Chapter 21 Is it because you hate Xi?

Crows flew in groups above the birch trees, and the liquid seeping from the bodies scattered on the ground slowly soaked the ashes below.

The hoarse screams continued, and the whole forest was in commotion. Sawyer above looked at this scene, and an incomprehensible doubt arose in his heart:

"How did he know there was a body there?"

When Sawyer came to his senses, he realized that he had already said this sentence. But fortunately, the director's attention was not focused on him. The man's single eye kept staring at Shu Mo below. As he witnessed this scene, his red eyes slowly darkened, as if a flame was ignited in them.

"I hate the sound of crows." Avery was only wearing a very thin piece of clothing. He had a pair of light gray eyes, and his pale, slender arms stretched out from his empty shirt. He looked weak and delicate. , as if the wind would blow over them, but it was his appearance that caused the crows in the forest to scream one after another as if they were stressed.

They are afraid of the people below.

"They are very noisy." Avery's voice seemed to contain an indescribable feeling. He raised his hand and waved, and the crows fell from the sky, as if they had lost control at that moment.

"Sure enough," Shu Mo said, "Actually, the most dangerous pollutant is you."

Avery said nothing. He raised his eyes to look at the Crow Eater not far away, whose stomach had just been cut open by Shu Mo. Now looking dying, it fell to the ground and saw Avery. After a moment, the Crow Eater ignored the wounds on his body and suddenly ran towards Avery's direction while sobbing.

Seeing its appearance, Shu Mo seemed to want to say something, but finally gave way to it. The Crow Eater ran all the way in front of Avery. It looked so huge in front of Avery, but the thin boy stretched out his hand. The Crow Eater seemed to be very dependent on him. He lowered his body and leaned on the ground with his head bent. The other person reached out and stroked his head.

"I just want to protect Ariel." Avery said: "He is too fragile and trusts other people easily."

The boy stretched out his hand to hold the Crow Eater's head, and said softly, from him It exudes an indescribable aura of death. For him, everything except Ariel may not be important. The dangerous aura exuding from Elie is even strong to a sharp level.

Shu Mo took two steps back. His hands were still stained with sticky blood. There were a few blood stains on the man's pale face. The dagger in his hand was dripping with blood. Avery looked towards him. , Shu Mo thought that it would not suddenly slap his "benefactor". Thinking of the guard who was smashed by Avery's palm, Shu Mo took a step back.

However, Avery was very polite to him: "I have never been able to communicate with him. Ariel can't hear my voice, so I asked you for help."

Avery said, "Thank you for your help."

He looked very polite, but Avery was still an extremely dangerous pollutant. Shu Mo wiped his face, wiped the knife in his hand, and walked around the hall: "You can feel it all the time. What's happening outside?"

Avery's eyes flickered and he just said, "Is there anything I need to do?"

Shu Mo said, "Can you let the crows go back to their nests? And it will be dangerous to stay here."

Of course, it's hard to say who this danger is aimed at. Avery looks like a child, but Shu Mo doesn't really treat it like that. The Crow Eater was held in Eli's arms and kept crying. Shu Mo originally wanted to ask, but Eli didn't seem to want anyone else to contact Ariel, so he didn't interfere.

"I can take Ariel back to the containment room." Avery said. The thin and pale boy pressed his face to the monster in his arms, lifting the thick feathers on its face with his hands, revealing a human face underneath. : "Eriel is afraid of the dark and doesn't like to be disturbed. As long as no one disturbs us, the crows will not hurt anyone again."

Under Shu Mo's gaze, Elie's body gradually dissolved, and finally he and the Crow Eater Integrated into one, as it disappeared, the surrounding birch trees also disappeared at an extremely fast speed. Only the body of the guard was still lying on the ground. In front of Shu Mo, the Crow Eater, or Ariel, stood up unsteadily. It looked at Shu Mo, suddenly stretched out its hand, and held it in its palm. A few half-melted candies were given to the Crow Eater by one of its keepers a long time ago, but the Crow Eater has never been willing to eat them.

Shu Mo hesitated for a moment, and finally took the candies with his clean hand. After the last birch tree disappeared, the director said: "Remove the protective shield."

Following his order, the protective shield below After being cleared, the director turned around and walked towards the hall. Behind him, Sawyer felt that something was wrong, but he still followed with a faint hope. The crisp sound of high heels on the ground moved toward Shu Ya. Mo walked in the direction, looking unhurried and unhurried, but with a full sense of oppression.

Before Shu Mo could turn his head, he noticed a sudden itch on his shoulder. It turned out that the spider's eyes that had been clinging to him had finally been grabbed by its owner. The spider's claws kept waving in the air in protest, and finally Still, he was put back into his eyes by the director. The black-haired young man turned around and saw a smile finally showing on the director's cold face, as if he was satisfied: "I'm very satisfied."

The director said, "I hope I saw you right."

Shu Mo winked. Blinking his eyes, to be honest, he was in a good mood now. After that, the director continued: "Although I don't know how you did it, I only look at the results..."

"Director, sir," Suo Sawyer took a deep breath behind him and interrupted his words. The man's eyes fell on him. For a moment, Sawyer felt that the eyes of the man in front of him seemed to want to skin him: "I'm very sad." Sorry, but it is important to contain the contaminants, but the Life Factory can obtain more information in the process..."

His words turned Shu Mo's eyes, and Shu Mo looked at the guards on the ground again, and had to say, In fact, he was also very curious about the existence of the guards, and even more curious about how they did it.

Both parties were very curious about the other's ability, but neither of them spoke. The director who stood between them spoke:

"Shu Mo, tell me about the information you collected."

The director picked up the instrument in his hand, and it showed Shu Mo rubbed the blood on his fingers from the information the guards had just collected. It still felt a little sticky and uncomfortable.

He said: "This pollutant is a combination. The crow-eater's name is Ariel, and the pollutant in its body is called Eli. Eli is the real fourth-level pollutant. When it appears, , all servants will be controlled by the other party; Ariel is not a strong threat, it only infects the surrounding creatures, but what really causes the creature to become a servant is the Aili in its body."

Shu Mo said . As he said that, he looked at Sawyer and motioned for him to continue adding. However, Sawyer's expression was very confused: "How do you know this?"

Shu Mo said, "This is an obvious thing."

No, it's not obvious. !

Seeing that Sawyer remained silent, Shu Mo could only continue: "It is no longer appropriate to call them crow eaters, because Ariel will no longer eat crows." The man paused, usually not saying much. He seemed to be a bit eloquent about pollutants: "Maybe we should change their numbers."

The director listened carefully, and he seemed very tolerant at this time: "What do you think they should be called? Okay?"

Shu Mo thought for a moment and then said: "Let's call them Ariel and Avery. Their containment method is very simple. Avery hates noise. As long as you don't disturb it, they will not leave the containment room. ”

In fact, as long as you give them a spacious and quiet environment, and occasionally chat with Ariel, then he will be very satisfied. Pollutants have their own habits and containment methods, but considering Aili's character, Shu Mo felt that it was best not to let others come into contact with Aili.

The director narrowed his eyes and looked at Shu Mo. At that moment, he seemed to be more interested in Shu Mo than the level four pollutant: "You are very good at pollutants," the man continued. : "I was wasting your talent by letting you stay at the lower level before."

Sawyer on the side turned over the instruments in his hand, and in the end he could only accept one fact: he had indeed failed.

But Sawyer is still a little unwilling, because he did not complete the order of Life Factory. What's more, he doesn't feel that he has lost all opportunities:

"Mr. Shu Mo's ability is indeed outstanding," good guy, he was still angry at Shu Mo before. , now his attitude suddenly became gentle, and Shu Mo couldn't help but take another look at him: "But the technology of Life Factory is not useless. Sir, you can think about it, if this technology can be compared with the hunter's ability Combined, how much convenience will we get during the experiment..."

"I hate incompetent people."

"I hate incompetent and noisy people even more."

The man interrupted. The director didn't even look back. He was extremely tall. Wearing a pair of exquisite long boots, he looked even taller. He was so tall that the shadow pressed down on everyone else. Even Shu Mo was covered by him. The aura exuded forced him to lower his head and avoid it.

As the director spoke, he picked up the instrument in his hand and threw it directly to Sawyer aside. His attitude towards the guards was already very obvious, but Sawyer didn't even know why.

"I know the source of the energy core and how that thing works." The director said, "Go back and tell Megade that it doesn't matter what he wants to do, but if he dares to interfere in the laboratory's affairs again, I will Pick off his head and plant flowers."

The director's voice was very gentle, so gentle that it made people's hair stand on end. "Do you understand?"

Sawyer was a little confused, because Migard is the name of the chairman of Life Factory. When he met the director's eyes, Sawyer realized that it was impossible for him to convince the director from the beginning, because the other party couldn't see clearly everything about the Life Factory from the bottom of his heart.

Even if the chairman comes in person, he can only retreat in front of the director, because the man in front of him also despises him. No, the director has always despised everyone who is not in his eyes equally. Thinking of this, he simply The bitterness in Ya's heart was relieved a little. He could only take a deep breath, gritted his teeth and saluted: "I'm sorry to bother you."

The director didn't look back: "Go away."

In the end, Suo Ya could only leave in embarrassment. , In fact, Shu Mo still doesn't fully understand what happened, but this does not prevent him from sympathizing with Sawyer who ran away in front of the director with his tail between his legs. The sense of oppression given by the new boss is too strong.

Shu Mo thought, and then he saw the director turning to look at him. The sticky sight flowed over him. Shu Mo raised his head and glanced at him, and then couldn't help but lower his head, because he began to feel that the director was like I wish I could tie him to the operating table, and then use a scalpel to dissect him carefully and bit by bit, cutting out every piece of flesh and blood to study, to satisfy the director's strong desire for discovery.

Shu Mo was a little unable to raise his head under the pressure of that gaze. He could only try to buy himself some time to catch his breath: "Director, this is back to you."

That was the dagger he had gotten before, but Shu Mo stretched it out But his hand was directly held down by the director. His wrist seemed to have hit a completely inorganic metal block, cold and hard.

"No need." The director said softly: "You passed the test I prepared for you. Although you came a little late, I am still very satisfied with it."

"But now, I want to ask you a question. "

The annoying person left. The other experimenters watched from a distance and did not dare to step forward. Only Shu Mo and the director were left here. Shu Mo blinked and heard the director's thick voice coming from his eardrums. Slowly pouring in:

"Before you came, I learned about you from Xi's mouth. There are some things that make me curious."

The man's voice was slightly raised, and he continued: "You rejected Xi's invitation. "I refused to be the messenger of the other party."

"...Is it because you hate him?"

the director said, bending down slightly. His breath came closer, and his bones were numb, and even his eardrums began to itch. The voice came very close, with a pleasant fragrance. Shu Mo's fingers were pressed by him. In a daze, the bloody dagger fell to the ground. Shu Mo felt as if It was wrapped in layers of spider silk, unable to move.
