Chapter 64 Chapter 64 In the lobby on the first floor, there was only Lu Huiyao...
In the lobby on the first floor, Lu Ze, who was only as tall as Lu Hui's waist, had a stern face and was holding onto the corner of Lu Hui's clothes, unwilling to let go. Lu Hui grabbed her colleagues downstairs and asked them one by one if they knew Lu Ze and whose child this was.
Did the opportunity to appear on camera come to you? Ren Xiaoyue pressed the railing with a little force.
However, when she lied, she told Lu Hui that they had only met once. If she went ahead rashly, she didn't know if there would be a paradox... With her current popularity, there was no need to take this risk.
But won't it be better to ask the system if a paradox will arise? Wouldn't it be too unprogressive to just let go of the opportunity that has come right before us?
Before Ren Xiaoyue decided whether to contact Lu Ze, Cross had already come to her side.
"What took so long to get to the finance office?" Cross asked, standing next to her.
After asking, he also saw the following route. Cross let out a "wow" and leaned against the railing with half of his body leaning out.
"What did Satya do? He left the valuables lying around?" Cross gloated.
Ren Xiaoyue glanced at him and said nothing.
Now that Cross is here, she won't go down. It would be a waste of time if Cross caught you by the braid.
Ren Xiaoyue let go of the handrail and left. Cross didn't leave. He watched the fun with great interest and had no intention of moving. Ren Xiaoyue went back and worked for a while before Cross came back with a smile on his face. He probably left because he saw Lu Ze was found.
Ren Xiaoyue thought that there would never be a second encounter like this, but unexpectedly, half a month later, on her way back to the dormitory, she saw Lu Ze and Lu Hui eating ice cream outside again.
The two men each held an ice cream cone. Lu Hui licked it in small sips, while Lu Ze bit off a large piece in one bite. Lu Hui was so scared that she quickly held Lu Ze's hand and asked him if it was cold.
Ren Xiaoyue raised her head slightly and saw Cross and Satya hiding in the dark.
It’s so lively, everyone is here.
Ren Xiaoyue took just one look and decisively returned to the dormitory. It's still the same principle. It won't be worth it to get involved now.
The comics were updated on the night I saw Lu Ze and Lu Hui for the second time.
Ren Xiaoyue leaned against the head of the bed, reading the plot in the comics, and couldn't help but say "Hmm?"
This chapter of the comic depicts her second encounter with Lu Ze and Lu Hui. In addition to these two meetings, this sentence also squeezed in four more times of them appearing in the same frame.
The first time, she walked through the corridor with a notebook in her arms. Not long after, she saw Lu Hui pulling Lu Ze in the same corridor to find a researcher who could take him back.
The second time, she had just gotten on the elevator when Lu Hui came out of the elevator next to her, holding Lu Ze’s hand.
The third time, she was about to go out with the department's documents, but Cross stopped her, took her documents, and delivered them himself. In that department, Lu Hui and Lu Ze were being criticized by Satya.
The fourth time, she was standing in the dormitory corridor looking at the scenery. Suddenly, heavy rain came. She frowned and went back to the room. As she returned to the house, Lu Hui and Lu Ze appeared in the direction she had just looked.
These pictures of the same frame are just like pulling a fish and a bicycle together. It wouldn't matter if one of them was missing, but readers just bought into it and the barrage of comments was filled with wailing and screaming.
[Teacher, please walk slower. If you walk slower you will be able to see the treasure! ! 】
[This elevator is poisonous. Lu Ze's group was going down faster, but this group of people went up and down faster because of their overweight, allowing the group next to them to overtake.]
[The aquarium's elevator is more difficult to use than our elevator]
Did Cross do this on purpose? Is it intentional? The teacher can almost see the treasure selection. 】
[The teacher missed out on Zebao again]
[Wow, is the teacher standing there just to try his luck and see if Zebao is there? The teacher is so good and the rain is so bad]
【? I suggest you guys wake up, Xiaoyue and Lu Ze are not familiar with each other at this stage.]
[I don’t care, I don’t care, the teacher definitely wants to see Zebao]
To be honest, apart from her own deliberate performance, the readers' misunderstanding of her is also half due to the exaggerated cartoon.
Ren Xiaoyue even began to admire the comic splicing skills. I wonder what the base will look like after a while when it is in chaos?
Thinking of this, Ren Xiaoyue looked up at the calendar hanging on the wall. She remembered that the base became chaotic this winter, and judging by the situation, it would only be a few months away.
To destroy something, you must first drive it crazy.
The boss's overly hasty changes caused chaos in the base.
An impetuous atmosphere, utilitarian employees, frequently transferred positions, neglected projects, and the promotion of those with ulterior motives. The combination of several factors led to the release of the strange beasts imprisoned beneath the base, triggering the turmoil.
There is a reason why the boss is so anxious. As an ordinary person, his life span is about to reach its limit. It would be strange if he was not anxious.
Just wait and see, the show is about to begin.
In the last few months, Ren Xiaoyue held on to her belief of standing her last shift well and did not make any mistakes. She concentrated on completing her work, and met Lu Ze several times to help Satya test the limits of Lu Ze's abilities, satisfying readers' wish to see her and Lu Ze in the same frame.
Lu Ze at this stage has a similar personality to her, both of them are expressionless and naive experimental subjects. Because of this, she and Lu Ze were inexplicably teased by readers as being more like siblings than real siblings. She also unexpectedly gained some popularity.
In addition, Ren Xiaoyue also saw the last high-level psychic belonging to the villain organization, Bu Xin, at the base.
When Ren Xiaoyue saw Bu Xin, she was standing in the corridor with the employee wearing glasses following behind her. The employee was introducing the latest developments of the base to Bu Xin, but she folded her arms and turned a deaf ear to him.
When Bu Xin saw Cross and Ren Xiaoyue, he smiled warmly.
"Hey, long time no see, little Clo, this must be the little Sixteen you told me about." She patted Clos' shoulder affectionately and pinched Ren Xiaoyue's face.
Bu Xin is about the same height as Cross. She has tan skin, orange hair and light green eyes. She has a well-proportioned figure and visible muscles. She greeted Ren Xiaoyue and Cross warmly, and ignored the employees behind her from beginning to end.
When the employee got anxious, Bu Xin patted the man's head like a puppy and said frivolously, "Be good, stay aside and don't make trouble."
The employee's face turned red and he turned away feeling humiliated. Bu Xin looked at his back with an interested expression.
"You want a new pet?" Cross asked.
"Yeah," Bu Xin said as a matter of course, "I haven't seen such a disobedient type in a long time. It's quite interesting."
The two naturally talked about the precautions for raising pets. If the pets they were talking about were not ordinary people, the topic would seem more heartwarming.
Ren Xiaoyue stood silently aside as a wall hanging. She felt nothing in her heart, because Bu Xin's attitude towards ordinary people had already been written in the information provided by the system.
Bu Xin likes ordinary people. This kind of liking is not the liking between people, but the liking between people and pets. She treats ordinary people as kittens, puppies, and birds, not as human beings.
She does have the capital to think so, because she is a high-level psychic who advances naturally. She has been a high-level psychic for quite a long time. Before the founding of Odunari, she was already a very famous high-level psychic - known for her hospitality and friendliness towards ordinary people.
In this environment, Bu Xin naturally did not think that she was wrong. She even had an ideal. She wanted her favorite "cats and dogs" to become "people" as well.
She wanted to turn ordinary people into people with special powers, and for this reason, she accepted the olive branch thrown by the villain organization.
Cross chatted with Bu Xin for a while, then left on the pretext of work. Ren Xiaoyue followed Cross away. The encounter with Bu Xin was just a minor episode and had no impact on her life.
Time flies and winter soon comes. The snow fell heavily, covering the world in a layer of silver. The researchers in the base also changed into thick clothes. Although Ren Xiaoyue, as a high-level psychic, was no longer affected by the cold winter, she still became much lazier.
On the day when the trouble broke out at the base, Ren Xiaoyue was not in the base.
She was sitting in bed. The room was well heated, water was boiling on the table, and there was a half-eaten dessert on the bedside table. She leaned against the head of the bed, reading the hypnotic paper, and felt drowsy.
As expected, this paper was chosen by her specifically for hypnosis, it's so watery.
Ren Xiaoyue lazily reached out to turn the page, but before her fingers even touched the paper, she felt a strange fluctuation of supernatural power. The invisible fluctuations to the naked eye were like a roar when breaking free from bondage, or a wailing like weeping blood. When she received that wave, Ren Xiaoyue's sleepiness had already disappeared.
She turned over, jumped off the bed, and strode to the door. When she opened the door, the huge jellyfish had already broken through the roof of the base.
A translucent jellyfish floated in the air, its umbrella-shaped body above its head filled with people wearing protective suits, its tentacles still stuck in the base. It waved its tentacles and the base began to crumble.
It was only then that Ren Xiaoyue realized that the plot of Lu Hui escaping from the base was about to begin.
——The supernatural creature fused by Lu Ze, the supernatural jellyfish with the same strength as the ninth-level supernatural user was released.
Ren Xiaoyue took a breath, stood on the railing, and jumped down from the fourth floor.
Find Lu Hui before she leaves the base!
Ren Xiaoyue spent some popularity points to get the location of Lu Hui. After getting the exact location, she ran in a straight line into the base. At this time, the elevator in the base was no longer usable. Ren Xiaoyue hesitated for a moment and did not directly break the floor.
She knew that this was just the beginning. After the mutant jellyfish escaped, they destroyed other confinement devices, and more monsters would be released.
The base will get even more chaotic, so chaotic that Leo has to be called back to deal with it.
If she destroys less of the base now, other NPCs may be able to survive longer by relying on the facilities of the base.
Well, just consider it as doing good deeds and accumulating virtue.
Ren Xiaoyue used her legs to climb onto cabinets, walls, and hangings, and jumped to the entrance of the emergency passage against the flow of people. She followed the stair handle and jumped all the way to the floor where Lu Hui was.
It was not as easy for people upstairs to escape as it was for people downstairs. When she went upstairs, the stairs were already badly blocked. Ren Xiaoyue frowned and ran to Satya's laboratory. She pushed the door open suddenly, and inside was Cross with his back to her, and Lu Hui and Lu Ze lying on the ground.
They caught up and didn't let Cross send them away. Ren Xiaoyue breathed a sigh of relief.
She made no attempt to conceal her arrival. Cross turned around in surprise, with genuine surprise showing on his face. He was amused by the unexpected visitor.
"I didn't expect you to come," Cross straightened his clothes and said slowly, "Why did you come here? Are you worried that Wuming would escape? Or, are you worried that Satya's daughter would get hurt?"
Ren Xiaoyue took a step forward and asked instead of answering, "What about you? Aren't you going to deal with the jellyfish issue?"
Cross stood in the messy laboratory and shrugged, "With Bu Xin and Twenty-Three, the riot will soon subside."
"Aren't you going there to destroy the evidence?" Ren Xiaoyue asked.
The evidence of your betrayal.
Cross's expression didn't change, and there wasn't even a hitch in his movement as he turned around. The corner of his clothes drew a small circle in the air.
"When did you find out?" He took over Ren Xiaoyue's conversation so naturally, as if nothing had happened, but the atmosphere in the room had quietly changed.
"A long time ago." Ren Xiaoyue said.
Cross raised the corner of his mouth kindly. He took a small step forward and stood between Lu Ze and Ren Xiaoyue, standing straight with no flaws in his posture.
He said slowly, "Thank you for your reminder, but I have already cleaned up the beginning and the end. As for you, how are you going to break through my defense and take these two people away before the riot subsides?"
Ren Xiaoyue tilted her head in confusion.
"There is other evidence in my room. If you don't destroy it now, you won't have the chance later."
Cross still had that relaxed demeanor, but his deep purple pupils were fixed on Ren Xiaoyue's figure, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Ren Xiaoyue changed.
That is the switch from looking at the prey to looking at the hunter.
It didn't take long for Cross to make his choice. He put away his frightening look, smiled, and walked towards Ren Xiaoyue step by step, saying sincerely: "I underestimated you. This time you won. You have grown up very quickly and have learned to use me to achieve your goals."
"We are the same." Ren Xiaoyue replied. She watched Cross approach, unmoved.
In the end, Cross walked past Ren Xiaoyue and left calmly. As Cross and Ren Xiaoyue passed by each other, Ren Xiaoyue quickly added: "It's really annoying that you always want to test others."
Clos paused for a moment and walked out as if nothing had happened.
