Chapter 1408 The Edge of the City (4)
The bald man arranged a room with good soundproofing for Shi Sheng and invited him in respectfully.
This is the way the world is now, whoever has a strong fist is the boss.
"Brother Liu, what is this woman's background?" Brother A asked immediately when he saw Liu Shu coming out of the room.
Liu Shu touched his bald head, his face full of anger, "How do I know?"
A woman appeared out of nowhere and competed with them for territory.
"Brother Liu, that woman is quite handsome." Brother Yi's face was full of wretchedness, completely forgetting that he couldn't stand being beaten before.
"What's the use of being handsome? Can you be used as food?" Liu Shu slapped Brother B, "Go to the city defense team to find out the news. This woman is so powerful. She must have a complicated origin. Maybe she is something. the wanted."
"Squeak-" The door was suddenly opened, and everyone immediately looked back.
A pale face poked out from the door, and its dark eyes stared at them faintly. Liu Shu's scalp felt numb, and his hairless head felt cold.
The girl over there opened her lips and said, "Bring me some water."
Liu Shu breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that she didn't hear him. Fortunately, the room had good sound insulation.
"If you don't want your place to be razed to the ground like the past few days, stop making mistakes." The pale face disappeared at the door, and the door was closed.
Brother A looked at Liu Shu in confusion, "Brother Liu...what does she mean?"
There was only one place that was razed to the ground a few days ago...
Couldn't this be her doing?
"Isn't she a mutant?" Brother B was trembling all over. "I heard that a mutant species was discovered in District 10. It can peel off our skin and put it on them. It's disgusting."
"I've heard about that too, but I heard that they don't have high IQs. Although they can disguise themselves as us, they will be exposed once they talk to people. That one inside... doesn't look like one with low IQs?" Junior Brother A retorted.
Liu Shu rubbed his head out of habit, "That's enough, go get some water."
"Then...Brother Liu, do you want to go to the city defense team?" Brother B asked cautiously.
"What are you going to do? You're looking for death!" Liu Shu slapped Brother B on the head and said with hatred: "Don't act rashly until you find out where she comes from."
Brother B is aggrieved. Didn’t you say you wanted to go just now?
Why is it his fault again?
Shi Sheng lived in this underground area. Liu Shu found excuses to come to see her every day. He was slightly relieved when he found that Shi Sheng just lived here and did nothing strange. Except that she was violent when she came, she didn't show any violent tendencies afterwards. .
"Brother Liu, Brother Liu, it's not good, the people from the city defense team said they want to search our dungeon." Brother A ran over from outside, shouting.
Liu Shu was startled, "What's going on?"
Why do you suddenly want to search the dungeon for no reason?
"I don't know. Since that incident, the Seventh District has been under martial law. I heard that people from the city defense team are arresting people everywhere. The ground has been searched once, and now it's the turn of the underground."
Brother A motioned behind Liu Shu, "Could it be that...he's here to find her?"
Liu Shu rolled his eyes and ordered: "Let them search the front first."
"Oh, okay..." Little Brother A thought about it but thought it was wrong, "Brother Liu, why don't we take this opportunity to hand her over to the city defense team, regardless of her background, and give the city defender a headache."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Go quickly!" Is this woman that easy to deal with?
If she was really the culprit who blew up a building to pieces, they would have to be buried with her before they handed her over to the city defenders.
Brother A left in confusion, and Liu Shucai knocked on the door and entered.
There was only one light in the room, which was very dim. The girl was sitting under the light, playing with an iron sword.
The simple patterns and the weird red light on the iron sword made Liu Shu's heart beat faster. The iron sword seemed to be covered with a layer of pressure, making people afraid to look directly at it.
He quickly looked away, "Miss Jiang, the city defense team is coming to search, do you want to avoid it?"
Shi Sheng slapped the iron sword on the table next to him and asked casually: "Are you afraid of them?"
Liu Shu: "..." What is he afraid of them doing?
Isn’t this you, the suspected ‘fugitive’, here?
If someone from the city defense team sees it, then that's okay!
"Miss Jiang, a good man won't suffer the immediate consequences, why don't you avoid it first?" Liu Shu tried his best to make his words sound nice.
Shi Sheng retorted seriously, "I'm not a hero."
Liu Shu: "..." If you're not a hero, can you suffer the consequences?
Liu Shu talked for a long time, but the girl over there had no intention of leaving. He gritted his teeth and left the room.
It's daytime now, the dungeon is not open yet, and the entire corridor is deserted, except for the city guards who are searching one by one over there.
Liu Shu broke out in a cold sweat. It was over. Those people were holding photos in their hands. Although he hadn't seen who was in the photo yet, he had an intuition in his heart that these people were here to find the woman in the room.
If the people in the defense team knew that he was harboring fugitives, they would definitely be imprisoned...
Liu Shu didn't have any big ambitions, he just wanted to die of old age in peace.
And the dungeon his father left for him could also allow him to die of old age, but if a fugitive suddenly appeared, his wish to die of old age might not come true.
"Oh, isn't this Brother Liu?" The captain of the city defense team waved to Liu Shu, "Brother Liu, don't mind, this is also an order from above, a routine search."
Brother Liu took a deep breath and greeted him skillfully, "Who are you looking for?"
"Well, that's her. Have you seen Brother Liu?" The captain handed the photo to Liu Shu.
The little girl in the photo was wearing pure white clothes and had a pale face. She was almost the same as when he first met Shi Sheng.
Liu Shu snorted coldly, and the hand holding the photo trembled involuntarily.
"What's wrong with Brother Liu?" The captain waved his hand in front of Liu Shu, and asked with a little doubt: "Have you seen her?"
Liu Shu came to his senses and quickly returned the photo, rubbing his sweaty hands on his pants, "No, what did she do?"
The captain was familiar with Liu Shu, and knew that he was a coward who only wanted to die. He subconsciously felt that he would not harbor fugitives, and didn't think much about it. "I don't know. You know, we just arrest whoever the superiors ask us to arrest." who."
The captain waved to the people behind him and urged, "Everyone, search the last few rooms quickly, don't delay Brother Liu's business."
"There's no rush, there's no rush. There's no business during the day and we haven't seen each other for a long time. Why don't I buy you a drink?" Liu Shu reluctantly laughed along.
"No, Brother Liu, there are still many places to search. Let's drink again next time we have a chance!" The captain patted Liu Shu on the shoulder and walked towards the room where Shi Sheng was, saying, "The wine last time tasted good. It’s a pity that there are so few.”
The captain's hand grasped the doorknob and twisted...
Squeak——
