Seeing Sun Hao being so frightened in an instant, Nan Ci couldn't help but have some self-doubt.
Is she really that scary? She scared him into this with just one look.
Although he was thinking this in his mind, the expression on his face did not change much.
Nan Ci just said calmly, "It's okay if you don't want to go."
She had no intention of forcing Sun Hao to go with her.
Sun Hao did not become happy because of Nan Ci's words, he still looked sad.
"I...I can't leave the base even if I don't go now."
The base is already closed to only entry and exit, so even if he wanted to leave, it would be too late.
"It's okay." The old Taoist priest patted Sun Hao on the shoulder, "You can still stay here and wait for us to come back."
Sun Hao only hesitated for a moment when he heard this, and then firmly shook his head.
"Forget it, I'd better go with you. It's safer to be with you. If you really let me stay here alone, maybe something will happen."
The old Taoist priest looked at Sun Hao curiously, "What will happen?"
Sun Hao's expression became a little speechless, and after a while he said, "Maybe someone broke into the house and robbed the house. When you come back, you will have to collect the body for me."
After the old Taoist priest heard this, he did not say anything immediately, but stared at Sun Hao without blinking. After a while, he slowly spoke again.
"Maybe we can't come back, and you'll just have to stink here."
Nan Ci, "..."
Although she knew the old Taoist priest was joking, the joke didn't seem that funny.
Sun Hao also didn't find it funny at all, and almost cried, "Brother, can you wish me a better life?"
"Of course I wish you well! Didn't you say that? If you don't stay, you will go with us, then you won't stay here and stink."
That was indeed what he said, but Sun Hao always felt that something was not quite right.
But he couldn't explain why.
After thinking about it for a long time, I finally had to put it behind me.
Nan Ci ignored the bickering between the two, but seriously thought about where to find the research institute.
Such mysterious places where scientific research is conducted are usually hidden deep for fear of being found by ordinary people.
Neither Nan Ci nor the old Taoist priest had been to the base a few times and was not familiar with the base. If he wanted to find the institute, he had to either go out and look for it street by street, or...
Nan Ci's eyes fell on Sun Hao, "Do you have any acquaintances in the base? Can you get some news about the research institute?" Nan Ci asked.
Sun Hao shook his head with a grimace, "I'm just a nobody, even filling my stomach is a problem.
For a person like me, people who know me are afraid that I will ask them to borrow food, so how can they become my connections!"
Although he was belittling himself both inside and outside his words, Sun Hao didn't think there was anything wrong with it and was not ashamed of it.
His answer was completely within Nan Ci's expectations.
Nan Ci nodded, "It's hard for us to find them, but it's much easier for them to find us."
Sun Hao's eyes widened instantly, and he thought of a possibility, and asked tremblingly, "You...do you want to use yourself as a bait to lure them into taking the bait, so that they can capture you and take you to the institute?"
Bar?"
Nan Ci gave Sun Hao an appreciative look, "You think very quickly!"
