After an unknown amount of time, the strong wind outside the house stopped.A thin layer of ice formed on the window glass, filtering the moonlight that shone into the house.

Lieutenant Shen Si didn't fall asleep, but just closed his eyes and rested his mind. He heard the rhythmic breathing behind him and knew that Kreiter was not asleep, so he couldn't relax his vigilance.

The cabin was extremely quiet, like the sea level after a storm.But at this moment, Lieutenant Shen Si felt Kleite's left hand move suddenly.

The sound of "rustling" came from the lower back to the back of the neck, and Shen Siwei kept his breath calmly, wanting to see what Kreiter was going to do.

In the next second, the hair on the back of the head was grabbed by someone.

One, two, three.

Although Shen Siwei didn't feel pain, what kind of childish ghost is this person?Stay up most of the night and pull his hair?

He tilted his chin impatiently: "Are you finished?"

Crater was not guilty of being caught, but instead asked, "Is this your original hair color?"

Shen Siwei did not answer: "It has nothing to do with you."

"I know your eyes can change color," said Crait. "Your eyes turn red when you kill someone."

Lieutenant Shen Si didn't know this, but Kleite was right, his hair color, pupil color and skin color could change.

There are too many suspicious points. If Kreiter is not a researcher in Dr. Chen's laboratory, then...

They may have actually known each other before.

"After you were taken away, I reviewed what happened in those few days." Krete said slowly, his smoke sounded lazy and grinding, "I once saw a man with black hair and black eyes Suspicious person, it should be you. Since your eyes can change color, your hair should also be able to."

Shen Siwei listened quietly, and tried his best to search for the fragments in his memory, but he couldn't match the number no matter what.

"I said that you are like a friend of mine. You all came to perform missions, but in the end you turned against each other. In fact, you are most similar to him when you have black hair and black eyes, because he also has the same hair color and pupil color."

Lieutenant Shen Si had no clue about what Kreiter said.

He believed that Klett also knew that he wouldn't feel anything when he heard it, but Klett was still talking, stubbornly, talking to himself.

It's not that Captain Shen couldn't feel that Kreiter had a lot to say, as if he had been holding back for a long time, and today he finally had a chance.

But Wei Shen's focus is not here.He asked, "Who are your friends?"

——He was more concerned about which traitor appeared in their team.

"He's dead." Clayte said slowly, his voice sounding dull.

Sad emotions seemed to come from behind, and Shen Siwei felt a little blocked for no reason.He looked at the wooden wall and said bluntly, "Go to sleep."

Soon there was no movement behind him, and his breathing rhythm gradually became gentler.

Just when Lieutenant Shen Si thought that Kreiter had fallen asleep, the deep voice sounded from behind: "I'm hungry."

His temples throbbed suddenly, and Shen Siwei said angrily: "Get the nutrients in the backpack by yourself!"

The destination marked by Amor on the map is in the deepest part of the ice sheet, and it will take half a day to get there from the resting point where Captain Shen Si is.

The dual-purpose motorcycle could have used the flight mode to greatly shorten the journey time, but if it brought Kreit, the battery might not be able to support the two of them to return.

"Are you going to the ice dome today?" Kreit asked honestly while sitting on the back seat of the motorcycle.

Shen Siwei didn't answer, but buried himself in the electronic map in his hand.

Now he is facing a dilemma: if he uses the flight mode, the battery may run out halfway; if he uses the land mode, he may encounter greater danger.

The real "killer" on the ice sheet is not bad weather, but the ice crevasses and undercurrents hidden under the ice and snow.

On the surface, the white road seems to be flat, but in fact the road may be just an illusion. When the vehicle presses on it, it will fall into a huge crack or a turbulent river.

Even experienced explorers who are already familiar with the conditions of the ice field may stumble, because the ice crevasses and undercurrents under the ice and snow will change their positions.

Shen Siwei is obviously not an experienced explorer, he can only rule out some superficial dangers based on the satellite scan map.

It is of course the most trouble-free to use the airplane mode, but it will consume power very quickly, and it will be even more dangerous if the two of them are trapped on the ice sheet.

Lifting his eyes from the map, Shen Siwei looked ahead, and saw two obvious ruts on the thick snow, which were traces left by previous explorers.

This is the tacit rule of the ice field exploration - everyone must follow the ruts left by the predecessors. First, they can avoid danger, and second, they can deepen their marks and guide the direction for latercomers.

Looking from a distance, the ruts stretched to the end of the line of sight, pointing out a clear path to Wei Shen.

He put his heart down for the time being, turned off the electronic map, and said to Kreit in the back seat: "Grab it."

Clayt's hands were handcuffed behind his back, and he could only grab the rear of the motorcycle.The engine roared, and the two began to move toward the depths of the ice sheet.

The strong wind whizzed by my ears, scraping my face like ice skates.Lieutenant Shen Si originally thought that Kreiter would be terribly cold, but he looked in the rearview mirror and found that this man was blowing the wind leisurely, as if he was traveling.

What a weirdo.

Lieutenant Shen Si withdrew his gaze, no longer paid attention to Kleite, and concentrated on driving along the rut.

After traveling for more than an hour, a dim "curtain wall" of ice and snow suddenly appeared in front of the line of sight.

The sun was blocked behind the curtain wall, and the cold air rushed towards the face, and the temperature dropped several degrees obviously.

"It's a snowstorm." Kret's voice sounded behind him, "Stop the car quickly."

Lieutenant Shen Si looked at the electronic map while releasing the accelerator, and saw that the low pressure sign appeared without warning in the originally sunny area, and the blue sign was still getting bigger and bigger.

He immediately stopped the motorcycle and turned the motorcycle sideways, facing the direction of the snowstorm. Then he pulled Kleite, and the two hid behind the motorcycle together.

The signs on the electronic map moved extremely fast, and within ten seconds, the overwhelming wind and snow enveloped the two of them, and the dark surroundings looked like the end of the world.

Ice balls and stones hit the motorcycle, making a "cracking" sound. While holding down the oxygen mask, Lieutenant Shen quickly took off his pilot jacket and put it on Kleiter's head.

——The air pressure and temperature in the center of the storm are extremely low. He is afraid that Kleite will freeze to death or be unable to breathe, so that he will not be able to communicate upwards.

However, Kreiter was not as painful as Shen Siwei imagined. He moved his neck, poked his head out from under his coat, and looked at Shen Siwei with some surprises in his eyes. He probably didn't expect that Shen Siwei would take off his coat. he.

"I'm afraid you're dead." Shen Siwei frowned, and raised his voice in the howling wind, "I can't do business."

Crater smiled lightly, as if to say that it was so.

The wind turned out to be stronger, and it almost made people unable to open their eyes.The dual-purpose motorcycle has a flying engine, and the body is heavy, but it is also constantly moved backwards by the wind.

Lieutenant Shen Si didn't pay attention, his feet slipped, and he was driven forward by the motorcycle for a short distance. At this moment, Kleite suddenly leaned over and supported the weight of the motorcycle with his shoulders.

Lieutenant Shen Si raised his chin and looked at Kreit who was close at hand. He heard Kreit whisper, "You're welcome."

The sound was quickly drowned in the strong wind, as if nothing had happened.

The two of them depended closely on each other, resisting the sudden snowstorm together. The wind and snow all over the sky seemed to form a cocoon around the two of them, wrapping them inside.

The body didn't seem to feel cold, because the people around him were as hot as a fireball, melting the ice and snow on their bodies.

Maybe it was only a few minutes, or maybe a few hours later, the snowstorm finally stopped.

The two people and the car were almost buried by ice and snow, only the upper part of the chest was still exposed to the air.

Lieutenant Shen Si stood up, patted the icicles on his hair, and put on his aviator jacket again. At this moment, he suddenly saw a scratch a few centimeters long on Kreiter's neck, which should have been caused by the wind. It was made by stones.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

——He didn't care about whether Crater was in pain or not, he just didn't want Crater to get hurt and slow down his progress.

Kelet touched his neck and said, "It's okay."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Shen Siwei's unscathed skin and asked, "Aren't you going to get hurt?"

Shen Siwei didn't answer, and got on the motorcycle: "Get in the car."

"No wonder you beat the desert wolf before, your clothes were bitten like that, but your body is fine."

Kleite was again saying something that Wei Shen couldn't understand.

By beating the desert wolf, did he mean the time when he said the two drove away the aberrant monster?

The logic of the story is quite complete.

The motorcycle started again and moved forward on the soft snow and ice.But this time Wei Shen's driving speed became very slow, and there was no other reason——

The ruts on the ground disappeared after the snowstorm.

This is an extremely dangerous situation for all explorers.

Generally, there will be experienced guides in the expedition team, and the guides will open up a new road based on the satellite situation and their own understanding of the ice field.But Shen Siwei didn't have this ability, he could only concentrate and grope towards his destination.

"Have you been to the ice field before?" Kleite asked suddenly behind him.

"No." Wei Shen said, looking at the road ahead.

"Then you drive so confidently."

Shen Siwei: "..."

if not?

If they don't move forward, don't the two of them take root and sprout in place?

The icy and snowy road without ruts is very dangerous, and Shen Siwei couldn't pay attention to chasing Kleite back and forth.

He continued driving nervously, keeping his speed below 20 yards.Fortunately, bad luck did not come to the door today, and they walked forward for more than half an hour, and the two of them have not encountered any dangerous situation.

But after turning over a small snow mound, a wider ice field appeared ahead.The electronic map popped up a reminder to drive carefully, and Shen Siwei had no choice but to tense his nerves even more.

And at this moment, two hands suddenly reached out from behind him, grabbing the handlebars of the motorcycle.

"The area ahead is densely packed with ice crevasses." Kreiter was much taller than Lieutenant Shen Si, and when he spoke, his voice was above Lieutenant Shen Si's ears, "Let me drive."

"No." Lieutenant Shen Si didn't react immediately, and turned his head to stare blankly at Kreiter, "Where are your handcuffs?"

Crater looked ahead of his line of sight and said casually, "Throw it away."
