Take a break! All the stars for the only guide

Chapter 18 Cold War
Li Chenjun was cleaning his gun when Ji Yaoguang walked in without even knocking and threw the CD in front of him in annoyance.

"This is today's surveillance video. I haven't seen it yet." Ji Yaoguang put his hands in his pockets. His usual gentleness was gone, and only anger remained. "Hurry up and get rid of the man you brought back."

Li Chenjun picked up the disc, his eyes deep, and said nothing. He put the disc into the old-fashioned DVD player, and the electronic screen in the void played the scene in the villa.

The surveillance footage clearly showed Ya'an pouring the drug into the cake and then adding a can of sugar to cover up the smell.

His finger bones were slender and powerful. The cold gun barrel turned between his finger bones, but suddenly stopped. Li Chenjun stared at one of the frames and narrowed his eyes dangerously.

"Go back."

Ji Yaoguang also noticed it and pulled the time back and slowed it down.

This time, the two of them clearly saw Ya'an's little action of hooking the leg of the bench.

"Get her away, right now!" Ji Yaoguang rarely showed his emotions. He put his hands on the table and leaned over to say to Li Chenjun, "Even if she is from the Land of Plenty, so what? We have to find her on our own! Fortunately, she only framed Zhizhi today and didn't do anything to her."

Li Chenjun's dark eyes were like the sea before a storm, but he still did not express his opinion.

Ji Yaoguang said: "After rescuing her from the alien tree trunk, did she cry once? She is such a good and sensible child. She cried like that today. Brother, are you really not distressed?"

How could he not feel bad? But he knew that finding a rich land as soon as possible was the most important thing at the moment.

"Didn't you see it when you went out to investigate today?"

Ji Yaoguang paused, regaining his usual calmness, "You mean the Slaughterer?"

"We are now competing with the Slaughterers to see who is faster. Only insiders know the entrance to the rich land, and outsiders can't get in at all. It's not like no one has come to explore before, but ten years have passed, and what is the result? Didn't they return empty-handed?"

Li Chenjun stared at Ya'an on the surveillance screen and said, "But she knows the way. The Slaughterer is also searching for her now. The value of this girl is self-evident."

Ji Yaoguang was unwilling to accept this, "So you want Zhizhi to suffer?"

Li Chenjun closed his eyes, hiding the murderous intent in his eyes, and said coldly: "When that girl is no longer useful, I will teach her a lesson myself. Before that, I must quickly remove the girl's defenses and get the method to enter the rich land."

Ji Yaoguang looked at him deeply and for the first time raised objections to his actions: "Have you ever thought that the most important thing for Zhizhi may not be a rich land, but your attention to her."

Li Chenjun slowly opened his eyes, a moment of struggle flashed across his brows, but was quickly replaced by determination: "She needs a good growth environment."

Ji Yaoguang stopped persuading him. Before leaving, he glanced at the scattered gun parts on his desk and sighed.

Ever since the guide disappeared, Li Chenjun has been using this method to divert the rage in his body.

He would dismantle a gun and then put it back together, and then dismantle it again. During the worst period, a gun would become thread-slipped after he dismantled and put it back together again and again. This was a compulsive behavior, and he couldn't stop.

It can be seen that Li Chenjun is not having a good time at the moment.

But Ji Yaoguang ignored him. He and Li Chenjun had a big difference in the concept of raising Lu Zhizhi.

When he reached the door, he said to Li Chenjun without turning his head, "You'd better go check on her and stop disassembling your broken gun."

late at night.

Lu Zhizhi had that bizarre dream again.

In her dream, she walked to a dark place, surrounded by people, all wearing black suits, looking down at her. She still couldn't see their faces, but could only feel the cold, oppressive panic. Suddenly, everyone turned into abstract pencil drawings, with black eye sockets, evil laughter, and questions -

"What are your abilities? Show them."

"There can't be any waste in the Lu family. Stop hiding it."

"Release your spirit body. Come on, don't be nervous. Let us see your special abilities."

The overwhelming supernatural pressure was like a net, covering her head.

In the dream, Lu Zhizhi raised her hands to cover her ears and breathed heavily.

Suddenly, she felt someone hugging her from the front and patting her back.

In her dream, she looked up, but there was no one in front of her.

But the pressure disappeared, the dark shadows all around also disappeared, and even the voices of questioning disappeared.

Only a warm and safe feeling remains
She forgot what happened next and did not have any dreams for the rest of the night. When she woke up, Lu Zhizhi looked out through the glass of the incubator. There was no one in the room, only a beam of light coming through the half-open door.

The cake incident just ended like that. After that day, no one mentioned it again. All the team members still treated Lu Zhizhi with love as usual, but there was always a thorn in Lu Zhizhi's heart.

Because after that day, Li Chenjun did not investigate who put the drugs in the cake.

Everyone became increasingly familiar with Ya'an, as if what happened that day was just Lu Zhizhi's nightmare.

For this reason, Lu Zhizhi no longer clung to Li Chenjun. Every day when he came back from outside, she no longer threw herself into his arms, no longer ran to greet him with a smile. She even refused to let Li Chenjun hug her, and she didn't even say a word to him. Li Chenjun was a cold-tempered person and didn't talk much. Facing such Lu Zhizhi, he was somewhat helpless. The two started a "cold war".

Ji Yaoguang noticed Lu Zhizhi's little awkwardness, but because he and Li Chenjun had a consensus, he didn't say anything.

On this day, Li Chenjun led the team out as usual, and Ya'an was already waiting there with his coat.

She has been very attentive and sticking to Li Chenjun these days, which is in stark contrast to Lu Zhizhi's coldness towards Li Chenjun.

Li Chenjun took the coat she handed over and said expressionlessly, "You won't need to do this kind of thing in the future."

Ya'an's smile froze for a moment, and he said, "I just want to do something within my ability to repay you for taking me in."

Li Chenjun didn't respond, but looked at Ali calmly, who immediately said, "Come to think of it, Ya'an, we saw a man yesterday who also had a whistle like yours."

Ya'an was slightly stunned.

This whistle is a tool used by their tribesmen to communicate with each other. Could it be that Ali is talking about her tribesmen?
Ali didn't care about her reaction and continued, "That person is so pitiful. He lost too much blood. But in this world, there are many pitiful people like this."

Yaan asked hurriedly, "What does that person look like?" After she asked, she realized that she was speaking a little too fast, so she laughed dryly and added, "I mean, could it be a Slaughterer? They are very cunning, they will lie on the side of the road and pretend to be dead, and if someone falls for it, they will attack them."

"Looks." Ali looked at Li Chenjun.

Brother Jun didn't tell him what the person looked like, and he didn't know whether it was a man or a woman, because this was a completely fabricated person.

Li Chenjun took the conversation slowly and said to Ya'an, "I didn't go over to see. Why, is it your family?"
