Chapter 35: The Mystery of the Ghost Town (1)

After a three-day holiday, Lin Yuan returned to the idler life before awakening.

Sleep until you wake up naturally in the morning, order a cup of afternoon tea, make up for the various novels and comic plots that fell before, and by the way, give the author a big vote to add chicken legs. At night, I snuggled up on the couch, watched Audrey Hepburn's movie "Breakfast at Tiffany's", and waited for my favorite lines to appear. The focus is on late at night, drinking cola liver games until dawn, until the sky is dark, and then closing the curtains to sleep.

Sometimes, she would recall the details of Yang Zishen's intrusion, the knife against the back of his waist, the alien monster, the bloody paper ball, and his indifferent voice. What's even stranger is that her subconscious seems to be waiting for someone. The new phone doesn't have any contacts and communication records, but she is always expecting a ringtone; There was a box of medical kits under the couch, which she occasionally opened and looked at in a daze.

"Phoenix, Xu Xiaonian, what is your relationship?" Lin Yuan lay on the bed and repeatedly looked at the golden phoenix mask in her hand, which she had taken off from the phoenix's face that night in paradise.

"Why did I forget about Xu Xiaonian, if it was the brain's choice of amnesia, then I repeatedly stimulated the brain, and I should have remembered it a long time ago."

"My amnesia is not an autonomous choice of the brain, it should have an external force. Could it be that Xu Xiaonian is a member of the Phoenix Organization, and the Institute killed him, and in order to prevent me from retaliating, he forcibly tampered with my memory? ”

Suddenly, she woke up from her thoughts, and two pieces of paper appeared beside her pillow. She didn't have the habit of activating abilities at any time, she hurriedly probed the room and didn't find Fang Jin, for the first time, she felt that Fang Jin's ability was too terrifying, and she could kill herself at any time.

"If I don't want to die, I have to get into the habit of being vigilant." She said solemnly.

Although it is difficult for Fang Jin to shirk Yang Zishen's information, the actual materials in his hands are still very detailed, basically including Yang Zishen's life so far. Putting aside some of the content on the bright side, Lin Yuan picked out a few key pieces of information.

"When I was a child, I awakened my mind to manipulate the ability, and the virus infection rate once climbed to a critical point, and I officially became an infected person at the age of 15, and I was baptized as Noah, and I didn't live to be 30 years old, the reason is a mystery, and there is a possibility that my life span will be reduced." Yang Zishen is dying, what's going on, isn't he the strongest infected person ever, is it due to the high infection rate?

"Due to the rising infection rate in the body, Yang Zishen learned the secret method from Lin Jingsheng, and the detailed process is unknown." Yang Zishen he knows.... Dad, that makes sense, he takes extra care of himself.

"I haven't done any 'captures,' but I have a powerful earth-based ability when I awaken, and it's a mystery why." Yang Zishen admitted that he had devoured the virus, but the information said that he did not "capture" the behavior, which contradicts each other.

"Led the Hunter Squad (the exact team members are a mystery), participated in the battle for the rainforest slate, and captured the mother tree seedlings." What is the mother tree, what is the seedling, is it the tree with the slate in the center of the rainforest? All the archives about the infected are on the top floor of the library that they can't go to.

Lin Yuan took out a lighter from the drawer and walked into the toilet, burned all the materials, and threw the residue into the toilet and flushed it away: "Yang Zishen, what do you want to do." ”

The day after the end of the holiday, before dawn, Lin Hao woke up Lin Yuan: "There is a task, Bi Yao has arrived." ”

Bi Yao sat in the driver's seat of the Land Rover, handed Lin Hao an eye mask and earmuffs, and pouted, the meaning was obvious. Lin Hao sat in the back seat and took it for himself without saying a word.

"Where to go, why don't I need to be blindfolded." Lin Yuan sat in the co-pilot's seat, yawning against the window, it was only six o'clock in the morning, and her mind was not clear.

"The prison of the intested, a ghost town. You're a member of the Order team, and the ghost town is governed by us, so of course you don't need to. Bi Yao said as he started the car and drove towards the center of the city.

Outside the car window is the familiar scenery of Beijing, the road is full of red lanterns, and the atmosphere of the New Year is everywhere. The vehicle was parked outside a lively mall, and the trio got out of the car and walked. Bi Yao led the way in front, Lin Yuan held Lin Hao's arm and followed behind, and under Bi Yao's intentional detour, he walked through for half an hour and walked into a deep alley, which was a dead end.

Bi Yao raised his hand, and the red ring shone brightly: "Only the Orderer's Ring can open the way, this is our territory." As the words fell, the closed wall turned into a virtual projection, and the three of them walked in front and back.

There was no light in the long passage, Lin Yuan turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone, the surrounding walls were black, and he couldn't see the material, and the top of the circle could still vaguely hear the sound of water. At the end of the road, a blinding light hit.

Lin Yuan looked out from the special glass, she was in the air, and she could see everything clearly from top to bottom.

This is a complete steel city, surrounded by solid walls on all sides, and the building materials are definitely not ordinary reinforced concrete, and the brightness density is visible to the naked eye. The city is densely populated with high-rise buildings that are interspersed with roads that resemble a military fortress. In the middle of the sky above the city is a floating covered bridge and control room.

"Can I lift it?" Lin Hao said loudly, although he couldn't hear or see, they had been staying in place for a while, and they should have arrived.

"Yes, this is not a place where you can break the rules at will, Lin Hao." Bi Yao said coldly, he hadn't forgotten about Alpha.

"Section Chief Bi, the entire ghost town is your territory, what can I do." Bi Yao's eyes quickly contracted to adapt to the bright light, and after looking around, he couldn't help but sigh: "It is worthy of being a ghost town, the last shelter for the vicious infected." ”

Like the park, there is no shadow of high technology here, and the light of the city is not a power source, but a glazed stone. People live in the center of the city, and nine-tenths of the city is empty, and there are already many pedestrians on the streets, coming closer to the center of the city. Beyond the walls to above the dome, surrounded by white energy shields, huge glazed stones scattered throughout the city continuously transported energy.

Bi Yao led them to the central control room at the end of the covered bridge, and said solemnly: "Here are all the criminals in China who have been arrested and brought to justice by the orderly, and after the infected people who have committed a lot of murders are brought back to the research institute, the discipline team will sentence them according to the severity of the circumstances. There was no death penalty, and they were all exiled here before they could be released until the expiration of their term. ”

"Although it has a population of less than 10,000, it is not only a prison, but also a city. They live freely in the city and give birth to a number of newborns every year. Of course, the sin is not as good as the offspring, and the newborn will be brought to Paradise to be raised. ”

Lin Yuan understood that such a treatment could not curb crime, the infected could not get the slightest warning, and the ghost town was not a prison for them, but a haven to protect them from the guns of humans. "Why is there no death penalty?" she asked. ”

"The Convention on the Infected does not prohibit killing, and mass murder of infected people is not a good thing."

Lin Yuan then asked, "Are these criminals from the research institute?" ”

"No, there are less than 200 criminals from the Institute, mostly the second generation of the wild. They don't know how they became infected, and we've always suspected that it was Agent X produced by the Phoenix Order. ”

Sure enough, Lin Yuan said secretly, Lu Yang had long known that Alpha was Fang Jin. If a large number of wild second generations who are not under the control of the research institute are awakened, then Fang Jin, who is already in a state of death, cannot be listed as the first and only suspect at all. Bi Yao already knew that he had returned to the research institute to investigate, no wonder Lin Hao was so anxious to kill Alpha, so Lin Hao should have known that Alpha was Fang Jin!

"Doubt? Didn't you interrogate? Lin Hao asked, although he knew a lot about ghost towns, he didn't expect that the Phoenix Organization was also involved.

"Of course they were interrogated, and they all forgot about what happened before they became infected." Bi Yao patiently answered the question, and the cigarette in his mouth sparked: "Ghost Face is their king, and your mission this time is to contact Ghost Face and get a string of passwords." ”

Hearing this, Lin Yuan stopped and snorted coldly: "Bi Yao, I shouldn't have offended you. ”

Bi Yao looked at the rows of buildings under the covered bridge, and said softly: "This is the joint order of the chairman and Lu Yang, they think that you are special, and only you can be qualified for this task." He lifted the brim of his hat and turned to look at Lin Yuan: "You don't have a choice." ”

"The Code of the First Research Institute, all infected people have the right to choose freely, and under general conditions it cannot be forced." Lin Yuan glared back at him without showing weakness, this was a fatal task, and the level was at least S-level.

Bi Yao lit a cigarette and smoked it, his eyes were gloomy: "Under special circumstances, if the chief is not there, the joint appointment of two or more chairmen can be enforced." ”

Lin Hao still had that serious look, and patted Lin Yuan's shoulder to show comfort: "No matter where you run, you just end up running into yourself." This is the line in "Breakfast at Tiffany's", Lin Hao is responsible for monitoring Lin Yuan, and seeing that she only watches this movie every night, he deliberately turned it over and over again.

He crossed Lin Yuan, stepped forward to block between the two, and stuffed the blindfold and earmuffs into Bi Yao's hands: "We need the most detailed information and a flawless disguise. ”

At this point, Lin Yuan still didn't understand anything, he was jointly calculated! The chairman of the order team, Lu Yang, Bi Yao, and Lin Hao are all insiders, and they planned all this together for that string of passwords, and Yang Zishen has been taken away by Lu Yang, and he is isolated.

Bi Yao shrugged his shoulders and breathed a sigh of relief: "Of course, everything is ready. You're new faces from the Thirteen Sections, and you're going to mix in as criminals, and no one knows you inside. ”

The three of them walked into the control room at the end of the bridge, which was full of sophisticated mechanisms, not electronic instruments, similar to the structure of traditional mechanisms. Three middle-aged men with tigers on their backs are sitting around fighting the landlord, with snoozing wolves, lions, and tigers embroidered behind their ears.

Bi Yao walked over, took out the card in the hand of the embroidered tiger strong man and held it in his hand, leaned on his shoulder and then played: "This time there is an S-level mission, which requires your cooperation, big wolf, yellow lion, and little tiger." ”
