The first time I saw Corner's ability on the battlefield, I was blank for a long time.
Perhaps because his eyes were invisible through the bandages, those mysterious abilities were even more frightening.
When I ran towards him, I deliberately stayed a few steps behind.
I was originally very ambitious and wanted to be his bonded nanny, but at that time I was a little bit withdrawn.
But after getting closer, the fear of facing an abyss disappeared again.
He fell onto Ritsu's shoulders.
The head is round and fluffy, like a snow-white dandelion.
Dandelion fell asleep and made a purring sound.
Chapter 42 Orphanage with High Deformation Risk·42
An Yu was lying on the ground when he woke up.
The wind and snow outside the window have not stopped, and the sunlight passes through the snow and sand and casts on the old floor of the activity room.
There was a very elastic touch under his neck - he was resting on a round octopus tentacle, and the other end of the tentacle bent down and was held in his arms.
An Yu sat up suddenly.
Qin Zhilu sat on the ground next to him, one leg bent, and the acoustic guitar in the activity room was casually placed on his leg.
"You woke up so soon?" He was a little surprised, "You only slept for two hours."
"Well..." An Yu hugged the tentacle and was stunned for a while before saying, "It seems that every time I am on a mission, I don't sleep for a long time."
"It seems that your sleeping sickness has its own principles and only attacks in safe environments."
"Maybe……"
Although he slept not long ago, An Yu's mind was a little muddled. He recalled the battlefield before falling asleep, "Where are they?"
"Going to track down the protected person on the second floor. Because I don't know how long you will be comatose, so we split up."
"Oh..." An Yu rubbed his sore temples vigorously, trying to retrieve the last memory before falling asleep, "How is Jiang Xiao?"
"His mental power fluctuates a bit. The sound of the mirror cracking when a freak dies will shock everyone's sanity. Jiang Xiao's reaction is stronger than others, so he needs to calm down for a while." Qin Zhilu said, "Don't worry about the flesh injuries. There is nothing left. Healing, Kazama helped him heal."
An Yu thought of those fluffy dandelions and sighed: "Fengjian's healing speed is a bit slow. But he is ranked very high in the ladder. He said before that he is good at locking blood and can set the blood line."
"Yes." Qin Zhilu said casually: "I have never gone on a mission with him, but it is said that he can indeed do it. Although the healing speed is usually slow, after setting the blood line, once the life is lower than the blood line, no matter the loss No matter how big it is, he can pull it back above the blood line in an instant."
"In an instant?" An Yu asked in surprise: "How did you do it?"
Qin Zhilu shook his head, "Many lawful people have details about their abilities that they are unwilling to disclose. This is their personal privacy. The Black Tower will keep it secret for them, and I have no right to know."
An Yu could only nodded blankly.
The Chief always seemed to be like this, even though he was the most powerful person in the Spire, there were no secrets at all if he wanted to know. But he is indifferent to many things, such as the privacy of other Lawful beings and the reasons why poets avoid him.
His white gloves were clenched on the stringboard of the acoustic guitar. Just like the night before in the activity room on the first floor, Qin Zhilu just clenched them casually. Although he had never played, the strings seemed to have a natural feeling in his hands. sense of familiarity.
Out of nowhere, An Yu suddenly asked, "Can you play?"
Qin Zhilu paused, "I haven't played it for a long time, maybe I have forgotten it."
He casually put the guitar aside and hooked the backpack on the wall. "In order to ask for your forgiveness, Slade left all the food I brought with you."
An Yu suddenly became energetic after hearing this.
The lawmen of the Spire like to carry energy bars with them on missions. Although they are still compressed food in nature, they are rich in sugar and nutrients and taste good.
An Yu took apart three sticks in a row, held them together, and chewed them like coarse bread.
The sticky sweetness burst into his mouth, making him feel extra safe.
Qin Zhilu originally tore one open, but seeing how he was eating it, he silently put it back.
An Yu said vaguely: "You don't need to leave it for me."
"I just suddenly lost my appetite." Qin Zhilu reached out and tore apart the remaining dozen energy bars one by one and pushed them towards him, "Eat slowly, you are no longer an orphan, no one will attack you Collect food for protection.”
When An Yu heard this, his chewing movements suddenly stopped.
After a moment of silence, he locked his eyes on the two nutritional bars and decided to keep them secretly - the commander was now the one protecting him, so for safety reasons, it was always right to leave two nutrition bars for the commander.
This is the survival instinct of a weak guy. Even if he doesn't have enough to eat, he will always leave some food on his body for those who may collect protective food.
Qin Zhilu was completely unaware of his brain circuit. He pulled out two pages from the information nearby and handed them over, "Look at this."
This is the written document they just brought out from the physical examination warehouse. It contains the physical examination records of everyone on the second floor.
"Both the freaks and humans have records. The freaks were only tested once after the mirror came, while the humans were monitored every week." Qin Zhilu explained: "After a rough search, only these two are special."
There were only a few lines on the first page.
【No.】21371115
【Name】See the stars
[Distortion status] Distorted
[Gene type] Refuse detection
【Body surface characteristics】Human body, refusing detailed inspection.
"Other aberrations will record every physical sign that is not human in detail and take pictures. Only he fills it out perfunctorily." Qin Zhilu paused, "The next one is even more perfunctory, and he is a human."
【No.】21370226
【Name】Ayue
[Distorted state] Not distorted
【Weekly Inspection Record】Refuse to participate in the inspection.
"Refused to take the test..." An Yu was stunned for a long time, "Then he should have been killed by the freak a long time ago, right?"
The human children on the second level have long lost their dignity and disobeyed control. There is no doubt that there is only one end.
Qin Zhilu shook his head, "When the mirror first came, there were indeed dozens of children who refused to give in, and they were all executed by freaks. The information pages of the executed humans would be marked with a cross and separated into separate piles. . But this Ah Yue is mixed up in other children’s information and should still be alive.”
See the stars and the moon.
One is a mysterious freak with an unknown genotype, and the other is an ordinary human who refuses to surrender but is safe and sound under the supervision of the freak.
An Yu looked at the two pages carefully for a moment and said softly: "What Bai Jing wants to protect are three special aberrations. As long as they survive under the supervision of the mirror above their heads, neither humans nor aberrations will dare to provoke them." The children he protected.”
"So, Jianxing is probably the key to this level." Qin Zhilu pointed to another piece of paper, "And he may be the person protected by Jianxing, just like Sisi is to Chen Nian."
Slade's voice suddenly sounded in the earphones, "I found it. Jianxing lives in a locked storage room, and Ayue lives in an ordinary sleeping nest. According to their daily whereabouts, Jianxing rarely goes out and almost only Appear in three locations: the storage room, the activity room and the cafeteria.”
An Yu was surprised and said: "Activity room?"
"Yes. Coincidentally, that is where you and Lu are now." Slade paused, "Based on the time, he should be having lunch in the cafeteria. We may not be able to rush there in time, but you are very close to the cafeteria. "
Qin Zhilu hung up the call and said, "Let's go there."
"Is it just us?" An Yu hesitated, "At lunch time, all the freaks should be in the cafeteria."
His appearance will inevitably cause another round of melee.
Qin Zhilu paused and thought for a moment after hearing this, "It doesn't matter, it may not attract their attention."
"No way?" An Yu was confused, "There are no abnormalities encountered on this level without exception."
Qin Zhilu didn't answer. He looked at An Yu and suddenly asked, "Now that you're full, can you use your abilities?"
"I guess so. Actually, I'm not completely full." An Yu muttered in a low voice, "When we were in Area 53, you blamed me for not being able to restrain my ability to test, but just now you seemed to have no bottom line."
Qin Zhilu chuckled upon hearing this, retracted the last octopus tentacle placed on An Yu's lap, and completely transformed back into human form.
"I just don't want to see you using your abilities indiscriminately anymore, folding the officer into the bandage or something..." He paused, and then said seriously: "Now that you have the strength, now, fold me into the bandage."
An Yu, who was wrapping the bandages scattered on the ground back on his wrist, was stunned.
He was silent for a moment, "Sorry, there seems to be something wrong with my ears. Can you repeat it?"
Qin Zhilu couldn't help but curled his lips and urged: "Hurry up."
"..."
Along the way, An Yu was thinking about life.
Ling Qiu did say that big men can go back on their word and do whatever they want, but the officer's inconsistency came so quickly, which made him feel a little... humiliated.
"You need to give me a reason." An Yu said in a muffled voice.
In the earphones, Qin Zhilu’s voice said with a smile, “Why?”
"Putao said that the person under supervision and the supervisor are equal in terms of personality." An Yu paused, "Although you are a noble and powerful person from the main city, and I am just a pariah from the bait city, we have now concluded an agreement. In order to achieve this kind of relationship of equal personality, you must have basic respect for me."
Qin Zhilu said in a surprised tone: "It makes sense, Tao Tao can actually teach you this."
He seemed to be making a casual remark. An Yu waited for a while, but could not wait for a follow-up explanation, so he had no choice but to continue walking alone in the wind and snow.
The relationship of personality equality does not exist.
However, after walking a few steps, Qin Zhilu's voice suddenly sounded in the headphones again.
This time his tone was serious, "I just want to try to see if those freaks can still be attracted to you when we are close enough to each other. In other words, what they sensed at that time was you or Chen Nian. A terrifying existence to speak of.”
An Yu suddenly paused at his feet.
The moments when Chen Nian was aware were in the cafeteria, next to the sleeping nest, and when he first arrived underground. At those moments, without exception, the commander was folded into the small space close to his body.
As luck would have it, the officer was released outside the reading room and before finally killing Chen Nian, and Chen Nian's feelings disappeared.
Qin Zhilu said calmly: "You hardly attracted the attention of the freaks on the first floor, because when the freaks were present, I was piled up by you."
An Yu's back stiffened, "This... means something."
"I don't know." Qin Zhilu said quietly: "But it's such a coincidence. If this guess is not confirmed, I will be a little worried."
It was the lunch rush hour and the canteen was crowded.
Due to the large number of huge abnormal supervisors on the second floor, the cafeteria seemed extremely crowded.
