"Since the captain thinks so highly of me, I can't pretend to be stupid." Yougege took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice: "Captain, from your own perspective, why do you think these people suddenly
Attack you?"
Qin Huan said without hesitation: "I guess it was just to stop me from going to Xiongan."
Hearing this, Yougege shook his head and said, "That's not right."
"Isn't it right?" Qin Huan was puzzled.
"The order that the captain was urgently recalled and sent to Xiongan by his superiors should be a single line of communication with a very high level of confidentiality, right?"
"Um."
"That's it. Since no one knows where you are going, captain, why would they target your team accurately and act recklessly?"
"Hiss..." Qin Huan's skill at pretending to be stupid is also top-notch. In fact, when he kicked the mechanical puppet to pieces, he was already thinking about who exposed his whereabouts?
The Shanghai shelter only knew that their group was going for supplies, but did not know where they were going next. Moreover, after the incident, Qin Huan immediately reported the situation to the headquarters and requested the headquarters to report to surrounding shelters
A warning was issued. As a result, feedback from the headquarters stated that only Vault 7 had a vicious attack, and the six surrounding shelters were all very quiet.
Looking at it this way, it doesn't make sense to say that the other party doesn't know what Qin Huan is going to do.
But how did they know this news?
Thinking of this, Qin Huan said seriously: "Yes... I have always had a single line of communication with the headquarters. Apart from the person who directly issued orders to me, only a few people at the highest level of the headquarters are aware of my movements. Could it be that...
…”
"No need to doubt the higher-ups." Yougege said calmly.
Qin Huan was startled: "Huh? Why?"
Yougege added: "Because if the enemy has really penetrated into the top management of the first central axis, then we will definitely lose this game, so there is no need to doubt the top management."
When Qin Huan heard this, he immediately felt a chill running down his spine. Yes.
If the top executives of the First Central Axis, who are coordinating the world's efforts to respond to the disaster, are infiltrated by people with evil intentions, then there will really be no fun.
"Then... why..."
"Because someone in your team let it slip early, including you, the captain. Didn't you also reveal your whereabouts to me, Shang Yuxuan...oh no...and that mechanical puppet?"
Qin Huan's face suddenly turned red. He had indeed leaked secrets, and he was also very aware of the virtues of his brothers. As the boss, he himself failed to set an example, let alone his subordinates.
But the question is...even if they accidentally leaked it, why would the other party choose to take action inside Vault 7 instead of waiting for them to set off and then intercept and kill them on the road?
Yougege’s explanation was: “Maybe it’s because I was in a hurry.”
"What?"
"I think these people have infiltrated not only inside Vault 7, but also in most important shelters around the world. They should have been carefully planned before the disaster occurred. They were just unifying
Some unexpected situations will inevitably occur before the operation... For example, the landmines buried in Shelter 7 were originally intended to respond to the Xiongan New Area, but before they officially launched the operation deployment, they discovered you, and they
We can only take action here, instead of sneaking out to intercept and kill you." You Gege's analysis was clear and logical, and Qin Huan was fascinated by it without even realizing it.
But when he heard the last part, he waved his hand and said: "Hey! No! It's a bit exaggerated to only do it in the shelter. I personally feel that the success rate of killing us outside is much higher, and the identity of our own personnel will not be exposed.
, so...there must be another reason for this."
Yougege said unhurriedly: "If they insist on doing something here, their purpose is not just to kill you, but they may also have considered that they can use this method to hold you back after the attack fails? Or,
How about holding back all the deployments of your superiors?"
Qin Huan was shocked when he heard this, and looked at You Gege in shock.
Yougege slowly picked up the tea cup and took a sip. She looked like a pitiful little girl lying on the hospital bed. But what she just said suddenly woke up Qin Huan.
yes.
The purpose of attacking them is not just to kill them.
Even if the chance of success is higher if they take action outside, there is still a possibility of failure... If the interception fails, their plan to prevent the First Central Axis from sending personnel to rescue Xiongan will be shelved. But if they take action inside the shelter, they will
It's different... It seems to be a very stupid decision, and it even cost the lives of many militants who were buried deep here. But... after such a commotion, all major shelters will be informed that they are entering an emergency.
In the process of checking the shelters, Xiongan may have been abandoned by the senior management and left to fend for itself.
After all, the Beacon Council is considering the future of all mankind, and they must be rational enough.
After understanding this level, Qin Huan nodded seriously: "I understand... It turns out that it's not that they are stupid, but that I am too stupid."
Hearing this, Yougege suddenly laughed: "Captain, don't say that. I'm just talking casually, I can't take it seriously."
Qin Huan shook his head. He looked at You Gege seriously and said: "Gege, you are so humble! If you hadn't pointed me out, I might still be stuck in the alley before and couldn't get out... Hiss... But...
Now they have cut off an arm to forcefully prevent us from going to Xiongan New Area, and then..."
"Next, they will shrink their strength as much as possible, and at the same time throw out some people who are not firm enough for us to clean up. As for the Xiongan New Area... I think their deliberate delay is definitely better than simply invading, occupying and taking refuge.
There is a bigger conspiracy, so... instead of staying in Shanghai, the captain might as well rush to Xiongan quietly and give them a surprise!" After speaking, You Gege looked out the window and said: "The wind has stopped outside now, but if
The eye of the storm is still there, and it will still rain sooner or later... Captain, you have to make a decision early."
Qin Huan did not expect that You Gege would say these words. He was just suspicious of You Gege at first and wanted to take the opportunity to visit her to test it out. After being awakened by her words, he also felt that You Gege would tell him how to get there next.
Investigate the real culprit behind the scenes. But now...
"You mean...my battlefield isn't here at all?"
Yougege nodded: "Never, captain, the highest level of the Beacon Council can rest assured that dozens of you will go to support Xiongan. You must be outstanding, but if you have nothing to do with your strength, you will stop here.
It would be stupid to go to Shanghai and become Sherlock Holmes."
Qin Huan didn't get angry after being called stupid by You Gege. Instead, he was stunned for a moment and then burst into laughter.
Yougege was also laughing, a gentle smile.
After laughing for a while, Qin Huan rushed to the door and said: "Okay, you two come in."
Outside the house, two special service team members carrying silent soundproofing devices and wearing mechanical exoskeletons numbered with the heavenly stems and earthly branches slowly walked in. Yougege glanced at them and said lightly: "The captain said he came to visit me.
So you don’t trust me?"
The old man in the bed next door suddenly said quietly: "I'm the one who worries about you. You can't blame Qin Huan."
Yougege was shocked when he heard this. He had no idea that this sick old man was the real one who came to test Yougege.
When Qin Huan saw that the old man had spoken, he immediately stood up and stood aside respectfully. You Gege frowned and looked at the old man. The name on his bedside was Xiang Bei. It seemed to be a fake.
The old man pulled out the various tubes on his chest, sat up and looked at Yougege and said, "Little girl, I've always seen you look familiar. Have we... met somewhere before?"
Yougege said blankly: "I'm sorry... I have no impression of you at all."
The old man smiled and waved his hand: "As I get older, my appearance has changed... Hey... Qin Huan, Gege has shown you the way, why are you still standing here like a telegraph pole? Why don't you pack up and leave quickly?"
Qin Huan was shocked when he heard this and immediately saluted: "Yes!"
After saying that, the captain of the special service team left the ward with his men.
After watching them leave, Yougege looked at the old man in front of him and said, "You are..."
"Guan Dehou." The old man slowly said a name that made Yougege almost lose his temper in shock. This was because this name was so familiar to her.
But……
More than a hundred years have passed, how could Guan Dehou still be alive?
But Yougege had to stay calm. She nodded and said, "Grandpa Guan, you..."
"You don't have to think too much, I'm just a bad old man in Vault 7, but I still have some prestige on the First Central Axis, so they are still willing to listen to what I have to say." Guan Dehou coughed and got out.
He poured himself a glass of water and asked, "What about you, girl? From the way you talk, you don't sound like a waiter."
Yougege smiled awkwardly, and then said after hesitating: "Actually... I also worked in the first central axis for a period of time before entering the shelter, but I was always a peripheral staff. After the disaster, my voucher code was
It was officially cancelled, and I don’t know the specific reason...so I had to start over, just...become a waiter."
What Yougege said fits perfectly.
Guan Dehou nodded and said thoughtfully: "Well...that's it...no wonder I think you look familiar...and you have the same name as a person I met many years ago, but you are much prettier than her."
, and much more cheerful.”
Yougege laughed along with him, but he was already a little worried in his heart.
After returning to the bed and sitting down, Guan Dehou said: "Girl, have you ever thought about... returning to the first central axis to work?"
Yougege was stunned when he heard this: "Am I still okay?"
Guan Dehou smiled: "What is allowed or not possible? I guess that the first central axis canceled the peripheral personnel voucher code back then mainly because they were worried that you would use your private rights to bring people into the shelter who should not enter the shelter...
Now, as long as my old man says a word, you will be able to restore your identity immediately, and even... you will have many more privileges."
Yougege was a little excited after hearing this, but she quickly calmed down. She would not believe this good thing, so she said quietly: "Grandpa Guan, you want me to return, don't you want me to be responsible for the investigation?"
Is there the real culprit behind this attack?”
Guan Dehou raised his eyebrows: "Hey! You girl is so smart and enviable."
But You Gege rolled his eyes inwardly and said to himself: "You are such an old man but you don't have three hundred taels of silver here. Who can't tell that?"
However, in terms of face, You Gege refused with some embarrassment: "Grandpa Guan... you think too highly of me. I am just an afterthought. In fact, I have no real ability. You suddenly asked me to take on such a heavy burden. I can't do it."
Can’t get up.”
Guan Dehou said: "Don't worry, girl, I'm not letting you stand at the front. In fact, I have already arranged the specific person in charge before I plan to let you return, but... I don't trust anyone now, but you are the one who
I feel very comfortable, and I don’t have that deep-thinking feeling... So... I want to set up another case analysis team in addition to the investigation team. As long as you agree, I will hand over the next information from the investigation team to you for analysis.
, I believe that with your intelligence, you will be able to help a lot, so... don’t refuse! My old man has a hard knee and rarely asks for help!"
"Is the knee stiff because of the injury?" Yougege complained secretly. Although his face was still embarrassed, he finally did not refuse.
She agreed, but at the same time she made another request.
"Grandpa Guan, um... I can help you analyze it, but... in the future, can you only let me see the information and not let me have direct contact with you and your people?"
Guan Dehou was stunned for a moment and then asked: "Oh? Why?"
Yougege said: "Think about it, I'm just a weak woman. It's okay to make plans and use my little brains, but if I get involved too deeply... I'm afraid I don't have enough skills to deal with those people."
Guan Dehou understood: "Oh... that's right... that's okay... I understand. You... are still the waiter, and I am still a bad old man lying on the hospital bed. We don't know each other...
But I will arrange for two people to protect you in private, so don’t worry."
Yougege was shocked when he heard this. He wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it for a moment, he smiled and said, "Thank you then."
"Hey, you're welcome..." Guan Dehou lay down on the hospital bed again. He took a deep breath and said, "Girl... you are really lucky to be able to survive this time... but someone as lucky as you is too lucky."
Less...do you know what I mean?"
Yougege nodded deeply, pursed his lips and said, "I understand."
"Haha, okay, that's great. It would be better if there were more young people like you..."
Yu Gege didn't understand this sentence.
A week later, Yougege was discharged from the hospital.
No one came to pick her up, and no one came to visit her during this period. Yougege, who had long been accustomed to being alone, simply packed up her things and limped home.
The wound on her thigh was still aching, and any violent movement would make her excruciating pain. Fortunately, modern medical technology was already very advanced, and gunshot wounds like this healed very quickly. All you had to do was pay attention to it.
Returning to his residence, Yougege looked at the empty four-person room, feeling a little sad.
Thinking about it, when she first arrived here a few months ago, the dormitory was very lively. Everyone was a girl and basically talked about everything. Even though Yougege didn't want to join them, she would still be infected. Plus there are people here
The two "sisters" usually take good care of her... Sometimes Yougege really feels that this is her final destination.
However...how long has it been?
Things are different and people are different.
The administrator was a little surprised to see You Gege back. She asked: "Ge Ge? Are you still alive?"
Yougege rolled his eyes inwardly and thought to himself: 'What are these words?'
But when she turned around, she smiled and said, "Well, I was injured a little and stayed in the hospital for a while."
The administrator patted his chest: "Oh my god! I thought you...hey...come on, baby, let auntie give you a hug."
Being held in the aunt's arms was unexpectedly warm, and Yuge pursed her lips.
After a long while, the administrator's aunt said: "It's all over... look at it, and besides... I have packed up all your things for you and left them where they are. If you are alone at night and are afraid, come and see Auntie. Auntie
be with you."
Yougege smiled gratefully: "Yes."
The humane aunt left, and Yougege entered the house and closed the door.
As soon as I sat down on the bed and was about to lie down, I heard a "clatter" from the toilet!
Yougege was startled, immediately sat upright and looked towards the toilet.
After a while, a girl who had just washed her hair and was wearing a half-worn military uniform came out. She was not surprised at all when she saw You Gege, and just said: "Hey, do you have a towel here?"
Yougege saw the other person clearly, it was the girl who rescued her that day with a sniper rifle on her back.
She looked to be in her twenties, but there were many scars on her face and body, especially the eye-catching scratches on her right arm, which looked like they had been caused by fighting wild beasts.
Yougege immediately went to his box and took out a towel and handed it over.
The girl wiped her head, and then asked with a smile: "I was looking for something to eat at your place just now, but unfortunately I didn't find anything. Did I not find the right place?"
Yougege didn't have much favorable impressions of people she knew well, but after all, he was her savior, so it was hard for Yougege to say anything. She got up and took out a box from under the bed, then opened it and said, "Here, it's all here."
The girl's eyes lit up when she looked at the box full of instant rations. As if she had been hungry for days and nights, she grabbed a pack of compressed biscuits, opened them and poured them into her mouth.
Upon seeing this, Yougege hurriedly went to pour some water, and then handed it to the girl when she was choking: "Eat slowly, there is still a lot."
The girl glanced at You Gege gratefully, drank the water and said, "My name is Momosawa Hanako, what's yours?"
Yougege was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Yougege."
"You Ge Ge? Hey, that's an interesting name. Can I call you Ge Ge from now on?"
Yougege nodded: "Then I'll call you Hanako?"
Momosawa Hanako, whose youthfulness had long faded, smiled: "Of course!"
