In the small conference room, Alexandra and Julian were there.

Even Tao Zhu and Braden, who were not there just now, held their teacups and sat on the edge of the wall.

It's really the life of a retired old cadre, the corner of Vika's mouth twitched.

She wanted to ask: Both, do you lack melon seeds and peanuts?

Of course, she didn't have the courage to say it, that is, to slander it in her heart.

Ethan followed from behind. He gasped and said intermittently, "Whew...... Whew, still ...... Good. You guys........ It's all still there. ”

"Don't worry, anyway, we've been idle lately." Julian said, leaning back in his chair. God knows he's almost moldy.

Uncle Braden asked, "Did you find anything?" ”

"The body was dried." Ethan said.

Joshua asked, "Is it like a mummy that coats your whole body with preservatives and then air-dries?"

"No, it'.......s more like a dehumidifier, such as making sausages, dried fish, beef jerky, etc.

Vika rolled her eyes, "Great. For the next period of time, I can cross these things out of the recipe. ”

"To deal with a grown man, and a slender asteroid man. Household dehumidifiers are too small. Julian tapped his pen on the table, "Food factories with large dehumidifiers will have 24-hour monitoring in order to control the quality of food. ”

"Perhaps, not with meat." Tao Zhu said slowly.

Uncle Braden made a list: "Medicinal herbs, handicrafts, paper, tea, tobacco, wood '.......'"

"Wood!" Vika and Alessandra looked at each other.

The Milton family, generations of lumberjacks.

You must get up and go immediately.

If the action is fast, perhaps, Conrad is still alive.

"When you get out of the car, turn this on." Tao Zhu threw a copper-colored metal ball to each of them.

........

Outside the forest,

Before getting out of the car, Alexandra asked, "Officer Wang, do you understand the operation method?"

Wang Dazhui nodded: "I probably understand." If you can't control it, choose automatic mode. ”

Vika gave a thumbs up: "If you really can't dodge, you press the yellow button, which is the emergency avoidance mode." ”

With that, she turned around and was about to get out of the car.

There was a weak tugging sensation from the corner of the clothes behind him.

She turned her head to look.

Wang Dazhui's cheeks, which were not covered by hair, were already crimson at this time, and he said in a voice that was almost squeezed out of his throat: "You, be careful yourself." ”

Vika nodded, "You too." Remember, if you can't escape, press the emergency avoidance button. ”

"Yes."

Without further ado, Vika didn't say anything more, she jumped out of the car and pulled out the copper ball.

The copper ball slowly unfolded, drawing several long bands that intertwined and spun upwards along her arms.

The figures of the two disappeared in front of the car in an instant.

Vika looked at himself as if he had become Iron Man.

Through the lenses in front of her eyes, she could see Alexandra.

Sister Aya is so cool!

The other man pointed to her in the left direction.

Together, the two quietly approached Milton's big house.

Wang Dazhui changed the appearance of the sedan into a new off-road van and rushed to Milton's house from the other end.

He started honking his horn and playing rock music.

A forest of birds and beasts was startled.

"Which damn bunny is living impatiently?" Several men from the Milton family ran out.

In front of the front of the provocative "wagon" hung a mocking remark against the Milton man.

The last time Vika saw a couple of grown men from the Milton family and a few older boys were on hoverbikes or bushmobiles.

Armed with homemade guns, they headed straight for the transformed sedan.

I have to say that Wang Dazhui really has a hand in pulling hatred.

The two stealthy men entered the house through the front and back doors respectively.

The floor is made of pine wood, with old and new planks on it, and it looks like a coal miner's overalls sewn with large patches.

Vika walked carefully on the floor, trying not to make a sound.

She wasn't sure if there was anyone else inside.

Before obtaining a search warrant, their actions were illegal trespasses.

However, if Conrad can be found, or leave quietly. The analysis team will be able to help them with the follow-up procedures.

Vika carefully inspected all the floors. Half of the likelihood is that the place where the person is held is a cellar or an attic.

However, given the remoteness of the area, it is possible to trap the victim in a closed room.

Vika searched the carpet for a long time, and finally, she was attracted to a small room with its own.

Without him, because the other doors are very rough, full of natural bumps and wormholes of trees.

Only this door looks finer, and although it is not carved, the surface is ground very flat and smooth, without a single burr.

Vika cautiously walked in.

"Nat?"

Vika was startled and almost tried to run away.

But it occurred to her that she was now invisible.

It was as if the wind had blown the door open.

That's right, she's a gust of wind.

Vika glanced at it, and there was a bed in the room with a woman lying on it.

"Hello. Little girl. "The woman was lying on the bed.

Vika didn't say anything, and the losses she had suffered from the Milton family were still fresh in her memory.

A police officer who has studied a little psychology was actually reversed by a group of ordinary people.

Upon reflection, Vika felt that she was overconfident.

After learning this lesson, she realized that she should not easily define the other person because of their appearance, clothing, words and deeds, etc., so as to influence her own judgment.

"I'm Dinah, what about you?"

Vika held her breath as she took a closer look at the room.

The woman had tubes in her slender pale arms. Attached to the side is a crude life support system.

"Don't be afraid, I can't see you, but you smell good." The woman continued.

Vika took a closer look at the system and saw that the back of the device was connected to the wall.

She crept into the wall, then lifted her foot and slowly pressed it in.

There was a slight rattling sound.

A small hole appeared.

"Are you hungry? I also have a pack of small cookies next to my desk. ”

Vika still didn't want to answer Dinah. She turned on the flashlight function of the terminal and looked inside.

There is something.

She continued to gently dig a hole carefully along the edge of the medical device.

Inside, in a small room, lay a man.

Despite his sallow face, Vika recognized him - Conrad. Adenauer.

He was unconscious.

Still, alive.

Vika immediately raised the terminal: "Sister Aya, I found it, I'll send you the location." ”

"Roger." Alexandra also found a wood dehumidifier in the warehouse, and when she received Vika's message, she immediately dialed another number, and they needed support.

Vika enlarged the wall to see the whole picture of the homemade device.

The circulatory systems of the two men are connected by a set of life-support devices.

Neither Vika nor Alexandra are medical professionals, and if the tube were to be removed rashly, it would probably threaten their lives.

At this time, Wang Dazhui sent bad news again.

[They have already found out that something is wrong, and a few people have returned.] 】
