Across Deep Space: Four Men and a Play

Xiao Meng looked at the chocolate candy in front of her, thought about it, and reluctantly accepted it.

Forget it, since he didn't mean it.

It was not easy for her to see this man from the memory of her main consciousness.

His childhood experiences made him cold and withdrawn, and he refused to get close to anyone. After years of being single, he really couldn't adapt to having someone around him.

"Don't do it again!" The little paw took the candy.

"it is good."

"Since you want to be my partner, you must remember me!"

"Don't ignore me, don't abandon me!" Xiao Meng thought about it and made a small request, and said something harsh, "Otherwise, I will take away all your candies!"

"And your Jasmine!"

This was the most threatening thing she could think of.

Li Shen looked at her with amusement, and suddenly felt that she was not as dangerous as he had imagined, but her face remained calm and no emotion could be seen.

"understood."

After that, Li Shen stopped talking nonsense, told her to hold on to the car body, and then started the car and flew out.

Although the car is an electric motorcycle, it is very fast.

He drove to several areas he frequently visited, including some city ruins where supernatural energy was active.

In fact, this was also Lincheng, but it was completely destroyed after the chaos came. Coupled with a large number of stray bodies, all the survivors had to retreat to the center of the city and build walls to separate the areas.

Naturally, this area also became outside the city.

After visiting several places, Li Shen did not find any wandering bodies or abnormal energy fluctuations. He took out a somewhat old map and thought about a new destination.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Meng stretched her head to look curiously.

Wasn't he here to kill strays? Why was he here looking at a map?

"Wandering bodies like to appear in places where strange energy gathers." Li Shen said lightly as he looked at the blue and red dots on the map.

The red area is the area where the supernatural energy is highly active.

Originally, there was equipment that could track and detect stray objects, but when those people withdrew, they also took away the data background. Only an empty shell of the equipment was left, so naturally it was unable to detect and track stray objects.

If you want to activate the equipment again, you must accept the employment cooperation agreement with those in the Safe City, otherwise you will not be given access to this high-end technology equipment.

However, they may not know that high-level evol users can clearly sense the activity level of supernatural energy.

These marks on the map were all made by Li Shen himself after running over and over again.

He had no use for those detectors.

Li Shen crossed out the red punctuation marks in several areas and then drew green punctuation marks.

He has checked these places several times and no stray bodies have appeared. Although the supernatural energy is still active, it is not as intense.

It seems these places no longer attract stray bodies.

After the changes were completed, Li Shen randomly selected a few places on the map before folding it up and continuing his journey.

Sure enough, the location chosen by Li Shenxin was very accurate, because he could feel the breath of danger as soon as he approached Xiao Meng.

Looking at the remaining buildings on the ground, this place should have been a pedestrian street in the past, with many door signs and signs scattered on the ground.

"Be careful." Li Shen said to Xiao Meng who jumped out of the car.

Although the last incident with the mutant made Li Shen realize that this little girl might have some problems of her own, her petite appearance was still very deceptive.

Li Shen couldn't help but remind him to be careful.

"I know~" Xiao Meng jumped around in the ruins nonchalantly.

Seeing this, Li Shen stopped talking, condensed ice crystals in his hands, and walked in a direction according to Evol's sensing.

Soon, I saw a stray figure that looked like rubble wandering aimlessly at the edge of a broken wall.

"Is there only one gravel wandering body?" Li Shen did not act rashly. This kind of wandering body likes to move in groups, at least three of them, but there is only one here, which seems a little strange.

After Li Shen's patient exploration, he finally saw the other two. They were standing in a half-built house, gnawing on something with their heads down.

Li Shen approached carefully, and his expression instantly turned cold when he saw what it was.

That's a human arm!

It seems that its owner was out and had no time to return, so he was killed by these two stray creatures.

Li Shen didn't hesitate and immediately used a giant ice cone to get rid of them, watching the wandering body roar and disappear in the dust of the painting.

He turned around and took Xiao Meng, who was near the motorcycle, with him, and began to clean up the several red dot areas he had designated.

In the next few days, Xiao Meng quietly followed Li Shen to clean up the stray bodies outside the city.

Occasionally I would go out and wander the streets of the city at night.

Occasionally, we would encounter some stray bodies wandering around the city, but of course their fate was to be dealt with by Li Shen.

That day, after she and Li Shen dealt with several high-level wandering bodies wandering outside the city, she jumped onto his shoulders very naturally.

During this period of time, they have developed a slight "understanding".

At least Li Shen was aware that he would pick her up after the battle.

"Four more stray bodies are coming 500 meters to the left." She told Li Shen what she had sensed.

"Yeah." Li Shen walked in the direction she pointed.

Because she could sense everything within a certain range, Li Shen asked her to help sense the wandering bodies.

He was responsible for hunting stray bodies, and for a time his efficiency was several times higher than before.

At least he no longer had to wander aimlessly outside the city and encounter stray bodies.

Following her 'navigation', Li Shen quickly found the stray bodies.

"Wait for me here." He placed the cat on his shoulder on a nearby bush.

This little guy is very mysophobic.

"Ok."

She squatted obediently on the tree branch and watched Li Shen approach the stray bodies with nimble skills and attack them.

Just when he was about to use his ice blade to kill the seriously injured stray bodies, a figure quickly approached the stray bodies and killed them before Li Shen.

The little white tiger was instantly furious when he saw this scene.

Come again? !

This is the second time!

Li Shen withdrew his hand as he watched the wandering figure in front of him turn into dark blue ash and dissipate.

"Mr. Li, what a coincidence." The man who stood firmly smiled and greeted the silent Li Shen.

"..."

Li Shen ignored him, turned around silently, picked up the little white tiger and left.

"It's him again, Li Shen. Don't you have a temper?" The little white tiger looked at the man with a crew cut who had intercepted him through his neck and was very angry.

"do not worry about it."

Just kill the stray bodies.

The little white tiger couldn't help rolling his eyes when he saw his indifferent look. This guy.

It's been intercepted several times.

"He's deliberately going against you."

Little White Tiger was impressed by this man because he had kidnapped her!

Some time ago, because she had another mouth to feed at home, the food Li Shen had stored was consumed much faster. That day, he left her at home and went out to buy supplies.

But she didn't follow because she was very sleepy.

Not long after, she was woken up by a knock on the door.

She thought it was Li Shen, so she jumped onto the door lock and opened it skillfully, but as soon as she opened the door, someone grabbed her by the back of the neck.

Her eyes blurred. Before she could react, she had been taken far away from Li Shen's home.

They dumped her in a dirty cage.

It was placed casually in a corner of the house where they lived.

Perhaps because she was a harmless kitten, they didn't take her seriously and didn't avoid her when talking to her.

From what she heard from their conversation, she roughly understood that these people were here to "invite" Li Shen.

But Li Shen’s repeated rejections seemed to make them unhappy.

This time he came to Li Shen's house hoping to have a good talk with him by offering him generous conditions, but he didn't expect that instead of seeing him, Li Shen caught the kitten that he liked very much recently.

"I don't know what the captain is thinking. That guy is so withdrawn and weird. Isn't he just stronger in Evol? Why does he have to win him over?"

The thinnest man among the group sat on the sofa and took a big gulp of beer.

Even though it's expired, it's still pretty rare.

"Who knows, but that person is indeed very strong." Another man continued.

"The boss probably values his abilities."

It’s really nice to have a strong teammate in this hellish world.

"So what if he's interested? His arrogant attitude is really infuriating."

They went to invite him several times to show their goodwill, but he refused with a look of disdain. If the boss had not insisted that they come again to show their sincerity, they would not have gone to his house.

However, no one was seen, but a kitten was caught.

Thinking of this, both men turned to look at the little guy who was trapped in the cage in the corner.

"That person looked indifferent, but I didn't expect he actually liked to keep pets."

"Besides, it's quite unusual to find a little fellow like this to raise in this world."

In a world filled with strange energies, not only humans will mutate, but animals will too. Moreover, after the chaos, most animals have disappeared. Even if you encounter them, they will be ferocious beasts that are extremely aggressive towards humans.

This soft, harmless animal is rare to come across.

"Tell me, how much would this cat be worth if we sold it to Safe City?" The skinny man looked at the little white tiger with greedy eyes.

The other man raised his eyelids and said calmly, "It's not like there aren't any safe cities. This little guy is that person's favorite pet. If you dare to sell it, he might kill you."

They captured this little girl because they knew how important she was to the man. During this time, they also saw the cold-faced man doting on the kitten and even buying snacks for her, which were things that ordinary people could not afford.

He fed it to his pets.

It can be seen how much he likes this little guy.

Since I can't invite this man properly, I have to use some tricks.

However, when they passed the message to that person, they said that they came to visit and encountered the little guy who escaped after opening the door, so they kindly helped to take it in and asked him to come and pick up the cat.

Their boss is also on the way back.

"Alright, alright, I'm just saying that." The skinny man waved his hand unhappily. "Pack up, the people will be here soon."

The two of them tidied up the messy room.

"Where's the cat?" A man with a crew cut and wearing worn combat uniform walked in first.

"There, Boss."

The skinny monkey pointed to the cage next to the miscellaneous items in the corner and said.

The man with a crew cut looked over and saw a snow-white kitten with beautiful silver patterns sitting in the middle of a rusty cage. Even though it was in a shabby cage, it still couldn't hide its nobility and elegance.

The buzz cut man frowned and said, "Didn't I tell you to hire someone? Why did you catch the cat?"

What on earth are these two guys doing?

"Boss, we went to visit him, but the cat opened the door and came out as soon as we knocked. We tried to have a good talk with him several times, but he always refused with a cold face..."

Catch the cat so that he can listen to them properly.

The skinny monkey touched the back of his head guiltily before he finished speaking.

Upon hearing this, the buzz cut man angrily shouted, "Stupid!"

He didn't even dare to offend the ice-type evolver obviously, but they offended him directly to death.

Two idiots.

But there's no point in saying this now.

"Have you informed him?"

The skinny monkey and his companion glanced at each other and guessed that they might have done something wrong, so they quickly lowered their heads and replied, "We have notified them."

The buzz cut man sighed helplessly, "Wait."

So they sat on the sofa waiting for Li Shen to come.

A few minutes later, the man with the crew cut looked at the frost condensed on his water cup and realized that someone had arrived.

"Go and open the door."

The other two also saw it and immediately stood up to open the door.

Sure enough, Li Shen was standing at the door with a cold face, and his yellow-green eyes were so intense that they could freeze someone to death.

"Give her back to me."

Seeing this, the crew cut man stepped forward and said, "Mr. Li, don't be angry. Come in and have a drink of water first."

As he said this, he raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation.

Li Shen walked in and saw the little white tiger locked in a cage at a glance. She was looking at him pitifully.

Those eyes that were full of arrogance were now sparkling.

Li Shen's already furrowed brows tightened even more. The crew-haired man also noticed his gaze and quickly said, "What a good thing you did! Why put her in a cage!"

"Go open the cage!"

The skinny monkey stepped forward and opened the cage.

In an instant, a white figure flashed by.

The little white tiger flew to Li Shen's side, and in a few seconds she hooked onto his clothes and climbed onto his chest. Because there were outsiders around, she couldn't speak out, so she could only whimper a few times to express how wronged she was.

Li Shen's body stiffened for a moment, then he touched her hairy back soothingly for a while before holding her armpits with both hands and observing her to make sure that she was not injured, just her hair was a little messy, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't mind me, Mr. Li. Some of my men were ignorant and caught the cat as soon as they saw it run out."

"I've taught them a lesson."

The man with a crew cut laughed at the right moment.

"Really?" Unfortunately, Li Shen didn't buy his account and just asked back coldly.

"Mr. Li, this is my fault. I didn't explain it clearly to them. How about I give you a box of chocolate energy bars as compensation?"

"This is a good thing that can't be found in the outside world."

The man with a crew cut motioned to the skinny monkey to bring over a small cardboard box. Inside, there were hundreds of neatly packed energy bars. They looked fresh and probably hadn't expired yet.

They thought Li Shen would be attracted to this thing. After all, they had heard before that this person loved chocolate and sweets very much.

Unexpectedly, Li Shen just glanced at him calmly and said, "I won't join you."

He knew that they went to so much trouble to find him just to recruit him into their team, but unfortunately, he was not interested.

Seeing Li Shen's stubborn attitude, the man with the crew cut also lost his patience.

It’s time to invite Zhuge Liang to visit me three times.
