He went home this time mainly to check if there was any theft and to clean up. After all, he hadn't lived in it for a long time, but since it was a large three-story house, Colin didn't even clean the first floor after working all night.
, and finally called the cleaning company to send several people to finish it in one day.
Finally, he checked to see if there were any holes or anything like that in the house. Although Colin thought he was quite courageous, he still had no idea about supernatural and thriller events.
Colin's entire life savings were invested in this house, and he was quite obsessed with it.
The people from the Countermeasures Bureau sent Colin the location, but it was not the headquarters of the Countermeasures Bureau. It was still at the tavern next to the Los Angeles Police Department. There should be someone waiting for them at the tavern, Colin thought.
When he drove the car into the underground garage, he saw Eugene's car and she had already arrived.
Because it was early in the morning, the pub was not open, and Eugene, dressed as a punk, was standing outside the door, playing with his mobile phone.
"This is indeed your defense mechanism. When facing a strange environment, you will become a little girl."
Colin complained that it's not that this alternative style of dressing up doesn't look good, it's just that he doesn't like heavy metal or other pop culture.
"Wow, are all divorced men as mean as you?"
When Eugene is angry, isn't it just hurting each other?
"Maybe so. Also, usually only the chainsaw killers in plasma films can drive pickup trucks. You know, the kind of scene in the countryside, with ears and tongues soaked in formalin in jars and stuff like that.
"
Colin started complaining about Eugene's taste.
"Oh my God! I encountered a supernatural incident! I didn't dare to go home. I stayed all night in an Internet cafe or found a hotel to sleep."
Eugene crossed his hands on his shoulders, as if frightened.
"I..."
Colin was so angry that he laughed. It had to be said that this time Eugene won.
Just as the two were arguing, a black car stopped outside the pub and the window slowly rolled down.
"This is Agent Colin and Agent Eugene. Please get in the car. Because the location needs to be highly confidential, sending it through communication software may be intercepted by hackers from SCT or other organizations. Please understand."
A middle-aged man in casual clothes in the driver's seat spoke to the two of them in a nonchalant manner.
The two of them had no objections, got into the car, and sat in the back seat, because the co-pilot also had a terrifying man who was armed to the teeth and always on guard. There was no good skin on his face, either from knife wounds or claw marks left by wild beasts.
…
…
after an hour.
The car entered the mountain tunnel, where there was no signal for mobile phones at all, and the only lighting tool for the 12-kilometer-long tunnel was a line of warm yellow LED lights.
After traveling 5 kilometers into the tunnel, the vehicle turned into an emergency passage.
During the construction of all tunnels, evacuation issues under special circumstances will be taken into consideration. Especially for such ultra-long tunnels, hundreds of evacuation locations will be set up.
But what confused Colin and Eugene was that after entering the emergency passage, they did not leave the mountain. They were still in the tunnel, and the light was getting darker and darker. They could only see the road vaguely, and the green light was extremely uncomfortable.
.
Then came a maze-like fork in the road, going round and round, which almost made Colin and Eugene dizzy, let alone the driver.
The light is getting weaker and weaker, as if entering a different space in the darkness.
"Considering confidentiality issues, whether you are entering or leaving the base, you need to be transported by someone, and you need a designated transportation tool. If an unknown vehicle is scanned, some set up mechanisms will be activated and it will be destroyed indiscriminately."
The driver reminded him extremely seriously.
Eugene swallowed, this level of confidentiality was a bit too perverted.
After nearly 20 minutes of detouring through many forks, we finally arrived at our destination. The driver signaled Eugene and Colin to get out of the car, but the security personnel with the claw marks of wild beasts did not move.
Then the driver pushed open a fire door and entered into a small machine room with an old-fashioned elevator. The red lighting above and the rusty facilities around it made the two feel a little uneasy.
"I can only send you here, I have no right to enter the base."
"I believe you will be surprised. This place was originally part of the Alliance's top secret plan. It was a preparation base for nuclear counterattacks after the territory was destroyed by nuclear weapons. But this time the crisis far exceeded that, so it was activated in advance.
, as long as you take the elevator, you can reach the headquarters of Section 11."
"Farewell. In addition, thank you very much. My wife works at the stock exchange. Without you, I can't imagine what would happen. I offer my highest respect here."
After saying this, the driver bowed to the two of them very sincerely, and then drove away.
Colin Eugene was left facing him in the computer room.
"It's fucking bluffing."
Colin lit up a cigarette and took a puff. He had never seen this scene before. The cell phone showed that he was outside the service area and there was a cross on the signal grid.
Eugene also took a cigarette from Colin's cigarette case and smoked it.
"I used to watch those kind of spy movies, you know." Eugene swallowed his breath and continued: "I thought the headquarters would be behind the hidden door of the antique shop and clock shop. After opening a wooden door, there is a new world of high technology.
, now it seems that I am too stupid and have far underestimated the abilities of these official guys."
"No wonder Gray is still running around as the general person in charge. Who the hell wants to stay in such a ghost place?"
Colin glanced at the computer room facilities and red lights nearby, which gave him a very eerie feeling. He would rather live in his haunted ldk apartment than in a place like this.
"Then let's... go down?"
After Eugene took a few long puffs of his cigarette, she didn't really want to press the button for the elevator.
Colin stamped out the cigarette butt and slapped him.
The iron gate of the elevator slowly opened, and then there was an infrared scanning instrument inside, which scanned the two people's bodies from beginning to end.
As if the authentication was successful, the light changed from red to green, and the two dared to go inside.
Colin pressed the button again, and the iron gate of the elevator slowly closed. Then the sound of the engine starting became more and more harsh. Compared with the elevator, it was more like some large equipment of a water conservancy project facility, and the rumble tortured the eardrums.
The elevator began to sink slowly, and the speed became faster and faster, until the two of them even felt a little weightless, and their heads became slightly dizzy.
After sinking like this for a minute, it still hadn't reached its destination.
"I have heard of some underground laboratories before. They seem to be studying dark matter or something. In order to avoid interference from cosmic particles, they are built very deep underground, even three or four kilometers underground."
Colin remembered a documentary he watched before.
"Didn't realize you were a fucking rocket scientist."
In order to relieve the depression, Eugene joked that this feeling of falling was really uncomfortable and he didn't know what was waiting for him.
It wasn't until the elevator had been descending for five minutes that it slowly stopped and the iron gate slowly opened.
The underground facility could see the situation above through the equipment, and upon learning of the two's arrival, someone greeted them outside the door.
"Agent Colin, Agent Eugene, welcome to the Headquarters of Section 11 of the Countermeasures Bureau."
