Chapter 200 You Must Take Responsibility
Upon hearing the captain's voice, the rabbit quickly stood up and ran to open the door.
Xie Tu was standing outside the door, carrying a bag containing three or four ceramic lunchboxes.
The rabbit very tactfully called Liu Hong out, "Captain, let's go down for lunch first."
Xie Tu nodded slightly, stepped aside to let them pass, and only entered the room with the lunchbox after they had gone far away.
The room was dimly lit, and the curtains were drawn tightly shut.
The room was quiet and dim.
The flashlight was placed upwards on the bedside table by the rabbit, its weak beam shining on the ceiling and casting dappled shadows.
Being alone in a room while sober is very awkward.
Yun Zhao watched him walk towards her, but her gaze couldn't help but fall on his neatly dressed black combat uniform.
Last night she seemed to have... taken off this outfit.
In that dark, enclosed, noise-reduced room, she was held tightly in the man's arms, his warm breath spraying onto her neck and shoulders.
The chest pressed tightly against his was thick and hot.
She could feel the surging power hidden beneath the muscles...
As soon as Yun Zhao thought of that scene, he quickly turned around, found a blanket, and buried himself in it.
Ah, I'll just be a tortoise then.
"Are you feeling better?" Xie Tu had been lost in thought when he came in, but seeing her ostrich-like appearance, he couldn't help but smile.
Yun Zhao buried his head in the blanket, and a muffled voice came out, "Much better."
She's like a fox spirit who uses yang energy to replenish yin.
I felt refreshed after having a good time.
Although his mental state has not fully recovered, it is indeed much better than when he was weak before.
Xie Tu's expression remained unchanged: "Okay, get up and eat first. I have something to tell you after you finish eating."
Upon hearing this, Yun Zhao thought of an idiom.
—Settling scores later.
So I was even less inclined to get up.
"I'm not hungry."
After Yun Zhao finished speaking, she noticed footsteps gradually approaching her.
The bed next to me sank in, and the blanket covering my head was suddenly pulled off.
She was immediately exposed.
"You have to eat even if you're not hungry." Xie Tu sat on the edge of the bed, watching her pretend to be an ostrich.
So she actually knows how to be shy.
Will you dare to be so bold next time?
Yun Zhao hesitated for a moment, trying to ignore this strange new way of getting along, and finally chose to sit up and face him.
The two locked eyes.
A smile played on his lips, revealing shallow dimples. Looking into those deep eyes, Yun Zhao wanted to bury herself under the covers again.
"It refers to the spiritual union."
Seeing her evasive attitude, Xie Tu felt a fleeting, indescribable emotion in his eyes, but he still spoke up.
"Didn't you learn in your training course that the combination of guide and sentry is a lifelong commitment?"
Spiritual union is a unique spiritual fusion between sentinels and guides.
When the two are deeply combined, their mental powers resonate subtly, their mental frequencies gradually become compatible, and a profound mental connection is established.
As the number of times they get together increases, their feelings gradually deepen and are further enhanced.
It is not limited to the emotional level, but also involves the sharing, complementarity and enhancement of spiritual power.
This connection will become unbreakable.
Once the relationship is severed, both parties will suffer a devastating blow to their mental well-being.
Therefore, many sentinels and guides who were paired together never recovered after their partner's death.
This is also the main reason why the older generation of sentries gradually left the front lines.
Yun Zhao was taken aback upon hearing this, clearly having thought of it as well. She began to ponder the question, "You want me to take responsibility for you?"
Xie Tu was silent for two seconds, his eyes becoming even more profound: "Shouldn't you take responsibility?"
Yun Zhao: "..."
For Yun Zhao, last night's events were nothing more than an absurd incident that occurred when he was not fully conscious.
But for Xie Tu, it ignited a long-suppressed flame within him.
The physical intimacy and spiritual communion stirred up a monstrous wave that overwhelmed all his reason.
Even after using inhibitors, it cannot be completely quelled.
Xie Tudu's days were like the sun, and he stayed awake until dawn.
The deepest, most hidden desires of the soul are laid bare.
Their spiritual worlds accept and merge with each other, like two drifting streams flowing into the same ocean.
He could no longer hide it and treat it as an insignificant accident.
Seeing that she remained silent, Xie Tu's expression tightened, concealing his inner unease. "Are you trying to renege?"
“I didn’t mean to renege,” Yun Zhao replied instinctively.
She's not a hesitant person, she just doesn't know how to handle things and hasn't figured out what to do yet.
The two were such a perfect match.
She didn't reject it; in fact, she really liked the feeling of being together.
Accompanied by intense mental fluctuations, the entire body and mind are cleansed, and one's mental strength is enhanced.
She was confused and followed her instincts.
Who would have thought that I would have to take responsibility afterwards...
Xie Tu's heart, which had been inexplicably hanging in suspense, finally settled back into place.
He had a lot to say to her.
It's different when she senses your feelings in the spiritual realm than when you say them aloud.
Xie Tu simply followed his intuition and said whatever came to mind. Just as he was about to speak, the little bluebird appeared at this inopportune moment.
The little guy looked at him with a wary gaze.
Arrogance tinged with a hint of defensiveness.
Xie Tu's smile vanished instantly, all his thoughts, desires, and intentions stuck in his throat.
He immediately realized that he still had a long way to go.
That's true, you can't push people too hard.
This is a contaminated area, not a place to discuss business. The most urgent thing is to find a way out.
They can discuss this private matter properly when they get back to the base.
Anyway, there's plenty of time later.
"The food's getting cold." Xie Tu changed the subject at the right moment, got up, opened the lunchbox, and handed it to her. "Eat first."
Yun Zhao put away those messy thoughts and said, "Oh."
*
The two had lunch before coming out of the room together.
Liu Hong led the four sentries to the top floor to observe the situation on the nearby streets.
With nothing to do, the rabbit followed them upstairs to wait for the peregrine falcon to deliver a message.
Only Jiang Mu was in the lobby on the first floor.
Jiang Mu occupied a row of sofas by himself, leaning back leisurely. When he saw the two of them come out, he naturally raised his hand to greet them.
Xie Tu nodded slightly in response.
Yun Zhao looked around at his surroundings and nodded in greeting.
The guesthouse was nicely decorated, and although the furnishings were a bit old, it was spotless, indicating that Jiang Mu and the others had cleaned it after they arrived.
To prevent being surrounded by mutants, the entire guesthouse, including the surrounding streetlights, has been completely destroyed.
The two sat down opposite him.
"The people who went out on the mission haven't returned yet."
Jiang Mu's gaze swept back and forth between the two of them, and he said meaningfully, "Guide Yun seems to be in better spirits."
"Hmm, I'm feeling a bit better."
Yun Zhao replied calmly, "I feel like you're talking in a sarcastic tone, so I'm planning to raise your price when I do counseling."
The little bluebird perched on her shoulder, fluttering its wings.
[Price increase!]
Jiang Mu: "..."
Yun Zhao: "Last time I received 10,000 points from Fu Heng. How much do you think I should increase it by?"
Jiang Mu looked helpless and raised his hands in surrender, "I was wrong."
As soon as the child saw the guide appear, he started begging to come out and play.
However, the White Beast is huge and doesn't know its own strength when playing with it. Not only does it damage houses, it also easily attracts the attention of mutant species.
Yun Zhao didn't dwell on it.
The three hadn't been sitting in the lobby for long when the peregrine falcon flew back with a message.
