Seeing Sun Hao being frightened like this in an instant, Nan Ci couldn't help but doubt himself.
Is she really that scary? She could scare him like this with just one look.
Although he thought so in his heart, his facial expression did not change much.
Nan Ci just said calmly, "It's okay if you don't want to go."
She didn't mean for Sun Hao to go with her.
However, Sun Hao was not happy about Nan Ci's words and still had a sad face.
"I...I can't leave the base even if I don't go now."
The base was restricted to entry and exit, so even if he wanted to leave, it was too late.
"It's okay." The old Taoist patted Sun Hao's shoulder, "You can still stay here and wait for us to come back."
Sun Hao hesitated for a moment after hearing this, then shook his head firmly.
"Forget it, I'd better go with you. It'll be safer with you. If I really stay here alone, who knows what might happen."
The old Taoist priest looked at Sun Hao with some curiosity, "What will happen?"
Sun Hao's expression became a little hard to describe. After a while, he said, "Maybe there are criminals who broke into the house and robbed it. When you come back, you can only collect the bodies for me."
After hearing this, the old Taoist priest did not say anything immediately, but stared at Sun Hao without blinking. After a long while, he slowly spoke again.
"Maybe we won't be able to come back, and you'll just have to rot in here."
Nan Ci, "..."
Although she knew that the old Taoist priest was joking, the joke didn't seem that funny.
Sun Hao also didn't find it funny at all, and even almost cried, "Brother, can you please hope for me to be well?"
"Of course I hope you're well! Didn't you say that if you didn't stay and wanted to go with us, you definitely wouldn't stay here and get smelly."
That's indeed what he said, but Sun Hao always felt that something was not right.
But he just couldn't explain it.
After thinking about it for a while, I finally put it out of my mind.
Nan Ci ignored the bickering between the two and thought seriously about where to find the research institute.
Mysterious scientific research places like this are usually hidden quite deeply, for fear of being found by ordinary people.
Nan Ci and the old Taoist priest had only been to the base a few times and were not familiar with the base. If they wanted to find the research institute, they could either go out and search the streets one by one, or...
Nan Ci's gaze fell on Sun Hao, "Do you have any acquaintances in the base? Can you find out some news about the research institute?" Nan Ci asked.
Sun Hao shook his head with a bitter face, "I am just a nobody, even filling my own stomach is a problem.
People like me are afraid that I will ask them to borrow food just because they know me, so how can they become my network of contacts? "
Although he was belittling himself implicitly and implicitly, Sun Hao did not think there was anything wrong with it and was not ashamed of it.
His answer was completely within Nan Ci's expectations.
Nan Ci nodded, "It's not easy for us to find them, but it's much easier for them to find us."
Sun Hao's eyes widened instantly, and he thought of a possibility. He asked tremblingly, "You...you are not thinking of using yourself as bait to lure them into the trap, so that they can capture you and take you to the research institute?"
Nan Ci gave Sun Hao an appreciative look, "Your brain works pretty fast!" (End of this chapter)
