Chapter 18: See Li Hong Again
"What?" Yan Junli immediately looked down at his feet. [No pop-ups. γ
"The glowing floor, the boxy platform, the size of a villa." Yang Wenbin judged, "That's right, we should be standing directly above the mother machine now." β
"So the entire computer host is buried underneath?" Yan Junli squatted down and shone down with a flashlight, and the light was instantly buried in the darkness, and he couldn't see what was below at all.
"Come here! I think I've found the power supply! Yang Wenbin shouted.
Yan Junli immediately walked over to Yang Wenbin, "Where?" β
Yang Wenbin pointed to the opposite side, relying on the faint light of the flashlight, he could vaguely see a thick optical cable embedded in the gap on the opposite side, which was tightly connected to the platform they were standing on. There is a huge iron plate stuck in the optical fiber at the interface.
"It's a little too tall here." Yan Junli muttered, "But if I can find a way to get through, the bullets in the magazine should be enough to destroy that steel plate." β
At this moment, as soon as Yan Junli's words fell, a gunshot suddenly sounded in the empty environment, and then a bullet flew towards Yan Junli. Yan Junli was startled and hurriedly flashed to the side, but he was still scratched by the bullet.
Then a familiar voice sounded in the darkness.
"You dare to touch it!"
Yan Junli was taken aback, and took two steps back with Yang Wenbin. Out of the darkness came a figure, gun in hand, muzzle pointed at them, eyes staring at them like a steppe wolf staring at their prey.
Who is this person who is not Li Hong?
"Xiaohong?" Yang Wenbin cried out in surprise.
Li Hong also seemed to be taken aback when he saw that it was these two people, but he quickly regained his composure, and the gun in his hand turned to aim at Yang Wenbin, as if he knew very well that this would threaten two people at the same time.
"I thought you were killed by me." Li Hong's tone was very calm, and he didn't seem to be really surprised that Yan Junli escaped death.
Yan Junli also immediately held the gun in his hand and pointed it at Li Hong, "Why are you here?" β
"This should be asked of you in reverse." Li Hong replied coldly, "I received the clown's meeting notice, and I thought it was a little strange, just in case, I came to the mother machine to check it, but I didn't expect it to be really weird." β
A layer of fine beads of sweat had already appeared on Yan Junli's forehead, and he cautiously moved in the direction of confronting Li Hong. But Yan Junli has an unarmed Yang Wenbin next to him, and his right arm is still bleeding from the bullet, no matter from which point of view, Yan Junli's disadvantage is overwhelming.
"Put the gun down, Xiaohong." Yan Junli tried to convince his former subordinates, "There is no one else here, you put down the gun, and we will talk about what is going on together." β
"Nope." Li Hong refused neatly, he looked at Yan Junli with anger in his eyes, "Talk? What else do you want to talk about now? Tell me how the two of you are going to die! β
Yan Junli just wanted to speak, but was suddenly stopped by Yang Wenbin beside him. Yang Wenbin glanced at Yan Junli, walked to the front, and looked at Li Hong, who was very unfriendly.
"Xiaohong, I'm going to tell you something a little unbelievable." Yang Wenbin stiffened, took a deep breath and said sincerely, "That is, even if you do something like that, I-we still believe in you." Xiaohong I know is definitely not someone who would do such a thing, so I hope to talk to you about it, and you can tell us whatever happens. We can still help you. β
As soon as Li Hong heard Yang Wenbin's words, he burst out laughing, as if he had heard something extremely ridiculous, "My God, I always knew that you were innocent and kind, but I didn't expect you to be so naΓ―ve." I almost killed both of you, and I wouldn't hesitate to do it now if I had the chance! You still don't understand? I've never been from your side from the beginning, Doctor Yang, I've been infiltrating as an undercover agent since you were even messing with Yan Junli! β
"Yan Junli also used to go undercover and work as a drug dealer in the drug gang, so it doesn't mean that he is a criminal now!" Yang Wenbin retorted loudly.
"How dare you say that!" Li Hong also roared back angrily, "Yang Wenbin, have you understood me?" Do you think you know a single strand of my hair? How dare you casually compare me to him! β
"But at least I believe in you, and I believe in him! I just don't understand...... Have you been acting for so much time we've spent together? Are you saying it's all fake? I don't believe it! Yang Wenbin took a deep breath, forced himself to lower his tone, and said in an almost pleading tone, "Xiaohong, I just want to know, why are you doing this?" Even if you work for the clown, Xia Baiyan is already dead! Since you are here, you should know that the chip that controls the clown is already in my hand, and it was given to me by Xia Baiyan himself before he died! β
Before Li Hong could say anything, Yan Junli suddenly opened his mouth.
"It's because of Lili, right?"
Li Hong was stunned when he heard this.
"Who's Lili?" Yang Wenbin asked Yan Junli softly.
"His biological sister, Li Lili. He was only four and a half years old when he died. Yan Junli said in a low voice, "I told you her story, Lili was raped and killed by gangsters." We couldn't save her in the end. β
"How dare you bring this up!" Li Hong shouted excitedly and fired a bullet at them.
Yan Junli pressed Yang Wenbin is a roll, and the two hid behind the wall.
"I know she's dead, I'm sorry!" Yan Junli shouted through the wall, "But you should also know that it's not my fault!" β
"Don't come with me like this!" Li Hong became even more angry, as if the anger in his chest had been accumulated for a long time, "You were the only person I could ask for help at that time!" I'm betting Lili's life on you! But what about you? Don't think I don't know, you delayed Lili's investigation because of the other cases assigned to you by Li Wenyao! β
"What? But it's none of your business, it's not your fault. Yang Wenbin looked at Yan Junli beside him with an incredible expression.
But before Yan Junli could say anything more, Li Hong's side kept shooting at this side, and Yan Junli occasionally tried to fight back, but there was no point in wasting bullets.
