Chapter VI Places of Detention

Qiao Erlan didn't know why, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Lu Jianian shook his head slightly, "Follow me." Then he didn't wait for Joellan to say yes or not, and walked straight away.

Joellan went through all the guesses in her head, and soon kept up with his unhurried pace.

Tonight seemed a little different, a cool breeze blowing across Jollan's cheeks and picking up a few strands of hair that she had put down. In normal times, Joellan likes to tie up all her flaxen-colored hair, making her face more and more small. And tonight, because she had just been sleeping, she had already lowered her hair and spread it on her shoulders. Finely fragmented, scattered.

She had long known that Lu Jianian would go out as soon as everyone fell asleep in the past three days, but she didn't know what to do when she went out. Although the guards in the internment area were not strict, they did not allow him to enter and leave the no-man's land. But he didn't have an accident for three days, but he underestimated him.

Lu Jianian walked ahead and led her to a road that was too remote to find. Qiao Erlan cautiously looked at the dark path and memorized the route around her, the two of them did not say a word all the way, and their steps were as light as possible.

After crossing a winding path overgrown with weeds and stepping through a few dirt patches, the man leading the way in front of him stopped.

Lu Jianian's tone brought a bit of joy, as if he had found a treasure that he had been looking for for a long time: "This is it." ”

Qiao Erlan was still a little confused, and when she followed Lu Jiannian's gaze, she realized that there was a small waterhole here.

Clarity and calmness.

Lu Jianian turned his head to look at Qiao Erlan and walked over.

Qiao Erlan also hurried to follow.

"Miss, I've checked that the water here is clean, you can go down and take a bath."

"How did you do it, no one was spying on us?" Frowning, hidden beneath the puzzled expression is deep scrutiny.

"But put down a few mercenaries."

“…… Well done, good. Qiao Erlan was stunned by her natural tone, and after answering, she didn't know what to do. It turns out that he sacrificed his sleep time just to find himself a "bathroom"?

Although the cyborg of the Jolandis does not sleep and dream, it does sleep in order to adjust its indicators more accurately, etc.

"I'll stand farther away and wait for you to come out." Lu Jianian knew how to avoid it, and there was no superfluous explanation. Unhurriedly, he turned around and left.

It was the direction in which it came, and Joellan recognized it.

Seeing that he was about to stop, Qiao Erlan also felt almost the same, so he took off his clothes near the small waterhole and went into the water.

In the past few days, Qiao Erlan's mental state has been tighter than anyone else's, for fear that something will happen if he is not careful, and now he is alone in this small pool, and his mind can't help but be a little calmer and lighter. The two of them spent seven days safe and sound, and although it was not a terrible treatment of the captives, at least there was no torture such as whipping, but the food in the internment was so bad that even the slightest pursuer could not eat it. Joellan falls into this category.

Because of the food problem in the detention place, Qiao Erlan's originally ruddy complexion began to turn pale, and she couldn't eat, eat, or dress warmly, which was really a good place to torture people. Qiao Erlan felt that he didn't have much meat in the first place. I can't help but feel a little annoyed: even if I can't eat it, I should force myself to swallow it!

Joellan glanced hurriedly at the back in front of her. Lu Jianian stopped nearby, not knowing what he was messing with. Knowing that the aroma of food wafted from him, Qiao Erlan swallowed. Three times five divided by two, and they cleaned themselves up.

Lu Jianian seemed to have a vague smile on his lips, but it became blurred under the cover of night. "Miss, are you hungry?"

Joellan nodded and sat down on the stone. I went out to get water and something to eat.

Lu Jianian found something that could be eaten directly without having to deal with it, and he didn't know how far away he had picked some fresh and sweet fruits. Qiao Erlan didn't know him, and not much of them didn't affect Qiao Erlan's love for them and her impress.

When Qiao Erlan was eating, Lu Jianian was not idle, and the food he was looking for needed to be peeled.

Thinking that although his young lady couldn't stand not taking a bath for a week, she never mentioned it to herself, Lu Jianian was really a little frustrated, and it seemed that she was not competent enough. At least, the trust of the owner has not yet been gained.

"Miss, give." But don't rush this kind of thing, take your time.

Looking at her action of reaching out to pick up the food, Lu Jianian still had some confidence in her heart: it was good that she didn't refuse.

After cleaning herself and eating hot and delicious food, Joellan felt that this was the best time to do it lately.

When you're in a good mood, it's easy to find something to do, such as asking the mysterious people around you, "How did you find here?" ”

"I've been looking for water these days, and it's not what a qualified robot should do to give the owner the most basic protection."

“…… Well. So you ......"

"So Miss, congratulations. You'll be free soon. ”

……

After Qiao Erlan returned to the cave, he didn't understand Lu Jianian's strange words, so he simply didn't want to, since he said so, there must be a reason for him. Knowing too much might ruin his plans.

The next day, when it was already dawn, Qiao Erlan woke up, and the warm light shrouded her body, comfortable and comfortable.

"Why don't you wake me up?" In the past, it was Lu Jianian who called her, and she would wake up. Qiao Erlan really doesn't have the kind of excellent physiological alarm clock that will wake up automatically when the time comes. And...... Joellan found out how she slept at the entrance of the cave, and it was no wonder that although she felt comfortable, something was wrong. It's been a long time since the sun has shone, right? It's been seven or eight days.

The mercenaries' processing plants were completely enclosed, and they were forced to leave early and return late, so they could not enjoy the daylight at all.

Joellan has always been a person who has a very high alertness despite her uncertain sleeping time, and she did not feel danger in her dreams, but was a little lax because of last night's events.

In fact, this also reflects that Qiao Erlan began to trust Lu Jianian, a strange "gift" that is said to be given by her father. A lot of things happened back then, and now that I think about it, it's very likely that he was sent by his father. He did have a familiar smell on him. Otherwise, how could he get into his home as a robot? In the case of no signs of destruction at home.

"Miss, did you sleep well last night?" No rhetorical questions.

"In fact...... Very good. A smile welled up at the corners of his mouth.

The two cleaned up for a while and quickly left the cave. Hopefully won't come back.

The two of them walked a long way, and it was already afternoon, and the sun was fierce and fierce at this time.

Lu Jianian had already taken Qiao Erlan to the deep forest. The shallow water and fish leap to the site, surrounded by wooded scenery.

The sun is dappled and the shadows of the trees are sparse.

Joellan sat down by the stream.

"What the hell is going on?" Qiao Erlan took a sip of water and drank it clean.

"Last night, I ...... Something was put in the lady's food. After being silent for a while, Lu Jianian decided to confess.

"......" Qiao Erlan was also silent for a while before speaking: "Function." ”

“…… It can put humans into a deep sleep. ”

"What else?"

"Last night, after the onset of your drug, ......" Joellan glared at Lu Jiannian, successfully making him change his words, "Someone planned a battle shortly after you fell asleep, and it was already successful. It was planned by those who came to us a long time ago. ”

"Exact time."

"Take advantage of the night, before the dawn when the human body is most tired."

Joellan snorted almost inaudibly.

It turned out that those captives were a military force subordinate to the emperor's ** team before they were free. It may be that the tiger fell into Pingyang and was bullied by dogs and unfortunately caught, but these mercenaries were also very bold, and they did not kill them, but enslaved them like civilians and made them do very hard and tiring work.

Coincidentally, although the highest-ranking person in the team was killed, there were still people who had the ability to organize them. These soldiers who were treated as prisoners finally lived up to the honor of the emperor, successfully annihilated all the mercenaries guarding them, and rescued their "fresh" prisoners.

After knowing the whole thing, Qiao Erlan's sneer became even stronger.

“…… So, are we still on the run? ”

Lu Jianian didn't answer, but his eyes had already explained it.

Oh, no wonder this guy didn't keep up with the big team...... Are you worried that you will be arrested......

Looks like a good one. Otherwise......

"Have all the mercenaries around here been caught?" Joellan asked casually.

Lu Jianian was unexpectedly silent.

The atmosphere seemed to freeze. Although Qiao Erlan knew that Lu Jianian could not casually reveal his identity as a robot, otherwise he would be in danger, after all, there were only people from the Imperial Research Institute until Lu Jianian's true identity. But now...... I don't think it's any better.

Suddenly, there was a movement in the path where the two of them came.

Qiao Erlan breathed a sigh of relief, and glanced at Lu Jianian, who immediately picked up Qiao Erlan and flew away.

The speed simply exceeds the limits of humans.

This deep forest is large and the environment is quiet, and even if you walk quickly, you can smell the damp and fishy smell that pervades here.

The two of them ran wildly for five hours and did not reach the end, but more like they had come to the center of the deep forest.

The blackened green leaves completely obscured the daylight overhead, and it was getting late.

"Let's rest here first, they can't catch up with us for the time being." Qiao Erlan yelled against the wind, and her voice shattered behind her.

Lu Jianian immediately slowed down and prepared to stop.

After he had stood firm, he put Joellan down and carefully placed it on the flat ground.

Both of them tidied up their outfits first. Only then did Joelan realize that this robot also loved to be clean and tidy. Well, that's good, I like it.

"They won't find us anytime soon, and the paths I just took were all paths that were hard to spot."

"Well done." A slight smile, with a bit of playfulness.
