Perhaps it was because of her father's aura, Zhu Lingdie mustered up her courage and said, "but dad, I still don't think he is a devil."
Zhu Xirui finally knew why he felt strange about his daughter. He rubbed his temples, as if there was something there that he didn't want to touch, as if he wanted to crush it with his hands. Then he raised his head, and under his daughter's struggling eyes, he said in a depressed tone, "Because of the dead baby."
Zhu Lingdie was surprised and repeated, "the dead baby?"
Zhu Xirui nodded his head heavily. His eyes were filled with an indescribable complexity, as if there was a devil grabbing his heart and suffocating him. He said with a pale face, "we spent a lot of effort to find the records of the aborted baby and the doctor who was still alive. But we found a terrible thing."
Zhu Lingdie looked at her father, and her hands involuntarily clenched each other. Her hands sank into her fair skin, leaving bloody handprints on her skin.
Zhu Xirui said with all his strength, "it committed suicide!"
Zhu Lingdie's head buzzed as if she had been hit by a heavy blow. Although she had vaguely guessed it just now, when it came out from her father's mouth, she still couldn't accept it. She desperately tried to explain, "it was only eight months old, it hasn't been born yet, it doesn't even have consciousness. Could it be an accident? "
There was a trace of fear in Zhu Xirui's eyes. He lit a cigarette that he hadn't smoked for a long time and took a deep puff to calm himself down a little. In the smoke, he said word by word, "it has consciousness. It imitated the method in a movie. It cut its own umbilical cord and killed itself in the womb. It brutally ended its own life …"
After that, he took out another document from the safe and put it on the cold table, "this is a copy of Chu Yunsheng's birth record, and … if you want to see it, you can take it."
Looking at the light yellow kraft paper file bag, there was a milky white buckle that was wrapped by a white thread. It was twisted together like the umbilical cord and the fetus. It was getting more and more terrifying. Zhu Lingdie's trembling hands were slightly trembling, and she didn't dare to open it …

It was already the fifteenth day. Chu Yunsheng was standing on the diagonal of the No. 1 warehouse, looking down at the place where the light was as bright as day. He let out a sigh and turned back.
Of the sixteen large warehouses built in Puxi District, twelve of them were looted by him. Among the remaining four, two of them had advanced detection equipment. Even if he used a level-three energy shield talisman, he still couldn't hide from the human wall. The other two were built underground, so the entrances were all blocked. Unless he used brute force, it was impossible to get in.
But even so, he had hit the Achilles' heel of Puxi District. In just a few days, the extreme shortage of food and various materials quickly affected the stability of the city. Hungry citizens and refugees were crowded in front of the government agencies, and some extreme people even attacked the military station. Many people began to cross the river to find a way to survive. Although the bridge and the tunnel were blocked by both sides, more and more people tried various ways to sneak across the river.
Three or four days ago, the powerful propaganda machine of Duo Neng race began to operate at full speed, announcing to the whole city that it was the devil Chu Yunsheng who stole everyone's food, making everyone to be prepared to cross the river to get the food back, and making a major decision. Instead of letting Chu Yunsheng steal the other warehouses, they might as well distribute the food and materials in the warehouses to the citizens and refugees, form a new militia, and incite the people's hatred towards Chu Yunsheng.
Even Chu Yunsheng himself had heard this kind of propaganda dozens of times when he was hiding in the crowd. The people around him were all filled with righteous indignation, cursing and scolding him. Some people even used discarded newspapers to make him look like Chu Yunsheng and burned his body in front of the crowd.
At the same time, Song Zihuai's people lurking in Puxi District also began to secretly spread rumors, claiming that some people had already surrendered to the aliens and did not take the lives of the people seriously. They fabricated a groundless enemy to kidnap all the people in the city. The black missile half a month ago was irrefutable evidence, there was no doubt about it!
In fact, the food and materials were secretly transported to the Arctic base by these shameful traitors to support the brutal rule of the aliens. The spies secretly called on everyone to kill these aliens' lackeys, and claimed that the army of Pudong would soon arrive. At that time, everyone would have food, clothing, and a place to sleep!
The propaganda war between the two sides swept the entire city like a surging wind. Even the refugees outside the city could not avoid it. The turbulent waves of worship were higher and higher, and the armed conflicts were getting more and more intense. The situation was getting worse and worse every day. The wind in the streets and alleys was getting tighter and tighter, and the situation was getting more and more critical. The dark clouds of war were gathering in the sky, and the war had reached the point where it could break out at any moment.
On the Pudong side, under the control of Song Zihuai and Fang Yuehou, they sped up all the time to prepare for the war. Every day, a large number of troops went to the front line of the Huangpu River, and the recruits were also training intensively with the guns looted by Chu Yunsheng from the weapons warehouse. The awakeners and phantom warriors were attacking everywhere in the dark, clearing the man-eating creatures on the periphery, and cleaning up the hidden dangers behind the outbreak of the war.
On the Puxi side, Chu Yunsheng was closely monitoring their every move. Now everyone knew that the war would start in ten days. It was completely different from the siege war half a month ago. Now, the reinforcements of Duo Neng race and other aliens had not arrived, and the high-level combat power of Chu Yunsheng's side was also seriously damaged. If they were not stupid, they should also be able to guess it.
Therefore, the main force of this war would be ordinary soldiers on both sides, and some awakeners who could still fight.
The number, equipment, weapons, ammunition, and so on of the army, as well as the combat power, will, cooperation, and so on of the awakeners, had become the crucial determinants of this war, and the people in the areas under the jurisdiction of both sides had become the hidden powder keg. Once there was a riot, the soldiers and low-ranking officers whose families were in the rear were very likely to panic without a fight. Even if there were well-disciplined troops, they might not be affected, but if they were attacked from the back by civilians and refugees, this war would not be able to be fought, because there were too many people in this city.
Both sides were close to each other in such a city. Once they started fighting, it would be the most brutal street fighting. Naturally, weapons of mass destruction would not be able to be used. Chu Yunsheng expected that no matter how crazy Duo Neng race was, they would not dare to use weapons like nuclear bombs again. Otherwise, he might not be able to be killed. And those troops who fought for them were already traumatized. If they were used as sacrificial pawns again, they would probably change sides on the spot. Maybe the Pu Xi army would turn around and take the lead to kill the commander of the military. Once they started killing, those senior officers might not be able to keep their lives.
If people had a way out, they wouldn't want to die so quickly. The higher-ups in the command center still had the Arctic base to retreat to, so there was no need to throw their lives away here. After they returned, they could still continue to throw nuclear bombs here. After all, that was a matter for the Multitude Race to decide.
Of course, they would not give up here easily. From the pre-war propaganda and troop mobilization, Chu Yunsheng could feel that their determination to fight to the death was not weaker than his.
The next step was to see how this war of unification would be fought. Chu Yunsheng did not ask about the specific military affairs. Fang Yuehou was more professional than him. He also did not ask about the logistics affairs. Song Zihuai's team was more professional than him. As long as he controlled the awakeners and the phantom warriors well, he would be able to stab the enemy's heart.
Chu Yunsheng left the crowded crowd in front of the tunnel, and soon came out from the other end, then jumped on the military vehicle waiting for him, and went straight to the scientific research base.
As soon as he got out of the car, he was stopped by Yu Jian, who had been waiting anxiously for a long time.
"What happened?" Chu Yunsheng asked when he saw the serious look on his face.
"Deputy Commander Fang and General Manager Song told me to take you to the conference room as soon as you came back." Yu Jian said in a low voice, "There is information in the west."
Chu Yunsheng nodded. He knew that Fang Yuehou and Song Zihuai had planted many spies in the west. Similarly, there were also many spies in the east. Only after the unification could these spies be eliminated one by one, or they would disappear naturally. But for now, many things still needed to be kept strictly confidential.
Yu Jian could already be regarded as Song Zihuai's confidant, so it was normal for him to know a little bit of information. The two took the elevator and quickly descended underground.
This scientific research base was deep underground. According to Professor Sun, even if it was an extraordinary bomb, as long as it was not continuously attacked, it would be as stable as a mountain and absolutely safe.
However, in front of the insects, this seemingly iron-made scientific research base would be cut open like tofu in the end. The underground destruction ability of the golden-shelled insect would be like a worm that would bite it full of holes.
In the conference room, Chu Yunsheng saw Fang Yuehou and his old acquaintance, Fang Baixiao.
"Mr. Chu is here?" The first to speak was Fang Baixiao. Although his father's position was high, he was only a division commander. In the conference room, his seat was at the back, close to the door, so he was the first to get up. While talking, he pointed to an empty seat and continued, "Please take a seat."
At this time, more than a dozen officials and officers, led by Song Zihuai and Fang Yuehou, stood up one after another and watched Chu Yunsheng walk into the seat.
His seat was in a very special place below Song Zihuai. It was neither the main seat nor the secondary seat, which was suitable for his current situation.
When walking past the conference table, Chu Yunsheng glanced at it slightly. He didn't know most of the people here, but he had already dealt with a few important people, so he was not too unfamiliar with them.
Old Youling was also invited, and it was sitting in the seat of honor, next to Fang Yuehou. Professor Sun, who represented the scientific research base, also nodded slightly and greeted Chu Yunsheng.
Next to Professor Sun, Chu Yunsheng suddenly saw a familiar figure. When he took a closer look, it turned out to be Su Su, which made him feel a little embarrassed.
Seeing Chu Yunsheng was a little stunned, Song Zihuai, who presided over the meeting, simply explained, "The awakener team entrusted her to come and introduce the preparation for the war."
Normally, Yu Xiaohai and others were not qualified to participate in a meeting of this level. Chu Yunsheng was responsible for controlling the awakener team and the ghost warriors, so the specific situation should be introduced by people of Chu Yunsheng's level. Probably these people considered that he came and went without a trace, so they had no choice but to find Yu Xiaohai and Lin Shuiyao and assign such a secretary-like person to attend the meeting.
Since Song Zihuai said so, Chu Yunsheng simply pretended not to see it and sat straight down, while Su Su smiled at him very generously, without any trace.
The heavy door of the conference room slowly closed again. Song Zihuai, who presided over the meeting, glanced at everyone and then said, "Mr. Chu, before you came, we were already halfway through the discussion. This is the latest top-secret information. Take a look, we have drawn up a preliminary plan and decided to send troops in advance!"
*****
The source of the previous chapter came from Piao Huo herself. Before my sister and I were born, we had an older brother who couldn't be born because of an accidental miscarriage. At that time, he was already very old. In order to prevent my mother from seeing him and be sad in the future, and also because of the local customs, even the Night Old Man buried him. My parents still don't know the exact location, and the old man who buried him has already passed away. This matter has become an eternal mystery. If it weren't for the fact that my parents are old, and we have grown up and worked, they would occasionally nag about it, and I might not even know that he came to my house.
I once asked my dad, what would happen if he was born? My dad didn't hide anything and said: if he was born, your sister may have, but you definitely won't!
So, sometimes I wonder, if he was born, where would I be? Maybe I wouldn't exist, and it would be impossible for me to write here …
Because there is no place to worship him every Qingming Festival, I will use the previous chapter to mourn him.
