11, Chapter 11
An Zhe saw Lu Han smile for the first time, even though they had only met once - even though the smile was very slight.
But in this slight smile, An Zhe could still tell that the judge wanted to find something to do with him today.
After the smile disappeared, Lu H returned to his expressionless face. Only his long, cold white fingers were playing with the dark gun, a very dangerous movement.
An Zhe asked tentatively: "Can I leave?"
Lu H had no expression on his face and said, "What are you doing here?"
An Zhe answered truthfully: "I work here."
Lu h: "First floor or second floor?"
An Zhe: "...Three floors."
Lu h: "Oh."
Then, there was another long silence, until the swishing sounds recorded by the young judge stopped. Then he said: "There is no abnormality in the verbal interrogation, and the supporting judgment is that the person under trial belongs to human beings."
An Zhe saw Lu Han glance lightly in the direction of the young judge - but it didn't look like a look of approval.
He asked again: "I——"
Lu h: "You can go."
"Thank you." An Zhe quickly turned around, returned from the door, and sat down at a shop selling potato soup. He really wanted to drink this today.
The potato soup supplied by the base in the residential area sells for 0.3, while the price here is 1. The difference between the two is very obvious. The concentration of the soup has increased at least three times. In addition to the potatoes that are almost completely boiled and melted, the soup is also added with
A little bit of finely minced meat, maybe milk, and the sweet aroma of protein floating in the air.
The spoon is white. An Zhe picks it up, takes a sip, blows away the white mist, then puts it to his mouth and swallows it.
In the dense water vapor that hit his face, he squinted his eyes and felt very satisfied - it would be better if there was no figure of the judge in his peripheral vision.
An Zhe ate slowly, but seriously and quietly, without making any sound. About twenty minutes later, he finished eating, began to adjust his mentality, and prepared to pass by the Lord Judge and leave here.
The moment he left his seat and turned to the door, a harsh beep sounded - Lu H pressed the communicator.
When An Zhe passed by him, he only heard him say two words to the communicator.
"waste."
An Zhe was startled and quickly left the black market gate.
It is evening at this moment, the sun has already set, the western sky is a gray-blue ocean, and the wind is starting to get colder. In two hours, the base will lose power. The supply station opposite the black market has also closed its doors.
Keep spitting people out.
The three building points of the supply station, the black market, and the train station form a triangle, with a wide square in the middle. At this moment, people from all directions are surging in the square like migrating ants, flowing towards the train platform.
The train runs from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m., one train every hour, and always arrives on time.
When the time on the timetable was approaching, a subtle rumble came from a distance and gradually amplified. After a brief violent shaking, the train stopped on the track like a silver snake. The single side door opened and a dozen compartment doors slid.
As we drove, some people poured out of the car. Some of them had returned to their residential areas from other parts of the city, and some had just returned from the wild.
At this moment, a soft mechanical female voice suddenly sounded at the entrance: "Dear passengers, due to equipment failure, please all get off the bus and wait. Passengers waiting for the bus please do not get on the bus for the time being and spread out to wait."
"Dear passengers, due to equipment failure, please get off the bus immediately and spread out to wait."
The mechanical instructions were played in a loop. People who heard it were puzzled at first, and then started to move neither fast nor slow. However, some people immediately changed their expressions and pulled their companions to quickly get up from their seats, squeeze out of the car, and rush to the outside. This kind of movement was contagious.
He ignored the others, but within three minutes, the atmosphere of panic spread throughout the station, and everyone ran towards the square.
An Zhe was waiting to get on the bus when he suddenly found himself in a chaotic crowd. Although he didn't know what happened, he knew the rules of human social life. He turned around and planned to follow the crowd and disperse.
But the crowd pushed each other, and he was staggered, and someone bumped into his back. The sound of high heels tapping on the floor sounded. An turned around, smelled the familiar aroma, and found that it was Du Sai, the owner of the third underground floor, Mrs. Du.
She looked like she had just gotten off the car. Their eyes met, and Du Sai recognized him. Without saying a word, she grabbed his wrist and pulled him out quickly.
In the square, the sound of people falling and the screams of being trampled resounded. But Du Sai led him quickly through the sea of people as if he had experienced it thousands of times, until he followed the fastest ones at the front.
People came to the edge of the square - they paused.
A row of black light armored vehicles were parked neatly on the edge of the square. There was one every ten meters. There was a silver shield logo on the vehicle. An Zhe had read the base manual and knew that this represented the city defense station, which is the full name of the base's outer city defense station.
.At this time, soldiers with loaded guns and ammunition were disembarking from the vehicle and blocking all exits.
An Zhe still didn't know what happened. He ran so fast just now that he was out of breath. Du Sai next to him even bent down, inhaling and exhaling violently, and coughing several times.
An Zhe reached out and patted her shoulder. About half a minute later, Du Sai seemed to have barely recovered. At this moment, the square was still in chaos. People ran to the edge of the square as if fleeing for their lives, but were stopped by the city defense.
A human wall of soldiers blocked the way.
An Zhe helped Du Sai to a corner where there were slightly fewer people.
He asked: "What happened to them?"
"There used to be a lot of this kind of thing." Du Sai straightened up, looked at the crowd in the square, and said, "Some alien species has sneaked in."
After taking a breath, she continued: "There must be alien species in the car. It takes too long to get into the car for investigation. If the alien species attacks, there will be no time to kill them. If they die, they will be spread across several carriages. Spread out for easy investigation."
"This hasn't happened for a long time." She said, "Didn't the judge recognize it?"
"He is on patrol today." An Zhe said.
Not only that, he also heard Lu H receiving a communication and coldly cursing "trash". Now that he thought about it, he probably received the news that alien species had infiltrated the base.
At this time, An Zhe felt her hand holding him tremble slightly.
"Is he here?"
An Zhe said "hmm".
As if to confirm his words, the next moment, a dull "bang" sounded, and a stream of snow-white light lit up in mid-air. This stream of light shot down from a high place, like a dazzling lightning that instantly cut through the evening sky.
The sky curtain fell straight to the shoulders of a person not far in front of Anzhe and Du Sai.
An Zhe suddenly turned his head and looked towards the place where the stream of light occurred. On the main body of the black market's gray-white building, at the top, stood Lu H in black uniform. At this time, he was slowly putting down the black weapon in his right hand and holding it in his left hand.
A pair of binoculars was handed to him, and the young judge who followed him took it.
"The magnesium bomb has been positioned!" The next moment, a short order came from the army at the city defense station: "Get ready!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp roar erupted from an armored vehicle very close by, and a harsh scream resounded in the square. An incendiary I-bomb with thick smoke hit the spot pointed by the streamer of the magnesium bullet just now.
Location.
——All this happened in the blink of an eye.
A pungent burning smell spread, and among the crowd, a man fell heavily to the ground. Smoke came out with a "chi" sound from his body, and screams instantly echoed throughout the square.
An Zhe's hand held by Du Sai suddenly tightened.
"That person is sitting right behind me," she said.
"But he didn't attack anyone, I'm fine." She seemed relieved: "The white phosphorus bomb...he won't survive."
She looked up at the top of the black market building.
Lu H's back had disappeared on the roof of the building, but she was still looking over there. An Zhe looked at her, and Mrs. Du's charming and mature face suddenly showed an unusual tranquility at this moment.
The screams around them gradually weakened. On the empty ground left by the people who retreated spontaneously, the blackened and twisted limb stopped twitching and struggling and became motionless. Everyone else in the square seemed to relax.
tone, although the blockade of the city defense station has not been loosened at all.
"The colonel saved me once five years ago," An Zhe suddenly heard Du Sai say, "at the gate of the city, it was almost the same as now."
He didn't speak, feeling the atmosphere gradually calming down. That day at the city gate, he understood why some people hated Lu H so much. Today, he also understood why some people didn't.
Three minutes later, the soldiers of the city defense station forcibly separated a road among the crowd, and Lu H led the people to walk quickly to the four corpses. Due to their location, Anzhe and Du Sai were very close to here.
He put on snow-white gloves, knelt on one knee, pushed aside the human corpse in the center, and said briefly: "Knife."
——The judge beside him handed over a sharp sharp knife.
Immediately afterwards, Lu H was seen expressionlessly cutting open the belly of the corpse. The roasted black corpse gave off a pungent smell, but the exposed interior after the abdominal cavity was opened did not contain the organs that should be found in humans, but some
Thousands of dense, small and numerous, brown and translucent things.
An Zhe tried his best to look at it, and felt that it was like the larvae of an insect, something like a spider, and it was even squirming slightly.
He saw Lu H frowning, and the knife in his hand simply cut open the entire esophagus and throat of the corpse.
——Similar things kept falling out.
"Parasitic species, highly likely to spread." Lu H stood up, took off his gloves and threw them on the body. The judge immediately handed over new ones.
Just listen to him say: "Check everyone."
Du Sai's body suddenly went limp and fell forward.
Anzhe suddenly remembered what she said a few minutes ago.
She said the man was sitting behind her.
He tried hard to support Du Sai's body, but her movements were too large, and Lu H's eyes were already looking this way.
Lu H's eyes stopped on her cheek, and An Zhe followed his gaze.
In the chaos just now, he didn't look at her face carefully, but at this moment he took a closer look - there was a small, blister-like thing on her forehead, glowing crystal clear, and there was something inside.
Squirming slightly.
"I..." As if she felt something, Du Sai slowly stretched out her hand and touched that place. She trembled and looked at Lu H, tears falling from her eyes, and she took a few steps towards him.
This was the first time An Zhe had seen such a look on a human being. He couldn't tell whether Du Sai's expression was love or hate. Perhaps despair took over most of it.
There was a gunshot.
She fell forward, but An Zhe couldn't hold her back. After a dull sound, the human body fell to the ground.
At this moment, An Zhe was only a stone's throw away from Lu Hu, and he looked at him.
Those cold green eyes, like eyes with nothing in them——
Lu H suddenly reached out to him.
Anzhe shrank.
The judge did not pull the trigger. It was not the hand holding the gun. His finger fell on the side of An Zhe's face and paused briefly. An Zhe thought of the moment Du Sai fell and some of her blood was spattered.
When I put it on my face, it felt hot at first, but quickly became cold.
The cold liquid was wiped away, and the bright red color spread on the snow-white gloves, and the warm touch lingered briefly on his cheek.
Chapter completed!
