The helicopter is noisy, and there are headsets for passengers on board, but the size is not suitable for pugs to wear, and the dog's hearing is much sharper than that of humans.

After getting off the plane and changing the car, Huang Hailin was still driving, and Wang Xinran took him to sit in the back seat.

Wu Zhongyuan didn't try to escape again, there was no point in escaping here, so he could only wait until he went to the headquarters to make plans.

On the way, Wang Xinran and Huang Hailin did not talk, and after more than an hour, the car stopped, this is a military restricted area located at the foot of the mountain, but the sign of the 18th branch is not hanging on the office building, but the Red Star Ordnance Research Institute.

The office building needs to be swiped to enter, the office building has five floors, there are elevators on the left and right sides, the two took him to the elevator on the right, there is no downward button in the elevator, but the elevator goes down directly after swiping the card.

In a minute, maybe a minute and a half, the elevator stopped, the elevator door opened, and in front of it was a metal corridor more than ten meters long, what kind of metal is not clear, but the role should be X-ray safety check.

There was a large guardhouse at the end of the hallway, there were two guards outside, and there were many small cabinets with combination locks inside, and the two put their guns into their own cabinets, and then led him out of the corridor and into the work area.

The underground space is much larger than Wu Zhongyuan imagined, the elevator is located in the middle area, a large number of rooms are distributed in a ring around the elevator, roughly estimated, there are at least seventy or eighty rooms of different sizes, covering a total area of about fifty acres.

Unlike modern research institutes, the facilities here are not very modern, but rather a bit old, and the rooms are made of caves of various sizes, some with transparent doors, while others have completely sealed doors with combination locks on the sides.

At this time, it was already more than nine o'clock in the evening, there was no one in the circular corridor, the night shift staff were in different rooms, and the next process was similar to being imprisoned and hospitalized.

Then it's time to take pictures, from different angles, and all parts are taken.

In the end, he took a bath and disinfected to make sure that he did not carry any virus and that there was no disease except for malnutrition, so he was handed over to Wang Xinran and Huang Hailin, who were waiting outside the door.

The procedures of the 18th sub-bureau are similar to those in the locality, they are all about who arrests and who interrogates them, but the two did not interrogate him, but only managed to ask him some things related to Lu Jiahui, and the way of questioning was mostly multiple-choice questions, and he could respond as long as he nodded and shook his head, the purpose was to confirm whether he recognized some of the items used by Lu Jiahui before his death, and whether he remembered some things that Lu Jiahui experienced before his death.

There is surveillance in the place where he was questioned, Wu Zhongyuan didn't dare to reveal his identity, and he didn't have to answer all questions about the two, he didn't have long contact with Lu Jiahui, and he didn't know some things, but he was able to select Lu Jiahui from many photos, and he could also distinguish Lu Jiahui's voice, he could also answer a few questions related to underwater archaeology correctly, and he could also roughly select the colleagues of the 18th Bureau who were mixed in the photos of many ordinary people.

After more than an hour of communication, integrating all aspects of data, the two finally came to a conclusion that the degree of suspicion and consistency reached 90%.

This is a high degree of agreement, and the next step is to conduct a more detailed investigation, including more in-depth communication, and to retrieve the previous movement trajectory of this pug, so as to determine where the baja has been before, and finally determine when and where Lu Jiahui's soul possessed this pug.

Inquiries and exchanges are mainly based on Huang Hailin, supplemented by Wang Xinran, most of the time it is Huang Hailin who is communicating with him, Wang Xinran seems a little absent-minded, and most of the time he is in a daze.

The communication came to an end temporarily, Wang Xinran took over and took him to Lu Jiahui's residence before his death, because Lu Jiahui's sacrifice was not long, her dormitory has not been assigned to others for the time being, except for some important personal belongings transferred to the family, other things are left here.

Wu Zhongyuan had no intention of observing Lu Jiahui's residence, and after entering the door, he began to look left and right, looking for something that could be used to write.

Seeing that he was behaving abnormally, Wang Xinran guessed that he wanted to write, so he helped him remove the cap of the pen and find another piece of paper.

The dog's paws can't grasp the pen, can only be held with his mouth, tilting his head to write is very awkward, trying a few times, can't write the words, so the horizontal bite becomes vertical.

Before the word "I" was written, Huang Hailin walked in from outside, "There is a clue." ”

Wang Xinran was originally squatting next to Wu Zhongyuan, and when he heard Huang Hailin's words, he stood up and reached out to take the few pieces of paper handed over by Huang Hailin.

Huang Hailin said, "This epitaph is currently in a municipal museum in Hubei Province, according to the text above, the owner of the tomb has been wearing a piece of white jade in the shape of the shape of the tomb before his death, and he was buried in the tomb as a burial object after his death, but this tomb has been stolen and excavated, and it may take a lot of work to find it." ”

Wang Xinran glanced at Huang Hailin, looked at the pieces of paper one by one, sighed and shook his head.

Huang Hailin said, "Don't be discouraged, this tomb has not been stolen and dug for a long time, it is roughly estimated that it should be between ten and twenty years, and there are other burial goods stolen along with that piece of white jade, we can start looking for it from this aspect." ”

Wang Xinran shook his head, handed the pages to Huang Hailin, then reached out for his cigarette, found that the cigarette case was empty, and turned around and left Lu Jiahui's residence.

Huang Hailin smiled and beckoned to Wu Zhongyuan and led him out of the room.

Wang happily walked a few dozen meters to the right and opened another room.

The smell of cigarettes remained in the room, as well as a change of clothes, both denim and military uniforms, military uniforms with epaulettes and the rank of captain.

Wang happily took out a cigarette from the bedside, took out one and lit it.

"There is no record of the specific situation in the database," Mr. Huang said, "I'll help you for a few days, and you can take the time to go to Hubei." ”

Wang Xinran shook his head, "It's useless." ”

Huang Hailin did not answer.

Wang Xinran took a deep puff of his cigarette and slowly exhaled it, "You should know that even if we find the remaining eight, we won't be able to activate that formation." ”

"Not necessarily, maybe ......"

Wang Xinran shook his head, "He used nine spirit stones to activate the formation that day, one of them is still brand new, there are only fifteen warriors carrying spirit stones in total, seven of the nine spirit stones he used belong to these warriors, and the remaining eight are very old, and the energy contained is very small, even if they are all found, they will not be able to activate the formation." ”

After Wang Xinran finished speaking, Huang Hailin said, "The underwater humidity is too heavy, and the nine black meteorites are all attached to moss and dirt, and the energy required to activate the formation may be reduced after cleaning up, and we are located here more than two hundred meters underground, which is easier to induce the underground magnetic field than the underwater environment in which the meteorite was originally located." ”

"Do you believe what you said?" Wang Xinran turned his head to look at Huang Hailin.

Huang Hailin smiled, "It doesn't matter if I believe it or not, it's enough for you to believe it." ”

Wang Xinran smiled bitterly.

Huang Hailin said, "We have found two, and we can't give up halfway." ”

"Do you know you're taking a risk?" Wang Xinran asked in a low voice.

"Yes, but didn't we come out of Lop Nur alive? Huang Hailin said with a smile.

"That's not what I mean," Wang Xinran lowered his voice, "Do you really think I don't know what you exchanged for the spirit stone in her hand?"

Huang Hailin pouted and smiled, "There is no evidence, don't talk nonsense." ”

The two did not talk for a long time, Wang Xinran sat on the edge of the bed and smoked, and Huang Hailin stood by the door against the wall.

From the conversation between the two, Wu Zhongyuan discovered a lot of things, one, that teleportation formation had been moved here by the Eighteenth Branch.

Second, during the period when he left, Huang Hailin accompanied Wang Xinran to Lop Nur, and that day from the Sanxingdui underground, Sanhu once told him that there was a spirit stone in the Lop Nur area, but Wang Xinran didn't know about it at that time, and Sanhu read the memory in Zhao Ying's mind.

Third, Huang Hailin had been in contact with Zhao Ying, Zhao Ying still had a spirit stone in his hand, Huang Hailin probably used something that Zhao Ying was interested in to exchange for this spirit stone, and the clue that there was a spirit stone in the Lop Nur area should also be what Zhao Ying told him.

Fourth, Huang Hailin likes Wang Xinran, otherwise it would be impossible to risk his life to accompany her to Lop Nur, let alone violate the principle of discipline to exchange spirit stones with Zhao Ying with things that should not be used, who is Zhao Ying, a spy.

After a while, Wang happily snuffed out his cigarette and said, "Go back to sleep." ”

Huang Hailin shook the pieces of paper in his hand, "Do you go or do I go?"

Wang Xinran shook his head, "No need to go." ”

Huang Hailin still wanted to speak, but Wang Xinran preemptively said, "Go back to sleep, I'm tired." ”

"Okay, you rest first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow. Huang Hailin turned to leave.

After Huang Hailin left, Wang Xinran turned his head to look at him, then took out a cigarette again and lit one.

After a few puffs, Wang Xinran took out the pen and paper again and tried to let Wu Zhongyuan write.

Wu Zhongyuan looked up at Wang Xinran, and didn't open his mouth to bite the pen she handed over, when Huang Hailin left before, Wang Xinran tilted his head and glanced at him, that look was very complicated, apologetic, grateful, blamed, contradictory, and regretful,

Wu Zhongyuan can understand all these emotions, but one of them makes him very uncomfortable in his heart, that is, contradiction, Wang Xinran looked at Huang Hailin with contradictions in her eyes, indicating that she was struggling with whether to accept Huang Hailin.

Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan didn't open his mouth, Wang Xinran was puzzled and handed it again.

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and ran to the corner and lay down, he was sure that as long as Wang Xinran knew that he was back, he would definitely follow him, but he was not sure if he was right to reveal his identity.

He couldn't say what he felt in his heart now, there was always a little bit of loss, but he never complained about Wang Xinran, because during the time he left, Wang Xinran had been trying to find the spirit stone and wanted to go to him. During this period, Huang Hailin gave her a lot of help, and Huang Hailin had previously said, 'Didn't we come out of Lop Nur alive', which indicates that the two went to Lop Nur to find the spirit stone and went through nine deaths. And Huang Hailin did not hesitate to violate discipline and make mistakes, and exchanged the spirit stone in her hand with Zhao Ying, just to help Wang Xinran, hoping that Wang Xinran could achieve his wish.

He is a man, he knows what kind of situation a man will do this, friendship is not enough to make a man reckless, and liking is not enough to make a man break the law, unless it is ......

Although he has not had much contact with Huang Hailin, he has a deep understanding of this person, this is a good person who values love and righteousness, and will never know that Wang Xinran will not be able to leave and deliberately do this to win Wang Xinran's favor, he really hopes that Wang Xinran can finally go with him.

Standing on Wang Xinran's position, the contradiction is also understandable, Huang Hailin's actions are selfless, and in the end she will get nothing but discipline and legal punishment, she is a smart person, it is impossible not to know what Huang Hailin is thinking in her heart, but Wang Xinran has him in her heart, and she can't give Huang Hailin any response and return, so she will be contradictory, grateful, apologetic, blame, and regret.

In fact, Huang Hailin has known Wang Xinran for a longer time than him, as early as when Wang Xinran went undercover at school, the two were already colleagues, to be precise, he robbed Huang Hailin of the person he liked, Huang Hailin had acted with the two many times, it was impossible not to notice that Wang Xinran liked him, but Huang Hailin never showed any jealousy and hostility, not only did he not be hostile to him, but he also saved his life many times at critical moments, this is really a good person.

Everyone understands the truth, but he is still very disappointed in his heart, is it true that his feelings can't withstand the wear and tear of the years, and the unresponsive effort really can't last long?

Wu Zhongyuan's heart was very confused, and he couldn't figure it out for a while, and in addition, it was unfair to make a judgment based on just one look, and he had to observe further to be sure.

But he also knows very well that there is not much time left for him, the 18th sub-bureau has begun to investigate the trajectory of the pug he possessed, at this time there is surveillance everywhere, as long as he is found to steal the mobile phone, he will try to find the owner of the mobile phone, once he finds the owner of the mobile phone, he will know the number of the mobile phone, and then he can track down who he called or sent a message after the mobile phone was lost, as long as he finds Mr. Li, his identity is exposed.

It takes time to look at the surveillance, and it takes time to find the owner of the phone, and since it is not an urgent case, there will be no expedited investigation, and it should be safe within three days.

Three days, wait another three days, and make a decision after three days......
