Forced to take the love route by a scumbag villain

The two of them were on the top of a hundred-meter-high tower, staring blankly at the fires igniting on the edge of the city. Not sure whether it was because of the sudden increase in wind force or the bad feeling in his heart, Meng Xing suddenly trembled.

At the same time, he also came to his senses and took out his mobile phone to see what news was on the Internet. He stood on the top of the tower. Although he could see the fire, it was too far away. He had no idea what was happening on the edge.

But when he opened the social software, he found everything was calm, as if nothing had happened. But this is not good news. On the contrary, it shows that the government is now in chaos and cannot control the situation.

Meng Xing didn't see any useful messages on his phone, but his move reminded Wen Rulan. Wen Rulan had many more channels for obtaining news than Meng Xing. He quickly wanted to take out his phone, but when he reached for his pocket, he found nothing.

Meng Xing saw the clues from his expression and guessed: "You don't have your mobile phone with you?"

"Well..." Wen Rulan was a little annoyed: "Maybe it was left in the control room."

Meng Xing pondered for a moment and suggested: "Let's go down first."

Standing on it, you can't see anything except the firelight. You still have to go down and get Wen Rulan's cell phone to know the situation in the outside world.

Wen Rulan nodded in agreement, and the two began to climb down one after the other.

Going down a mountain is harder than going up, and the same goes for climbing a ladder. The exposed metal ladder was covered with ice and was easily slippery. Meng Xing got off first. Although he was anxious to find out what was going on, he knew the danger of climbing the ladder, so he controlled his speed very slowly.

Wen Rulan did the same. The two of them climbed down step by step. When they were about ten meters away from the terrace, Wen Rulan stopped for a moment.

Meng Xing didn't know why, so he shouted up: "What's wrong?"

Wen Rulan didn't answer, just looked in the direction behind him. He stretched out his hand and pointed: "Look over there."

Meng Xing looked over and saw dense black spots pouring in from outside the city. These are people, people outside the city.

The defense line at the border has been broken through, and a large number of people are pouring in. These must not be people with tickets. Their number is almost twice as many as the people Meng Xing saw on the street during the day. , filling the empty streets at night with water.

This is not the end yet. The flow of people is still increasing. The people in front are getting deeper and deeper into the city. They have no clear direction. Most of the people participating in the riot are not really crazy, but just want a chance to survive.

After finally entering the city, naturally he quickly found a place to hide, lest the government kick him out when he regained control of the situation.

But there were also some people who showed a clear purpose and headed straight for the central tower.

They are still a certain distance away from the central tower, and they may change their route and go somewhere else, but both Meng Xing and Wen Rulan have an intuition that this group of people is coming for the central tower.

Meng Xing thought of the "die together" remarks he had seen in those private groups before, and his inner anxiety couldn't help but increase a little more.

The two continued to go down, but they still controlled the speed. They couldn't go too fast. If they went too fast, it would be easy to make mistakes. If they fell, it would be bad.

With great difficulty, Meng Xing jumped down the last step of the ladder and successfully reached the terrace. Before he could take a breath, Wen Rulan, who was hanging two meters above, suddenly slipped due to her anxiety and failure to control her balance.

He tried hard to regain control of his balance, but failed in the end and fell straight down.

Meng Xing's heart suddenly jumped from his chest to his throat. He quickly reached out to catch it. Fortunately, the height was not very high. Wen Rulan fell into his arms and was supported by him.

However, when he landed, Wen Rulan's left foot twisted, and he raised his eyebrows in pain.

Meng Xing asked hurriedly: "Are you okay?"

"It's okay." Wen Rulan shook her head, just twisted it a little, and the pain passed. He tried walking again, but it was nothing serious except that it felt a little more awkward than before.

"Let's go down quickly." He said as he pressed the elevator button.

Meng Xing followed closely, and they took the elevator back to the interior of the central tower. The ubiquitous heating enveloped them, which was in sharp contrast to the cold outside.

But neither of them was in a hurry to take off their heavy coats. They were not sure what would happen. It was still unclear whether they could continue to stay in the tower. It was better to wear insurance.

They arrived at the central control room where they had stayed before, but it was still empty. Wen Rulan found his mobile phone on the console. He turned on the screen, and before he had time to read the message, he received a call.

He pressed answer, and the familiar voice of a colleague from the institute came from the receiver.

"Professor Wen, something happened. The security team is looking for you. Come downstairs quickly!"

"I'll go right away." Wen Rulan responded.

There was no time to stop. As soon as they arrived at the control room and before they could take a breath, they set off again.

The foot had just been twisted, and although Wen Rulan could walk, she couldn't walk fast. Meng Xing supported him while walking down.

They went directly to the bottom of the tower, the largest hall on the first floor. There were many people in the hall, including Wen Rulan's colleagues and security personnel in military uniforms.

It's now ten forty-five, and it's not half past eleven yet. It was supposed to be rest time, but something unexpected happened. The security personnel quickly called back all the researchers who went out for supper. These people are studying things that are related to the survival of humankind. The artificial sun must not fail.

The people were found one after another, but Wen Rulan, the most important person in the research team, could not be contacted. He made several calls but no one answered. The security team was anxiously preparing to send people to look for him. Wen Rulan finally Answered the phone.

As soon as Wen Rulan showed up, an officer wearing a military uniform and the rank of captain came over. He was not the original garrison here. He had just arrived after being assigned by his superiors, so he was a little unfamiliar with Wen Rulan. He first confirmed his identity: "Professor Wen?"

"It's me." Wen Rulan nodded and then asked, "What happened?"

"Someone launched a coup, the city defense troops fought with each other, and people from outside took advantage of the situation. Now the whole city is in chaos." The captain gave a brief and concise summary, and then asked: "Professor Wen, the superior sent me to inquire about the artificial intelligence. According to the progress of the sun, can it start on time at zero o'clock tonight?"

"Okay." Wen Rulan replied firmly. He had already arranged everything.

The captain breathed a sigh of relief and then said: "Although the central tower has security, the target is too large and vulnerable to attack. Professor Wen, we will arrange for you to move together later."

His proposal was not unreasonable. Meng Xing and Wen Rulan had seen someone coming in this direction on the top of the tower before. It would undoubtedly be dangerous to stay in the central tower, but Wen Rulan rejected the proposal.

"No!" He frowned: "I have to watch in the control room during startup and make corrections based on real-time data, otherwise the machine may blow up due to loss of control."

When he heard that the explosion was so serious, the captain's expression changed. He hesitated for a moment, then turned around and made a phone call to ask for instructions from his superiors. Then he came back and gave a new proposal: "Professor Wen, You continue to stay in the central tower, and we will do our best to ensure your safety."

He only said that he would do his best, but not necessarily, because under the current situation, it was not certain whether the current government could win in this coup, and naturally there was no spare power to support the central tower. Their remaining team of less than a hundred people is the last strength of the defense center tower, but the enemy does not know the number, and no one dares to guarantee it.

Wen Rulan understood what he meant and the danger of staying, but he had to stay.

Not because of any responsibility, or for the sake of human survival, but simply because the program for the activation of the "Golden Crow" has been set up and must be activated tonight. If he does not stay, the "Golden Crow" will lose control and blow up. By then, The ice and snow of the doomsday will swallow up all life. He will die at sunset on August 8th, and the same will happen to Meng Xing.

He agreed to the proposal. The captain said nothing more and just led the team to deploy defensive positions outside. At the same time, Wen Rulan and other researchers without combat capabilities were asked to stay at the top of the tower.

If someone really attacks the central tower, the lobby on the first floor will directly face the attack, and the upper floor is obviously safer.

No one had any objections, and everyone returned to their places. The soldiers stayed on the first floor, and the researchers went to the central control room at the top of the tower, which has the highest level of protection and is the safest.

Wen Rulan did not go. He originally wanted to go, but Meng Xing took him to the lounge on the lower floor of the control room and stopped.

Wen Rulan was a little confused, and Meng Xing did not explain. He only made sure that everyone else had gone up and there was no one here except them, so he let Wen Rulan sit on the sofa and he sat on the sofa next to him.

He held Wen Rulan's left calf, carefully took off Wen Rulan's shoes and socks, and rolled up his pants. He saw a swollen red patch that was different from the surrounding fair skin.

"Does it hurt?" He gently touched Wen Rulan's ankle.

Wen Rulan said nothing, but his five toes involuntarily tightened. This performance said everything.

"I'm going to find some ice." Meng Xing said as he stood up from the sofa.

He went directly to the terrace on the top of the tower. It was very easy to find ice in this weather. Meng Xing brought a bag and filled it with a bag of ice cubes easily.

After pretending, he immediately returned to the lounge and returned to Wen Rulan. He found a smaller plastic bag, filled it with some ice, and added some water to neutralize the coldness of the ice so that the temperature of the ice bag would not be too low and cause frostbite to the skin, and then placed it on Wen Rulan's body. on the ankle.

Even though Meng Xing added water, the coldness from the ice pack still made Wen Rulan flinch again. He subconsciously retracted his legs, but Meng Xing held his ankle in time.

Meng Xing was holding the uninjured part of the ankle, which would not cause him pain, but would prevent him from moving away.

The ice cubes covered the injured area. The painful and cold feeling at that moment made Wen Rulan purse her lips tightly and did not speak for a long time. But when he slowly recovered, he felt that his ankle was much better than before.

The pain has lessened, and although it still hurts a little, it's not as bad as before. At the same time, he also belatedly realized the ambiguity of this gesture.

His ankle was held in Meng Xing's hand. Normally, Wen Rulan would have had some charming thoughts and teased Meng Xing. But he is not in the mood right now. The central tower may be attacked at any time, and his own defensive force only has a force of more than a hundred people.

All the troops are concentrated on the border defense, and there are very few people left in the central tower. It does not require the enemy to be strong. Even refugees without firearms can break through their defenses as long as they are large enough.

Moreover, what makes Wen Rulan most uneasy is that in one hour, it will be August 8th, his destined death date.

Meng Xing also thought of this. Although he was helping Wen Rulan apply ice packs, he was actually a little absent-minded. He kept looking at his phone, estimating the time it would take to get from the edge of Noah City to the central tower.

It took them nearly an hour to get from the edge to the central tower during the day, but it actually didn't take that long. They were delayed for a while on the road. In fact, more than half an hour was enough, and it started from the time they saw the fire on the top of the tower. Counting on, there are about ten minutes left.

"Wait a moment..." Two voices sounded at the same time in the quiet lounge.

Meng Xing and Wen Rulan were both stunned for a moment, looking at each other in confusion.

"What do you want to say?" Wen Rulan broke the silence first.

"Wait a while, the ice pack will be applied, and then you go back to the control room." Meng Xing replied.

What he said was exactly the same as what Wen Rulan wanted to say, except for the subject. Wen Rulan wanted to say "let's go back to the control room together", but Meng Xing only said "you".

"Where are you going?" Wen Rulan frowned.

"I'll go down there and help..."

"no!"

Before Meng Xing could finish his words, he was interrupted by Wen Rulan. He was not surprised, but he looked a little helpless: "The central tower cannot be captured, I must go."

Wen Rulan pursed her lips tightly and wanted to refute, but she had no reason to refute.

The central tower must not be captured or destroyed, not only the top level that controls the "Golden Crow", but also the bottom of the tower. Below is the electrical device. Once it is destroyed, the "Golden Crow" will also be unable to start.

Our own side was short of manpower, and although Meng Xing's skills were not top-notch, they were still above average, so going to help was the best option.

Although there will be danger, waiting on the tower for the power system to be destroyed and the end to come is still death.

"Then I..." Wen Rulan wanted to say that she would follow Meng Xing again, but she swallowed it before she could say it.

Not only because he sprained his ankle, but also because he had to stay up there and keep an eye on the progress of the "Golden Crow" activation.

This was a situation where he had no choice. He could only choose to agree, but before he actually made the decision to agree, there was a long silence.

The ice pack had been applied, but he held on to Meng Xing's sleeve and refused to let go. Later, Meng Xing's clean and neat sleeves were pulled into a wrinkled ball by him, but he still didn't speak.

But Meng Xing could not wait any longer. He heard a noise coming from under the tower and the enemy was coming.

Meng Xing was about to pull away Wen Rulan's hand, but Wen Rulan retracted first. He lowered his head, clenched his fingers tightly, and used great strength to control himself.

"Be safe." He whispered.

"Yes." Meng Xing nodded vigorously, and then ran towards the bottom of the tower without stopping.
