under the tower

Ji Xi woke up instantly.

He sent Chang Huai a question mark, but Chang Huai didn't reply.

The question mark stayed alone on the projection screen of the smart assistant like a stone sinking into the sea.

"What's wrong?" Yan Yi woke up the moment Ji Xi got up.

Ji Xi repeated Chang Huai's original words.

Yan Yi frowned, his face was quite ugly.

It sounds like it's not a good thing, not to mention that Chang Huai specifically asked Ji Xi to bring bodyguards, indicating that there might be danger.

"What should I do?" Ji Xi said.

This is not a question.He was actually waiting for Yan to reply one by one.

"I'm with you." Yan Yi replied, "If anyone asks you, just say I'm your bodyguard."

Ji Xi successfully got the standard answer he wanted.

He smiled and said "OK".

In the early morning of the next day, several pure black military special vehicles were parked under the apartment building in Wanshen District.

A group of thick-skinned men in uniform blocked the door on the eighth floor, and there was no one in Ji Xi's room—because he had lived in Yan Yi's place for a long time.

Their uniforms were not the usual ones in the base, they didn't have any logos, they were just completely and uniformly black.

Even in the entire army, no one wore this uniform.

There was a lot of commotion outside, Ji Xi and Yan Yi dressed neatly, opened the door, and threw themselves into the trap.

Several big men stood in front of Ji Xi, and one of them said in a cold voice: "Hi, please come with us."

Ji Xi asked politely: "May I ask what you want from me?"

The man said coldly: "Sorry, you have no right to know now."

Ji Xi frowned lightly, and the hands behind him subconsciously grabbed Yan Yi's clothes.

"I'm very embarrassed by you." He asked sharply, "I'm an officer who killed mutants for the base. I didn't do anything. Why do you take me away?"

The man said: "We have legitimate reasons, please cooperate."

"I think my personal safety has been violated." Ji Xi feigned anger, "Unless you let me bring my bodyguards, I won't cooperate."

The man hesitated for a moment, and whispered in a low voice, as if he was discussing with several people in the same group.

After a while, he said, "Okay."

"You only have one place to accompany you." The man said, "Please decide carefully."

Without thinking, Ji Xi grabbed Yan Yi beside him: "It's him."

"Are you sure?" the man said, "After confirmation, it cannot be changed, and all subsequent itineraries will be automatically bound to you. At the same time, more restrictive measures will be imposed to restrict you."

Ji Xi froze for a moment: "What do you mean?"

"You don't need to understand." The man repeated calmly like a machine.

"Please confirm for the last time, and then follow us."

Ji Xi grasped Yan Yi's hand unconsciously, then nodded solemnly but resolutely.

They were taken into an unmarked black vehicle, and Ji Xi and Yan Yi sat next to each other. Afterwards, they were forced to turn their hands behind their backs, and cold handcuffs bound their wrists.

A black cloth mask was placed in front of their eyes to ensure that they could not see anything.

Ji Xi obediently allowed herself to be manipulated, but her heart was not so peaceful.

If it weren't for the message that Chang Huai sent in advance, the posture of these people was like kidnapping, and it was impossible for him to just submit so obediently.

He guessed in his heart what the matter was, and it was worth such a mobilization.

"All trips are automatically bound"?

It doesn't sound like they should be locked up for interrogation, but the man's so-called "restrictive measures" are also very meaningful.

His mind was in a mess, and he couldn't figure out what was going on. The car started and sped away.

Ji Xi and Yan Yi were tightly tied to the seat and could not move at all. The driver did not speak, and there was a frozen silence in the car.

Because the vision is completely blinded, the concept of time also becomes blurred.

After about two or three hours, according to Ji Xi's rough and probably inaccurate estimate, their car stopped quietly.

The car door was pulled open, and then the black cloth used to cover Ji Xi and Yan Yi was untied.

Ji Xi opened his eyes and looked outside, what he saw was a gray sky, a boundless wilderness and a series of black gun muzzles.

An iron-gray fence was in front of their car. In the distance, there were three old buildings, not high, only about five or six stories high. Wherever the rest of the eyes could see, there were only officers and soldiers wearing the same pure black uniforms.

One person in the car got out of the car and hooked the handcuffs on Ji Xi's wrist with a silver hook. Ji Xi's two hands were restrained, and he staggered away, the iron chain making a rattling sound.

He turned his head and suddenly realized that he was connected with Yanyi's handcuffs.

As soon as he left, Yan Yi was also pulled forward, like two pigs about to be pulled into a slaughterhouse.

Ji Xi: "..."

what's the situation?

The strong hook dragged them all the way, and at the half-open iron fence door, Ji Xi heard his own "name".

"Lu Xi." The man who pulled them in said to the guard at the door, "A request for identity verification."

Ji Xi:?

The guard at the door pointed at Yan Yi: "Where is this man?"

"His bodyguard."

The guard bowed his head and typed a few words on the operation board, his lips moved up and down twice.

He thought he spoke very lightly, and no one noticed, but Ji Xi, who had extremely sensitive senses, heard what he said clearly——

The man slandered while typing: "Why are there so many bodyguards this year, no way."

A huge question mark appeared on Ji Xi's forehead again.

What?

He has absolutely no way of explaining what happened with his existing store of knowledge.

Is this where the troops of the base are stationed, or what?

Then he had an ominous premonition that he had been tricked by Chang Huai.

A cold mechanical sound interrupted his thoughts.

"Di—passed the identity verification, name: Lu Xi, original number: L#2168312, generated student number: 71."

The person holding the hook immediately pulled Ji Xi over, and hung a metal number plate with 71 on his chest.

Afterwards, the smart assistants in Ji Xi and Yan Yi's ears were forcibly removed.

Ji Xi: "You..."

Before he finished speaking, the man said: "We will keep all your communication equipment temporarily, thank you for your cooperation."

Ji Xi: "Why?"

"You have too many questions, No. 71." The man said coldly, "You are about to annoy me, and I will deduct your points next time."

Ji Xi: "..."

He complained from the bottom of his heart, what is the point deduction?Do you think I will be rare?

The next second, the man glanced at him with laser-like eyes, and pulled the silver hook again.

Ji Xi had no choice but to continue to be dragged forward, and Yan Yi who was behind was also taken along.

He saw that the man's face was quite ugly, like a ferocious beast about to explode.

But for some reason, while walking, Ji Xi saw that he looked like he was owed millions of points, but somehow the corners of his mouth curled up slightly in a joyful mood.

He winked mischievously at Yan Yi, but Yan Yi didn't respond to him, as if wherever his eyes went, there was only endless void.

Ji Xi and Yan Yi were taken into the building they saw when they came, and they were dragged by handcuffs all the way to a room.

When the door opened, Ji Xi was really taken aback.

He was real, and he felt a sense of shock in the physical sense - not because there were any three-headed and six-eyed monsters in the room, but because, there were two bunk beds in it.

The last time Ji Xi saw this thing was in Yu Chengyuan's grocery store. Those children were crowded in such a small room like sardine cans, which even caused some subtle psychological shadows on Ji Xi.

But now, there is no one in this room, and Ji Xi can guess that he and Yan Yi will be honored to be the residents of this canned food room next.

Ji Xi's heart was suddenly filled with sadness.

I can only sigh, Feng Shui takes turns.

Perhaps feeling the resistance brought by Ji Xi's hesitant footsteps, the person holding the silver hook suddenly pulled hard, pulling Ji Xi and Yan Yi into the room, and then, only heard a crisp "click", the two Individuals were chained together and handcuffed to the railing of the upper and lower beds together.

"You stay here." The man left a word indifferently, slammed the door and left.

The handcuffs were not loose, Ji Xi and Yan Yi were tied together, looking at each other.

Ji Xi: "...?"

Ji Xi waited for a while, there were still two vacant beds in the room, he guessed that someone would come.

But looking at it now, there is no such sign, and it is possible that the officers and soldiers set off again to arrest people after they brought them back, and they have not had time to bring them back.

Ji Xi's legs became sore after standing for a while, and he immediately sat down on the lower bed.

The handcuffs were not locked, and there was a little room for movement, just enough for them to sit side by side on the bed.

Ji Xi pulled Yan Yi and pressed him to her lap.

Yan Yi sat down silently.

The man's expression was very serious, and he looked thoughtful.

"Yanyi, what's wrong?" Ji Xi asked, "Is there anything wrong here?"

Don't blame him for being strange, Yan Yi looked quite abnormal after entering the door, without saying a word, like a stone statue in deep thought.

After Ji Xi asked this sentence, Yan Yi still kept his original movements, and after a few seconds, he suddenly said something inexplicable.

"Don't call me by my name."
