After seeing Jiang Bin and the other two leave, Director Cai looked at Li Mu and the other three with disdain, and then said, "Follow me."
After saying this, he raised his proud head, turned around and left.
However, Li Mu was still sitting on the bench, not moving at all. Seeing Li Mu like this, Xu Ling and the other two naturally did not move.
The two guards holding guns frowned, and one of them said, "Everyone, please!"
"Where are we going? If we just leave because you tell us to, wouldn't that be embarrassing?" Xu Ling said unhappily. The woman surnamed Cai was too arrogant and didn't take them seriously at all.
Director Cai also stopped when he heard the noise, turned around and looked at Li Mu and the other three who were sitting on the bench as steady as a rock, and said in a cold voice: "Young people, this is the Fire Seed Base. Do you think you can run wild here just because you are used to being wild outside since the snowstorm?"
"What's wrong with the Spark Base? We are not from your base, so why should we have to look at the face of an old witch like you?" Xu Ling's voice became louder, attracting the attention of some busy staff around.
Director Cai seemed to think he had heard wrongly, and asked Xu Ling for confirmation: "What did you say I am?"
"An old witch in menopause!" Xu Ling said without fear.
Director Cai was probably used to showing off her power, and now she was embarrassed to hear that this wild girl from outside dared to contradict her in public, so she shouted to the two guards: "Why are you still standing there? Take this wild girl down and throw her to District 6."
The two guards looked embarrassed and said cautiously, "Director Cai, they are the people Secretary Liu wants to see. There must be a reason to arrest them, right?"
"Reason? Provoking trouble, interfering with official business, whatever. You have been working in the headquarters for such a long time, do you still need me to teach you this?" Director Cai said with a distorted face, and he fabricated charges for Xu Ling without any scruples.
The experts and professors who were watching from the sidelines fell silent upon hearing this, and quickly lowered their heads to continue working, as if they had not seen or heard what had just happened.
The two guards had no choice but to bite the bullet and approach Xu Ling, ready to capture him.
"What a great official authority! Is this the hope of human civilization and the style of the Spark Base?" Li Mu said lightly and grabbed two guards.
Director Cai narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Li Mu with a gloomy face and said: "Boy, do you want to go to District 6 too?"
"Haha, the sixth district? It doesn't sound like a good place, but we have no plans to join your base yet, and you have no right to interfere with where we go, right?" Li Mu said with a faint smile.
"Now that we've arrived at Huo Zhan, it's no longer up to you! Guards, take them all down. I'll go talk to Secretary Liu!" Director Cai said coldly.
"Stop!" The elevator door opened and a young man shouted in a deep voice.
"Captain Zhang, aren't your patrol team's jurisdiction too lax? Why don't you take care of those murderers outside, but instead bring your supervision to the headquarters?" Director Cai said with a sullen face.
"Director Cai, these people are distinguished guests of our base. I hope you will think twice before you act." Although Captain Zhang had long been fed up with Director Cai, he was Secretary Liu's confidant after all, and Secretary Liu was the confidant of the highest leader of the base, so he had to lower his posture to him.
"Distinguished guests? It's not up to you to decide whether they are distinguished guests or not! No matter where they come from, it's not a reason for them to cause trouble in the headquarters! Zhang Chuan, I'll give you one more chance, get out of the way quickly, or I'll take you down too!" Director Cai said coldly.
"I'm sorry, I can't do that!" Zhang Chuan stood in front of Li Mu and the others without moving.
Just now, he met Jiang Bin at the door and they knew about the flying car of Li Mu and his friends. They immediately weighed the pros and cons. If the base could master the method of making the machine work in extreme temperatures, the strength of the base would be greatly improved, and the implementation of the Fire Plan would be more secure. Therefore, he would not let this crazy woman do whatever she wanted.
"Haha, good, good, very good! Zhang Chuan, it seems that you are planning to rebel!" Director Cai laughed angrily, but although she was arrogant and domineering, she was not stupid. She knew that the two guards were no match for Zhang Chuan. After all, Zhang Chuan was a second-level super-powered person.
"You two keep an eye on them. I'll go report to Secretary Liu." Director Cai instructed the two guards, and then he trotted deep into the command center to report.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it is our base that has not treated you well. Don't worry, Secretary Liu knows what is going on and will not punish you after knowing this." Zhang Chuan said to Li Mu and the others sincerely.
Xu Ling had some good feelings towards Zhang Chuan who was defending them, but she was immediately unhappy when she heard Zhang Chuan's words: "Punishment? He wants to punish us too? What crime have we committed? Provoking trouble?"
"Uh..." Zhang Chuan looked embarrassed.
Li Mu waved his hand to stop Xu Ling from persisting, and joked to Zhang Chuan: "It seems that you superpowers are not very popular in this base! A small and shabby director can manipulate you at will."
Zhang Chuan was silent for a long time, then smiled bitterly and said, "What superpowers? They are just aliens. If it weren't for the commander-in-chief taking us in against all odds, we would still be hiding outside the base. How could we dare to expect to have any say in the base? Besides, the people in the command center are responsible for the mission of reviving human civilization. Compared with them, we warriors are nothing."
"In the end times, isn't strength king? If you are willing, take over the supreme command of this base. Under your rule, can't you still implement the Spark Plan? Why put up with this?" Xu Ling said disdainfully.
Zhang Chuan's face suddenly turned cold when he heard this, and he said in a cold voice: "Girl, watch your words! If I hear such remarks that affect the unity of the base again, I will be the first to kill you!"
Xu Ling's body trembled and she shrank her neck. She didn't dare to say another word. She just looked at Li Mu with a face full of grievance, looking like a wronged young wife.
Li Mu ignored it and smiled at Zhang Chuan, "Don't be nervous, Captain Zhang. This girl doesn't think before she speaks. She just says whatever comes to mind. She has no other meaning."
Zhang Chuan's expression eased a little, and he said to Li Mu and the others, "The Spark Base was created by the commander-in-chief. Without the commander, there would be no Spark Base. He is the only great man who can lead the revival of our human civilization. Questioning the commander is to be an enemy of the entire human civilization. Haha, there have been rebels who wanted to overthrow the base's regime in the past. The biggest one was when those rebels had already reached the door of the commander's office. Later, the commander personally took action to suppress them. However, the commander did not make it too difficult for them. He only sent them to work in the sixth district, and their families still live in the original area."
"Oh? So, your commander is also a super-powered person?" Li Mu asked with narrowed eyes.
