Before getting on the bus, she opened the spherical safe house in the canvas bag. After the space distorted, the children crawled out of the opening.
"It's so comfortable inside, but it's so boring."
"Yes! If everyone were here, I could stay for a very long time."
Qingwu and Feitao were always the most enthusiastic, vying to describe to her what it felt like inside.
The canvas bag couldn't fit the two kids, so Jiang Shuyin quickly got into the car and let the children out.
Noticing Xie Yin's gaze lingering on Lan Han and ICE, she explained, "They were just born."
Xie Yin nodded and looked up at her: "Your body is very weak, you should rest for a while."
I'll drive straight to the central base and call you when I get there.
Jiang Shuyin nodded: "Okay."
Xie Yin is a trustworthy partner, but sometimes he's too good to her, which makes people overthink things.
Her mental state was already in a red alert state, and she fell asleep almost as soon as she closed her eyes. Xie Yin could feel the energy fluctuations emanating from her body; her cells were abnormally active and excited, releasing a large amount of heat energy.
Soon, the temperature inside the car rose by 3 degrees Celsius compared to the outside temperature.
Xie Yin glanced at her earlobe, his eyes flickering slightly.
It remains unchanged, still round and white.
Were you scammed?
The bracelet received a message from Minister Hu.
—Where are we? We're departing from the central base at 8 PM tonight and are expected to arrive in Country M around 10 AM tomorrow.
Xie Yin replied: On my way, will arrive before 8 o'clock.
The message was sent, and without pausing, the engine was started, geared up, and headed towards the highway entrance. What would normally be an eleven-hour journey was completed in half the time.
In the past few days, he has also been busy. He ordered some parts from the factory and modified the car into a jet-powered vehicle. The power source is a military version of the Spy series turbofan engine. After improving stability and durability, it can be used for transportation and has a top speed of 1370 km/h.
Unfortunately, there were many vehicles on the highway, so the speed could not be fully utilized.
The intermittent thrust of the vehicle made Heimei's face turn pale, and she kept applying anti-nausea and anti-vomiting sprays to herself and her younger brother ICE.
At 5:36 PM, a dark figure flashed rapidly onto the only road leading to the central base. After a traffic jam appeared ahead, it slowly slowed down and revealed its true form.
"Holy crap! A base model Volkswagen can go this fast? How much did this guy spend on modifications?"
"That's an exaggeration, even the high-speed rail isn't as fast as it."
"He's probably here for an international mission too. Just based on his driving skills, I've already reserved him as a teammate."
Superpowered individuals from all over the country gathered on the way to the central base. Time was of the essence, and everyone had rushed over with all their might. Unexpectedly, the registration staff at the central base were temporarily infected by a mutant, which also affected the two people working with him, causing a significant delay.
Xie Yin had no intention of going down, but the person came knocking on his window.
"Shh-"
The moment the window rolled down, the person outside was silenced, glancing at the passenger seat. There was a woman there too. He understood.
"Is your girlfriend asleep? Come down and talk to her," the man said in a low voice.
Xie Yin removed the few lumps that were nestled in his arms and got out of the car.
"Brother, there are only two of you. Haven't you thought about joining another team? You know, overseas, we not only have to guard against monsters, but also be careful of some crazy foreigners. It's safer to have more people to look after each other."
Zhou Cheng reasoned with Xie Yin, but when Xie Yin didn't react, he appealed to his emotions: "No matter how capable you are, there are things you can't cover. There are many of us, so we can all help keep an eye on things. My girlfriend can also chat with her and relax. What do you think?"
Seeing the emotion on Xie Yin's face, Zhou Cheng smiled.
Xie Yin: "I need to ask her opinion."
Zhou Cheng's smile froze: So you're a henpecked husband? I really misjudged you. A tall man, 1.9 meters tall, who can punch a whiny guy in one punch, is actually afraid of his girlfriend!
This is outrageous!
Zhou Cheng forced a smile: "Then when she wakes up, call me and add her bracelet number."
After verification, Zhou Cheng returned to the team.
The men all asked, "So? What kind of superpowers does he have? Did he modify the car himself?...?"
Zhou Cheng buried his face in his girlfriend's arms: "Waaah, I didn't ask any of these questions. I just asked him if he wanted to come. I didn't expect him to be such a henpecked husband. He can't even make his own decisions and has to wait for his girlfriend to wake up before we can talk about it."
"Useless!" the four exclaimed in unison.
Hearing this, Cui Xinyue became even more eager for the couple to join.
Along the way, she encountered partners who were strong men and weak women. Even the more capable women insisted on having a rope around their necks and being led by men, which made her furious and left her with a feeling of pent-up resentment.
They waited until 7 p.m., and the line slowly moved to the entrance of the base.
When it was almost their turn to register, Xie Yin woke Jiang Shuyin up: "Show the QR code in the personal center of the bracelet."
Jiang Shuyin got out of the car, her legs still weak. Her newly reconstructed limbs were somewhat out of control; when relaxed, they were as soft as noodles, and when strained, they felt like they could kick a cow.
Seeing her tired face, the staff kindly said, "Young people should take care to rest."
Jiang Shuyin: ? ? ?
There must be some ambiguity in this statement.
After the two registered, they opened the vehicle and asked someone to check if they were carrying any prohibited items. Xie Yin had told the children in advance to pretend to be wooden figures.
The staff mainly used equipment to scan, and only glanced at the few lumps in the car and the little boy and girl without looking closely: "Okay, go in. License plate number X3464."
Zhou Cheng and Cui Xinyue waited at the garage entrance. They led Xie Yin to park the car next to them and continued their previous conversation. Zhou Cheng briefly reiterated the topic to Jiang Shu and then asked her, "Do you agree?"
To be honest, her last team-up experience wasn't great, which made her uninterested in teaming up for quests.
Cui Xinyue noticed this and extended her hand to introduce herself: "Cui Xinyue, I have wood-type superpowers, the kind with pretty good attack power. If you join us, I can share my treasured 2GB of romance novels with you."
Zhou Cheng touched his nose. What kind of nonsense is this? No wonder they wouldn't agree.
Jiang Shuyin: "Romance novels?"
Cui Xinyue: "Yeah, it's about gay relationships between men, including BDSM, domination, props, and pure love."
Zhou Cheng's eyes widened, and his gaze toward his girlfriend was filled with 'Don't be so outrageous.'
Jiang Shuyin: "...Okay, I'll join."
Zhou Cheng: ?
Xie Yin: ?
