"Report the location of the tracking point. ”

"Numbers 1 to 14 are located in the center of the 'fortress', 17 to 22 have left the surveillance area, and the signals of 15 and 16 have disappeared and cannot be tracked. ”

"How's the carrier airship doing?"

"It's all in the 'fortress' atrium, and there is no sign of take-off for the time being. ”

The two investigators looked at each other and nodded.

The silver-haired young man got up and ordered in a deep voice, "Action ahead - all staff change their equipment, and assemble at the B4 dock in five minutes." ”

The group that received the order responded in unison and rushed to the equipment room next door with good training.

The purple-haired investigator quickly changed into a combat uniform, adjusting the position of the Poké Ball control device on his wrist without looking back, "Nishihori, contact the Chief of the Red Reed, channel password-"

There was a sudden pause in the voice.

She saw the screen of her phone stuffed into the cabinet suddenly light up, and a message emerged.

It was a mixture of letters, numbers, and special symbols, almost meaningless gibberish. But the sender's name made it impossible for her to easily ignore the seemingly inexplicable email.

[From: Ryan Cassell]

Remembering what he had asked his mind reader friend to do, the recipient re-read the sixteen characters and kept them firmly in mind.

"Xingyu senior?"

The young man who hadn't waited for a long time raised his head suspiciously.

The purple-haired inquisitor shook his head and put his helmet on.

—Channel password, E356Z. ”

As the words fell, the dark green characters unfolded like a tide in the field of vision inside the helmet.

In the next second, the man's hoarse voice crossed most of Sanyuan City, sounding in the ears of the people who were about to enter the battlefield in the search department.

"Good news, guys. The chief inspector of the Guandu Public Security Department, Akira Chi, said lazily, "One of the ultimate goals of our mission, the national treasure professor to be rescued, is in the 'fortress'. ”

"Why don't you just do it and do it all the way?"

(8. Maniac)

Pale sunlight pierces the clouds, smearing the silhouette of the mountain peaks into an overexposed old photograph.

The towering mountains of the Ibuki Mountains surround the buildings, and only the birds of the sky can see the huge circular buildings that cling to the mountains. The atrium of the Ring of Steel has a thin corridor that runs north and south, and the central circular room has optical camouflage attached to the outer wall, almost disappearing between the rocks and vegetation.

However, the eyes of the "bird" saw through the seemingly unassailable camouflage.

"Intelligence from the Flaming Sparrow Reconnaissance Aircraft No. 3 - there is nothing unusual in the central control room. ”

Nishihori reported as he observed the dark green numbers that kept appearing in his field of vision inside the helmet.

The Divine Feather Investigator nodded. His long hair had been meticulously tied up, bound in a full-coverage helmet, with no silver glimmer visible.

Six men in full gear were standing silently in the shadows at the foot of the mountain. The only person who hadn't put on his tactical helmet yet, Akarei Koyuki raised an eyebrow and threw his gaze off the distance.

The mountains are so quiet that it seems that there are no anti-human research bases for criminals at all.

"Whatever human genes awaken, they are all crazy. ”

Red Reed swore and snapped his helmet to his head—no matter how fanciful the cult-like group used its propaganda, he thought that making humans scaly or growing wings was tantamount to evil.

"You don't take much. The investigator of the Metropolitan Police Department, who was standing quietly on the side, said coldly.

"Bastard boy, how do you talk to your superiors?"

Perhaps because the conversion of electromagnetic signals is different from that of air transmission, there is a more cold mechanical feeling, and there is surprisingly little anger in the voice of the chief inspector of the Guandu Public Security Department. He looked at the four people from the search department, "What are you thinking about?"

The silver-haired searcher, who took the lead in this mission, said succinctly: "This is a rare opportunity, save people." ”

The voice coming from the helmet's tiny speaker was rational and determined, as if it were just a normal choice.

Captain Akarie smiled.

Sure enough, we are one type of people. ”

The curtain wall of dark green text once again bloomed in the field of vision of the tactical helmet, wrapped in the smell of blood and gunsmoke.

(9.Side)

"The main road of the 'Dark Passage' is blocked. Qing Ze stopped tapping on the virtual keyboard in his palm and said succinctly.

Since the original goal has changed from "monitoring the direction of the transfer of personnel in the fortress" to "infiltrating the fortress to rescue Professor Gao Shengjia", the detection of the distribution of personnel within the base has become a crucial task - although the six people present have already memorized the building plan of the fortress and the daily distribution of personnel more than their own names, but these cunning criminals seem to have heard something and are busy moving the base, and the usual personnel distribution has long been impossible to count.

In the preliminary investigation, public security investigator Qing Ze built a "secret passage" to the fortress's monitoring system through hacking technology, which can observe the monitoring information of the fortress unknowingly. Unfortunately, this dark passage in the data world seems to have been discovered in advance, and the demolition is comparable to the electronic version of the abandoned factory blasting site.

"The main road, that is, it has not been completely destroyed?" the silver-haired young man keenly sensed the meaning behind the words.

"That's all that remains, and that's all that remains. ”

Perhaps the "branch road" was cleverly hidden by Mr. Hacker, and in the cleaning of the online world, there are still a few sheep intestine trails that survive. As the investigator's voice fell, layers of footage were transmitted to the eyes of the other five along a fixed channel.

The silence that came from reading the message lasted only a few seconds. Before half of the members had time to count the number of surveillances remaining, the Star Rain Investigator suddenly spoke, "Nishihori, you brought the HX08 equipment components, right?—— Captain, take a look at the No. 72 surveillance." ”

"Yes, I have the HX series equipment components from five to nine with me. Nishihori gestured with the heavy equipment box in his hand inexplicably.

At the same time, the eyes of the Shen Yu investigator stayed on the back of the young boy in the surveillance footage, and suddenly understood what his old partner was thinking.

The always shrewd and decisive leader hesitated for a rare moment.

But only for a moment.

"Dongjiang, call the rescue department and ask them to be on standby at the lurking point in fifteen minutes. The Shen Yu Investigator said, turning slightly to the side. The pitch-black helmet completely enveloped the young man's face, but the person who was watching vaguely felt the gaze falling on him.

"I agree with your proposal. ”

The commander of this rescue operation said calmly.

(10. Goods)

The boy stepped out of the snow-white building.

He wore a somewhat ill-fitting white gown, his pale pink hair was curly and scattered, and his bangs half-covered his shy, somewhat gloomy eyes.

The airship's dock was crowded with trucks, which were crowding into the airship's warehouse to unload. The boy was stunned and broke into the traffic, and the staff who maintained order turned a blind eye to him.

When he walked out of the harbor, there was already a sleeping creature in his hands.

Perhaps it was the sudden change of circumstances that brought uneasiness, and the mentally fragile "goods" howled hoarsely as they were locked in the carriages, and although they could not break the shackles and the walls of the strong alloy carriages, they were also disturbed. As a result, the shipper simply sprayed this batch of experimental specimens with a strong anesthetic gas on his face - only for Pokémon, even if it was an overactive ape, he had to sleep obediently for more than twenty hours.

The electric worm in the boy's hand is obviously one of the anesthetized goods, and even if he is casually dragged back and forth by one leg, he has no tendency to wake up.

He made his way through the dense patrol and swaggered away.

A pale finger is attached to the screen of the security lock and the fingerprint information is passed to the controller. The moment the door opened, the boy's movements were invisible.

A thin needle shot into his neck.

(11. Mask)

It wasn't until the young man's limp body was grabbed - the six people hanging on the roof flashed into the door with lightning speed - dragged the unconscious boy into the corner - the door closed and a series of processes were completed in a few seconds, that the chief of the red reed police sincerely admired: "Your department is really a master of art and bold. ”

The Dongjiang investigator, who was silent, only replied with an indifferent sound of the tranquilizer gun returning to its place.

At the end of the corridor where everyone is hiding is a blind spot for surveillance, but someone can still pass by at any time. Therefore, the executor of the next plan, the Star Rain Investigator, did not have time for small talk, and while taking off his helmet, he motioned for Nishibori to take out the equipment.

The equipment components of the HX series are all non-combat auxiliary equipment, and the number 08 has a name that looks like a five-point word that can't be written on an A4 line of paper - and the industry abbreviates it as "human skin mask".

The cold, heavy mechanical helmet was buckled to the boy's head. Just a few seconds later, the green light lit up, and Nishibori quickly removed it again to help his senior wear it. The other two investigators had silently and quickly taken off the boy's clothes and handed them to their companions one by one.

"The fort is crowded with people, and it is recommended that he be taken to the roof for temporary resettlement - and that someone is expected to pass by in forty seconds. Qing Ze reported quickly.

The words fell, and the people who were huddled in the middle took off their heavy helmets.

Her face had completely changed by now, like a copy and paste of another person who had fallen to the ground. Only the dark gray pupils revealed a look that was very different from the target's - her gaze was still clear and serene, even when she was in danger.

"The freight elevator connecting the warehouse on the top floor is the only breakthrough. We will first find a way to enter the freight elevator, and how to get the elevator card is up to you. Akarei said.

Employees are not allowed to ride the goods elevators in the fort, and only elevator cards with the appropriate authority below can manipulate them up and down. Delivery people in warehouses are usually only responsible for placing the requested goods in the car – obviously, this is designed to protect against "own people" and not external enemies.

As an old policeman, he knows too well the difference between a way to survive and a disguise, and the locations on the ground that seem to be loopholes are all traps used to lure the enemy, but it is only the places that seem to be heavy in the level that can be taken advantage of.

The silver-haired investigator stopped closing his eyes and said succinctly, "You have four minutes." ”

The watcher raised the corners of his mouth and showed a smile that a "deity" would never have.

"Enough. ”
