Chapter 27

Yan Ping's fingers tapped the table lightly, making a crisp sound. Finally, he pondered, "Don't bother him for now."

"Just keep following up on the spider silk."

The spider silk of the giant spider is active and will dissipate after leaving the main body for about one or two hours. Although it is highly polluted and has a certain degree of danger, it will not cause much trouble.

After all, nearly ten hours have passed since the bloody rain fell in the morning, but the nursery is still calm and the alarm has not been triggered, indicating that the cubs are currently in good condition.

"Pay more attention to this Su Ci, and notify me if there is anything unusual."

As for the one who deliberately messed up during the giant spider attack, causing Luo Shengfei to almost die, he would also try to find him.

The other party was able to appear in the logistics building quietly and escape unscathed after the failure. Whether it was a monster or a cub in the nursery, it was a huge hidden danger to the 24th Base.

Guan Zhishu: "Then the report..."

Yan Ping shook his head: "Don't worry about it. I will first submit a report on the monsters actively invading the interior of the building. This will also be the focus of the base and the Star Alliance's top management."

This will directly affect the lives of the Hell Star Guard soldiers and the subsequent development plan of Hell Star. It must be reported as soon as possible. He should be busy with this matter in the next period of time.

"Okay." Guan Zhishu nodded to show that he understood, then remembered something and said, "The 25th and 26th bases just sent a text message asking if we need support."

Yan Ping nodded, "Well, I just received the news."

However, the 24th base did not suffer much loss this time, and there was no casualties, so naturally there was no need for help from friendly forces.

Thinking of this, Yan Ping sighed, "Base 26 is also within the range of the bloody rain. It is very generous for them to take the initiative to offer support."

"Yes, it seems that their losses this time are not small..."

Thinking of the soldiers who died in the monster attack, even if they were not in the same base, the emotions of both of them inevitably became heavy.

Operations Department Building, Director's Office.

"Does Base 24 really not need support?" On the other side of the communicator, the middle-aged man just got an accurate answer, and he was inevitably a little surprised.

"Yes, Base 24 is lucky this time, the losses are not serious, and the injured have been basically settled. Thank you for the concern of Base 26..."

Liu Guanyao greeted the other party and expressed his gratitude again and again before ending the call.

Thinking of the other party's surprise and astonishment, he couldn't help but slowly breathe a sigh of relief.

This time, the 24th base finally did not fall behind!

Every time the monsters invaded the base, friendly forces had to support it. Although it was also forced, it was a bit unpleasant to say it out loud. Now, finally, there was one time when the 24th base had enough strength to support others.

Although the other two bases affected by the bloody rain did not accept it, it did not prevent Liu Guanyao from feeling a little proud.

Thinking of this, he made a video call to Yan Ping.

Yan Ping is not only the captain of the 24th base's action team one, but also the leader of four action teams.

"Director Liu." Yan Ping's image appeared on the screen.

"Xiao Yan, the performance of the action team this time is very good!" Liu Guanyao praised with a smile, "Keep it up, and keep going!"

Facing Liu Guanyao's praise, Yan Ping remained calm.

He knew very well that there were no major casualties in the 24th base this time, and a large part of the reason was that the giant spider did not stay for long when fighting with them.

He did not think deeply at the time, and only after reviewing it later did he find that the giant spider seemed to be threatened by something, so it fled in panic. After

fighting with giant spiders so many times, Yan Ping knew that with the strength of the action team, it was not possible to cause such a great threat to the giant spider, especially when the giant spider was hunting.

Therefore, before they arrived, something they did not know must have happened.

Yan Ping's mind flashed the handsome face of the young man again, and then the slightly gloomy and thin child.

Could it really be because of them?

Yan Ping couldn't be sure. If he analyzed it rationally, it was more likely that the giant spider moved Luo Shengfei, angering the monster hiding in the dark and controlling Luo Shengfei's mind.

So, before they arrived, the two monsters had a battle, and the giant spider was defeated and fled. This seems to be explainable, but the question is...

Why did the monster leave when even the giant spider was not its opponent?

Yan Ping's mind was in a mess, but he didn't show it on his face. In the absence of evidence, he didn't want to drag Su Ci and No. 1 into it for the time being.

Seeing his solemn expression, Liu Guanyao quickly calmed down his emotions.

He coughed lightly and said seriously, "But we must be modest and calm, and let the members of the action team cheer up and stay in good condition at all times."

"If the monsters continue to invade the interior of the building in the future, we will have a tough battle to fight the next time the extreme weather comes!"

Finally, he whispered, "If you need anything, you can tell me, and I will do my best to fight for you."

Hearing his promise, Yan Ping breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, Director Liu."

Undercurrents surged everywhere in the base, but the nursery seemed particularly quiet tonight.

Affected by the extreme weather, the cubs' dinner was still in their respective rooms, and because cubs No. 6, 7, and 8 were all in a coma, only food for cubs No. 3 and No. 5 needed to be prepared.

In the corridor, 4586 used a robotic arm to pick up a lunch box and said, "Su Su, this is the dinner for number three."

Su Ci did not take it, but picked up the one on the cart that belonged to number five.

"I'll take it to number five."

"Oh, okay."

4586 had no objection and flew to number three's room with the lunch box, while Su Ci entered the rooms of number four and five.

Number four was still lying in the medical purification area, and there was still only number five in the room.

From morning till now, the little girl has been lying on the table and drawing quietly, without being disturbed by the outside world. Even when Su Ci walked in, she did not look up, and her little hand held the paintbrush and painted on the paper.

Su Ci walked over to take a look.

It was hard to tell what she was drawing. The entire piece of paper was covered in pink. In the pink, there were chaotic black and purple lines, scattered and sloppily, forming a slightly weird picture.

He stood by and watched quietly. Although he didn't understand, he didn't make a sound to disturb her. After a while, the little girl seemed tired of drawing and finally put down the brush in her hand.

At this time, No. 5 noticed Su Ci's arrival.

She turned her head and saw Su Ci. Her originally round eyes suddenly widened, revealing a wronged and angry look. This look is somewhat similar to her brother, both of them are little lions with bared fangs and claws.

"Where's your brother?"

She accused Su Ci in a stern tone, "You didn't go find your brother!"

As she spoke, her little hands slapped the table. It was clearly a childish voice, but it faintly carried the deafening roar of a lion. At such a young age, she was already quite intimidating.

Unfortunately, the person standing in front of her was Su Ci.

Su Ci lightly raised her fingers to dispel the mental attack from the little girl, then removed the painting on her table and put the lunch box in her hand on it.

The little girl sitting on the chair saw that Su Ci had no reaction at all, and couldn't help but blinked in confusion.

Under normal circumstances, it shouldn't be like this.

She stared at Su Ci for a while, and tentatively said: "You, sit down!"

Su Ci paused, looked at her sideways, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "You, eat."

Hearing this, the little girl was stunned.

She did not completely lose her consciousness like Number 8 did when she controlled her, but her body moved on its own.

She held the lid of the lunch box with her little hands, opened the lunch box and put it aside, and her right hand uncontrollably grabbed the small spoon stuck on the operating table.

The anger and grievance in the little girl's eyes disappeared, leaving only panic and uneasiness. Her eyes turned desperately to Su Ci, but her body did not obey her at all.

The spoon scooped up the jelly and brought it to her mouth. Her mouth opened automatically and held the hot jelly.

The jelly was warm in her mouth, but Number 5 felt a chill, a fear she had never felt since she was born.

The keeper...actually controlled her in the way she was most familiar with!

Number 5 finally understood the truth.

This skinny-looking keeper actually has the same ability as her, and is even stronger than her! That's why he didn't listen to her and didn't bring his brother back...

The little girl's rosy face turned pale. She was clearly eating, but she looked like she was being tortured.

Her body ate mechanically, but her consciousness was full of resistance, so that after the food went into her mouth, she had bouts of nauseating dry coughs.

However, even if her throat was stung and she coughed, her body would start eating again after she calmed down. No matter

how hard she tried to take back control of her body, it was useless. For the first time, Number Five experienced the pain of others being controlled.

No, that's not right.

Others are unconscious when they are controlled by her, but she clearly feels the separation of her body and consciousness, which can be said to double the pain.

This keeper is terrible!

After all, No. 5 is still young and has never suffered such injustice. Tears slowly accumulate in her eyes, and the big tears roll down and fall down with a patter.

The little girl sobbed, but her little hands still uncontrollably scooped the jelly and continued to put the food into her mouth.

"Bad guy... sob... sob..."

She cried and swallowed the food, looking so pitiful.

Su Ci did not soften his heart. He waited until she had almost finished eating the jelly before nodding gently.

"Well, that's enough."

As his voice fell, No. 5, who was mechanically scooping the aspic, finally stopped. As

soon as the force that controlled her was released, she climbed down the stool with her hands and feet, ran behind the bed to hide her body, only sticking out her little head, staring at Su Ci vigilantly, her tearful face looked miserable.

"You...you are bad!" No. 5's voice was heavily nasal.

Su Ci shrugged, slowly put away the tableware, and covered it with a lid. It was obviously a simple and gentle action, but with the threat just now, the keeper looked like a devil in a weak coat in the eyes of No. 5.

The gentler and more harmless his performance was, the more afraid No. 5 felt.

At this time, she heard the keeper say in his clear and gentle voice: "Don't use your ability indiscriminately, it's not good for you."

No. 5 shuddered, but she quickly clenched her fists again.

"Huh!"

The little girl wiped away her tears and bared her teeth at Su Ci. With this action, a pair of fur ears with almost the same color as her hair emerged from her head.

Looking at her like this, she looked more and more like a ferocious little lion cub.

Su Ci looked at her and suddenly asked: "It was you who controlled Luo Shengfei in the logistics department today, right?"

Hearing this, No. 5's face showed a trace of confusion, and then she stared at Su Ci again, her eyes mainly falling on the little red flower hairpin on his temples.

"Huahua, give it back to me!" She pointed at Su Ci and said fiercely.

Seeing Su Ci narrow his eyes slightly, she retracted her hands in fear, but her little face still showed the same stubbornness as No. 8.

Except for A Yan, it seems that none of the children in the nursery are well-behaved and docile... Oh no, there is also No. 3.

Of course, without in-depth contact, it is hard to say.

Su Ci looked at No. 5, and finally raised his hand, took off the plastic hairpin on her hair, and gently placed it on her small table.

No. 5 looked at his movements, and a trace of struggle flashed in her eyes. Finally, she slowly took out a handkerchief from her pocket.

This was given to her by Su Ci yesterday, and it still exuded a faint scent of pear blossoms.

It can be seen that the little girl was very reluctant to give it up. She really liked this handkerchief. However, in the end, she still grabbed the handkerchief, ran out from behind the bed with her short legs, and threw it directly to Su Ci.

"Give it back to you!"

The handkerchief flew in the air and then fell lightly to the ground.

After throwing the handkerchief, the little girl made a face at Su Ci. Then, she took the plastic hairpin on the table and quickly ran to hide behind the bed.

She looked so resolute, as if the friendship could be overturned at any time.

Su Ci didn't say much. He bent down, picked up the handkerchief that fell on the ground, and put it back into the space button.

"You should have a good sleep."

After saying that, he picked up the lunch box and left.

Seeing that he really left like this, No. 5, who was hiding behind the bed and secretly observing him, breathed a sigh of relief, but also pursed her lips in grievance. She

lowered her head and looked at the plastic hairpin in her hand. It was once her most precious little red flower, but now she didn't seem to like it so much... Tears began to swirl in her eyes again.

She really liked the fragrant handkerchief. It was the closest thing to a real flower that she had ever gotten. Moreover, she hadn't even had time to share it with her brother...

Thinking of this, No. 5's mouth became even more sullen.

The little girl wiped her eyes and sat down on the edge of the bed. Finally, she couldn't help but hug her knees with both hands, buried her face in her arms, and her shoulders twitched.

"Brother... 4583... Wuwu..."

The suppressed sobbing sound echoed in the closed room. In the small world, it was dark and lightless, as if she was the only one left.

Outside the corridor, Su Ci put the lunch box on the cart. He turned his head and glanced at the door behind him. He paused, and then retracted his gaze indifferently.

4586 was still in No. 3's room.

The young man stood against the wall, waiting boredly.

After a while, he looked at Room 5 again, sighed, raised his hand to open the screen of the communicator, and called up the address book.
