Chapter 144: The Iceberg Melts
Chapter 144: The Iceberg Melts
Mu Xin couldn't sleep the whole night, his mind full of Yan Shaohui's lonely and sad figure standing in the rain.
He tossed and turned in bed, and finally had to open the document again and read it carefully.
According to the investigation, Guo Moru has a relationship with the spy in the Yagura base that they are monitoring. Could it be that Ming Xiche is behind this again?
Can't he just let me live in peace?
Mu Xin now thinks back that something went wrong from the moment Ming Xiche shot him.
How could Guo Moru, a pregnant psychic with not very strong superpowers, bring herself to a residential area so far away from the accident site?
Let's not talk about how far the distance is, but how many zombies will be encountered along the way is unknown. Is it possible for Guo Moru to go so far to find resources? Obviously not!
But what if it’s with Ming Xiche?
Mu Xin took a deep breath. He thought he knew Ming Xiche very well, but he didn't expect him to be so thoughtful. He snatched the medicine, got shot and injured, was rescued by Guo Moru, and then took Guo Moru back to the base...
It seems that there is no necessary connection between these things, but when I think back now, they are actually linked together.
It is said that one should look at a man with new eyes after three days of absence. Now I am still looking at Ming Xi Che of this life with the eyes of my previous life. In fact, fundamentally speaking, I was careless and underestimated my enemy.
So...what is Ming Xiche's real purpose?
Mu Xin thought about it, but couldn't guess what Xi Che was thinking.
However, he was not stupid enough to believe that Ming Xi Che simply wanted to destroy the First Base.
The sky outside the window gradually became lighter in color. Mu Xin rubbed his sore eyes and then glanced at the watch.
It's half past four in the morning.
The people in the headquarters start working at around eight o'clock, so Mu Xin decided to take a nap, otherwise staying up all night would really make people feel tired for the whole day.
However, in order to prevent himself from oversleeping, Mu Xin set the alarm for seven o'clock.
Mu Xin, who usually had a light sleep, had his first deep sleep in a while in just a few hours, so when he woke up he felt much more energetic.
At seven o'clock, Ah Shi and Mu Lei had not yet gotten up, but the Mu family's housekeeper had already gotten up to make breakfast.
The housekeeper was busy in the kitchen when he saw Young Master Mu coming downstairs after getting up early. And it seemed that Young Master Mu was in a good mood.
"Good morning, Uncle Ge." Mu Xin poured a glass of water, took a sip and smiled at the housekeeper.
"You're in a good mood today." Uncle Ge said with a smile, "I've lived here for so many days, but I've never seen you smile like this before."
Mu Xin was stunned for a moment, then he touched the corner of his mouth with his left hand. It was indeed curved upwards.
He grinned, showing his white teeth, "Isn't that good?"
"Yeah, it's good." Uncle Ge took off his apron. "If you want to eat first, go ahead. I'll go hang out the clothes I just washed."
Mu Xin nodded and started eating breakfast.
Because his heart knot had been untied, Mu Xin felt that his appetite had improved a lot. In the past, he could leave most of a bowl of porridge, but now he wanted to eat three bowls to make up for it.
By the time Mu Lei had packed up and went downstairs to eat, Mu Xin was already putting on his coat and going out.
Mu Lei blinked, a little surprised, "Xiao Xin, are you going out?"
"Yeah," Mu Xin raised an eyebrow, feeling a little puzzled, "Any questions?"
"Uh, no problem." Mu Lei chuckled, "Where are you going? How about I give you a ride?"
"I need to go to the headquarters. It's urgent."
Mu Xin put on his shoes, then waved to Mu Lei, "Uncle, I'm leaving first. See you at the headquarters later."
Then Mu Xin left in a hurry.
Mu Lei took a sip of porridge and asked the housekeeper beside him, "Old Ge, what's going on with Xiao Xin?"
"Can't you see it?" Uncle Ge sneered, "It's obvious that the iceberg has melted."
Mu Lei's eyes lit up, and he said 'Oh~' to show that he understood, "Not bad, not bad, very good, hahaha."
When Ah Shi, who had just woken up and walked out of the room, saw the two strange uncles looking at each other and smiling strangely, he thought he might be dreaming, then patted his head and went back to sleep.
On the other side, Mu Xin drove to the headquarters and arrived at the commander-in-chief's office, but did not see Yan Shaohui.
He stopped a staff member and asked where the person had gone, only to find out that Yan Shaohui had taken people to the nearby area to clean up the zombies.
"I don't know why the commander wants to kill the zombies himself this time. Are there particularly high-level zombies that are particularly difficult to deal with?" The staff also didn't know why Yan Shaohui would go there in person.
"There is no such news on the testing platform, so it should not be the case. It is probably something else." Mu Xin frowned and said lightly. At this time, he already had 10,000 question marks in his mind, and no one helped to answer them.
The staff had been worried about whether there would be particularly difficult zombies to deal with, but they were relieved when they heard what Commander Mu said.
"That's good. That's good."
Mu Xin stopped the staff member who wanted to leave and asked who Yan Shaohui brought with him.
Today was the day when Team 1 was scheduled to go out on a mission, so the seven people who were originally supposed to go were the ones who left out Deng Miao, Mu Xin, and Yan Shaohui. Later, Yan Shaohui joined them.
Besides him, there is also Guo Moru.
Mu Xin had a bad feeling in his heart. He let them go, and he stayed in the commander-in-chief's office, sitting on the sofa, feeling uneasy.
If this was an ordinary mission, why would Yan Shaohui go there in person? And why did Yan Shaohui bring Guo Moru with him?
Mu Xin suddenly remembered that he had met Hui Ge who was also following Guo Moru...
The current captain of Team One is Hui Ge. Yan Shaohui chose this time to take Guo Moru on a mission, he must be planning something.
"Damn bastard, you didn't tell me anything again!"
Mu Xin was so angry that he threw the backrest of the sofa onto the commander's seat.
Mu Xin sat on the sofa with a sullen face, veins bulging on his hands that were gripping the sofa. It was obvious that Mu Xin was feeling very uneasy, extremely uneasy.
Yan Shaohui...please don't cause me any more trouble. I haven't forgiven you yet!
