Chapter 611: Serial Assassination
Qiao Lu put the bumblebee in the parking lot and began to walk through the steel forest-like city.
Each branch is a street, and the buildings hang like leaves on both sides of the road, forming an intricate network of layers above and below.
Pedestrians are like ants in this forest, climbing from tree to tree through branches, or from leaf to leaf.
Even the addresses in the city are XX trees, XX branches, XX leaves, and each building is marked in this way. People walk on the dizzying abyss all the time, as if there is no concept of the ground here.
This really makes the most of the space in the dungeon, spreads people out on different planes, and makes it possible for a very densely populated city without traffic jams.
In addition, pedestrians walk on tree branches, and vehicles drive directly in the air, and only land when they stop.
The fact that the two sides do not interfere with each other, and there are very few traffic accidents, which is also a major benefit of urban forest design.
Liu Peiqiang exclaimed: "We can let our urban designers come and learn about it, this kind of structure is much better than all of us squeezing into the ground." ”
"It's a very interesting design, indeed."
Qiao Lu looked at the abyss under the railings on both sides of the road, and could vaguely see that the bottom was the construction site, which was constantly expanding the area of the dungeon.
The morning sun shone into the city, separated by giant trees into pillars of light, gilding the traffic in the air with a golden glow.
Before Qiao Lu could enjoy this beautiful scenery, a 2B voice came from his ears:
"Be careful!"
Qiao Lu immediately threw Liu Peiqiang away, and the two fell to the ground together.
Then there was a loud bang, and a speeding car flew over the two of them, crashing into a nearby building.
Metal shards whizzed past them, roadside billboards were smashed into sieves by flying shards, and display materials that looked like clear glass tubes fell to the ground with a thud.
2B rushed to the crashed car for the first time, trying to catch the culprit of the crash, but the completely shattered and deformed body of the car was empty, only crackling electric sparks scurrying in the twisted metal.
"There's no one in the car!"
Qiao Lu and Liu Peiqiang stood up again and patted the dust on their bodies, and both of them were fine.
It's just that being in distress again in such a short period of time already makes them feel that something is obviously wrong.
"What do you think?" Liu Peiqiang asked Qiao Lu.
"We are obviously targeted, but the other party is not so blatant for the time being."
If he really wanted to kill Qiao Lu by any means, then there should be more than one car that hit him, at least dozens of cars together to be able to run into him.
At present, this level of attack is still expected, so Qiao Lu is still just pretending to be an ordinary person's reaction to dodge.
If the subsequent attacks intensify, Qiao Lu may no longer be able to hide his identity.
Many pedestrians gathered around, all looking at the scene of the accident with surprised expressions.
This kind of traffic accident usually only happens six or seven times a year, which is rarer than previous plane crashes, and naturally attracts many people to come and watch.
A few minutes later, two police cars whistled their sirens and descended from the sky, and several police officers stepped out of their cars and set up a cordon at the scene of the accident.
Their police uniforms flashed with the pattern of police lights, and the crowd of onlookers consciously moved out of the way when they saw it.
The policeman asked Qiao Lu: "You were next to you when the car crashed, were you not injured?" ”
"It's okay, it's just an ordinary traffic accident." Qiao Lu replied dryly.
Qiao Lu doesn't want to be involved in the investigation of the case and be monitored by the police system, but it is inconvenient for them.
"Really, you don't want to report the crime?" The policeman asked, confused.
"No, you can investigate the cause of the accident."
After speaking, Qiao Lu left the scene of the accident with Liu Peiqiang and 2B, leaving only the police and onlookers with a confused face.
————————————
After moving away from the scene of the accident and confirming that there was no surveillance around, Liu Peiqiang tried to contact other investigation teams to see how they were doing.
"How?" Qiao Lu asked.
Liu Peiqiang replied: "Other investigation teams have also been attacked to varying degrees, but they are all cleverly disguised as accidents, and the police have not yet opened a case for investigation." ”
"Sure enough, it was an assassination attempt against all of us."
Now Qiao Lu can be sure that all the people from the wandering earth are now under the surveillance of Zhizi.
That's why so many assassination attacks can be staged at the same time, and all cleverly disguised as accidents.
Although with the skills of the members of the Wandering Earth investigation team, they would not be so easily killed by this little trick, but it also seriously hindered their investigation operations, and it took a lot of energy just to prevent assassination.
"What kind of accidents did they have?" Qiao Lu asked further.
"Elevators falling, traffic accidents, billboards slipping, gates automatically closing, sewer covers opening, and so on."
"It's like death is coming."
There is no movie "Death is Coming" on the Wandering Earth, so Liu Peiqiang doesn't know what Qiao Lu is referring to.
However, these accidents have not been designed to be particularly complicated so far, so they were easily avoided by the members of the Wandering Earth Investigation Team.
But it is not known how far it will develop in the future.
Liu Peiqiang continued: "Judging from the current situation, the enemy should be able to manipulate electronic equipment and manipulate all possible hardware to launch an attack. The assassinations that have befallen other investigative teams have been caused by a malfunction of some kind of electronic equipment. ”
Including trying to crash into Qiao Lu's car, they are all driverless, and they have become quite popular in this era.
"We need to stay as far away from electronic devices as possible, not knowing what will become a murder weapon." Liu Peiqiang said vigilantly.
Qiao Lu shook his head and said, "That's impossible, this is an era when even paper can be accessed, and anything can attack us." ”
He is not joking, in this era, there is no such thing as computers and mobile phones, everything can be connected to the Internet, clothes, shoes, glasses, and even the floor tiles under the feet can pop up a display window.
Everything is wirelessly powered, and the power supply uses microwaves or other forms of electromagnetic oscillation beams to emit electrical energy, forming a power supply field within a certain range of space, and any electrical device within this range can use antennas or electromagnetic resonance coils to receive electrical energy.
Therefore, in the dungeon, there is nothing that is not electric, everything is an electronic device, which means that anything can be the next murder weapon.
This is the Grim Reaper, Qiao Lu is facing an invisible killer who can't be seen or touched!
