Chapter 250: Overnight
"I wouldn't want to do it if I could. But Deputy Commander Li Tong, friend, I want to save! Lin Ci said in a deep voice: "As for the jade plate, I will find a way to take it back again." β
"Brother Lin, that's Shi Longfei, if something falls into his hands, how can it be so easy to get it back. Moreover, now I am not alone in the decision. Even if I am willing to help you, I can't just hand you the jade saucer, unless ......"
Lin Ci raised his head: "Unless what?" β
Da Da Da β
Cheng Xiao, who was leaning against the wall with his eyes closed, suddenly heard a sound of footsteps. Immediately the image of high heels tapping on the ground appeared in my mind, and the footsteps were so swaggering that looking at the entire building, there was only one person who could take such steps.
"Here's the trouble." Cheng Xiao muttered and opened her eyes. Turning his head, a figure on the other side of the corridor came straight up, not Vice Minister Ma Ling.
Behind Ma Ling is a team of black dogs led by Zhang Can. Looking at it, Cheng Xiao's eyes narrowed, and they were all captain-level figures. Cheng Xiao stretched out her hand and pressed the wall lightly, and the two hands that were originally hugging each other let go and greeted her.
Ma Ling and the others immediately stopped, glanced at Cheng Xiao who was blocking the road, and the deputy minister held up his glasses and said, "Instructor Cheng, what does this mean?" β
Cheng Xiao said casually: "Minister Ma, I don't know those twists and turns. I'll just make it clear, Deputy Commander Li Tong is inside, and he must not want to be disturbed. If you just pass by, I'll give it to you and apologize to you in person afterwards. But if you're going to go in, then I'm sorry, I can't let you in. β
Ma Ling said coldly: "Instructor Cheng, if you don't have amnesia, you should remember that I am the deputy minister!" β
"Well, I'm not old enough for Alzheimer's yet." Cheng Xiao nodded.
"Then please get out of the way!"
Cheng Xiao said categorically: "Didn't I say it clearly enough? β
"Instructor Cheng, are you crazy? I'm a deputy minister, don't I have the qualifications to go in? Ma Ling took a step forward and said, "You hurry up and get out of the way, otherwise, I will ask the committee to see if you are qualified to continue to be this instructor." β
"That will be for later, but for now, please wait here. Unless, with the order of Deputy Commander Li Tong, I will give way. Cheng Xiao didn't let a single step.
At this time, Zhang Can stepped forward and said lightly: "Instructor Cheng, I heard that there are many of your students among the white crows. But do you think you're the only one who can stop us? β
Before Cheng Xiao could answer, a voice sounded behind them: "Otherwise, count us in and see if we can stop you?" β
Ma Ling immediately turned around, and behind them, Li Yuanqian walked over. Behind him, there are Bai Yu, Xiao Wei, Pang Hao and others.
This was not the result that Ma Ling wanted, she frowned and said, "What do you want to do?" Where is your discipline? β
Li Yuanqian disagreed, and sneered: "I have never been a law-abiding person, not to mention that when it comes to discipline, I would like to ask Minister Ma, did Deputy Commander Li Tong invite you in?" β
Ma Ling pointed to the room and said, "I'm Hua. Xia's senior generals naturally have the responsibility to understand the possible harm to Hua. Any suspicious actions by Natsu. β
"I think you're trying to make trouble."
"Presumptuous!" Zhang Can shouted, "Li Yuanqian, clean your mouth for me!" β
Suddenly, the door of the room opened, and Deputy Commander Li Tong walked out, "Huh" and said, "What are you doing?" Minister Ma, are you here too? β
Behind him, Lin Ci and Jin Shengjie walked out of the room one after another. It seemed that they had finished talking, and Ma Ling was even more angry, annoyed that Cheng Xiao and Li Yuanqian were all to blame for the trouble, and immediately said: "Deputy Commander Li Tong, General Zhang sent me here and specially asked me to understand the content of your conversation!" β
Deputy Commander Li Tong nodded: "It's reasonable, I'll have someone sort out a report and send it to you later, what do you think?" β
Ma Ling didn't have to think about it, and knew that the report sent by Deputy Commander Li Tong must have been just prevarication. But even if it was for show, she had to accept the report.
"Yes, but I have another thing." Ma Ling raised his hand and pointed at Lin Ci, "He is a dangerous person on our wanted list, I think it is too dangerous to let him haunt Dragon City like this, and he should be arrested immediately!" β
Lin Ci frowned, thinking that this woman was determined to disrupt the situation. Beside him, Jin Shengjie sneered at this time and said, "Minister Ma, I'm not dead yet." β
Jin Shengjie's meaning couldn't be more obvious, as long as he was here, couldn't he still look down on a Lin Xi.
Ma Ling glanced at Jin Shengjie, her gaze returned to Deputy Commander Li Tong, and said, "Then what does Deputy Commander Li Tong mean is to take full responsibility for this matter?" β
Lin Ci thought for a while, stepped forward and said, "Don't say it, I'll just go with you." β
This time, Ma Ling was a little surprised, Deputy Commander Li Tong coughed dryly, and said: "Brother Lin is the hero who got the jade disc back for us, and this time he brought relevant information about Shi Longfei." In any case, he should not be treated unreasonably. β
"Then he must stay in my sight!"
Deputy Commander Li Tong looked at Lin Ci, the latter nodded, and Deputy Commander Li Tong said, "Then be it, he can let you take it away." However, he had to stay in the building. β
Dingββ
The elevator stopped, and the doors opened to both sides, appearing in front of Lin Ci, a straight passage. The walls on both sides of the passage have built-in lighting. The light came through the walls, soft but bright, illuminating the passage.
There are no windows, it's a completely sealed space. Above the passage, there are weapons platforms every ten meters. An automatic weapon with a camera device that moves the muzzle of the gun whenever someone passes by, scanning the person who passes by. If it is not within its authority, it will attack immediately.
If Li Tong hadn't said that he was not allowed to leave the building, Lin Ci would almost have thought that he would be sent to prison.
Walking out of the passage, Ma Ling saw the vigilant look on Lin Ci's face, and smiled secretly: "Don't worry, you will be safe here." β
Lin Xi smiled silently, he couldn't believe that this person would be so kind.
Not to mention the extreme stance of the Trinity when fighting Shi Longfei, the reggae stance provided by Aga alone is enough to disable all weapons and facilities that rely on electricity.
At the end of the passage is an automatic door, flanked by black wolf guards on both sides. They look ahead like puppets. Despite the sign on their chests that belonged to Black Wolf, the two men were clearly a little different from the rest of their colleagues.
They are real killers and will not hesitate to do so. Because in their eyes, Lin Ci can't see half of humanity, and some of them are just extremely cold light.
It was a specially trained killing machine, and it may have had some kind of nerve removal surgery to make them look like machines.
Lin Ci thought to himself, obviously there are still many secrets hidden in the black wolf, and it is by no means as simple as a mobile unit.
Ma Ling raised her hand and pressed it on the palm print machine in front of the door. After the palm print was scanned, the automatic door opened silently, and inside was a living room with simple decoration but a high-end atmosphere everywhere.
"Please, Mr. Lin."
Lin Ci walked in generously, she glanced at Zhang Can behind her, the latter had a hesitant expression on his face, Ma Ling knew what he was thinking, shook his head, and Zhang Can stayed outside. The door was closed, and there were only Ma Ling and Lin Ci in the safe house.
"It's okay not to let your men in? Aren't you afraid that I'll be bad for you? Lin Ci sat down on the sofa, and on the table in front of the sofa, there was wine and coffee, the coffee was still hot, and it was obviously prepared before they came.
Seeing that Lin Ci's expression was restless, Ma Ling smiled and said, "Hehe, you'd better not have any bad thoughts, if something happens to me, Li Tong's situation will become very unfavorable." β
Lin Ci spread his hands: "I don't understand, what does this have to do with Deputy Commander Li Tong." As far as I know, he's always been credited with this position, do you think you can do better than him? β
"No, in terms of experience in dealing with xenos, no one is more qualified for his position than Li Tong. It's just that in extraordinary times, the strength of human beings has been greatly weakened, and the increasing population and the invasion of deformed beasts have made China. Xia is overwhelmed, and we need a resolute, ruthless leader. β
"I see, but I don't agree with you."
"Is it because I let people arrest you?" Ma Ling chuckled and sat down and looked at Lin Ci.
"I'll admit, I didn't know enough about you before that. After Li Tong used certain connections to dismantle the operation that transferred you. I've read some of the information about you carefully, and it's true that you're not the same kind of person as the Xenomorphs, but your strength is too important, especially in the midst of the night. Summer. β
"I know what you're going to say, but if you want to convince me to enter your so-called biochemical laboratory, this excuse alone won't work, I'll help Hua. Xia He helps you, these are two different things. β
"Lin Ci, you are a smart person, if Hua and Xia recruit you, are you willing to join?"
"Director Ma, are you trying to recruit me to join again?"
"No, join the military department."
"It can be said that in the current environment, such treatment can only be enjoyed at the level of a general. On top of that, we're going to remove your wanted warrant and won't send you to the lab. β
Lin Ci sneered in his heart, but said as usual: "It seems that your conditions are very attractive." β
"And I promise, Li Tong can't give you special rights."
Lin Ci sat down slightly and said, "Then I'm very curious, why did Director Ma recruit me for the military department?" β
Ma Ling raised her eyebrows lightly: "Is the answer one of the factors that Mr. Lin considers?" β
"No, I'm just curious. If you can, please give me time to think about it. β
Ma Ling stood up and smiled, "No problem, but please don't make me wait too long." β
Next, Ma Ling took Lin Ci around again and introduced the various facilities in the safe house. It has everything you need, so you can inform the guards outside. Except that you are not allowed to go out without my permission, you are free here. β
Lin Ci smiled: "This is also freedom? β
Ma Ling said lightly: "In this world, there has never been pure freedom, only limited freedom in the rules, what do you think?" β
Lin Xi spread his hands, and at this time, the pager by the door rang: "Director Ma, Mr. Lin has a visitor." β
Ma Ling walked over and asked, "Who is it?" β
"Captain Li Yuanqian of the White Crow, and several other members."
"Let them in." With that, Ma Ling opened the door.
Outside the door, Li Yuanqian was carrying a bottle of wine in his hand, and Pang Hao was holding a paper bag in his hand, which should be filled with food, and the aroma could be smelled from all over the forest.
When Li Yuanqian saw Ma Ling, he suddenly became interested and said: "Yo, it's Director Ma, isn't it possible that he is here to rob people?" β
Ma Ling frowned, "Li Yuanqian, please pay attention to your words." β
Then he said to Lin Ci: "I'll go first, if you think about it, you can tell me at any time." β
She walked out of the room, nodded to the two guards, and left with Zhang Can and the others. Li Yuanqian deliberately saluted Ma Ling's upturned buttocks, and the latter immediately realized it, turned around and glared at him angrily. Li Yuanqian laughed and walked into the room with wine.
Other mermaids rushed in.
The door closed, Pang Hao put the paper bag on the table, turned around and shouted, "Okay, orange." This place is high-class enough, much better than our barracks. β
Li Yuanqian sat down, unscrewed the cap of the bottle, and shouted, "Hurry up and bring the cup, this is the treasure I have hidden for a long time." If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have taken it out. β
Lin Ci frowned and said, "When did you become an alcoholic?" β
"What drunkard, man."
Lin Ci walked over to the wine cabinet: "Where do I have time to enjoy this, I don't know how long I slept before the first impact." When I woke up, I kept on the run, and those monsters chased after my commander all the way. β
Li Yuanqian smiled: "It sounds like an interesting story." β
Lin Ci took out a few wine glasses from the wine cabinet, put them on the table and said, "Where is it interesting, I almost can't come back." β
Li Yuanqian poured the wine into one cup after another, then picked up one of the glasses and said, "No matter what, I can still see you, it's worth a drink." Don't get me wrong, I don't like you kid until now, but they hate it more than anyone else. β
"Me too, don't think I'll like you princeling." Lin Ci also picked up a cup.
Pang Hao, Xiao Wei, and Bai Yu also picked up a glass of wine, so several wine glasses touched together, and everyone toasted. Lin Ci stuck out his tongue after drinking and said, "This wine is so spicy." β
"Look at your cowardice, you know that you don't usually drink." Li Yuanqian pointed at Lin Ci and laughed.
Lin Ci didn't argue, patted the fat man on the shoulder and said, "It's very hard for you to follow this guy." β
Pang Hao laughed and said: "Fortunately, although the captain is cheap and venomous, he is at the forefront every time he fights, and he is also the one who is the most seriously injured, so everyone obeys him." β
Lin Ci looked at Li Yuanqian unexpectedly: "You have really changed, when did you become so hardworking." β
Li Yuanqian held the wine glass, looked at himself reflected in the glass, and said, "No way, if I don't fight the bastard brother's share, the pressure on the old man's side will be quite great." β
"Don't talk about that."
Li Yuanqian sat up straight and said, "If you go to the metropolis, won't you save Han Mengdie's stinky girl." What about people, have you been saved? β
Lin Ci nodded: "She came back with me, speaking of her, is Dr. Han Zhikong in Dragon City?" β
