Doomsday: with unlimited warehouse system

Chapter 232 A Little HeartlessUpon hearing Danny’s words, Monica’s beautiful eyebrows immediately furrowed again. In recent times, Danny’s behavior had changed drastically, and she couldn’t help but notice. At first, she attributed it to Abraham’s death, but gradually she realized that Danny seemed like a different person. He had become ruthless and cold, a far cry from the gentle Danny she remembered. Now, he had gone ahead and recruited a new team member without her consent, which filled her with strong discontent.

With only the two of them left in the team, even if they decided to recruit a new member, it should be a decision made together. If the new recruit turned out to be problematic, it could jeopardize the entire team. Monica didn’t want to see Abraham’s efforts destroyed.

”Danny, don’t forget the teachings Abraham left for both of us,” Monica tried to bring up Abraham’s memory.

Listening to Monica’s words, Danny pondered for a moment before nodding slowly. ”You’re not wrong. But now that Abraham is gone, does it still make sense to mention him?”

Danny stood up and reached for the bag of chips on the table, but as if remembering something, he withdrew his hand.

ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm ”With our team being short-handed, can you guarantee our squad’s survival in dangerous situations?” Danny stared at Monica, his tone becoming colder, and then he looked at Louisa.

”Louisa is someone I carefully selected, and her strength is remarkable. She can perfectly fill the gap in our team. Besides, in this team, men have the final say. You better stay at home,” Danny said, a faint smile once again appearing on his face.

”You...” Monica was infuriated by his words. What did he mean by saying men have the final say in this team? Apparently, Danny had been treating her like a mere decoration all along, and this made Monica feel extremely downcast. She wanted to say something, but then she noticed Louisa walking towards her.

Monica turned her head to look at Louisa, and her expression gradually grew serious. In that instant, she sensed a strong and peculiar aura from Louisa. It was different from a typical esper’s aura, and Monica felt both familiar and unfamiliar with it. As she pondered this, Louisa approached her, and her lips slightly parted.

”Hello, I’m Louisa. Nice to meet you,” Louisa spoke in a cold and rigid manner, almost like a newly-learned baby.

Monica glanced at her, feeling cautious about this woman named Louisa. She suddenly sensed that there might be some secrets hidden within her.

”We’re not familiar,” Monica said coldly before leaving the base. In that moment, she felt the urge to escape from there. She felt like there was no longer a place for her in the team. As Monica walked away, Louisa’s expression remained mechanical and rigid.

”That girl really doesn’t know her place,” Danny mumbled to himself as he sat on the sofa, looking out at the horizon.

After leaving the base, Monica walked on the streets for a while and decided to go to David’s base once again. She felt a true sense of security when she was with David. Without hesitation, she headed towards David’s base.

A dozen minutes later, Monica stood in front of the base’s gate. As she looked at the still closed alloy steel door, she let out a sigh of frustration. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, a figure approached.

”Who’s there?” Monica immediately drew the dagger from her waist and cautiously stared at the approaching figure.

”Do you know David?” Seeing Monica hesitate for a moment, the figure continued to walk towards her and soon stepped out of the shadow into the dim light. The man was dressed in black combat gear and had a crew cut. His face looked resolute, and it was apparent he was an esper. Following closely behind him was a young girl with a knife hanging from her waist, adorned with a cute little cat accessory. These two were Duane and Shirley.

Seeing them, Monica still didn’t lower the dagger in her hand. The sense of danger Danny had brought made her question everyone in this world, except David.

”Whether I know him or not is none of your business,” Monica didn’t directly answer Duane’s question and simply walked past him. As Monica left, Duane shook his head in puzzlement.

”She’s a strange woman, Captain. I wonder if the little cat is still in David’s home? It’s been so long, and they haven’t come back. The poor cat must be so lonely here. How about we take it back with us and return it when they come back?” Shirley looked at David’s base with joy, suggesting the idea to Duane.

Hearing Shirley mention the little cat, Duane couldn’t help but shake his head helplessly. Ever since Shirley saw Cola, she couldn’t forget the little cat. She often pestered Duane to come and see it at David’s place.

The last time they came was due to Shirley’s persistence. However, when they arrived, David had already left with the team. Helpless, Shirley had to return with disappointment. But not even a day had passed, and she was already thinking about it again, insisting on dragging Duane to see it once more, with the same result as last time.

Duane looked at the closed base, his eyes showing a hint of surprise. As he personally constructed the base for their team, he knew it very well. Seeing the solid and powerful appearance of David’s base, Duane curiously reached out and touched it.

”The hardness... is terrifying!” Duane felt the powerful energy emitted by the diamond base, astonished by what he had discovered. He had never expected that David would build the base to such an extent. It was like an ark in the apocalypse, and this further revealed David’s formidable strength. Ordinary people wouldn’t even dream of having a base of this level, let alone build one, not to mention its defensive capabilities.

Shirley also curiously approached and placed her hand on the base’s wall. An expression of shock immediately appeared on her face. ”Captain, does David have superpowers? How can he possess such a base! When he comes back, you have to ask him to build one for our Phoenix Rising team too.”

Hearing Shirley’s innocent words, Duane’s mouth twitched. Wow! She’s already betraying her Captain for a base? Duane instantly thought that Shirley was somewhat heartless, but just a little.

However, Duane decided to have a good conversation with David when he returned. He believed that the secret of the Second Red Light might rely on this young man.
