Meanwhile.

Unknown location.

"I said, otherwise I'll go early, I don't worry too much about those two people, but the one named Chen Xiao, maybe he will die if he doesn't pay attention." The guy in the baseball cap muttered anxiously and paced around the room.

"How...... Are you afraid of his death? "A dark-skinned, scantily dressed woman was lying lazily on a nearby sofa, using a toothpick to tie the fruit on her plate and bring it to her mouth.

The baseball cap looked at the other party helplessly: "Of course I'm afraid of him dying, you know, if we get it done this time, we're going to the Pacific Division!" Don't you think it's very emotional!! ”

"Cut...... Anything that can cause trouble for the Foundation is something you can feel emotional. The dark-skinned woman glanced at him disdainfully.

"Of course! Otherwise, why do you think I'm staying here, do you really believe in that woman's so-called "salvation"?? I don't care what the world will become, all I want is to destroy the Foundation, and they have to pay for what they have done! ”

The dark-skinned woman shrugged her shoulders and didn't answer the conversation again, she knew that as long as it was about this issue, the man in front of her would become extremely paranoid, and the best thing to do at this time was to ...... Ignore him and let him yell.

That's when it happened.

The door to the room was pushed open. But Qiu Mujin did not walk in, but leaned against the door and looked at his watch calmly.

"What the hell did that kid Amin say to wait for?" The baseball cap yelled impatiently.

Qiu Mujin really ignored him, still looking at his watch, and after a while.

“3”

When the baseball cap heard the number, he finally exhaled and rubbed his hands.

“2”

“1”

As soon as the words fell

There was a "snap", as if a momentary vacuum suddenly appeared in front of me, and all the air suddenly closed due to the pressure, making a strange soft sound.

The man with the baseball cap, disappeared.

......

......

In this moment, many things happened.

Song Xuan's knife fell, and the knife rose again, cutting off the entire back of the female worm vertically from top to bottom.

The white bear threw the burning skeleton in his hand at the mother worm, the fat and sticky flesh was obviously the best raw material, and in an instant it burned into a raging sea of fire and devoured it.

Chen Xiao struggled, and with the last bit of strength, he stretched out his hand to the worm pile, trying to attract someone's attention, but immediately after, the consumption of the flesh and the side effects of invincible time drowned out the last trace of consciousness, and he passed out.

Song Xuan jumped away, dodging the flames, and the white bear rushed into the sea of fire and picked up his necklace that was extremely important to him.

No one noticed that the shriveled and feeble hand hung down weakly, as if all hope had been taken away from it.

But..... Thousands of miles away, a man was anxiously waiting for this hand.

So with a snap, a man appeared, and in the midst of the brood, which was blinded by the firelight, he fell out of thin air, as if he had been prepared to stick out his arm and grab it. Then it disappeared without a trace in an instant.

It's so fast that no one notices.

......

Meanwhile.

Seattle North is directly opposite the door of an apartment in the downtown area. The man wearing a baseball cap suddenly appeared, followed by Chen Xiao, who was almost breathless.

The man with the baseball cap was known as the "Postman" among the Insurgency, as he could teleport with other things, but he never dared to rush in and out of the "nurse's" room.

The reason for this...... It's so messy there, this time I entered, maybe I stepped on a beer bottle, one slipped, my stomach poked a pot of cactus, my hand was stabbed through by a fruit knife, and my face was just pasted with a freshly changed aunt's towel.

Well...... Yes, the nurse's room is so dangerous.

After the postman stood still, he glanced at the dying Chen Xiao and breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that as long as you get here, you won't have to worry about your life anymore.

He knocked on the door, then pushed it. Sure enough, the door was unlocked.

"I'm in!" The postman shouted, and dragged Chen Xiao in.

Kicked open a couple of beer cans and bypassed a trash can that had already overflowed.

At this time, the "nurse" also came out of the back room, her hair tied haphazardly behind her head, black-rimmed glasses that were out of date, wearing a baggy tank top, shorts, two matching slippers, and a can of beer in her hand.

"This guy is Chen Xiao?" She scratched her head, sleepy-eyed and asked. It seems that in the face of this bloody and terrifying scene, there is no panic.

"Yes, that's him." The man said casually, "I can't die." ”

"Of course you can't die!" The nurse asked knowingly: "It's just ...... The injury was too severe. ”

The postman turned his head, looked at Chen Xiao, who was strung into a sieve, his face was bloodless, and dragged his hand and shook it to make a note

……

No response.

"Hmm...... It seems to be quite heavy, how long will it take? He asked.

The nurse hesitated: "Three days ......"

The man with the baseball cap nodded.

The nurse said three days, that must be three days, although this woman is sloppy and outrageous, but it is undeniable that she has a good grasp of the time for the injury to heal.

Then the nurse took a sip of wine, as if something suddenly came to mind......

"So, when he's fully recovered, we're going to the Pacific Division?"

"Of course......" the baseball cap responded.

The nurse was silent for a moment......

"I'm going too?"

……

……

The man pursed his lips, as if he had been asked an extremely difficult question.

"I know it's hard for you...... But this time it's not a small operation, without your ......"

"Hmm!" The nurse interrupted the other party with a big grin: "I'm not a child, just call me when the time comes!" ”

She waved her hand with an indifferent expression: "This kid...... Just throw it away, and remember to close the door. ”

With that, she turned around in a pretending to be very dashing, poured the rest of the wine into her stomach, threw it away, and walked into her bedroom.

The guy with a baseball cap sighed, this woman, it seems that she doesn't care about anything, but everyone knows how much pain she suffers psychologically, she drinks because she doesn't dare to close her eyes casually, she doesn't go out, because she doesn't dare to face other people.

When she was rescued from the containment chamber, she was covered in a helmet scene and shrunk in a corner...... It's like you're scared of everything.

He didn't want to remember the torture they had inflicted on her, the inhumane acts they had done...... Maybe those people are heroes who save everything to this world, but in the eyes of some people, they are extremely cruel demons.

————————

Or that button, on one side is the so-called saving the world, and on the other side you have to endure endless pain.

Will you press it?

……

But no matter what you decide, the Foundation is the one who forced you to press it!
