Chapter 135 Stay with me for a while
Lilith leaned against the wall of the cube. The tremors of moving no longer embarrassed her. She lowered her eyes and looked at the tiny wound.
No one spoke for a long time. Everyone was immersed in their own sad thoughts. Shen Jiaxu hugged his arms and closed his eyes to recover his strength.
After a while, Robbins coughed lightly.
"Go back and have a rest, and make the appointments you need to make."
Everyone just nodded silently. Jayne clenched his fists, then slowly loosened them. A vague voice came out of his mouth, sounding a little depressed.
"Captain, Jayne's mother asked me last time when he would be able to complete his service and return."
Lilith raised her head and looked at the captain. A trace of pain flashed across her resolute and calm face, and the words she spoke out were almost incoherent.
"I, I will give Lanqi's suicide note to her."
Death is so easy. Every sentry in the marching army has written a suicide note. Some of them are used to locking it in the cabinet in the room and never looking at it again. Some of them are used to revising it before each mission.
Lilith once heard Lanqi's mumbling. In his suicide note, he wrote about many delicacies that he had never eaten.
"If I die, my mother will be very sad. I'm afraid she won't be able to bear it, so I asked her to eat at all the delicious restaurants I mentioned. Maybe if she eats delicious food, she won't be so sad about me anymore."
'R, if, I mean if, next time Mother sends a message, can I let her see you? Just to show her that with a great guide accompanying us, the mission won't be that dangerous.'
The cube stopped with a click, and Lilith followed the person in front of her out. The moonlight fell on her.
It turned out that they had been in the contaminated area for so long, longer than the originally stipulated time, and the people in the exclusion group had already returned.
She saw Will talking to the passing guide with a smile, and saw the silver-haired boy sitting quietly and obediently. When he heard the noise, he turned back and took a curious look, then turned back.
"Hey, Robbins, you're finally back? I thought you died in the contaminated area. You guys are more annoying than each other. Only Lanqi is a bit interesting."
Will flashed over and put his arm around Robbins's shoulder. He glanced at the number of people who appeared and suddenly froze.
"One is missing? Who is it?"
Those faces, mixed with reluctance and sadness, raised their heads one by one. Robbins' shoulders seemed to finally give way. He gave way, revealing Lanqi's pale face.
"I'm going to report. It's very dangerous deep in the contaminated area. You come with me."
Everyone saw something on the faces of the exploration team. The playful sounds died down and the entire base seemed to be in silent mourning, watching the two men walk away with the body.
Lilith turned to look at Jayne and said softly,
"Was it the same when Bernie died?"
"No, he died a quick death, without such pain."
"I see."
Having their spiritual bodies torn apart by their companions, both Ranch and Jayne must have felt bad, right?
When she thought the contaminated area was only slightly dangerous and she could use her purification ability to save her teammates, Lanqi's mutation told her the cruel truth.
With her mental strength that was less than A-level, she could only do the last useless work when her teammates were about to die. Once their mutation started, it was impossible to stop it.
Maybe, maybe things would be different if we had a more powerful guide. If it was an S-level guide, if it was Alice, Ranchi might not have to die.
Lilith knew she shouldn't think this way. According to her long-held belief, protecting herself was the most important thing. She had done everything she could to remind, not to hold back, and ultimately purify.
Without a guide, Ranchi will be burned in a strange state, leaving no body behind.
She didn't know what happened to her. Maybe it was because the temporary mark of disappearance made her vulnerable, or maybe it was the aftereffects of the mental potion.
"Then I'll go back first."
She whispered as she walked towards her hut. On the way, someone seemed to greet her. She responded in a low voice without raising her head. She only saw the crown of thorns on the other person's sword.
She looks familiar. Is she the guard next to Louis? Do you have something to do with her?
Never mind, if there was an emergency, Colin wouldn't care that she was a guide.
The door slid open in her iris, and as soon as she stepped in, she saw Fu Sui wearing a champagne-colored silk shirt. A loose tie hung on the wide-open collar, half-covering his chest.
The room was filled with the scent of roses. Upon closer inspection, there were rose petals on the floor and on the bed. In this base with scarce supplies, it was amazing that he could come up with such flashy things.
Well, there are candles. Fu Sui wanted to enjoy a candlelight dinner with her like in the TV series, but there is no delicious food here.
Lilith stared at the person in front of her. Her helmet was gently taken off, and her long golden hair fell like silk. Her beautiful and clear pupils appeared in front of Fu Sui without reservation.
The butterfly mask was also gently removed, and the rough fingertips rubbed the red eyelids. The blue pupils were a little out of focus, with nothing in them. No emotion or expression could be seen.
The atmosphere seemed a little off. Fu Sui, who had been confident, suddenly became a little uneasy.
He had been preparing for a long time while Lilith was out. Just to avoid unnecessary rumors spreading to Lilith, he had put a lot of thought into secretly sending the roses to her room.
"Well, if you don't like it, I'll clean it up immediately."
Those flowers that were sent by aircraft at a high price, and the deal with Louis to allow the aircraft to enter the base, can only be burned if the guide does not like them.
"Lilith?"
Not getting a response, Fu Sui asked again with some uncertainty. This was much more stressful than signing a contract worth tens of millions of star coins.
Or he might as well use his trump card. Although somewhat reluctant, Fu Sui was already thinking about how to lure Lilith to his room.
But Lilith didn't answer, she was just thinking about one thing, ah, it was Fu Sui, the one who knew her secret, he was calling out the name that only he knew now, not R, not Replica, but her truest appearance,
This seemingly arrogant and cold CEO always seemed to be unable to control himself in front of her. He was slapped by her the first time they met, and the second and third time... well, it seemed so too.
Even though he was a guide, Lilith thought that Fu Sui had also been attracted to her.
She stood on tiptoe under the sentry's surprised gaze and thrust her body into the reassuring chest.
"Stay with me for a while, Fu Sui."
