Chapter 110 Temporary Sleep
"So, the man in black is actually also from the company? And he's a secret-level staff member?" I repeated in disbelief.
Of course, what I found most incredible was what the man in black said about the source of pollution and the evil god.
There was so much information that I didn't even know what to ask.
There was also the inexplicable golden light. It was said that during that time, Chen Yubing noticed that Lin Hanning was missing. Until the golden light disappeared, Lin Hanning appeared again, and became very weak.
It's obvious that the golden light must be related to her.
Jiang Wang was also listening quietly beside me and pouring me a cup of hot water.
I took it without hesitation and said thank you.
"Um...I'm sorry."
I waved my hands to indicate that I didn't care.
I was indeed very angry at the beginning, but after waking up, I felt better and not so depressed, and that nameless anger had long since disappeared.
Seeing this, Chen Yubing explained, "Alright, both of you, stop being silent. Everyone's minds have been affected by the cherry juice. According to Lin Hanning, cherry juice can affect people's minds and even cause cognitive pollution."
No wonder we have been arguing frequently since we met Fan Buqiu. Only Lin Hanning is relatively calm. It makes sense if she is immune to the contamination of cherry juice.
But the thought that the cherry juice I drank all day turned out to be that mysterious blood rain made me feel nauseous.
Seeing my expression changing from dark to white, Chen Yubing asked worriedly:
"How are you? Are you feeling unwell?"
I shook my head: "It's okay, I just feel a little nauseous... Ugh..."
Before I could finish my words, I started to dry heave again. Seeing this, Jiang Wang quickly poured me another glass of water.
I took the cup and took another big sip.
"Why are you suddenly nauseous? Are you okay?"
Jiang Wang said with some concern.
I took a breath and said slowly, "It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered the cherry juice..."
Before I could finish, Jiang Wang's face suddenly turned pale and he started to retch.
Seeing us like this, Chen Yubing shook his head and laughed.
"Yubing, you drank that too... don't you feel sick?"
Chen Yin said calmly:
"Disgusting."
"Then why are you so calm?" Jiang Wang asked in disbelief.
"I've eaten and drunk all sorts of things far more disgusting than this during previous missions."
Chen Yubing spoke lightly, with no change in the expression on his face. He was really used to it.
Jiang Wang and I immediately showed great respect for her.
"Ahem...that..."
Jiang Wang coughed dryly and continued:
"Working at your company sounds dangerous. Is it too late to change my mind now?"
"Okay." Chen Yubing nodded.
I was actually a little surprised. How could someone who had already participated in the mission actually leave? But then I thought of another possibility: maybe they were trying to silence me...
But then I think it's impossible. As long as the person hasn't mutated into an insane monster, the Investigation Bureau generally won't kill him. They will just delete his memory and keep him under close surveillance.
Not knowing what Jiang Wang was thinking, he shook his head and said, "No regrets, I think this is quite exciting. It's the end of the world anyway, and I'm going to die anyway. Maybe my chances of survival will be higher if I follow you guys."
Then you are wrong, young man.
I complained silently in my mind that the death rate of the Bureau of Investigation investigators was even higher than that of ordinary mutants.
Chen Yubing gave a cold laugh and said, "Our company doesn't allow you to join just because you want to. You're still a temporary employee."
Jiang Wang was speechless for a moment after being confronted by him. He secretly leaned close to me and whispered, "Ji Ling, she's so serious~"
Perhaps because everyone survived the disaster and was still alive, although the crisis had not yet been overcome, the atmosphere was much more relaxed.
I smiled and didn't answer Jiang Wang.
I had used high-intensity fear projection many times before. Fortunately, Lin Hanning was there, so I didn't mutate out of control, but my mental state at the moment is not very good.
Perhaps seeing my tired face, Chen Yubing stood up and said:
"You two should get some more sleep. I just slept, so I'll be on duty for the rest of the night."
I nodded, but still didn't dare to sleep.
I glanced at the man in black in the corner with some concern.
Seeing this, Chen Yubing probably guessed what I was worried about and comforted me, "Don't worry, he can't use his abilities anymore. Although it's possible that he's faking it like Fan Buqiu, it's already late at night and there's nothing else going on. I'll keep an eye on him."
Thinking about it carefully, what Chen Yubing said is true. If he was really pretending, as a secret staff member, he was able to survive the accident in Tiannan City Investigation Bureau. Even if he wanted to do something to us, we would have no room to fight back based on our current condition.
The difference in strength between a secret-level investigator and a level I investigator is huge.
Thinking of this, I stopped worrying about it and just fell to the side and lay on the small sofa to continue catching up on my sleep.
Jiang Wang was amazed when he saw this:
"It's good to be young, you can fall asleep right away."
I didn't even bother to lift my eyelids and replied, "Don't use the words I said to describe me."
After saying that, I felt sleepy and fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up again, it was already getting light outside, but still gray. I moved my body and looked at the time. It was already 8:10.
Lin Hanning and Jiang Wang were still sleeping, and the man in black was sitting there with Chen Yubing.
I shook my head and still felt a little dizzy, but much better than yesterday.
When Chen Yubing saw that I woke up, he handed me a piece of compressed biscuit.
"Let's eat something first. Lin Hanning probably won't wake up for a while. Let's wait until around 9 o'clock before calling her."
I nodded and walked over quietly.
He glanced at the man in black next to him. He had already taken off his hood. The man looked very gentle, with slightly long hair, which he casually tied on top of his head, making him look like a Taoist priest.
I looked at him and he smiled slightly and said:
"The conditions were tough. I couldn't get a haircut and it was too hot with the hood on."
I'm not curious about his appearance, but I'm more concerned about what he said about the source of pollution and the evil god.
But due to the residual negative influence of fear projection, my mind is confused at the moment and I don’t know where to start.
I just asked whatever came to my mind:
"Is that the note you left on the bed in my room?"
The man in black nodded.
"Why? Did you know this all along?"
"I know. I witnessed the entire incident. I left this note for you to leave quickly."
After hearing what he said, I just sat down.
"Brother, tell me in detail."
The man in black nodded and asked me, "Which parts do you want to know?"
I thought about it and decided that the mission was more important.
"Well... let's talk about the cause of the incident at the Investigation Bureau."
