The woman who calls herself [Yao Hua] is distributing food to everyone...it's all synthetic high-calorie ready-to-eat food.
Most of the people in this maintenance room are researchers wearing this uniform, and a small number are guards. Together with Jiankang, who is the deputy captain, the guards have a total of eleven people.
"You actually opened that floodgate. Do you know how much trouble this will cause us?"
Vice Captain Jiankang stared at Da Liu and others fiercely.
"Now that things have come to this, don't say that these things are not worth it." Captain Miyuki sneered: "Have I settled the score with you for your group's frame-up against me?"
Vice Captain Jiankang's expression was gloomy and uncertain. As a member of the [Mandrill] team, he naturally knew the contents of the original plan tonight. It's just that God's calculations are not as good as those of humans, and the development of things has been out of control.
Not only did the plan fail to be implemented, even the captain [Mandrill] did not come back after he was dispatched...most likely he would never come back.
The emergence of the maze further hindered communication, and the invasion of an unknown monster made the research institute even worse... Jiankang led the combat team and fought hard before barely killing the terrifying monster.
Blocking the outside, he hurriedly took some survivors from the institute and temporarily huddled in this maintenance room.
"Damn it!"
Vice Captain Jiankang cursed angrily and quickly discussed it with the team members... The temporary suspension of fighting between the two parties does not mean that there will be a reconciliation - as for cooperation, the situation is unclear.
…
There was like a clear river between the two parties. The not-so-large preparation room contained a total of fifty or sixty people, so it was naturally crowded.
Vice Captain Jiankang and the team members were studying something here. The woman who claimed to be [Yaohua] suddenly crossed the non-existent [River] and came to Captain Miyuki.
"Can we chat?" the woman asked in a low voice, which was quite polite.
Captain Miyuki glanced at Xiao Luo SIR subconsciously... and received an encouraging response, then nodded.
"Who are you and why do you know me?" The woman... [Yao Hua] from the Second Research Institute thought for a moment and said, "And Ye Qiu, you also called out his name."
Ye Qiu...Captain Miyuki will naturally not forget it. After all, Ye Qiu was with them half a day ago. As for [Yaohua], Captain Miyuki doesn't know how to explain it.
In fact, she had never really met [Yao Hua]. The reason why she could recognize him at a glance was because Xiao Luo Sir helped Ye Qiu draw a sketch before.
It was so similar that Captain Miyuki recognized it the first time he saw it.
"Due to some special reasons, I am investigating a case." Captain Miyuki said after careful consideration: "It involves you...and Ye Qiu, so I investigated your information. I recognized you at first glance because
I’ve read the information before.”
"Case? Are you really law enforcement?" The Second Research Institute [Yaohua] frowned lightly, "Is it really just like this? The feeling you gave me just now is that this is not the first time I have met Ye Qiu... As for
Me, you seem to be more frightened than surprised. Am I that scared?"
--fear?
Captain Miyuki only felt creepy at this moment... It would be fine if she met [Yaohua] who was supposed to be missing here, but this Ye Qiu...
They came in from outside, but Ye Qiu from the Second Research Institute has always been here.
"Does this Ye Qiu have any relatives?" Captain Miyuki asked thoughtfully.
[Yao Hua] frowned, but still said slowly: "As far as I know, Ye Qiu's parents have been gone since he was a child... As for whether he has any other relatives, I honestly don't know. You are law enforcement,
Shouldn’t this kind of human relationship have already been investigated?”
Captain Miyuki was stunned and said subconsciously: "Hasn't he told you this... With your relationship, how can he still hide it?"
"Relationship?" [Yaohua] looked suspicious, "Miyuki... Captain, right? Did you misunderstand anything during the investigation? Ye Qiu and I are just ordinary colleagues. On weekdays,
The contact is actually not that much.”
"What did you say?" Captain Miyuki suddenly frowned, "But just now I saw that he didn't treat you like an ordinary colleague, right?"
[Yao Hua] said rather helplessly: "In fact, I have no control over what others do to me... At least here, I didn't lie."
Captain Miyuki stared closely at the other party's eyes, and all she saw was calmness and strangeness - she was not lying.
Captain Miyuki, who has many years of interrogation experience, immediately made a judgment in his mind, but it felt absurd - if it was like what [Yaohua] said, then what happened to the affectionate words from the Ye Qiu they met before... It was all fiction.
of?
"What case are you... investigating?" [Yaohua] saw the other party's silence and couldn't help but continue to ask.
"Dr. Yaohua, please stay away from these people." The deputy health captain suddenly came over and grabbed [Yaohua]'s arm, "You are not allowed to leak the information here to outsiders, otherwise I have the right to temporarily confine you.
Please pay attention."
"It's quite majestic." Doctor [Yaohua] smiled lightly, "Let's think about how to deal with the monster that broke in. I hope you won't be accused of insufficient protection in the end."
"We will naturally do our part." Vice Captain Jiankang also looked helpless and made a gesture of invitation.
[Yaohua] shrugged and walked slowly to the corner. She just rested against the wall for a while, not even planning to sit down... so that she could move around later.
Vice Captain Jiankang then glanced coldly at Captain Miyuki and the others, and returned to his team members without saying a word... The [River] that divided the two sides was flowing again.
…
"You...you heard everything, right?"
Captain Miyuki looked at SIR Xiao Luo with a complicated expression. She really needed someone to help sort out what happened here.
Xiao Luo SIR thought for a while and said: "When something appears in front of us in a way that transcends common sense, there is no need to rush and question it. Maybe we can try to accept it first."
Captain Miyuki frowned, "You mean...the Ye Qiu here and the Ye Qiu we found before are both real?"
"Accept it reasonably first."
"Reasonable?" Captain Miyuki couldn't help but smile bitterly, "This matter is unreasonable in every aspect."
"This is for you." Xiao Luo SIR suddenly took out a nameplate and handed it to Captain Miyuki.
"What's this?"
[Amulet, something that can exempt you from the maze killing rules] Xiao Luo SIR took out his mobile phone, and a line of text was typed on the document: [We all have it]
"!!!"
This is so lucky!!
…
"Vice Captain, are these people really letting things go?"
The members of the combat team began to hold meetings using communicators.
Jiankang: "These people are all very strong, especially one of them. I just recognized that he is an extremely dangerous person. He once participated in the [Purple Sky Cup] competition... I still remember the one with the Human Race Void Sage.
[Luo Mo], who is almost as famous as Lin Feng?"
Team Member 1: "Hiss...it's him! Yes, it's really him! Why didn't you notice the existence of this person just now!"
The opponent was a terrifying figure with [Special Attack on Male Cultivators] who was completely opposite to Lin Xusheng. All the team members felt bad instantly... They often conducted various simulated battles in [Sky and Sky Fortress].
.
During the [Zixiao Cup], they had conducted strategic training on how to defeat the pairing of [Lin Feng] and [Luo Mo] - the result was that unless they were broken directly with a completely crushing force, there was no solution.
Team member 2: "Captain Mandrill's life or death is uncertain now, and we can't contact the fortress, let alone ask for support... Whether we can survive or not is a question. Vice-captain, I have a plan, can you see if it works?"
Vice Captain Jiankang glanced at this player who wanted to improve and nodded silently.
Team Member 2: "We can pretend to be friendly to each other... Since their combat power is extraordinary, why not use them to kill that monster?"
…
Ye Qiu slowly walked to [Yao Hua] and took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket, "Let's eat something sweet. It will make us feel better. Don't worry, someone will come to rescue us."
[Yaohua] glanced at Ye Qiu indifferently and did not accept it, "Sorry, I don't like sweets... Researcher Ye, you can keep it to yourself."
"Dr. Yaohua, do you know those people?" Ye Qiu thought for a moment and said, "They seem to have mentioned me?"
"I don't know." [Yaohua] shook her head, "You saw it just now. I didn't say a few words before I was pulled back by Deputy Captain Jiankang... Maybe you can go test it out and I'll help you.
Use cover to delay Jiankang."
"...Forget it." Ye Qiu said helplessly. Seeing that [Yaohua] was not very interested in talking to him, he walked away.
At this time, Vice Captain Jiankang suddenly walked towards the people on the other side of the river.
…
…
"Is something wrong?"
Da Liu raised his eyes expressionlessly.
In the fight just now, he was easily subdued... Vice Captain Jiankang still felt a little uncomfortable, but his aura was not weak, "I'm just not ready."
Da Liu couldn't help but sneered, and without saying anything, he stood up casually, walked a few steps, changed places, and sat down again - having a nameplate is one thing for safety, but not being exposed is another.
He even kicked Ah Fei, so it was time for him to move his position.
Jiankang pondered for a moment, then walked between Captain Miyuki and SIR Xiaoluo, and said in a deep voice: "We need to talk."
Captain Miyuki sneered: "I still have a while, but you can hold it back... Why, do you still want to start a war? I will stay with you until the end!"
Vice Captain Jiankang didn't care about Captain Miyuki. He looked at Xiaoluo SIR again and said in deep thought: "I know that this lady is wanted because she was implicated... There is no need to put the previous things here.
Tit for tat over and over again. I have a suggestion that you might want to listen to."
"It's good if we can solve the problem." Xiao Luo SIR smiled calmly.
Vice Captain Jiankang said: "I will try my best to mediate for this lady. Since she is only implicated, it is not difficult to solve it... At my level, I can definitely do this."
Captain Miyuki suddenly raised her brows, and even though she was a little angry, she still fell silent when she saw that Sir Xiao Luo remained calm.
"What about the conditions?" Xiao Luo SIR thought for a while and asked.
Deputy Captain Jiankang said: "At present, we have no support. It is difficult for me and my team members to protect the safety of these researchers. I need help. The group will not leave this place alone. We must be thinking of a way now."
Implement rescue. As long as you can join forces with me and persist until rescue arrives, I promise to report truthfully and strive to solve the problem for this lady."
"Why should I believe it?" Captain Miyuki still couldn't hold it back, "It was you who framed me, and now it's you who say you can help me solve it... Oh, I still have to kneel down and be grateful?"
"I said, there is no need to be tit for tat because of what happened before. I am just following orders." Vice Captain Jiankang said calmly: "You should think about what is best for you... help us,
It is also equivalent to helping yourselves. My promise will be effective until rescue appears. During this period, I will also restrain my subordinates and will not cause trouble for you... If you need any supplies, I will also provide them with the ability.
We will provide it to you. We just want to survive...you guys, think about it carefully."
…
After a while, Vice Captain Jiankang actually asked his team members to deliver some supplies.
Psychic weapons, potions, and supplies are not all available, but under these conditions, they are sincere enough.
Captain Miyuki couldn't help but fell into deep thought as he looked at the equipment that was even more sophisticated than what he usually used and had never even been touched.
"If possible, I really want to blow this guy's head off with one shot." Captain Miyuki skillfully picked up a modified psychic submachine gun and loaded it. "Damn it, why are their equipment so good!"
"Are you going to agree to them?" Da Liu suddenly asked.
He has been silent, but it does not mean that he is not clear about the matter... Zhao Wumian also has her intelligence channels. Although he does not know much about this matter, he still understands it. Naturally, he knows that Captain Miyuki is holding back a breath of resentment.
"I can't influence your judgment because of me." Captain Miyuki said helplessly: "I'm not as fragile as you think. The [Fire Cloud Bureau] is actually pretty good compared to other law enforcement bureaus in Lower Continent... But
It's inevitable that some bad things will happen. I'm just taking the blame, not once or twice, why don't I take administrative leave?"
Despite this, the greater the strength she holds on to the psychic submachine gun, the greater the resentment in her heart.
"Your choice is right." Da Liu said calmly, "But they may not be able to fulfill their promise to you."
"I know." Captain Miyuki said viciously, "So if he goes back on his word, I will definitely blow his head off."
Da Liu looked at Xiao Luo SIR, "What about you, I don't believe these people are qualified to negotiate terms with you. We can completely control this place with force."
Xiao Luo SIR said: "Mr. Liu, if I use this method, will you help me? They have destroyed an almost identical research institute before. I believe this research institute will also self-destruct in a similar way.
Device.”
Captain Miyuki was slightly startled - this Liu SIR seemed to be deliberately creating a rhythm, as if he wanted to see Mr. Luo take action...
She frowned and said: "Sir Liu, violent control of this place is not advisable. Unless we kill all these people, as long as one of them backstabs and makes small moves secretly, we will only be the ones who suffer... After all,
They are the home field here. But let’s not talk about the people of these combat teams, what about those researchers, do they have to kill them all?"
"I'm just giving an opinion." Da Liu said calmly: "Nothing else... I have no objection to your choice. After all, this is a conflict between you and the group. But I still can't trust this deputy captain Jiankang."
"Actually, temporary cooperation is not necessarily a bad thing." Xiao Luo SIR smiled slightly, "As long as the other party can provide sufficient conditions."
…
"Do you... agree?"
Vice Captain Jiankang didn't seem surprised that they would come to him, and he showed a look of joy.
Captain Miyuki said expressionlessly: "We can cooperate, but I have some conditions that you must agree to."
"No problem. If you have any requests, you can make them and I will try my best to satisfy them." Deputy Jiankang agreed quite simply.
Captain Miyuki said directly: "I want to know the truth about this research institute. Also, you must not stop me from investigating the researchers here. If necessary, you must ensure that they cooperate with me... In addition, I need to share the information of this research institute with you."
Control authority...I don’t want to be bombed by you again!”
"The control of the research institute cannot be shared with you." Deputy Captain Jiankang suddenly said with a stern face, "The authority belongs to our Captain Mandrill. He is currently missing. I don't have the authority you want... As for the investigation,
That’s not necessary. Regarding the contents of the institute, I can give you detailed information after the rescue arrives."
Captain Miyuki shook his head, "It seems we can't continue talking. In that case, let's each do our own thing."
"...Wait a minute, I really can't do anything about the information." Deputy Captain Jiankang gritted his teeth and said: "The management of the institute has a special system, and all the information is stored in the system, and I don't have the authority to access it.
You can ask these researchers how many questions you can ask, I don’t care, and I have the right to pretend that I don’t know, but only until rescue arrives... This is my bottom line."
Captain Miyuki glanced at Xiao Luo SIR.
Xiao Luo SIR then said: "Yes, but you have to provide the location of the system computer room."
"Understood." Vice Captain Jiankang threw out a bracelet, "This is the three-dimensional map of the research institute. It has important facilities marked on it. You can take it first. You will come in need of it. But can you go there?
, it all depends on your ability... Many places in this institute are blocked off by black walls, don’t blame me for not warning you in advance."
Da Liu suddenly asked: "Your group's technology is so powerful, isn't there any other way to communicate with the outside world?"
Vice Captain Jiankang frowned and said: "If we could, we wouldn't be trapped here. This maze is too weird. We still don't know the reason for its formation. We really..."
"Maybe there's a way."
A cold voice came suddenly.
"Dr. Yaohua?" Vice Captain Jiankang couldn't help but said in surprise and joy: "Did you think of a way?"
"I'm not sure, but I think we can give it a try." [Yaohua] said seriously, "We can make use of the research results of the institute. [Chenghuang's Power] can actually be initially stimulated by human intervention. Maybe we can ignore this maze.
blockade."
"this……"
…
…
"That's about it. I wonder if you are willing?"
Sometimes, Lin SIR really had to admire [Liu Er]'s mobility... He actually found people when he said he was looking for them, and the number far exceeded his expectation.
The men and women in front of me were almost all residents of [Infinite City] who were on the run, numbering at least thirty or forty thousand - and most of them were women.
"Needless to say, helping Mr. Xu Sheng become emperor is also self-saving! Lin Xu Sheng was born in [Huoyun City] and is the light of [Huoyun City]! I am willing to help you!"
"Yes, Lin Xusheng, please feel free to use me! And my mother!"
