Scavenging Notes: I am the Lucky Star of the End Times

Chapter 220 Years Old

"Dahei" roared through the strong wind and finally returned to the cabin at 11:05 in the evening.

Xu Sansan and Xie Yuan carried the three giant plungers to the training/studio next door, and turned off Qin Ergou's hidden weapon, the keychain, and then they suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

The two looked at the three people lying unconscious on the ground but breathing steadily, and looked at each other.

Xu Sansan sighed lightly:

Hey!

Today is really not peaceful!

Isn't the water in this base a little too deep? !

Xie Yuan rubbed her little head and smiled bitterly:

"The election will be held this snow season. The situation is complicated, and it also involves some other things... so..."

Xu Sansan lowered his head and suddenly spoke:

"Could it be that the thing that the higher-ups at the base have been looking for is with me?"

Xie Yuan paused, took a deep breath and closed his eyes. In fact, he had already guessed it, but he was unwilling to think about it deeply. He really didn't want to involve this girl.

His deep eyes stared at Xu Sansan's lowered head and he said softly:

"It's only theoretically possible, but there's not enough evidence yet..."

Xu Sansan still had his head buried, and his voice suddenly choked up:

"Ergou's danger today, is it also because of me..."

Xie Yuan suddenly interrupted her and held her in his arms:

"Ergou's accident today was just an accident. We still have a lot of clues to sort out and a lot of doubts to clarify.

The thing may also be in my body, but we don’t know what it is yet.

So... don't blame yourself, and don't be sad...

But...if you want to cry, just cry...

I am here……"

Xu Sansan was held tightly in Xie Yuan's arms. She blinked hard, trying to hold back the tears that were about to overflow.

She hasn't cried in a long time.

She hadn’t cried since she lost both her parents to a global pandemic in her previous lifetime.

Because crying can't solve any problem.

She buried her head deeply in Xie Yuan's chest, and then rubbed it back and forth wantonly, rubbing the tears in the corners of her eyes and the unknown objects in her nose onto Xie Yuan's clothes. Then she raised her head with satisfaction, as if she had finished charging. Her two round eyes stared at Xie Yuan brightly:

"After 12 o'clock, I will be 16 years old."

Xie Yuan rubbed her hair again and said softly:

"I know.

I had prepared the hotpot you mentioned before and was waiting for you to come back home.

Now, I guess you are not in the mood to eat..."

"Eat! How could I not want to eat!"

Xu Sansan immediately broke free from Xie Yuan's arms!

Without looking back, she ran to Qin Ergou, checked his breath, listened to his heartbeat, then opened his eyelids and looked at the state of his pupils. Only after confirming that Ergou was indeed fine and just asleep did she breathe a sigh of relief.

After sending a cryptic message to Lao Qin on the computer, telling Ergou that he would be staying outside for one night and asking him not to worry, he quickly ran back to the cabin, washed his hands, and started to get busy setting up the stove.

Xie Yuan looked at the girl who was instantly revived with full health and ran away from his arms, then stared at the large piece of unknown object on his chest. The corners of his lips curved and he sighed softly:

Hey!

There’s really nothing I can do about you!

In the metal auditorium of the guard station, after the rescue work was completed, Director Shi Dongming asked the captains of each guard team to count the number of people.

Five minutes later, Shi Dongming frowned as he looked at the summarized data:

"16 people are missing, and 38 people have been evacuated in advance during the chaos, so no suspicious person was found?"

Wu Feng and Scar looked at each other, and Wu Feng took the initiative to report:

"We have only found silver needles soaked in poison in the metal auditorium and the men's restroom on the first floor. As for the suspicious persons, we have not found them yet..."

Scar immediately added:

"I'd like to apply to lead a team to investigate the pit!"

When Scar and several elite members went down to the bottom of the pit fully armed, they discovered that the pit was actually only 5 meters deep. The sense of abyss from the bottom of the pit was just a light and shadow effect projected by a small gadget inserted on the wall of the pit!

There is a secret passage under the pit, which leads to a manhole cover outside the guard post.

The secret passage was cleaned up very thoroughly, leaving no clues behind...

The three generals also kept communicating with the secretaries and ministers of their respective parties, and finally aimed their guns at the head of the garrison, Shi Dongming:

“The nature of this incident is extremely bad!

Someone had dug a secret passage under the auditorium, but the guards were completely unaware of it!

Has the garrison's surveillance and defense system been eaten by dogs?

The garrison must conduct a thorough investigation into this incident!

And give an explanation to the base!"

At this point, tonight’s raid on the auditorium came to a temporary end, and everyone was finally released and left the guard post one after another.

At midnight, after Wu Feng and Scar sent the injured members of Dawn and Gale back to the lounge, the two separated.

Wu Feng went to a rooftop somewhere in the inner city of the base alone, while Scar took advantage of the chaos and secretly went to a testing center.

On the rooftop, Riyue felt the strong wind coming towards him, ruffled his red hair, turned his head and asked:

"What do you think of what happened tonight?"

Wu Feng pursed his lips and spoke uncertainly:

"It doesn't seem to be directed at the three generals..."

Riyou nodded and continued to ask:

"Did the members of Dawn and Hayate suffer any losses?"

Wu Feng shook his head:

“Fortunately, only a few people were unconscious.

But... Qiangzi disappeared a few days ago."

"The Qiangzi of the Dawn?"

Riyue sneered.

"Just a rat under Moon Shadow's command. He may have been secretly executed."

He looked at the encrypted message he had just received in his optical brain and continued to instruct:

"General Wei's point is that no matter what the real motive of this sneak attack is, since the incident has already happened, we should make good use of it."

Wu Feng looked up suddenly and said puzzledly:

"use?"

Ri Yao's flowing red hair fluttered wantonly in the strong wind. He curled his lips:

“Shi Dongming has been in office long enough!

It’s time to step aside!”

At the same time, Scar opened the shielding device he got from Xie Yuan and quietly slipped into the testing center in the inner city of the base.

Because the windy season begins tonight, in order to ensure that the facilities of the testing center will not be affected during the windy season, according to convention, the base will send people to patrol the testing center all night on the first night between the hot season and the windy season.

Therefore, the testing center will not be locked tonight!

Scar dodged and successfully avoided a team of patrolling engineers who were conducting wind speed tests on the bearing capacity of the metal exterior wall.

He tiptoed and quickly slipped into the liquid testing center on the second floor.

Scar quietly took out two metal bottles from his arms in the darkness.

One bottle was labeled: "Black and Red Experimental Liquid";

Another bottle was labeled: "Cape Monster Blood."

In a shanty town, Xu Sansan and Xie Yuan gathered around a camping pot, huffing and puffing on their homemade Haidilao hotpot.

Xu Sansan swallowed a mouthful of beef rolls covered with garlic paste, oyster sauce, vinegar and sesame oil, and then very contentedly gulped down a large mouthful of Wuliangye liquor he brought back from Kuanzhai Alley. He shook his dizzy head and said with a silly smile:

"Delicious! Hehe!"

Xie Yuan took a sip of the spicy and strong "white water" in the cup, looked at the girl on the other side of the pot whose cheeks were already stained with two blushes, smiled slightly, and murmured to himself:

"Is this... the taste of wine..."

Half an hour later, Xie Yuan put away all the pots and bowls, and pulled Xu Sansan under the light bulb in the hut. His deep eyes stared at the girl in front of him, his eyes full of tenderness and smiles.

Xu Sansan raised his head, tilted it, and stared at the handsome guy in front of him with his big round eyes without blinking. Suddenly, his brain went blank:

my God!

Who is this? !

How can you be so handsome!

Which novel is this male protagonist? !

Xie Yuan felt a little embarrassed by Xu Sansan's sudden and direct gaze, and the tips of his ears immediately turned red.

He slowly pulled out a metal chain from his trouser pocket. He had just finished making this chain last night. On the chain were his and San San's names.

It represents the "Xie" in Xie Yuan and the "San" in Xu Sansan.

As Xie Yuan put the chain on the girl in front of him, he murmured softly:

"You said you want to receive gifts on your birthday, so I want to make a gift for you...

I’m 16 now… Two years later… I think…”

Xu Sansan suddenly burped, patted the handsome guy's hand, and dazedly corrected him seriously:

"16 years old?

No no no!

I was 20 last year, okay!

I am...should be...21 years old this year!

Hiccup~!

21! "

Xie Yuan leaned forward and his hand, which was tying the necklace for the girl, suddenly paused:
