on the edge of the rooftop, looking up they could see the moon and stars, looking down they could see the brightly lit human base and the high observation tower flickering with light.
"Your brother?"
"Um!"
A figure suddenly appeared in Shijiu's mind. He also said that he wanted to find his sister. Shijiu paused and asked, "What's your brother's name?"
An Qi smiled and said, "Xinpeng!"
“…”
"Do you know him?"
An Qi would definitely be heartbroken if she knew her brother had been eliminated, so it would be better to give her some hope. Shi Jiu said, "I don't know him."
"Let me tell you, my brother is very nice..."
The institute was undergoing a major inspection, and every department was extremely busy. Shijiu had been performing exceptionally well these past few days, making no mistakes in her work. She was soon transferred to a new position, becoming the assistant to the director of the Alien Defense Department. This position was ideal for Shijiu, allowing her to interact with people from all departments, making it easier for her to find the little jellyfish.
The setting sun shone into the research institute. After delivering the materials to another department, Shijiu could go home. Before she could leave the institute, she saw Mixiu in the lobby. Mixiu was standing there alone, looking like he was waiting for someone.
Perhaps feeling her gaze, Michel looked in her direction.
The sunlight was glaring, Michel faced the light, and Shijiu narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Go home?" Michel had already walked to her side.
"Um."
Michaux: "I'll take you there."
“…”
As Shijiu and Mixiu walked side by side, she suddenly thought of something and fumbled in her pocket, pulling out a small silver badge. "Oh, this is for you."
"You must have left it at my house that night. I've been wanting to find a chance to return it to you."
Mixiu took it and said, "Thank you."
The two walked a little further. Shijiu heard something about Mixiu at the research institute today. She asked, "Are you leaving the base?"
"Um."
"Where are you going?"
Mixiu paused for a moment before saying, "The Land of Water and Sky."
Shi Jiu raised her eyes to look at him. Under the golden-red light, it seemed as if his hair had been dyed red. Shi Jiu did not ask any more questions. She lowered her eyes and said softly, "Then I wish you a safe journey."
The two of them had just walked to the gate of the research institute when Shi Jiu saw a familiar figure.
It’s her department head, Director Qi.
Director Qi looked at Shi Jiu, then at Mi Xiu.
There was an inexplicable sense of guarding against the wolf in the look he gave Michel.
"Is there anything wrong, General Mixiu?" Director Qi walked to Shi Jiu's side, with an attitude of protecting a chick.
"Nothing." Michel said calmly.
Director Qi said coldly, "The general's status is special. I hope he won't get too close to our members in the future."
Mi Xiu's eyes remained calm. "Minister Qi should strengthen the alien species prevention and control inspections, otherwise some things may have been tampered with, and you still don't know."
Director Qi chuckled, "It's not your turn to worry about our Alien Defense Department's affairs."
After Director Qi finished speaking, she didn't care about Mi Xiu's reaction. She pulled Shi Jiu away.
Shijiu turned around to look, but Mixiu was facing the backlight, so she couldn't see his expression clearly. Behind him was the huge red sunset. He stood there alone, the breeze blowing his hair, and he felt lonely.
In the end, it was Director Qi who sent her home.
"Don't get too close to him in the future. He's not a good person." Director Qi finally reminded her.
It wasn't until the next day when Shi Jiu went to the lab that she realized her department was suddenly in chaos. Everyone was in a hurry. Shi Jiu grabbed someone and asked, "What happened?"
"The alien's indicators are disordered, and now the minister is almost going crazy." said the man.
"Indicators are messed up?"
"I don't know who injected the alien with an anesthetic or something, causing errors in the alien's body data."
Shijiu: “….”
This seems to be her.
She was very annoyed when she was taking samples that day. The aliens were not obedient, so she simply used her tentacles to paralyze them.
Shi Jiu suddenly remembered Mi Xiu's inexplicable words yesterday afternoon, and she hurried to the minister's office. Sure enough, Minister Qi had also thought of it.
"That guy Mixiu, he obviously knew it a long time ago."
Director Qi was so angry that he almost exploded. "Maybe he did it! Check the surveillance! Check the surveillance for me!"
"Minister, we have strict control measures and no one from outside can come in. It's unlikely that he can become a general." Someone reminded.
"It should be someone from the research institute." Shi Jiu echoed in a calm voice.
Minister Qi looked at Shi Jiu. She still trusted Shi Jiu very much. She said, "Xiao Jiu, you must help me find this traitor!"
“.......”
Shi Jiu: "Okay, Minister, I will."
