Chapter 157 I want to go in!
"How come? Everyone has a mother."
"Um."
"Who is your mother then?"
"I don't know, but I know that mom will never abandon Alice, just like dad!" Alice hugged Su Ming's thighs and smiled happily.
Xia Xiaoyu was stunned, as if she understood something. The abandonment Alice mentioned was probably the time at the Fear Staircase.
It seems that she can only be a sister. Now that the terrifying staircase has disappeared, she can no longer verify her true feelings for Alice.
And even if the Staircase of Fear was still there, and it might happen again, she would still stop there like she did then, unable to take a single step forward.
Xia Xiaoyu straightened up. Su Ming and Sylvie had just finished their conversation.
"What did the minister say?" Xia Xiaoyu asked.
"She said that the other dimension might affect people's sanity, so let's take Alice with us."
Su Ming touched Alice's head, wondering if the other space could replicate Isabella's method last time. If so, the difficulty might be further reduced.
"What are you worried about? You weren't nervous during the last S-level mission, but you are nervous this time." Xia Xiaoyu said slowly, "Don't worry, it's okay. We will definitely be able to successfully conquer this weirdness this time!"
"Xiao Yu, don't be too optimistic. You are too relaxed now." Su Ming reminded.
"Really?" Xia Xiaoyu frowned and lowered her head to reflect on her feelings. After a while, she raised her head again with a more serious expression. "It's true that one success does not mean success every time. Compatibility issues can also cause fluctuations in the success rate."
"The last sentence doesn't sound like something you would say." Su Ming glanced at Xia Xiaoyu's profile .
"The captain often says this kind of thing." Xia Xiaoyu replied.
Su Ming nodded, turned to look at Lin Fei, and asked, "When do we set off?"
"Wait, wait a minute Flora." Lin Fei said.
Hearing this, Su Ming frowned and asked in disbelief: "Flora? She's coming too?"
"Yes."
Su Ming was silent, he was very confused.
Because he knew that Flora's original purpose of joining the Investigation Bureau was to marry her, and she had no intention of risking her life to eradicate monsters, so she should not participate in such a dangerous monster crusade. If she was forced to join, she would more likely resign, after all, she still had a younger brother.
"Sorry, I'm late." Flora walked out of the crowd, looking a little dazed.
"Flora, are you sure you want to go with us?" Su Ming asked.
"Yeah... I think so." Flora nodded absentmindedly.
Su Ming frowned, approached Flora, and asked softly, "Why don't you resign?"
At this time, Flora's expression changed slightly. She stayed still for a while, shook her head, and replied: "I'll tell you when I go in."
Seeing Flora's look, Su Ming knew that she was determined to defeat this monster, so he didn't say anything more. Lin Fei prepared luggage for Su Ming and others. In addition to dry food and water, there were also many spare batteries and portable video recorders.
He told Su Ming that after entering, every new discovery should be recorded immediately with the video recorder as evidence. After conquering the monster, these evidences would be able to prove his contribution.
Apart from that, he said something else here and there, all trivial details. After explaining these, they were taken to the area of white fog.
The white fog area centered on the gym, when viewed from a distance, can only see a square outline. The thick white fog is almost like the powder sprayed out by a fire extinguisher. At a distance of a little further, the white fog is slightly lighter in color, like ordinary morning mist.
The mist at the edge moves back and forth regularly, in and out like breathing.
Su Ming stood in the distance, staring at this strange area, his heartbeat gradually accelerating. His intuition told him that the fog ahead was very dangerous. This strong sense of crisis was something he had never experienced before.
His scalp was tingling, but his five senses were sharper than ever, as if his body was using all its sensory organs to desperately guard against the white fog.
Su Ming couldn't help but want to get away from here. Before entering the Black Gate, he had almost no sense of crisis, but this time it appeared.
This strong sense of crisis was only experienced during the rain in the subway alien space.
His intuition told him not to go in! It was very dangerous in there!
The risk of this mission was so high that Su Ming almost wanted to give up, but he had another vague intuition that told him that he could not let the white fog continue to expand!
And the intensity is comparable to that sense of warning!
This is a dilemma. Going in would be life-threatening, but if nothing is done, it would also be life-threatening.
Su Ming could go in by himself and choose to deal with this monster, but doing so would risk dying in there.
He could also choose to stay outside and wait for other strong men to deal with this weirdness.
Now, there are two paths before him and he has to choose one.
He stared at the white fog, thinking silently. He was not thinking about how to choose, but how to prepare.
It is not his character to passively wait for others to rescue him. Self-rescue is much more reliable than passive waiting. Of course he has to go in, but the question is whether he can do something before going in to increase his success rate.
Want more people to come in?
Su Ming asked himself this question in his heart , but he was not guided by his intuition.
Su Ming asked himself the second question: If I take Xia Xiaoyu in, will Xia Xiaoyu’s life be in danger?
Definitely.
Will she die then?
This time, Super Intuition did not respond.
Su Ming had a clearer understanding of the conditions for activating his super intuition. When he was being chased by gangs in Sanhe Street, he asked a lot of questions and received certain instructions. But now, his super intuition did not respond at all.
If you think about it, super intuition will not react to things that change a lot in the future.
In other words, bringing people in might make the situation better, but it might also make the situation worse. Xia Xiaoyu's life would definitely be in danger if she went in, but whether she would die was not certain.
"Xiaoyu, don't go in this time." Su Ming said.
"Why?" Xia Xiaoyu asked in surprise.
"It's very dangerous in here."
"It's very dangerous. I have to go in. How can I stay outside if you go in? One more person means more strength." Xia Xiaoyu said nonchalantly.
"Please, just listen to me this time." Su Ming sighed helplessly.
"No, I must go in. I'm worried about you being alone."
"You can't go in."
"No, I want to follow you."
"I said no!" Su Ming said loudly.
Xia Xiaoyu was so frightened that she took a step back, but then she pressed forward again and said stubbornly, "I want to go in... unless you don't want to go in either!"
Su Ming turned his head and looked back at the white fog with mixed feelings.
At this moment, he hoped that his super intuition could give him some guidance, telling him whether he should bring Xia Xiaoyu in, but his super intuition completely ignored the issue that he cared about most, and just kept giving him strong stimulation, letting him know how dangerous this white fog was.
Su Ming knew very well that if he went in, Xia Xiaoyu would go in no matter what, and no one could stop her.
"Why do you treat me like this?" Xia Xiaoyu lowered her head, her voice sounding self-deprecating, "Do you know that this makes me very sad?"
Su Ming was stunned for a moment, then calmed down and explained seriously: "This time it's very dangerous. If you go in, you will only hinder me."
He deliberately used the word "hold back" to discourage Xia Xiaoyu from following him, but Xia Xiaoyu stubbornly said:
"I won't hold you back."
"Really, this time is different from the previous ones, this time..."
"When have I ever held you back?" Xia Xiaoyu frowned and clenched her fists tightly.
Su Ming remained silent, but she raised her head with a stubborn and resolute look in her eyes.
She said in a stronger tone than ever before, "At the subway station, I left when you asked me to. I also helped a lot in the black door! I have never held you back! ... So, so you can't say that I will hold you back this time."
After she finished speaking, her eyes turned red. She lowered her head, staring at Su Ming's feet, and made up her mind to follow Su Ming.
Seeing Xia Xiaoyu like this, Su Ming felt very uncomfortable. He didn't want Xia Xiaoyu to take risks with him, but he also wanted Xia Xiaoyu to stay with him.
Su Ming was silent for a long time, turned his head to look in the direction of the white fog again, and sighed heavily.
"Got it, let's go together."
Xia Xiaoyu said "hmm" softly and silently took Su Ming's hand... She wanted to be with him, no matter what.
Soon, Arthur and his partner Liu Feiyun arrived.
As soon as Arthur arrived at the scene, Su Ming said to him: "Arthur, after we go in, let's work together. I feel this will be a very dangerous mission."
Arthur was stunned for a moment and looked at Su Ming in disbelief.
He couldn't figure out Su Ming's thoughts. This time he and Su Ming were competitors, so why did Su Ming want to cooperate with him?
Is it a sign of weakness to actively offer him cooperation?
No matter what, Arthur would not cooperate with the other party, but now with so many people watching, refusing to cooperate would make him look small-minded, so he said: "We will cooperate with each other when the time comes."
Su Ming was stunned for a moment. He could tell that this was just the other party's perfunctory response. He had no intention of working with him to overcome this weird idea.
However, it is also possible that he is not willing to agree immediately when he is outside, and perhaps he will agree after he goes inside.
"Arthur, can you give me a day to prepare?" Su Ming asked.
Arthur laughed mockingly. He looked at Su Ming in confusion and asked, "No, why do we need another day to prepare? You are not really scared, are you? If this disaster is not eliminated in one day, the harm will expand. Many people have already died because of this weirdness."
"I think this weirdness is very dangerous. We need to be more prepared." Su Ming said seriously.
Arthur shook his head, took Liu Feiyun and walked into the white fog, slowly disappearing from everyone's sight.
