Volume 2 The Dark Knight Chapter 64 A Corner of Darkness
At eight o'clock in the morning, in the garage parking lot outside the cave, El was driving an old medium-duty truck, circling on the concrete floor. When the car was about to drive to the open area, he pressed the accelerator on the sole of his foot.
El glanced at the speedometer, and the hands were about to turn to sixty.
"Get ready!" He shouted to Gu Chenxi in the truck car.
The back door of the truck was open, and in the compartment, Gu Chenxi was sitting on a Finreal motorcycle at the moment, wearing a JΓΆrmungard suit. He looked at the concrete road outside the car door and felt palpitations.
"Jump!"
With Er's order, Gu Chenxi let go of the handbrake, kicked forward with his left foot, and withdrew backwards with the motorcycle.
The moment the tires touched the ground, he quickly turned the grip and tried to start the car's engine. But the result can be imagined, because of the huge friction force in the reverse, he and the motorcycle rolled on the ground together.
Er, who was still driving, heard the noise, hurriedly stepped on the brakes and walked towards Gu Chenxi.
"Are you still alive?!" Elle shouted slightly teasingly.
Not far away, Gu Chenxi fell to the ground sideways, one hand covering his waist, moaning in pain.
β.. Yes.... Buttocks.... His ass fell...."He curled up on the concrete floor, crying in his words, "Ahhhhhhhhhhh It hurts..."
El watched him lie on the ground like a caterpillar. Even through that mask, he could imagine how funny Gu Chenxi's expression was.
"It's not good, it's far from it." El responded.
Hearing this, Gu Chenxi became angry, staggered up from the ground and shouted, "If you have the ability to try it, this thing is fiercer than anything I've ridden!" β
El shrugged his eyebrows and asked with a wicked smile, "Something?" What else have you ridden besides a motorcycle? β
"Me! ......" He was choked by El's speechlessness.
Earlier, the two had drawn up an interception plan against the Gang of Three. They devised interception and escape routes, including how to alter nearby traffic.
It was predicted that the area through which the Gang of Three would pass was at the junction of the new city and the old city, and yesterday it was calculated that the Gang of Three would be forced on this route.
The aim is to narrow the range of action of the Gang of Three, and strive to minimize the possibility of harm to citizens when intercepting, and to escape quickly.
But they had a problem: in the city of Hanning, where traffic is complicated, they can't be sure that they can control it 100 percent.
There are many small roads at the junction of the old and new towns, and they cannot accurately intercept them at a particular location, but only ensure that they enter the viaduct in the southeast district.
But there was no place on the viaduct to hide and ambush, so he couldn't put on his suit and park his motorcycle on the side of the road, right? That will be taken away by the traffic police.
So I came up with the idea of using a medium-duty truck that could drive on the viaduct and maintain its own mobility. can respond to emergencies in a timely manner, and can also hide Gu Chenxi.
This plan, while feasible, has a fatal problem. That is, in the middle of the rush hour of traffic, he was unable to stabilize the bike in a short distance.
It's an annoying physics problem, as it accelerates backwards when it gets out of the cabin, and the tires turn backwards before they touch the ground.
However, since he had to start the engine after touching the ground, the total speed was greater than the acceleration backwards, so at that moment, the tires would quickly change the direction of rotation to forward.
The car body flutters due to the huge force change and then loses control. Even if this set of operations was theoretically feasible, Gu Chenxi did not have that kind of lightning reaction, and was able to grasp those actions in an instant.
He sat back on the ground and asked helplessly, "Is there no other way?" Do you have to intercept it halfway? β
El responded, "Are you stupid to be a gang of three? If you don't take this extreme method, they will usually think of it in advance, and we are not the only ones who want to catch them. When the time comes, your game will be reduced again, and the gains outweigh the losses. β
"Besides, out of that area is the viaduct, and the traffic around there is a fucking cobweb! It's so hard to control traffic thoroughly! β
Faced with the problem of escaping after interception, if you enter the bridge due south, you will pass through a traffic post before that, where traffic police often linger.
So the two of them planned to intercept the viaduct in the new city, and then move from the city to the southwest part, and then evacuate from the bridge across the river through the tunnel
El looked at the motorcycle that had fallen to the side, shook his head and sighed.
Gu Chenxi, who was sitting on the ground, took off his hood and looked around a little tiredly. As he caught a glimpse of the garage roof, he suddenly remembered the first time he had tinkered with a rope thrower.
As if he had thought of something, he said, "If we put a rope on it, then we can get traction when it hits the ground, and we don't have to rely on the engine to get acceleration." β
Hearing this, El raised his eyebrows and immediately listened attentively.
"Finreal's two-way wheels automatically adjust their speed with traction. All that's left to do is balance and disconnect the rope when you're fast enough to maneuver. β
After speaking, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, their eyes shining, as excited as if they had solved a problem in the world.
"Try?" Gu Chenxi asked.
"Try it!"
Ellock happily ran into the garage, intending to go back and find the rope thrower. Gu Chenxi covered her aching buttocks and limped towards Finreal.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, in the building of Ai Weng's headquarters, Manager Zheng walked towards the leader's special elevator in the corridor on the 24th floor, accompanied by his female secretary - Wu Min.
He asked Secretary Wu, "When will module No. 48 be shipped?" β
"Tomorrow night."
Since two modules had already been hijacked, she asked, "Do you want to have more cars?" β
He glanced at Secretary Wu and responded, "No, it's refreshing." β
The two of them entered the elevator together, and when they saw that there was no one else beside them, they continued: "Let them add more people at the port and make two convoys as a cover." β
Secretary Wu nodded.
On one side of the elevator is transparent bulletproof glass, and on the other side is the windshield of the building. The Ayon Tower is the tallest building in Hanning, with a height of 600 fans. Look up from the elevator to get an unobstructed view of the city.
"Hand me the papers." Manager Zheng said.
Secretary Wu handed him the document in his hand, and after taking it, he took out a document with the English title - NARWHALS (narwhals) printed on the cover.
On the second page of the document is a photograph of a group of scientists in white coats surrounding a large hemispherical computer in the center.
It's a whole electronic brain, a hemispherical supercomputer. The surface is made up of a number of neatly arranged hexagons, each of which has a rectangular groove.
Almost all of the grooves have a black metal cuboid embedded in them, except that in this part facing the lens, three of the grooves in the middle are empty.
The corners of Manager Zheng's eyes twitched, as if he was angry, and he was irritated by the unexpected odds in the plan.
Secretary Wu caught a glimpse of the green tendons on his hands, and although he still maintained a smile on his face, he exuded an inexplicable and strange sense of oppression. Even if I have been with me for a long time, I can't help but stand on end.
Although Manager Zheng is only in his early thirties, he always puts on a smiling face on weekdays. But when he is truly angry, the look in his eyes alone is enough to make people afraid. In the face of that sense of oppression, even fierce beasts have to be afraid of three points.
The ring and little fingers of his right hand trembled again, and he clenched his fingers so hard in annoyance that his joints clicked.
[Gang of Three.....]
He put the papers away and looked up at the distance of the city.
[I don't remember any feuds the company had with these guys......]
When the elevator was lowered below the 13th floor, the elevator hall, which had been well-lit just a moment ago, dimmed and the sunlight was blocked by the surrounding buildings. Without the sunlight, Manager Zheng's face was reflected on the glass.
[Weird smile, eyes as frightening as a guillotine]
The elevator had been lowered to below the 9th floor, and before he reached the second floor, he asked the secretary, "When will the chairman come back?" β
"Next Wednesday's flight, about three o'clock in the afternoon, will be at Hanning airport."
"Hmm..."
After speaking, the two went to the second floor of the building. Out of the elevator hall is the ring corridor, which is surrounded by the roof of the lobby on the first floor, and is integrated with the hall. The first floor is mainly used for reception and ordinary business, and there is no elevator up and down.
The two then left the building and sat in the back seat of the Bentley sedan together. Manager Zheng leaned back on the seat, and the full leather pillow cushion was behind the cervical spine, which was very comfortable.
"What do you think of that.... Hiss.... What's that guy called on the news? Manager Zheng asked with his eyes closed, and he didn't remember the name after thinking about it for a long time.
"Daredevil." Secretary Wu took over and replied.
"Oh yes!" After hearing the name, he was obviously much more relaxed, and opened his eyes to look at Secretary Wu, "Do you think he will make a move?" β
Secretary Wu thought for a while, and then responded, "Yes." β
Hearing this answer, Manager Zheng laughed, and then leaned back on the seat pillow, closing his eyes and recuperating. The development of events was more interesting than he himself had predicted.
When the news first reported on this character, he was quite curious, and for a while he really thought that the man was a chivalrous man. But ever since the Night Demon had rescued El from his men, he had realized where the man had come from.
γThe remnant of the surname Guγ
At least when it comes to dealing with the Gang of Three, Aion has the same purpose as the Daredevil, which is to find out what the true intentions of the gang are. For the time being, it was in his best interest to keep the Night Demon behind, and it was not time to move him.
After about 40 minutes, the car drove out of the downtown area and gradually entered a sparsely populated place on the edge of the city.
Nearby, an industrial wasteland, long gone, except for the ruins of many steel behemoths, bellowing in the dim sun.
The car was on the dirt road for another while, and the driver slowly turned the steering wheel and drove it onto the gravel road. After stumbling for another six or seven minutes, they came to a pile of containers and pulled the car aside.
Several people got out of the car and walked towards one of the containers. The assistant stepped forward and opened the iron door of the container, and then several people walked in together.
Manager Zheng walked near the wall, stretched out his hand and groped on it for a while, then slid a small piece of the wall open. He looked at the fingerprint lock that was exposed inside, and pressed his right hand to it.
After the scan, the ground where they were standing suddenly moved, and the iron door behind them was automatically locked with a mechanical lock. At the foot of the foot was actually a lifting platform, on which several people stood and descended diagonally down the wall. After descending twenty meters, they came to a huge underground space.
Surrounded by dark blue steel walls, nearly 100 surgical laboratories are arranged neatly. Many experimenters in white coats came and went, busy with the work at hand.
Through the glass panes of the laboratory, it can be seen that in each room there is a robotic arm, and at the top of the arm is attached a sphere, on which are dozens of tiny probes, like the claws of a centipede.
Lying on the operating table were all kinds of men and women, wearing hospital gowns and deep into a coma, with a fixed frame for brain surgery on their heads.
And on these buildings, including the staff signs, there is a common English letter.
