Chapter 37
Under the night sky, Wen Xin held the blue ball in his arms and smoothed its fur bit by bit.
The blue ball lay on the young man’s chest, almost as soft as a puddle of water, and a gurgling sound kept coming from its throat.
It mimics a cat and has the same long tail as Heituanzi and the others, but it doesn’t shake it much.
Only when you are very happy will you clap your hands up and down to express your mood.
Wen Xin certainly knew this habitual little action of its.
But he saw that the blue ball’s tail was almost leaving an afterimage, and its claws holding on to him still didn’t relax at all, and he couldn’t help feeling a little strange.
When they first met, Blue Tuanzi hugged him for 10 hours, which made him think that she was a very clingy person, but she was not.
Most of the time, Lantuan likes to soak in the basin and bask in the sun lazily.
Occasionally, the little ball would climb out of the water basin and come to him in the kitchen or living room, purring a few times to ask for his fur to be stroked.
There is no requirement for him to touch for long, just seven or nine times. When Blue Balloon feels comfortable, he will run away on his own.
It was as if what it wanted was not the touch, but the reassurance that he was still there, so that it could feel at ease.
Wen Xin scratched Lan Tuanzi’s chin again.
This is the second time Tuanzi has been so clingy to me since he came home. Is there something wrong…
His hands suddenly froze.
Blue Dumpling noticed the young man’s silence almost at the same time.
It grunted, put its claws on both of his shoulders, raised half of its body, and looked directly at him.
In those big, watery eyes, Wen Xin saw reluctance, but no sadness.
Under the moonlight, it even glowed slightly.
He seemed to be infected by such a look, and the suffocating pain in his heart caused by separation miraculously dissipated a lot.
Wen Xin said softly: “You are sure that we can meet again, right?”
Lan Tuan nodded, stretched his neck, and licked the young man’s forehead gently.
For Tuanzi, his favorite thing is actually to bask in the sun with his partner.
If it had to choose between staying with Wen Xin and basking in the sun, it would probably choose the former.
Therefore, whenever young people have to get up early and go out for work, Lantuanzi feels very reluctant to let them go.
Not only did she have to watch the young man disappear at the doorstep, she also had to run back to the balcony and look down eagerly.
Only when the young man walks out of the garden, the community, and the main road, and his figure is completely blocked by the tall buildings, will it slowly retract its sight.
That kind of waiting must be very difficult to endure.
Just like when it was in the base, struggling to endure the one-year deadline with its friends.
But Lan Tuan rarely remembers that unbearable feeling.
It remembered the sound of the key opening the door, and the young man opened the door with large and small bags in his hands, all of which were delicious food brought back for them.
The hallway was pitch black, making the lights in the house look bright.
The bright light shines on the young man’s smiling face, like millions of streams of light passing through the sky, and the world becomes bright and dazzling.
At that moment, the cat waiting at home forgot all its sadness and only remembered the surprise.
The blue ball tilted its head and rubbed it back and forth on Wen Xin’s cheek.
“Gurgle, gurgle.”
Wen Xin, separation is a sad thing, but don’t be too sad about it, because I will find you, just like I found you the first time, and I will find you the second time too.
“Gu.”
By then, you may be as surprised as I was.
.
The blue group left.
Before it left, it pulled at itself for a long time, but in the end, it only pulled out a small ball of blue fluff.
Thinking of how the little fox pulled out a bunch of hair when it left, Blue Ball was a little shocked.
So Wen Xin, who had just been comforted by Blue Tuanzi, turned around and comforted it with a helpless look.
When Lan Tuan was a little less autistic, Wen Xin took out his suitcase.
“Is there anything you want?”
The dumplings don’t need to eat. The only food they can really get energy from is mutants. They ate before just to satisfy their cravings.
For example, Green Ball can even swallow plastic bags and tables.
Previously, Wen Xin tried to get the dumplings to bring some food with them, but they were very resistant, so he had to give up and not force them.
Blue Dumpling wants to take the clothes.
Just to save space for food, Wen Xin only took a few sets of clothes with him when he left.
The flour ball in front tore off one piece, and the green ball took away two pieces. If it takes away another piece, the other party will have no clothes to wear.
Lan Tuanzi struggled to choose from the suitcase for a long time, and finally fixed her eyes on Wen Xin’s hair and blinked.
Wen Xin: “…”
Blue Dumpling pulled out all the hair on his body for him, so it seemed a bit unreasonable for him to worry about whether he was bald or not at this time.
But Tuanzi didn’t let him shave himself.
It raised its chin, motioning the young man to lower his head, then raised its claws and gently scratched off a small tuft of hair.
It’s a very small amount, and you can’t see it even if you look closely.
It’s just easy to lose.
Wen Xin simply asked Xu Qiang for a sterile bottle and helped Lan Tuanzi put the hair in it.
Also put in there were some little stars that he had folded out of candy wrappers. When put together, the bottle didn’t look so empty after all.
Seeing that Lan Tuanzi had difficulty holding things without hands, Wen Xin took out a thin rope, tied the bottle around Tuanzi’s neck, and constantly adjusted the tightness and length of the rope.
When the other dumplings left, none of them told Wen Xin where they would go in the end. Wen Xin guessed that the dumplings themselves were not quite sure.
But he still couldn’t help asking: “Where are you going after this, can you tell me?”
Without hesitation, the blue ball pointed to the sea and said, “Gu.”
Without a map or a navigator, it was difficult to tell where the blue group was pointing. However, Wen Xin looked at that direction for a long time and took careful note of it in his mind.
The man and the group finally said goodbye at the intersection. Both sides were reluctant to leave, but both were very calm in their hearts.
Wen Xin rubbed Lan Tuan’s head and said, “Take good care of yourself.”
The blue group responded: “Gu.”
It turned and ran into the night, then stopped at the corner at the blue whale’s command.
A bright blue light slowly emerged from the surface of the blue ball’s body, gradually condensing into an elf-like whale.
Because the buildings blocked his view, Wen Xin couldn’t see anything. The blue whale bent slightly in his direction to express his gratitude.
If Wen Xin had not existed, his successor might have lost the desire to live and died early from the cruel torture in the base.
It hates humans, but is grateful for the kindness.
So when Blue Balloon wanted to find Wen Xin, Blue Whale did not try to stop him. Just for safety’s sake, he attached his mental power to the other party.
During the communication with the black group just now, the blue whale told the other party that it actually didn’t plan to live too long.
Human beings disrespect nature, desecrate the ocean, and try to manipulate living creatures at will.
As early as in the base, Blue Whale was disgusted with this.
It is ready to give up the possibility of evolving into a complete form. After the baby walrus has the ability to protect itself, it will suppress all its strength into one point, triggering a tsunami of a hundred meters and engulfing human cities.
While telling the black group about this plan, Blue Whale also sneered.
Human beings came from the ocean, but forgot their roots, and they will eventually be buried in the ocean because of such negligence. What a wonderful ending.
The black group remained noncommittal.
It simply asked: “Can the tsunami you created flood the base?”
The blue whale choked instantly.
Of course not.
The base is located too far from the sea, unless it can create a tsunami of tens of millions of meters and submerge the entire blue planet.
But if it had that kind of power, why would it bother creating a tsunami?
It is simpler and faster to just charge into the base and kill all the researchers.
The black group was completely unaware of its embarrassment and continued to pierce its heart: “So the tsunami could not kill our hated enemy, nor the culprit who brought us pain, but it could kill many humans like Wen Xin who knew nothing.”
“Are you sure you want to do this?”
The blue whale remained silent for a long time, and finally, he sighed with a slight tiredness.
In its eyes, all humans are the same. As a mutant, how could it care about the life or death of humans?
A tsunami at the seaside cannot kill the culprit on the continent, but it can spread the news and let all human beings see how shocking nature’s anger can be.
Isn’t this a warning and revenge?
But before Blue Whale was about to do so, Wen Xin appeared.
Its mental power is attached to the blue ball, almost synchronized with the other’s senses.
During this time together, Blue Balloon felt that Wen Xin was caressing, caring, and tenderness, which he also faithfully conveyed to Blue Whale.
This made it, which originally had resentment towards humans, have a slightly different view of it.
Even if it cannot completely change the blue whale’s view of humans, it is enough to make its hateful brain sober up a little and cool down.
It is thinking seriously.
Are you willing to risk your own death in exchange for the lives of innocent people?
Fortunately, the black group noticed Blue Whale’s hesitation.
It directly helps the other party solve this difficult decision-making problem.
“If you’re going to start a tsunami, I’m going to stop you.”
Blue Whale was stunned for a moment, suspecting that he was hallucinating.
The black ball seemed to know what it was thinking. It wagged its tail and said slowly, “If I want to stop you, I just need to disperse your power before it gathers.”
It raised its eyelids and said, “Believe me, even if I am in a weak state and my current strength is less than one-third of what it was before, it is still easy for me to do this.”
Blue Whale: “…”
It couldn’t believe it: “But why did you stop me? Do you sympathize with those humans?”
“Life and death are determined by fate.” Heituan said, “But we can’t make Wen Xin sad.”
The blue whale shouted angrily: “I can’t drown him!”
Heituan hummed: “But Wen Xin will still be sad, so no.”
Blue Whale looked at the black ball’s unquestionable expression, and for a moment he felt that thousands of swear words were spinning in his mind, almost about to come out of his mouth.
Thinking that it was a well-mannered whale after all, I tried hard to swallow back all the dirty words.
only.
The black group threatened to stop it, but the blue whale was not entirely angry.
There are still some things it can’t put down, such as the baby walrus it found not long ago.
Perhaps in the future the little walrus can become its successor and rule the entire sea clan, but if you think about it carefully, the other party is just a cub after all.
I don’t know how much it would take for a cub to secure that position.
Since it doesn’t have to die in a hurry now, maybe we don’t have to be so anxious to push the burden onto the little walrus.
Or maybe, it can teach the little walrus like a true elder.
It was as if a heavy rock pressing on his heart suddenly broke, and the blue whale couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It looked at the calm and composed appearance of the black ball, and suddenly thought of a question that had puzzled it for a long time.
“Since you have such spare power, why didn’t you attack the base when it was out of control?”
The higher the level of the mutant, the more aggressive it is.
The S-level ones are like ferocious beasts in a cage ready to pounce. As long as there is any chance for them to break free from the cage, they will bite the guard’s throat before escaping.
Blue Whale almost couldn’t control himself at that time.
If it hadn’t been for the fact that there was a wounded little walrus beside it, it would have definitely destroyed most of the base before leaving.
It didn’t believe that No. 1 had no intention of retaliating on the spot.
However, the black group said: “It’s not that I don’t want to kill them, it’s that I can’t kill them.”
Blue Whale was suspicious.
How could Number One not be killed when he could even smash the alloy wall of the base with one claw without any effort?
The black group recalled the dangerous scenes at that time, with murderous intent in its eyes, as if the explosions and screams were surrounding its ears again.
It said in a cold voice: “They have something in their hands that can completely restrain mutants. Number 7 who rushed over fell to the ground on the spot and almost died.”
The memories end here.
A thousand thoughts were running through the blue whale’s mind, but he didn’t show them. He turned to the little walrus and said, “It’s time to go, kid.”
.
On the other side, Wen Xin put away the blue ball’s fur properly when he suddenly heard a sound.
Are there zombies approaching?
He instantly became alert, restrained his breath, gripped the gun at his waist, and slowly approached the source of the sound.
Until a big fluffy purple tail came into Wen Xin’s sight, causing him to stop and frown slightly.
The purple squirrel was grunting as he cleaned up the scene when he suddenly heard a surprised question from behind him.
“Azi?”
It froze.
