Chapter 186 Coming Soon
"Oh, thank you."
Qiao Lan couldn't remember who the other person was for a moment, so he smiled and politely thanked the other person for telling him.
She turned around and prepared to go back to her room, but after taking two steps, the girl called her.
"Qiao Lan, aren't you going to help them?"
Um?
"What is today's practical project? Is it dangerous?" Qiao Lan asked with concern.
The base's combat training typically involves clearing out mutant beasts or suppressing small groups of criminals in various locations throughout the city. The level of risk is kept manageable, yet still somewhat strenuous, to hone the participants' combat capabilities. Experts like Ye Qi rotate with the team to ensure safety during the training. However, combat always presents unexpected situations, and casualties are inevitable.
If it is a more dangerous project, Qiao Lan is willing to help out.
"Today's awakened training was originally scheduled to go to Hongqi West Street to clear out mutant beasts, but it was temporarily changed to Guangming Middle Road. I heard that there were two other groups fighting there." The other party replied.
Qiao Lan became even more concerned when he heard this and asked, "Do you know who is fighting?"
If it is a fight between strong people, it would be dangerous indeed.
She was ready to rush over to help.
The girl replied, “I don’t know.”
"Huh? You don't know who's fighting?"
"Yes, I just heard their pre-departure training speech when I was passing by, and I learned that the training location had been changed."
“…”
You don't know anything and yet you ask me to help you...Qiao Lan thought this girl was weird.
To be safe, she picked up the intercom and asked a question on the internal public channel.
The one who answered was Lao Song.
"It's okay, Miss Qiao. The captain has taken people to watch the battle. I heard that a small team from the Mother Goddess base is fighting others over there. No strong people or mechanical creatures have been found yet."
"Okay, call us anytime if you need support." Qiao Lan put away the walkie-talkie.
She would not interfere with the daily training at the base, and it would not be too late to go there if there was any danger.
Looking at the girl, Qiao Lan said goodbye perfunctorily: "Then you go ahead and do your work. I'll go back to my room to have dinner."
"Please wait a moment!"
The girl took two quick steps and stood in front of Qiao Lan.
A yellow, thin little face, with a stern look and tightly drawn lips.
She stared at Qiao Lan, tears welling up in her eyes. She looked a little... aggrieved?
Qiao Lan was very puzzled. After thinking about it again and again, he didn't remember provoking the other party.
"Who are you?" In fact, she couldn't even remember who the other person was. She just had a vague impression that she seemed to have seen this person somewhere.
"I'm Ye Qi's sister." The other person bit her lip. "Do you really not know me, or are you pretending to be confused?"
Qiao Lan: "Then maybe I'm just pretending to be confused and don't want to talk to you."
She finally remembered that Ye Qi had such a sister. They were not related by blood, and she didn't know if she was an old acquaintance. She had met her last time when she came here to join forces to hunt down the thug "Wang".
Cha Cha even sent Haozi to deliver a letter to talk about this person. Yin Wanying also mentioned him, but Qiao Lan didn't take it seriously and really had no impression of him.
But the other party's attitude made her feel malicious and she wanted to deliberately anger the other party.
"Girl, can you please not block my way?" Qiao Lan crossed her arms. "If you have something to say, please say it. If not, can you please move aside? I don't seem to have any interest in chatting with you, not at all."
Zhan Qing blinked, and two lines of tears fell down her blue eye sockets.
"I never thought that my brother, who had been single for many years and had been pursued by so many outstanding and beautiful women, would be captured by you in the end."
"Oh, that must be because I'm better and more beautiful."
"You...you are so shameless."
"Look carefully, am I thick-skinned? I have a lot of flesh." Qiao Lan pulled her face and said proudly.
Zhan Qing was furious.
He was stunned for a few seconds, took a deep breath, and clenched his fists, as if he had made a great decision.
She took a step forward, looked Qiao Lan in the eye, and pleaded tearfully, "Please let my brother go, okay? He's too busy, too tired, and too hard-working. You're not the right woman for him. You're not gentle, elegant, mature, or sensible enough. If you could just step back and be a good friend, I wouldn't have to embarrass you like this..."
Qiao Lan touched her chest and nodded sincerely: "Thank you for your advice - I love him very much, so I am willing to let him go and fly to a happier place. It's not easy for two people on Earth to meet. Even if I can't be his lover, I am still grateful."
Zhan Qing: “…”
Qiao Lan: "Thank you, I've heard this song before."
"So you agreed?"
"I'm just checking the lyrics with you. I'm busy eating breakfast. Let's go, Bai~~"
Qiao Lan dodged and passed the other person with his round body, reaching the other side of the corridor and staggering back to the room.
She can still remember such old lyrics, and she is really proud of herself.
Zhan Qing chased to the door and shouted excitedly.
"Qiao Lan! My brother doesn't need love, do you understand? He's the leader of the base. Even if he needs a woman, she should be gentle and dignified, not a rude and violent fat woman..."
Qiao Lan opened the door and reappeared, raising his gun and pointing it at her.
"You say that I'm fat again?"
Zhan Qing closed her mouth and instantly felt enveloped by a huge murderous intent.
It's like a rabbit about to be killed by an eagle or a deer about to be bitten to death by a lion. The hair on your body stands on end and you want to run away desperately.
Qiao Lan put away his gun and closed the door.
There was a slam of the door.
This made Zhan Qing shiver in the corridor.
With a flutter, a budgie quietly took off from the shadows at the end of the corridor and flew away silently.
"It's completely incomprehensible."
Qiao Lan had breakfast in the room, packed up and went out again, but Zhan Qing was no longer outside the door.
She immediately put the little episode behind her.
She is not an idle person who eats and sleeps all the time. She is very busy. She actively trains and improves herself every day, goes out to find supplies, and has various miscellaneous problems to deal with. So she completely disdains such boring little things as "my boyfriend's sister came to persuade me not to be her sister-in-law".
Carrying a gun and a backpack of supplies, she left the base and prepared to carry out today's field training and supply collection in the city.
I had just walked a kilometer or two and shot down a few mutant dogs running around the street when the communicator vibrated.
It was Ye Qi who contacted me.
"Two hundred meters east of the ruins of the Commercial Building on Guangming Middle Road, come quickly! There's a warehouse full of frozen pork!"
This is the exclusive communication frequency band for two people.
Qiao Lan perked up when he heard that: "I'll be there soon!"
Ye Xiaoqi discovered a large amount of supplies and asked her to use the space to collect them!
She looked around, ran to a secluded corner of an abandoned building, and quietly took out an off-road mountain bike.
The modified bicycle comes with battery power assistance, so it can be pedaled at speeds comparable to motorcycles without much effort.
Qiao Lan sped past the obstacle-filled city roads and soon rode more than ten kilometers to the designated location.
Ye Qi was leading the human cat on the roof of an abandoned building. When Qiao Lan arrived, he first held her hand tightly.
He whispered, "Sister, this time it all depends on you."
