Chapter 94: Riot
Lei Yangzhou felt a splitting headache, those memories kept hitting him. An Qi was really bewitched by Xia Bing, and the mastermind behind framing Manman was really Xia Bing. An Qi was just a scapegoat.
He returned to the secret laboratory with a sense of loss. He had never changed his self-centered habit, which was why he was tossed around by a woman. Even if his IQ was restored, it would be better to be sober when he was mentally retarded. At least at that time he cared about Manman wholeheartedly, loved Manman, and only wanted her to be happy.
And now, what on earth had he done... He had been hurting her, and she was almost killed by this vicious woman.
Thinking of Manman's resolute expression after she left, he was moved again.
Lei Yangzhou called his assistant, "Don't I have a quota to bring my family members? It was originally given to Xia Bing, but now she can't go, so I want to leave it to Ding Manman..." He couldn't make the same mistake again. He should at least save her life and explain the rest to Manman later.
The assistant was very curious about Lei Yangzhou's sudden change of heart, "But, Miss Xia..."
"From now on, just assume that person is dead. Leave her some basic food. I have done my best for her." Although the assistant didn't know what happened, he had to obey Lei Yangzhou's words. Moreover, Xia Bing had always relied on Lei Yangzhou's support and was a little mean to him. He originally thought that the woman deserved it. It seemed that the relationship between Ding Manman and Commander Lei had been eased.
"Yes, sir." The assistant withdrew, but Lei Yangzhou was unsure in his heart. Even if Manman refused to leave this time, he would kidnap her.
Seeing Xia Bing's distraught look, the assistant threw a bag of instant food to her and said, "This may be the last food you will enjoy, so cherish it!"
"What did you say? What do you mean?" Xia Bing frowned and looked at the expired instant noodles and bread.
"Captain Lei has already said that you don't have to leave. You don't need to pack your clothes or anything. Just enjoy your life here!" The assistant smiled. When he said this, he felt a little happy for some reason. He had been bullied by Xia Bing for too long.
"You are just a small assistant, how dare you talk to me like this? Call Lei Yangzhou! I want to talk to him." Xia Bing didn't believe it at all. A person could change so easily. He was clearly comforting her yesterday, so why did he abandon her today?
"Captain Lei will never see you again, but he lets you live here because of our old friendship. Otherwise, you would have been thrown into the slums long ago. Do you think you can still live in this single room? It won't be many days anyway, so just stay here and don't do it anymore. I'm just a small assistant, but I can go back to the base and I can save my life. What about you? You depend on men, but in the end, you will be abandoned by them. Do you think Commander Lei will still protect you?" The assistant sneered and was about to leave.
Who knew that Xia Bing actually grabbed the corner of his clothes and said, "Don't go, please, Yangzhou will not give up on me. There are just some misunderstandings between us that have not been explained clearly. Can you please help me pass on a message?" The arrogance just now was gone, and now she spoke to him in an almost pleading tone.
The assistant was not a fool. "This is not something I can decide. Commander Lei is very angry. I advise you not to be so self-indulgent and do these unnecessary things. Isn't it better to live the rest of your life well?"
The assistant was about to leave when he saw the arrogant Xia Bing actually start to take off her clothes. "I know you don't need anything, but at least I still have a body to exchange with you. Please help me one last time."
For some reason, the assistant felt a little pity for her when he looked at her. Maybe there must be something hateful about pitiful people. Although he liked women, he didn't dare to touch a woman with a vicious heart.
"Ms. Xia, put it on. I'm not interested in you. If you want a man, I can send you to other places. There are plenty of men there, and they won't despise a woman like you. After all, all they want is a body." He said this sarcastically, but he angered Xia Bing instead.
"You insult me?"
"Do you still need me to insult you? Your heart has been dirty for a long time and can't be washed clean." The assistant laughed and locked the door, leaving Xia Bing alone in the room.
She finally felt helpless and in pain. "Impossible... Impossible. Even if I'm not your savior, what does all those years of love mean?"
The door was locked, so she couldn't get out? She still had something to save her life! Xia Bing took out a gun from the cabinet. She bought it when she was abroad and kept it with her for self-defense. She didn't expect to use it at this time.
With trembling hands, she fired several shots in the direction of the door lock, and the gunshots quickly attracted the attention of other soldiers.
"What's going on? Why are there gunshots?" Xia Bing curled up in the corner of the room. "There's a man going in that direction!" She pointed to the left, and two soldiers quickly ran towards the place she pointed. They had not been notified yet, so they continued to protect the people on this floor as usual.
Xia Bing looked at their departing backs and smiled more miserably, "Lei Yangzhou, if you don't let me live well, I won't let you live well either. Of course, I won't let that little bitch live well either."
…
Qin Muxue originally wanted to find a way to cause chaos in the shelter, but she didn't expect that someone else would take action without her having to.
A familiar voice came from the shelter's radio station: "In seven days, an asteroid will hit this area. Everyone in the shelter will die in this disaster, but only you, a group of low-class civilians, will die. There are obviously 100 places to leave, but it is unfair to leave the opportunity to you. Instead, it is only left to the senior management and management here. What's more, they enjoy delicious food and medical care, but you are eating coarse food, working hard, and even can't see your own children. You are separated from your flesh and blood. The purpose of building a shelter is to provide civilians with a place to avoid disasters, but now it has become a place to pursue profits. Do you feel like you are being treated as human beings here? No, you are just being treated as tools here!"
There was an uproar in the civilian area, "What's going on?"
Originally, exchanging work for food was a natural thing here. As long as they were alive, there was hope. But now the radio said that this place would be destroyed in seven days. Then what was the point of them working so hard here?
"Is what she said true?"
"Isn't it just to cause panic? After all, at least we are not starving to death here."
"If I'm not starving to death, I'm about to get food poisoning. The food I eat is worse than pig food!"
"Yeah, and we're all freezing to death, and we don't even have a decent piece of clothing."
"The intensity of the work is also very high, and those foods can't satisfy us!"
Xia Bing sneered, knowing that she would not make them believe it just by talking. She showed them the current situation outside the shelter. There was a huge sun-like planet hanging in the sky, emitting a strange glow.
In an instant, the civilians in the shelter seemed to have giant phobia. A woman screamed in fear, "Blue Planet is really going to be destroyed. We are going to die!"
This immediately aroused the emotions of other people, and the civilian area of the entire shelter began to become chaotic. The administrator began to scold, "Stop making trouble, this is all nonsense, the shelter will operate normally! This place will not be destroyed!" These explanations were drowned out by the crowd.
Thousands of people in the civilian area began to panic. The administrator had no choice but to shoot the person who started the panic.
This immediately aroused the emotions of the people. Those who had been living here in the first place disagreed. They thought the administrators' lives were just lives, while they lived a life worse than pigs and dogs. "Kill him! Kill him! We are all going to die anyway, so we might as well fight for a better life before we die!" a voice sounded.
The originally silent but frightened crowd suddenly became excited and started throwing various things at the administrator. The administrator couldn't stand it anymore and started shooting randomly. Some people fell to the ground, which aroused public anger. The administrator was soon outnumbered and had no power to resist facing a group of people who were not afraid of death.
The same was true in other areas. The crowds could not be controlled at all. Even if soldiers were sent to suppress them in the end, the soldiers' mission was to protect the people. How could they shoot at them?
Commander Wu was furious. "If you don't shoot, they will attack here soon. What are you doing here?"
The soldiers said, "I'm sorry, Commander Wu, although you are our commander, we are here to maintain order. We are directly under the command of the headquarters base!"
Commander Wu also had a group of secret troops, which were originally set up to satisfy his own ambitions. Now that this group of people were unwilling to obey him, he narrowed his eyes and had the intention of killing them. At this time, Lei Yangzhou had arrived and discovered Commander Wu's intention, "Commander Wu, what do you want to do? Do you want to kill your own people?"
"What do you mean by 'one of our own' or 'one of our own'? They are obviously all your people. And what was going on in the broadcast just now? It must be your fault that such a panic was caused!"
"I have sent people to deal with it..." It was his negligence. He originally thought that Xia Bing was just a weak woman, but he forgot that she was also a weak and insidious woman. Although people were sent there in time, the panic had already occurred and a riot in the shelter was inevitable. Now he had to find a way to stabilize people's hearts first.
"I'll find a way to keep them stable, Commander Wu!"
"They have been abandoned anyway. We have no way to take them away. We might as well deal with them right here." Commander Wu's eyes showed a sinister light. "If your men don't want to do it, then let my men do it!"
"Captain Wu, please give me some more time. I will try to persuade them."
At this time, a disheveled administrator rushed in and shouted, "It's bad. They are out of control. Several administrators have been killed by the civilians! Now they have weapons in their hands. If we continue to let them go like this... the consequences will be disastrous. Commander Lei, we can't hesitate any longer, act quickly!"
Commander Wu snorted coldly, "You should know that Commander Lei and his subordinates are all timid..."
They had two planes in total, one in Lei Yangzhou's hands and one in Commander Wu's hands. They were originally going to be arranged according to the list from the higher-ups, but at this point in time, Commander Wu had already had other ideas.
It would be better to take advantage of the riot in the shelter to kill Lei Yangzhou and his men. In this way, he can seize two planes and take more people away. Even if he arrives at the base, he can use the excuse that a riot has occurred. It really kills two birds with one stone. The group of civilians has been easily dealt with. Now his target is still Lei Yangzhou in front of him.
Commander Wu held the wine glass, tasting the wine with a comfortable look on his face. "Come out!" A row of fully armed soldiers suddenly appeared behind Commander Wu. "Since you came here on your own, don't leave."
Lei Yangzhou had long known that Commander Wu had ill intentions and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to get rid of him. He concentrated his mental power. Lei Yangzhou was able to invade the memories of others, just like he invaded Xia Bing's memory yesterday, but it required a huge expenditure of mental power. He could also use his mental power to control the other party's actions. For example, now he was controlling Commander Wu's men to point all their guns at Commander Wu himself.
Commander Wu put down his glass and applauded, "As expected of Commander Lei, you are really awesome. But, I was just teasing you!" The group of soldiers did not seem to be affected and pointed their guns at Lei Yangzhou again.
The two forces are now facing each other, and Lei Yangzhou's supernatural power obviously has no effect on Chief Wu's men. "How could it be, my supernatural power."
"We have been researching your special abilities for a long time. Although you are very smart, you cannot control some of your subordinates. They told me your secret. As long as you wear this radio wave jammer, your special abilities will not be able to control them." Commander Wu could not help laughing out loud. He was determined to win this time.
…
Qin Muxue and the others heard the alarm in the shelter being sounded, and the entire shelter started a riot. "It happened faster than I thought."
"Was that Xia Bing's voice just now?" Ding Manman asked in disbelief.
"It seems that she must have broken up with Lei Yangzhou. With her personality, I'm not surprised that she did such a thing." Now they don't have to investigate, Xia Bing told everything, "Anyway, we now know that it's because an asteroid is about to hit us."
The impact of the asteroid will be devastating. It seems that they must prepare to leave here quickly. Seeing the chaos in the shelter, a group of people first rushed into the warehouse to grab food, and then some parents who were forced to be separated from their children ran to the school to find their children. Children who had not seen their parents for a long time rushed into the arms of their families.
Grandma Qu asked in a panic, "Are we just going to let them be like this? Those children..."
They are not the children's parents, all they can do is take good care of the children. Now that their parents are here, let them reunite as a family.
"Grandma Qu, let them be. Look how happy the children are. After all, we are their biological parents. Who are we to separate their flesh and blood?"
A mother hugged her daughter tightly, her face full of tears. The girl sobbed in her mother's arms, "Mom, mom, I thought you didn't want me anymore."
"How could mom not want you? Are you okay here? Mom hasn't seen you for half a month."
"My brother, sister and grandma are very good to us." The woman looked at her originally sunken face, which had become rounder. "Thank you." The woman knew Qin Muxue, who was the one who taught the male administrator a lesson before. "You should quickly see if there are any supplies that can be taken away. The looting here has gone crazy. My husband is still at the warehouse grabbing supplies."
Qin Muxue and Manman looked at each other, everything happened too fast and they had no time to act. They had enough supplies and food, and they could see if there was anything else they could take away in the shelter. Compared to food, she was more interested in some instruments, as most of the remaining instruments in the military base were old.
After all the children were picked up by their parents, only two were left without parents. It seemed that their parents had decided to give up on them.
Wu You looked at Qin Muxue eagerly, "Sister Qin, there are only these two children left now, and they don't have a father or a mother. Can we take them with us?"
"If no one comes to pick them up, just leave them here. It's very dangerous here now. Ask your father and grandmother to pack their things. When I come back, we have to leave here quickly."
Qin Muxue planned to go see if there was anything she could take away for free, and Shi Yan whispered behind her: "I'll go with you."
Manman volunteered, "I want to go, too."
Since Manman had gone, Qu Yanbai naturally followed behind happily. Qin Muxue shook her head helplessly, "Then there will only be a group of old, weak, women and children left here."
Qu Yanbai glanced at Grandma Qu. For some reason, he felt a little uneasy. "Then please take good care of Manman."
"You don't need to tell me, I will definitely take good care of her."
Qu Yanbai glanced at Manman reluctantly and said, "The sooner you go, the sooner you can return."
"Don't worry!" Before leaving, Manman suddenly ran to Qu Yanbai and kissed him on the face, "Just wait for me to come back!"
Qu Yanbai was stunned on the spot. A man who had been single since birth actually received a sweet kiss from his beloved. He almost lost his soul.
Wu You covered his eyes and silently said to himself, "Ignore what is inappropriate, don't look at what is inappropriate."
Grandma Qu showed a gratified expression, "My eldest grandson, you have made great progress."
When Qu Yanbai came back to his senses, he found that Manman had already left with Qin Muxue. He touched the place on his face where he was kissed in a daze. Grandma Qu said with a smile: "Look, Manman is interested in you."
"Grandma, you're wrong. It's not that she is interested in me, I fell in love with her first." He had fallen in love with her unknowingly. After thinking it through, he became more clear about his feelings. He must do his best to protect Manman for the rest of his life.
Seeing the emotion in her grandson's eyes, Grandma Qu instructed: "Yan Bai, you like her. If Manman accepts you, you must treat her well. She lost her parents when she was young and is a poor child. At least you still have grandma, but she only has relatives who oppress her. Grandma also likes Manman very much. She is a smart, sensible and filial child. If you are not good to Manman, grandma will be the first to break off relations with you. Do you understand?"
"I know, grandma. This hasn't even started yet, so don't worry."
"I don't know how to be anxious. In these days of displacement, we can't even provide Manman with what a girl needs. How can I be anxious? My only wish is that you can support each other, take good care of her, and overcome the difficulties together." Grandma Qu said earnestly.
"Don't worry, grandma, I understand all this." If it were in a peaceful and prosperous era, if Qu Yanbai wanted to marry Manman, he would definitely do his best to give her what she wanted, but now... Alas, Qu Yanbai shook his head. He heard that an asteroid would land in this area, which was a disaster that had never been encountered before.
Wu You looked at Qu Yanbai's gradually serious expression and said, "Brother Qu, isn't it terrible if an asteroid hits the blue planet? I saw it on TV before, and the dinosaurs became extinct because of it?"
"Well, if the asteroid is relatively large and hits the Blue Planet, it is very likely to destroy all life on the entire planet. If it is relatively small, it may only affect an area." It seems that the asteroid they monitored should be relatively small, otherwise humans would have no way to escape.
Qu Yanbai was thinking about something, but suddenly saw a group of people rushing over and began to search for things in the school. Seeing that there were only some useless things here, he asked angrily: "Is there no food or other useful supplies here?"
Qu Yanbai shook her head. The man saw that Qian Xinran was pretty and wanted to take her for himself. He saw the child in her arms and said, "Do you have a husband? A child is a burden. Why don't you just leave the child to me and let me protect you? If you follow me, at least you won't starve to death..." But before he could finish his words, the man's hair was already on fire. He rolled on the ground in pain and yelled, "What's going on? Save me!"
The companions next to him didn't dare to come forward at all, they just took his supplies and ran away.
The man was burned to ashes in the blink of an eye. The remaining two children were terrified when they saw it and hid in Grandma Qu's arms. Even Wu You remained silent for a long time.
Only then did Qian Xinran realize that Qian Yan's eyes had turned red. Only after the man died did he return to his normal self and put the pacifier in his mouth.
It seems that this child will be a super-powerful psychic in the future. However, An An suddenly had a headache at this time. Qu Yanbai was a little worried. Qin Muxue was not here at this time, and only Qin Muxue could control An An.
"An An, do you feel uncomfortable?"
An An suddenly opened her eyes, and this time she returned to her secondary personality. "I smell something strange." An An said.
