"Big brother, we're very close to the West District now. Shall I go and call Ba Zai over?"
"By the time Bazai gets here, Pei Si will be soaked to the bone."
Yu An had already calculated the distance; it would be too late for him to go back and get reinforcements.
The little fox was at its wit's end.
He thought about Pei Si, whom he had met before, and hesitated before saying, "I've heard other kids talk about Pei Si. I heard he has a particularly lucky life."
He has escaped death several times, and nothing or no one has actually killed him.
"Besides, isn't Pei Si from a military background? He must be able to swim. As long as he can swim, he definitely won't drown."
The little fox's comforting words gradually calmed Yu An down.
"You're right."
Yu An raised his hand and patted the little fox's head: "Pei Si can swim, he can definitely swim out."
If Pei Si swims away, she will definitely come looking for him after she gets away.
All Yu An needs to do now is wait for Pei Si to contact him.
Yu An was right; Pei Si could swim.
He almost drowned because of a leg cramp. After choking on some water, he inevitably sank.
Just when he thought he was about to kick the bucket, a splash of red caught his eye.
Immediately afterwards, he felt a weight on his waist as something wrapped around him.
It was difficult to open his eyes underwater, and Pei Si could only vaguely see that red color. After being carried along for a while, his cramped calf gradually recovered.
Then, the "person" who was swimming with him suddenly began to sink.
Pei Si: "..."
Pei Si was stunned for two seconds, then subconsciously reached out to catch the other person.
He followed the direction of the current and finally brought the drowning "person" to the shore.
After bringing the "person" up, Pei Si looked down and saw the other person's face and appearance.
It's beautiful.
It is a kind of beauty that almost transcends gender.
His hair was long and curly, falling loosely over his shoulders. His face, wet with water, was so exquisite that words failed to describe it.
Pei Si looked into his eyes, those icy blue eyes like sapphires, as if they could draw you in.
He couldn't help but soften his breathing.
If the other person hadn't had an Adam's apple, he really wouldn't have been able to tell their gender.
The beautiful woman was naked from the waist up, her fair, jade-like skin appearing flawless, while her lower body—
It was a tail, a red fish tail.
The tail only swayed briefly in front of him for a few seconds before being replaced by the legs.
Pei Si: "..."
Pei Si looked at his legs, which were still completely naked, and silently took off her clothes to cover them.
"Well, it's getting late, the temperature should drop."
Pei Si was full of confusion before she went ashore.
But at this moment, he completely forgot what he was going to say.
The beautiful woman looked at him expressionlessly, showing no gratitude whatsoever for the clothes he offered.
Pei Siqing cleared her throat, regaining a little of her composure.
He asked, "Why did you suddenly sink?"
I was swimming along just fine when suddenly I started to sink, it felt like I was drowning.
But how could that be? He saw the fish's tail.
This should be a fish-shaped aberration; as we all know, no fish drowns.
"I can not swim."
The beautiful woman suddenly spoke, interrupting Pei Si's thoughts.
His voice is very pleasant, a hundred times better than the voices of all the voice actors who were once popular.
But the words spoken through that beautiful voice left Pei Si completely bewildered.
After explaining that he couldn't swim, he asked Pei Si, "Why did you kill Zhu Gan?"
Zhu Gan is the name of the leader of the North District.
When Pei Si heard him mention Zhu Gan, a sense of crisis suddenly arose in her heart.
Could this fish that can't swim be in cahoots with those pursuers?
This idea only existed for a moment before he overturned it.
If they really are in cahoots, then he just said there was no need to save himself.
"Zhu Gan is too good at stirring up trouble; he's been trying to sow discord among all parties."
The reason he aroused Xie Chiyuan's murderous intent this time was because he chose the zombie king to cause trouble.
If we don't kill him, there's no guarantee he won't cause trouble again next time.
"Is the West District planning to annex the North District?"
"As far as I know, there is no such plan."
Even if Zhu Gan dies in the North District, it doesn't mean that other districts can easily annex it.
Moreover, at this critical juncture of post-disaster reconstruction, the Western District is already overwhelmed with its own affairs, and the military's strength is simply insufficient. At this time, abandoning the stabilization of the Western District to annex the Northern District...
It looks incredibly stupid.
After listening to him finish speaking, the beautiful woman simply said "Oh".
He didn't seem to have any intention of communicating with Pei Siduo; after saying only a few words, he got up to leave.
Pei Si stared at his retreating figure, then asked in a daze, "Where are you going?"
The beauty didn't answer, she just kept walking.
Pei thought about the big red tail he had just seen, and for some reason, the picture of the little fat fish he had saved flashed into his mind.
The little fat fish's tail is also red.
Two red-tailed fish flashed through Pei Si's mind at the same time.
As if possessed, he blurted out, "Have you ever seen a little fat fish? Its tail is red, just like yours."
beauty:"……"
The beauty stopped in her tracks.
He turned around and stared coldly at Pei Si.
at the same time.
Yu An, who was searching for Pei Si, received a call from Xie Chiyuan.
"An'an, you've been gone for three days."
When Yu An first came out, he confidently told Xie Chiyuan that he would be back in two days.
He's a day overdue now, and there's still no sign of him going back.
Xie Chiyuan had endured until now before making this call.
When Yu An received the call, she felt both guilty and relieved.
He told Xie Chiyuan about his situation truthfully, and at the end, Yu An eagerly sought his advice.
"Xie Chiyuan, I haven't heard from Pei Si, nor has he come to see me. What should I do now?"
Send me your current location.
Although Xie Chiyuan said he trusted Yu An while he was away from home, he was still worried about him.
So Yu An would send him her location every now and then these past two days.
When the location was sent over, Xie Chiyuan checked the distance.
"It's not too far, I'll come pick you up."
Xie Chiyuan took Bazai with him and left the base together.
When Ba Zai was brought out, he was a little reluctant. Without his older brother accompanying him, he didn't really want to go out with Xie Chiyuan.
Until Xie Chiyuan said to him, "Let's go find your older brother."
Ba Zai: "!"
Bazai reverted to its original form and climbed onto his shoulder to sit down.
Let's go!
He commanded, "Let's hurry and find our eldest brother, and try to bring him back to sleep with us."
Xie Chiyuan pinched his little tentacle and smiled: "Come on, let's bring your older brother back to sleep."
They left without alerting anyone, not even the other cubs knew.
I don't know how much time passed.
Yu An's clothes were all dry, but Xie Chiyuan still hadn't arrived.
The little fox found an empty wooden house not far away and called Yu An over.
"Brother, let's wait here."
The little fox dutifully made a bed for Yu An so that he could rest.
The small bed in the cabin was originally dirty and tiny, but after being washed with water, it became at least clean and tiny again.
