Chapter 22: Different Paths to the Same End
Xie Mimi forcibly changed the topic: "In short, if this group of cubs does everything with enthusiasm and does not consider the consequences, something will happen sooner or later."
Yan Jing said softly: "I just think you seem to be prejudiced against teenagers."
Xie Mimi thought of the scenes of countless worlds being pitted by bear children, and nodded from the heart.
Behind the thorns, the gray walls and chaotic steel bars of the research institute were exposed, and a large number of unknown plants grew in the ruins, and occasionally small animals ran past, startling up the dust.
Xie Mimi coughed twice, and stepped in first, followed by Yan Jing.
In fact, she had thought about entering through the main door, but it was already a mess, let alone a door, the shell of some huge creature creature crisscrossed the middle of the hall, crawling with vines.
The power system had long since been paralyzed, and the research institute was pitch black, like a trap waiting for its prey to fall into its net.
Xie Mimi turned on the flashlight and listened to Maya, who went around to the front to open the road, report the situation: "The stairwell is confirmed to be safe, and you can move forward."
Except for Vile, who was outside to take care of Angie, everyone else came in, and no one spoke, keeping a hundred times more vigilant.
"Be careful, the voice that Angie said shouldn't have been made by a human." Yan Jing didn't know when he leaned over.
Xie Mimi was a little unnatural and kicked open the skeleton at his feet.
It's not that, her analysis is as fierce as a tiger, of course, it proves that she already has a number, and she reminds him.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but the figure of the boy is indeed a lot wider.
Xie Mimi shook off those strange thoughts in his mind and handed Yan Jing a dagger: "Use this, in this case, the cold weapon is still easy to use."
At least something like an electromagnetic cannon not only can't be brought in, but it also hurts a companion.
"Thank you." Yan Jing squinted his eyes and slowly paced to Xie Mimi's side.
Xie Mimi held the knife and cut off the thorns next to him, and the two of them walked inside together, the surroundings were silent, only the sound of the two of them breathing.
"Maya, they're in charge of the first floor, let's search the second floor, I'm sure you can protect me, right?" Xie Mimi came behind Yan Jing confidently, completely without the demeanor of a reliable adult woman before.
Yan Jing knew her character, so she walked inside without saying a word, and there was a mission, the clerk became a martial artist, although it was what he imagined, but how did he feel weird.
He had the impression that Heather had been the pride of the sky since he was a child, the first in all grades in school, the certificate of merit was soft, he fought in the interstellar world at the age of sixteen, and won one lost planet after another for the empire, and the interstellar pirate organization folded in her hands was not a thousand but eight hundred.
And the woman in front of her reveals the breath of salted fish lying flat everywhere, if it weren't for this office, I'm afraid she would not be willing to go on a mission, and she would choose to eat at home all day and wait for death.
He didn't understand.
How can a person have two very different personalities.
Xie Mimi's back was cold, and when she saw the young man twisting her eyebrows, she patted him on the shoulder generously, and said earnestly: "I know you don't want to believe it, but idols are definitely different from their private lives on the surface, you have to accept it slowly, a real me."
"......" Yan Jing was silent.
Xie Mimi looked funny, and a bad taste came to her heart again: "You see that you can't even accept me in private, and you say that you like me, your liking is too superficial." ”
Yan Jingzhi didn't answer directly, and looked at her heavily: "I do admire Princess Heather."
didn't say that he accepted it or said he liked it, Xie Mimi deliberately said: "I am Heather."
Thinking about her scenery back then, she also felt that she was very good.
The end is also very miserable, she can still remember that glass of wine with a little fruity aroma, at that moment the internal organs seemed to be run over by a big truck, although there is a fresh way to die every time, but people are not saints and sages who are not afraid of pain, she is almost PTSD.
Xie Mimi is a little afraid of the dark, and the gloomy environment always reminds people of some restrictive film noir, and after so long, she still remembers that scene vividly.
So she began to run the train with her mouth full: "This body is also an orphan, hungry skin and bones when I first came, if I didn't pick up garbage everywhere, I wouldn't survive, and you don't know how evil some people are, they beat people for no reason, fortunately I have the foundation and turned them all into my little brothers, otherwise you wouldn't even be able to see me like this today."
"Also?" Yan Jing repeated.
"It doesn't matter." Xie Mimi said casually: "In short, people need to adapt to the environment, the glamorous and vigorous in the palace is because of the support of capital, in a place like Erliu District, where you eat people and don't spit out bones, Qinggao will only make you die faster."
She still understands the truth that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake.
The more she spoke, the more embarrassed Yan Jing became, mixed with a faint distress, he didn't know what she had experienced, he asked, "Then why don't you go back?"
Xie Mimi snorted: "There are too many enemies, do you want to go back and wait for death?"
"You're not a person who is afraid of death." Yan Jing knows her character very well, whether it is during the Heather period or here, she does not meet the words greed for life and fear of death at all.
Xie Mimi was stunned for a moment, revealing a little sadness, and said slowly: "I just don't want to go back."
She is very confident, her current expression is very story-telling, a little unfair fate, a little relief from breaking free from shackles, plus a little helplessness in the world, the rest depends on how the interrogator makes up for it.
In fact, she just doesn't like the red tape of the royal family, other brothers and sisters are playing in the mountains and rivers, she has to find life in the artillery fire, she reads books when people eat, she marries her to fight, she is seriously injured when she travels, and the donkeys on the farm are not so bitter.
She later found out the reason, that is, because her biological mother was a peasant girl from a marginal planet, she had no status, but none of the other members of the royal family were angry, and the emperor had to take her back.
In the name of the empire, it needs a benchmark, a signboard that the people can trust.
In fact, Xie Mimi also understands that she cannot become the successor of the emperor, but she is just a perfect tool person who can endure hardships and be obedient and does not need to be paid.
However, she ignored a problem, it was too dark, and Yan Jing didn't see her expression.
But he was unexpectedly silent.
Different means to the same end.
The corridors were long, dark and gloomy, and the institute was long gone, except for the unknown plants on the walls, and even if there were discarded instruments, it had become a nest for some small animals, and occasionally a stumbling reptile passed by.
There are codes on the doors on both sides, and the second floor is obviously where the various labs are located, and where those students are most likely to be.
However, they shouted many times and there was no response.
Atta came running from the front and whispered, "I found this in front, something is not quite right."
