Chapter 156:
After a big battle, everyone was very tired, but all members of Qiming didn't sleep much in the second half of the night.
After a period of time.
There was a crash of thunder outside the house.
Then the rain came pouring down.
I don't know why, but the sound of rain actually made everyone relax a lot. Perhaps subconsciously, they felt that the enemy would not attack despite the heavy rain.
Chen Mu kept his eyes closed, but he didn't really fall asleep for a while until the rain stopped and the sky became dim outside.
morning.
Everyone gets up early.
Just more or less dark circles.
Chen Mu took Wei Dalei and others outside.
The stone ball is still in place, and the plastic ball on the ground is still shining brightly, but the brightness is not as bright as before, and because of the rain, a large part has been washed away, and the ones left at the door are not not much.
In the critical moment last night, Dong Junwei tried her best, so the brightness and duration of these plastic balls were stronger than those made before.
It was just because it was already broad daylight that I couldn't see it clearly.
Chen Mu walked to the stone ball. He didn't bother to study it last night. Now when he looked carefully, he discovered that the stone ball was not only huge, but also extremely smooth. It looked a bit like marble polished by a machine.
"What kind of superpower could this be?" He turned to look at Tang Jing.
"It's possible, maybe to make the surface of the object smooth?" Tang Jing said: "But such a big stone ball probably took a lot of time to make." Chen Mu asked doubtfully: "If it is just to make the flame effect look real
, Wouldn't it be too wasteful to do this?"
"Maybe this stone ball has other uses?"
"Should we move it in?"
"What's the use?" He Ying asked: "Chen Mu wants to do this It shouldn't be difficult to make a big stone ball."
"It's not difficult to make a stone ball, but there is no way to make its surface so smooth that it can roll easily." Chen Mu smiled and said, "As for its use, I haven't thought of it yet. But since No. 1 Middle School spent all their energy to create it, there is no way they can be allowed to take it back."
It rained really hard last night, and the blood stains on the ground were washed away. It was basically impossible to see the battle last night. Mark of.
Because they didn't sleep well last night, Dong Junwei asked everyone to go back to the room in batches to catch up on sleep during the day, but some follow-up repair work still did not dare to stop.
Especially the lookout.
After testing in a battle, the effect was actually not very good. The main problem was night observation and information transmission.
"I couldn't sleep last night, so I thought of a way to communicate up and down."
"Oh?"
"Use stainless steel to make a hollow pipe, connect the up and down, and make the two ends into a trumpet shape. Will it be possible to talk?" Chen Mu showed her thoughts with her hands.
"Original call?"
Tang Jing smiled and said, "It sounds feasible."
"Then I'll do it now."
The problems exposed in the battle must be solved immediately.
No. 1 Middle School’s attack last night seems not to be a bad thing now. It at least gave everyone a sense of urgency and made them more proactive in doing things.
Dong Junwei suddenly said: "I'm curious, how did they discover us? We obviously haven't been out these days." "Maybe
it's some kind of investigative ability?"
"For example... thermal imaging? Or maybe it's Sun Yuan and Zhao Xiaoyan. To enhance human senses?"
Chen Mu said: "It's also possible that they had already followed us and found this place the day we came back, but they didn't dare to come in rashly and wanted to wait until we got out before taking action." "As a result,
we I haven't been out for many days." He Ying smiled, but she also shuddered in her heart when she thought that she would do morning exercises near the door every morning.
Although the water source is no longer a big problem, He Ying still insists on going outside to find some dew every morning, and everyone also prefers to use dew to wash their hands. Not only is it cleaner, but it also sounds more stylish.
Dong Junwei sighed and said: "No matter what, we are now officially opposed to No. 1 Middle School, and our location has been detected. If they come again next time, they probably won't be able to deal with it so easily." Dong Junwei did not say this to everyone
, Instead, after everyone went to work, they found Tang Jing, He Ying, and Chen Mu alone to discuss future countermeasures.
Chen Mu nodded: "This time we won easily with the help of grenades, but next time, I think they will be prepared." Tang Jing said
: "Don't be too pessimistic, their losses this time are not small, and they probably won't be so fast. Come to take revenge. Moreover, No. 1 Middle School needs to be on guard against Qingbei at all times and will not invest too much power on our side." "Having said that,
I still want to find an opportunity to explore them. Although I couldn't get it last time, There are few supplies, but nothing in terms of information."
"Would you like to go to the canteen again?" He Ying suddenly became energetic.
"Let's wait a few days." Chen Mu nodded: "Get the house in order first."
Tang Jing opened her mouth, hesitated to speak, and finally nodded with a smile without saying anything.
3pm.
The communication channel of the observatory is completed.
The diameter of this communication pipe is nearly 1 centimeter, which really increases Chen Mu's workload. This was requested by Tang Jing, but she only said it was the best result after calculation, but did not take the opportunity to give it to others like before. What knowledge points should be popularized?
Tang Jing's mood has been low since noon, and she even often loses focus.
As if thinking about something.
Chen Mu rarely saw her like this and wanted to ask a few questions.
But then I thought about it, it seemed that I didn't even need to ask about the problem that even Tang Jing couldn't solve.
After the completion of the communication pipe, it aroused everyone's interest, and everyone came over to try it a few times.
It was Chang Junyan's turn to be on duty during the day. After finishing the work, it was naturally his first experiment. He cleared his throat and then sang a national anthem loudly. The sound passed through the pipe and came out from the trumpet below, making a bit of an urn sound. , but it’s pretty clear.
Chang Junyan was tone-deaf, and to be honest, his singing was difficult to listen to. However, everyone still stood still and listened to him singing from beginning to end, and then they came to the position of the trumpet and said a few words to him.
After confirming that I could hear clearly from above, it was almost four o'clock.
Chen Mu did not go to catch up on his sleep.
The main consumption last night was physical strength, and almost no use of supernatural powers. At the age of seventeen or eighteen, there is no problem in staying up for one or two nights.
The main thing is that he has too much to do.
...
The stone ball was rolled back and placed next to the water tank.
Under Chen Mu's command, Wei Dalei easily pushed the stone ball to the designated position by himself, and then was called by Dong Junwei.
As soon as Old Wei left, Gu Yinglong came forward with a curious expression and reached out to touch the stone ball.
Looking at her small size, Chen Mu always felt like she was about to be crushed by a stone ball. After thinking about it, he created a circle of raised barriers on the ground to prevent the stone ball from rolling.
Two people, one large and one small, stood beside the stone ball.
Chen Mu suddenly realized something, turned around and asked, "Have you seen this stone ball?"
"Yes." Gu Yinglong nodded, still looking at the stone ball curiously.
"Where is No. 1 Middle School?"
"Yes, over there is No. 1 Middle School." The little girl continued to nod.
Over the past few days, Dong Junwei told Gu Yinglong the basic situation in the school, and also told her that the people who imprisoned her at the beginning were all from No. 1 Middle School.
With Dong Junwei's character, she was originally unwilling to speak ill of people behind their backs, even if the other person was an enemy, but caring about them would lead to chaos. She was afraid that Gu Yinglong would not be wary of those people, so when he told her these things, the meaning of insinuations was obvious—— Those in No. 1 Middle School are all bad people, ignore them from now on.
Gu Yinglong nodded her little head to express her understanding.
However, she didn't seem to have any resentment towards No. 1 Middle School.
In fact, when Gu Yinglong first arrived, she never showed any expressions of joy, anger, sorrow, or joy on her face. Even though she was locked in a cage, she didn't seem to feel anything wrong.
According to Tang Jing, because she has no memory of "human beings", she doesn't know how a person should live normally. In her world, there is no kindness or bullying, and human emotions are irrelevant to her. It's a completely blank piece of paper.
After these days of getting along, Gu Yinglong is obviously much more cheerful than before, at least she laughs sometimes.
The girls felt sorry for her and took special care of her. Dong Junwei did not arrange any work for her, but Gu Yinglong herself always wanted to help with something.
Often running around in busy crowds with short legs.
But it's obvious that there are very few things she can help with, and sometimes she even gets in the way.
Over time, Gu Yinglong's enthusiasm has been dampened. Now most of the time, she sits aside and watches others do things.
What she likes most is watching Chen Mu use his abilities to transform objects.
Whether it's metal, plastic, or wood or stone, these originally lifeless things transformed in Chen Mu's hands.
In Gu Yinglong's opinion, this was probably magic.
As a result, Chen Mu seemed to have a fixed audience. When it was time to work or train, Gu Yinglong would move a small bench and sit not far from him, holding her chin and looking at him.
This made Chen Mu feel a little uncomfortable at first.
But after a long time, it doesn't matter anymore.
At this time, Chen Mu thought that Gu Yinglong had stayed in No. 1 Middle School for a while and might have seen this stone ball. But judging from her curious look, she must have never observed her up close.
"Have you ever seen this big stone ball when you were in No. 1 Middle School?"
"Yes." Gu Yinglong nodded her little head.
"Have you seen it somewhere? Canteen?"
"Yes, there are many canteens."
"Many?"
"Yes, thirty-three."
"Have you counted them?"
"Yeah." Gu Yinglong nodded in her signature way. and "Hmm" to continue answering.
Chen Mu was speechless for a moment, but thinking that she was probably locked in an iron cage with nothing to do, he counted things to play with.
"Are all those stone balls this size?"
"Yeah."
"Do you know what they are used for?"
"I don't know." Gu Yinglong shook her head.
Chen Mu asked some more questions, but Gu Yinglong was basically just a tool at No. 1 Middle School, and they probably wouldn't let her wander around, so there weren't many things that could be found out.
There were just so many stone balls, and he didn't know what No. 1 Middle School was going to do. According to his and Tang Jing's guess, even if there were relevant superpowers, it would definitely not be very easy to polish such a big stone ball smooth. easy.
"What are we talking about?"
Tang Jing came over with a smile on her face. Her absent-minded look in the afternoon no longer existed, as if she was back to the confident Tang Jing.
When Gu Yinglong saw that they seemed to be talking, she consciously moved the small bench and left.
"Tell me, how did Gu Yinglong get caught by people from No. 1 Middle School? And how did they know that she had this special ability? According to their previous behavior pattern, shouldn't they take action when they see it?" Chen Mu collected all the money he had collected
. Regarding Gu Yinglong's question, he asked it in one breath.
Tang Jing said, "I don't know about that either."
"Is there anything else you don't know?" Chen Mu smiled.
"I'm not a god." Tang Jing spread her hands and said, "But don't you think it's weird about Gu Yinglong?" "
Everything about her is weird. Which point are you referring to?" Chen Mu said.
"How tall do you think she is?" Tang Jing asked.
"Hmm...1.4 meters?" Chen Mu boldly guessed.
"I think it's pretty much the same." Tang Jing said with a smile.
"It's indeed a bit short."
"It's not a bit, it's too short." Tang Jing said: "In high school, the average height of girls is 1.6 meters. You can see that Dong Junwei is 1.7 meters tall. Zhao Xiaoyan is the most... petite in our class. Yes, he is also 1.52 meters tall. Even if Gu Yinglong is a freshman in high school, he is not only that tall." "Perhaps
there is some physical illness?" Chen Mu asked.
Tang Jing said: "Maybe, but that's not the problem. If there was such a short girl in the school, she would usually be very noticeable, but now, let alone us, even Lu Shanshan and the others, who are in the same grade, are also attracted to her. Don't you think it's strange that you have no impression?"
"It does seem a bit..."
Although Tang Jing's words are reasonable, they are not absolute. Chen Mu was a little confused and lowered his voice: "You mean, she Not from our school?"
"I just have speculation in this regard." Tang Jing spread her hands.
"But her school uniform does fit her very well."
"Yeah." Tang Jing was noncommittal.
"If it's not from our school, then it's from No. 1 Middle School?" Chen Mu was slightly surprised, and after a while he said one word: "Spy?" Tang Jing said with a smile: "It's not like spies, how did they know that we were going to rob the car
? "
Maybe it was originally prepared for Qingbei?"
"It wouldn't be necessary to send a whole truck of supplies and two combat-type superpowers, and didn't the first one successfully defeat Qingbei?" Tang Jing said.
"Then I don't understand." Chen Mu was helpless.
Tang Jing was silent for a moment and said: "Gu Yinglong should not be in danger, but... there may be some problems with the origin, maybe it is related to supernatural powers..." "
You can't guess it, and I don't have any ideas."
Chen Muxiao Said: "But it's hard for such a harmless little girl to feel defensive. If she is really a spy, it would be really embarrassing..."
"You think too much."
Tang Jing smiled and rolled her eyes at him. Then she seemed to think of something. After thinking for a moment, she was about to speak when her face suddenly changed.
Chen Mu watched helplessly as Tang Jing's face showed pain, and then her body tilted and fell to the ground.
