MTL - Please Have a Cup of Green Tea-Chapter 156 When Miss Green Tea became the control group of Lianzong (50)
In the room covered with ice, only the large temperature-controlling machines around were faintly glowing blue light.
They are quite old models, and still work tirelessly as the most important refrigeration system to maintain the Ark's constant temperature.
Bi Ming squatted on the ground, with her fingers on Tang's sturdy but cold chest, across a thin shirt that had already condensed with frost, all kinds of strange emotions in her heart were going back and forth.
She has always been cold-blooded, but at this moment, although she was startled by the heartbeat of the other party, her reason quickly flooded into her brain.
No matter how Christian disabled Tang, she had watched the S-class sentry's battle video on the star network. How could a mere lover star be enough for them to toss?
According to Chris, he only found the underwater city and Noah's Ark under the abyss yesterday. How could he kill Tang, who had won the Mecha Singles Championship and was extremely physically fit, in just a few hours?
And if the two S-rank sentinels really fight, Phoenix and the others who are also in the capital of the sea will not even notice the slightest movement, which is really unreasonable.
Also, why is the door of such an important refrigeration room open? And as soon as I came in, I locked it...
There were too many doubts, and the suspicion in Bi Ming's heart became stronger and stronger. The strength in his hands could not help but heavier, and his fingernails pinched on his skin—
The flax-haired boy suddenly groaned.
Bi Ming wanted to laugh a little in her heart, but there was something tricky, so she wasn't going to pretend.
She thought about it for a while, and deliberately got closer to his pale face and tried to test in his ear: "It's strange... How can you breathe without a heartbeat?"
There was a moment of silence in the air.
In the next second, naughty dimples appeared on his lips, and the light coffee-colored pupils that had been closed also reopened, reflecting Bi Ming's approaching face, and then raised his hand to hold her over his face. the hand above.
"Maybe it's because I don't want to die when I see you..."
This sound is obviously much more stable than the previous Qi Ruoyu.
The eldest lady thought to herself: she was almost fooled just now.
She wanted to break free of his hand, but found that the other party was a little too strong, so she couldn't help biting her lip: "Let go...you liar!" She raised her other hand directly, trying to throw it towards his face—
"Clap", he didn't slap his hand, and he grabbed his wrist.
In a flash of light and flint, Tang chuckled lightly, and with a gentle tug, took her whole body down.
Before the girl could control her body, she lost her balance and slammed into the opponent's icy body.
The collision of limbs is less painful than scratching for Tang, who has the attributes of steel and iron.
And the eldest lady who was being tricked jumped up in anger, as if she was ashamed of her soft-heartedness and trust just now, she struggled and scolded him: "You're actually all right, right? Let me go..."
"Stop, stop, don't be angry," Tang put her hands behind her waist and pressed her long legs, restraining the girl's leg movement that wanted to attack her groin, and smiled at her, "You are the first Come to disturb me, I can scare you too much, right?"
The blond girl couldn't move, she could only stare at him bitterly: "Shameless liar! It's a shame I wanted to collect your corpse just now..."
"Didn't I say it, I'm not dead yet," Tang innocently curled his lips, "You just start touching me on your own, sigh, I'm embarrassed for being so enthusiastic..."
During the conversation, the distance between the two was extremely close, and their breathing was also close at hand.
The juvenile's lips were covered with a layer of frost, and when he exhaled, it was cold, and it seemed that he had spent a long time in this freezer.
"You're cold, let go!" She tried to struggle, but found that the other's arm was like an iron hoop, and the whole body was hard and cold, no different from ice cubes. "Psychopath, what are you...what do you want?"
"Don't move..." Tang is now very glad that his whole body is frozen by ice, otherwise he will definitely get angry with Bi Ming's twisting method, "You listen to me first and finish the current situation, otherwise I am afraid that you will go crazy. ."
The eldest lady gritted her teeth helplessly: "You're crazy...Speak up!"
"This is the core refrigeration room of the Ark. It is responsible for the cooling system of the engine. Every four hours, the temperature will drop from zero to minus one hundred and fifty degrees, and then return to zero in three hours." Tang finally stopped smiling, Instead, his tone was a little low, "You should understand what this means, right?"
Bi Ming shuddered instantly, if she couldn't get out, she would freeze to death here soon.
"But, but you... are you okay?"
The flax-haired boy chuckled helplessly: "You touch my heart again now."
Bi Ming finally waited for him to let go. The thought of wanting to slap him was replaced by the desire to survive. She put her finger on his chest again, and she really felt that the bottom was still quiet, like a dead person.
"This..." She bit her lip, and a few guesses flashed through her mind, "What's going on?"
"Have you heard of hypothermia? In extremely cold conditions, human cells stop their activities and reach a state of pseudo-death. In order to avoid being frozen to death, I took this special drug that enters a dormant state." Tang sighed, Explain to her, "I followed Chris here, only to know that this ark was under his control, and then he was gassed, and he was thrown here to fend for himself."
"He didn't kill you?" Bi Ming didn't think that the black-bellied fox was a soft-hearted person.
"It should be to exchange me for the reward money, after all, the government's reward is quite high." Speaking of which, the handsome young man winked at her with some grievances, "It may also be to freeze me to death, after all, I am being Locked in this whole night, if not for the dormancy potion prepared in advance, it must have become a pile of ice corpses..."
The eldest sneered: "It deserves it." She said, while he was not paying attention, she pinched his ear decisively, "Also, get me up quickly!"
"Hey, it hurts..." Tang begged for mercy, but there was a bit of a mischievous smile on the corners of his eyes and brows, "Tstedi, I didn't expect you to be so rude, you don't look like those noble ladies at all... If you hadn't kicked me just now , I have already escaped."
"You have to deal with people like you like this," Bi Ming felt that he had loosened his shackles, and immediately staggered to his feet, patted the ice **** on his body, "I kicked you to kill the people—"
Saying that, she suddenly stopped.
I seem to have missed something...
After a while, Bi Ming looked down at him hesitantly: "...What did you mean when you said you almost went out?"
In the sight of the girl's cramped eyes, Tang propped up half of his body, sat up, and picked up his black coat that she had stepped on a few times, and patted the frost on it.
"Actually, before you came in, I just cracked the random password for the door. It took twelve hours. Then you came in and closed the door. Now it will take me at least six hours to crack it again."
Having said that, the young man didn't seem angry, and he made a "six" gesture to her, and shook it playfully.
"You sabotaged my plan. In revenge, is it normal for you to say that I scare you?"
"It's arrogant." Miss Xingmei glared angrily, "It's obvious that you are shameless... I could have stayed in the rest cabin and slept comfortably."
At this time, Bi Ming, who was seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, finally felt that if he knew earlier, he would let the robots outside capture him back.
Now stay here and wait for minus one hundred and fifty degrees to freeze yourself to death?
Tang was not in a hurry, and nodded with a smile: "Okay, since that's the case, then you can wait for me to unlock the code in six hours and send your body out."
The eldest lady stared at him angrily and helplessly, completely choked.
After a while, the air was getting colder and colder. She touched her arms and felt that there was no difference between wearing a thin coat and not wearing it, so she could only turn her eyes to the black padded jacket on Tang's hand: "cough...you Why did you bring this stuff?"
Tang patted the black jacket, raised his head to look at her, and replied with a smile: "I always do things safely and be prepared."
"Oh." The blonde girl pursed her lips, her blue eyes lowered, not knowing what she was thinking.
The young man seemed to see through her timid thoughts that were ashamed to say: "Little bird..."
"Shut up, don't call me a nickname!" The eldest lady was upset and her tone became very bad, but when she looked up, she was stunned by the long jacket handed in front of her.
"Stop teasing you, take it," Tang grinned and tossed the coat, "I don't want to really go out with a lump of ice."
The room temperature is getting colder and colder, Bi Ming catches a glimpse of the thermometer in the room, which shows the style of -7°C, which makes her feel colder.
"This, does this work? When it's minus 150 degrees, we'll all turn into popsicles, right?" The eldest lady was so cold that she started stomping her feet, and she didn't forget to be hard.
"How much lack of common sense do you nobles have?" The young man sneered, sitting cross-legged, and threw the cotton-padded jacket into her arms, "This is a common compressed cotton-padded jacket in many border galaxies in the Federation, it can be compressed into a small circle before it is opened. The ball, which expands automatically when opened, also has a constant temperature function.
After he finished speaking, he tapped his hand suddenly, as if remembering something: "By the way, it's like the robe you wore that night when we went to see the stars, but the price is about a thousand dollars for your robe. One-half of it."
It was the first time for the eldest lady to get such cheap clothes, and a hint of disgust appeared on her little face: "No wonder it's so ugly."
"I don't mind if you insist on your taste, give it back to me." Tang's voice was obviously playful.
"Forget it, it's not that ugly if you look closely," the blonde girl blushed after being provoked so much. She wasn't an idiot, so she naturally showed the other party's kindness, "I'll use it reluctantly... Thank you."
She said the last two words very quietly.
But how could the smart sentinel not hear it?
The young man chuckled, and then heard the hesitant voice of the eldest lady—
"By the way, Tang, you... don't you use this?"
"Me? Do you want to share it with me?" He spread his hands expectantly, showing a gesture of hugging. "Although the padded jacket is not big, we can still squeeze it."
Bi Mingpi smiled and said, "Forget it." Let this person freeze to death.
…
The refrigeration system continued to operate, and the temperature in the room was still gradually dropping. Bi Ming wrapped herself in that padded jacket and crouched in the corner where the wind could not blow, staring at the man who was wearing only a brown vest and a white bottom shirt. teenager.
The machine's faint blue light cast on his back, making him look like an ice cube shrouded in frost.
This guy used the dormancy potion, and now all the functions of the body are close to the state of rest, but... such a low temperature, even if it is reinforced and iron bones, it will be cold, right?
The girl pondered for a moment, and tried to quietly stretch her fingers out of the warm padded jacket, only to feel as if she had been pierced by countless needles, producing a biting chill.
She immediately curled up her fingers, rubbing the palms of her fingers that seemed to freeze, thinking that the temperature might have dropped below minus fifty degrees.
The communicator was useless, and the location of the spiritual beast was erased by Chris. She couldn't think of a better way to get out except waiting for Tang to figure out the next random password.
She couldn't help sighing, the robots who were chasing her were too stupid... They didn't even think of a way to open this place and "catch" her back.
What Bi Ming didn't know was that those AI robots didn't want to come in, but this "powerhouse" responsible for regulating the temperature of the Ark's engines could only enter with Christian's permission.
But Christian was at a critical juncture in researching the genetic stock solution at this time. He even contacted the behind-the-scenes team for a meeting to discuss the design of the genetic weapon. He is currently locking himself in the laboratory and will not come out for a few hours.
It's not that he doesn't pay attention to Bi Ming, but he just thinks that he has arranged it properly. Under the double blockade of multiple robots and secret rooms, the chance of the girl having an accident is close to zero.
It can only be said that Bi Ming's character design is well shaped, and the lazy and weak vase image has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Not only Christian, in fact, even the warm-hearted star thief in the weekdays also thinks so.
For Tang, the appearance of Bi Ming was purely accidental, but it was not a big problem.
His physique is inherently affected by the characteristics of spiritual beasts. He is resistant to cold and heat, and can be smelted into steel. He can also adapt well to ultra-low temperatures above absolute zero. In addition, the dormancy potion can help him save his physical energy, and he can live without wearing that cotton jacket.
It's just that without the padded jacket, although he won't die, he certainly won't feel comfortable.
As long as there is another person in front of him, the cold-blooded and selfish star thief will not be so "selfless". After all, he has disturbed his plan. Isn't he deserved to be frozen to death?
The open door was the "bait" he used to trick Christian into coming.
However, as soon as Bi Ming entered the door, he smelled the aroma that made him miss him, and the tense emotions all dissipated in an instant.
Now that the door was locked again, he simply pretended to be a dying person to tease her. Although he didn't see her cry, the emotional touch on his chest was not fake.
Tang knows that his little bird is kind and sincere. Although he has always been cold-hearted towards him, he is deeply sorry for him at this moment. She cares about him. This discovery made him unable to help but feel happy.
As a selfish and predatory star thief, once Tang was tempted, he subconsciously wanted to get close to her. Seeing the black cotton jacket wrapped around her, as if he was holding her, he was instantly satisfied and did not feel the whole body. The cold wind was so cold.
Time continued to pass, the room temperature was already as low as minus tens of degrees, and there were more and more ice **** on Tang's body, almost covering him.
He patted the ice layer on his arm, the joints were frozen stiff, but fortunately, when the temperature rose, he could recover again, but the thoughts in his mind became obviously slow and dull.
The characteristics of the griffin give him a strong physique that is invulnerable to heat and cold, but his perception is still normal, and he can also experience what ordinary people can feel.
With his eyes half closed, he was groggy in the extreme cold, and the calculation of the password in his mind was getting slower and slower...
Until a voice suddenly sounded beside him: "Tang!"
"Wake up, Tang..." It sounded like a voice from outside the sky, like the snow that fell rustling when I was young, clean and clear, but with a hint of panic, "Don't fall asleep... I'll divide this with you, okay? …I am afraid…"
The boy's closed eyelids finally opened with difficulty, revealing some dazed honey eyes: "Special..." His voice was so hoarse that there was almost no sound.
The freezing temperature froze the water in his throat.
The eldest lady lifted off the padded jacket on her body and shivered, but she still firmly covered half of the padded jacket over the person who was about to turn into an ice lump next to her.
As soon as her delicate fingers were exposed to the cold air, they were instantly scratched red, and the face that came out from under the clothes was flushed red, and it was also an unnatural red from freezing.
Tang looked at her who was close at hand, opened his mouth, and felt a sudden warmth on his body: "No need..." It's just that the voices of these two words were frozen in the throat and could not be pronounced.
Seeing that the other party was speechless, Bi Ming still moved a bit. As a selfish green tea, she still has principles to abide by. She can't guarantee that Tang will die in such extreme cold, even if the other party will die. It's an S-Class Sentinel.
She couldn't comfortably hide her head and body in a warm padded jacket, while the person who gave her clothes slowly turned into an ice sculpture.
It was too cold on Tang's body, but in order to cover him in the padded jacket, the girl could only bite her chapped lips, put her hand on his arm, and stretched out the jacket, trying to put him on the edge. wrapped in.
I can only be fortunate that this padded jacket is large enough, even if it is so tossed, it can barely cover the backs of the two, but the part that cannot be closed is filled with cold wind, and the poor lady can only endure it.
Under the constant enthusiasm of the cotton-padded jacket, the pupils of the boy's eyes widened slightly, and his originally drowsy consciousness gradually became clear.
He could clearly feel the girl's warm arm skin touching him, trembling with the cold, but he still didn't leave.
Such warmth... just like many years ago, on the white snow, the dying mother held his hand tremblingly and put the chocolate in his palm.
It's such a cold day, but it's so warm... I really want to hold that hand forever...
Tang couldn't help but look at her sideways, he couldn't see anything clearly in the darkness, but her soft breath and scent made him feel the beauty that he had not seen for a long time—
Willing to let him live in the beauty of this world.
A few minutes later, the huge thermal jacket was finally fully utilized.
In the dark, the eldest lady grabbed the arms that were completely wrapped around her waist and pressed her back against each other's chest and waist. She only felt that she had never done such a shameful and dissolute posture, but she couldn't find a better way. Get out of the situation.
The teenager behind him put his head on her shoulders and hugged her from behind a little bit. The two of them leaned against each other, wrapped in a thick padded jacket, looking like a couple of warm lovers.
However, at this time, Tang was less frivolous than he used to be. Although his hug was tight, he didn't have any distractions. When he spoke, his tone was pious and serious:
"Little bird... I'm sorry."
"Huh?" The apology was so sincere that Bi Ming, who was in the audience, was a little caught off guard, "What do you mean?"
"I always lie to you, sorry."
"It's good if you know." Thinking of today's shock, the eldest lady couldn't help pinching her hand around her waist, "Do you know that sometimes you are really annoying?"
"I won't lie to you in the future, um..." As the temperature inside the jacket rose, the boy's voice became a little sticky, "I will become good, can you also look at me, don't look in your eyes The one with the red hair?"
Bi Ming was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Tang to confess on the spot and mentioned Phoenix.
"I…"
"Little bird, I hate him, and people like them can always get the most precious things in the world without any effort." The young man said this very clearly and calmly, "These high-ranking lords, squeeze It is extremely disgusting to have done the flesh and blood of countless people, but in turn pretends to give the people great kindness."
The eldest lady was a little dissatisfied: "Fini is not..."
"he is."
"You-I don't want to quarrel with you. If you look down on the nobles, I'm sorry, I'm also one of them." The girl turned back, but felt her earlobe bumped against the other's lips, and suddenly froze.
Tang just chuckled, pursed the corners of his lips, and continued: "You are not the same, Testai, I have eyes. But you must think that I am wronging your bamboo horse... So, I will tell you a liar first. story."
Bi Ming heard his low, hoarse voice, so gentle, like a bird's feathers falling from the sky—
"Once upon a time... about twenty years ago, a little boy was born to a commoner family of an unnamed mining star."
"That ore star is rich in nickel crystals, but when the machine is refining nickel crystals, a lot of waste gas will be produced. This waste gas will lead to the deterioration of the environment and water sources, and there are often respiratory diseases of residents, so the boy's father and other local people formed a joint alliance. Protest and sue the local government for wrongdoing."
"When the little boy was three years old, he was taken by his mother to his father's funeral. Everyone was telling him: because his father accidentally entered the mining area and was crushed to death by the machine inside."
"The little boy didn't know what a 'lie' was at that time, so he believed it, although he didn't understand why his mother kept crying all day long. At the same time, the joint protest meeting was also disbanded, and the people began to feel that the environment was bad and it was not their own. It's up to you."
"Later, the mining star was acquired by a big chaebol, and the original industrial area was further expanded. They brought a lot of labor robots, so many workers on the mining star lost their jobs. They built an airport and began to transport nickel crystals on a large scale. And brought a lot of expensive and rare goods."
"The government treats the chaebol as a guest, and the rich hold banquets to please them, but the income of the people is getting lower and lower, and the price of commodities is getting higher and higher. The little boy's family has been nothing since his father died. His mother had a respiratory disease and had to take medicine regularly, so the little boy learned to go to the **** dump in the mining area to pick up waste products for money at the age of six.
Hearing this, the eldest interjected ignorantly and asked, "But the nutrient solution is not expensive... You can buy it with the cheapest one-star coin."
The teenager buried on the side of her neck smiled dumbly: "This is the price of the capital star and the central galaxy. In remote areas, one star coin costs 15 star coins, including transportation costs and taxes, and some places will be higher. ."
"It is not the government that controls the price, but the aristocratic businessmen who monopolize the channel."
"Let's get down to business, the first time the little boy learned to lie was when his mother held him in front of the store window and asked him if he wanted to buy snacks. When the little boy was picking up scraps, he once ate a child from the head of the mining area and threw it on the ground and bit him. Half a mouthful of chocolate, it tasted so delicious that he wanted to eat it again. But at that time, he told his mother that he didn't like snacks."
"What a sensible child." Bi Ming couldn't help but praise.
"Well," Tang Xian bent his lips and smiled a little happily, but quickly recovered, "However, when the chaebol discovered a new energy mine with the most advanced detection machine, everything changed. Originally there were only 10 % of residents will be infected with respiratory diseases, but as soon as the new mine opened, this figure soared to 60%, so many local residents wanted to leave, but the outflow of population aroused the vigilance of the government, and soon all star ports were blocked. ."
The eldest lady who has a mine in the family continued to ask: "Why not let them go? Our family is all developing unmanned stars..."
Tang's eyes became cold: "Because people are gone, who will provide the flesh and blood that the upper layers can squeeze? If the mining star becomes an unmanned star, then the power possessed by those big men will also become scattered sand."
"The little boy's mother was afraid that her child would also suffer from the same respiratory disease as herself, so she wanted to smuggle the child to Neighborhood. At that time, the stowaways were called 'fugitives', and the government could send guards to arrest them. , the rich will also offer high rewards for these 'fugitives', and whistleblowers can get rich rewards."
Hearing this, Bi Ming found that Tang had been silent for a long time in the darkness before continuing to speak:
"But the woman who was suffering from respiratory disease, before she died, still decided to send her son out, and she must not wait to die in the mining star, so she did one thing - used all her savings to buy a An expensive smuggling airship ticket."
"It was winter, and my mother was walking on the snow with her ten-year-old boy, when she heard a gunshot in the distance. She knew that the guard was catching someone. She ran with the little boy desperately, but in the end Still without strength, because she was afraid that her son would be caught by those guards, she took out a small knife and directly ended her own life, and then put the knife in her son's hand... Let him report... Her mother is a fugitive. "
"She also stuffed the kid with a piece of chocolate and told him—"
[Don, I'm sorry. 】
The woman's eyes were full of sadness and guilt. She also wanted her child to have a carefree childhood eating chocolate, but she forced him to accept such a nightmare.
[Mom loves you the most. 】
[Tell them...you caught the fleeing mother, okay? 】
The ten-year-old child, clutching the knife dripping with his mother's blood, knelt in the snow, his head blank.
The guard came over and asked him what was going on.
The little boy looked at these government lackeys, his eyes turned red, and the finger hidden behind his back tightly gripped the piece of chocolate in his palm, as if he was about to crush it.
"This is... a fugitive."
"My mother...was a fugitive, and I caught her."
This was the second time he had lied, and the woman on the ground closed her eyes with satisfaction and lost her breath when she heard the childish lie of her son.
The guards looked at the woman on the ground and the little boy in front of them, and let out all kinds of laughter.
"This kid kills his relatives righteously, he is cruel enough, he is a good seedling."
Later, the little boy who got a high report "reward" quickly grew up on the mining star and joined the government's guard army.
Later, a turmoil broke out in the mine star, and the star thief group started the robbery mode.
"You must protect these big men, did you hear that?" The guards were ordered to hold weapons and stand on the last line of defense.
"Yes!" This is the third time the little boy lied.
The war was raging, and the fifteen-year-old boy who mixed into the core guard team held a gun, with the corpses of the guards at his feet, and the airship where the big men were behind him.
"The fat sheep are on it," he smiled at the vicious star thief leader in front of him, revealing his lovely dimples, "This is my vote, take me with you."
Since then, the intelligence department of the star thief has added a genius liar, Tang.
…
"The story is over, here's a message," the flax-haired boy hugged the warm female body in his arms, his tone was very gentle, but the corners of his lips contained a hint of coldness and playfulness, "The aristocratic chaebol who came to develop the mining star back then was punished. Now there is only one heir left."
"His name is... Phoenix."
Those rotten classes who have seized the interests of the people are not ashamed to say that they have brought wealth and happiness to the people.
This is simply the most ridiculous lie in the world.
Politicians, nobles, and ruling classes, who are more skilled than him as an intelligence liar, have told a huge lie to the world.
The author has something to say: As I said at the beginning, Don and Phoenix represent different class interests.
And Tang is not so much a villain as a protagonist of his own destiny. He was originally an honest and kind good boy. If he lived in Fini's environment, he would also know how to get along with the heroine. Appears "rude".
