Leng Si pinched Chu Mu's soft fingers and said, "Remember, I haven't forgotten. I'll fulfill my promise once we enter the inner city."
Because of Leng Si's promise, Chu Mu began to look at the sky outside the door and wait for dark.
Even more anxious than him was the survivor who had just been rescued in the hospital.
They all agreed that as long as they hid within the black walls of the inner city, they would be absolutely safe.
As soon as it got dark, Ms. Hu set off the signal fireworks for communication in front of everyone's expectant gaze.
"Just wait patiently. Someone will definitely come to pick us up in an hour at most."
Before this, Ms. Hu had been hiding in the basement of the hospital. There were distorted creatures wandering not far away, and she never had the chance to come out and set off fireworks.
Now the signal representing the identity information was released, and in less than half an hour, the roar of vehicles was heard outside the hospital.
"Oh my goodness." The fat man looked at the string of tank-like armored vehicles, drooling enviously, "This port city is bursting with equipment."
The leader of the rescue team was a young man about the same age as Leng Si. He was tall and strong, good-looking, and very popular among the nurses.
Chu Mu heard them calling him Major General.
"The government hasn't been abolished yet, right? You're going to proclaim yourself a general?" Chu Mu stood on tiptoe and spoke into Leng Si's ear.
Leng Si's lips brushed across Chu Mu's forehead: "Troubled times will magnify ambitions."
The two of them were in a very intimate posture, and anyone with eyes could see their relationship.
The Major General came over, first sized up Leng Si, then kept his eyes on Chu Mu. "Let's get to know each other. I'm the younger brother of the Tomorrow Base City Lord. You can call me Major General like everyone else."
Okay, Chu Mu took back his previous thought that the other party was a little handsome.
This is purely a narcissist.
"What's your name? Let's be friends. I'll make arrangements for you once we get into the inner city."
He's also a PLUS version of a narcissist.
“Shaodong, this is Mr. Leng from Haicheng,” Ms. Hu pulled the narcissist.
The narcissist nudged his lips and said, "I didn't ask him, I asked him."
The first one he refers to is Leng Si, and the second one he refers to is naturally Chu Mu.
Ms. Hu looked a little embarrassed: "This is Mr. Leng's lover."
She specifically emphasized the word "lover".
The young general didn't care: "Married? It doesn't matter if you are married, I..."
boom!
The flame started from the tips of the young general's fingers as he stretched out to touch Chu Mu.
“Ahhh!!”
The narcissist swung his hands madly, but the flames seemed to have consciousness and jumped up along his arms.
"Captain Leng, please show some mercy." A plain-looking old man in gray, wearing sunglasses, stepped forward and bowed to Leng Si. "This is City Lord Shao's younger brother."
It turns out that he is a royal relative of the local emperor, no wonder he is so arrogant.
Chu Mu held Leng Si back: "Forget it."
“…” Leng Si snapped his fingers, and the purple flame that had not been extinguished before disappeared in an instant.
"You damn thing! I'm going to kill you!"
"Shaodong!" The old man in gray shouted softly, and the narcissist with a furious face wilted as if he was splashed with a basin of water.
"I'm sorry, Captain Leng," the old man apologized to Leng Si again, "It's getting late, everyone please follow me into the base."
The base the old man mentioned is actually the inner city.
The black wall, which originally had no cracks, now had an arched hole opened in a very natural way. It was very bright behind the hole, forming a sharp contrast with the dark and silent outer city.
A team of people wearing white protective suits stood on both sides of the cave entrance, holding detectors to measure the distortion values for people entering the city.
Chu Mu discovered that in addition to them, there was also a large convoy of vehicles undergoing testing.
It was the group of Chu Tian and Zhang San.
"Captain Leng," the gray-robed old man said with an official smile, "Director Zhang and Expert Chu from the Human Resources and Social Security Bureau are here too. Are you two traveling together?"
"I'd like to," Zhang San walked over with a smile, "but unfortunately Captain Leng looks down on me at the Human Security Bureau and has already resigned."
"Oh, I see," the gray-robed old man said with a bit of worry, "I heard Captain Leng's distortion value is quite high. Every time he goes on a mission, he has to be accompanied by the Human Security Bureau guards. Our base has a rule that those with a distortion value over 50% are not allowed to enter the city."
Ms. Hu seemed a little embarrassed: "Uncle Meng, Captain Leng saved us, can you please be flexible?"
"No!" The narcissist, whose arms were wrapped like mummies, seized the opportunity and said arrogantly, "The base has its own rules. We can't break them just because of one person."
"Let's put it this way," the gray-robed old man seemed to be trying to smooth things over. "Captain Leng has been at PICC for so long without any problems. That means PICC must have a way to suppress him, right?"
Zhang San smiled crookedly: "He doesn't think highly of our medical skills."
"Uh..." The gray-clothed old man pondered for a moment, "Then I'd better go back and talk to the city lord and see what to do."
"No need," Leng Si said calmly, "We are not going into the city."
"How can we not go into the city?" Ms. Hu's voice was extremely nervous. "The next round of earthquakes is about to begin. You are already at high risk. If you are affected by the pollutants underground, it will be disastrous!"
Chu Mu's gaze shifted to Leng Si's neck.
There is a thin black iron ring there.
The fat man said that this is a self-destruct device, and it will explode once the distortion value breaks the line.
"Xiao Mu," Chu Tian walked over, "How about you try to persuade Captain Leng? Let him admit his mistake to Director Zhang, and we can still be a family."
Chu Mu looked directly into Chu Tian's eyes and slowly squeezed out three words -
"You're dreaming."
The muscles beside Chu Tian's cheeks trembled: "Xiao Mu, don't be willful. This is a matter of life and death. This is not the time for you to be petty."
He adjusted his glasses again and looked at the people behind Leng Si: "You followed Captain Leng through life and death, why don't you try to persuade him?"
"Brother Leng," Fatty Yuan hesitated, "Although I don't know what the ground fissure is about, but if it's really as Ms. Hu said, you—"
"He'll be fine," Chu Mu smiled brightly. "Chu Tian, you clearly know that he won't lose control as long as I'm here, yet you deliberately say that. What, Director Zhang doesn't know about my distortion ability yet?"
Zhang San was stunned: "You? You are also deformed?"
"Chu Mu!" Chu Tian growled through gritted teeth.
Chu Mu is his ultimate trump card. Of course, he won’t tell anyone until he has complete control over him.
Chu Tian's behavior aroused Zhang San's suspicion: "Expert Chu, you've always said you wanted to find your sister. Do you have other motives?"
Chu Tian gave a stiff laugh. "You only have a few medical skills, but you think you're a living god. You really don't know your place."
Zhang San naturally didn't believe it.
Besides him, there were many other people at the scene who also didn't believe it.
"This..." The old man in gray thought about how to address him.
"Mrs. Leng." Chu Mu replied with a smile.
"Okay, Madam Leng, may I ask what ability you have awakened that can suppress Mr. Leng's distortion?"
A bunch of eyes looked over at the same time.
