After Jiang Zhongli came over, he looked at the mess on the ground and shook his head slightly, then carefully approached the window and looked downstairs.
Although he had also imagined that such a research institute that could not see light would usually be set up in a location that was easy to guess.
Most people will guess in inaccessible directions, such as an island whose location cannot be found on the map, such as the ruins of an abandoned factory, or some deep mountains and forests or Gobi beaches.
Because it is inaccessible, its whereabouts are secretive, which reduces the risk of exposure. It can also effectively avoid unexpected events, such as the escape of experimental subjects and the invasion of outsiders.
There are also some cases of concealment in the market, but that requires extremely high costs, not only the external costs of hiding the true functions, but also some unspeakable internal costs.
Compared with directly finding an inaccessible place to carry out special activities, the unnecessary cost of hiding in the city is too high, and it is really not necessary for a research institute.
After seeing the scene below, his first feeling was neither shock nor confusion, but confusion.
There was a lot of information at this glance, but he could only come out for ten minutes. Now was not a good time to discuss with Jing Shaowei. Jiang Zhongli suppressed his doubts, took two steps back, looked at the scattered glass shards on the ground, and took action.
stand up.
Sprinkling water, spraining feet, slipping, and breaking elbows. A series of actions were done smoothly, and in the end, they even simulated the arc of throwing a thermos cup by mistake.
After doing all this, Jiang Chongli stood up silently, limped back to the table, and dialed the number on duty with his watch.
After Jing Shaowei exchanged words, his mind kept thinking about the scene he just saw.
Her dormitory is on the 18th floor, and the 18 here is the 18 displayed on the elevator button. She had never thought there was any problem before, but after taking a look just now, she realized that even this insignificant dormitory floor number, the research institute was there.
Lie to her.
It is easy for people to misjudge heights when they are at high places, but such errors are relative. For people who do not often come into contact with high-rise buildings, they may judge 50 meters as 100 meters, but no one will judge the height of 50 meters.
It is judged to be 5 meters. After all, heights below 10 meters are common for ordinary people. There are many reference objects in people's memory, so there is generally no error.
Jing Shaowei's dormitory in college was located on the fifth floor. She stood by the dormitory window and looked down at a height of about 13 meters. She was very familiar with the scene she could see from this height.
The scene she just saw outside the window was only a little higher than the height she looked out of the dormitory. It might be fifteen or sixteen meters, or it might be seventeen or eighteen meters, but it could never be the 18th floor shown on the elevator.
.
According to the most common floor height, three meters per floor, there are at least more than fifty meters below the 18th floor. But Jing Shaowei is very familiar with the scene at a height of more than ten meters. She can say with certainty that the floor she is currently on is absolutely
It can't be as high as 18 floors. It can be eight floors at most. Any higher would be outrageous.
Moreover, the scene below also surprised her. She had the same idea as Jiang Zhongli before. This kind of research institute that needs to be hidden should at least have an inaccessible environment outside, but what she saw was not like that at all.
The buildings outside the window are not very high. Most of them are two or three-story buildings. There are a few five or six-story buildings here and there. They all look of an older style. The roads underneath also look very narrow. They don’t look like those in a big city.
The road doesn't even look like a city road. Two vans have to be careful when driving opposite each other to avoid scratches.
There were only a few pedestrians on the road, and everything looked normal, like a small town whose name she had never heard of. It had average economic development and an average population, but it was still a place where people could live and work in peace and contentment.
Jing Shaowei's feelings now are very difficult to describe. She feels that this scene seems quite normal, but at the same time, it feels very inconsistent.
Maybe it’s because in her eyes, the research institute and such a peaceful town just can’t go together. The research institute is about illegal crimes, murder and smuggling, shady business, serving the rich, and there is blood hidden under the exquisiteness; the small town is ordinary and ordinary
, two thousand per capita, the most serious news is who fought with whom, who cheated on whom, compared to the "big cause" of the institute, they are all trivial and trivial.
Is this the real "big hermit in the city"? But the "bustling city" in front of her is really far from what she imagined.
"The time is coming, I called the logistics, please handle it carefully." Jiang Chongli reminded.
"good."
Ten minutes were up, Jing Shaowei and Jiang Zhongli exchanged and came back. As soon as she came back, she felt the scratch on her elbow, which was hot and painful. She let out a long sigh. If there was an almanac in front of her, she would definitely be able to see what was written on it.
Inscribed with the four characters "bloody disaster".
She was attacked, broke her elbow, and had to worry about the surgery in the third group. It was really difficult for her.
After a while, two men in logistics uniforms came to the door. Jing Shaowei briefly described what had just happened and showed them his injured ankle and elbow. The two briefly checked the situation, registered and said they wanted to go back.
He replaced it with new glass and left Jing Shaowei's dormitory.
Jing Shaowei was surprised to see that the matter was handled so easily. She originally thought that the institute was so strict in preventing others from seeing the outside just to create a cage for the people inside. Now she "accidentally" broke the glass.
After seeing the scene outside the cage, it was revealed so lightly?
Shouldn't we interrogate her carefully, take photos and records, and conduct trace inspections? Shouldn't we monitor her closely in the days to come, and then gradually relax after making sure there is no suspicion?
Why do you feel that this logistics seems to be outsourced and is incompatible with the rigorous painting style of the institute?
Jiang Zhongli heard Jing Shaowei's complaints and said to her with a smile: "Maybe it is really outsourced. You just saw the outside environment. It is impossible to open a so-called company in such a place without the local interests."
A little bit involved, regardless of whether the local people know the real business of the institute, there must be a certain cooperative relationship between them."
"Think about it, if a local has certain connections in the local area and doesn't want to go out to work, but wants to have a decent, stable and easy job, would this be his first choice?"
Jing Shaowei nodded clearly: "You mean, the logistics department may not know what the research institute does. They only need to do ordinary logistics work, such as maintenance and so on? So what happened to those two people just now?
The attitude is so normal."
Jiang Chongli's affirmation contained a correction: "Maybe it's some people from the logistics department, the kind you said are outsourced. Their captain or director must be someone from the institute itself."
Jing Shaowei wanted to say something else, but there was a knock on the door. It must have been the two people who brought the glass just now. The door was unlocked, so she directly said "come in" and sat at the table to watch them change the glass.
