Odd Containment Specialist.

Chapter 508 Su Yue's Depressed Life (4K)

"Okay, let's keep going. I heard some information from the guy from the funeral home just now. I'll tell you as we walk. Although I don't know whether it's true or not, it should be able to provide some reference value." Xia Shou said to everyone.

As time went by, people stood up from the ground one after another. One of them hesitated for a moment and said to Xia Shou with gratitude: "Thank you very much. If I become like this in the future, I will trouble you again."

Xia Shouchong smiled at everyone and said, "You don't have to be so negative. Do you guys in the Clock Tower always look like you're a death squad when you go out to do things? Maybe we can still make it back alive. The person who came to me just now provided a way to escape."

"real or fake?!"

"Can we really escape?"

"I told you that those tomb robbers weren't that simple! They acted like this was their territory when they talked to us. Sure enough, they have a way!"

Seeing everyone cheer up, Xia Shou achieved his goal.

Although the Clock Tower is not their companion, it is now a grasshopper on the same rope, and in subsequent battles, it can also serve as a tool to test the moves of powerful enemies. If their morale is too low, it will affect the winning rate of the final battle.

After all, even if it is [seeking one's own death], whether or not one knows the BOSS's fighting habits in advance will have a decisive impact on the outcome of the battle.

Intelligence is very important.

Xia Shou turned around and looked at her team members. No. 102 was observing the surroundings and remained on alert at all times. Even the people in the clock tower were within her vigilance range.

Gu Liang was counting the remaining medical supplies in his backpack, which were fresh human flesh and blood. While counting, he kept glancing at the dead Kenon, obviously planning to take the corpse.

Shen Fei, carrying a large bag of drinking water and food, was still carefully drawing the map of the underworld.

It can only be said that the Control Bureau's training of combat personnel is much better than that of other organizations. Even in this extremely terrifying situation, No. 102 and Gu Liang did not have any drastic emotional fluctuations. Although they cursed, they still did things cleanly and neatly without any mistakes.

"Um... Boss," Gu Liang walked up to Xia Shou and whispered in his ear, "Can you tell them to take the body of so-and-so with them? The meat in my bag will eventually run out, and this isn't a blood cave anymore, so it's hard to find materials."

Xia Shou frowned and looked hesitantly at the corpse behind him, feeling extremely conflicted.

Reason told him that Gu Liang's idea was right, but at this stage, making such a request to the Clock Tower would affect the unity of the team. They were originally a temporary team, and using the corpses of their companions as medical supplies was a bit...

After hesitating for a moment, Xia Shou walked towards Pedros and explained the situation tactfully.

"So, can you?"

Pedros touched his chin and nodded: "Of course! The doctors in your team can also help us with the treatment. This is judged to significantly increase the survival rate. I will tell them."

It was a good result. Although Gu Liang had to take care of more people, this kind of mutual help could also deepen the cooperation among the people he sent, which was a good thing at the moment. Apparently, Pedros had also considered this.

Xia Shou made an OK gesture to Gu Liang from afar, and his eyes inadvertently fell on Su Yue. When he looked at Su Yue, Su Yue was also looking at him. This kind of coincidence was not the first time it happened.

Su Yue smiled and twisted her hair that was clotted with blood.

She was scared. Although she tried her best to appear decisive and brave, she was actually scared.

Although she had dealt with several abnormal incidents, they were all within her capabilities. Even the incident with Vogt, in her remaining one hour of memory, there were no memories of pain and fear, only rich combat experience.

All the way here, the man in the clock tower had been screaming, forcing Su Yue to think of the worst possible scenario, but she knew clearly that she could not accept such a result.

After all, she joined the Control Bureau and insisted on becoming the closer, not because she believed in the Bureau's concept of maintaining social order. She had no lofty ideals, only selfish desires that could not be more vulgar. She just wanted to be with Xia Shou, so she stubbornly wanted to step into this dangerous world.

She is not afraid of death, but she is also afraid of death.

She had long understood the possibility of sacrificing this kind of result at work. The new instructor in the Control Bureau had mentioned it countless times, and Su Yue had also long been prepared to bear the consequences of the worst outcome. But now that she was really facing this possibility, some questions that she had never considered popped up in her mind one by one.

There are some things that you don't have the chance to say when you are alive, and you will never have the chance to say them again when you die.

But how could she say it? Her thoughts were so strange that even if she told the other person, he probably wouldn't understand.

Suddenly, a hand rested on her shoulder. Su Yue looked up and saw Xia Shou had walked up to her side without her noticing.

"Xiaoyue, don't worry, I'm here, everything will be fine." Xia Shou smiled easily, as if he was really not worried about the current situation at all.

Then, he suddenly lowered his voice and spoke mysteriously.

“You haven’t been a closer for very long, so when you encounter something like this you might think it’s a terrible situation, but it’s actually nothing.

This place is indeed very dangerous for ordinary investigators, but it is just like that for me. You remember the Blood Mother Cult, right? The identity of the third department employee is just my superficial identity. You know, I am an agent.

It's normal for them to be afraid because it's dangerous here, but I'm strong and I will protect you."

Su Yue knew that this was Xia Shou comforting her.

She knew that Xia Shou was very powerful, but she also knew that this time, even for him, it would not be so easy to deal with. Since entering the underworld, her eyes had never left him. She knew... he was under a lot of pressure.

As expected, it’s better not to say those words to Brother Xia Shou at this time.

The kind of inexplicable and weird thoughts that even she herself couldn't understand the reason for.

"Brother Xia Shou."

"Ok?"

“Although I now know that Uncle Yi Lei had people watching me when I was a child, but in fact, in the eyes of others, my life should be very happy. I was born into a good family and received good education. No matter what I want to learn, my parents will satisfy me.

If I want to learn piano, I play piano. If I want to learn violin, I learn violin. If I want to dance ballet, I dance ballet. I have learned many things, but I am not very proficient in any of them... I always give up halfway. "Speaking of this, Su Yue smiled embarrassedly.

She looked a little flustered, and it was obvious that she had a lot to say, but she seemed unable to organize her words well.

“Well, and being an actor, I’ve never told anyone that, in fact, at the beginning, I didn’t want to be an actor at all, I wasn’t happy acting at all…Since I was very young, even if I felt sad, I would try my best to control myself and not show it.

That's weird, right?
I know it’s weird, but I always have a feeling that if I show my unhappiness, it will cause trouble to the people around me.”

"I can understand. I feel the same way sometimes. Everyone has times when they don't want to cause trouble for others and keep their worries to themselves." Xia Shou didn't know why Su Yue suddenly said this, but he still listened patiently and didn't stop her.

“It’s different. Even if I’m alone in the room, I dare not show my sadness. I seldom cry unless I really can’t help it… I know it’s weird for me to say these words, but please listen to me. This is very important to me.

I think I may have some mental problems, but I know I must not go to the doctor, I should be very happy. I remember one time when I was in high school, a boy made me angry, I couldn't help it, I got angry at him, and then the next day I heard that he fell down the stairs and broke his leg, so I never dared to be angry with others again.

I try not to say bad things about others even behind their backs, even if that person is really annoying, even if I am alone in my bedroom, I will not be angry at others.

That's weird, right? Me, what am I talking about? That's not what I meant, but... ugh."

Su Yue became more and more confused as she spoke, looking a little panicked. Finally, she sighed and gave up completely.

She messed up again, and that subtle feeling was really indescribable.

Besides, it's already this time, and I shouldn't say these things. Why am I saying these things now? It's just causing trouble for Brother Xia Shou.

It will also make Brother Xia Shou feel that he is weird.

"Xiao Yue, since you didn't want to be an actor at first, why did you go acting?" Xia Shou asked.

Su Yue was stunned when she heard this, and her confused brain suddenly calmed down.

This was the only question she could answer without hesitation. Although she also felt that her thoughts might be strange, she knew that this was what she thought in her heart.

"Because being seen by many people is a very happy thing, so, so I want to be happy... probably." Su Yue smiled gently and blankly, "Isn't this statement a bit corny?"

Xia Shou opened his eyes wide and looked at Su Yue in surprise, but this surprise was fleeting and he immediately returned to normal.

"What now?" he asked.

"Later, I gradually fell in love with acting. I can express some emotions that I dare not show in daily life on the set, and I will be praised by the director! This is really great." Su Yue's eyes lit up slightly, and she seemed a little happy.

The two were silent for a while, and Su Yue suddenly came back to her senses: "Is it okay to talk about this now? Brother Xia Shou, do you chat with Brother Bai and others during your normal work?"

“Brother Bai can’t do it, but Brother Pang can. We are not robots, and it’s not a bad thing to relax while performing a mission.

Besides, Xiaoyue, you can show your unhappiness now." Xia Shou said sincerely.

Su Yue's heart was shaken and her body shuddered.

Although, anyone could say this to her, or rather, after the inexplicable conversation just now, such comfort was normal.

But the kind of emotion she felt in her heart now was something she had never experienced in her life so far.

After hearing these words, she suddenly realized that these words were destined to be said by Xia Shou to her, and it would only make sense if he said it.

The depressed mood suddenly cheered up, Su Yue clenched her fists and asked seriously:

"Brother Xia Shou, have you ever considered...living an ordinary life? That is, not doing this kind of work, or doing less dangerous work, and living like an ordinary person?"

"I want to, but for some reasons, I can't be an ordinary person." Xia Shou sighed.

If you think about it, it's really ironic.

Before he traveled through time, he actually longed for such a huge change in his life, but when it really happened to him, the situation became very serious.

Being in danger all the time, life is like being in a fog, and my brain seems to be becoming more and more abnormal. But being able to tell that I am becoming abnormal, maybe this is also normal?

But then again, if he were given the chance to do it again and choose on his own initiative, he would definitely choose to travel through time.

Who told Wei Yu to only see him?

If I didn't come... Wei Yu would be too pitiful.

And now it seems that it’s not just Wei Yu who is pitiful, Xiao Yue is the same.

"What are you talking about?" No. 102 came up from behind.

Xia Shou looked at No. 102 warily, fearing that this guy with a bad temper would say something harsh to Su Yue.

Unexpectedly, No. 102 was very gentle to Su Yue.

"Don't worry, it's no big deal. This haunted place is just a place where too many ordinary people died, so the atmosphere is just scary. It's just like a haunted house, and it's actually not that dangerous.

Also, although I don’t want to admit it, the person next to you is really strong as hell.”

No. 102 glanced at Xia Shou, as if conveying something with his eyes.

Then, she patted Su Yue's head gently: "Relax, it's always like this when you first start a mission. My first master died when he took me on the third mission. I was the only one who came back out of five people. At that time, I thought I was dead... Speaking of which, alas..."

While chatting, more building outlines appeared in everyone's field of vision.

The shape of the building is a bit like an ancient Chinese house, but only ruins are left.

“Damn, the atmosphere is pretty good. If it were turned into a ghost market-themed park, it would definitely be a check-in spot for internet celebrities.” Gu Liang complained.

"Didn't you hear anything?" Pedros suddenly said.

The sound carried by the wind sounded a bit like the sound of an army marching, as if many people were approaching them from a distance, but their footsteps were very messy.

"Did you hear it? What's that sound?" Xia Shou took out the mourning stick and asked Huangfu Zuoren.

"Probably a transport vehicle." Huangfu Zuoren was quite cooperative, "The entrance and exit of the funeral home are different from yours. Things brought in from reality won't be corroded. If conditions permit, it's no problem to bring in a tank.

But it is unlikely that they can bring a tank. These people have no base and are poor. They are probably ghost cars from the underworld."

Xia Shou didn't care whether what Huangfu Zuoren said was true or false. This time, no matter what Huangfu Zuoren said, he planned to hide aside. The reason he asked him this question was to test his obedience, observe the scene, and confirm whether the other party was honest.

However, since he said it so readily, he probably wasn't lying.

"Let's hide first." Xia Shou said to the people around him.
