At the Golden Peacock Hotel, Wan Jie, the deputy captain of the adjudication team, walked to the door of Xu Le's suite and rang the doorbell.

"Team Xu, I've already bought the cigarettes, and I'll bring you one too." Wan Jie shouted at the door, although the Golden Peacock is a first-class hotel in Malawi, there is a big gap between the hardware and software facilities and the real five-star hotel, such as the sound insulation effect of the door and the wall is not satisfactory, and shouting through the door can also be heard by Captain Xu inside.

But there was no reply from the door.

"Maybe a bath in the bathroom?" Wan Jie bent down and put the bag in his hand to the door, took out the communication device and called Xu Le: "Team Xu, are you there?" I've brought you a handmade cigarette and put it outside the door, so I'll go back and rest if there's nothing to do?" ”

Still no reply.

Wan Jie frowned, his right eyelid jumped inexplicably, according to the regulations, when he went out on a mission, he must carry a communication device with him throughout the whole process until he returned to the base after the mission.

Then called several more times, still no response, Wan Jie began to feel uneasy, hurriedly rushed down the lobby to ask to see the surveillance video, and found that twenty minutes ago, Xu Le left the hotel alone.

Team Xu will never leave his room without special circumstances, and if there is any need, he will only call his subordinates and leave the hotel alone without any notice, which is not right.

Wan Jie immediately turned on the communicator and entered his own exclusive code, ready to apply for the location of Xu Le.

But halfway through the number, Wan Jie suddenly changed his mind and took out a satellite phone to call an acquaintance at the domestic headquarters.

"Lao Li, are you awake?" Wan Jie looked at his watch, at 12:05 a.m., when Malawi was the second eastern district, it should be 6:05 a.m. in China now.

"Didn't sleep. The day before yesterday, President Yang took a vacation, and he had to make up for it all today. The man's voice sounded tired, "I want to go to President Zhou after a while, the intensity of the work here at the headquarters is really scary, and I can't stand it." ”

Wan Jie didn't answer the question, and asked straight to the point: "Lao Li, I have a situation here, Captain Xu left the hotel twenty minutes ago, and he hasn't come back yet, and he hasn't replied to my message." My level is not enough, I can't check the positioning of Captain Xu's communicator, you can do me a favor and check the positioning. ”

"The operation in Malawi is in the hands of the 19th Bureau and the Change Control Center, which is inconvenient for me." Lao Li didn't agree immediately, "In this way, if you submit the application directly with the code, you will definitely be able to pass it, after all, Xu Le's mental condition ......."

Wan Jie interrupted him: "No, I can't be sure why Team Xu left the hotel right now, what if it's a private matter?" It's not good for me to apply straight up. In case of embarrassment to Captain Xu, even if Captain Xu doesn't know, others will know, and it will inevitably spread out, and it will be difficult for me to be a person at that time, and the impression of me above will not be good. Lao Li, you can help me once, please! ”

Lao Li understood at this time, who said why Xu Le left the hotel alone? Maybe it's going to some special place to vent negative emotions in some special way? Of course, this kind of "private matter" cannot be investigated with public weapons.

"Okay, you wait a minute, I'll check it out right away."

After a while, Lao Li sent back a message: "Xiao Wan, something happened!" The positioning of the communicator is in the Golden Peacock Hotel! I'll report it right away, you hurry up and get Xu Le back!" ”

………………

From afar, Xu Le smelled the peculiar stench of mutants.

This kind of breath that can't be washed away, Xu Le doesn't have a nose as sensitive as a dog, but he is extremely sensitive to this smell, and he can be sure that his trip is not in vain if he is a block away.

Why are there other variants hiding in the capital of Malawi?

Why would someone choose to find Xu Le instead of calling the police after discovering the mutant? How can you find him Xu Le?

Xu Le had thought about these questions, and he could also sense that there was a conspiracy in them, but Xu Le didn't care.

As long as you know where the mutants are, you must kill them all, this is what Xu Le cares about.

Hatred can make people paranoid, and people like Xu Le, who use hatred as the driving force for their lives, will not change it even if they recognize their own paranoia.

If this is really a trap, it means that there must be bait, Xu Le thought to himself, as long as there is a bait.

It was precisely because he realized that this was likely a trap that Xu Le deliberately did not bring a communication device. First, Xu Le didn't want anyone to disturb him, and second, because he might fall into a trap, Xu Le couldn't carry anything that could prove his identity.

Approaching the dilapidated house, Xu Le took a deep breath of the nearby air filled with the smell of decay and blood, the smell was strange, but Xu Le smiled contentedly. I didn't expect to find desserts after the main meal.

After entering the door, Xu Le saw the old people and children huddled together in the house for warmth at first glance, all of them were thin and dry, and their eyes were glowing with a layer of desperate and numb gray. Strangely, they all had bulging bellies and looked like they had just eaten a full meal.

Xu Le had no interest in looking at them any longer, and walked straight in the direction where the smell of blood came from, where the sound of chewing made Xu Le excited.

Stepping into the front hall and entering the courtyard, the scene inside made Xu Le stunned.

There were corpses all over the ground, blood was flowing like a river, and a black girl stood in the center of a broken corpse, the sharp short knife in her hand hanging down to her feet, and the blood slid from the blade to the ground.

Tick, tick.

A tape recorder next to it was still playing the sound of chewing flesh, and the two voices blended together to create an eerie and terrifying atmosphere.

"I'm sorry." The inexplicable black girl apologized to Xu Le in broken Mandarin, and then suddenly knelt on her knees, raised the short knife in her hand, turned the knife edge, and stabbed herself in the left chest.

Xu Le didn't have time to stop her, because the mutant hiding on the roof launched a surprise attack on Xu Le.

The sound can be camouflaged, but the smell cannot, since Xu Le smelled the stench of mutants, it means that there are indeed mutants here.

So this inexplicable scene in front of him did not make Xu Le relax his vigilance, and after being attacked by a sneak attack, Xu Le retreated sharply, opened the chain on his forehead, and calmly responded to the battle.

Behind him, the sound of sharp weapons entering flesh sounded one after another, and the old, weak, sick and disabled in the front hall of the house fell under the butcher's knife one after another.

In the face of the siege, Xu Le had no time to care about the situation behind him, and when Xu Le finally besieged his three mutants and the mutants slaughtered in the front hall, there was no second living person in the dilapidated house.

"Hush." Xu Le threw down the knife in his hand and looked up at the roof, through the large hole made by the mutant during the raid, he could see a mini drone hanging in the air.
