Chapter 54 53. Bedside Vase
The alien plant defense army arrived at Rose Corridor Area 37 five minutes later.
It was just after nightfall, and the roar of cars was coming closer and closer. The silent and solemn atmosphere became more tense as the conversation was suppressed to almost inaudible.
The military boots stepped silently on the still damp ground, until the bright lights shone past and the quiet figures in the Rose Corridor were frozen, and only then did they relax their hiding state.
But the nearest mutation value detector still flashes a dangerous red light.
Zhou Qian raised his hand, and someone beside him held up an instrument: "The mutation value jumped 12 points in one minute. It should be very unhappy."
But there is no reason.
Everyone present kept repeating these words in their minds.
Because of its stable mood, the Rose Corridor has now cooperated with the defense forces. The continuous rain with strong pollution value did not make it so unhappy, so how could it be unhappy now that the rain has stopped——
"Someone got into a fight nearby? Or..."
Saw blood.
Everyone's heart trembled, and Zhou Qian's expression was even more serious and tense, with a slight worry in his eyes - he remembered that Huaiyu lived in District 37.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated: "Go and take a look."
However, as the team got closer and closer to the Rose Corridor, the area illuminated by the lights became wider and wider, and everything that appeared before their eyes made everyone silent again.
At once……
How could anyone build a house so close to the Rose Corridor? Although the house was not built neatly, they could find many problems with it. But no matter how many problems there were, it was still a house that could truly shelter from the wind and rain.
Everyone was alert and moved carefully towards the tree house in front.
The bright light shone directly into the room, and I saw a particularly dreamy string of wisteria flowers inserted on the door, swaying slightly in the night breeze, making it seem as if the owner of the house was very much in the mood for life.
The yellow hay curtains underneath are woven in a detailed and neat way, and they look like they know how to live well.
"Captain brother!"
The yellow door curtain moved, and a small head popped out from inside.
The little girl's face was still a little pale, as if she was frightened.
Zhou Qian relaxed. How could he not be frightened? In the middle of the night, first there was the warning from the Rose Corridor, and then there was this tree house that appeared so close to him out of nowhere...
etc!
He was dumbfounded: "Huai Yu?! Why are you living here?!"
"This is my home!"
Huaiyu walked out from behind the door curtain, his hands still stained with mud, and pointed at the tree house behind him: "Look! The waterproof tarpaulin was given by you, brother!"
"I didn't give it to you! You exchanged it for something yourself." Zhou Qian retorted subconsciously, and then became even more stunned.
Well, he knew that this girl was actually quite capable of living alone, and he also knew that she had found a way to build a house. He also knew that her life was getting better and better. He even saw her nearby during the last rainstorm...
But he had never thought that this house was not even 20 meters away from the Rose Corridor! 20 meters! Their camp in Area 69 did not dare to be so close to the Rose Corridor! Zhou Qian took a deep breath. Huai Yu was present at the Rose Corridor's two consecutive movements. His expression gradually calmed down, and he said seriously at this moment:
"Huai Yu, I want to ask you a few questions now."
Huaiyu's face was a little pale, and her thin body seemed to be a little shaky in the night wind, but she still nodded:
"Okay, Captain Zhou. Just ask."
"Why do you live so close to the Rose Corridor? I remember warning you several times."
Huaiyu hesitated: "I live alone, so I'm not likely to fight. If I live closer to it, others won't dare to come over, and I'll feel safer."
"and……"
She slowly raised her hand: "I have a little bit of wood ability... only a little bit, very weak."
Apart from Lin Xuefeng, she had never seen any other people with superpowers, and she wondered if everyone was as powerful as him.
But the way the other party easily subdued the enemy that night really amazed Huaiyu so much that the excuses he found now were mixed with his complete belief in him.
Lin Xuefeng said that he could feel a faint wood-related ability in himself, but he had no idea about his purification ability.
In this case, it would be reasonable to disclose it appropriately.
Zhou Qian was a little surprised, but soon relaxed. He said to the person beside him, "Test it."
The person holding the instrument to detect the variation value of the Rose Corridor immediately approached Huai Yu, quickly adjusting several buttons in his hands.
Before he could even touch Huaiyu's body, the instrument beeped.
"Wood type, mutation value 7."
Zhou Qian breathed a sigh of relief.
This variation value can basically be said to be incapable, no wonder Huaiyu never mentions it.
But with this special ability, the affinity between the Rose Corridor and strangers will indeed make the Rose Corridor safer than humans.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The premise is that it is not unhappy.
However, there is still a problem -
"What were you doing before the Rose Corridor movement alarm?"
Huaiyu paused, his eyes clear and innocent: "I bought a few small ginsengs at the market today, some of which are still alive, so I wanted to try to grow them..."
"Before it got angry, I was growing ginseng."
She probably wasn't lying - Zhou Qian could probably see that, so he relaxed even more.
It’s just… buying ginseng in the market and trying to grow it yourself. This behavior cannot be said to be being deceived, but only a momentary carelessness.
Zhou Qian nodded, then pointed at the tree house: "We need to go in and take a look."
Huaiyu nodded: "Okay."
She turned sideways, patted the dry dirt on her hands, and then took the initiative to open the door curtain.
The first thing that catches your eye in the tree house is the simple stove in the center of the house, surrounded by blue bricks and with a blazing flame. Next to the stove are kitchen knives, chopping boards and pots that are arranged very neatly.
Next is a familiar, defense-style solar lamp placed on a blue brick "cabinet", and the bright light comes from it.
The room was too small, so Zhou Qian and the person beside him walked into the room in a vague triangle formation. They found a large piece of dry straw spread on the ground in the corner, surrounding a simple camp bed, making it extremely safe.
Directly opposite the bed, beyond the firelight from the stove, you can see a black 28-inch truck standing there.
Clothes and towels were hung on the vines above.
The pots, buckets, baskets and baskets below were neatly arranged one by one.
On the blue brick cabinet beside the bed, there was a small and exquisite white porcelain vase with a slender pink and white rose in it.
Zhou Qian was speechless.
Is the affinity of wood-type psychics so high? Even the Rose Corridor is willing to let her pick flowers?
Suddenly, his eyes focused and he saw the line of small ice-carved words below the vase, sparkling under the light.
