Tang Li held the string of pearls and jade in her hand, raised her finger slightly, and the pearls and jade fell down with a clear and crisp sound.

The pearls and jade are connected one by one, strung together with thin threads. The color of the jade is very good, filled with a layer of warm luster, like coagulated milk.

There is a saying that "the day in Lantian is warm and jade raises smoke", saying that jade energy nourishes people. Chu Chisi always felt that it was not in line with scientific laws, but thinking about it now, it is not unreasonable. ①

Under the warm sunshine, the jade stone lay in her white and slender hands, it really seemed to be surrounded by a hazy layer of smoke.

Chu Chisi was sitting on the sofa, with one leg bent and the other resting on the edge, stepping on the fluff of the carpet with his toes, standing on tiptoe a little.

She is not tall enough, the insteps of her feet are slightly arched, and she can only reach the ground after being stretched. The small piles on the cashmere carpet are a little wrinkled after being stepped on. .

Dinner was late, because the food was cold, so Tang Li could only go to the kitchen to reheat it silently under his wife's "condemning" gaze.

In fact, at the beginning, Tang Li's cooking skills were quite poor.

This has to be traced back to the time when she was still called "No. 63". At that time, Tang Li was cold and fierce, with scars and murderous intentions on her back, and she cut fruit for Chu Chisi expressionlessly.

She does know how to cook, but it is only limited to "eatable". As a member of the sixth military dog ​​team, they only need to be able to maintain their own physiological needs, and do not need to pursue so-called delicious food, dishes, tricks, etc.

Fortunately, Chu Chisi is so easy to feed, no matter what Tang Li cooks, she thinks it is delicious. After going back and forth, Tang Li's cooking skills are getting better and better, and Chu Chisi has never touched kitchen utensils again.

The infrared rays detected the objects, and the water rushed down. Tang Li brushed the dishes with a small brush, and Chu Chisi helped her put the dishes into the dishwasher one by one.

She works carefully and carefully. She must put the bowls from large to small, and the dishes with the same pattern must be next to each other, unlike Tang Li who throws them everywhere every time. The beautiful name is: "As long as you can wash it."

"What dessert do you want to eat later?"

Tang Li smiled and asked, "The weather is hot recently, and I bought a lot of ice creams. I think you can choose them later."

Chu Chisi took off his gloves, moved to Tang Li's side in small steps, and hugged her lightly from behind.

"What ice cream did you buy?"

Her voice scorched her ears, it was light and soft, her breathing sound was extraordinarily distinct, it clearly didn't touch her, but it seemed to be clinging to her beating heart.

Tang Li said: "There are a lot of them, some are fruit flavored, and some are milk tea flavored. Anyway, I picked a few of each, and we can eat slowly."

Chu Chisi said "Oh", let go of the hand around her waist, and instead strolled to the refrigerator, watching a lot of ice creams of different styles and began to get tangled.

By the time Tang Li wiped the table clean, Chu Chisi had already gone out of the kitchen, pure music was playing on the TV, and the sound of the piano was tinkling.

Like a stream, flowing past the two of them.

"Let me guess, what flavor did you choose?" Tang Li wandered over and sat down next to Chu Chisi.

She blinked, and got very close, the tip of her nose seemed to be close to her ear, she bit her ear and said, "Coffee flavor?"

Chu Chisi avoided her, but his ears turned red from the sound, and he muttered, "You don't know me yet."

Tang Li was quite proud: "Of course, an Alpha who doesn't know his wife can't find a wife."

Chu Chisi: "..."

Chu Chisi: "...you made an obvious logical error...Forget it, I brought you ice cream too."

She handed over another box of ice cream on the table, and stuffed the small spoon into Tang Li's hand: "It's for you."

Tang Li doesn't like sweets, but one of her favorite things is to eat sweets with her wife, so she took it happily.

The ice cream box was very small, not as big as Tang Li's palm. She dug a little with a small spoon, put it in her mouth and licked it, quite surprised: "Strawberry flavor?"

Chu Chisi nodded.

She was silent for a while, then asked in a low voice, "Don't you like strawberry flavor?"

Seeing Chu Chisi looking at her, Tang Li pursed her lips and smiled, leaned over and kissed the corner of her wife's lips: "I like everything."

She added: "I like you the most."

Tang Li was the same as before, and her straightforward and enthusiastic love words were critical as always. Chu Chi froze in thought and almost couldn't hold the ice cream in his hand.

The kiss was gone as soon as it was touched, but the faint aroma remained on the corners of the lips, and the tip of the tongue licked it, and one could taste the melted strawberry-flavored ice cream.

"...Go eat your ice cream," Chu Chisi said forcefully, elbowing Tang Li, "Don't mess with me."

Tang Li smiled brightly, but obediently went back to her original seat. She dug another large scoop of ice cream and stuffed it into her mouth.

Chu Chisi bit her mouth, the speed was much slower than her, her lips were covered with a layer of water, which looked extraordinarily soft.

"If you like it," Tang Li lay back and fell on her shoulders, "Next time we go out together, I'll take you to buy it."

The long black hair was on her pillow, and it flowed down like silk. Tang Li turned her face slightly, and the tip of her nose rubbed some light fragrance from the ends of her hair, and rubbed against the skin around her neck.

Chu Chisi was puzzled by Tang Li's proposal: "Now that the transportation is so developed, it would be better to order directly online and have a robot deliver it to your door. Why do you have to go out?"

Tang Li said: "Because you can see the sun, you can see small flowers, and there are all kinds of ice cream when you go out."

Chu Chisi shook his head: "I can see the same thing with the computer, why bother to go out."

After coming out of Jingfan, Chu Chisi, who had been flying through several areas without panting, returned to the previous state of "never go out if he can't go out".

Tang Li thought about it again and said, "But if you agree to go out together, I will be very happy."

Chu Chisi paused: "How happy."

Tang Li then raised her head, touched her cheek with her lips, and kissed her softly: "So happy."

The blush rose from the tips of the ears and burned all the way to the neck. Chu Chisi lowered his head and murmured: "Go, then go."

Today's Tang Li is still strictly practicing her own motto: she really is the one who knows his wife best in the world. .

It was still an ordinary day in the laboratory, but Chu Chisi noticed that Pai Pai and Tang Li seemed to be a little absent-minded and didn't know what they were thinking.

Pai Pai was very excited today. He wrote code and wrote a lot of error reports. He almost made a salesman NPC who was buying a printer rush into the cold storage to kill fish. Fortunately, Xi Bianyan stopped him in time.

"Pai Pai! What's wrong with you today?" Xi Bianyan helped her cover the code, a little worried, "Are you okay?"

Pai Pai was full of energy, looked at her with big eyes, and said, "Ah? Ah! I'm fine."

Xi Bianyan: "..."

Xi Bianyan: "You have made mistakes several times today, did you stay up late to read novels last night?"

"I swear to God I didn't." Pai Pai swallowed, not daring to say that she was so excited that she stayed up all night because of the "big plan" with Tang Li.

Xi Bianyan frowned and looked at her a few times.

The two little assistants were "flying chickens and dogs jumping", and Chu Chisi's side was similar.Tang Li, the captain of Team A, who is the ceiling of the northern alliance's force, actually cut the cake with his own hands.

But Chu Chisi was terrified, and hurriedly turned out the medicine box, and even wanted to go to the biology laboratory next door to borrow some ointment.

Tang Li was very calm, and held her back: "Chi Si, after you go out for a while and come back, the wound may be healed."

Chu Chisi: "..."

It seems so.

That small cut cut on the little finger will cut through the skin, spilling out a grain of blood.

Chu Chisi held a cotton ball with tweezers, soaked in alcohol and slowly wiped off the blood, her slender eyebrows frowned, making Tang Li a little dumbfounded.

"It's really just a minor injury." Tang Li explained silently, "I accidentally got distracted."

Of course, she was not "distracted", but deliberately scratched herself, and wanted to find an excuse to leave, but she never thought that such a small wound would make Chu Chisi so anxious.

Chu Chisi shook his head: "You told me yourself that the wounds are not big or small, and they should be treated properly."

Tang Li really said this sentence, and suffered from being dumb, so she had to keep silent.

Chu Chisi was very skilled in treating the wound. After applying the ointment, he put a small piece of hemostatic patch on Tang Li.

She frowned and said softly, "Okay."

Tang Li glanced at the piece of adhesive tape, and while the two little assistants beside her were still arguing, she quickly kissed her on the lips.

Her voice was sweet: "Thank you, wife."

"Thank you," Chu Chisi pursed his lips, and immediately began to doubt, "Why did you suddenly cut yourself?"

Tang Li said: "I didn't pay attention when cutting the cake. I was so concerned about my wife that I accidentally cut it."

Chu Chisi: "..."

"Okay, I'm just joking," Tang Li explained, "but I'm really thinking about something."

Sitting next to Chu Chisi, Tang Li put a small piece of cake into her mouth. The sweet and greasy cream slowly melted, making her feel so greasy that she wanted to crush something.

She doesn't like sweets, except for her wife.

Tang Li frowned and smiled, "I may have to go back to the Armed Forces tomorrow, and I won't be back all day. I haven't figured out how to tell you yet."

Chu Chisi breathed a sigh of relief: "It's only a day, you just say it."

"You are willing to part with me, but I am not willing to part with you," Tang Li said. "Tomorrow, I will call a few guards I trust over to replace my work for a day."

Chu Chisi agreed.

After this episode, a day passed quickly, and it was time to get off work in a blink of an eye. Pai Pai hid in the storage room of the Academy of Sciences with his schoolbag on his back.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and the Academy of Sciences gradually quieted down. Many laboratories were still lit, but the hall was empty, and only occasionally patrolling security guards could be seen.

Tomorrow is a rest day, neither Chu Chisi nor Xi Bianyan will come to the laboratory, this is a good opportunity for them to secretly use the mirror.

Pai Pai trotted all the way back to the laboratory, unlocked the electronic access control, and then turned on the lights in the room.

The laboratory is still the same, with various documents and instruments neatly arranged, and two mirrors are placed on the circular workbench.

The light blue light was faintly shining, and circled around the machine several times. The intricate pipes connected the inner layer. Pai Pai inspected it carefully and pulled out a few of them.

While she was studying, the door was suddenly "knocked" twice. Before Pai Pai had time to open the door, the electronic door lock opened with a "beep--".

Pai Pai's eyes widened: "This, this?!"

Tang Li was wearing black clothes and black trousers, almost blending into the darkness behind her. She carried a man who was tied up and covered his eyes, mouth and nose, and walked in with great strides.

As soon as she let go, Yin hit the ground hard.Her hands and feet were bound, black cloth was wrapped around her long silver hair, her eyes were tightly blindfolded, and something was stuffed in her mouth, so she couldn't make a sound.

"This," Pai Pai was shocked, and hurriedly pulled aside Tang Li, who was with the old god, and whispered to her, "Why did you bring her directly?!"

Tang Li was very calm: "She can only support one or two remote connections at most, which is far from enough."

Pai: "..."

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is really the truth.Even a top Alpha like Tang Li can only withstand five or six remote connections, let alone a Beta like Yin who is already thin.

"K-but she is the highest-ranked prisoner," Pai Pai was terrified, "Major General, is it okay for you to bring her out directly?"

Tang Li had an indifferent expression: "Don't be fine if Tang Yiqi finds out, even if you are found out, it's fine, even if it's a little troublesome."

Pai Pai: "...".

Everyone was brought here, so Pai Pai had no choice but to hurry up. She set up the mirror, and Tang Li sat on the sofa for a while, then went out to answer the phone.

It's from the Alpha team.

"Major General, we have tracked down Ni Xitong's traces on the snow-capped mountains. As you said, we are following her not far or near, leaving some traces on purpose."

The teammate said to her: "In the past few days, Ni Xitong has been running around in fear. There are several times when we just found some food, we were scared away."

Tang Li smiled: "Very good."

"You keep following her," Tang Li ordered slowly, "let her feel lucky and feel that she has a little hope of escaping."

【Then--】

【She will completely smash this hope. 】

"Except for Ni Xitong, what about the list of tens of thousands of people I gave you earlier?" Tang Li asked.

The list in her mouth is naturally that Pai Pai cracked the remaining programs in the mirror before, and repaired the data that should have been deleted when the mirror was destroyed.

Silver called this operation: "White Ring" (Bungarusmulticinctus) plan.The name comes from a venomous snake in nature, the white ring snake.

It really fits very well.

Tang Li sneered silently.

Yin is naturally the top person in charge, while Ni Xitong is the core of the scientific research team. Except for many related personnel, there are two types of "raiders" who have entered Wenjing.

They are named with different "code names" in the records, and the attackers starting with "NS" (number_of_southern_members) are all SAARC insiders, including interrogation experts, psychologists, and so on.

NS Raiders are relatively small, only about 2000 people, and the number of Raiders named after "NM" (number_of_materials) is dozens of times more.

Most of these "raiders" are ordinary SAARC residents, who were lured in by Yin with so-called "traveling bureaus", "raider missions", "SSS-level endings", and "generous bonuses and security of food and clothing".

Due to the large number and messiness, it is difficult to track them down, so Tang Li's current investigation focus is still on the NM Raiders.

Unfortunately, since most of the people are located within the borders of the SAARC countries, there is not much information that can be obtained, and the Alpha team can only look for more clues in neutral countries.

Tang Li was in no hurry.

Tang Yiqi is also very good at Nanmeng, anyway, she has plenty of time to spend slowly with the other party.

Although Tang Yiqi was threatened with a letter of resignation, Chu Chisi won the right to "do not need to come to work until his body fully recovers".

But after all, this is still nowhere near the itch. What Tang Li wants is the information related to the "remote-controlled neurotoxin" in Tang Yiqi's hands, and the activator that controls Chu Chisi's life.

The "accident" at the research institute was too long ago, and the relevant investigation reports had long been destroyed and deleted, and only remained in people's memories.

In Tang Yiqi's eyes, Tang Li was just an insider who knew "Nightingale" and guessed "the truth of the accident".

Tang Yiqi didn't know that Tang Li still held another "trump card", an evidence that was enough to convict her.

But Tang Li doesn't want to use the "trump card" in her hand for the time being, and she is also worried that Tang Yiqi will kill her. She needs to maintain the current balance, and she needs some other chips to compete with Tang Yiqi for the toxin trigger.

And Yin in front of him might know something. .

Luoxue knocked on the glass rapidly, the cold wind howled outside the window, and it was a dark night where you couldn't see your fingers.

Yin woke up drowsily on the chair, she coughed several times in succession, and slowly regained her senses.

It was late at night, it was dark outside the window, but the lights were on in the room, the surrounding decoration was simple and elegant, and there was a scent of sandalwood.

Strange... where is this?

Yin frowned, feeling that the scene in front of her was very familiar for no reason. She circled around and her eyes fell on the flag not far away.

The silver long sword stood among thorns, the dark green thorns wrapped around the body of the sword, and the blade cut through the thorns, making it inviolable.

[That is the symbol of SAARC. 】

Yin shuddered, suddenly remembering what kind of place this was.This is clearly the place where the "Snow Mountain Encirclement and Suppression" of the Northern League took place many years ago.

If she remembers correctly, the Northern Alliance issued a death order to the 6th Military Dog Team, attacking with a suicide attack, trying to snatch this military fortress at all costs.

How could I come back here?

There was noise and confusion in the ears, and a heavy pain in the brain. Some things were clear, but most of the memories were blurred and chaotic.

Yin pressed her forehead and stood up. The only thing she remembered now was the extremely tragic scene during the "Snow Mountain Siege" and the explosion that would happen afterwards.

She flipped through the backpack and documents beside her, and finally remembered some bits and pieces.

Her own name is "Silver". She was originally a close friend and strategist of Tang Yiqi, a major general (now admiral) of the Northern League.

Because of the "accident" at the research institute, Yin and Tang Yiqi had a complete falling out. Only three days after the "accident", they resolutely betrayed the North Alliance and joined the South Alliance camp.

Apart from his bad reputation, Chu Lian is simply the strongest and most obedient chess piece in Tang Yiqi's hands compared to his crazy behavior.

But it was such a crazy, beautiful, and loyal woman, but Tang Yiqi was able to kill her mercilessly and destroy all the evidence.

【I want to avenge Chu Lian, even if I want to use her only daughter. 】

Chu Chisi, that seemingly indifferent but soft-hearted child, was submissive when he was studying in Beike, and did not inherit her mother's charm at all.

What a complete disappointment.

Yin closed the file, only to feel that her head hurt more and more. She frowned and looked around, always feeling a strange feeling in her heart.

Everything around is too real,

It's eeriely real.

It was as if she had really "traveled through time and space" and returned to the snowy night when the snow mountain siege happened, and for her that nightmarish event would continue to happen like a ghost hitting a wall.

Yin suppressed some uneasy emotions in her heart, she pushed open the door and walked out, strangely, there was no one in the corridor, only her and her footsteps.

Strange, what about the patrolling guards?

It was about half an hour before the snow mountain siege officially started, but the whole fortress was empty, as if there were no other living people except her.

There was only a terrible silence.

That weird feeling surged into her heart again, and Yin vaguely realized that she should... not be in the real world, she should be dreaming, or hallucinating.

But the memory was confused, she couldn't remember it.

As time passed by, Silver felt like a guinea pig in Tolman's maze experiment, searching in the empty fortress at a loss. ②

She kept walking and running into walls, the doors and windows were sealed, she could see the night, but she couldn't find anyone alive, and she couldn't get out.

Panic, fear, uneasiness, and a deep sense of powerlessness enveloped Yin, and those majestic emotions solidified, filling her like cement and blocking her breathing.

I don't know how long I walked, after going around in the silver pocket for several times, I finally found the gate of the fortress, which was half hidden, and the sound of howling wind and snow leaked out.

Great, you can find someone when you get out!

Yin rushed over almost joyfully, the door was very heavy, she spent some effort before slowly pushing it open, and walked into the wind, snow and darkness.

The snow was deep and thick, and the snowflakes mixed with hail were fiercely behind him, and the cold wind scraped his cheeks, which was extremely painful.

Yin walked staggeringly, but she did see a little light in the night, which seemed to be a small cabin, with a warm orange glow in the distance.

She walked for a long time, her mouth was dry and her calves were trembling, and she finally reached the door of the cabin.

The beautiful, bright lights were within reach, Silver could even smell a hint of dinner, and compared to the cold and dark fortress, this place was like paradise.

Yin breathed out, and she was about to push open the door of the hut when someone approached behind her, her long hair was grabbed, and she slammed it fiercely to the ground.

His forehead hit the stone steps of the cabin with a "bang", and a deep bloodstain was made. Yin Wuzhu stretched out his hand. The light was close at hand, but he would never be able to touch it.

"Cough, cough cough—"

Yin coughed intermittently, her long hair was pulled tightly, and the man pulled her up abruptly, forcing Yin to look at him.

"Your speed is really slow," the man said lazily, "I followed you all the way and watched you go into several wrong rooms."

She has long, rare brown-blond hair blown by the wind, reminiscent of ever-moving sand dunes in a desert, never finding an exit.

More memories flooded into my mind.

Yin's eyes widened in horror, her throat was dry and hoarse, and it took a long time before she could say a word: "Tang...Tang pear?"

"……Do not."

Tang Li narrowed her eyes slightly, and a bright dog tag fell from her neck, glowing with a cold light.

"It's No. 63." Tang Li said slowly, "It's No. 63 who blew up your fortress, killed countless guards, and almost killed you too."

As soon as Tang Li said, the hellish scene in her memory flooded into Yin's mind. She struggled to escape, but was held down tightly by the other party, unable to move. "

"Don't rush away," Tang Li smiled, her voice was light, "We have a lot, a lot of time to play slowly."

"What exactly did you do to Chi Si, and how many times did you make her go round——I don't know, and I don't know the specific details."

Tang Li suppressed Yin's movement, held one of her fingers, and with a little force, a "click" and Yin's scream sounded at the same time.

"So, I can only get back twice as much."

The fingers were broken abruptly, the shattered bones pierced into the flesh, and the severe pain rushed into the heart. Silver was pressed in the snow, panting in pain.

"This is the first cycle."

Tang Li smiled and pierced her voice into Yin's eardrum word by word: "Welcome to my hell."
