Chapter 22: Zero

Clouds of smoke rolled up in the valley, and he stood on the rock wall of the valley overlooking below, silently waiting for the danger that might arise, and after a minute, Zhou He jumped down the valley.

"Bang dang!"

The heavy metal plate was cut open by him and smashed to the ground, crushing the raised rocks on the ground.

Zhou He carried a sodium magnetic gun, held a winged knife, and looked into the carriage vigilantly, there seemed to be no one in this transport car, it was full of metal wires entwined together, or small flowing blue ** hoses, the red lights of the alarm flashed around the carriage, and the place where the silk wires were connected was a metal horizontal cabinet erected close to the front of the car, and a layer of transparent glass cover was up, which may be the cause of the violent tumbling collision, causing it to have traces of cracking.

Driven by curiosity, he walked towards it step by step, but he was wary, maybe something dangerous?

"What could it be?"

He thought, looking into the transparent glass shell, looking through the glass layer, inside was a naked girl, preliminarily judged, about three to five years old, her eyes were closed and curled up in the cabinet, the fine silk needles pierced its young body, because the carriage rolled, causing those silk threads to entangle and tear, strangled her delicate skin out of the blood, and even wrapped around her tiny neck, the oxygen mask was also broken off, she seemed to sense something, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly.

"She's alive!"

Damn it!

Angry anger surged up, and Zhou He punched the wall of the carriage, denting the metal plate: it must be their test subject, right?

War should have been avoided by women and children, but its true face is cruel and outrageous.

"I'm going to get her out!"

Zhou He put away his weapon and looked around, there must be a button to open this metal cabinet, but soon, he observed that the girl's breathing became rapid, and a thin layer of mist appeared in the glass layer.

Out of oxygen?

He thought, inexplicably impatient.

Her hands and feet began to twitch slightly, as if in pain, her facial muscles twitched, her eyes opened, and then closed in pain, she had the same eyes as humans, black pupils····· She is truly a human child!

Thinking about it, he grabbed the winged knife again, and gently cut the glass layer with the blade, not daring to use too much force, for fear of breaking the glass and stabbing the child.

First, cut a small hole in the glass cover that you can put your hand into, then clasp it with your left hand, continue to cut with the wing knife with your right hand, and then carefully remove the glass cover that was already cracked.

With a gentle movement, he untied the thread around the girl's neck, then carefully removed the needle that had been inserted into her skin and carried her out of the cupboard.

It seemed that the pain had lessened, and her convulsive facial expression had gradually calmed down.

"Is it the father?"

Her eyelashes twitched slightly, and she opened her eyes again, her immature voice was a little weak, and her watery eyes stared at him, as if she was thinking, but more of a dazed and helpless reveal.

He looked away, the metal hood folded up, revealing his face, and then with his free hand, he wiped his face away from all the dirt and blood from it, he feared that his face would scare her.

"Yes."

Zhou He turned his head and smiled gently, because he rubbed too hard, his face was slightly red, hiding his weakness, he didn't dare to tell her the truth.

"Father? What is it? ”

She looked at Zhou He blankly, and then asked in a childish voice, "Did you let me be born, father?" ”

"Hmm."

He nodded unnaturally, thinking about what the little girl meant by what she said, could it be that her memory was lost?

"It hurts!"

Her voice trembled slightly, and tears rolled down her eyes with a look of pain in her big clear eyes.

"Where?"

Zhou He looked at her nervously: "Where does it hurt?" ”

"Here."

She lifted her tiny arm and pointed to her head.

Zhou He will order the star core to take off the gloves of the battle armor, and then gently stroke her delicate short hair with his hand: "Is this it?" ”

But soon, his gaze froze, revealing a bit of anger, under the cover of his hair, there was a slight red line cut, he lifted her hair, looked around her head, and became more and more angry in his heart.

Her skull had been cut open!

He was sure that it was definitely a stitched mark, even if it was very subtle.

"What's wrong?"

She looked at Zhou He nervously.

"Does it still hurt?"

His fingertips gently brushed the thin scar after the stitches, and Zhou He said softly.

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

She shook her head gently, staring at Zhou He, slightly nervous: "I'm sorry, father." ”

"What's wrong?"

Zhou He straightened her hair.

"I lied... It doesn't hurt. ”

She pointed to her head, and her immature face showed an innocent smile: "Father." ”

"Well, it doesn't hurt."

"Let's go, I'll get you out of here."

He stepped out of his armor and took off the leather clothes he was wrapped in, wrapping her petite body, if not, he would go out later, it would be cold and windy outside, and he was afraid that he would freeze out.

Zhou He put on his armor again, hugged her, and walked out of the carriage.

"Do you remember your name?"

He talked to her as he walked.

"Zero."

She said, staring at him with clear eyes.

Numbered?

Or maybe she hadn't lost her memory, he thought?

But he didn't think deeply, turned his head to look at the abandoned transport cart in the valley, and strode away, not daring to fly in the armor, he was afraid that she would not be able to stand it.

Give her to Zhang Ling after you go back?

He thought, and so he planned, that they were warriors on the human front, and that they should be able to raise her.

"Will my father leave me?"

She stared at Zhou He, her mouth curled, with a hint of trilling.

He shook his head, did not answer, did not deny.

"Starcore, check her physical condition."

He said to the star nucleus in his brain.

"There is an abnormality in the brain, undetectable, no other damage, and the index is normal."

Is there an abnormality in the brain?

Undetectable?

Zhou He frowned, and then looked at her in his arms, as if he had fallen asleep because of fatigue, and there was a wet mark in the corner of his eye.

When I returned to the parking position of the transport truck, it was already dark, and I was really exhausted and tired at the end of the day. He thought he should get some sleep.

Although today there is nothing to gain.

"Coming back?"

Zhang Ling greeted softly.

"Hmm."

He nodded faintly, and after the tailgate of the car closed, he took off his armor, revealing a semen-like body, but it was already full of coagulated blood scabs, because of the overload of flight, his skin was torn many times, but it was okay, it was not fatal, but if there was a next time, if he was injured and did not heal, his body might completely collapse due to the weight of the overload.
