Since it is the end of the world, Commander, please obey.

Bian Shi was wearing a black windbreaker and a baseball cap, with the collar pulled up to cover his mouth and nose.

The wind and sand outside were so strong that they blocked his vision. Bian Shi could only look at the navigation on the smart computer and grope his way forward.

In fact, he hadn't decided where to go, but he knew that he could no longer stay in that villa, living a fake life there, pretending to be calm... He was going crazy.

After walking a few steps, I met the patrol inspectors. They were covered in blood and were dragging the corpses of several zombies.

Bian Shi quickly hid and waited for the inspectors to leave.

"Hey, what's going on with those mutant creatures today? The fish can come ashore?" One of the inspectors shuddered as he spoke.

"Haha, the fish has legs, can't it go ashore?"

"In today's world, what can't happen? Every day we have to patrol, fight zombies, and keep residents safe... Now, there's another thing: fighting mutant fish."

"Hahaha, you know what, I really want to go see those mutated fish. I heard that they also have glands."

"Shh..."

They had already walked away, and Bian Shi couldn't hear what they were saying, but his heart was already overwhelmed with emotions.

"Mutated fish, glands..." Bian Shi pulled his collar to cover half of his face, and there was a bit of coldness in the exposed eyes.

"Could it be a mutant of the Scale Man?" Bian Shi quickly disappeared in the yellow sand.

"Can't wait any longer."

...........

In the incinerator in City C, Shen Aoran lit a cigarette for herself. The smoke was thick, and she narrowed her eyes and handed over a cigarette.

"Want one?"

Seeing that Jiang Zhi had no reaction, Shen Aoran smiled and said, "It's a very good painkiller, much better than those antibiotics."

Jiang Zhi's right hand moved, and blood dripped down.

Taking the cigarette, Shen Aoran lit it for him again.

She raised her hand to wipe the blood off her face, then looked at Jiang Zhi again.

"Your old injuries haven't healed yet and you've got new ones. You're really asking for death."

Jiang Zhi blew out a smoke ring, leaned on the railing, and looked at the blazing fire in the incinerator with a calm expression. "I don't want to live, but I can't die either."

"Tsk, I think you're almost there. If you keep wasting your time like this, you'll die young."

"It doesn't matter." Jiang Zhi quickly finished a cigarette, reached into his pocket and lit another one for himself.

"You saw this mutated creature. It has glands on its body. It's very strange." Jiang Zhi said.

When talking about business, Shen Aoran's attitude became serious. "I sent people to compare, but they didn't find the corresponding gland data in the gene bank. It shouldn't be like this."

Among humans, only alpha and omega glands have differentiated. Superpowers are obtained based on glandular differentiation. The alliance's system clearly records everyone's identity data.

The glands on these mutated creatures cannot be detected at all. What went wrong?

There was a cloud of fireworks ash at Jiang Zhi's feet. He smoked several cigarettes in a row, and when he reached out his hand, he was burned by Shen Aoran's fire.

"hiss--"

Shen Aoran stared at him unkindly, "Are you crazy? Addicted? Just smoke two."

The fire in the incinerator stopped, the furnace door opened, and a pungent smell came out. Shen Aoran coughed twice and cursed, "Where did this come from? It still smells so bad after burning."

Jiang Zhi suddenly asked, "When will the inspectors sent to the North Ocean return?"

"..." Shen Aoran frowned. "The general wanted to open a base in the North Ocean, so he sent several groups of inspectors there. They are short-staffed, so they probably won't be back for a while."

Jiang Zhi glanced at the intelligent computer, swiped out the display screen and showed it to Shen Aoran.

"This is the result of Yue Yinhuang's latest investigation."

Shen Aoran glanced at him. He didn't expect that he hadn't seen Yue Yinhuang for so long. It turned out that he had been transferred to do other tasks.

"According to the data from the external system, Wanqi Kuangyue seems to be quite obedient. Does this mean that he can get support from the external system?"

"There are many external factions, and the situation is complicated. Humanity hasn't explored it enough, yet Yue Yinhuang so confidently claims to have the support of Wanqi Kuangyue. Do you believe it?"

Shen Aoran leaned on the railing and said, "Yue Yinhuang is your right-hand man. She has been with you for so many years. It's not an exaggeration to say that she is your only confidant. You don't even believe what she says?"

Although Jiang Zhi intends to train Chuanmu, Shanyan and others, Yue Yinhuang has followed him for so many years, has outstanding abilities, has never failed in anything, and is quite prestigious in the alliance. Can't he trust him now?

Another batch of zombie corpses were brought in and thrown into the incinerator. Jiang Zhi's eyes darkened slightly, and he said to Shen Aoran, "I suspect Yue Yinhuang, Chang Zhen, Chang Yuansheng, Mu Jingzhi... Jiang Xiao."

As he said name after name, Shen Aoran's expression became more and more ugly.

Jiang Zhi looked at her calmly, "They all have dealings with the Seventh Star. In other words, they all have deals with the Scaled People."

Shen Aoran's throat was dry and he spoke with difficulty, "Jiang Zhi, do you know what you are saying?"

"I'm clear-headed now." Jiang Zhi glanced at the intelligent computer and prepared to leave. "Shen Aoran, the focus right now isn't just on the front lines. Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. I'll send you a document later."

"This secret operation concerns the survival of mankind, Lieutenant Colonel Shen Aoran." After Jiang Zhi finished speaking, he looked at Shen Aoran deeply and then strode away.

Shen Aoran froze in place, brainstorming for more than ten minutes without recovering from his shock.

The door of the incinerator was opened and the pungent smell came again. Shen Aoran took a few deep breaths and quickly called home.

"Hey, Dad, don't use family rules on Xiaofan. We can't afford to be short of people anymore."

......

At the Shen residence, Gong Qian hung up the phone with a puzzled look on his face.

"What's the matter?" Shen Youhe put down the teacup.

"Aoran called and told us not to use family discipline on Xiaofan anymore." Gong Qian paused, "Then don't go to the basement to beat him up after dinner."

Shen Youhe put down his teacup with a thud, his red eyes flashing with anger, "I'll skin that kid alive..."

"You should take a break too. It's so tiring to work every day." Gong Qian leaned over and massaged Shen Youhe's shoulders. "Go to bed early after dinner today. There's a parliament meeting tomorrow, and we have to fly to the fourth planet the day after tomorrow."

Hearing this, Shen Youhe's expression relaxed. He reached out and squeezed Gong Qian's hand. "Then I'll listen to you. Let that bastard go first. Don't give him any food while I'm away on business. Starve him for a few meals, and don't give him mercy even if he begs for mercy."

Gong Qian nodded with a smile, "Okay, I'll do as you say."

Just then, the smart butler came to serve food, and Gong Qian took Shen Youhe to the restaurant, just missing the message that popped up from the security system of Shen's house.

Bian Shi stood under the high wall and was blown by the cold wind for a long time. His black windbreaker was blown yellow. He shook his hair, glanced at the mobile camera above, and bit his lip.

"Damn, this place is too well protected. It's even harder to get into than Jiang Zhi's villa." Bian Shi paced back and forth.

It was already five o'clock in the afternoon, and it would be dark soon. He had crossed most of the city and finally found this place just to see Shen Xiaofan.

I didn't expect to be stuck outside the door for so long.

It would probably be possible to just knock on the door and go in, but Bian Shi was unsure.

Shen Xiaofan was a scapegoat, so how could he possibly meet a criminal? Furthermore, this was the Shen residence, and there were former national protectors inside. If it was discovered that his motives were not pure, would he be killed immediately?

Bian Shi looked at his frail body and shook his head. "Although water can put out a fire, it can't hold up against a large fire with little water."

The mobile camera in the sky had circled around Bian Shi several times. Seeing that Bian Shi had not moved, it could only wait quietly.

A cloud of yellow sand rolled in from the distance, and Bian Shi swallowed a mouthful of dirt. He used his supernatural power to rinse his mouth and finally made up his mind.

Bian Shi put on protective gloves, took a few steps back, rushed forward, stepped on the high wall, and climbed up bit by bit.

The mobile camera was stunned and quickly sent a message to its owner.

Gong Qian, who was serving dishes, was stunned when he saw the message from the intelligent computer. "Hey, isn't this the person I'm going to marry? What is this kid doing?"

Are you here to find Shen Xiaofan?

After thinking about it, Gong Qian gave him the authority and did not let the security system stop him.

Shen Youhe waited in the kitchen for a while but didn't see Gong Qian, so he called out, "Wife, come and help."

"Coming, coming." Gong Qian wiped his hands and hurried over.
