Chapter 5 Calculation

Victor's face also became solemn at this time: "So what should we do?" Do you take the initiative or keep waiting? ”

Claude frowned: "Since it has been hiding in the shadows and not appearing, then even if we take the initiative to attack, we will not gain anything, and may even fall into its trap, so next, we should strengthen our defense and be careful against all possible accidents." ”

"What if it doesn't show up?" Victor was clearly a little disapproving.

"Then we'll keep defending!" For his old friend, Claude knew his character very well, so he explained: "Victor, I know that you want to take the initiative to nip all threats in the bud, but now that the enemy is in the dark, we are already at a disadvantage, and in the past few days, after counting the number of people, we found that four more people are missing, so in order to be safe, we must deal with it carefully." ”

"Then let it be arranged."

After listening, Victor finally sighed, but then he suddenly changed the conversation: "Speaking of missing people, today I met a young Asian man from a strange origin who claimed to be from China. ”

"Strange origins?" Hearing that Victor actually used this word to describe it, Claude suddenly straightened up and looked at him and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"I didn't find out until later." Victor frowned, pondered for a moment, and said, "Tony and I were looking for the mutant leopard about a kilometer away when we suddenly heard someone shouting for help, and then we cautiously leaned over to check the situation, and then we found a young Asian man standing on the rubble with a cower, shivering. ”

"At the time, I thought it was strange, more than three years have passed since the disaster in 2022, even the most timid person should be accustomed to everything outside, but looking at the appearance of that young man, it is exactly the same as when we first experienced the disaster!"

Hearing this, Claude's eyes suddenly lit up: "And then?" ”

"I was very puzzled by all this, and after that, I deliberately released kindness to him, and kept tempting with words, although he was vigilant and avoided most of the questions, but from his answers I still deduced some useful information."

"First, judging from his demeanor and performance, he should have seen or come into contact with the post-disaster world for the first time, second, he should have been living in an environment where there was no danger or relative comfort, third, he was proud of his identity, and finally, he came here alone."

"It can't be!"

As soon as his words fell, Claude on the other side couldn't help but shake his head and said: "Since the mutated N-1 agent spread all over the world, except for some parts of the Federation, I haven't heard of any other place where a safe living area can be established, and in all the safe areas of the Federation, the yellow race is not as high as the black people. ”

"That's why I'm confused, judging from his series of performances, my judgment should not be wrong, but everything we know so far does not match his situation, so I am making a bold guess, either there are some safe areas in the federation that are not known to us and are led by Chinese immigrants, or he came from China itself."

If Su Zijun heard all this, he would definitely be taken aback, even if he was careful and careful, he was still guessed by others.

"Your judgment should not be wrong, based on this consideration, I think the first possibility is more likely, after all, China is thousands of miles away from us, in the case of industrial shutdown and almost complete paralysis of various modern transportation facilities, it is impossible to safely cross the distance of tens of thousands of miles by a person!"

Victor agrees: "I also prefer to believe the first guess, although I don't know what his purpose is, but after thinking about it, I brought him back. ”

"Where is he now?"

Seeing that Claude seemed to be quite interested in him, Victor smiled: "I arranged him alone on the second floor. ”

Claude's eyes flashed slightly, and after a moment, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up a dangerous arc: "A young man who has always lived under care and has no ability to deal with danger can't run too far, that safe area should be in New York City, even right under our noses, you can take him to his compatriots later, perhaps, I have found a solution to our current predicament." ”

Victor's heart moved, as if he had thought of something, and then suddenly smiled: "Don't worry, I will take a good look at him." ”

About half an hour later, just when Su Zijun was bored and secretly wondering whether to go out quietly for a walk, Victor finally returned, and at the same time, he was still holding a bag of plastic bread and a bottle of mineral water in his hand.

"Oh Su Yuan, I'm really sorry, I delayed too much time when I handed over the task, give, this is the food I got for you, although it's not much, but it can finally fill your stomach."

Seeing Victor's apologetic face and handing him the bread and water in his hand, Su Zijun hurriedly thanked him: "Victor, thank you so much, but I'm not hungry yet, so I don't need these for the time being." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at the bread and water in the other party's hand, although they were written in English that he didn't know, but just by looking at the packaging, he could guess that this bread was probably the kind that sold in the supermarket for two or three yuan and was super unpalatable, and the water was probably worth a dollar and a tael.

And even though his life is difficult, he never eats that thing, for no other reason, it's just so unpalatable!

Although he hid his expression well, he still couldn't escape Victor's eyes, and looking at the imperceptible resistance shown by Su Zijun, he was even more sure of the thoughts in his heart.

"You don't need to be too polite, although these are not good things, they are not so easy to get, of course, if there are better options, naturally they will not look down on this thing."

Victor's seemingly simple words contain not only two potential messages, but also implied temptation.

Su Zijun was not stupid, so he quickly understood the hidden meaning of his words, but he didn't have much experience, so he didn't notice the other party's temptation, and after thanking him again, he accepted the thing and then put it on the bed.

Seeing this, a hint of pride flashed in Victor's eyes, but he recovered in an instant, and said with a smile: "You must feel depressed here, how about I take you to meet your compatriots?" ”
