Chapter 227: Seeking Commonality

"To put it mildly, you guys are really ghostly......" Seeing the appearance of a man and a woman in the surveillance camera, the young man in a loose white coat sighed softly.

Qi Jing's face gradually enlarged on the screen. He seemed to turn his head and say something to Lan Zhi, and suddenly met him through the camera.

"Long time no see, d21751103." The young man picked up a cup of dark liquid with a strong medicinal taste, blew it slowly, and continued, "You have grown a lot taller after so many years, but the contents of your eyes have not changed much. โ€

In the huge office, he was the only one half-lying in a chair. Half of the large and small screens embedded in the walls had stopped working, but the rest of the screens were still fluorescent enough to illuminate the place completely. The young man watched Qi Jing smash his fist at the camera with a cold face, and soon only a black and white snowflake was left in the small screen.

"Didn't I tell you the story of the 'wolf child' a long time ago?" Knowing that the other party couldn't hear it, he was still talking to himself, "People are like this, what kind of environment they are born in, what kind of habits will they be contaminated." Once you have lived in a 'quarantine zone' away from the normal human world for as long as you can remember, it will be difficult for you to learn normal social behavior by imitating others for the rest of your life...... Just like you are now. โ€

The bitter taste spread rapidly in his mouth, and the young man wrinkled his brows and wiped his mouth, and said sarcastically: "Look, even if you succeed in getting out of here, aren't you still doing murderous deeds?" At most, it's just a new owner. โ€

The apparatus on the other side of the room suddenly emitted a high-pitched alarm. With an impatient expression, the young man raised his palm and slapped the button hard.

The numbers, which used to occupy three screens, collectively turned red in an instant, and then disappeared. The young man knew that this was a sign that the monkeys entrenched in the side door had all lost contact with the control room. He wasn't surprised by that. No matter how self-deceptive they are, those artificially modified monkeys are far lower than humans in terms of strength and probability, in addition to their strong reproductive ability, low cultivation cost, and simple manipulation methods. Once you encounter a really troublesome opponent and can't use your own brain to come up with a useful strategy, to put it bluntly, it's just a cheap substitute for talent. It may be okay to deal with ordinary people, even if it is thrown on the battlefield to attack the six fingers, it is estimated that it will be completely wiped out by some trendy weapon, and by the way, it comes with several servings of monkey broth.

No, that's still too far from what he expected.

An irrepressible feeling of anxiety scratched at his heart. The young man leaned back in his chair in a gloomy manner, his dark eyes reflected in a dense patch of numbers and formulas.

If it was in an era when commodity exchange was more convenient, maybe he could get more materials with excellent basic quality, instead of first thanklessly taking on the job of a kindergarten principal, and then starting to develop in the direction of animal trainers.

"Don't worry, we'll try to solve the few that come from the main entrance." The few remaining subordinates were contacting him through the communication channel, "but the side door...... Sorry, we can't split the staff. I thought the setup was enough to keep these kids out. โ€

"The three over there aren't familiar faces of ours." As he spoke, the young man saw the perspective of a monitor in the side door passage swaying, and quickly disconnected from here, "In addition, you just grab people, and try not to hurt them too much." โ€

"It also depends on how they plan to act." The subordinate replied, "The children of the past may have grown up and have already mastered new skills that we can't understand, and besides, you may not be able to recognize each and every one of them." โ€

"No, of course I can." The young man struggled to his feet, inadvertently revealing his scarred arm, "Six years...... I never dared to forget what each of them looked like. โ€

"We've been discovered by the people inside." Yuan Sui said as he pulled a small camera out of the crack in the wall with a cord.

"Didn't you deal with it in a timely manner?" Tong Bi'an rubbed the nosebleed on his face, and asked angrily.

After half an hour of traveling through the cave, the underground river finally turned in front of an alloy gate and flowed into the unknown darkness. Detached from the semi-natural environment where a monkey could pop up at any moment, the industrial concrete walls look a little intimate. may have learned a lesson from what happened just now, and the Tong brothers were on guard one after the other, which made Yuan Sui rare and idle.

"No, you look up to me, I'm really not a very vigilant person." She scratched her head embarrassedly, "I guess there were countless of them in front of me before I noticed this one." โ€

"Huh? So what to do? Tong Bi'an was instantly anxious.

"What's this, if you find it, you will find it. Sooner or later, they will meet head-on, it's just a matter of where they meet. Yuan Sui's face was full of indifference, "Hey friend, you have to make it clear, this time we took the initiative to run to someone else's house, and you still expect to complete a beautiful sneak attack?" People who have the leisure to build such a place don't even have the brains to do so. โ€

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ I always felt that you were despising me by saying this. Tong Bi'an whispered.

"Why, it's you who think too much." Yuan Sui held back a smile and tried to change the subject, "I'm sorry, I really can't control my curiosity...... So what the hell did you two just do? I was stunned when I was so energetic. โ€

"Nothing." Tong Siyuan, who was walking in front, suddenly opened his mouth and answered, "The two of us have not dealt with each other since we were children, and we often play around at home, that's all." โ€

"Oh, see, if you don't want to answer, then I don't ask. Actually, I don't have much interest in other people's family affairs. Yuan Sui was not angry, "But, don't fool me casually." I've managed to build trust in you two a little. โ€

"Then I'm so grateful that you think so highly of me." Tong Bi'an gave her a blank look.

"No, no, you misunderstood, the main thing is to look up to your brother." Yuan Sui answered truthfully.

"You-"

Tong Bi'an was about to blow his beard and stare at him to show his anger, when he heard Tong Siyuan speak calmly: "The two of us are half-brothers. โ€

"I guess so." Yuan Sui didn't seem surprised at all, "Not only do you two look alike at all, but your personalities are also very different." โ€

"Really?" Tong Siyuan turned around and carefully looked at his younger brother's appearance, "It seems that the two of us are more like our respective mothers." โ€

"This kind of thing is not uncommon, why do you two keep it secret."

"I didn't hide anything...... Many of the people who followed me early should know it. Tong Siyuan turned around, "But I'm still not used to talking about this kind of private matter." โ€

After a slight pause, Yuan Sui laughed very softly, nodded and said, "It's understandable." I can understand it in every sense. โ€

"Miss Yuan means ......?"

didn't wait for Tong Siyuan to finish speaking, Tong Bi'an behind him picked up his mouth very happily: "Because our common father is a superb scumbag, when my mother married him, I didn't know that he already had a wife and children in another place." So you're satisfied, right? โ€

"Wow." Yuan Sui screamed dryly, "If you express it like this, it will give me more room for imagination." โ€

"The difference between the two of us is exactly ten years." Tong Siyuan turned his back to her and added, "When I met for the first time under my father's arrangement, I was already an adult, because my mother died early, and I didn't have any savings to study again, so I helped people do some driving and delivery work between cities early under the introduction of a few distant relatives." So when I touched the car today, I actually felt a little nostalgic. โ€

"yes, I remember that day, too. Everything you can smash in the house, plates, vases, glasses...... Even the windows were smashed by my mother. She has always been in a bad temper. Tong Bi'an's voice was a little muffled, "As soon as she saw you, she rushed up and slapped her, and her father, who was still talking to me just now, 'You should get along well in the future', was stunned." โ€

Yuan Sui was a little stunned when he heard this. It was much more exciting than she had imagined.

Then, without packing anything, she rushed out of the house and ran. I never saw her again. Tong Bi'an continued to talk straightforwardly, "In those years, the city we lived in was actually chaotic. Dad guessed that Mom should have gone back alone to find her grandmother, who lived far away, and I don't know if she was found alive. He smiled wryly, "No one else in the family knew where Grandma lived, so we all thought she was dead...... You say, there is such a thing in my heart, can I get along with this foreign 'brother'? โ€

"I don't blame you." Yuan Sui sighed.

"Now that I think about it, my brother didn't rely on the advantage of others to kill me by the way when I was messing around at home, and he is already a good character. Since I'm here today, I'll say thank you to the one in front of me by the way. Tong Bi'an hugged his fist into the air, but he pulled the wound on his body again, and sighed in pain.

"You're welcome. It turns out that your expectations for me are so low. Tong Siyuan replied.

"I'm sorry to ......" Yuan Sui decided to stand up in time to admit his mistake, "That, I really didn't expect the family relationship between the two of you to be so complicated...... Sorry for reminiscing you guys of bad things. โ€

"It's nothing, it's all gone." Tong Siyuan still seemed to have reservations about this, and also changed the subject, "To put it a little offensively, I feel that Miss Yuan is not like a woman who grew up in a happy family environment. โ€

"You guessed it right. I also thought that a few of us might have a common language in this regard, so I mentioned it in passing. Yuan Sui grabbed his hair again, which was not yet dry, "I didn't expect that my little thing doesn't seem to be comparable to the two of you." โ€

"There is nothing to compare with this kind of thing, and no one will be happy if they win." Tong Siyuan's footsteps did not stop.

The three of them were silent for a while, each pondering their own thoughts.

It wasn't until the aisle in front of me gradually became wider, and even a few branches occasionally appeared that interfered with judgment, that the conversation resumed.

"Let's just keep following the main road." Yuan Sui recalls the very general map, "As long as there are people along the road who come to stop us, it means that we are on the right track...... How is Sister Gu's side? โ€

The signal in the cave was not good, and there were too many interference currents nearby, so she was so noisy that she simply took off the headset temporarily.

"You contacted us a few minutes ago." Tong Siyuan replied, "They have been smoother than us all the way, and they should be very close to the center of this place by now." โ€

If it was Ling Shucheng, it is estimated that this "few minutes" would be more precise, right? Yuan Sui was a little distracted, but he still reacted quickly: "You'd better stop them first." The most important part of our plan this time is to keep our two sides as synchronized as possible, and it is best to be able to converge in the central area before a large-scale encounter with the enemy, otherwise we will disperse the already limited combat power. โ€

"What you've learned before is too theoretical." Tong Bi'an also reluctantly retracted his emotions, "When something really happens, how can you have the opportunity to think about various predetermined plans in advance?" Aren't they all opportunistic? โ€

"Well, my boss, have you seen it? It's the one I was with last time. Basically everyone who has come into contact with him says that he is very capable of work, and there are almost no tasks that cannot be completed. Yuan Sui decided to be patient and persuasive, "I have been by his side for more than half a year, and the biggest gain is ...... One of them is probably to learn to draw up an outline plan before doing things. If the actual progress of things deviates too much from the plan, it can only mean two points," she stretched out two fingers, "First, the plan itself is too one-sided, and it is not combined with reality at all; Two, this task is already on the verge of failure. โ€

I knew that I wouldn't have set my identity as an "intern", which made this group of people seem to think that she is a scholar who can only talk on paper. Yuan Sui was actually a little anxious in his heart. Judging from her previous experience, once the two teams separated broke off contact, it was basically a prelude to something big.

"I'm contacting them, don't be too anxious, Lao Qi and the two of them won't be so easy to deal with." Tong Siyuan's concern for the safety of his subordinates always seems to be limited, "Let's wait for a reply while walking." โ€

"Okay." Yuan Sui had just taken a few steps when he suddenly stopped in the middle of the road again.

"What's the fuss, didn't you say that we should hurry up?" Tong Bi'an leaned sideways and squeezed in front of her.

"Did you two hear anything?" Yuan Sui looked around, "Squeaky and squeaky, it's quite regular." โ€

"There's so much noise about the machinery running here, which one do you mean?" Tong Bi'an didn't care.

At about the same time as he spoke, Yuan Sui vaguely saw a young man in a wheelchair, emerging from a corner in the distance.
