The lucky bracelet made of purple crystal beads hangs quietly on the hook of the barbed wire fence, not a little lifeless.

Meng Struck followed the light to the side, reached out and took off the bracelet, and put it in his palm to look at it: "This is Chloe's, she has been here." Fast! Maybe she's down there. As he spoke, Meng Yan pulled open the iron door and was about to rush inside.

Cheng Er stepped forward to block the attack: "Uncle Shi! We haven't even entered the stern of the ship, so it's probably dangerous. At least I'll have to wait until I turn on the lighting. ”

"How can there be so much effort! Go ahead, I'll go in first. Meng Jie pulled Cheng Er away, and he was very anxious.

At this time, Chloe's cameraman Paul, stepped forward quickly and took the bracelet from the striker: "That's right, Chloe's lucky bracelet. Hell, she's not going to take it off until she's done with work. ”

Meng Struck stood aside and looked at Paul: "Lucky bracelet? ”

Chloe said it would bring her luck, and she would wear it when she went out for interviews.

As he spoke, the two men rushed into the darkness. Cheng Er asked the other people from the Heyi Society to activate the lighting system, and he followed behind.

"Be careful, the handrails here are deformed." Meng Struck walked in front and reminded behind him. Suddenly, he felt something in his hand.

At this moment, with a few snapping start sounds and the sound of the ballast working, the area was instantly lit up and the four walls were bright.

"Hmm!" Paul was stunned by the sight before him, and the corners of his mouth twitched, "Oh my God, Chloe......" He didn't finish his sentence before he began to look around like crazy.

There were splatters of blood all over the bulkheads, caused by bullets that had penetrated the body. There are also blood stains left by being dragged on the corners and floors. Although there is no one to see here, and there are no corpses, the scene is tragic and terrifying.

Cheng Er, who followed behind, was also quite surprised. As far as he knew, the aft area was leased to government soldiers, and the guards were all government soldiers in civilian clothes. It appears that there has been an attack from outside, and judging by the bloodstains, at least five people have fallen here. He wondered who could wreak havoc under the watchful eye of government soldiers, and what their purpose was.

Mong and Paul slammed down the stairs, the sight before them made them feel bad, and it was hard to expect Chloe to come out unharmed.

Coming to the towed sonar working compartment on the ground floor, he rushed through the hatch and rushed inside. At that moment, he saw that the walls of the cabin and the lifting gear were attached to some kind of irregular white substance.

"Oh! Don't come in! ”

Years of mercenary experience sue sù meng, that is improvised explosives.

He stepped back and turned back, but he was strong, and his movements were too quick when he rushed in, and it was not so easy to turn around immediately. He took two steps and pushed Paul out, holding himself steady.

"What's going on!" Paul asked, "Is it Chloe?" Do you see her? What's wrong with her! ”

After standing firm, Meng Zhu glanced back at Paul, who was very excited. He said to Paul, "Come here." Just now I saw explosives here and wanted to push you out. But now, these explosives are not equipped with detonators, they are just fixed here. Seeing that Cheng Er had come down, Meng Zheng continued to shout, "Cheng Er! Do you know these explosives? ”

"Nope. Our guys have never been to the sonar cabin. ”

Paul walked up and looked up and down at the fixed explosives, like white powder wrapped in plastic bags, taped to the bulkheads. Indeed, there were also scattered fire wires and detonators on the ground.

Looking around, there was no one else. Paul shouted vigorously, "Chloe! Chloy! I'm Paul—"

No response.

Meng Ji walked forward to the abandoned white container, looked at the words "Wooden Man Zero" written on it, and then looked at the packaging inside: "We're late." Wooden Man Zero has been loaded into the LSMP," he pointed at Cheng Er, "The LSMP should be fixed here, the same thing you saw in the afternoon." Luckily, it didn't have a weapon installed yet, so the Roc was able to get out of the way. ”

Several people looked around again, but did not see any valuable clues.

Only Meng Struck stood on the central bridge: "At least Chloe has been here." "It's the trail from the high-heeled boots she's wearing." It seems that someone strangled her from behind and dragged her here. And then...... Chloe didn't struggle anymore......"

Seeing this, Cheng Er shook his head, the situation was very unoptimistic.

"What do you mean, what do you mean!" Paul walked over, his eyes wide open, and yelled at Meng.

"Don't think you're the only one in a hurry!" Meng Zhu saw Paul's menacing appearance, and the long-suppressed feelings in his heart also broke out.

"It's all your responsibility! She came to Xindongdu to interview you this time, and she said that you are a hero! She always said to be with you, no problem, let me leave her alone, she said every day that I should leave her alone! If anything happens to her, I'll ......," Paul roared like madness.

"You're crazy!" Meng Zhu also roared, "She was with you at the time, and you were her cameraman." ”

Paul was stunned.

I have to admit that the current situation is very bad. Paul's whole body collapsed, and he crouched down: "Hell, Chloe may be right, I can't keep up with her. ”

"We still have time." Meng struck over and put his hand on Paul's shoulder, "All the other blood stains are basically a one-shot kill." And Chloe is only gone, but she's still alive, probably taken away, and she's definitely waiting for us somewhere. ”

"Hmm."

"And if it weren't for her, this place would have been blown up to the sky. She arrived suddenly, leaving the attackers with no time to get the explosives ready. ”

Looking at the messy towed sonar pod, Meng Struck began to synthesize the clues he had obtained, and he was anxious to know how to find Chloe.

Recalling the photo brought by Detective Li, someone was lifting the white container of Wood Man Zero at the dock, so it is reasonable to infer that it was transported here and placed in the LSMP.

Now it can only be assumed that the Owari group broke into the area, took out the government personnel and activated the LSMP. Because LSMP would not have been able to fly without Wooden Man Zero, and Wooden Man Zero ended up in the hands of the Owari Gumi.

But Meng Zhu couldn't figure out what the motive of the Owari group was for doing this. If the Owari group does that, they are going to join the ranks of terrorist organizations.

"That's not right!" Meng Zhu secretly said in his heart, there is obviously a bigger secret hidden here. Acting rashly at this time may put Chloe in an even more dangerous situation.

"Paul," Meng Struck asked, turning around, "you and Chloe have come to New Eastern Capital, do you have any other assignments besides interviewing me?" He wondered if Chloe and Paul knew anything else. Since they were here to interview themselves, it is estimated that they should also have some contact with information related to the Whooping Oni.

"No, it's for you."

"Has Chloe been to anyone else in Xindongdu, or where has he been?"

"No, what's wrong? Why are you asking this. Paul felt that the tone of the attack was a little unpolite.

"Nothing. I think Chloe is really familiar with my field, beyond what she needs to know as a journalist. Why is she interested in this? How long have you known her? ”

From the very beginning, Paul had been hostile to the smit. Hearing these words, his accumulated anger burst out again: "'Why is she interested in this?'" What do you mean! ”

Paul was very sensitive to such issues as the striking. Although he was young, he was a veteran of journalism, and in the troubled post-war era, Paul was fed up with the prejudice against journalists. There are always people who accuse them of being journalists in order to steal and sell information. And the question that Meng Struck at him touched this nerve again.

"I wonder if she knows more!"

"You," Paul gritted his teeth, fingers pointing hard at the slapped nose, "come with me and I'll show you 'more things' she knows!" ”

With that, Paul turned around and went up the stairs to the upper floor.

Meng was yelled at by Paul inexplicably, and followed him all the way up.

Cheng Er saw the two turn back: "Where are you going?" Need me to show the way? ”

"Deck!" Paul replied viciously, "Excuse me." ”

Walk through the corridor and alley, climb the ladder to the building. A few minutes later, Mont Struck followed Paul to the deck.

The sea breeze howled, tearing the clothes of several people to a crackling sound, and filling their ears with the sound of a huge wind.

On the deck, the guest and press quarters have not been removed, and folding chairs are scattered around. Paul took Meng to the back of their large SNG satellite news van that was temporarily parked, took out the key to open the rear compartment door, and yelled at Meng Meng, "This is our car." Come in, I'll show you a look at Chloe's qiē! Oh, that's her workstation inside, and look, that's all she has. ”

Meng Strike stepped into the back compartment of the large satellite news van and was taken aback by what he saw inside.

Aside from the necessary news broadcasting equipment, the rest of the place is almost like a pocket-sized "Muslim Museum".

The walls are plastered with photographs cut out of magazines, and there are various newspaper clippings next to them, which are interlaced and densely intertwined. In addition, there are many collectibles, such as commemorative cards sold for the Seven Aces of the First Five-Year War, model airplanes and key chains, and there are also two-headed dolls of the Seven Aces of the First Afternoon on the table.

"Got it! Mr. Meng! Paul yelled, and then his tone calmed down, "Chloe is your fan, and you're her hero." She admires your appearance in war, and although it seems to me that it is a pure disobedience to orders, and may surprise the enemy, but it is only luck! But she said that the battlefield needs a guy like you, who can turn the tide and restore morale. ”

After saying that, Paul took out another photo album from the drawer and threw it in front of Meng Zheng: "Chloe's photo album, I really wish she could appear now, slap me, and scold me for turning over her things." It's me who keeps trying to look good on her, it's me who stays there for her. Hell, what did I say......" With that, he raised his hand and rubbed his face.

Meng Zheng straightened the photo album and flipped through a few pages.

"How does it feel? It's like your photo album, and there aren't a few pictures of Chloe in it. ”

Indeed, it was not until later that Meng Struck saw a few photos of Chloe's life. Paul also walked over and muttered as if explaining: "She said that she has been fascinated by Asian culture since she was a child, knows how to cook Chinese food, learned taekwondo, judo and something, and maybe Chinese kung fu." But it seems that your Asian stuff doesn't work at all. ”

Page by page, Chloe never showed this in front of the attack.

"Sorry, I don't know that." Meng pouted and shook his head, though he didn't know why Paul was showing him this, but he did feel a little inexplicably guilty.

"You know what else to do? I didn't expect anything from you. Paul stood up, arms folded, "And Chloe has her dignity, she just likes the image and the will she admires, you don't have to think too much about it." ”

Meng Zheng also stood up, and before he could speak, his mobile phone rang.

He frowned, wasn't that enough today.

The caller ID was the Nanyang Village Hotel where he was staying, and he pressed the button to connect: "Hey." ”

"Hello Mr. Meng, sorry to bother you. I am a waitress at the front desk of Village Hotel Nanyang, and someone left you a package saying that it is very urgent and that we want us to send it to you immediately. But you're not in the room, so we'll call you to let you know......" The voice across the earpiece was polite and unhurried.

"Who sent it?" Meng Zhu interrupted the other impatiently, he just wanted to know if it had anything to do with Chloe.

"I don't know, it's a gentleman, he didn't leave a name."

"What's that?"

"It's a bag ......"

"What's inside!"

"This, we can't ......"

"What is it! I'll show you! ”

"Uh...... Please wait. The waiter on the other side replied, "It's a dress." ”

"Dresses? What a dress. ”

"There's just one dress in there, lemon yellow, uh, the brand is Versace. But it's already worn, do you need me to wash it? ”
