A smile appeared on Lu Yu's indifferent face, but there was no warmth in the smile.
It was the young man's indifferent ridicule.
"If I guess correctly, your grandparents should be high-ranking officials in the military, right? Otherwise, the man named Bai Donggu wouldn't have been able to recruit you into the team so smoothly, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Xiaoran's mind was like a thunderbolt.
Her petite body trembled slightly. The girl stayed there for a long time before she spoke with trembling lips.
"What do you mean……"
"It's not interesting. I'm a little tired. Please let me rest for a while."
Lu Yu stretched out one hand and made a gesture of invitation.
Xiao Ran looked at the young man's movements in a daze, his pupils filled with regret.
But things have reached this point, and her strong self-esteem does not allow the girl to let go of her figure.
She couldn't kneel down and beg Lu Yu to forgive her, right?
After all, what was her fault? She just wanted things to go more smoothly, and she just wanted Lu Yu to live well!
Taking one last look at the young man leaning on the bed, Xiaoran left the recovery room with tears in his eyes.
In the corridor, I met Xu Xiaoxiao who was coming back.
The girl had just finished visiting her uncle, and when she saw that he was fine, she ran back again.
Seeing Xiaoran coming towards him, Xu Xiaoxiao subconsciously wanted to stop him.
"Eh? Xiaoran! You..."
Before she even finished speaking, the girl noticed the tears on the little Loli's face.
Xiaoran ignored Xu Xiaoxiao, passed him directly, and left the medical area.
"What is Boss Lu doing...Why is Xiaoran still crying..."
An unexpected incident left Xu Xiaoxiao a little confused.
However, she did not catch up with Xiao Ran, but walked towards the recovery room.
The woman's sixth sense told Xu Xiaoxiao that the person who made Xiaoran cry should still be in the recovery room.
Entering the recovery room, Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes immediately locked on Lu Yu.
"Lu——Boss——"
Deliberately prolonging her tone, the girl stepped forward and asked.
"Why is Xiaoran crying? Did you bully her?"
But Lu Yu just remained silent, did not answer, and did not raise his head to look at the girl.
Although Xu Xiaoxiao was very nervous, he immediately understood when he saw Lu Yu's silence.
She frowned slightly and asked tentatively.
"You two must have had a quarrel..."
In Xu Xiaoxiao's impression, the relationship between Lu Yu and Xiao Ran can be said to be close and they have a tacit understanding.
Sometimes, she would even have the idea that the two of them might share the same soul.
Why did she go out for a short while and the two of them had a fight when she came back?
Facing Xu Xiaoxiao's inquiry, Lu Yu remained silent and did not answer.
"What's that, Boss Lu? Although I don't know what happened, Xiao Ran is just a nine-year-old girl. Can't you let her go?"
"We used to get through such difficult times happily. Why are we still quarreling now that we have arrived at the shelter safely?"
But no matter what Xu Xiaoxiao said, Lu Yu still looked away and remained silent.
The girl was anxious, but she could do nothing about Lu Yu's behavior.
After all, she couldn't give the other party a blow just to persuade them to make peace, right?
"Forget it, you pretend to be stupid, I'll go find Xiaoran and ask for clarification."
Stomping his feet, Xu Xiaoxiao finished his sentence and prepared to leave the recovery room.
But Lu Yu spoke at this moment and stopped her.
"No, there's nothing to ask."
"Why don't you have anything to ask? Xiao Ran even cried..."
When Xu Xiaoxiao saw Lu Yu making a sound, he stopped leaving.
I thought that the youth would explain a few words and explain the ins and outs of the matter.
But what he didn't expect was that Lu Yu just looked into the girl's eyes and said something serious and indifferent.
"We are destined to part ways. There is no need to attach too much nostalgia to this. Let's live a good life."
"Boss Lu, what are you talking about? I don't understand!"
Xu Xiaoxiao was straightforward. Although she could not understand the meaning of Lu Yu's words, she could read his expressions.
There was something wrong with Lu Yu's expression!
"It's nothing, you can go, I want to have a good rest."
Lu Yu closed his eyes and stopped talking no matter how Xu Xiaoxiao asked.
The girl couldn't figure out what happened to Lu Yu, so she had no choice but to leave the recovery room.
Without much effort, she found Xiao Ran in Shelter No. 5.
When Xu Xiaoxiao found the other party, the little Loli's eyes were still red and she was sobbing from time to time, which made the girl feel distressed.
"Xiao Ran, what happened? Why are you crying like this? I just asked Boss Lu and he refused to tell..."
When Xiao Ran saw that Xu Xiaoxiao was coming, he just wiped the tears on his face, shook his head and said.
"nothing……"
"Hey, why don't you two say anything? If there is a misunderstanding, it should be resolved. If there are conflicts, wouldn't it be good to reconcile them? We have experienced so much together, if there is anything we can't get over..."
Xu Xiaoxiao's brows were almost wrinkled. She was just a very nervous girl with an average IQ. She didn't know how to guess what happened between Lu Yu and Xiao Ran.
Both of them remained silent, so even if she wanted to be the peacemaker, she wouldn't be able to do it!
After repeated inquiries several times, Xu Xiaoxiao was almost exhausted, but he was still unable to ask Xiao Ran the reason for the conflict between the two.
Just at this time, another soldier came to inform her to go to the laboratory. The girl had to put her peacemaker mission on hold and followed the soldier out of Vault No. 5.
It didn't matter whether she was busy or not. Once she became busy, the girl completely forgot about it.
In addition, Lu Yu and Xiao Ran's dormitory was not in the same dormitory as hers, so there was no chance for the girl to recall this matter.
By the time she remembered it, something bad had already happened...
Time comes one month later.
As Bai Donggu said at the beginning, the Siming Mountain Shelter has received many scattered troops one after another during this month.
During this period, there were also many survivors who became enhancers or ability users for various reasons and chose to join the military forces.
These soldiers were all organized into the Siming Mountain Refuge, and were led by several ability users such as Tu Wu and Huang Bingtian to form seven teams.
These seven teams took turns guarding the Siming Mountain shelter, clearing out surrounding threats, and collecting as much supplies as possible.
After some operation, although it is not prosperous, it is also developing in a good direction.
However, human power is developing, and zombies are not idle either.
In this month, although it didn't rain continuously like in the first half month, the strength of the zombies increased by leaps and bounds.
Although seven teams took turns cleaning up, almost all the zombies around the Siming Mountain Refuge had been killed.
But there will always be mutated zombies appearing from unknown places to attack weaker teams or lone soldiers.
This resulted in the territory of the shelter being unable to expand, and the soldiers were unable to counterattack the city and gradually clear out the areas full of zombies.
Siming Mountain Shelter, in a certain conference room.
The person at the head was a fat man with a beard, who was currently reading the report handed over by the soldiers below.
Although the man just sat there quietly, there was an invisible pressure coming from him.
If not for everyone in the conference room being familiar with him, they would probably be restless at this moment.
The leader was none other than Xu Xiafeng, the former military commander of the Siming Mountain Refuge.
But now that the military rank has been restructured, the name everyone calls him has changed.
"Sergeant Xu... what should we do?"
The person closest to Xu Xiafeng was a ruthless man with a scar on his face - Tu Wu.
At this moment, he is still a second-level ability user, but his military rank has been promoted to the third level of gold, which is a junior non-commissioned officer.
But despite this, he was not disrespectful at all when questioning Xu Xiafeng.
Looking at that posture, it seems that Xu Xia Feng is even lower than Xu Xia Feng.
"What did Lao Bai say?"
Xu Xiafeng did not answer Tu Wu's question, but slapped the paper on the table and asked in a deep voice.
"The Bai Discipline Inspection Commission believes that there must be something weird behind this, and we should not rush to send troops to attack."
Huang Bingtian opened his mouth to answer, and his name for Bai Donggu was still the same as before the disaster broke out.
That is, the Military Commission for Discipline Inspection.
Even though the military ranks have been restructured, Bai Donggu is just an ordinary person.
But when talking about him, there was no look of contempt on the faces of all the soldiers.
They respected that sergeant, from the bottom of their hearts.
Hearing Huang Bingtian's answer, Xu Xiafeng's expression changed, as if he wanted to get angry, but he couldn't find a suitable excuse.
The beard on his face trembled for a long time, and finally he just sighed from his mouth.
"Sigh... He's shrinking again. What's there to be afraid of? I'd say Lao Bai is too timid. Just let me take a group of people over to have a look..."
The report on the table was crumpled into a ball by Xu Xiafeng's stubby fingers, and then he unfolded it again impatiently.
"This opinion was not only given by Bai Discipline Inspection Commission alone, but Xiaoran also suggested that we test it twice more and not send out all our troops until necessary."
A round-faced young man at the corner of the table spoke up. It was Chen Xiao, one of the first five first-level ability users who were genetically contaminated.
"Xiao Ran said the same?"
Xu Xiafeng's brows furrowed even more tightly. Although he knew how extraordinary that little girl was, she was only nine years old after all.
Correct
In the eyes of a rough old man like him, the other party is just a child.
Since he is a child, no matter how pertinent the advice given is, Xu Xiafeng will still make judgments with some bias.
"Yes, I also think it's better for us to be more cautious."
This time the speaker was a man with a gentle face, but his eyes were as sharp as an eagle's.
The only brain strengthening system in the entire Siming Mountain Refuge - Qiu Qianjun.
With this opening, everyone in the conference room turned their heads and glanced at him...
