In the dead silence, the enchanting woman turned around and looked at the crowd. There was not the slightest fluctuation in her pair of slender phoenix eyes. Her scarlet lips parted and she asked calmly, "Does anyone still have an opinion about Xu Xiaoyang being the team leader?"
Xu Xiaoyang kept her head down and played with her braid. She did not say a word, as if what happened had nothing to do with her.
Everyone was quiet. They all had different expressions on their faces, but no one made a sound.
Iron Sword, who was hiding in the corner, struggled to get up. He felt a little itchy on his face, so he wiped his forehead blankly. Then, he looked down and realized that his hand was stained with sticky blood. The blood on his hand seemed to agitate him. Iron Sword roared, "F * ck your mother!" and rushed toward the woman like a bolt of lightning.
"Quick, stop him!" Chen Jinfeng shouted angrily and pushed the taller boy. The boy was stunned for a moment, and he seemed a little reluctant. However, seeing that Iron Sword was about to reach the woman, he had no choice but to jump forward and grab Iron Sword by the waist. He exerted strength in his arms and forcefully pulled Iron Sword back.
Although Iron Saber was terrifyingly strong, after being hugged by the big boy, he could only struggle, kick, and curse. The room was suddenly filled with bursts of wild roars, which were so deafening that it hurt people's ears.
"Tsk, tsk. There are so many hidden dragons and crouching tigers," Septimus whispered into Lin Sanjiu's ear.
Lin Sanjiu felt the same way. She had seen it clearly: Iron Saber stomped on the ground and crushed the floor tiles, leaving a shallow pit. With such strength, he did not even have the strength to fight back in front of the woman and the tall boy! "If I were to fight against them …" Lin Sanjiu quietly put all her strength into her heel and tried to grind it back and forth a few times, but the floor was still intact.
"We are all in the same team, but you guys are fighting among yourselves before we even set off!" Seeing that the situation was under control, Chen Jinfeng walked out from the back and shouted bitterly, "Xu Xiaoyang's strength is obvious to all. We have our reasons for choosing her as the team leader. Iron Sword, you can't keep this attitude in Oasis! "
Tie Dao also knew that a wise man knew better than to fight when the odds were against him. Once again, he was tightly gripped by the boy's arm. Panting heavily, he could only glare at Chen Jinfeng.
Chen Jinfeng did not mind and ordered the taller boy, "Gao Fei, bring Iron Sword to the infirmary …" He looked around and suddenly pointed at Marcie, "Miss Marcie, since Iron Sword is injured, please stay and take care of him. Both of you don't need to participate in today's mission. "
Lin Sanjiu was stunned and quickly exchanged glances with Marcie.
"It's not a bad thing not to go, after all, it's safer here." She lowered her voice and whispered in Marcie's ear. "But can you stay alone?"
When they first met, she remembered Luther saying that Marcie was still a product of his ability, so she couldn't be too far away from him.
Marcie nodded silently. "It's a twenty-minute walk. It shouldn't be a problem." As she spoke, she glanced at Lin Sanjiu and Septimus and said, "Be careful." Then, she turned around and followed Gao Fei out of the door.
After the three of them left, the room seemed a lot bigger.
Hu Changzai's face was pale. He took a few steps away from the enchanting woman. He was probably intimidated by her ferocious aura. Lin Sanjiu looked around and realized that Lin Sanjiu, who had spoken to her before, was the friendliest. He forced a smile and stood behind her obediently.
[You are afraid of her, but so am I.] Lin Sanjiu sighed helplessly in her heart.
She looked around and found that Xu Xiaoyang was sitting on a chair in the corner of the room. Her legs were swaying and she was looking out of the window. Under the white light from the window, her smooth skin seemed to be covered with a layer of powder. Her mouth was pouting like a flower, and she looked young and innocent.
Her expression looked natural and genuine. She was definitely not like Wang Sisi, who pretended to be naive and waited for an opportunity to strike. But how could an ordinary elementary school student … When Lin Sanjiu thought of this, she couldn't help looking at the enchanting woman.
The woman still had her head lowered and her face was cold. She did not look at anyone.
The atmosphere in the room was so stagnant that it was almost piercing. However, Chen Jinfeng did not care at all. He hummed a tune as he returned to his desk and started reading his documents. Lin Sanjiu and the others, who were left to the side, waited for a long time as if they were sitting on pins and needles. Finally, Xu Xiaoyang returned. The moment he opened the door and called out, "Cadre Chen," Xu Xiaoyang jumped down from his chair and clapped his hands, "You are finally back.
He pushed Gao Fei to the door and said to Chen Jinfeng without turning his head, "We are leaving!"
"Hey, we are leaving already? Good, good. I wish you all a smooth journey and success! "Chen Jinfeng quickly slapped his documents and laughed.
No one paid any attention to him. The enchanting woman had already started to follow behind Xu Xiaoyang. Then, she shot a glance at the others. Her eyes were filled with a strong sense of warning. That glance was more effective than anything else. Hu Changzai immediately followed after her.
The six of them walked out of Unit 306 and went downstairs.
When they reached the entrance of the factory, Xu Xiaoyang handed a piece of paper to one of them before the gatekeeper could ask anything. The man glanced at the paper and looked up at the group. He suddenly pouted and turned to open the metal gate. Lin Sanjiu was the last person in the group. When she was about to step through the gate, she immediately felt the man's gaze roaming over her body. Then, he smacked his lips as if he was a little regretful.
Lin Sanjiu muttered something under her breath as she walked out of the door. Her voice was so soft that even Septimus could not hear her clearly. He couldn't help asking, "What did you say?"
"Nothing. It's not important." Lin Sanjiu smiled at him and walked out of the factory area.
Some things were just so strange. They had not even walked ten steps away from the oasis, but they could already feel the desolation. Behind him was the busy human camp under the light of the searchlights. In front of him were the ruins of buildings with deep cracks embedded in them.
The yellow sand that they had not seen for a long time hit them in the face again. Xu Xiaoyang stopped and looked around for a while. She narrowed her eyes and asked without turning her head, "Gray, look at the map. Where are the duoluozhongs?"
"Gray?"
Everyone was stunned. Then, they saw the woman reach into her pocket and take out a hand-drawn map. Before everyone's surprised expression faded, they heard a young girl's voice suddenly scream, "Oh no! I think I dropped something! "
All five of them looked at Lin Sanjiu at the same time.
"Captain, I will go over there and look for it. I promise I will be back soon, okay? Just give me a minute. I just need a minute! "Lin Sanjiu smiled at Xu Xiaoyang." You can't fight duoluozhongs without that. "
Xu Xiaoyang was very satisfied with her attitude. His lips curled into a smile, "Okay, go and come back soon."
She then shot a glance at Gray, and the latter nodded slightly.
"Okay!" Lin Sanjiu thanked him as if she didn't notice anything. She turned and ran back to the gate of the oasis. She didn't dare to go too far as she was afraid that Gray would think that she was trying to run away. She looked around and saw that there was still a white line between the broken bricks beside the gate. She immediately heaved a sigh of relief. When Lin Sanjiu saw a man sitting by the door stand up alertly, Lin Sanjiu raised her head and smiled at him, "Boss, our captain dropped something here just now."
