Chapter 19: That's right, it's us
The competition in the Colosseum is about to begin.
Lynn's inadvertent message rang in her ears, and the meaning of her words indicated that they seemed to be late.
Now that the challenger has entered, the champion must also be preparing.
This is undoubtedly an opportunity to wish for enlightenment.
Although Zhu Jue was quite curious about why Lin appeared in such a place, he didn't have time to waste here now, standing aside and waiting for these people to bring down the cultivation cabin where the monster was located, Zhu Jue turned around decisively, saying that he had to participate in the security work of other locations, and asked Batna Gray where he was now.
The reason is that I don't want to run into that weird-looking guy, so I want to avoid him.
With the foreshadowing of the previous conversation, the guards were not suspicious, saying that Batna, as the administrator in charge of the Champion in the Gladiatorial Arena, might now be in the main passage to check the status of the Champion or work in the training room, and if you don't want to meet him, it's best not to go to those two places.
So Zhu Jue left the challenger passage and went straight to the passage where the champion was.
The location of the cultivation room is not clear, and it is not too obvious to ask, otherwise it will arouse suspicion.
If you blindly look for it, you may miss the opportunity, so it is better to start with a goal that you can determine.
The location of the main passage can be speculated, and according to the layout of this gladiatorial arena, of course, the two sides of the battle must appear on one side to reflect the strong confrontation.
The Challenger Passage is on the east side of the first floor, and the Main Passage is definitely on the west side.
Because of the existence of surveillance, Zhu Jue could only maintain a fast pace and could not run, and it was already seven or eight minutes later when he came to the vicinity of the main passage.
Not surprisingly, he saw several people in doctor's attire surrounding a man sitting in a chair in the hallway, surrounded by several medical instruments with ever-changing data flowing on them.
Will Butner be in it?
Flattening the hem of his clothes, Zhu Jue approached casually, relying on the identity of the scavenger in disguise so that no one cared about his appearance, and the guards in the passage nodded when they saw him and said hello.
Zhu Jue responded very calmly.
His gaze lingered on everyone, trying to match it with the face in his mind, but after turning around, Zhu Jue found that there was no target he was looking for.
Surrounded in the middle was a pale-faced young man, with more than a dozen circular scans attached to his chest and shoulders, and his closed eyes and the constantly rolling eyeballs under his eyelids made him look like a critically ill patient.
"Didn't Mr. Gray come?"
Walked over to the nearby guard and asked in a low voice.
"He seems to have other things to do, he was still here just now, and now he doesn't know where he went, do you have something to do with him?"
"Well, it's a bit of a personal matter...... Did he go back to the culture room?"
"I remember going to the left, not to the cultivation room, and I haven't come back yet...... It's the toilet over there, maybe he's sick to his stomach, who knows, anyway, I don't recommend you go to the toilet to find him, it's always frustrating to have the 'project' interrupted, especially for people who may have problems in this area. ”
Maybe it was idle and bored, the guard joked without hesitation, turned his back on the crowd next to him, rubbed his stomach, and said to Zhu Jue with eyebrows.
Obviously, the identity he and Zhu Jue used should have known each other, otherwise they wouldn't have made such a joke.
"It seems that now is really not the time, then I'm just waiting, what are they doing, I just came from the challenger passage, and it's a big guy over there, and this person in front of me looks like a patient who can breathe at any moment. ”
Walking to the left is not the cultivation room, Zhu Jue wrote this down, but did not rush to leave, but continued to ask.
"I thought the same thing as you when I saw a guy like him before, but then they tore the challenger into pieces, and you guarded the elevator and couldn't see the scene at that time, but I watched it at the entrance of this passageway...... Don't be too cruel. ”
Recalling the scene he saw at the time, this person even subconsciously burst out of his hometown scolding dialect.
Zhu Jue glanced at his Asian face and black hair, raised his eyebrows, didn't say anything, and silently handed over a cigarette.
"You guys stay here to deal with the aftermath, the last accident is definitely not allowed to happen again, Bob, you come back to the culture room with me, there is still a set of data to test. ”
After finishing the work here, a middle-aged man got up and said.
The person he named was a young man, and after sorting out the tools in his hand, he immediately got up, followed the middle-aged man and left the corridor, turning to the right.
This is a good opportunity to find a culture room, and Zhu Jue naturally won't miss it.
Follow the two of them, keeping a distance.
The entire gladiatorial arena was so big, excluding the ring and the audience seat as the main body, there was not much space left, so just a few minutes later, Zhu Jue saw the two of them stop in front of a metal door that was obviously different from what they had seen along the way before, and took out the access card in the pocket of their jacket, and one of them also came to the edge of the door frame, which should be for iris authentication.
Here's your chance!
Zhu Jue came out of the corner and ran towards the location of the two people.
The sound of stumbling footsteps in the quiet corridor caught the attention of the two of them, and at this time the metal door had been certified and the door panel shrank to one side.
"Get in the door, there's an intruder, Mr. Gray asked me to inform you to protect the organization's information!"
This was what Zhu Jue had thought about when he was following these two people, he knew that although his current identity was an internal employee of the gladiatorial arena, and he had been working for a short time, he was just a security guard in the final analysis, and it was obviously not enough to win the trust of these two people.
Butner Gray is a good excuse, if what Filin said is correct, then this man should be a member of the Ouroboros organization, since he has his own status and team in the gladiatorial arena, Zhu Jue doesn't believe that he will not be without his right-hand men.
Judging from the conversation just now, the middle-aged man is obviously the leader of this group, and he is naturally close to Batner Gray, and it is very likely that he is in the same camp as the latter.
Because of this, Zhu Jue deliberately mentioned the "organization" in the conversation, and similarly, since there was no way to confirm his identity, he did not recklessly say the name of the Ouroboros.
Batna Gray is not in the cultivation room at the moment, but as the manager of the cultivation room, he will inevitably go back, and the place where the door is closed is the best place for interrogation in Zhu Jue's mind.
Waiting for the rabbit is the right thing!
"Team leader, this ......"
The young man looked at the guards running not far away, and subconsciously asked the man next to him.
Anyone who enters the training chamber without permission will be considered to be violating the rules of the gladiatorial arena, with serious consequences.
Fired squid is just the lightest of them all.
"Hurry in, hey, you hurry up!"
Twisting his brows and pushing the people around him into the cultivation room, the middle-aged man pointed at Zhu Jue and said.
He knew the guard, who had been here before he and Mr. Gray had come to the arena, and unless he had the ability to prophecy such nonsense, he could be trusted.
So even though he didn't quite understand why Mr. Gray was using a guard to deliver the message, he decided to do what the other man said first.
As for what's going on, just bring someone in and ask again.
The guards in the gladiatorial arena are all ordinary people, only equipped with guns, and it is naturally no problem to intimidate ordinary people, even if there is a secret in this, what can he do with himself?
Boom~
The muffled sound of the metal door closing shut out all the sound outside.
Zhu Jue watched the indicator light at the location of the door lock turn red, and immediately turned around, and before he could check the layout of the cultivation room, a middle-aged man appeared in front of him.
"Bob, go make a copy of the data in the database, move fast!"
Ordered his subordinates to run errands, the middle-aged man stared at Zhu Jue,
"Say, what's going on out there?"
"There's an intruder, it seems to be aimed at Mr. Gray, what Ouroboros are about...... That's what Mr. Gray said when he spoke to those people, and he asked me to let you know and move with the key information immediately. ”
Lying is a technical job, but fortunately, Zhu Jue is quite proficient in this aspect.
"What! Who is the intruder, and are there any obvious signs on him?"
As expected, hearing the name of the Ouroboros organization, the expression on the middle-aged man's face suddenly became gloomy, and he looked back at Bob behind him and asked in a low voice.
"I didn't see the intruders' signs, but I found that they looked ...... me."
As he spoke, Zhu Jue was ready to move.
I was about to say that the intruder looked exactly like him, but only halfway through the sentence, the movement stopped in mid-air.
Click~
The sound of a bullet being loaded sounded!
"I didn't expect you to discover such a hidden plan of action!"
The source of the voice was behind him, and there were three people in the perception, and Zhu Jue pulled the corners of his mouth.
He wasn't done yet.
What's going on now?
