It was near the stairs of the breeding tank. Some bastard threw a key into a heavy steel cage.
This is a special key for the training center, which means a special keyhole. Even if Xie Yuan wants to pick the lock, it will take a lot of time.
In fact, the best way is to use a door-breaking bomb to break the lock... But unfortunately, this nursing home has an owner. James Marcus was the first to the last owner of this nursing home.
Director.
Since this old boy is still alive, he probably regards this place as his own territory and will not tolerate the slightest offense.
Because intense actions can easily cause estrangement and lead to hostile actions, Xie Yuan's methods are still "peaceful" until now.
Moreover, there is a hidden camera in every corner of this building. Xie Yuan also made this clear to Rebecca.
This made Rebecca feel that her privacy had been violated! However, Xie Yuan was very calm. After all, compared to the previous two groups of monitors, Rebecca and Xie Yuan were just bad guests.
Therefore, in terms of means, the two of them can only try to be more "polite".
Until the key is removed.
Because the key needs to be lifted up from the steel cage before it can be taken out, Xie Yuan originally wanted to lower the steel cage himself and take out the key, or use a wire to take out the key.
But Rebecca believes that since the "building owner" sets the agency rules, there should be no cheating.
Because under the surveillance cameras, no one knows how Marcus feels.
After being persuaded, Xie Yuan could only pry up the winch of the steel cage by himself. As the steel cage slowly lifted into the air, Rebecca also jumped into the breeding tank and took out the key from under the steel cage.
But just when Rebecca was about to climb the wall of the pool and enter the ground, an accident happened!
"Bang!" A sewer fence suddenly burst open, and a long red giant centipede suddenly rushed in.
It has long mouthparts, which are constantly dancing with teeth and claws, and at the same time, the densely packed centipedes are constantly moving.
Preparing to attack Rebecca at a speed far beyond that of an ordinary person, she was stunned by the giant centipede and stood on the spot.
"Rebecca, be careful!!!" Just because Rebecca was not prepared, it does not mean that Xie Yuan was not prepared.
After sensing the arrival of the giant biological signal, Xie Yuan took out a dagger and jammed the winch.
When the giant centipede came out with a "bang" sound, Xie Yuan was already at the edge of the pool. When the giant centipede was just about to bite Rebecca, who had no time to react...
Xie Yuan had already appeared in front of Rebecca and directly pressed against the centipede's mouthparts!
"Billy!!" Rebecca didn't expect that Billy Cohen, who was not far away just now, would now appear in front of her like the Flash!
This surprised and delighted her.
Does Billy Cohen really have super powers? Rebecca, who was grateful to Billy for saving her life, had a thought in her heart.
"Hurry back," he didn't care what to say to Rebecca. He pinched the centipede's mouthparts and pushed it down, while directly asking the police officer to go to the winch. "Listen to my command and put down the knife that is stuck in the winch."
"OK!!" Rebecca, knowing that time was not to be wasted, immediately climbed up the wall of the pool and walked to the winch.
Xie Yuan also relied on his strength to press down on the red-shelled centipede to prevent the back half of its legs from coming out.
Then he dragged the centipede's head under the steel cage and asked Rebecca to quickly pull out the dagger: "You can let go of the dagger now, hurry up."
"You're still there! Come out quickly, Billy!" Rebecca really didn't want to accidentally hurt Billy Cohen.
"Believe me, I can handle it," Xie Yuan made a relaxed expression to tell Rebecca not to worry. Looking at the centipede tails gradually coming out, Xie Yuan asked Rebecca to hurry up.
"It's now!"
"Click!" As soon as Rebecca pulled out the dagger, the handle on the winch quickly rotated, almost injuring her.
However, the steel cage immediately hit the centipede's head under the influence of gravity... and Xie Yuan himself!
"Billy!" Rebecca immediately rushed over to check and saw that Billy was already standing on the side, and the steel cage was less than an inch away from him, piercing the centipede's head.
The red-shelled centipede was completely dead.
"Don't worry about me, it's worth it even if I die here right now." Xie Yuan jumped directly to the ground, "You are still young, you have a city to save, you have to get out alive."
Rebecca really wanted to slap him, she had never seen such a bastard who didn't take himself seriously.
Although this bastard was supposed to die.
Looking at the worried Rebecca, he was worried that the winch that was rotating too fast might have hurt the little girl: "The turntable didn't hurt you, right?"
All the melancholy was finally replaced by a sigh: "I'm fine, thank you."
The puzzle-solving work still had to continue. Through a thick book in the library, I found the wings of a white statue, and then after exploration, I assembled a complete white statue of an angel.
This statue was placed on the scales of the goddess statue above the huge portrait of Dr. Marcus.
Since the scale needs to be balanced, the previous black statue of the devil is also part of the scale and needs to be assembled completely.
In fact, Xie Yuan had already thought of cheating, that is, adding some bullets to the copper plate of the black statue to make it equal to the complete white statue.
In this way, you can solve the mystery and open the mechanism.
Of course, this solution was not unexpectedly opposed by Rebecca.
One, she didn't think Marcus would tolerate this kind of behavior; two, with her talent, she didn't think she couldn't find all the answers here.
The third one is also the one who completely convinced Xie Yuan: the ultimate goal of the two of them is to defeat Dr. Marcus, and now there is a lot of information about him stored here.
You can learn more about Marcus himself, and you can also gain more insights into his weaknesses.
Diligent hard work still pays off. First of all, Xie Yuan found fuel in a lighter case he carried with him, which was considered an additional lighting device.
Secondly, I also found the iron watch needle, went to the clock machinery room, adjusted the time to 8:15, and unlocked most of the internally locked doors here.
Microfilm a found in the library and microfilm b found in the unlocked conference room were combined into a disk with "mo" written on it on the projector in the combat commander's room, and a microfilm portrait was developed at the same time.
The picture shows the coding table in the conference hall as soon as you enter on the second floor.
The two people who rushed to the conference room entered the disk and pressed the start button at the positions numbered "o" and "a" at the same time. The three doors that had been completely blocked by the sword of the armored samurai also opened.
.
"I don't know how annoying it is for researchers living in this environment!" Looking at the dazzling institutions, Xie Yuan thought that Marcus was murdered by the umbrella because this old bastard went too far.
Anyway, if it were me, I probably wouldn't be able to bear it.
However, Rebecca's ability to solve puzzles really exceeded Xie Yuan's expectations. A female academic is a female academic, and only she can solve strange puzzles with such interest and ability.
Nowadays, female academics have improved by leaps and bounds at the level of pistols and shotguns by feeding bullets, and at least they are very good at killing zombies wandering on the road.
Basically, except for the vicious animal-type mutated zombies, Rebecca took care of everything else.
In the end, Xie Yuan and Rebecca's goal was Dr. Marcus's office. It can be seen that Director Marcus is an extremely fond of chess.
His mechanism requires that the huge flag on the ground match the chess game on his desk in order to unlock it.
The smart Rebecca accepted the challenge and quickly obtained the things locked on the desk - the fragments of the "Devil" statue hidden in the book and his diary.
Assemble it with the remaining pieces of the devil statue you originally obtained to get a complete devil statue.
"Huh! It's finally solved! This Marcus... tsk tsk tsk" Xie Yuan almost wanted to curse, but fortunately he remembered that the surveillance network was in the hands of Director Marcus at the moment, so he stopped abruptly.
.
"Okay, okay, now it's all untied, we can go down to the second floor," Rebecca quickly comforted Xie Yuan, "While we're down, we still have to walk on the road and study the documents we found!"
Looking at the scales that were finally balanced again, and then watching the huge portrait of Marcus falling down, revealing a doorway leading to the underground.
Xie Yuan sincerely hopes for Marcus at this moment: "I hope you can fall into the abyss like your painting!"
