Nika breathed out, looked at the ground at Badou De's feet, and said to the cracked gray tiles: "He said it as if we were about to start a fight. If you have anything to explain, go over and tell them.
That’s all, right? You’re always reasonable.”
Those who can be called to help by Badou De are somewhat kind and respectful to him, and no one is willing to quarrel with him. If Badou De can nod his head, he will call Lin Sanjiu and Zhong Qing to go to Xichengkou.
, they can breathe a huge sigh of relief.
"Yes, we know you just care about ordinary people. After all, you-"
Another evolver from behind said this, suddenly paused, lowered his voice and murmured: "We all understand your concern for ordinary people... Let's go, everyone will go with you."
Their attitude was understanding and polite. They only talked for a long time, but Batou De always folded his arms and stared at a flattened iron barrel on the other side of the city road without saying a word. As he remained silent, the others
People's voices also gradually died down.
The nearby residents had long since died and dispersed; this section of the city road was suddenly so quiet, as if someone had been dug out of the disaster in Fanjia City.
Maybe a little too quiet.
Just now, Lin Sanjiu could clearly hear the murmur of wailing in the distance, but now it was as faint as an hallucination at the edge of her nerves. Was it because everyone had evacuated? That's why the voice gradually became lower?
"Batou De, please speak." Nika seemed a little uneasy, so she broke the silence and urged.
Badou De still remained as he was, without saying a word.
When several evolvers took two hesitant steps toward him, Zhong Qing stepped back slightly, stood next to Lin Sanjiu, and whispered: "He really cares about ordinary people."
Lin Sanjiu was a little surprised. Zhong Qing gave her the feeling that she didn't seem like the type of person who would just keep talking when he had nothing to say. Zhong Qing soon proved that her feeling was right.
"He cares so much about ordinary people," he continued steadily, "but he doesn't worry much about them."
Lin Sanjiu glanced at him quickly, raised her hand to block the two of them, and then asked: "What do you mean?"
"The mutation of ordinary people is a fact that we have witnessed with our own eyes." Zhong Qing's eyes turned to Transparent Consciousness and said: "He is unwilling to admit it, which is easy to understand. After all, this is a blow to him. But on the other hand,
One fact is that not every ordinary person will mutate. He let the young man whose eye was injured just go and asked him to go to the place where ordinary people gather at Xichengkou, isn't he worried about the safety of other people? "
Lin Sanjiu understood immediately. She recalled the tone in which Badou De persuaded the young man to "just have one eye." No, he may have been blinded by a leaf. Who said that a person with a good heart will have a blind eye?
Gotta be clear?
"If he didn't expect it, forget it. But the long knife you raised has clearly indicated the most terrifying possibility." Zhong Qing whispered, "If it were me, I wouldn't let those eyes
A wounded man close to anyone I care about."
"Do you... think he is acting?" Lin Sanjiu looked at Batou De's back and asked in a low voice.
"I don't know if it's a performance," Zhong Qing lowered his head and couldn't even make his mouth movements visible when he spoke: "But this situation is a bit too black and white, and it's hard for me to swallow."
"Black and white?"
"The management organization that usually only collects taxes and doesn't care about matters, after something happened, faced with a person who was thinking about the public, they were suspicious and suppressed, and even hinted that he caused the mutation." Zhong Qing glanced at Lin Sanjiu.
, his tone remained calm. "If this were a TV series, I would think the plot is too cliche. If you remove all the preconceptions about both parties, what facts will you get?"
He turned his eyes away and did not continue.
He doesn't need to go on. If you remove the adjectives such as "only collect money and do nothing" and "respected", only the most basic and naked facts are left in front of you: after investigation, the local management organization found
An evolutionist is behaving suspiciously.
Lin Sanjiu bit her lip and retorted after a long time: "...What Guihe said may not be the truth."
At this time, Batou De just sighed and put down his arms. The expressions of the evolutionaries surrounding him were slightly relaxed - Batou De had obviously listened to the persuasion.
How is this possible?
Lin Sanjiu's keen intuition had saved her countless times, but it always conveyed the same signal to her: Batou De's emotions were both strong and real.
She herself struggled with anxiety and panic, ran, and tried her best to protect her friends. She must have been just as stubborn and stubborn at that time, and she might even look simple and stupid to outsiders. She didn't need to use reason to analyze, and she was able to communicate with others.
Badou De's emotions resonated.
Here's the problem: when she put aside her keen intuition and started to analyze rationally, she had to admit that Zhong Qing's words made sense.
Badou De's behavior really cannot be explained by the phrase "concern leads to chaos". He is not a real fool. If he sees a young man's eyes injured, he will be so sad; then there are hundreds of ordinary people in Xichengkou
Life, how come it never entered Batou De’s mind?
Even if you really care about the young man too much, there is no reason to let him go to Xichengkou. If the injury is just a coincidence, then he should be allowed to stay. There are all evolutionists here, and maybe someone has something that can heal the injury.
You can lend him something for use; if the injury is not a coincidence, it is better to keep him with the evolvers than to let him go among the ordinary people, right?
"Okay," Batou De, who was not far away, was saying to several people around him at this time: "Since you all think this can be done..."
"Of course," Nika said, seeing that the situation didn't have to go to the worst possible step, with a look of gratitude on her face, "Don't worry, we won't watch Guihe act recklessly."
It was obviously Guihe who discovered the suspicion, but he was actually playing the role of a bad guy, Lin Sanjiu thought a little uncomfortable.
If it weren't for Zhong Qing's reminder, she would not have been aware of the split and misalignment between Badou De's emotions and behavior; now it seems that other evolutionists have not doubted him - as a group animal, humans have strong emotions for the same kind.
Really, he would be more or less aware of it. That's why when he let the young man with the injured eye go, Dreadlock's first reaction was "It seems that the young man is not a mutant" rather than "There is something wrong with Badou De".
"Okay," Batou De said again, "then let's go."
The ordinary people heading to Xichengkou just now all walked to the right after passing Lin Sanjiu; Batou De had been calming the evacuated people before, so he stood on the left hand side of Lin Sanjiu - the other evolutionaries were all standing
To her right. At this time, everyone was going to Xichengkou, so naturally they had to go to the right together.
On the right... These two words stuck in Lin Sanjiu's mind for some unknown reason. The city road on the right turned a corner about ten meters away, and it was very quiet.
Nika turned around first, glanced at the two people standing quietly on the roadside, and said hello to them, "You will be fine, let's go." Then she walked to the right - when she walked out three
At the fourth step, Lin Sanjiu suddenly rushed forward from behind.
Nika was startled by the sound of the wind and turned around, subconsciously raising her hand to block it; however, Lin Sanjiu's speed was far beyond her reaction speed, and he had already grabbed her arm and pulled her back hard -
In the smooth and silent city road, an angry exclamation suddenly sounded: "What are you doing!"
Until Nika stood firm, nothing happened in the city road, and even Lin Sanjiu himself was a little surprised.
Did she guess wrong?
"Wait a minute, let me go over and take a look, I feel something is wrong." She said without looking back, and the [Protective Force Field] lit up. When she walked along the wall and walked around the corner cautiously,
Several evolvers behind her became quiet, but Nika followed her angrily and asked: "What do you want to see--"
Immediately, a gasp of air rang out from the city road.
...you guessed it right.
In the city road ahead, a huge pink and white armor completely blocked the way. Because it was stretched too long, it was twisted and crooked, like a rotten but hard flower, stacked and spiraling in the center of the city road; every time
The edges of the layers shone with a faint cold light.
"It's just as I thought," Lin Sanjiu said: "We don't know when we were blocked here. No wonder the surroundings suddenly became so quiet."
Nika looked at it, then looked down at her nails, her face turned ugly.
"Yes, is he the person with an injured eye just now?" She murmured, "It must be him. He has learned to be smart. He has put on a part that doesn't matter even if he is injured, and no one else can see it...
"
It wasn't just Nika - including Lin Sanjiu, everyone turned their heads when they heard footsteps slowly coming up from behind.
Probably everyone noticed who was coming up at this time.
Batou De looked up and down for a while at the mutants blocking the road in front of him, looked at everyone, and smiled. After opening his wide mouth, he revealed his neat white teeth and said, "Now, we can't go to Xichengkou.
