Besides, for now, this small team of twelve people, the leader seems to be a waste.
She is always responsible for the safety of these people.
"Besides, the perception ability of xenomorphs is very strong, and if people hide near here, they will definitely be perceived by it, and it will not appear at that time, so it is better to use monitoring."
Thubin was speechless.
Waiting for the guards to carry the half-body of the Tibetan mastiff over, Ding Naiqing connected the equipment of the two parties together, and the group got on a helicopter and flew to the temporary headquarters of their team.
On the plane, the noisy sound of the propeller covered everything, and in the noise-proof helmet, Ding Naiqing and Tu Ran were connected by a single wire.
Ding Naiqing: "Sister Ran, why do you want to go, isn't it more convenient for us to stay on the farm?" It also saves time running back and forth. ”
Tu Ran was clasping his hands around his chest, lazily leaning on the chair and closing his eyes, he didn't even bother to open his eyes when he heard this, and said sarcastically, "Because I'm cowardly." ”
She's really cowardly.
But Ding Naiqing won't believe it.
He grinned, "Sister Ran, what are you kidding?" ”
Tu Ran sighed in his heart.
The original body is almost Ding Naiqing's idol, the idol filter is there, and she says that anything that might break the filter will be considered a joke.
"I think it's very risky to spend the night on the farm, and we don't know how many xenomorphs there are on the farm, or what means they can possess humans."
Tu Ran explained word by word, "If you can possess yourself just by contact, then we stay on the farm overnight, and when we sleep at night, it is the most difficult to prevent, and it is easy to give different species a chance, we two have experience and may be able to find out in time, but it is very dangerous to follow our guards." ”
After Tu Ran's words, Ding Naiqing suddenly realized, nodded approvingly, and threw a very admiring look at Tu Ran, "Sister Ran is really thoughtful." ”
Because she was afraid that she would be wiped out if she didn't think about it properly.
When the destination arrived, the helicopter was ready to land, and in this interval, Tu Ran connected to Ding Naiqing's headset, "You go and ask them how they live at night, whether they live together or separately?" ”
"Why do you ask this?" Ding Naiqing blinked, curiously asked.
"You asked them first, and I will talk to you in detail in the evening, and besides, you must not be too deliberate when asking, just pretend to be small talk, you know?"
"Got it." Ding Naiqing nodded obediently.
After the helicopter landed, Tu Ran was the first to get off the plane and walked towards the hotel that had been prepared for their fourth team.
Ding Naiqing did not follow her, but mixed among the ten guards and called him a brother.
Compared to Tu Ran, who was cold and didn't talk much, this group of guards preferred this harmless-looking young man, and they quickly got together.
The task assigned to him by Tu Ran was also completed quickly.
Eight o'clock in the evening.
At the hotel's restaurant, Tu Ran and Ding Nai counted a few local specialties.
It looks like it has all the color, flavor, and taste, and the texture of the chew has been tried to be as similar as possible, but the taste is not satisfactory, and the soul of the original ingredients is missing.
Tu Ran chewed mechanically.
"Sister Ran, they said they lived in their own way. The federal government of Regacon also arranged a room for them," Ding Naiqing said, "What the hell is going on?" So mysterious? ”
Tu Ran swallowed the "boiled pork slices" in his mouth that were more unpalatable than the insole, and wiped the corners of his mouth, "Why are you mysterious?" I'm just worried that the guards who have left our sight are also possessed by xenomorphs, in case they are mixed together, won't it become a breeding ground for xenomorphs, so I asked you to go and investigate, and if they are mixed, find a way to separate them. ”
"I see," Ding Naiqing suddenly realized again, plus his affirmation of Tu Ran, "Sister Ran, you are really thoughtful." ”
Tu Ran: "......"
She no longer knew that this was the first time she had heard the affirmation of herself from Ding Naiqing's mouth, and she was already numb.
"Then you eat, I'm going to rest." Tu Ran stood up and turned to leave.
But suddenly I caught a glimpse of a familiar figure, it was Xie Xu.
He was also eating, his short dark hair was still a little messy, and there was even a little tugging up to the sky, which was completely different from his serious face.
At this time, the two looked at each other, and Tu Ran didn't know if she should go over to say hello.
After all, he saved her life under He Luowei's hands, and she wanted to thank her at that time, but she disappeared after she came out after changing her clothes, and she met once in the conference room, which was by no means a good time to say thanks.
At this time, it was a good opportunity to thank him, but Tu Ran didn't want to move.
She always felt that this Xie Xu was very shrewd, and shrewd to the point of being a little dangerous.
She was an impostor, and she didn't dare to go over.
So Xie Xu just glanced at her, and then lowered his head.
Probably didn't recognize her? Tu Ran was overjoyed, it was okay if she didn't recognize her, just forget her.
Tu Ran was about to leave the place quickly, however, the communicator on her wrist rang one step ahead of her.
Tu Ran looked down and saw that it was a message.
Two simple words: "Come here".
Sender: Xie Xu, a senior member of the Institute.
Tu Ran: "......"
Why did she feel like she met a primary school student who pretended not to see it by the head teacher, but was finally found by the head teacher and called to be trained?
Moving her steps, Tu Ran walked to the opposite side of Xie Xu and sat down with difficulty, and there were countless possibilities in her mind for Xie Xu to call her over.
Pulling out a decent smile, Tu Ran asked, "What is the matter with Xie Research Institute looking for me?" ”
Xie Xu put down the chopsticks in his hand, and his slender fingers felt natural and very pleasing to the eye.
"Didn't your group go to Fengli County? Why is it here? Xie Xu spoke, his voice was indifferent, and his eyebrows and eyes were cold.
Tu Ran secretly said that this guy wouldn't think that their group was fishing, right?
"The two of us are in charge of the farm investigation of Mr. Kenny Igan in Fengli County, according to our investigation, there is more than one reptilian xenomorph in this farm, but we don't know how many xenomorphs are hiding there, for the safety of the team members, I chose to go back to the headquarters at night for the night." Tu Ran explained unhurriedly.
Xie Xu frowned, his face solemn, "Reptilian Snakes? This type of xenomorph is the most fertile, producing hundreds of offspring a day during the breeding season. ”
Tu Ran thought to Ling Ran, "Then Kenny Igan's farm still has to be investigated?" ”
Now should be their breeding season, how many humans can survive the farm in such a night?
The risks outweigh the benefits, and there is no longer a need to investigate.
Xie Xu naturally understood the implication of her words, pondered for a while, and said: "Then investigate, find the first xenomorph that entered the farm, it is very valuable for research, as for manpower, I will assign two experienced pioneers from my side to assist you in your investigation." ”
