Chapter 362 Suspicion

After chewing for a few times, Yun Yi picked up the teacup in front of him and swallowed it with the fruit.

"The fruit of the sacred tree is a bit dry, so I like to eat it with sacred tree tea, which is especially delicious."

Lin Shi saw this and no longer hesitated. He picked up the peeled fruit and put it in his mouth and took a bite.

It was that kind of powdery and glutinous taste, and it tasted a bit like boiled but not fully cooked potatoes.

It tasted slightly sweet.

It really tasted okay.

The mental power did not increase, but it contained a weak source of power.

Lin Shi was slightly disappointed, and then relieved.

Feeling a little dry in the mouth, Lin Shi subconsciously wanted to pick up the teacup in front of him, but suddenly stopped.

Then he ate the whole fruit with a normal look, and he never touched the cup of tea.

Seeing that Lin Shi had finished eating, Yun Yi cleaned up the peel, stood up and said:

"Let's go. The sky is getting brighter, I will take you to find those people from Shashi."

Lin Shi nodded.

Suddenly he said:

"By the way, can you give me a few more of this kind of fruit?"

"Of course, this kind of fruit is what we have the most here. It has a name, called the fruit of the sacred tree."

Yun Yi took out six more sacred tree fruits from the cabinet, wrapped them in a piece of cloth and handed them to Lin Shi, who said thank you.

He followed Yun Yi and walked down the mountain again.

At this time, Yun Yi, who was walking in front, had a strange arc at the corner of his mouth in the dim light.

But Yun Yi did not see that Lin Shi, who was behind him, had a flash of murderous intent in his eyes that no one except himself would notice.

Following Yun Yi all the way down the mountain to the foot of the mountain.

Yun Yi took Lin Shi to a wooden house that looked no different from other wooden houses.

At this time, Lin Shi noticed that there was a very small number like "2323" engraved on the door frame of the wooden house.

Yun Yi knocked on the door.

There was movement from inside the door soon.

Not long after, a man wearing a down jacket and sleepy eyes opened the door.

Seeing Yun Yi, the man was surprised:

"Yun Yi... Sir?"

Yun Yi stepped aside, revealing Lin Shi behind him.

Seeing Lin Shi's unfamiliar face, the man was stunned and looked at Yun Yi in confusion.

The man in front of him was the researcher who came to Shashi this time.

After Lin Shi announced his identity, he never went to the research institute again.

These researchers who stayed in the laboratory all year round had never seen Lin Shi's current appearance.

So they didn't recognize Lin Shi.

But Lin Shi recognized at a glance that the man in front of him was one of Li Xianke's former students.

Lin Shi said directly:

"You came here, who is the captain of the team this time?"

The researcher was even more confused and said:

"Who are you?"

"I am an old friend of Lin Tianrui."

"Do you know Chief Lin?"

The researcher was shocked, but he did not doubt it and said directly:

"The leader of the team this time is Captain Qin Shuang."

It is naturally more convenient to communicate with this somewhat stupid researcher than to find Qin Shuang to understand the situation. Lin Shi then asked:

"Where does Qin Shuang live?"

"Oh, Captain Qin Shuang is over there, three houses away."

"Okay, thank you."

Lin Shi nodded to the researcher and walked towards the wooden house on the other side that the researcher pointed to just now.

Yun Yi said to the researcher:

"It's okay, you continue to rest."

The researcher nodded and closed the door.

An old voice came from the room:

"Xiao Deng, who is it?"

"Teacher, Lord Yun Yi just came and brought someone who said he was Chief Lin's friend and went to find Captain Qin Shuang."

......

Lin Shi came to the door of Qin Shuang's house and knocked.

Soon the door was opened, revealing Qin Shuang's pretty face, but it looked a little tired now.

Seeing Lin Shi, Qin Shuang's eyes widened, and his face showed shock.

It seemed that he could never have thought that Lin Shi was here.

"You!"

Qin Shuang wanted to say something excitedly, but when he glanced at Yun Yi behind Lin Shi, he changed his words:

"Brother, why are you here?!"

? ? ?

Lin Shi: Although I know there may be something wrong, why do I feel that I have been taken advantage of for no reason?

"We need to chat for a while. Thank you, Chief Yun Yi, for leading the way for me."

Lin Shi turned his head and looked at Yun Yi and said.

The meaning of the order to expel guests should not be too obvious.

Yun Yi smiled:

"Then I won't bother you. When you have considered it, you can ask the guard at the door to pass the message to me at any time."

After that, he turned around and left.

Lin Shi watched Yun Yi walk away, and then motioned Qin Shuang to go into the house and talk.

Lin Shi spoke first:

"Did you come here the day before yesterday? How did you get here?"

Qin Shuang sighed,

"Xu Nian brought us here. We..."

Qin Shuang seemed to want to say something, but his face showed hesitation and struggle.

Seeing Qin Shuang's look, Lin Shi understood.

There might be something here that prevented Qin Shuang from speaking directly.

Lin Shi stood up and said:

"Forget it, let's not talk about it for now. I just ate a little too much. Let's go out for a walk."

"Okay."

Qin Shuang followed Lin Shi out of the house, and the two walked straight to the gate of the base.

Now that the sky was bright, the guard at the gate had been replaced, and it was no longer the old Zhao that Lin Shi saw last night.

But the gate was still closed and there was no intention to open it.

The guards were two ordinary middle-aged men. When they saw Lin Shi and Qin Shuang walking towards the door, they stopped them.

"Stop! What are you doing?!"

"What? We can't go out?"

"If you want to go out, you need to get Lord Yun Yi's order, otherwise you can't go out!"

"I remember that there were people who came in and out freely yesterday." Qin Shuang said from behind.

"Today the rules have changed. Lord Yun Yi's orders are the rules of our base!"

Lin Shi narrowed his eyes slightly. He came to the base yesterday, but the base didn't allow him to go in and out today. It was hard for him not to think that this rule was aimed at him.

"I'm not a member of your base yet. Are you sure you want to stop me?"

In fact, he didn't have to go through the door.

The middle-aged man frowned and was about to say something, but his expression suddenly changed.

"Since you insist on going out, then go out. If you die outside, don't blame us for not reminding you!"

He opened the wooden door.

Lin Shi glanced at the two and walked out with Qin Shuang.

After leaving the base, Qin Shuang was about to say something, but Lin Shi interrupted her.

"Wait a minute, the scenery on that hill is better, let's go there and take a look."

This location is too close to the base. If the "sacred tree" really has spiritual power, it might be able to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two here.

Qin Shuang immediately understood what Lin Shi meant and followed Lin Shi without saying anything.

On the way, Lin Shi was holding the fruit he had asked Yun Yi for.

The two walked all the way from the deep mountains to the urban area of ​​Jiyun City before they stopped.

"Okay, there should be no problem here. Tell me, what's going on?"
