Flowers Blooming in the Wasteland

Case didn't answer Celeste, but just zoomed in to a close distance, as if someone was crouching next to them with a video camera.

The black rubber boat looked very small in the boundless sea. There were several people sitting crowded together on it. Kars, Li Kailin, and several veterans of the mercenary regiment were there, and the electric motor was buzzing. , pushing the rubber boat forward on the vast sea.

Fu Yunlan looked at the compass solemnly for a while, and looked up at the sea level for a while, while Kars complained beside him: "I really believe your evil, I really don't understand such a smart little genius as Celeste, What is it about you that I fell in love with? I shouldn't follow you out for adventures in a daze. Are you sure you can find the right direction with a small compass? As long as you tilt it a little bit, we might not will float all the way to China—if we haven't died of starvation or thirst before then."

Fu Yunlan didn't bother to talk to him at all, Li Kailin was throwing up while holding onto the side of the boat, Heita tried hard to stand firm on the rubber boat, and the bomber was riding on Heita's neck, looking into the distance with a telescope: "I seem to be I saw the Hawaiian Islands, this time it must not be an illusion, those black lines have been motionless for a long time, definitely not drifting garbage or something."

"This is the fourth time you have said that." The old man who was forcibly arrested to fly the plane said with a sad face and sighed.

"This time it must be true, I guarantee it with my personality!"

In the headquarters building of the Blue Shield Group, He Xiao frowned slightly: "This is really... interesting."

Seeing the strong wind and waves on the sea and the small hovercraft swaying in the waves, Celeste became a little anxious: "Hurry up and send someone to pick them up."

"Don't worry." He Xiao said reassuringly, "Case, tell Qin Feng to pick them up, and make sure everyone is safe."

"Understood." Case responded briefly.

He Xiao took Celeste to his office first to wait. The beautiful female secretary brought the peeled fruit, but Celeste didn't touch it, just stood in front of the French window and looked out.

From here, you can see most of the port outside. Some soldiers in black uniforms lined up on a small warship. After a while, the warship slowly left the port, and two helicopters followed.

"How did they get here?" He Xiao questioned, "Case, tell me the way."

"Let me tell you!" Marth's voice jumped out, "I have been watching Fu Yunlan's movements, because I know that the master will definitely want to know his news, and I am more understanding than Case. The artificial intelligence system, which is several times more popular, will of course always keep the owner's preferences in mind. At that time, Fu Yunlan saw the helicopter flying towards Hummingbird Town, so she immediately dropped what she was doing and rushed back. After returning to Hummingbird Town, because Kars didn't understand what the master asked him to convey, and told Yunlan that the master had been kidnapped, ah no, he was cheated away, so Fu Yunlan immediately modified the battery of the car, pulled these and insisted on coming with him The people who rescued them chased after Bainiao Port. In Bainiao Port, they saw that the owner had gone away on the aircraft carrier, so they drove back to Hummingbird Town, prepared some things, and forcibly pulled a The old man who used to fly a commercial airliner came to a nearby abandoned airport, killed dozens of zombies, found a plane that could still fly, and cobbled together a box from other broken planes Aviation fuel, just like this, drove a broken plane decades ago on the road. When it was more than 200 kilometers away from the Hawaiian Islands, the engine that was in disrepair still died. They had to make an emergency landing on the sea, and then Take out the prepared rubber boat and continue heading towards Hawaii Island, although it is reckless, but this kind of persistent spirit is really admirable, don’t you think so, Case?”

Case said in a steady voice: "Refuse to express useless opinions."

"How can this be called a useless point of view? But I think it's true. An elm lump like you will definitely not care about the mood of the owner. Do you know what an elm lump is? Don't tell me that you are not an elm structure Yes, this is a metaphor, do you understand the metaphor?"

"You're too loud," Case said flatly.

"You actually said that I..." Marth's voice stopped abruptly, obviously because Case had cut off the connection with the audio equipment.

Celeste could no longer see the warship leaving, he finally sat on the sofa absent-mindedly, and poked the apple in front of him with a fork, while He Xiao held his chin silently and fell into thought.

On the sea without any reference, the small rubber boat seemed to be motionless in place. After a while, they finally saw the stretch of islands in the distance clearly.

Fu Yunlan knew that he had found the right direction, at least he didn't have to worry about getting lost in the sea, but before they could breathe a sigh of relief, they saw a warship and two helicopters slowly approaching from the direction of the island, It looked like they were coming towards them.

Originally, their plan was to wait for the dark on the outside, and then sneak to the island, but they didn't expect to be spotted at such a long distance. The people on the rubber boat all clenched their weapons as if they were facing an enemy, Fu Yunlan But he said to them, "Put the gun down."

"But, who knows what they are here for?" Kars said uncomfortably.

"No matter what the reason is, we are obviously not their opponents. Put down the gun first and be careful."

They did as they did. Seeing the warship gradually approaching, a tweeter sounded from the ship: "I am Qin Feng, the captain of the Blue Shield Group's garrison team. I have been ordered to welcome everyone into the base. Please board the ship."

A rope ladder was placed on the ship's side, everyone hesitated for a moment, Fu Yunlan said, "I'll go up first."

He slung his assault rifle over his shoulder and was the first to climb the rope ladder.

Qin Feng is a man in his forties. He wears a blindfold on his right eye. He is upright, and his expression is not angry. He looks like a commander with the qualities of a professional soldier. He looked Fu Yunlan up and down, Fu Yunlan Lan couldn't help but ask first: "I'm here to find Celeste, is he okay now?"

Qin Feng said: "Cherister is the president's distinguished guest and is visiting the island. You will see him soon."

Although Qin Feng said so, the soldiers on board did not show any hostility, but Fu Yunlan still had no idea in his heart, and other people on the rubber boat also climbed onto the boat one after another. In the strange atmosphere that came, he was sent to the island that seemed to travel through time and space.

When this group of dusty and tattered people walked into the clean and tidy Blue Shield Group, although the surrounding staff did not stop to watch, at most there were a few curious eyes, they still felt uncomfortable, Qin Feng When they were asked to wait in the reception room, they were even ashamed to sit on the brand new sofa in their dirty and torn clothes.

"Wow, the Blue Shield Group is really...too luxurious." The cowboy touched the brand-new exquisite furniture with emotion.

"Can glass be so transparent?" Li Kailin couldn't believe it and touched the glass curtain wall, which was so transparent that it didn't seem to exist. Her fingers left an obvious mark on the glass. She wiped it with her sleeve embarrassingly, but Make the mark more obvious.

"Are these things for us to eat? What kind of fruit is this?" The bomber studied the cut fruit on the plate, hesitantly daring to open his mouth.

Fu Yunlan didn't have time to pay attention to these things, he walked back and forth anxiously in the reception room, until the door of the reception room opened, and Celeste, who he had been thinking about for two days, appeared in front of him safe and sound.

"Blue!" As soon as Celeste saw him, he jumped into his arms with two quick steps. Fu Yunlan hugged the body in his arms tightly with one hand, only to feel that a big part of his heart seemed to be missing suddenly. Filled, and the source of his restless anxiety for two days was gone.

After he was relieved, he looked up at the man who came in with Celeste.

He Xiao looks very upright, with a straight suit, looks like a dog, and exudes a kind of self-confidence that everything is under control. He just stands there calmly, which makes people have a feeling that they must look up.

Fu Yunlan frowned, not hiding her hostility: "Why did you kidnap Celeste?"

He Xiao smiled gently: "This is just a misunderstanding, the situation at that time, if we stayed in Hummingbird Town to greet you friendly, explain the matter clearly, and get everyone's consent, we will wait for you to come back to say goodbye or hold a farewell party What, it will definitely bring unpredictable danger to everyone, after all, the Devourer has been watching my every move."

Everyone looked at each other in confusion, and He Xiao said before they questioned: "You must be tired and hungry now after traveling all night, Paggy, arrange for them to eat and rest, everything will be discussed after you have rested."

Said he left a female secretary and left.

"Paggy, Secretary General of Blue Shield Group, is here to serve you, please follow me." The blond woman in her 30s began to entertain them with a businesslike expression.

Beethoven was wearing brand-new clothes and high-end wireless earphones, and was happily shaking his legs to the beat. When he saw Kars and the others, he greeted lazily: "Yo , you are here too, just in time, let me tell you, life here is really--comfortable."

"Have you been subdued by them in just one night?" Kars has dared to joke with Beethoven now, and began to denounce him for easily bowing to the kidnappers for a corrupt life, but when the chef will When plates of delicious food with meat and vegetables were served, Kars immediately shut up.

"I haven't eaten the same thing since yesterday, big fish and meat, vegetables and fruits, desserts and snacks, whatever you want." Beethoven held a chicken leg in his hand, and bit the bone together with a "click" sound.

After being in disbelief for a while, everyone threw themselves into the embrace of the delicious food. Fu Yunlan looked at the plate in front of her with a dignified expression.

There is fresh beef and fried eggs on the plate, and there are more than four different vegetables, each of which seems to be harvested from very healthy plants when they are at their freshest and most delicious, and there is cod salad on the side , clam soup, and several other side dishes.

Celeste sat across from him, took a bite of the omelet, and looked at Fu Yunlan suspiciously: "What's the matter, don't you have an appetite?"

"...It's nothing." Fu Yunlan picked up the knife and fork.
