Chapter 167 Interstellar Orphan (26)
"elder brother!!!"
Before Shihui could react, the original owner's soul took control of the body and rushed out of the cave.
When two souls are in the same body, there will be a situation where they fight for control.
In order to facilitate the action, Shi Sui took the initiative most of the time.
But from this moment on, she also retreated behind the scenes and temporarily handed her body back to the original owner.
After all, it is a reunion of brother and sister.
Qiuqiu had endured physical and mental abuse in the space peacekeeping force base for the past 12 years, and had experienced loneliness as a child and a young girl without any relatives... All the complex emotions that had been dormant for a long time were released after hearing Duen's affectionate "Qiuqiu".
She was so excited and thrilled that tears were about to burst out of her eyes.
There was more than one person outside the cave, and they were all wearing full protective clothing, so it was impossible to tell what they looked like.
But Qiuqiu ran straight towards a tall and burly man walking in front.
Even though Duen is already a 28-year-old adult, he still retains a bit of the boyish voice he had when he was 16, and when he calls "Qiuqiu", there is a unique ending tone.
Qiuqiu could recognize it the moment she heard it.
The guards following Duan lost their composure and stood in front of him to protect the city lord, pointing their guns at her.
“Hey hey hey!! Who are you?! Back off immediately!!”
The other party's vigilance is too strong.
So Shisui took the initiative to take off the protective mask and reveal her face.
From the age of 4 to 16, although his appearance changed a lot, it was impossible for Duen, as his older brother, to not recognize him.
Sure enough, after staring intently at his sister's face for two seconds, Du En immediately ordered his men to lower their weapons, took two steps forward, and said anxiously, "What are you doing?! This is still a high-radiation danger zone, put your protective masks back on!"
…
The patrol's burrow was little more than a sentry post.
The real settlement is in a deeper and more hidden place.
Under Duane's guidance, Shisui circled the seemingly messy underground for many times and took three elevators disguised as abandoned machinery before finally getting a glimpse of the true appearance of the underground city.
500 meters below, they built an area that can shield 99% of radiation - they call it a safe zone.
Hundreds or even thousands of people live here.
No wonder Duen went to the patrol team's cave in person first and confirmed his sister's identity on the spot before he felt comfortable bringing her here.
Tokiho could also understand the patrol members' sensitive vigilance.
This is a major matter concerning the safety of all residents.
If someone with bad intentions sneaks in, everyone will be wiped out.
This made Shisui more concerned about the truth of that year.
Even Vincent, a soldier who had once charged on the front lines, was extremely confident that no one would survive the explosion. Yet, so many people survived... There must be some inside story!
But Qiuqiu obviously didn't have as meticulous a mind as Shisui.
She was immersed in the joy of finally reuniting with her brother.
A 16-year-old girl, who has long lacked the affection of her family, naturally wants to be closer to her brother who is 12 years older than her.
...There is a buffer zone between the danger zone and the safe zone.
Everyone here has to undergo a comprehensive cleaning with radiation removal equipment, and finally confirm that the radiation concentration on their bodies is within the standard before they can take off their protective clothing and officially enter the safe zone.
drop--
"Test passed!"
Shisui was the first to be measured, and when the result was correct, she took off the armor she was wearing one by one.
But then Duan handed her a thinner radiation-proof jumpsuit.
"Qiuqiu, you should change into this, it's safer."
Someone in the team explained that the safe zone is not 100% safe either. The concentration standard here is formulated for dungeon dwellers who have lived here for a long time and have developed a certain resistance.
For outsiders, it's not the same.
"Okay, I'll listen to you, brother!"
After Qiuqiu put on her clothes obediently, she followed Duen closely like a little tail.
After all the accompanying personnel changed into ordinary clothes, Shisui discovered that it turned out that everyone had health problems... to varying degrees.
Although they did not have obvious deformities like the Third Hand Granny, some people had tumors on their faces, some had obvious spots on their skin, some had buck teeth and cracks at the corners of their mouths... They were obviously affected by radiation.
Doon is no exception.
He has short, curly brown hair, and his skin is extremely white due to living underground for a long time, but his face has clear lines, and his eyes and nose reveal a toughness and determination, which gives him the steady charm of a mature man.
Only after the heavy protective clothing was removed did Shisui discover that the muscles in Duan's right arm had grown abnormally, swollen like a ball, and his body looked quite disproportionate.
"Qiuqiu, come inside and take a rest first, then we can talk slowly."
Du En's unusual arm muscles coupled with his boyish voice... well, Tokiho felt that it was a bit out of place.
The group officially entered the safe zone.
The environment is not good, and it certainly cannot be compared with the advanced bases of the space peacekeeping forces, but it is already remarkable that it can maintain the daily lives of so many people while concealing their presence.
The overall planning is good, and you can see everyone busy in an orderly manner.
If they had not been brought in, who would have believed that there was a new world hidden under the abandoned underground city on the desolate asteroid WT27.
Dunn said to his subordinates, "You all should go about your own business. Thank you for your hard work."
The entourage discussed in low voices as they dispersed.
"Why haven't I heard before that the city lord has a sister?"
"Yeah, this is really the first time I've heard of this..."
"And there seems to be quite a big age difference."
Shisui could hear these gossips, and of course Duen could hear them too.
But he didn't explain anything, just led his sister into his private living room.
Tokiho gave up control of her body, but she kept observing.
She always felt that her brother, Du En, seemed a little too cold towards his sister after a long absence...
