The underground building of the Stedelijk Museum is much larger than many people think.

There are huge warehouses built here for the preservation of cultural relics, and in order to slow down the aging of those fragile ancient books, treasures and specimens, there are also very complete maintenance facilities, and the temperature and humidity of the entire underground building must be strictly maintained at a constant standard. There is also a large backup generator in case of power outages, which is very pleasant from a purely residential point of view.

Compared with the ordinary museum management, the underground building of the municipal museum in S City is much larger, and the extra area is the emergency command center of the Coyote Brigade, and now the command center of S City of the Ministry of Disasters is set up here.

The two commissioners, Zhang and Li, who were sent down by the Southeast Branch, are in an office here at the moment.

"We can't just wait." Commissioner Li stared at the LCD map on the desktop, marked the information on it, and said, "It's been three days, and the government has also provided us with convenience, it's time to start searching." ”

"No, it's not time yet." Commissioner Zhang pinched his eyes to relieve the pressure on his eyes, and said tiredly

"How long are we going to wait? If I wait any longer, I'm afraid that I'm going to escape from the S municipal district. Commissioner Li's hoarse voice became more and more hoarse because of the continuous stay up late, and it sounded like sandpaper.

"To be honest, if he did escape from S City, I would feel a lot easier. If you have to kill him, of course, the more remote the better. "Commissioner Zhang is a little helpless" The question is, what if he is still in S City? If we find him now, what can we do with him? ”

"Sacrifice is inevitable, no matter what." Commissioner Li finished marking the new point, put aside the information in his hand and straightened up, "Didn't Ren Yuan agree to make a move?" Let these two monsters fight. ”

"However, Ren Yuan's Long Mu here has not yet been settled." Commissioner Zhang replied

"It's useless to find him a few more dragon herds." Commissioner Li snorted coldly and said, "Do you think he is refusing to be a dragon pastor for Wu Lao?" He's just right now that we can't do anything about the injury and want to earn more freedom. Even if you find him ten dragon herdsmen, he will pick out the reasons for refusal, he is just waiting for us to offer to let him go it alone. ”

Commissioner Zhang did not respond to his companion's words, he didn't understand Ren Yuan's thoughts. However, this is impossible, not to mention what accidents will happen if you get rid of Long Mu's supervision. In terms of Ren Yuan's deeds alone, even if he arranged two dragon mus, it was difficult to reassure, and if there were no front-line supervisors, he could do anything.

"I reflected it yesterday with the above." There was a silence for a while, and Commissioner Zhang spoke

"And our superiors?"

"No, it's from the Thunder Dragons. GD guards Shangguan Hong. Commissioner Zhang shook his head and said

"Why report to him?" Commissioner Li was a little puzzled

"Because no new combatants can be transferred to fill the vacancy for the time being, the combat mission of S City here is also under our unified supervision, so naturally we have to report to him." Commissioner Zhang explained: "This is not the point, the point is that Shangguan Hong promised that there will be new fighters to be added to S City soon. ”

"Oh? Alternative to Ren Yuan? ”

"No, there is no alternative, and the only alternative to Ren Yuan is to dispatch the military and large-scale weapons. Just come over and make up for the temporary void. Besides, Ren Yuan can't be a resident of S City in the future, so he can be considered to be preparing in advance, it is said that he is a very powerful high-level alien, and he is also quite good in the ministry. Commissioner Zhang said, "If there is no special situation, I plan to wait for the new combat team to arrive before launching the operation." ”

"I don't think it makes much sense, anyway, I can't fight the injury head-on, so what's the difference between waiting for them to come or not." Commissioner Li was not very interested in the news that reinforcements were about to arrive: "I think it is not bad for us to find out the location of the injured year first, and let the military come forward to deal with it." The ministry has paid too much attention to the minutiae of reducing influence, which has made it difficult to act. Asking me to say that dealing with it at any cost at the first time will minimize the loss. is procrastinating like this now, and even does not hesitate to release Ren Yuan, but I am afraid that I will lose my wife and lose my troops in the end. ”

"Minimizing the impact of catalysts on ordinary people, how can it be a minutiae." Commissioner Zhang criticized loudly, "The significance of the existence of the disaster department is not to isolate the abnormality from the lives of ordinary people. ”

"Amplify the impact? The current situation in S City is very precarious. We don't know why he hibernated for days without moving, but that's not a reason to slack off. Commissioner Li said solemnly, "Wound Liunian is a genuine A-class alien, and it was artificially created the day after tomorrow!" He knows better than all of us how to transform an ordinary person into a catalyst. The longer it drags on, the more he can do. Just because we're standing still here doesn't mean that the other side will have nothing to do, and now the initiative is in the hands of the other side, and the enemy is in the dark, maybe something very serious has happened now, but we don't know it yet. ”

"That's not something we can decide, we have to trust the judgment of our superiors. Didn't you also say that it was a matter of possibility? Commissioner Zhang naturally understood that what his companion said was right, but now they were facing a huge crisis of A-class alien defection, and no one could afford this responsibility if there was any bad impact due to a mistake in judgment. In particular, the important position of S City in the coastal area, if any serious public opinion turmoil breaks out because of this, then its harm is unimaginable.

"You have to ask your superiors for everything, so why are you sending us here for? Just mail two mobile phones. Commissioner Li was dissatisfied with his companion's cautious and cowardly attitude, and said sarcastically.

Before the words fell, there was a knock on the door, and Wu Qinyuan pushed the door and walked in.

"Old Wu, what's the matter?" Commissioner Zhang hurriedly got up and asked

Hearing Commissioner Zhang's question, Wu Qinyuan was a little confused and asked out loud

"Didn't you call me?"

"I called you here." Commissioner Li took over

From the first day Wu Qinyuan met the two commissioners, Commissioner Li rarely spoke. At first, Wu Qinyuan thought that he didn't talk much because he had a bad voice, but later he found that one of the two was obviously headed by Commissioner Zhang, and he rarely expressed his opinions in the process of discussing the resolution. So much so that Wu Qinyuan often ignored his existence, and it was the first time in three days that Commissioner Li found him directly without discussing with Commissioner Zhang.

"My name is Wu Laolai, mainly because I have found some clues about the whereabouts of the injured year based on the results of the investigation in the past few days, and I want to have a meeting to discuss it. I not only informed you, Mr. Wu, but also Liu Wei and Liu Meng. Commissioner Li explained to the puzzled eyes of the two

Hearing this, Commissioner Zhang's face did not change, but there was a trace of turmoil in his heart. But after all, he didn't say anything, and followed the words of his companion, "In that case, let's wait for the two acting commanders to come over." ”

The three of them were thinking about things while marking the map around Commissioner Li for an afternoon, and no one opened their mouths to continue the topic just now, and the atmosphere seemed a little solemn for a while.

After a while, the Liu brothers also arrived, and everyone gathered in a circle to wait for Commissioner Li to tell him what clues he had found. Commissioner Li stood on the south side of the table, Commissioner Zhang stood across from him, and Wu Qinyuan and the Liu brothers stood on the remaining two sides.

"Let's look at these eight points first." Commissioner Li waved the laser pointer in his hand, operated it with one hand on the touch screen covering the entire desktop, and circled eight points in turn, "These eight points are the last tasks assigned by the ministry to the 'knight' team before the betrayal, and these eight points are the points where Skynet detected abnormal fluctuations and suspected catalysts before." Among them, there are two points by the sea, four points in the urban area, and two points in the suburbs. Now, because all the storage equipment in the stronghold of the Thunder Dragon Brigade has been destroyed by the Wound Stream, we can't go through all the audio-visual materials of the operation, and we can only infer it from the report submitted to the ministry by Shangguan Shanshui. Two places on the seaside are considered to be a misjudgment of Skynet, and at this point on the campus of S University, the catalyst has been recovered. ”

Speaking of this, Commissioner Li paused and looked at Wu Qinyuan for confirmation. Wu Qinyuan nodded and said

"Yes, it was sent by the Wounded Year, and it is now stored in a dedicated warehouse."

"Well, the next thing is this, because it is an anomaly that occurs in the antenna, so the abnormal wave signal is amplified. As for these two points, everyone is very familiar with them, it is the death scene of Ma Wen and Li Yaozhan. At the same time, this place," Commissioner Li said, pointing to one of the points, "the scene of Li Yaozhan's death was the last of the eight points to be observed, and the reconnaissance order was also issued to the knight team on the night of the observation of this point. ”

These are all things that everyone knew before, and Commissioner Li said it quickly and did not elaborate on it, and no one raised any questions. Commissioner Li breathed a sigh of relief and continued in his hoarse voice

"And the main problem is in these two places. The location is in two points on the outskirts, one is the site of the former auto parts factory, and the other is the site of the former oil refinery. If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Wu, you said that after receiving the order, the knight team didn't immediately check the four points in the city, right? ”

"Yes." Wu Qinyuan nodded and said, "Wounded Liunian said that it was arranged by Shanshui, and in order to avoid conflicts with the local police, the location outside the city was prioritized. ”

"Here's the problem, Skynet, the site of the auto parts factory, shows that up to B-level fluctuations have been found, but the report of the knight team shows that no anomalies have been found." Commissioner Li pointed to the screen and said, "And the refinery speculated that night, according to Skynet records, it is suspected that a battle broke out between Wounded Liunian and a B-class Inhuman, and then Shangguan Shanshui was attacked, and there was no report." Ladies and gentlemen, don't you think it's strange? ”

"What is the probability of misjudging B-level fluctuations in Skynet's observation records?" Wu Qinyuan looked up and asked the Liu brothers

"If it is recorded as a B-level fluctuation, then the probability of a misjudgment level is very high, but the probability of a misjudgment is less than 1 in 10 million." Liu Wei replied

"Exactly." Commissioner Li said, "I think there is something wrong with this report that there is no abnormality, and I even suspect that Shangguan Shanshui has been controlled by the injured year at this time. The credibility of the reports we have received since then from the Knight Panel is highly questionable. ”

"It's too late to say this now, the hospital has heard that Shangguan Shanshui's condition has basically stabilized, and we can have a short conversation the day after tomorrow at the latest, and we can verify these with Shangguan Shanshui himself later." Commissioner Zhang said

"Well, that's good. In the past few days, we have called up the police monitoring system and found that there has been no trace of the injured year in the past three days, and combined with the problems of these two locations in the suburbs, I think the injured year is currently in this area. ”

Speaking of which, Commissioner Li drew a large circle on the screen with his hand, enclosing a large area of suburban and mountainous areas including these two points.

"Is there any other evidence for this inference?" Liu Meng looked at this large area and felt a headache, it was too difficult to investigate, not to mention the lack of monitoring.

"Of course, I looked through the recent police records and found that there was a disappearance this morning, which is very likely related to the injury of the year." Commissioner Li synced a document to the display

"The time of this disappearance case involving six people happened to be the day of the defection of the injured year!"
