Chapter 327: The Cute Little Monster

"The Central City is so powerful..."

Lu Xin and others got off the mountain about ten kilometers away from Buffalo City.

The place where they got off the car was located on a winding mountain road, with a high terrain, just right for looking down.

It was afternoon now, and the sky was very clear after the rain. From a distance, you can see the dark buildings on the green plains, like monsters crawling on the ground, looking at the world indifferently.

Before the Red Moon incident, Buffalo City should have been a medium-sized city.

Even though it has become an abandoned city now, you can still feel its strong oppression.

The military base outside Buffalo City can also give people a sense of oppression.

Standing where they are, you can see that a huge camp has been built in the east of Buffalo City at this time. . In the air, seven or eight helicopters were flying around a camp. Below, there are white tents, black military vehicles, and all kinds of temporary equipment that have just been built, which are sophisticated and complex.

Trucks full of armed soldiers are circling a city and setting up a long blockade.

"They got the news at the earliest this morning, right?"

Gecko was a little dumbfounded. At such a distance, he subconsciously lowered his voice: "Even if they set out as soon as they got the news, it has only been a few hours, and they have already built such a large base hundreds of miles away?"

"This is the style of Central City."

Chen Jing smiled and said, "It's easy to say, but I won't underestimate the opponent in my heart, especially this time the black table has set its sights on the research institute, touching their bottom line. However, because Central City always does things with such great courage, their speed will inevitably be a little slower, and we still have time. Let's go, get in before they completely set up the blockade."

After making a decision, he said goodbye to the convoy and left the walkie-talkie.

The people in the team were all very serious. They took the motorcycle that Lu Xin left on the car down. Gao Ting waved her hand and moved one motorcycle each to Chen Jing and Gehu. Then they stood by the car and said goodbye to Lu Xin in tears...

"Why are you crying..."

Lu Xin was scared by their crying. Why did they think I would never come back?

Suddenly, I felt a chill in my heart. Would they just run away?

They still owed me half of the money for the goods...

...

The three motorcycles drove into the path and came to the plain. They drove through the wild grass everywhere so that they would not be seen from a distance. Compared with Chen Jing and Gehu, Lu Xin's motorcycle was naturally of the best quality. He listened to the pleasant beeping sound of his motorcycle, and then looked at the roaring and even clanging sound of the motorcycles ridden by Chen Jing and Gehu, and felt proud.

The camp in the central city was set up in the east, and the blockade was being set up at this time.

So they rushed directly to the west of Buffalo City, and the weeds were divided into several neat lines by their tires.

Although they had been as fast as possible along the way, after arriving at the west of the city, they still saw armed vehicles parked one after another around the city at a distance of one kilometer. At several major intersections, more than two armed vehicles and more than a dozen armed soldiers were parked. Yellow cordons were being drawn, and people inside and outside the city were not allowed to enter or leave at will.

Buffalo City was originally a gathering place for refugees, and there was not even an administrative office, so it was naturally unable to compete with the military power of the central city.

Of course, the central city was also a headache. If Buffalo City had an administrative office, it might be more convenient to do things.

…

Chen Jing and her friends parked their car in the weeds in the distance, looking at the city from afar.

Gecko said, "Rush in directly?"

Lu Xin glanced at the gecko and thought, so barbaric.

Then I also thought, if I tell them that I am visiting relatives, I wonder if they will let me go...

Chen Jing looked at the two of them, sneered, and said: "Whether we rush in directly or go to discuss with them, as long as we meet with the central city, many complications will arise, and they will be on guard, which will make it inconvenient for us to act."

"So our principle is to try not to meet with people from the central city unless it is absolutely necessary..."

The gecko glanced at Chen Jing with some curiosity: "Then..."

Chen Jing smiled and said: "We have told the central city almost all the information and discoveries, but have you forgotten something?"

"Huh?"

The gecko and Lu Xin thought seriously for a while, their faces blank.

Chen Jing looked at a place and said: "Come out!"

The air seemed to be slightly distorted in the place where she was looking. Then Lu Xin and the gecko felt that their eyes were blurred, and they saw a blood-red little monster on the ground out of thin air. The body was short, the skin was red, and it looked like skinned muscle tissue. There are no facial features on the face, only two big ears, no arms and legs, instead there are octopus-like tentacles.

"Ah this..."

Lu Xin suddenly reacted, with a look of surprise on his face.

...

Otherwise, why do I feel that something is missing, and I have forgotten this physical evidence...

But when I think about it carefully, it is not forgotten. When I recall it carefully, I will find that it seems that this monster has always been by my side, following Chen Jing timidly. When I was picked up by them, it squatted at Chen Jing's feet honestly. When I was recalling various information and materials in the chemical plant, it walked around boredly beside me, watching others busy.

Even when they were discussing visiting relatives in the car just now, it was listening on the side.

When they rode a motorcycle to the edge of the city, it actually sat honestly on the back seat of Chen Jing's motorcycle.

But I just didn't see it...

At the chemical plant, what Chen Jing crossed out from her report was actually the content about it surfacing.

...

"As long as the people around it shift their attention to it at the same time, it will enter a state of being ignored."

Chen Jing smiled and explained: "After you caught it before, because the people in the team and Li Gang kept a close eye on it, it never had a chance to disappear. It was not until I met with them and sorted out all the physical evidence that I found that the room where something should be locked was empty, and even the memory of such an incident was fading..."

"But fortunately, the report on hand at that time made me notice that there was such a person."

"..."

"Then... how did you find it?"

Because Lu Xin was detained yesterday, he did not have the opportunity to deeply understand the strength of this monster.

After my sister left the little monster yesterday, it disappeared again, and even I couldn't see it at any time. So now I think about it, it was really dangerous last night. If it had disappeared in that room, how could Chen Jing find it?

"It's just a different ability."

Chen Jing said: "You can only see it if you touch it or keep paying attention to it."

"So, after others lose their attention to it, it will disappear and it will be difficult to be found again."

"However, my ability does not require me to notice it or touch it."

She smiled, pinched her sunglasses, and said: "I just need it to see me, that's enough."

Lu Xin reacted.

When Chen Jing realized that there was actually a little monster imprisoned in this empty room, she directly used her ability on the empty room. Affected by her ability, the little monster will appear in her field of vision and listen to her. More importantly, Chen Jing's ability is continuous. As long as the influence dissipates, she can always see it.

A leader is a leader. The monster that gave her such a headache was solved in an instant for her...

"So we are now..."

Lu Xin also understood Chen Jing's thoughts at this time, and looked down at the little monster.

Facing his eyes, the little monster retreated in fear, and its slender and soft tentacles hugged Chen Jing's calves, trembling.

"It has helped us a lot. The information about Buffalo was eavesdropped by it."

Chen Jing smiled and said, "I originally wanted it to go to the meeting place in the central city to help us get more information, but it's a pity that it is a little timid." Then he looked down at the little monster: "Send us into this city, but remember, don't let us lose consciousness. If you do well, I will consider taking you back to Qinggang, and I will also give you a job..."

When she said this, her pupils were slightly red.

This made her words full of a kind of irresistible charm.

But it seems that she doesn't need to do this, because as soon as she opened her mouth, the little monster nodded repeatedly, so well-behaved.

"This can probably be regarded as waste utilization..."

Lu Xin couldn't help but sigh.

At the same time, he remembered one thing. In the Qinggang Special Cleanup Department, Chen Jing was not only responsible for cleaning up special pollution, but also for recruiting new people...

The little monster listened to Lu Xin's words and showed obvious sadness.

The slender tentacles extended out and wrapped around Lu Xin, the gecko, and Chen Jing's wrist. Lu Xin suddenly felt a strange feeling enveloping him. It was a kind of forgotten sadness. He had felt this feeling once when he first faced this monster. This time, he deliberately controlled himself not to resist this emotion.

After a while, the state tended to stabilize. He looked down and found that he was still the same.

The sun shone down, and he had a shadow. Touching himself, he also had a body.

Pulling the weeds around him would also make a rustling sound, as if nothing had changed.

But when the three of them and a little monster walked directly along the main road towards the city, they found that it was different from usual. They met many people, some ordinary people who planned to enter the city, and some armed soldiers in the central city who had set up a blockade and no longer allowed ordinary people to enter Buffalo. These people were right in front of them, but they couldn't see them.

Even if someone's eyes met theirs, they seemed empty and couldn't see their appearance at all.

...

"Little brother, I don't know why I have a special liking for you when I see you."

When they were a little further away from the people, the gecko whispered to the little monster: "When we get back to Qinggang, I'll take you around."

"You may not know that our Qinggang bathhouse is the boss..."
