Chapter 577: The Game Pod That Shouldn't Be Present
Qi Lin was about to pull the tripwire, but Cheng Yanqiu stopped him.
"It's a hassle to set this thing up once, so I'll let them know."
With that, he picked up a stone from the ground and struck it on the inner wall of the tunnel with a special rhythm.
Cheng Yanqiu struck it forty or fifty times, and the interval between each stroke was long and short, and Qi Lin immediately heard that it was a string of Morse code.
Cheng Yanqiu paused on average of five signals, and in the Morse code comparison table, only numbers are composed of five signals, and the twenty-six letters from A to Z are composed of two to four signals.
It was a string of passwords that reverberated through the tunnels and traveled far and wide.
Five minutes after Cheng Yanqiu knocked out the password, there was a "snapping" sound of boots stepping on the stagnant water in the depths of the tunnel, and four people wrapped in army-green canvas tents appeared in Qi Lin's field of vision.
They stopped five meters away from the two of them, and Qi Lin could clearly see that three of them had the shape of a gun barrel raised under their cloaks, aiming at several vital points on his body.
The man at the head glanced at Cheng Yanqiu, then at Qi Lin, and slowly took off his hood.
Qi Lin thought that he could see the other party's true face, but who knew that under the hood, that person was also wearing a black tactical hood.
Mom too...... What are you doing with your hoods on...... That's a lot of work...... That's not how you play mystery, right...... Qi Lin complained silently in his heart.
"Why did you bring outsiders in?" The person at the head looked at Cheng Yanqiu, obviously they knew each other.
"He was hunted down as well." Cheng Yanqiu replied succinctly.
"What does he know?"
"He doesn't know anything."
Although the two were talking about things related to Qi Lin, no one looked at Qi Lin during the whole process, but the other three people kept pointing their guns at Qi Lin.
"You should know the rules, you don't have any electronics on you, right?"
"Nope." Cheng Yanqiu said and took off his Qi Lin's backpack and threw it away.
The other party took the backpack, looked through it, and then threw the backpack back to the two of them.
Immediately afterward, a guy in a cloak stepped forward and searched the two of them.
Qi Lin noticed that the figure of this body-searching guy was half a head larger than himself, his legs were very slender under the fat cloak, and there was a faint fragrance on his body, obviously a woman.
After the woman searched the two of them, she quickly retreated and nodded to the man in charge.
"No problem, but after all, he is an outsider, and I can't do anything about some things, and I hope you can understand." As he spoke, he took out a hood and threw it at Qi Lin.
This is a black cotton hood, which is exactly the same material as the one on the other person's head, but the only difference is that there is no opening between the eyes, and when you put it on, your eyes will become dark.
"Put him on and don't take it off until you are notified that you can take it down, or you will bear the consequences." The other party said coldly.
Qi Lin didn't care, he put it directly on his head.
"Follow me."
The four of them took Qi Lin and Cheng Yanqiu towards the deeper part of the mine, and before they had gone far, Qi Lin felt that he had been pushed into some kind of transportation.
Judging from the smell of rust inside the vehicle and the material of the floor under his feet, it seemed to be an old-fashioned train car, Qi Lin took a few steps inside, and his knee touched a chair, and he simply sat down on the chair.
The carriage moved, but it did not make the loud noise that Qi Lin had imagined, and the carriage was like a ghost in the night, gliding silently deep underground.
Although Qi Lin couldn't see anything, but except for his vision, his other senses were not too restricted, the speed of the train was about forty-two kilometers to forty-five kilometers per hour, and after eleven minutes, it turned two big bends, passed through an empty underground cave, and finally stopped in a place where the air was filled with the smell of disinfectant water.
Qi Lin was taken out of the car and escorted into a light-filled house like a prisoner, before his hood was ripped off.
The one who escorted him was the woman who searched his body before, and Qi Lin had already known it from the smell.
It is a room with metal panels on all four walls, a built-in LED light at the top, and no windows, only a few doors that are shut.
Qi Lin was taken to a bench by the wall, and the woman motioned for him to sit there and wait.
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, don't do what you shouldn't do, stay here obediently, someone will take you away when the time comes." The woman finished speaking and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute." Qi Lin called out to her, and the other party stopped a little reluctantly, hesitated for two seconds before turning around, and asked indifferently, "What's the matter?" ”
"You don't tell me what to ask and what not to ask, so how do I know if I should ask or not ask my question?"
The woman was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "Then don't ask anything!" ”
"But I'm really weird......"
"Then bear with it!" The woman turned around as she finished speaking.
"Wait, one last question—"
"Say!"
"Can I move around freely? Or do you have to sit in a chair all the time? ”
"You are free to move around the room, but your every move is under our watch, and we hope you have a little self-awareness." After the woman finished speaking, she quickly walked out, as if she was afraid that Qi Lin would call her again.
"Phew." The woman left through the nearest door, and the door was slammed shut, and Qi Lin began to look at the "cell" with an area of fifty square meters.
The style of this "cell" Qi Lin is a little familiar, very similar to the buildings in the 404 base, they are all in that simple postmodern style, with a strong sci-fi atmosphere, but the only difference is that there are no electronic products in the room, even the woman said that there is surveillance, Qi Lin did not see the existence of cameras in any corner.
In addition to the bench where Qi Lin was sitting, there was only one metal cabinet in the center of the room, Qi Lin stood up and walked to the metal cabinet, only to find that it was a high-end game cabin with extremely fine workmanship.
"How can there be a game pod here?"
From all the previous signs, it seems that the organization is very secretive about the information related to the mastermind, and even electronic products cannot be carried, obviously for fear of being eavesdropped, but why is there a game pod here?
This is also too unreasonable, as if someone has been bitten by a dog, especially afraid of dogs, not to mention ordinary pet dogs, even small enough to lie on the palm of the palm of the young Chihuahua dare not touch, but was found to have a wolf at home.
Qi Lin tried to activate the game pod, all the functions were normal, and the indicator lights lit up one by one, but at this time, he noticed that unlike other game pods, this game pod was missing an indicator light.
The light that stands for "Network Connection".
