Seeing that Grandpa Lu had already said that, Ye Yunxi didn't say anything more.
After chatting with the Lu family for a while, her phone rang.
Ye Yunxi took out her phone and saw that it was Gu Qingqing calling.
She told Grandpa Lu and the others, then went outside to answer the phone.
Gu Qingqing's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Sister Yunxi, are you alright? Xuanyu just told us that the polar night has arrived, and we should be on guard and watch out for people taking advantage of the polar night to rob us."
"I'm fine here. I'm at the Lu family's place now. Xuan Yu is right. It's the polar night now. We need to protect ourselves, in case someone comes to rob us."
"Okay, we understand. You all need to be careful too."
Ye Yunxi thought for a moment, then asked for her opinion.
"Qingqing, why don't you come and stay at our house? If that's not possible, there are villas around here. We can rent one and all the families can stay together, which would be more convenient."
Gu Qingqing did not directly reject Ye Yunxi's kindness.
"Sister Yunxi, I'm not sure myself. Let's discuss it first, and I'll get back to you later."
Ye Yunxi didn't press her. "Okay, you two discuss it first."
After hanging up the phone with Gu Qingqing, Ye Yunxi checked the time and realized it was getting late. She then made a detour back to the Lu family home to say goodbye.
"Grandpa Lu, Uncle, Aunt, Hengyi, it's getting late. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now."
Grandpa Lu and the others did not try to stop Ye Yunxi; they knew she still had some things to do.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Ye Yunxi left the Lu family home and headed towards her own.
I wondered how things were going with Fu Heng and the others. Instinctively, I took out my phone to call him, but then I remembered that I could use my heart to chat with him.
They haven't tried it yet, after all, they're together every day.
Ye Yunxi tried to find Fu Heng using her inner voice.
"Xixi, what's wrong?"
Fu Heng's voice appeared in her mind, and she was overjoyed. She quickly replied to him.
"Nothing much, I just wanted to ask how things are going on your end? I just came from the Lu family."
“I just finished here and was about to come find you. The Fifth Base asked me to go to their place and asked me to bring you along. I was just about to look for you when you contacted me first. I’ll go pick you up now.”
Ye Yunxi thought for a moment, wondering what this Base Chief Wu wanted from them. Oh well, she'd find out when they got back.
"Okay, come on over, I'll wait for you at the intersection of the villa area."
Ye Yunxi walked to the intersection and waited for about ten minutes before Fu Heng drove up.
She got into the car and asked Fu Heng.
"Aheng, do you know why Commander Wu wants to see us?"
"I'm not quite sure, but judging from Uncle Zhou's tone, there was a hint of excitement and anticipation."
"Alright, let's go check it out first. Where are Xuan Yu and Min Yu?"
"Xuanyu and Minyu were also called over by Commander Wu."
Ye Yunxi looked puzzled, but didn't ask anything.
A dozen minutes later, they arrived at the base building. Fu Heng parked the car, and the two of them, along with the dog and the wolf, got out. Just as they were about to enter the base building, they heard someone calling them.
"Sister Yunxi, Brother Heng."
"Boss, sister-in-law!"
Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng turned around and saw Minyu and Xuanyu.
"I thought you went in first."
"No, we don't know what the base chief of Blue Star wants to see us about. We'll just wait here for you to arrive so we can go in together."
"Then let's go."
The four of them entered the base building and headed to the base commander's office on the second floor.
Zhou Yuan happened to come down to pick them up, and they unexpectedly met at the stairwell. The group greeted each other.
"Hello, Uncle Zhou."
Zhou Yuan greeted them with a smile.
"Hello, please follow me."
Ye Yunxi and the others followed Zhou Yuan upstairs. She wanted to ask Zhou Yuan, but in the end she didn't.
Upon arriving at the base office, Zhou Yuan knocked on the door and went inside.
When Chief Wu saw Ye Yunxi and the others arrive, he greeted them with a smile.
"Come, come, sit down quickly."
Ye Yunxi and the others walked to the sofa and sat down, looking at the base leader with puzzled expressions.
Commander Wu sat there, smiling as he sized them up, a sight that sent chills down their spines.
Ye Yunxi couldn't help but ask, "Base Commander, what's the matter? Just say it. Don't just smile at us like that."
Commander Wu didn't take Ye Yunxi's words to heart. He coughed lightly and said...
"Yunxi, Xiao Fu, there's something I want to tell you. Last night, Xiao Zhou and I were still organizing documents in the office when a man, we don't know where he came from, told us..."
Let me hand you over, and I'll guarantee the safety of our base. If I don't, our base may be in danger.
I asked him who he was, but he didn't answer. He just asked me if I was going to hand you over or not. He said he definitely wouldn't hand you over someone of unknown origin. But judging from his expression, it seemed like he had a grudge against you.
When Fu Heng and the others heard what the base commander said, their expressions changed. Fu Heng asked the base commander a question.
"Do you know what that person looks like?"
The base commander recalled what happened last night and spoke to the people.
"He was dressed in all black, with silver hair, and he appeared and disappeared mysteriously, making him unpredictable."
Upon hearing this news, Fu Heng became even more certain that it was Yan Luo! He went to find the base commander and demanded that they be handed over.
Ye Yunxi asked the base commander, "What else did he say to you?"
"After I refused to hand you over, that man told me something about you."
Ye Yunxi was a little nervous. "What is it?"
"He said there's a secret about you that no one else knows. He said that Xiao Fu, Xuan Yu, and Min Yu aren't from this planet, especially Xiao Fu and Min Yu, that you're from some other planet. And Yun Xi, he said you have a spatial ability or something."
When Ye Yunxi and the others heard this, they all looked at Base Chief Wu with wary expressions.
Commander Wu could see that Ye Yunxi and the others were nervous, and then he spoke.
"Since you came to our base these past few years, whether it's going out on missions, fighting against the mutated animals in the base, or predicting the next natural disaster, you've handled everything with ease and been able to resolve each one."
I've been curious about you guys from the very beginning. Of course, I've also investigated you guys, but I couldn't find any information about you guys except for Yunxi, Xiao Fu, and the others.
But you did nothing bad for the base; on the contrary, the natural disasters you foresaw reduced the losses for the people at the base.
When Chief Wu finished speaking, he paused for a moment to observe Ye Yunxi and the others' expressions.
Instead of their usual smiling faces, they looked at him with serious, wary, and murderous intent.
He sighed and said, "But don't worry, now that I know about this, I won't do anything to harm you. I understand what you've been doing these past few years. Besides, you haven't done anything bad, and you've been quite friendly to me and the people at the base."
