Chapter 8: Sudden Changes
Came to the sixth day of the three-body world.
In the evening, Pang Xuelin finished eating, returned to the room, got on the net for a while, felt sleepy, and lay on the bed, listening to the sound of the waves crashing on the reef, Pang Xuelin fell asleep unconsciously.
Bang bang bang –
I don't know how long I slept, but suddenly there was a knock on the door.
"Who?"
Pang Xuelin opened his eyes in a daze, got up and opened the door.
I saw Grant standing at the door of the room with an anxious face, and said, "Pang, bring the Lord's information and go to the attic!" ”
Pang Xuelin's heart chuckled, he woke up instantly, and hurriedly said, "Okay, you wait for me!" ”
As he spoke, he returned to the room and lifted the alloy box containing the materials of the Three-Body Civilization.
Pang Xuelin thought about it, and then took out the loaded Glock 17 from the drawer of the bedside table and pinned it behind his waist.
He looked at the time just now, and at four o'clock in the morning, Fred sent Grant to look for him at this time, and asked him to bring the alloy box, which only showed that the location where they were hiding was exposed, and danger was approaching them.
Pang Xuelin carried the alloy box and followed Grant to the attic.
In the attic, Fred holds a cigarette in his mouth and stands in front of the computer while observing, holding a gun with a muffler against the head of the landlord and his wife.
The landlord and his wife knelt on the ground, their heads in their hands, trembling with fear.
Several images are separated from the computer screen, which is provided by a distributed infrared sensor.
On the green screen, Pang Xuelin could clearly see that soldiers in special combat uniforms and armed with guns were lurking around the homestay, slowly approaching them.
Pang Xuelin frowned and asked, "Fred, what's the matter?" ”
Fred appeared calmer and said, "Man, we're exposed. ”
Grant said palely, "They ...... How did they find it? Could it be that the Judgment Day has really been ......? ”
Fred nodded and said, "I guess Evans and they are probably more than lucky, although this B&B is easy to defend and difficult to attack now, I'm afraid it's not so easy for us to escape." ”
Pang Xuelin said in a deep voice: "Then what should we do?" ”
"We were surrounded by people from Delta, I guess they were transferred from Guantanamo, but thanks to the distributed infrared sensor radar I installed around us in advance, we didn't get dumplings silently," Fred said. Now the other party probably doesn't know that we have discovered them, so we will destroy the Lord's message first. I'll see them later, I'm not without arrangements here these days! ”
Pang Xuelin and Grant glanced at each other, and Grant hesitated a little: "Fred, do you really want to destroy our communication with the Lord?" ”
Fred said, "This is what Comrade Evans has repeatedly emphasized before, and the information about the Lord must not be allowed to fall into the hands of the human government!" ”
Grant hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay then!" ”
Pang Xuelin did not hesitate, quickly opened the alloy box and took out the hard disk from it.
Anyway, he had copied nearly 30G of information from the hard disk to his computer in advance, and at the same time uploaded it to the Internet, so he didn't have to worry about destroying the hard drive would cause big trouble to human beings.
Fred had already prepared the fuel, poured a small half bottle of vodka onto the hard drive, and then pulled out a lighter and lit it.
The flames burned rapidly, and the glow of the flames reflected Fred's slightly hideous face.
Fred turned.
Bang –
Bang –
Two slight gunshots directly shot the landlord and his wife in the head.
The two corpses fell directly to the floor, red blood mixed with white Huahua's brains flowing out.
Pang Xuelin and Grant both froze in place, never expecting Fred to surprise the killer.
"Fred, what are you doing? Why kill them? ”
Grant glared angrily, he had a very good chat with the couple these days, and he had already regarded the two as friends. He could accept Fred taking them hostage just now, but he didn't expect the other party to make such a dead move.
Fred said, "I'm sorry, Grant, these two old guys are a hidden danger, and it's a problem to keep them. Besides, since you are so upset with them, then I will send you to meet them too! ”
As he spoke, Fred suddenly turned his gun to Grant.
Bang –
A puff of green smoke came out of the muzzle, and half of Grant's Heavenly Spirit cover was lifted, and blood gushed out.
He stared at Fred with a pair of eyes, as if he didn't expect Fred to attack him again.
Almost at the same time, Pang Xuelin pulled Glock 17 from behind his waist and aimed it at Fred, shooting him twice.
Bang –
Bang –
The first shot hit Fred's right shoulder, and the second shot missed the target, seeing Fred quickly hand over the gun to his left hand, and at the same time turning the muzzle of the gun aimed at himself, Pang Xuelin quickly walked out of the attic door, turned around, hid in the shadow of the staircase, and aimed the muzzle at the attic door.
In the room, Fred's somewhat surprised and calm voice came: "Pang, I didn't expect you to bring a weapon with you, but unfortunately, your marksmanship is not good!" ”
Pang Xuelin said in a deep voice: "Fred, why? Why kill Grant? ”
Fred said lightly: "This is what Evans meant, before leaving the Judgment Day, Evans specifically told me that if we fail to escape the human government's net, before we are caught, we will first kill Grant and you, and then die with the human government army!" ”
"Why? Evans: Why did you kill us first? ”
Pang Xuelin was a little surprised.
Fred laughed and said, "Evans said, you and Grant know too many secrets, especially about the Lord, you must not be captured by humans alive!" ”
Pang Xuelin took a deep breath, he didn't expect Evans to calculate so deeply.
"So, during this time, the reason why you are so vigilant and place infrared radars around the B&B is not to escape in case of crisis, but to give you enough time to destroy the Lord's information and kill me and Grant when you are surrounded by human coalition forces?"
"Clever! It's the best mathematician in our Advent faction, I just didn't expect that, Pang, you would carry a weapon, but all this is meaningless, I still have ten kilograms of C4 bombs in my room, and in the past two days, I have successively bought more than 100 kilograms of gasoline from outside, packed it in small plastic bottles, and then wrapped in layers of plastic wrap, and I can't smell any peculiar smell. I put all this gas with those C4 bombs, and as soon as I press a button on my phone, everything here goes up in smoke......"
Pang Xuelin took a deep breath, he didn't know if Fred was interfering with himself or if he really planted a gasoline bomb in this building, but he had to admit that his heart was messed up by Fred's words.
He thought that he would be safe when he escaped from the Judgment Day, but he didn't expect to encounter such a crisis in the last ten hours of the mission.
At this time, Fred continued: "Pong, remember the story I told you that day when we were in the lifeboat? ”
Pang Xuelin was slightly stunned and said, "You are talking about the massacre of African tribes?" ”
"Yes, there's a follow-up to that story, when I was removed from the seals and then I went back to the United States, and I spent three full years investigating the refinery, the pipeline, and all the officials, tycoons, executives, lawyers, and then another year, killing more than 30 people in connection with the case," Fred said. In the end, I was rounded up by the FBI and surrounded in an abandoned factory, a bit like today's scene, the FBI mobilized the most elite HRT troops to round me up, and at that time I thought I was going to die, it was Evans who suddenly appeared to save me, otherwise, I would have been a corpse a few years ago. My life was saved by Evans, and I should give it back to him today...... We have about two minutes to go, and the people of the delta are already within fifty meters of here, and when they come in, we will die with them! ”
Pang Xuelin took a deep breath and tried to calm his fast-beating heart.
In any case, Fred must not be allowed to detonate the bomb.
He quietly took off his coat and said, "Fred, aren't you wondering why I carry a weapon with me?" ”
Fred was slightly stunned: "Why?" Aren't you here to deal with that bunch of guys out there? ”
Pang Xuelin laughed and said: "No, the main thing is to save your life at a critical moment, just like just now, if I don't have a gun, I'm afraid I will die under your gun like Grant." By the way, there's one more thing I forgot to tell you! ”
"What's the matter?"
Pang Xuelin said: "Actually, it's useless for you to burn that hard drive just now, I will copy all the information in it to my computer, and then upload it to the mailbox, I set those emails to send them automatically, and tomorrow, all the information about the three-body civilization will appear on the desks of the leaders of various countries!" ”
Boom -
Something in the attic was thrown to the ground by Fred.
Pang ...... You, how dare you betray the Lord?! ”
"Betrayal, it doesn't count, I never believed in this so-called Lord from the beginning, by the way, do you know why the Lord gave up on us? Haha, because Evans knows the Achilles' heel of the Lord, he doesn't trust us! ”
"No...... Impossible, Pang, I'm going to kill you, kill you! Fred's angry voice and footsteps could be heard from inside the attic.
"It's now!"
Pang Xuelin threw his clothes to the door, and at the same time, his body fell down instantly, leaned out half of his body at the door, and shot quickly at the dark shadow in the room!
Bang bang bang –
Gunshots rang out throughout the building, and blood splattered from Fred's body.
At the same time, Pang Xuelin only felt numb on his body, and felt that half of his body had no strength.
But he gritted his teeth and fired all the bullets in Glock 17.
Then, Pang Xuelin lay on the ground, gasping for breath, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of his right chest, which had a wound on it, gurgling with blood blisters.
Pang Xuelin only felt dizzy, and faintly, when he heard the sound of footsteps coming from downstairs, his eyelids fell, and he gradually lost consciousness.
