stop fighting

Just as Ling Qian screwed on the bottle cap in his hand, Fang Lujian had already sat next to him, blinking and saying, "Professor Ling, you and the boss..." She pouted in Lu Ze's direction: "Have you had a fight? "

Ling Qian subconsciously shook his head: "No."

Then he remembered Lu Ze's inexplicable anger just now, and added: "Probably he entered menopause early."

The tone is very sincere.

Fang Luxian: "..."

She scratched her head and didn't know how to speak: "Just... Actually, you don't think the captain is usually fierce, but he is very kind to us, really. Every time we go out on a mission, as long as he is there, the whole team It’s like having a solid heart, and we won’t worry about big things. Our team was formed after the establishment of the base. Chen Xin has been with him the longest. I have heard him mention it before, captain I really put most of my energy into the special forces."

When she mentioned Chen Xin, her eyes darkened, and then she forced a smile: "Sometimes we joke in private, no girl can bear a character like the captain, don't he become an old man in the end." Bachelor. Unexpectedly, he didn't abduct the girl, but abducted you back."

Fang Lu looked at Ling Qian with narrowed eyes and smiled.

Ling Qian touched the tip of his nose uncomfortably: "Why do you..."

Fang Luxian smiled even bigger: "Maybe girls are more sensitive in this regard? When I came to look for the captain that night, I saw the interaction between you and I guessed it pretty well."

Ling Qian: "..."

Was it that obvious?He slanders.

"I don't know what happened to the captain today, but I still want to congratulate you when I come here. After all, in our eyes, the captain has always been our own, as if there is a kind of..." She tilted her head and thought for a while: " Let me use an inappropriate metaphor, that is... the feeling of finally pulling my child out. Well, he has a lot of problems, but he is really a nice person, I hope you can live a good life forever. "

Ling Qian knew that she thought of Chen Xin, so he was silent for a while, and just nodded lightly.

The two were silent for a while, Fang Lu raised his wrist to look at the time: "Oh, the rest time is coming soon, I have to hurry over."

When she stood up, Ling Qian called her from behind: "Deer title——"

She turned around: "What's wrong?"

Ling Qian's expression hesitated: "If... I mean, if you find out that Chen Xin lied to you, what will you do?"

Fang Luxian opened his eyes a little wider, with a confused expression on his face: "You lied to me?"

Ling Qian coughed: "You can't lie. Suppose he is still there and you are together, but he has some important things to hide from you, what would you do?"

Fang Lulian thought for a while: "It depends on what it is. But I believe that he will not hide from me about matters of principle. Even if he doesn't tell me for a while, there must be his reasons. Although I can't say that I forgive him unconditionally, I I will do my best to understand him and support him."

Ling Qian didn't speak.

Fang Lu was a little strange: "Professor Ling, why did you suddenly ask this?"

Ling Qian shook his head slowly: "No, I just asked casually, thank you."

Looking at Fang Lujian's back as he walked away, a wry smile slowly appeared on his face.Even if some things were not deliberately concealed, under various circumstances and conditions, it was not so easy to say them out, not to mention that he could almost foresee the consequences of saying them out.

Not everything has a solution, and not everything can be turned back, not to mention that even he himself can't be sure what happened.

Although Lu Ze was talking to Zheng Guanqi and the others, he kept glancing at Ling Qian from the corner of his eye. Seeing Fang Lu passing by, the two seemed to be chatting and laughing for a while, and his thoughts began to wander.

It seems that he shouldn't be so fierce to him just now. He has no experience in this field before, and it is inevitable to be brave for a while...

"Captain—?" Until Zheng Guanqi dragged him back with some doubts.

"Ah? What?" He snapped back to his senses.

Zheng Guanqi glanced at Jude who was stretching on the other side, and lowered his voice hesitantly: "This new guide asked me... for the next week's special training, can I go to our dormitory to make do with it?" Stay for a few days."

Zheng Guanqi originally lived in a four-person room. Two of his roommates died when he was on a mission a while ago, and the remaining one was transferred away. He was the only one left in the empty room for the time being.

Lu Ze thought for a while: "That's fine, anyway, I'll stay here for a few days, and I'll go say hello to you instructor Dong later."

Zheng Guanqi let out a "hmm" and continued to remain silent.

Lu Ze carefully sized him up, and found that this man had lost a lot of weight, and the expression on his face had lost the previous immature radiance, and turned into a preoccupied silence.

Lu Ze raised his hand and rubbed his head, and sat down beside him: "I had something to do with me a few days ago, and I only saw you once. How do you feel during this time?"

Zheng Guanqi subconsciously replied: "Very good."

Lu Ze sighed, looked at him, and didn't speak.

Zheng Guanqi muttered a few words, but didn't understand what he said, then lowered his head.

"Guanqi, I know you're feeling uncomfortable. No one thought about your brother's situation at the time, but don't hold it in your heart. Life is still going to happen. Although it is not easy, you will always be on your own in the future. We all hope You...be stronger."

Zheng Guanqi responded sullenly.

Lu Ze patted him on the shoulder, his eyes fell on Jude who was beside him, and he said thoughtfully: "I saw Jude chatting with you when I came here just now, he seemed to be talking to you when he was with you. Quite a lot? What do you think of him as a person?"

Zheng Guanqi raised his head and frowned slightly: "I can't say, I think he's a bit strange."

"Strange?" Lu Ze raised his eyebrows.

Zheng Guanqi thought for a while: "It's not that he has any intentions, but it seems that he was very smart one minute, and then became stupid the next minute. I don't know if he is really stupid or pretending to be stupid."

Lu Ze let out a "huh", and his eyes were a bit deep.

The next training was as usual, and Ling Qian could basically keep up with Shang Lulian and Zheng Guanqi's rhythm, but his physical fitness was obviously weaker, and he was even worse than Jude.Lu Ze didn't say anything more, maintaining a subtle avoidance between the two of them.

When the training was over in the afternoon, Ling Qian mentioned that he was going to the research institute. Lu Ze responded, and stood there as if he hadn't realized it, and watched him go out of the training ground in a daze.

Fang Luxian couldn't stand it any longer, so he bent Lu Ze's elbow: "Captain, why don't you let Professor Ling go alone?"

Lu Ze gave her a blank look, but said nothing.

Fang Lulian almost rolled his eyes: "You really are... chasing after me!"

Only then did Lu Ze come to his senses, and chased after Ling Qian in the direction he left.

When Ling Qian was about to walk to the entrance of the training ground, he heard footsteps behind him. He subconsciously knew it was Lu Ze, and he didn't turn his head.

Until the arm was pulled from behind.

Lu Ze gasped slightly: "I'll take you there."

Ling Qian shook his head: "No need."

The expression on Lu Ze's face was flattering: "I was wrong just now, and I shouldn't be so aggressive with you. I was afraid that you would carry it by yourself without saying anything, and you would get hurt in the end."

Ling Qian nodded: "I know."

Lu Ze looked at him cautiously: "Are you angry?"

Ling Qian sighed, tilted his head and kissed him on the cheek: "No. I'm sorry."

Lu Ze was a little confused: "I'm sorry for what?"

A faint smile appeared on Ling Qian's face, he raised his hand to touch Lu Ze's temples, and said softly: "There are many things. There are also your painstaking efforts that I can't understand."

Lu Ze's heart became hot, and he grabbed his finger, held it in his palm, bowed his head and kissed him: "You have nothing to be sorry for."

Ling Qian's eyes curled up: "So how do you plan to send me off?"

Lu Ze also laughed: "Let's walk, it's not far anyway."

Perhaps because of the investigation results they returned from the black market, the base's prevention and control inspection level has obviously become stricter.

From the training ground to the gate of the special forces base, there were two groups of guards patrolling. They all stood at attention and saluted when they saw Lu Ze.After going out to the street, there were almost no people on the already deserted street. Occasionally, a patrol car with red lights flashing by would stop and ask them to show their IDs.

After being inspected for the third time, the two exchanged a look, and both of them could see some worry from the other's expression.

"Could it be something happened in the residential area?" Ling Qian asked in a low voice.

Lu Ze shook his head: "Probably not. If something really happened, the level of martial law in the entire base would not be comparable to what it is now. And I always feel... Judging from what Blanche told you, they would not be so hasty Just act."

Ling Qian nodded and shook his head: "I always have a bad feeling."

Lu Ze's face was also very serious: "Now we can only take one step at a time. I hope General Shen can find out some clues sooner."

Because Lu Ze didn't have an ID card, after sending Ling Qian to the Institute of Biology, he could only wait in the reception area outside and couldn't go in with him.

Ling Qian kissed at the corner of his lips: "I'll be out soon."

Lu Ze gave an "um" and squeezed his palm.

This point has passed the off-duty time of the research institute, and Ling Qian wanted to get the test results from the laser laboratory the day before.When passing by Tang Qing's office on the way, he saw that the lights were still on inside without accident.

His footsteps paused, and he walked over and knocked on the door.

"Come in." Tang Qing's voice came from behind the door.

He pushed the door open and walked in: "Senior Sister, haven't you left yet?"

Under the bright white light, Tang Qing's face was abnormally pale. Seeing Ling Qian, she was a little surprised: "Why are you here?"

"Come to confirm a test result." Ling Qian saw that her complexion was not good, and said worriedly: "How long have you not rested? Ji Heng didn't come to pick you up today?"

Tang Qing's eyes flickered, and she forced a smile: "He has something to do these days. I'm fine, maybe just a little hypoglycemia."

Ling Qian frowned in disapproval: "Let's go, you won't be able to finish your work in just a short while. I'll send you back to rest first."

Tang Qing shook her head: "It's okay, I've already eaten something, just take it easy, there is still a sample waiting to be tested in the No. 2 laboratory."

"I'll do it." Ling Qian said.

Tang Qing laughed: "I'm really fine, I'm not as weak as you said. You didn't come alone, did you? Go and finish your business and leave. Don't make Captain Lu wait too long."

Ling Qian was a little surprised: "How do you know that Lu Ze came with me?"

Tang Qing pointed to a small screen next to the desk: "Recently, the research institute has newly installed surveillance, and you can see the situation at the gate."

Ling Qian walked over, and sure enough, he saw Lu Ze sitting in the reception area of ​​the lobby from the small screen there.There are several windows lit up side by side, and it looks like it should be inside the research institute.

"Oh, by the way," Tang Qing seemed to think of something, bent down and opened the safe at her feet, took out an electronic card and handed it to Ling Qian: "This is the new identification card, you keep it safe. Enter all experiments Every room needs to swipe this card."

Ling Qian was a little puzzled: "Didn't there be one?"

Tang Qing shook her head: "Voided."

Ling Qian was really surprised now, he stared at Tang Qing for a few seconds, and said, "Senior Sister, is something wrong?"

Tang Qing leaned back on the chair, with a rare tired look on her face: "It's no big deal, I can still handle it."

Ling Qian didn't move, looking at her suspiciously.

Tang Qing laughed: "Your senior sister is not a child anymore. If she says she's fine, she's fine. You already have a lot of things to worry about. I can take care of you at the research institute."

Ling Qian looked at her for a while, and finally compromised: "All right, no matter what, your own safety comes first."

Tang Qing nodded: "I know."

Seeing that she didn't want to say anything more, Ling Qian turned around and prepared to go out.

As soon as he reached the door, Tang Qing called him from behind: "Xiaoqian."

He turned back: "Senior sister, what's the matter?"

Tang Qing stood up and went around in front of him, raised her hand and straightened the collar of his coat: "It's nothing, I just suddenly felt... my brother is pretty good when he grows up. I heard that Lu Ze and the others will also take it with them when they go on this mission. You, take care of everything outside and take care of yourself."

Ling Qian laughed: "I know, don't worry."

Tang Qing patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, let's go."

The night before departure.

It got dark very early, and there was some cold dampness in the air. It seemed that the thick clouds that had piled up above the head for more than half a month were finally showing signs of falling.

Shen Jianfeng stayed in the office until midnight, and when he went downstairs, the hall was empty.

His eyes fell on the surveillance camera inside, his eyes flickered, he took off his glasses from the bridge of his nose, and wiped them slowly.

The red dot on the surveillance camera flickered, but somehow it disappeared silently.

He didn't move, just stood there quietly in the darkness.

After a few minutes, a faint sound of footsteps came from behind him, and a black figure walked behind him from the stairs.

Shen Jianfeng didn't look back, didn't even raise his eyes, and said in a low voice, "Should I get used to it after these days?"

The figure responded with a "yes".

"Next, Lu Ze and the others are going to the northwest. You go with them, but your task is to find the secret passage of the Bizi River. Here is the map of that area and the relevant information I can find." He said and handed over a document bag over.

"Yes."

"Use the communication channel I gave you earlier. If the communication is interrupted, you don't have to come back and report to me. Just adapt to the situation and do things according to your own judgment. As for Lu Ze and the others, you can hide your identity for a while. Things are really as I thought, their business will be very dangerous, and you may be the only turning point at that time.

"Be careful and take care of everything."

The weather was still bad on the day Lu Ze and the others set out, the sky was dark and the wind was blowing.

General Shen personally went to the city gate to see them off, and he met Lu Ze's eyes with a meaningful expression.He didn't say much else, he just told them to be careful all the way.

Ling Qian, on the other hand, poked his head to look behind him, but was a little disappointed that he didn't see Tang Qing.

General Shen seemed to have guessed what he was thinking, so he looked back and said, "That kid Tang Qing came early this morning to ask me for permission to go to the archives, and I don't know what to check in a hurry, probably I won’t be here to see you off. Let’s start soon, there are still delays on the way.”

Lu Ze responded, saluted the old general, turned around and got into the car.

Zheng Guanqi was driving, Jude was in the passenger seat, Fang Luxian, Lu Ze and Ling Qian were all in the rear compartment.

When they walked out of the security range of the base for about ten kilometers, Ling Qian shouted to the front: "Guanqi, please step aside and stop."

Although Zheng Guanqi didn't know why, seeing that Lu Ze didn't object, he stepped on the brakes and pulled over.

Ling Qian opened the back door and stood by the door, looking around, as if he was looking for something.

After a few minutes, there was a rustling sound from the bushes on their right, and then a snow-white figure shot out like an arrow.

A relieved smile appeared on Ling Qian's face: "Xiaobai!"

I haven't seen him for more than half a month, and the white wolf has lost a lot of weight, but there is still strength in the tense shoulders, and his eyes are alert.When Ling Qian hugged it, it let out a whimper from its throat, and its nose kept pressing on Ling Qian's body, feeling quite aggrieved.

"I get it, I get it, I'm sorry, I won't be separated from you for so long next time." Ling Qian's eyes were also a little red.

Lu Ze stood by the side all the time, with a slight smile on his face.

Fang Lujian also came over, looking like he really wanted to go up and rub Xiaobai's head.

During the silence, her eyes fell on the side of the road outside, her eyes widened in surprise, and then she pointed in a direction: "It's... snowing outside?"

Several people in the car looked in the direction of her finger, and saw that white snow particles fell from the sky at some point, swirling one after another, and the grass tip on the roadside was already covered with a faint white layer.

Suddenly Xiaobai arched his shoulders, turned his head and barked in the direction of the outside.

The expression on Ling Qian's face changed, he took a step back into the car, and turned his head to look outside.

There is silence in the four fields, only the white snow falling from the sky, looking carefully, I don't know if it is because of the gloomy sky, those snowflakes always make people feel a little milky yellow.

It happened that a "snow particle" fell from in front of Ling Qian, and it was about to stop on the pedal of the back door dangling.

He stared at the thing intently for two seconds, his expression changed suddenly, he pushed Xiao Bai back, stopped him in front of the car door, grabbed the handrail next to him and closed the door hard: "Don't open the window Don't open the door either, go away—it's not snow, it's spores!"

The author has something to say:

The base article is officially over~

Xiaobai is back~
