Are you alright?
Zhou Siyu rushed to Yu Zhen's side and took his hand to examine it.
"It's alright." Yu Zhen shook his head and comforted Zhou Siyu with a smile: "Luckily I changed my gloves, otherwise who knows what would have happened if the water had gotten on the wound."
"It's good that everything is alright. Be careful." Zhou Siyu breathed a sigh of relief. "These things have been sealed for too long. Not only have they gone bad, but they may also carry bacteria and viruses. Be extra careful."
"Mmm-hmm." Yu Zhen nodded vigorously. "I understand. I'll be careful."
Zhou Siyu nodded and returned to her original spot to continue her search.
King Etolan II was utterly insane. From whales to ants, anything that flew in the sky, ran on the ground, or swam in the sea, anything within his sight would be captured and brought to his laboratory, not to mention immovable plants.
This storage room is just the tip of the iceberg, and it's already enough to make people's hearts tremble, let alone the larger storage rooms.
After what had just happened, Yu Zhen's movements slowed noticeably, and he kept muttering to himself, "No offense intended, please forgive me..."
"O suffering spirits of the sea, forest, sky, and land, please guide me to find a way to cure the Kao virus..."
Zhou Siyu couldn't help but smile. Yu Zhen was sometimes really like a child. He could make friends with the little flowers and grass by the roadside, and sometimes he could even talk to a flower all day long.
"Ha, sister-in-law, sister-in-law, come and see!"
Yu Zhen was so excited she wanted to jump up, but quickly realized that there were glass jars all around her, so she excitedly pointed at the glass jars instead.
"Look, what does this leaf look like?"
"What?"
"It's like a sword! It's slightly thicker in the middle, thin and sharp at the edges, and if you look closely, you can see very fine serrations..."
Now that you mention it, it does seem a bit like that.
Zhou Siyu gave a thumbs up, reached out and took the glass jar, putting it into her backpack. "I'll take it back and study it."
"Are we just going to take it like this?"
"What else? Why don't you register it with an administrator?"
As Zhou Siyu joked, he closed his backpack, his keen ears catching the sound of footsteps.
"Shh!"
Zhou Siyu made a gesture to turn off all the lights, and pulled Yu Zhen to squat down. Fortunately, the bottom of the glass jar and the bottom of the glass cabinet were opaque, which was just enough to cover the two of them.
With his keen hearing, he could hear the chaotic footsteps in the corridor stopping at the door, interspersed with heavy breathing.
"Captain, take a break."
The rough male voice lacked strength, and his rapid breathing almost drowned out his words.
"Aite, have you forgotten our mission?"
A clear, cold female voice rang out, and Zhou Siyu felt that it sounded somewhat familiar. After thinking about it carefully, she realized it was familiar.
“We have plenty of time, there’s no rush,” another female voice said, with a hint of negotiation. “Besides, we just escaped from the jaws of a monster and need to rest.”
"Naya, don't forget that I am the one in charge of this mission."
“I haven’t forgotten, but we really need to rest.” The woman called Naya did not back down. “And no one intends to desert. We just need to get some rest.”
“We have entered the basement and there is no danger for the time being.” A deep male voice rang out, as melodious as a cello. “We can rest for now.”
"Sister-in-law~" Yu Zhen opened her mouth and leaned close to Zhou Siyu's ear, "It seems like there's a commotion outside."
"Yes, Zhou Siyun has arrived." Zhou Siyu nodded and pressed Yu Zhen's head down. "Let them argue for a while longer."
How can you be so calm?
Yu Zhen couldn't hold back any longer and opened his minicomputer to send a message to Zhou Siyu, "Zhou Siyun is one of my suitors, how can you be so calm?"
"Yeah?"
Zhou Siyu was stunned. No wonder he always felt that Zhou Siyun was hostile to him and had secretly arranged the authorization for the secret domain. It turned out that she wanted to use the same trick as Zhou Yu back then and make him die inside.
"Yeah, I hate her. It's one thing to have such a princess complex, but who can stand that spoiled brat attitude?"
This circle isn't very big, but the members of the same family have close relationships. Most of the peers know each other and occasionally hang out together.
Zhou Siyun is the kind of princess who wants everyone to pamper her, pretentious and affected, as if everyone has to kneel down and serve her.
To be honest, he didn't like the Zhou family. They were arrogant and looked down on everyone just because they had some money.
Sometimes he even wondered if the family's fake smiles were genetic, always wearing a hypocritical smile that made people very uncomfortable.
"Finally, someone understands me."
Zhou Siyu couldn't help but sigh. After all these years, her personality hadn't changed at all: domineering, pretentious, and disrespectful of others.
"Wen Lie, you're the vice-captain, how can you collude with them?"
“This is not about colluding with others.” Wen Lie pushed up his black-rimmed glasses. “It’s a fact. After walking for so many days and being attacked by the Ink Butterfly, everyone’s physical strength is greatly depleted.”
“That’s right.” A tall, thin man with a backpack leaned against the wall, arms crossed, looking at Zhou Siyun sideways. “We’re not like some people who push their teammates out to take the bullets when danger comes and run away first.”
"This is a false accusation and slander!"
"Then go ahead and sue me in the interstellar court." The man chuckled dismissively. "I didn't name names, so why are you jumping over the wall?"
"you……"
Zhou Siyun was so angry she couldn't speak; she had never been treated like this before.
"Enough, all of you be quiet." A gray-haired man interrupted the argument, looking at the combination lock and the half-open door with a complicated expression. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "Someone has been in here."
