Weird asylum, you're taking in a human like me?

Chapter 413

The deputy commander said as he walked out.

When he reached the door, he grabbed the door handle with one hand and turned his head to the guard who was still in the room and said:

"He will stay here tonight. At the same time, strengthen the defense here. Be sure to keep an eye on him."

"I don't want any more accidents. Do you understand me?"

After receiving the order, the guard saluted in response.

After the deputy commander's footsteps went away, the guard took a vicious look at Yi Hao who was still sitting in the chair.

He said in a cold tone:

"Be honest!"

"The deputy commander is easy to talk to, but I'm not so easy to talk to!"

Hearing this, Yi Hao looked up and rolled his eyes at him, and then said jokingly:

"After all, I am still a brigadier general now. It seems inappropriate for you to talk to me like this, right?"

The guard narrowed his eyes when he heard this.

Although Yi Hao was joking, he was also telling the truth.

So he had to snort coldly and left here.

Yi Hao didn't care what happened outside.

He leaned back in his chair and fell into deep thought.

…………

On the other side.

Shadow saw the soldiers coming and going outside the window, and he also noticed something was wrong.

So he picked up the office communicator on the table.

"Guard, bring me a pack of cigarettes."

Soon, the door was knocked.

A fully armed soldier walked in.

He saluted Shadow first, then took out the cigarette in his tactical pocket.

As Shadow took the cigarette, the soldier saluted again, then turned around and prepared to leave.

At this time, Shadow called him.

"Wait a minute, sit down and smoke a cigarette before you go."

The soldier turned around and saw Shadow's smiling face, and Lu Xiao sitting in the office chair with his eyes closed.

He hesitated, but finally chose to obey Shadow's order.

Shadow picked up the cigarette and patted it lightly on the back of his hand, then took out a cigarette and handed it to the guard first.

The guard felt a little flattered, and he quickly took the cigarette with both hands.

Then Shadow picked up the lighter and lit the cigarette for him.

This set of moves made the guard soldier feel a little unreal.

Shadow smiled, and then lit a cigarette for himself.

Neither of them spoke, but just smoked one by one.

After a while, the cigarette burned out.

When the soldier was about to leave, Shadow patted him on the shoulder and said:

"I remember your last name is Li, right?"

Although the guard soldier was a little surprised, he nodded.

Because Shadow was not here all year round, there was no guard specially assigned to him.

So he was temporarily arranged to serve as a guard.

Logically speaking, Shadow should not know him.

Before he could respond, Shadow pointed to the nearest chair with a smile and said:

"Thank you for your hard work, sit down and take a rest."

"Smoke two more cigarettes with me."

Guard: "Chief...I."

Shadow interrupted him, still smiling:

"Just take it as my order."

Hearing this, the guard had to sit down.

Shadow handed him a cigarette again.

This time, before Shadow could light it for him, the guard took out a lighter from somewhere.

With a light "click".

Shadow's eyes fell on the flame, and his expression was a little strange:

"Good boy, it seems that you smoke a lot."

The guard smiled awkwardly and said:

"Chief, let me light it for you."

Shadow smiled and raised his hand to point at the other party, but he did not mean to refuse.

After a long puff of smoke, Shadow continued to say with a smile:

"Xiao Li, you don't have to be so reserved."

"I believe you can see that I came to you just to ask you something."

Hearing this, the guard hurriedly responded:

"Just tell me, Chief. I will tell you everything I know."

Shadow patted his trouser legs with the hand holding the cigarette, and then said to the guard with a smile:

"I was just woken up by the alarm, and I don't know what happened outside."

"Can you tell me in detail?"

Hearing this, the guard said with a sigh.

"A guard team was collectively killed."

"It should be that the officer they were responsible for guarding was about to desert."

After hearing the guard's words, Shadow was stunned for only half a second.

Then he connected this matter with Yi Hao.

He groaned for a moment, and said with a puzzled tone:

"Which officer did this?"

The guard slowly exhaled a puff of cigarette, and said in a puzzled tone:

"Who else could it be except him."

"The man has been caught, and the deputy commander is interrogating him."Shadow nodded, and then his expression became sad.

"Why do you think he is a deserter?"

The guard hesitated for a moment, then turned his head and looked at Lu Xiao, who had his legs crossed on the desk.

He lowered his voice and said:

"Some people say that he lied about military intelligence and was exposed."

"So I guess he should be preparing to escape for fear of crime."

Hearing this, Shadow smiled dumbly and said:

"Okay, I roughly understand what happened."

After saying that, he inserted the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray.

Then he handed the remaining half of the pack of cigarettes in his hand to the guard and said:

"Take this, smoke sparingly."

"If you are discovered, don't say I gave it to you."

"Otherwise, Lao Zhang will come to nag me again, saying that I took the lead in disrupting military discipline."

The guard smiled and nodded, and then hid the cigarette close to his body.

After doing all this, he saluted Shadow.

"Then, Chief, I will go back to my post first."

"If there is anything, just tell me at any time!"

Shadow nodded and waved, saying, "Go."

After the guards left, Lu Xiao, who had been lying on the chair with his eyes closed, opened his eyes.

After he put his legs down, he looked at Shadow and said,

"Why did the victim run away?"

Shadow did not answer immediately, but pinched his chin and fell into deep thought.

After a moment, he said in a serious tone,

"It should not be him who did this."

"I guess someone killed the guard and wanted to take him away from here."

Lu Xiao blinked and said,

"Who could it be?"

Shadow began to pace back and forth in the room.

After a while.

The noise coming from outside the window was much smaller.

It seemed that the matter had been resolved.

At this time, Shadow seemed to have thought of something.

He said in a deep voice:

"I just deduced the direction of the matter."

"Since he is going to escape from here, as a qualified sacrifice, the possibility of being caught is not too great."

"So the victim must have been taken away by someone."

"But at the last moment, he chose to be caught deliberately."

"He should want to convey some information to me through this action."

"I guess he is doubting the identity of the person who took him away."
