"But they hid the food in the space. If they refuse to hand it over, we can't do anything to them!" Someone said worriedly.
"Yes, if these space users don't want to give out their stuff, we can't do anything to them!"
This reminded the space users. Yes, they have space. They can hide in the space!
A few people looked at each other and were about to dive into the space when someone shouted, "Catch them. Don't let them hide in the space!"
Several people who reacted quickly rushed up and caught the space users. Only one space user with the fastest reaction successfully hid in the space. These space users can only enter their own space. Once their bodies are trapped, they cannot enter the space. This is a big disadvantage of space users.
"You see, they are guilty of being thieves. The food must be on them. We caught them. We are not afraid that they will not hand over the food. If they don't hand it over, we will beat them until they hand it over!"
As he said, someone punched the space users.
The force value of space users is very low. Because they have space to protect themselves and can teleport, the force value is not very useful to them.
After being punched a few times, the space users were scared pale.
A timid space psychic said tremblingly: "We really didn't pack your food. The food was taken away by other high-level space psychics. If you don't believe me, you can ask Base Commander Li. She was watching us when we were loading the food just now."
"Yes, Base Commander, didn't she promise us that she wouldn't sell the food? Why did she lie to us? Why did she sell our food without permission?" someone in the crowd said angrily.
"Let's go and ask the base commander for clarification. Does she not care about the lives of the people in our base?"
"Let's go and ask the base commander for an explanation!"
The angry crowd grabbed those space power users and rushed to the core area.
Li Xue had already received the news and was rushing here. Behind her, Xiangdong and several other ministers followed.
The two groups met on the way.
On the civilian side, a strong man came out and asked Li Xue in a rough voice: "Base Commander, didn't you promise us in the afternoon that you would not sell us food? Why did you sell the food in the blink of an eye? Do you still care about us civilians if you do this?"
"Yes, base commander, these food are the foundation of our survival. Isn't it too much for you to do this!"
Li Xue looked at these angry people and said loudly: "I'm sorry, I deceived everyone."
"Base Commander, why did you do this?"
"We trust you so much, why do you want to do such a dishonest thing?"
Li Xue was a little flustered by the accusations. "Everyone calm down first. I was forced to sell these grains today. I know how important these grains are to our base. But the situation at H base is very critical now. If we don't help them, millions of people will starve to death because of lack of food. Thank you, base commander, for sending people to buy food without even saying hello. If I don't sell any, I'm afraid that in a few days, our base will be crowded with survivors from H base."
"The people at H base are so shameless. Why do they treat us like this? Is it because we are a small base?"
"Let them come. As long as they dare to come, we will dare to kill them!"
Li Xue tried to comfort them: "Don't get excited, I promise you that I will never sell food to H base privately again. This time, just think of it as us doing a good deed. I have asked people to carefully calculate the amount of food. As long as we save it, we should be able to survive for two or three months. No matter how much it rains, it will stop one day. If the heavy rain doesn't stop in two or three months, I'm afraid that these foods will not be of much use."
The crowd was silent for a long time. After a while, someone hesitated and said: "Since the base commander said so, let these people go this time. In the future, if you dare to attack our base again, you will never come back."
"Let them go back and tell that Xie that our Hope Base doesn't owe you H Base anything. Take your crystal cores and go away. Don't come to buy food anymore. Even if we have it, we won't sell it to you!"
"If people from H Base dare to come, we will starve them to death. We will never let them set foot in the gate of Hope Base."
Seeing that everyone had given in, Li Xue bowed solemnly to the crowd: "I'm sorry, I broke my promise to you all today. I hope you can forgive me this time."
No one in the crowd said anything.
After a long while, someone said, "Base Commander, for the sake of safety, I think we should select a group of people from the base population to supervise our granary. From now on, you can no longer move the granary without the permission of all the people in the base."
"Yes, this is a good idea."
Li Xue hesitated for a long time, took a deep breath, and nodded slowly: "Okay, I accept. Now, can we let them go?"
The people slowly stepped back and made way.
Li Xue said to the space psychics who were already paralyzed on the ground: "Let's go, I will personally take you out of the base."
The space psychics struggled to get up from the ground, stumbled and followed Li Xue to the gate of the base.
Those space psychics who had successfully escaped from the Hope Base were standing at the gate, anxious like ants on a hot pot. Several of their companions had been captured, and if they left like this, they would not be able to report back.
Just when they were anxious and didn't know what to do, they saw a light coming from the front.
Several people were so scared that they hurried to run.
"Don't run, it's us." Li Xue asked a space psychic to shout at the gate.
When the space psychics at the gate heard the voice, they took a closer look and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Are you all right?" The leading space psychic hurried over and saw that several people were in a state of panic. He asked, "How did it become like this?"
The space psychic who was asked said, "Oh, don't mention it. If it weren't for Base Commander Li, I'm afraid we would have to die here today. Those people are really too..." He didn't finish his words. After all, it was not good to say that to the people of Hope Base in front of Li Xue.
The leading space psychic naturally heard it and quickly said to Li Xue, "Base Commander Li, thank you so much."
Li Xue waved her hand with a bad face, "No, you can go back and tell the Hope Base. I'm afraid I can't help you in the future."
