"So, where do we start?" said Shilan, drawing circles in the air with the flames on her fingertips.

After settling down, the two sat down at the table and were in a daze for a while.

"Ah...... This is indeed a headache......" Liu Ye scratched his head, and finally returned to Boyun City after some tossing, there were a lot of things to investigate, but when he really wanted to start doing it, he didn't know where to start.

"Why don't we dive directly into the high-tech?" Shi Lan swiped on the table, called up an electronic map, and circled the location of the high-tech headquarters on the map, "As long as you do your homework, it shouldn't be a problem to hide from the guards." ”

"No, that's what we did last time, and not only did we not gain anything, but we almost lost our lives. Liu Ye looked at the map and fell into deep thought, his teeth biting his lower lip lightly, and his fingers tapping lightly on the tabletop, "Before you find out the situation inside the high-tech, you must not rashly break into their territory." ”

A few months ago, just one "tear" caused them such trouble, and now although the two of them are no longer what they used to be, it is still too dangerous to sneak directly into this matter.

"What then?"

“......”

The breeze outside the window slowly walked into the house, pushing up the beige curtains high, the sun was just right, Liu Ye's memory turned back to the afternoon when everything had not changed a few months ago, Chen Siyun sat happily opposite him and talked about his new job, all kinds of books and documents were scattered aside, and the world looked lazy and comfortable.

Damn it...... knew that Chen Siyun was at the high-tech headquarters, but he couldn't save him immediately.

"Let's go somewhere else, now. ”

"Huh, where?"

"The former site of Tianyi Workshop. ”

"Here...... It feels so strange......" Shi Lan turned her head to look at the abandoned high-rise buildings on both sides as she walked, the places where the sun did not shine were covered with deep or shallow moss, and many glasses were broken for unknown reasons, "It's not far from the lively neighborhood, why are there fewer people the more you go inside, and there is no one here." It's like...... Hmmm......"

"What does it look like?" Liu Ye walked in front, carefully observing the corners around him? Any insignificant object could be a clue? So you can't let go of anything," the neighborhood here seems to have been abandoned with the disappearance of Tianyi Workshop? I don't know what's going on. ”

"It's like? It's like being squainted by someone, huh? What is it called in terms of areas and objects......" Shi Lan put her index finger to her lips and tilted her head to think for a moment? "Huh? I remember, it's called 'Idlers Retreat'. ”

"But there's no trace of magic, at least not here. Liu Ye patted the wall next to him? Feels solid? It seems that the walls are thick, "If that magic had been cast, there would have been some remnants of the array or something." ”

"Well, that's right. Shi Lan looked at the dark and damp path in front of her and nodded, maybe it's just that there is nothing here so no one comes.

"Huh? Here it is. ”

Liu Ye stopped at the door of a building? There is some construction waste piled up in a mess at the door, although the debris does not block the doorway? But that sensor door is obviously already ineffective, unless the door is violently broken? Otherwise, you won't be able to enter through the main entrance.

"Let's go through the side door. Liu Ye thought about it a little? Gave up the idea of tearing down the door? Anyway, you have to search through it well, and enter it from the front and side, the difference is not very big.

The side door was a metal fire door, Liu Ye put his hand on it and tentatively twisted it, and found that the door didn't seem to be easy to open.

"Is the bearing stuck?" Shi Lan leaned her face to the crack in the door and looked at it, "Well, it's so dark inside, you can't see anything." ”

"It's been deserted for five years, and I don't think there will be any lights, of course it's dark. Liu Ye pushed the doorknob hard, the security door was not locked, just like Shi Lan said, it seemed that the bearing was stuck, and there was a lot of resistance when pushing the door.

He increased the strength of his hand, and the fire door shook slightly, but he still couldn't push it open, Liu Ye frowned, not to mention that the bearings were made of special materials that would not rust, just with his current arm strength, even if the bearings were rusted, they could still be forcibly pushed open.

Something was blocking the door.

"Shilan, you step aside. ”

Shi Lan obediently stepped aside, Liu Ye immediately raised his right hand, and a huge torque exploded, and the fire door was instantly twisted into a ball.

"Ahh

"It's ...... Robots?" Liu Ye waved his hand and threw aside the fire door that had turned into a conch-shaped, and looked at the behemoth blocking the entrance, "How could this thing be here?"

It was a robot about two meters tall, with the appearance of an adult man, broken in two from its waist. The technology of these bionic robots has been perfected for many years, and apart from the lack of emotion, the occasional glowing eyes are the only sign that distinguishes them from humans.

"It turned out to be ...... Robots. Shilan stuck out her tongue, "I thought it was a real person." ”

"Real people...... It's not the first time you've seen a corpse, even if it's a real person who has been cut in half, you don't have to make a fuss to that extent. Liu Ye squatted next to the robot, "The break is very irregular, it doesn't look like it was cut off, but it looks like it was forcibly pulled apart by something." ”

"Eh, are there any monsters in there that can tear robots by hand?"

"I want to ...... I don't think so. Liu Ye looked at Shi Lan, she covered her mouth and her body was trembling, but her eyes were shining with excitement, I really don't know if she was scared or excited, "Even if there is, it's been five years, and it's definitely not here." ”

"Hey, it's boring. ”

Liu Ye touched her cheek, this girl didn't want to fight with such a monster.

"I still want to fight the ferocious monster with two moves, just to verify the new results of cultivation. ”

I'm really thinking about it......

Shaking his head, Liu Ye used his magic to push the damaged robot aside, clearing out an opening for one person to pass through, and inside was a deep corridor, so dark that nothing could be seen.

As soon as the two of them entered the building, I don't know if it was a psychological effect, the atmosphere seemed to have become cold all of a sudden, obviously it was too hot to wear a short-sleeved dress, and Liu Ye actually had goosebumps in this corridor without lights.

"It's cold. Shi Lan held it up in front of her and rubbed it gently.

Liu Ye squinted his eyes, and when Shi Lan spoke just now, he exhaled white water vapor, it didn't seem to be a psychological effect, the temperature here was indeed much lower than the outside world,

But why is that? The scientific world's methods of changing the temperature of the environment should have been discarded here because of the loss of energy.

Liu Ye looked at the doors of the offices on both sides of the corridor that were either open or shrunk, which were the places where the managers of Tianyi Workshop worked in the past, and where they communicated with the outside world most frequently, but now there was no one left.

"Smack. Walking into one of the doors, Liu Ye snapped his fingers, and a small flame grew from his fingertips, and the firelight instantly illuminated the entire room.

A small room of only a few square meters, with several cabinets along the wall, and on the right hand side of the door is a long white desk, behind which the swivel chair is diagonally facing the opposite direction, and there is a black stain on the back of the chair, which extends from the pillow to the armrest.

"This is ......" Liu Ye gently wiped the black stain with his right hand, put it under his nose and sniffed it, a faint fishy smell, "Bloodstains?"

"Bloodstains?" Shi Lan suddenly thought of something, and pulled Liu Ye's left hand, "Do you remember when you met that white-haired man in Jiangyue Park, he said such a sentence." ”

"Five years ago, a lot of people died~ Corpses are all over the field, blood is flowing, hehehe...... There are a lot of experimental materials~"

Liu Ye also remembered that on that day, Cheng Wenqiu had said such a thing.

There must have been large-scale bloodshed here, but there was only blood at the scene and no corpses, was it because someone had cleaned it up?

But the blood was still there, and the people who cleaned up the scene seemed to be in a hurry.

However, since there is time to clean up the corpses, why is the robot at the door still there?

Not only that, the things in the room were neatly arranged, and there was no trace of a fight, but the robot seemed to have been torn apart by some huge external force, and if it had been cleaned up and restored afterwards, it seemed even more unreasonable not to clean up the wreckage of the robot.

These clues are self-contradictory, and there are too many illogical places. Liu Ye rubbed his eyebrows, he vaguely felt that there must be a reasonable explanation hidden behind these things, but it was difficult to think of for a while.

"Suo Suo-" There seemed to be a sound coming from upstairs, although it sounded very slight from a long distance, but Mu Shilan and Liu Ye could hear it clearly.

"Huh, there's a living person?"

"It's not certain whether it's a living person, let's go, go up and see. The elevator and magnetic track are definitely not going to work, but the stairs are still working. ”

The two of them attached the force of the wind to their feet, and stepped on the stairs without making any sound, and the wind slid through the broken windows of the stairway, making a whimpering sound similar to that of wild animals, and dust filled the air with a disgusting stench.

"Hmm......"

"Shhhhhh

"Whoosh-" A black shadow flew through the gap between the handrails of the stairs, Liu Ye pulled Shi Lan and retreated to the wall with an arrow, but the black shadow did not have the slightest intention of staying, it flashed in front of them, and a loud sound of "knock-" came, and the thing seemed to have landed.

"Liu Ye, that was ...... just now What is it?" Shilan said in a low voice, "That seems to be ...... It's personal. But I didn't see it too clearly......"

"......" Liu Ye didn't speak, he walked to the handrail and looked down, it was a heavily armed man, wearing a thick dark blue body armor, wearing a helmet and a mask, but these obviously could not save his life, as evidenced by the blood stains on the back of his head.

"Did he be thrown from above?" Shilan whispered, "Are we going to go any further?" ”

Shi Lan is not without reason, if she continues to go up, there will inevitably be a risk of conflict with one or even two parties, and at that time, she may have to use magic to defend herself.

Although this place is in a remote location, since there are guards here, it means that it is not unsupervised, once the magic is used, there is a possibility of being discovered, and the people present can say that it is easy for Liu Ye to clean his memory, but the key problem is that he doesn't know if there are any eyes secretly staring here.

"Go, keep going. ”

The guy who appeared here at this point in time, and would clash with the guards and kill people, might have something to do with the events that happened here five years ago, and if that's the case, he'd miss a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to go back like this.

Now that the clues are scattered and foggy, if they miss such an opportunity, they don't know how long it will take to find out the truth here, and the mastermind behind the scenes has obviously cleaned up the scene, it will be even more difficult to find him.

You can't just leave.

"Unexpectedly, in addition to the guard who was not afraid of death, there were still people who followed. In the stairwell at the top of the building, a man in a black leather jacket was holding a pair of binoculars in his hand, looking down through the gap between the handrails, and a precision dark green rifle was placed at his feet, "Ye Xin, what are you going to do with this tail?"

"There's no need to entangle with them too much, so as not to cause trouble. The door to the rooftop was open, and a hot woman in a leotard was fiddling with the ropes, "Mission is done, hurry up and get out of here." ”

"Yes, Zhang Qi, do you want to kill people so much? I've already killed a giant rat today, and your desire to kill hasn't been satisfied?" Another tall woman, she was wearing sunglasses, and her right arm was slightly bent against the door, "It's not in line with the rules of the trade." ”

"Hmph," Zhang Qi raised his foot to kick the rifle up, reached out to hold it, and put it into the guitar case he was carrying on his back, "I'm not as cruel as you think." ”

"Stop bickering, come and get the rope. Ye Xin threw a climbing rope for the two of them, "This place is very eerie, I don't want to stay here any longer." ”

"Knock-" There was a muffled sound.

"Look at what I'm doing? It's not me, I'm not doing anything. Facing the puzzled gazes cast by Ye Xin and Liu Xia, Zhang Qi waved his hand again and again.

"Knock-" There was another muffled sound, and the whole building seemed to tremble, and a lot of dust shook off, like countless flying insects in the light.

Ye Xin and Liu Xia glanced at Zhang Qi, he licked his lips, and then untied the piano case on his shoulder, and took out the dark green rifle.
