"Woo …"
From the corner of the alley ahead, a low whimper of a woman could be heard. Although the sound was obviously suppressed, it could still be heard clearly on the street in the dead of night.
The crying spread further and further, and finally turned into a ripple in the air and disappeared.
Two silent shadows walked out from the orange-yellow road lights in the distance.
"Brother Gong, it should be in front." A skinny man looked at the card in his hand and whispered to another man in front of him who was completely hidden in a long robe.
"Don't tell me it's this crying woman?"
Although it was a rhetorical question, the man's tone was already very certain. He quickened his steps and silently turned into the alley.
The street lights floating in the alley were covered by a coat, and the light became very dim through the clothes. In this blur, a woman was sitting on the ground with her back against the vending machine, sobbing. As soon as the man in the robe appeared, she was immediately shocked. She got up in a panic and was about to run away, but suddenly remembered something. She turned around and asked in a trembling voice, "… Is that Mr. Gong Daoyi?"
The man in the robe nodded silently, took a step closer, looked at the vending machine, and then looked at her.
The woman lowered her head and clenched her fists shyly. There were dozens of glowing balls scattered around her feet. They were anti-radiation gummies.
Gong Daoyi lowered his eyelids and looked at the petite woman in front of him. He chuckled and reached out to wipe off the gummies on her face. His voice was low and gentle, "It's already like this. No matter how much gummies you eat, it won't help … Look, it's so dirty."
This sudden action obviously made the woman stiffen, but when she saw him gently retract his finger, her body immediately relaxed. As soon as she relaxed, she couldn't help but burst into tears. She covered her mouth and cried, "… I, I really don't know what to do …"
Gong Daoyi slowly took off his hat, revealing a fair and handsome face. The red light on the ground illuminated his beautiful jawline. His eyes were glowing, and they looked strangely clean and warm. The woman looked up at him and was stunned. She embarrassedly wiped away the tears on her face.
In the garden of Eden. It was rare to see such a handsome man. Most importantly, his eyes were very clear and gentle, making her feel at ease when he looked at her. He was not at all like other men, who would get goosebumps when they looked at her.
She had almost forgotten what she was facing. Logically speaking, he was a Special Item Smuggler who should have caused people's expressions to change.
"What's your name?" Gong Daoyi asked gently, probably to calm her down.
"I-I'm Xueqin …"
The woman named Xueqin looked to be in her early twenties. Although she was a little disheveled, her facial features were very pretty. She composed herself, her eyes moving restlessly over the thin man's body.
"This is my partner. His name is Lei Ming. You don't have to worry." Gong Daoyi smiled. The smile lines on his lips were very beautiful.
Lei Ming nodded awkwardly as a form of greeting. He was far away. Before the light from the gummy on the ground could shine on him, it was already swallowed by the darkness. Lei Ming heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly put his blood-stained right hand behind his back.
"Mr. Gong, I sneaked out from my husband's house. I can't be out for a long time …" Facing Gong Daoyi, Xueqin somehow felt a little ashamed. She clutched her collar tightly, trying to hide the bruise on her chest. "… I heard that you have something that can help me. Is that true?"
Gong Daoyi nodded, "When did you find out? How did this happen? "
Xueqin immediately shivered when she heard this.
Facing a person like Gong Daoyi, she did not want to lie. It was as if she wanted to suppress the surging memories. Xueqin turned her head away, "Yes, there was one time when I was unconscious for half a month. When I woke up, I couldn't move and could only rest in bed. So I didn't eat candy for a long time … But after I recovered, my body was fine and my strength was getting better. I didn't think about it … "
At this point, her tone changed abruptly, "Until I found —"
Gong Daoyi patted her shoulder as if he couldn't bear it. He comforted her by saying, "It's not a big deal, don't be afraid." Seeing that she had calmed down a little, he took out a black gadget and swept it on both sides of her temple.
With a "beep" sound, a fluorescent number lit up on the black handle.
Xueqin wiped away her tears and looked puzzled.
Gong Daoyi looked at it and sighed. His tone was full of apology, "Potential value: 177. You … really evolved."
Hearing this number that could only be found on a mutant, Xueqin immediately let out a short cry, but she quickly suppressed it.
It was already very unfortunate to be a woman in the Garden of Eden. The only thing worse than this was probably becoming a mutant.
Gong Daoyi sighed and took out a yellow sponge from his pocket. He put it in her hand and explained how to use it, "… Remember, as long as you carry it with you, your ability won't be activated and it won't evolve. But when it gets really heavy, remember to squeeze out all the liquid inside … "
Xueqin gripped the [Exclusive Lu Xun Style Sponge] tightly and nodded gratefully. After paying for it, she carefully put it in her pocket. Seeing that it was getting late, she bowed deeply to Gong Daoyi and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm leaving. If I don't leave now, I'm afraid that my husband's family will find out. Thank you, Mr. Gong … "
Although it was essentially a deal, Gong Daoyi's warm temperament had already given her a lot of comfort. Xueqin even felt that even if she had to face a miserable life in the future, as long as she thought about tonight, she would have the strength to persevere.
After watching her wipe away her tears and disappear into the dark alley, Gong Daoyi took out a special wristband that was unique to the residents of the Garden of Eden and called out a screen.
Lei Ming looked at him dumbfoundedly, "Brother Gong, when did you …"
Gong Daoyi ignored him and put on his hat to hide his beautiful face.
"You have connected to the Civil Police Department, connecting you now …" A monotonous mechanical voice came from the wristband and echoed between the walls of the alley.
Huh? Lei Ming was so shocked that he even forgot about the sticky blood on his hand.
"Hello, Citizen 49384, how may I help you?" A cold, middle-aged man's face appeared on the screen.
"Erm, I want to report someone." Gong Daoyi's voice suddenly changed. It was no longer clean and pleasant. "I think there's a woman on our street who is a mutant. I'm not sure if she snuck in early …"
The cold, middle-aged man suddenly became interested. His face zoomed in on the screen. "Please tell me your name and specific information!"
"Xueqin, 21 years old. Wearing a black coat. I saw her eating gummies by the handfuls on Saddma Trail, then she headed west … "
"… Okay, she headed west … How long has she been walking? Okay, I understand. Citizen 49384. Your awareness of national defense is very sensitive, thank you for your contribution to the Garden of Eden … Yes, we will set off immediately! "
Even after Gong Daoyi turned off the screen, crushed the wristband and threw it into the flower bed, Lei Ming was still in a daze.
"Why … Why …"
Gong Daoyi's beautiful lips curled up, and he glanced at Lei Ming with his bright eyes. "Although I'm sorry, I need her to be captured."
Before Lei Ming could say another 'why', Gong Daoyi had already started walking. As he walked, he said, "I don't know how she usually is, but if we find a female mutant during the Lunar New Year Tournament, she should be sent to the tournament committee. Logically speaking, they should be sent to the combat committee … I don't know where the committee is, so I need someone to show me the way. "
"Keke, but she might die!"
Lei Ming felt that he was so shocked that he could not think straight. Even though he did not agree with Gong Daoyi's actions, he unconsciously followed him.
"Who hasn't died?" Gong Daoyi's gentle voice was like a spring breeze. "Based on her current life, death might be a relief."
Gong Daoyi stopped talking. Only the heavy breathing behind him showed that Lei Ming was in a mess of emotions. Both of them were evolved humans who had strengthened their bodies multiple times, so they were very fast. Not long after, they arrived at the entrance of the Civil Police Department and hid. After a while, Gong Daoyi tilted his head and listened. Then, he smiled as if he was very satisfied. "Give me the eyeball."
Lei Ming silently handed over the eyeball that he had been holding in his palm.
After two teams of fully armed soldiers entered and left, the Civil Police finally set off with an unconscious woman. Finally, the Civil Police carried an unconscious woman and set off. Her body hung limply from the shoulder of a soldier. Her hair swayed in the wind and her skin was purplish red. It was impossible to tell that it was Xueqin.
Lei Ming's gaze fell on her, and he could not help but close his eyes.
But Gong Daoyi didn't seem to notice, and patted him. He patted him and followed them.
Being able to sneak into the Garden of Eden to smuggle goods, the two of them were naturally very skilled. They followed them all the way, and without anyone noticing, they found themselves in front of the tournament venue.
"So the committee is above the tournament venue?" Gong Daoyi muttered to himself as he watched the lights of a small building beside the venue light up. After the team of soldiers left, he brought Lei Ming to the side entrance of the venue.
He aimed the eyeball at the scanning window. After a green light scanned it, an unfamiliar man's profile appeared in the air. Accompanied by a voice saying, "Welcome back, I wish you success in your work today …", the small door at the entrance opened silently.
Gong Daoyi calmly walked into the venue.
Suddenly, a woman's shout tore through the silent darkness of the venue like a sharp knife. (To be continued.)
