CHAPTER XXXV

The man's expression changed, obviously he didn't expect that there was such a thing as an alarm in this little broken bookstore. He pushed the fat boss away and pounced on Chen Yan. Lily grabbed a chair and threw it over, but the man quickly dodged and kicked him down. Lily fell to the ground and appeared unconscious.

Chen Yan slammed into the booth in a panic while dodging, and in the short time of delay, the man stabbed the short knife in his hand into her heart.

She was in a hurry, "Academy! I know where it is." The tip of the knife stopped in front of her, "Where?

Chen Yan looked at the fat boss, who nodded slightly to her, indicating that he understood what she meant and answered at any time. Chen Yan pretended to be scared, and his voice became smaller and smaller, "I, I've been to that place, it's very close, it's in ......"

"Tell me where it is! Hurry up!" The blade had already pressed against her neck, cutting through the outer skin, and blood was pouring out.

Chen Yan screamed, pretended to be scared and sat on the ground, waved his hands wildly, touched the alarm button, and pressed it hard. The man didn't watch out, and suddenly heard the alarm sound outside, and then he realized what was going on. But he didn't run away immediately.

The anger of being deceived made him not want to kill Chen Yan easily. He raised his short knife and plunged it into Chen Yan's thigh. Chen Yan had never been seriously injured before, she only saw the flash of the knife, and the last thought in her mind was that she hoped that the people who heard the alarm could be under martial law according to the procedure, especially the Academy of Sciences.

Then she felt a chill in her leg, a sharp pain came, and she screamed uncontrollably. The man admired her screaming, then slowly turned his wrist and licked the corners of his mouth.

Chen Yan only felt that the pain nerves were stretched to the limit, and his eyes were blackened with pain, and he only let out a miserable scream at the beginning, and then he could only take a big breath.

Hurt......

The man seemed to appreciate her pain, but it was those few seconds that deprived him of the chance to escape.

Just as he was about to give the poor little worm a hard time, he suddenly found himself being lifted. It was so fast that by the time he realized that he was being pinched by the neck and couldn't breathe, he heard someone say, "Colonel, live ......"

An icy voice rang out, "It's enough to have a brain." ”

Then he heard a "click" and reacted half a beat slowly, which was the sound of his neck bone shattering. The people next to him looked at Colonel Lance's anger that erupted all over his body, and he didn't dare to stop it at all, so he had to contact the military headquarters with a bitter face and ask them to quickly send a container for storing his brain.

Chen Yan saw Colonel Lance from his hazy vision and felt that he was dreaming. She struggled to point in one direction, "And the two of them......"

"They're all fine. You can rest assured. The medic was already on his way. Lance crouched down beside her, confirming that Chen Yan only had a non-fatal injury on his leg on his body, and finally relieved himself.

After he finished his mission, as soon as he returned to Yashu, he heard the sound of an alarm that resounded throughout the city, and somehow thought of this alarm with Chen Yan. If only it was a step too late...... For the first time, a feeling of fear filled Colonel Reims's brain. He gently took Chen Yan's hand and bowed his head and kissed it with great cherishment.

The people who came with him were checking the injuries of the fat boss and Lily, who were unattended, and accidentally saw this scene and couldn't help but widen their eyes. Who knew that the ruthless Colonel Reims would have a sweetheart!

Lance seemed to realize this, and turned his head to glance at it, and the meaning of the warning was self-evident. So he hurriedly lowered his head again to take care of the wounded, saying that he had not seen anything.

Eventually, the unknown man's brain was successfully removed - alive. Chen Yan and the fat boss were sent for emergency treatment, while Lily was fine, she was just knocked unconscious, so she was lucky not to be injured.

The atmosphere in the ward was tense.

Chen Yan injured his leg this time, although it was not fatal, but it was seriously injured - the wound was simply a hole. It is said that the medic was sweating profusely under the gaze of Colonel Reims to debride the wound, for fear that the wounded man would snort and that he would likely be slapped in the face.

This time the injury was useless in the medical cabin, so I could only keep it. So Chen Yan was admitted to the ward with a lame leg. After arranging other things, Lance came over with a gloomy face to "visit the sick".

In fact, Mei Na, who was following him, was more like someone who came to visit the sick, after all, they still had Chen Yan's dinner in their hands. But sadly, since she entered the house, Mei Na just stood aside with her meal, not daring to say a word.

"Colonel," Chen Yan said obediently, "I just want to go out and relax." I didn't expect this to happen, I'm sorry, I was wrong, I won't in the future. ”

"Tell me what's wrong. He sat down on the chair with a golden sword, and Chen Yan didn't even need to look up to feel the gaze projected on him.

"I shouldn't have gone out without a supervisor. ”

There was silence. Chen Yan blinked, wasn't it enough? So he pondered and meditated, "I...... I shouldn't have gone to an antiquarian bookstore, I should have stayed in a lab or a dorm. And also...... Well, should you carry a communicator with you ......?"

I really can't think of it. She looked pitifully at the Colonel, only to see that his eyes were almost spewing fire. So he shrunk his shoulders and wanted to make himself into a ball, but he had no choice but to drag his injured leg to the force.

"What did I say to you under the aircraft after the last mission?" his voice involuntarily raised an octave.

There were too many things to say, Chen Yan tried to recall, but fortunately, Lance was not prepared to give her a chance to answer this question.

"The most important thing now is your safety. Your body, your brain, your own security. Remember?"

"Yes. Chen Yan whispered.

"Then in the bookstore, why did you rush out when you knew what you were capable of! Don't you know that you almost died!?"

Mei Na had been prepared for the head to instantly transform into a roaring body, and calmly stood still.

Chen Yan was stunned by Lance's anger. In her impression, Colonel Lance had never lost his temper like this. After thinking about it, Chen Yan looked into Lance's eyes seriously, "I know, Colonel." I knew I couldn't beat that guy, and I even knew I might die. But I couldn't stand by and watch the owner of the bookstore struggle alone. If I just can't hide like that, maybe I can wait until he kills the boss and leave, and then I can sneak out and press the alarm. ”

Her eyes were drooping, distant and sad, but her long eyelashes were not curled, as stubborn as she was.

"But then I feel like life is better than death. When I have the ability to change this outcome, but I watch the lives of others die because I want to save my own lives without fail, I will hate myself for the rest of my life, and I don't know whether I will live with a clear conscience or die without a clear conscience. ”

"I'm sorry, Colonel. If I had to do it again, I'd still do it. ”

Lance looked helpless when he heard this. "Forget it, I won't let you happen to this in the future. ”

Mina quietly gave a thumbs up behind her: no one had ever made such a compromise before!

He took out Chen Yan's communicator and put it on for her personally, "You can't leave this in the future, wear it, and I will know if you are in danger." ”

Lance's fingertips ran over Chen Yan's slightly cool skin, bringing her a hint of warmth. "Well, I'll always wear it. Chen Yan nodded vigorously.

"Take care of her," Lance said to Mina, and hurried away. It seems that he is very busy right now, and he just took time out of his busy schedule.

Mina walked over and pressed it on the side of the bed, and immediately an automatic dining table protruded from the wall of the bed, making it easy for the injured to eat on the bed. Putting the lunch box that had been served for a long time on the table, looking at Chen Yan's pale face, she said worriedly, "What the boss said is right, this time is really too dangerous." I can understand the reason you said, but I was terrified when I heard the scene. That person was sent by the Red Brigades, and after special training, to kill you like this, one up to ten. ”

Chen Yan smiled good-naturedly. They were genuinely worried, but she also really had no choice. Mina could see it and sighed, "Okay, later...... Let's talk about that later, all you have to do now is take care of your legs. ”

There was an almost penetrating wound on that leg, although it could be recovered in less than ten days under modern medical techniques, it still looked quite scary, especially when it appeared on a weak technical soldier like Chen Yan.

"Asher has decided to start training the researchers, and by the time you've healed, you'll be ready to participate. ”

"I've never asked for this before?" Thinking of the recent frequent brain control intrusions, and even the infiltration of Ashur's interior by the Red Brigades, "Well, I also think it's really necessary." ”

Thinking of the physical training watch he took from Colonel Lance last time, Chen Yan was ashamed. The watch had been sitting in the corner of the dormitory, and had never been taken out and practiced.

Chen Yan actually didn't have much appetite, and whether the wound healed or not had nothing to do with what she ate. She eats slowly now purely out of habit, and this time is the meal.

As I ate, I remembered something, "By the way, what about the boss and Lily who were with me, how are they?"

"Don't worry, they're both fine. The bookstore owner's arm has been taken back, and it just takes time to recuperate. Lily was knocked unconscious, and the medic said she would be fine when she woke up. But that boss is really a powerful person, it turned out to be a special soldier, and he was injured and retired. His arm was swallowed by the beast. ”

Chen Yan looked at the dish he was eating, and suddenly it was a little difficult to swallow.

Lily didn't notice it at all, and for the people of the special mission force, these would not affect the appetite at all, and continued to say with great interest: "The one who was caught...... Brain, the military department is interrogating. Not only him, but several others were also tried. ”

"Why, there is more than one?"
