Chapter 30
Less than two hours?
Even if the human body’s sense of time was prolonged due to the difficult environment, they shouldn’t have only been in that rainforest for two hours.
Ji Yushi said, “I saw the time when we left. It was indeed less than two hours ago.”
But he quickly remembered the magnetic field here and the compass whose pointer spun around and added, “Could it be a problem with the clock’s speed?”
Song Qinglan’s nose was tall and lips were thin. He continued to point Shen Mian at Big Beard, “It shouldn’t be. Although I didn’t hold back when I punched him, it shouldn’t be to the extent of still bleeding a day or two later.”
Perhaps it was because he understood that the two were discussing the problem of time, Big Beard shouted out some more nonsense again and appeared to be a little anxious.
Unfortunately no one could understand what he said.
After experiencing PU-31 and all the strange happenings there, the two no longer perceived time the way they did before. Faced with this situation, they didn’t panic.
Ji Yushi placed the alarm clock down, “I have an idea.”
He boldly surmised, “It is very likely that the time flow here is not the same as the time flow in the rainforest. If that is the case…..Then it wasn’t an accident that we were sucked here and it is in fact related to the mission.
For the new mission they had unlocked this time, the mission objective was —- Repairer of Time.
In Tianqiong’s transfer station, the team had discussed the mission objective and had interacted with Tianqiong’s voice system.
But despite the so-called awakening of Tianqiong’s self-awareness, it was ultimately still just a system and had its own way of thinking so the information it could give was limited. As a result, they were not able to gain any more useful information.
Song Qinglan noticed that Ji Yushi’s complexion didn’t look very good and his body was still wet, so he said, “Let’s analyse it later. Advisor Ji, we have now flipped the situation around.”
Facing the anxious bear-like Big Beard, Song Qinglan curled up the corners of his lips slightly. He knew that Big Beard couldn’t understand, yet he deliberately expressed the meaning of his words clearly, “We can have a hot shower first, warm up our clothes and then comfortably discuss this matter while we slowly eat up Big Beard’s stock.”
Big Beard’s eyes widened with vigilance, “Gulukagajijifalahe?”
Song Qinglan moved the muzzle, gesturing for Big Beard to move.
Big Beard blew away his beard, “Lawukaguda!!”
Song Qinglan ignored him, “I’m sure you know what I mean.”
This seventh squad captain who had always been rebellious escorted Big Beard into the corner with his gun like a full-blown gangster. He then found an iron chain like the one Big Beard had used on them and tied Big Beard to a pipe.
Big Beard was almost about to pass out with anger. He almost tore apart the chain!
*
Song Qinglan’s arrangement was right. They really needed to eat and fix themselves up right now.
The structure of the space capsule was almost a hundred times larger than that of their capsule and it had its own self-preservation system. Ji Yushi walked through several corridors and passed through several hatches before he finally saw the tightly shut outer hatch.
The outer hatch seemed to not have been opened in a very long time.
Ji Yushi entered the bathroom, took off his wet black combat uniform and placed it into the steamer to clean and dry.
He then stood under the showerhead and rinsed himself from head to toe with hot water.
Hot steam fogged up the glass. The hot water washed away all the uncomfortable dampness on his skin as well as all the unknown bacteria and filth he may have acquired from the mountain of garbage and the dirty blanket. Water flowed through every part of his body before finally reaching his ankle.
After taking a shower, Ji Yushi wiped himself down.
He put the black combat uniform which had been steam cleaned on again and saw Song Qinglan leaning against the wall in the corridor outside as soon as he walked out of the bathroom. Song Qinglan had his head lowered and was looking down at a small black and white game console in his hands.
It was Ji Yushi’s game console.
After he came here, it was taken away by Big Beard along with his communicator. Song Qinglan had clearly somehow managed to get it back.
Although he had given it to Ji Yushi last time in PU-31, they were in a situation where they even had difficulty protecting themselves in the big cycle so it was naturally not possible for Ji Yushi to use it to “distract himself”.
A faint chill could be felt from Song Qinglan’s body. There was even a small blade of grass from the rainforest stuck behind his earlobe.
He seemed to be waiting for Ji Yushi to finish washing up.
When Ji Yushi passed by, the last block on the screen fell and the words “Game Over” just happened to appear.
There was only one bathroom here, but there were many compartments.
Ji Yushi asked, “Cap Song, why aren’t you going in?”
If it was another team member, Song Qinglan would certainly not wait outside. It was just taking off some clothes and having a shower and they’re all rough men so what was there to be shy about?
“Going now.” Song Qinglan however didn’t answer that question and only returned the game console to Ji Yushi, “The high scores on the leader board are all yours?”
It was an unbelievably high score.
Ji Yushi received the game console, “Some were played by others when I’m not at home.”
Ji Minyue especially wanted to beat his score and would never give up even if he was about to die.
When he wasn’t around, it was played by someone at home. It seems that intelligent people all hang around with other intelligent people.
It was hard to imagine how clingy the other person was.
Song Qinglan raised a brow, “Then you’re all very good.”
Song Qinglan entered the bathroom, reselected a cubicle and washed himself thoroughly from head to toe.
During this process, he suddenly understood why Ji Yushi was reluctant to stay in the seventh squad. It wasn’t that he was still holding a grudge —- It was likely because of his boyfriend. Although Jiang City and Ning City are not too far apart, it was still more than an hour’s drive. Guardians are usually busy with their job and with training so commuting from there wouldn’t be an option.
Becoming a Guardian would indeed have an impact on one’s relationship.
Not to mention Song Qinglan, even Duan Wen who was in his early thirties was still a single dog. Li Chun couldn’t be blamed for being such a scum flirting with every girl he meets. Just imagine if your other half is often away for one or two months for their missions. No girl would be able to stand it.
Although Ji Yushi and his partner are both male, it was still no different from heterosexual couples.
With that, it was understandable.
The mission this time came unexpected. They were really unlucky.
As the saying goes, it was better to demolish a temple than destroy a relationship.
Song Qinglan felt that if Ji Yushi was really unwilling to stay when they return, he shouldn’t force it.
When Song Qinglan got out after showering, Ji Yushi was already eating canned food.
To Song Qinglan’s surprise, Big Beard had already been released by Ji Yushi. At this very moment, he sat opposite Ji Yushi like a small mountain, blowing his beard and gesturing while saying something while Ji Yushi sat cross-legged on the sofa biting onto a disposable spoon with a trace of confusion in his usually clear eyes.
“What are you doing?” Song Qinglan asked.
Hearing his voice, the two raised their heads.
Seeing him come out, Big Beard immediately staggered to his feet and tried to find something to use to fight the tall traverser again.
Ji Yushi on the other hand was a little stunned.
Song Qinglan had shaved off all the stubble.
After seeing the messy looking Song Qinglan for so long, Ji Yushi seemed to have forgotten that the other party was actually a very eye-catching person so when he saw his original handsome appearance again, he felt like it was his first time seeing it.
Song Qinglan carried his gun with him at all times. As soon as Big Beard found a fry pan, Song Qinglan raised Shen Mian and narrowed his eyes.
Big Beard threw the pan away and sat down in irritation, “~*@#!!”
There was a photo album and a pen sitting between Ji Yushi and Big Beard.
There were some drawings on the photo album as well as some strange symbols. It looked like Big Beard’s writing.
Are these two communicating?
Song Qinglan also sat down cross-legged. He placed Shen Mian on his lap and picked up a can of canned food seemingly casually, but he was in fact always on guard against that big fool.
Ji Yushi was eating canned fruit. He ate very slowly, “He has something to tell us. It should be about this place.”
Song Qinglan took the photo album and looked at it.
It had to be said that Big Beard’s drawing skills were simply terrible. The group of suspicious objects were difficult to distinguish and there were a bunch of nonsense symbols written next to them.
Seeing them looking at his drawings, Big Beard pointed at each of the symbols and then at himself. His blue eyes blinked a few times, and he said a few words they didn’t understand.
Of course, this exchange was mainly for Ji Yushi.
