Chapter 134 If I Can Survive

"So?"

"So? What so?" Xi Renjie frowned and spoke in a low voice, "Without Mengge here, if any disaster from District 2 or District 4 comes, we will surely die, not to mention those gray world intersections that are still fully opened... District 3 is finished, these 40,000 people are finished... We are finished too.

Maintain order? Patrol the streets? Appease the people? What's the point of doing these?"

Pah——

Xi Renjie slammed the wine glass on the table, breathing heavily, his red eyes staring at Chen Ling, like a lion about to get drunk.

"Chen Ling, are you afraid of death?"

"..." Chen Ling paused for a moment, "Actually, not that afraid."

"Okay."

Xi Renjie took out the second wine glass from the drawer, poured the white wine, and directly filled it and his own wine glass, and pushed it in front of Chen Ling.

"After drinking this glass of wine, let's go to the south to stop the disaster in District 4... Even if we die, we will die on the battlefield."

Chen Ling looked down at the white wine in front of him, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"You called me here to drink with you... and then go to die together?"

"That's right." Xi Renjie slowly raised the wine glass in front of him, hanging it in the air, waiting for Chen Ling's response, "Are you... willing to go with me?"

Chen Ling glanced at him, then held the wine glass with one hand, shook it gently, and touched the wine glass in Xi Renjie's hand.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

After saying that, he drank the wine in the glass.

Seeing this, Xi Renjie's eyes flashed with complexity, and then he also drank the wine in his glass.

The hot liquor entered his stomach, almost burning through Xi Renjie's chest. He put down the wine glass ferociously, but found that Chen Ling's figure in front of the desk had begun to shake unconsciously, and his eyes were blurred.

"Brother Chen Ling, you don't seem to be able to drink much?" Xi Renjie said slowly.

Plop——

Chen Ling's eyes closed completely, and he fell limply on the chair behind him, falling into a coma.

Seeing this scene, Xi Renjie's face was not surprised at all. He put the wine glass in his hand back on the table with a complicated expression...

"Chen Ling... You know, I am really jealous of you and Mengge." Xi Renjie said to himself, "You have innate talents. In front of you, Aurora City doesn't seem so high... You can trample it at will for the so-called spirit."

"But I am a mediocre person who can't touch the wall no matter how hard I try... I can accept my mediocrity, be a good law enforcement officer, handle the relationship with the people well, not be greedy, not arrogant... But no matter how much I play Mengge, I can't become him."

"As a law enforcement officer, I can't refuse the order of Aurora City and I shouldn't refuse it; I stand at the intersection, on the left is death and mediocrity, on the right is the future and the Aurora City I dream of... There is no reason for me to die here meaninglessly."

Xi Renjie took a deep breath, took out a pistol from his arms, pointed the black muzzle at Chen Ling who was sleeping on the chair... Pull the trigger!

Click——

The gun barrel made a light sound, but there was no bullet in the gun.

Xi Renjie slowly put down the gun, and looked at the sleeping Chen Ling with a complicated look.

"I don't know why Aurora City said you are a heretic, and I don't know why they must kill you, but you have fought side by side with me and fought for District 3... After this shot, you are dead, and died on the battlefield fighting against the disaster."

"I'm leaving, I wish you good luck... if you can survive the disaster."

After the voice fell, he walked past Chen Ling, pushed open the back door of the headquarters, and disappeared in the thick fog.

In the dead silent hall, Chen Ling's cold eyes slowly opened.

He glanced at the spilled wine on the ground, turned his eyes to the direction where Xi Renjie left, and fell into deep thought...

Since entering the headquarters, Chen Ling has been using [Secret Eyes] to observe Xi Renjie's micro-expressions and every move. He found that Xi Renjie's hands were shaking slightly. Combined with the sudden increase in audience expectations, Chen Ling naturally noticed something was wrong. After using a trick to disguise the wine he had poured, he pretended to be unconscious and fell on the chair.

He didn't know what Xi Renjie had put in his glass, but it was definitely right to fall. Even if he really misunderstood, he could also say that he was really drunk and fell down in one gulp.

Only in this way could he test Chen Renjie's purpose.

To his surprise, Xi Renjie did not kill him. Rather than targeting him, Xi Renjie did all this to give himself a "result".

Of course, in fact, for Xi Renjie, it didn't matter whether he killed Chen Ling personally or not. Even if he didn't do it, Chen Ling couldn't survive this disaster attack, and the final result would be the same.

"Aurora City thinks I'm a heretic... and wants to kill me?" Chen Ling's eyes were filled with confusion, "How could this happen? What went wrong?" Chen Ling racked his brains, but he didn't know how he was exposed. He could only sigh and stand up to walk out.

From what Xi Renjie said just now, Aurora City has contacted him and promised him to enter Aurora City...

"Things seem to be getting more and more interesting." Chen Ling muttered to himself.

...

"Brother Jie!"

Not long after Xi Renjie walked out of the back door, Tan Ming quickly rushed over.

Tan Ming smelled the alcohol on Xi Renjie and was slightly startled. When he looked up, he saw a drunken face and asked immediately, "Brother Jie... did you really kill Chen Ling?"

"Yeah." Xi Renjie nodded and did not continue to dwell on this issue. "How are the people on the list?"

"I have informed them that they have to go back and pack their luggage and wait for the station to gather."

Xi Renjie paused, and anger appeared in his drunken eyes.

"Pack your luggage? It's so late, and you still need luggage? Do they know what the situation is now?!"

"I told them, but they also saved up some belongings with great difficulty. They think it's a pity to bury them in the gray world with District 3. After all, they have to live in Aurora City... But I gave a death order. Everyone must be at the station within fifteen minutes. There should be five or six minutes left now. When we get there, they should have arrived. There is actually not much impact on time..." Tan Ming explained hurriedly.

"Is this a matter of time?!" Xi Renjie stared at Tan Ming, and after a long pause, he cursed out four words fiercely,

"A bunch of idiots!!"
