Xu Qinglang stood in front of the sink for a long time, only to feel a faint pain in his head, which seemed to be gradually worsening.

I don't know if it's because of the frequent use of mental power during this time, his headaches have become more frequent, and even the pain in the remission period seems to be more unbearable than before.

Xu Qinglang closed his eyes and eased.

A few drops of water slid down his hair to the ends of his hair, and they dripped on the sink with a few clicks, making Xu Qinglang's drooping eyelashes tremble twice.

After a long time, he let go of his hand and stood up straight, but there was a deep exhaustion in the depths of his open eyes, and the bottom of his eyes seemed to be red with pain.

The sound of rushing water rang out in the bathroom.

The warm water briefly suppressed the headache, but it also made Xu Qinglang more awake.

After taking a shower, instead of going to sleep, he pushed open the door to his room and prepared to go out on deck and observe the neighborhood.

first encountered a sneak attack by a sea monster, and then a large-scale bird monster attack the next day, such a frequent encounter with mutant species made Xu Qinglang feel uneasy in his heart.

There seems to be an increasing number of mutant species, and there seems to be a growing hostility towards humans.

The sea was calm, Xu Qinglang held on to the railing and looked at the dark sea in the distance, then turned around and walked to the laboratory, and took out the glass bottle with two tears handed over to him by Jiang Yu during the day.

The laboratory equipment on the ship was incomplete, and Xu Qinglang planned to wait until he returned to the base to do the test, but since he couldn't sleep now, he might as well do something meaningful.

In the laboratory in the middle of the night, the sound of the operation of experimental instruments was heard.

After a long time, Xu Qinglang got the results of the experiment, and he quickly read the results at a glance and ten lines, and his brows frowned slightly.

The results of the experiment showed that these two tears were ordinary tears, without any special ingredients and effects in them.

Xu Qinglang thought about it, his spiritual power turned into a thin sharp blade, cut a small wound on his fingertips, and extracted a small tear and stained it on the wound.

The wound did not change, nor did it heal as quickly as the wound on his arm during the day.

- How could it not be useful?

Xu Qinglang pressed the wound on his fingertips, the wound was very shallow, and he didn't even shed much blood, and soon there was a tendency to scab.

He was sure that it wasn't his delusion that the wound healed quickly during the day, and since that was the case, it only meant that tears could heal the wound and there was a triggering condition.

Or maybe it's ......

What really heals wounds is not tears at all, but something else.

Xu Qinglang thought about it for a long time, but he still didn't have a clue.

The only thing he was sure of was that whatever the trigger or something else was, it had something to do with Jiang Jin.

There were still a few tears left in the bottle, Xu Qinglang put the bottle away, and prepared to take it back to the base and find time to study it carefully.

The ship is very quiet late at night, only the control room and the monitoring room, and occasionally there is some movement.

After leaving the laboratory, a little sleepiness finally hit, and Xu Qinglang walked in the direction of his room.

The moonlight was dim, but it couldn't completely block his vision.

In the dark night, Xu Qinglang saw a dark shadow at the door of the room, about half a person tall, and leaned against his door motionless.

Xu Qinglang's heart sank, and he subconsciously thought that the mutant species had broken into the boat, and the spiritual power in his palm quickly gathered and was ready to go, but after he saw the true appearance of the black shadow, it dispersed in an instant.

The dark shadow was none other than the owner of those two tears.

Xu Qinglang's heart suddenly let go, he took two steps forward and shouted softly: "Jiang Yao? ”

Jiang Jin, dressed in slightly thin clothes, was curled up in front of the door of his room, his hands clasped around his knees, his head resting on the cold metal door, his long hair scattered behind him, slightly messy by the sea breeze.

As if hearing Xu Qinglang's voice, the young man's long eyelashes trembled, his closed eyes slowly opened, and he looked up at the tall figure in front of him.

Xu Qinglang squatted slightly, so that the young man would not have so much difficulty looking at him.

"Why are you here?" Xu Qinglang asked in a low voice, "Did you come here by yourself?" ”

Jiang Jin nodded, his bloodless face was even paler in the dark night, and his lips, which were also light-colored, were slightly hooked, revealing a soft and shallow smile at the man.

Jiang Jin's room was on the same floor as Xu Qinglang's, but there was a short distance between them, and dragging his injured body over was not an easy task for the young man.

Xu Qinglang frowned slightly, took off the white coat on his body and draped it on Jiang Jin's body, blocking him from the cool sea breeze at night.

Immediately, his fingertips fell on the hem of Jiang Yao's shirt, and he gently lifted it a little, and saw that the bandage on the other party's waist was still neat, not scattered and not oozing blood, so he was relieved.

"In the middle of the night, why don't you sleep in the house and run around?" Xu Qinglang asked, "It's not safe at night." ”

The young man pursed his lips, as if realizing that Xu Qinglang was a little angry, and raised his hand to gently tug at his sleeve.

As if realizing something, Xu Qinglang asked, "Are you here to find me?" ”

Jiang Yao nodded, lowered his head and rubbed his face on the back of Xu Qinglang's hand, as if he felt that the temperature on the other party's body was very comfortable, and after he rubbed it again, he simply stuck to it.

The young man's face was icy, like a sea breeze that had been blowing for a long time.

Xu Qinglang subconsciously flipped his wrist and pressed the side of the young man's face with a warmer palm, and after a while, he seemed to feel that this posture was not very good, so he withdrew his hand again.

"How do you know I'm living in this room?" He asked softly.

Jiang Jin pointed to his nose and made a sniffing motion, the tip of his nose twitched cutely twice.

Xu Qinglang was stunned: "...... Smelled out? ”

Jiang Jin nodded.

Xu Qinglang lowered his eyes slightly, swept away the emotions that crossed his eyes, and when he raised his eyes again, the dark eyes behind the lenses had returned to their former gentleness.

"Get up, I'll take you back to your room." Xu Qinglang said, grabbed the young man's arm with both hands, and helped the person up from the ground.

Jiang Jin did not resist, and looked very well-behaved.

His walking posture is still a little strange, as if his legs are a little weak, and his body seems to be a little unstable as if his center of gravity is shaking, as if he will stumble on his left foot and fall to the ground with his right foot if he is not careful.

It's not like it's an injury, it's more like a ...... Like a child who has just learned to walk, he walks with some temptation and rustiness.

Xu Qinglang habitually wanted to carry the person back to the room, but as if he thought of something, the arm that had been raised suddenly put down.

The two walked slowly in the night

, After a long time, he finally returned to Jiang Jin's room.

The door of the room was wide open, and it was pitch black inside, and the young man did not even turn on the light when he woke up at night.

Xu Qinglang put the person on the bed again, moved a stool and sat on the edge of the bed and said, "You go to sleep first, and I will leave after you fall asleep." ”

Jiang Jian didn't sleep in the middle of the night and ran to find him, just because he felt scared and that trace of 'fledgling plot'.

Hearing his words, Jiang Yao shrank into the quilt and closed his eyes obediently.

After the young man's breathing stabilized, Xu Qinglang stood up slowly and prepared to go back to his room.

However, as soon as he turned around, he felt that the hem of his clothes was gently tugged.

Looking back, I saw that the young man opened his eyes again, obviously his eyes were already dyed with a strong sleepiness, but he was unwilling to close them at this time.

Xu Qinglang was helpless, so he could only sit back in the chair: "Are you afraid?" ”

The young man in the quilt shook his head, nodded again, and took Xu Qinglang's hand and put it on his face.

Xu Qinglang's wrist moved slightly, but his fingertips did not fall on the other party's face, but on his sideburns, helping him pick up a few strands of broken hair stuck to his face.

"Sleep." Xu Qinglang said softly, "I'm not leaving, I'll be here with you tonight." ”

Jiang Jin blinked his eyes and closed them obediently, but his hand was still tightly tugging on the man's sleeve, as if he was afraid that he would leave secretly.

When people are so trusted and attached, I am afraid that not many people can still remain indifferent.

At least Xu Qinglang can't do it by himself.

He raised his hand to help Jiang Jiao tuck the corners of the quilt, and sleepiness hit, he simply took off the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and used his arm as a pillow to lie on the side of the young man's bed.

Not long after Xu Qinglang fell asleep, the young man who should have been asleep suddenly opened his eyes again.

Jiang Yao looked sideways at the person next to the bed, his arm poked out of the quilt, and stretched out to the man's sleeping face.

233 said in his mind: [Host, I have detected abnormal fluctuations in the mental power of the mission target. 】

Jiang Jin snorted and said, "Okay, I know. 】

After all, he didn't stop moving his hands, still reaching forward, and his warm fingertips landed on the man's head.

Xu Qinglang's hair is a little hard, and it is slightly dry to the touch, but it does not make people feel uncomfortable.

Jiang Yao picked up a handful of hair and played with it between his fingers for a moment, then his fingers slid slightly, tracing along the other party's facial features for a moment, and finally landed on the center of the man's eyebrows.

In the next second, the man suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed his wrist.

The dark eyes without lenses were particularly sharp and deep, staring at the young man so directly, as if with some provocation and interest, as if to say, 'I was caught'.

The young man seemed to be startled by his movements, his arms shrank suddenly, a frightened expression appeared on his delicate pale face, and his delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.

It wasn't until Xu Zhimo chuckled that the young man seemed to realize that the man in front of him had unconsciously 'changed'.

Jiang Jin's eyes sank, and the frightened expression on his face was instantly retracted.

"It's you." He whispered, with a strange hoarseness in his voice, "Why are you again?" ”

"Why can't it be me?" Xu Zhimo asked him rhetorically, "Not bad."

, recognized me so quickly. ”

He raised his eyebrows slightly, obviously he had the same facial features as Xu Qinglang, but he gave people two diametrically opposite feelings.

"Naturally, I can recognize it."

Jiang Jin's expression was indifferent, completely different from the previous gentleness, "You are so different from him, if you can still admit your mistakes......"

He snorted coldly, closed his eyes and turned his head, as if he was unwilling to say even a word to Xu Zhimo, as if he didn't want to pay attention to him.

Xu Zhimo sighed lightly: "How can you treat him with a completely different attitude from treating me?" Obviously we are the same person. ”

Jiang Jin still tilted his head and didn't speak.

After a while, there was a very light touch between the eyebrows and eyes, as if touching it, and it stirred up a touch of itch that people couldn't ignore.

Jiang Jian opened his eyes suddenly, and saw that Xu Zhimo was learning from what he had just done, and gently sliding his fingertips between his eyebrows.

He frowned, raised his hand and wanted to grab Xu Zhimo's wrist, but the other party reacted very quickly and retracted it, and didn't even let him touch it.

Xu Zhimo sighed: "Oops, I was almost caught by you." ”

Jiang Jian took a deep breath, glared at him and warned, "Don't touch me." ”

"Why, you are only allowed to touch me, but I am not allowed to touch you like this?" Xu Zhimo's expression was surprised, "How can there be such an unreasonable?" ”

Jiang Yao: "It's not you who I touched, it's him." ”

"He is who I am, I am who he is." Xu Zhimo chuckled, "Aren't you touching me when you touch him?" ”

Jiang Yao's eyes sank: "You told me yesterday that you are not him, let me not admit my mistake." ”

"It's different." Xu Zhimo changed his sitting posture and lazily supported his chin with his hands, "This is also my body, so no matter who you want to touch, you are actually touching me." ”

These words sounded very strong, Jiang Jin didn't want to talk to him more, so he snorted coldly and closed his eyes again.

But I heard Xu Zhimo speak: "I'm very curious, what did you want to do to me just now?" ”

His voice was soft, almost muttering, "You have to touch me secretly after I fall asleep...... Is there something you want to do to me that no one will see and you won't let me know? ”

The young man on the bed ignored him, but Xu Zhimo didn't feel that he was being poured cold water at all, but seemed more interested.

"Do you want to kiss me like you did at the bottom of the sea before?" Xu Zhimo guessed with interest, "Or ...... Are you more than a mere thief of my family? ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand eagerly, and his fingertips fell on the young man's eyebrows again, and then slid down, stopping on the young man's closed, slightly cool but soft lips, and pressed it gently.

The rough fingertips with thin calluses press a small depression in the soft lip flap.

In the next second, the young man's pursed lips suddenly opened, and he bit the annoying finger hard.

Jiang Jin didn't relent, and the two rows of hard teeth bit down on the soft fingertips, leaving a small row of neat tooth marks.

Xu Zhimo hissed lightly, but did not withdraw his hand.

"Light, don't push so hard." He said lazily, not seemingly caring about the dull pain coming from his fingertips, "If you leave a mark, he will find it." ”

Hearing his words, Jiang Jin not only did not let go, but pushed harder, so hard that his lips were dyed

A faint smell of blood.

The pain in the fingertips is getting stronger and stronger,

Xu Zhimo laughed out loud instead.

The laughter was low and suppressed,

It's not loud, but it's a little weird and insane in the silence of the night.

Jiang Jian let go of his teeth, looked at him as if he was looking at a person with an abnormal brain, and said inexplicably: "What are you laughing at?" ”

Xu Zhimo didn't answer him, and after laughing to himself for a while, he suddenly frowned and muttered in a low voice: "Did you wake up so soon......

Jiang Jin knew that the 'he' in his mouth was referring to Xu Qinglang.

"I don't care what game you want to play with him." Xu Zhimo withdrew his fingers, and his eyes fell on his fingertips glowing with light water and blood, "But I want to kindly remind you that he is not as gentle and easy to bully as you think." ”

"Kind?" Jiang Jian narrowed his eyes slightly and snorted coldly, "You have such a good heart?" ”

"Believe it or not, that's all I have to say." Xu Zhimo spread his hands, "You have to think about it, if he is really as harmless as he seems on the surface, how can I appear?" ”

Jiang Jian looked at him with heavy eyes, and he didn't know whether he believed it or not.

Seeing this, Xu Zhimo didn't say anything more, his thumb lightly twisted the bloody fingertips, suddenly lowered his head and opened his mouth, the tip of his tongue poked out and licked it lightly at the finger marks on his fingertips.

233 Reminder: [Host, the mental power of the mission target has fluctuated abnormally again. 】

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Jian noticed that the expression of the man next to the bed changed, and the playfulness and anger in his dark eyes quickly receded, and he returned to the same gentleness as before.

Xu Qinglang closed his eyes and rubbed his eyebrows, the pain from his fingertips made his eyebrows sharpen.

He opened his eyes and looked at Jiang Yao, and saw that the young man was looking at him with his eyes open, and there was no sleepiness in his eyes, and he immediately realized something.

Xu Qinglang asked in a low voice, "...... Is he coming out again? ”

Jiang Yao pursed the corners of his lips and nodded his head.

"Did he hurt you?" Xu Qinglang asked, his tone slightly anxious, "Did you do anything excessive?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the corners of the young man's lips on the bed deflated slightly.

He moved his arm outside the quilt, raised it and pointed to his wrist, looking at Xu Qinglang's eyes were covered with a layer of mist, and he seemed to be extremely aggrieved.

Xu Qinglang looked in the direction he was pointing, and saw a faint red mark on the young man's wrist.

At first glance, it was grabbed by someone.

Xu Qinglang's pupils shrank, gently held the young man's arm, rubbed his fingertips twice on the circle of red marks, and asked in a low voice, "Does it hurt?" ”

Jiang Jian shook his head, pointed to Xu Qinglang's finger that was bitten by him, opened and closed his lips, and asked silently: Does it hurt?

Xu Qinglang read what he meant, and also shook his head and said, "It doesn't hurt." ”

He lowered his eyes, his gaze fell on the red marks on the young man's wrist that had not been dispersed for a long time, and sighed, "I'm sorry. ”

Xu Qinglang said, his voice was full of apology and self-blame, "My mental strength has not been stable recently, and I can't control him, so I always let him come out...... It's my problem. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, his mouth was covered by Jiang Jin.

The young man's palms were not covered with a thin callus like his, but they were slightly cool to the touch but very soft, covering his lips, as if he did not want him to continue

It's the same thing. ()

Do you want to see Sugarberry's "I'm Dressed as a Non-Human [Fast Wear]" again? Remember the domain name [(()

It's like saying, 'It's not your fault.'"

Xu Qinglang's eyes softened, and his fingertips poked out a little thin and soft spiritual power, covering the young man's reddish wrist.

After a while, he still whispered, "I'd better go back to my room and sleep tonight, and I won't be with you." He withdrew his hand, his gaze helpless, "If he comes out again—"

Before he could finish speaking, his mouth was held tightly by the young man again.

Jiang Jian shook his head at him, pulled his other hand and put it on the side of his face, and rubbed it twice as if he was attached and comforted.

Xu Qinglang understood what he meant: "...... Do you still want me to stay? ”

Jiang Jin nodded, clenching his hand tighter.

Xu Qinglang looked at him for a long time, finally lowered his eyes, and sighed helplessly.

"Well,

I stay. But if he comes out while I'm asleep again, remember to find a way to wake me up. He compromised, pointing to the tip of the injured finger and said, "Just like this, find a way to hurt me and I'll wake up, you've just done well." ”

Hearing this, Jiang Yu bent his eyes at him and nodded again.

Xu Qinglang also smiled at him, stretched out his hand and was about to help the young man re-pull the quilt, but his wrist was suddenly pulled.

Jiang Yao pulled his injured finger to his lips.

Xu Qinglang suddenly remembered what Jiang Jin had done to his wound when his arm was injured, and subconsciously held his breath.

The young man's soft lips fell on the tooth marks that were oozing blood slightly from his fingertips, but this time no tears fell.

He opened his lips, the tip of his soft, moist tongue poking out between his lips and licking it lightly on the tiny tooth mark.

There was a slight soft itch on the finger, and in the blink of an eye, the little wound that was oozing blood healed, leaving only a shallow tooth mark still on the fingertip that refused to fade.

Jiang Jin retracted his head, stretched out his hand and touched the tooth mark, looking at Xu Qinglang's eyes with some guilt, as if he was blaming himself, he couldn't get rid of the tooth mark.

Xu Qinglang withdrew his fingers after coming back to his senses and touched between the young man's soft hair.

"It's okay." He said, "It doesn't hurt anymore, it's just a tooth mark, and it will get better soon." ”

The young man winked at him.

The clouds in the sky outside the window were oppressive, obscuring the already pale moonlight almost invisible.

In the room, the sound of the young man's breathing soon softened and smoothed.

Xu Qinglang sat on the edge of the bed, but did not fall asleep immediately.

[Xu Zhimo. He said coldly in his mind, "I know you're not asleep, come out. 】

Xu Zhimo's voice sounded lazily: [Come out, what's the matter? 】

"You move him again. Xu Qinglang said in a deep voice, [Can't you control your hands like this? 】

[Hey, don't wronged me. Xu Zhimo didn't care about the warning in his tone, [I just grabbed his wrist, but he bit me. Not to mention...... I didn't do it first. 】

He chuckled, [When I came out, I saw Xiaomei staring at me directly, as if she wanted to secretly do something to me, ah, no, I should be trying to do something to you secretly

() What's the matter? 】

[Then what did he do to me?] Xu Qinglang snorted coldly (),

? ()? [()，

didn't seem to want to say more to him, leaving only one sentence: "Believe it or not. Then he sank into the depths of his consciousness, and no matter how Xu Qinglang called, there was no longer any response.

Xu Qinglang's eyes were dark, he took off his glasses and rubbed his eyebrows vigorously, and sighed deeply in his heart.

*

Two days later, Xu Qinglang's ship finally successfully arrived at the base dock.

I don't know if it's Ji Tailai, after encountering the attack of mutant species for two days in a row, the next way back has become extraordinarily smooth.

When he was about to get off the boat, Xu Qinglang found a jacket with a hood and helped Jiang Jian put it on.

"When you get off the boat, remember to put your hat on." Xu Qinglang said, "There will be a routine inspection when you enter the base, you will follow me, don't be afraid, you know?" ”

Jiang Jin nodded and obediently put on his hood.

The black hood was wide and large, and when he wore it, he almost obscured his own vision, and his delicate but pale face was also half obscured by the hood, revealing only a sharp and small chin.

Xu Qinglang rubbed Jiang Jin's head through the hood.

It's not that the young man is unsightly, it's that he's so beautiful, which isn't a good thing in Doom Base.

Although Xu Qinglang's scientific research team did not receive strong support from the base, his own strength was not bad, and not many people in the base dared to put ideas on his head.

He boasted that it was no problem to protect a Jiang Jin, but Xu Qinglang knew very well that he always had a time to go out, and he couldn't follow Jiang Jin to protect him all the time, so before the young man could skillfully control his own power, it would be good to keep a low profile.

Not to mention......

Although even the testing instrument is saying that Jiang Jin is a human being both on the outside and on the inside, Xu Qinglang's intuition still tells him that Jiang Jin may not be human.

Xu Qinglang lowered his eyes, raised his hand to help Jiang Yu pull off the upturned cloak, and said softly, "Let's go." ”

One side of the base is close to the sea, and in order to resist the mutants that come ashore from time to time in the sea, a three-layer protective wall has been built at the dock to completely separate the base from the sea.

The sea is dangerous, and there are not many people who dare to go to sea on weekdays, so there are very few people entering and leaving the dock, and only a few people are queuing up to enter the base at a glance.

There were several guards standing at the entrance, and inspectors were holding special detection equipment, checking everyone who entered the base.

Xu Qinglang walked at the front of the group, Jiang Jian followed behind him wearing a hood, and the hand leaning out from under the cloak tightly grasped the cuffs of the person in front of him.

Xu Qinglang's frequency of going to sea is not low, so he is already familiar with the guards at the entrance, and when he saw that it was Xu Qinglang's scientific research team who came back, the guards even took the initiative to say hello.

"Professor Xu is back!" The guard smiled and asked, "Did the trip go smoothly this time?" ”

Xu Qinglang also had a gentle but slightly distant smile on his face, and he said, "Well, it's quite smooth. ”

He held out his hand as he spoke.

When the inspector was about to press the instrument in his hand on Xu Qinglang's finger, the other party's arm shook suddenly and hung down uncontrollably.

The inspector frowned: "Professor Xu? ”

() "Sorry, wait for me."

Xu Qinglang raised his hand and waved lightly, and said to the team members behind, "You go to test first." ”

After he finished speaking, he ignored the inspector's slightly suspicious gaze, turned around and gently held the wrist of the person behind him.

Just now, it was because the young man behind him pulled his sleeve hard that his hand avoided the detection instrument.

The young man lowered his head slightly, and Xu Qinglang could only see his lips pursed under his wide hood, and his breathing became a little shorter than normal, as if he was afraid of something.

This situation seems to be somewhat similar to that of young people facing syringes and testing cabins.

Xu Qinglang had a number in his heart, and asked softly: "Are you afraid of the testing instrument in his hand?" ”

Jiang Yu nodded, and the wide brim of his hat shook out a soft black arc.

"Don't be afraid." Xu Qinglang said, pointing to the team members in front of him, "That's just an instrument for detecting the body, and everyone will use it when they enter the base." You see, they used it too, but none of them had any problems and didn't feel uncomfortable. ”

But the lips under the brim of the hat were still pursed, looking a little uneasy.

Xu Qinglang thought for a while and asked, "Then if I do it for you, will you be better?" ”

After a moment, the hooded youth nodded.

Xu Qinglang's heart was slightly relieved, it happened that the team members in front of him had finished testing, and it was their turn.

This time, when Xu Qinglang raised his hand, his other hand kept holding the young man's thin wrist.

Naturally, there was no problem with his test, but when it was Jiang Jin's turn, Xu Qinglang suddenly lowered his voice and said to the inspector, "Can I come and check him?" ”

The inspector frowned slightly: "Professor Xu, this is not in accordance with the rules. ”

"To tell you the truth, he was stimulated in the wild, and he didn't remember a lot of things." Xu Qinglang explained in a low voice, "I will be scared when I see strangers and unfamiliar things, you can rest assured, you watch us do the test, I will not make small movements." ”

The inspector glanced at Jiang Jin's hand holding the corner of Xu Qinglang's clothes, hesitated for a moment, and then lowered his voice and said, "Okay, then Professor Xu, hurry up." ”

Xu Qinglang thanked him, took the instrument and quickly helped Jiang Jin do a good job of testing.

There was no problem with everyone's detection, and the guards naturally let them into the base.

"Look, is it all right?" Xu Qinglang shook his arm, and his voice was incredibly soft.

The young man's hand was still grasping his sleeve, and his arm shook with it.

Jiang Jian glanced up at him, leaned closer to him, and finally curled a slight arc of his lips, which had been pursed.

The location of Xu Qinglang Research Institute is in a very remote place at the base, but it is not far from the pier, and it only takes less than ten minutes to walk.

Although it is easy to get in and out of the base on a regular basis, this location is actually one of the most dangerous locations in the base.

In the event of a breakthrough of a mutant species, the scientific research institute must be the first to bear the brunt.

"Yo, isn't this Professor Xu?" A joking voice came from the side, which did not hide the provocation in his tone at all, "After going to sea for so many days, I can come back unscathed, which is worthy of Professor Xu." ”

The moment this voice came, Jiang Jia almost immediately recognized that this person was one of the researchers of the scientific research institute that had arrested the original owner for experiments, and he was also the friend who betrayed Xu Qinglang in the first place.

All

No one noticed that the hooded young man's head hung lower, his lips under the brim were almost straight, and there seemed to be a look of hatred and anger on his face, which was hidden by the hood.

Only Xu Zhimo, who had been shrinking in the depths of Xu Qinglang's mind, but had been paying attention to the outside world, especially Jiang Jin's situation, saw his expression.

Xu Zhimo thought this scene was very interesting, but he didn't say anything, just let out an inexplicable 'wow' in Xu Qinglang's mind.

Xu Qinglang's expression didn't change for a moment, but the few team members walking behind him looked at the visitors.

One of the team members looked extremely angry: "Chen Qianhua, don't go too far!" ”

"What's too much?"

Chen Qianhua was also dressed in a white coat, and walked in front of Xu Qinglang leisurely, "I'm just out of kindness to greet my former friend about the current situation, why is it too much?" ”

The team member shouted angrily, "You-"

Xu Qinglang raised his hand and signaled him to stop talking.

"Thank you Professor Chen for your concern." Xu Qinglang's tone was calm, "I think you have also seen it, we just returned from going to sea, we are tired, and we just want to go back to the base early to rest, so we won't talk to Professor Chen more." ”

He nodded lightly at Chen Qianhua, "Professor Chen, take your leave." ”

After speaking, Xu Qinglang pulled Jiang Jin, wanting to bypass Chen Qianhua, who was blocked in front, and continue to move forward.

But I heard Chen Qianhua sneer: "In broad daylight, wrapping yourself tightly, won't you be hiding some unsightly secrets?" ”

Chen Qianhua's eyes stared directly at Jiang Jin, and before he could finish speaking, he suddenly stepped forward and raised his hand to lift the hood on Jiang Jin's head.

Jiang Jin hid behind Xu Qinglang in a panic, and Xu Qinglang also stepped forward, blocking between him and Chen Qianhua, holding Chen Qianhua's arm tightly.

Xu Qinglang's strength was very strong, and Chen Qianhua screamed in pain: "Let go of me!" ”

"Professor Chen." Xu Qinglang's voice was slightly deep, "There shouldn't be a 'no hood during the day' rule in the base, right?" ”

Chen Qianhua uncharacteristically did not speak.

Xu Qinglang didn't want to entangle with him anymore, so he shook off Chen Qianhua's arm suddenly, and took Jiang Jian and the rest of the team to quickly stay away while the other party seemed to be stunned.

After Xu Qinglang and the others walked away, Chen Qianhua was still standing in place, staring at everyone's backs with shocked and suspicious eyes, especially the strange hooded man who followed Xu Qinglang.

In the battle just now, although he couldn't take off the hood on the young man's face, when the soft fabric of the hood swayed, for a moment, Chen Qianhua glimpsed the young man's face under the wide brim.

Although the hair color and eye color are not the same, the delicate pale face and the contours of the facial features are so perfect that they seem to be gifted by God......

It looks almost exactly the same as the siren who was caught by them in the scientific research institute and studied for nearly a year, but was escaped a while ago.

But unlike the Siren, the hooded young man apparently had a pair of human legs, not the beautiful silver-blue fishtail of the Siren.

Chen Qianhua's expression was shocked.

After a while, after the backs of Xu Qinglang and the others were no longer visible, Chen Qianhua lowered his eyes, turned around and took the car back to his scientific research institute.

*

Chen Qian

Hua didn't catch up, which made Xu Qinglang's team members look a little surprised.

"He didn't even catch up."

One of the team members said, "If it had been before, I am afraid that he would have chased him all the way to the gate of our research institute before stopping." ”

Another member of the team chimed in: "That's right, I've never seen such a shameless person." ”

"Alright." Xu Qinglang stopped their communication, "Isn't it a good thing that people didn't catch up?" ”

The team member muttered, "That's right, I just hope he can stop at it and stop staring at us in the future." ”

Xu Qinglang did not respond to his words.

The young man still followed him step by step, the feeling of his sleeves being pulled was very obvious, Xu Qinglang's fingers moved slightly, and he held the young man's wrist with his backhand.

"Did he just touch you?" Xu Qinglang asked softly.

Jiang Jian shook his head, looked up at Xu Qinglang from under the brim of his hat, pursed his lips and smiled at him, indicating that he was fine.

Xu Qinglang tightened his fingers and hooked his lower lip at Jiang Yao.

When I returned to the research institute, it was not too early.

When Xu Qinglang went out this time, he brought almost half of his own manpower, so there were not many people left behind at the base, and the entire research institute seemed very deserted.

The people in the institute had already received the news of their return in advance, and they also learned that Xu Qinglang had brought someone back from outside, so they obeyed his instructions and cleaned up a room for Jiang Jin in advance.

Xu Qinglang led Jiang Yu to his room: "If you are tired, you can rest first." He said, "I still have something to do, and I'll come back to rest later." ”

Jiang Jin grabbed his sleeve, gestured in front of him for a moment, and found that he didn't seem to understand what he meant, so he lowered his head a little lowly.

Xu Qinglang still understood what he meant: "Are you trying to ask me when I'll come back?" ”

Jiang Jin's eyes lit up and he nodded.

Xu Qinglang thought for a while and said sincerely: "I'm not sure, I just went to sea and returned to the base, there are many things that need to be dealt with, you don't have to wait for me." ”

Hearing this, the young man seemed to be a little lost, and his delicate and soft eyebrows and eyes drooped a little, but soon the corners of his lips were raised again and smiled at him.

Xu Qinglang felt relieved, raised his hand and rubbed the young man's long hair, which felt very good, and then turned around and left.

It had been nearly ten days since they left the base.

During this period, the team members who stayed at the base carried out the previous experiments in an orderly manner, but they still failed to find any breakthroughs.

Xu Qinglang was not surprised or disappointed.

He instructed people to place the sample materials he brought back, and told the team members some precautions, and the sky was completely dark.

By the time he had arranged everything, it was already late at night.

"Professor, you can go back and rest first, and we'll take care of the rest." One of the team members who stayed at the base said, "I've heard them say that you hardly get a good night's sleep at sea, so don't burn yourself out." ”

Xu Qinglang nodded: "Okay, if there is anything, go to my room to find me." ”

After that, he left the studio.

Xu Qinglang took off his glasses, rubbed the bridge of his nose that was slightly sore, and lowered his eyelashes to hide the fatigue that flashed under his eyes.

It was too late, Jiang Jin must have already slept.

Xu Qinglang didn't go to Jiang

He looked at him in his room, and went straight back to his room.

It wasn't until the door closed behind him that Xu Qinglang's straight back relaxed slightly, he stood by the door with his eyes pointed for a while, and went to the bathroom in the room to take a shower.

The warm water diluted the exhaustion in his body, but it could not dilute the swelling pain that seemed to come from the depths of his mind.

Headaches really seem to be getting worse.

Xu Qinglang rubbed his temples that were throbbing, and it took a long time before putting on his pajamas and pushing open the bathroom door.

In an instant, he sensed that something was wrong.

There were people in the room.

Xu Qinglang's eyes lit up behind the lenses, and his eyes quickly scanned the room, but he didn't find anyone.

But he trusts his instincts to be incorrect.

Xu Qinglang pushed down his glasses, pretended not to notice anything abnormal, and continued to walk towards the bed, but his body was tense and guarded.

It wasn't until he got close to the bed that he suddenly realized—

His bed was occupied.

Not only did the man sleep on his bed, but he also tore off his quilt and shrank it down, and lifted it up into a huge bulge.

Xu Qinglang's heart jumped, and his heart suddenly hung in the air.

He lowered his steps and approached the edge of the bed, then suddenly reached out and grabbed the corner of the quilt, lifting the whole quilt.

Fluttering along with the quilt, there are a few strands of long silky hair.

Xu Qinglang's breath was suffocated, and after seeing the figure under the quilt clearly, the hanging heart instantly fell back to the same place.

It's Jiang Jin.

Xu Qinglang heard a low chuckle in his head.

[Wow.] Xu Zhimo was surprised and played with taste, [Look at him, he is really proactive! 】！
