Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Black Car
Xia Jie listened to Dr. Rice's introduction casually, reached out and picked up a test tube, put it between his hands and looked at it, the glass of the test tube was clear and transparent, but the reagent was dark purple, and the blood in it was in a jelly state under the cold air.
He shook his hand, and a colorful force surged in his palm, enveloping this mutant gene in his hand, and silently smelting the 'essence blood' in it in the way of "Incarnation Outside the Body".
After a while, Xia Jie silently withdrew his mana again, and when he opened his palm, he saw that the blood in it had been smelted a lot and became more condensed.
"This mutant should also belong to alien beasts and can be refined?"
Although the aura cannot be absorbed, this kind of exercise is effective, which makes Xia Jie feel that the method of the five elements is not comprehensive enough, and it has certain limitations.
Subsequently, he put the genetic reagent back again, without the intention of refining it.
The materials needed to train this into an out-of-body incarnation are simply not enough, and what's the use of urging the essence blood to become a foreigner and control some inferior abilities?
Xia Jie raised his hand to interrupt Rice's talking: "Okay, there is one last thing, I need money, cash." ”
"Huh?"
Dr. Rice paused, and looked at Xia Jie in surprise, not very understanding why the other party was indifferent to this priceless mutant gene, but instead needed the miraculous brain circuit of cash.
But the next moment, a metal arm reached out from behind him and grabbed his throat, followed by a low voice mixed with excitement.
"Sir, I can take care of the rest for you."
Pierce leaned out from behind Dr. Rice, his expression grim.
"It seems that you are also a smart person."
Xia Jie laughed, he felt that something was wrong when he saw Pierce's expression before, and now he finally knew the other party's intentions.
Les felt the suffocating confinement on his neck, but he panicked, and shouted hoarsely: "No, I'm the person in charge here, these are mine, I can give you everything you want." ”
"Doctor, do you think Alcali won't turn around without you?"
Pierce sneered, and said to Xia Jie: "Sir, the only one who can help you here is me, I can easily erase all traces of your coming here, and Dr. Rice will die at the hands of X-24, including everything that happened in Phoenix, will be buried underground with his death!" ”
"Nobody remembers Logan, nobody knows Laura, it's just Rice scam Congress and steal research funds. And he also colluded with Canada, selling mutant clones, as well as Erdman alloys! ”
Pierce's words were calm and logical, but they were full of blood.
For the study of genes, he is hundreds of streets behind Dr. Rice, but in terms of framing others, indiscriminately detaining criminals, and reversing black and white, he is at ease.
"That idea, that sounds great."
Xia Jie nodded calmly, but he couldn't help but applaud him in his heart.
And after receiving his affirmation, Pierce smiled wildly, and the five metal fingers instantly closed, strangling Les at the last step of hope.
……
Xia Jie didn't pay any attention to Pierce's later arrangement, because he had already been sent by Pierce to a square ten kilometers away from Al Kali, which was the location he had requested.
He carried a large black suitcase, found a random pay phone, and called Logan, fortunately, the American number was short and easy to remember, only ten digits, and he remembered it after calling once.
"Hello?"
The phone answered, and Caliban's voice came from the other end.
"Caliban? How did you answer the phone? ”
Xia Jie called Logan's mobile phone, could it be ......
On the other end of the phone, Caliban also complained tiredly: "What the hell are you two doing?" How did you go out and bring a girl back for one night? still looks so similar to Logan, when Charles sees her, it's like seeing his own granddaughter. so that I will have to wash one more man's clothes. ”
"Ahem," Xia Jie was impressed by Caliban's nagging, and without waiting for him to continue, he hurriedly asked, "What about Logan?" ”
"He's with the little girl at the doctor's, do you want me to call him?"
Xia Jie thought about it, it should be him and Laura enjoying family fun in front of Charles, isn't this exactly what he expected? The sooner the relationship between these three people gets better, the task will be completed as soon as possible.
"Forget it, don't look for him."
Withholding the phone, he was originally going to find Logan to pick him up in order to avoid revealing his location, but now, compared to the importance of the task, there is no need for that.
Xia Jie turned around and walked to the main street, hailed a taxi, and went straight to the abandoned smelter on the border, given that Pierce had come from this road before, he also remembered the general direction, so as not to get lost.
Along the way, he had his hands on a suitcase containing $170,000 and the Edman alloy that had been turned into a cuboid.
This is Pierce's expenses for their activities in the field, as for more money, but it is all in the bank card, the risk of exposure is too great, Xia Jie did not touch it, and the 170,000 US dollars, plus the 40,000 that Rogen himself saved, is enough for them to train Laura to adulthood.
In the rest of the suitcase, there are also vertical rows of small blue medicine bottles, which contain the functional enhancers developed by Dr. Rice, which can increase the strength of the ability to a certain extent.
This thing can't bring the dead back to life, and it can't change the aging bodies of Logan and Charles, it can only be used as a hole card, maybe one day, they will be able to use it.
Along the way, Xia Jie was very happy, because he could almost conclude that most of the mission had been completed, and perhaps only a little inducement was needed to allow Logan and Laura to take them away from the world to find their own peace.
But in the afterglow of Xia Jie's eyes, he saw a black Mexican driving a car, carefully glancing in the rearview mirror from time to time.
He thought he hadn't been discovered by Xia Jie, but his black and white eyes exposed his intentions.
Xia Jie was a little surprised at first, but in a blink of an eye, he thought of a possibility: he was afraid that he was on a black car!
As everyone knows, in the eyes of this black driver, he is really a fat sheep, and the Chinese are rich, which is almost the world's first choice for robbery.
And in this foreign country, a strange Chinese man is carrying a big box to an abandoned steel factory, which is said to have been built by a multinational company in China, and everything is full of the smell of money.
As for Xia Jiekong's powerful figure, he did not dispel the greed of the black driver, because he had a Colt pistol on his waist all the year round.
"Kill him with one shot, find another place to bury him, and no one will know."
The black driver smiled proudly, and became more and more interested in the contents of Xia Jie's box.
He casually looked at the rearview mirror, as well as the scenery on both sides, this place is already far away from the city, even if he has walked a small and half distance, if he walks again, if there is nothing valuable in the other party's box, then the gas money will be lost.
"Squeak~!!"
With a sudden braking, the inside of the car shook violently, the wheels locked, and a cloud of sand was raised.
The black driver apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, there are stones on the road, there are stones ......"
And he was taking advantage of this shaking, lifting his clothes with one hand and wiping them on the waistband of his trousers, and the black fingers were just about to touch the handle of the gun that had been covered with heat.
However, an unbelievable scene happened, and the gun was actually fired by itself......
"Bang!!"
The shrill sound of gunfire echoed in the cramped car, and the black driver wailed, and between his legs, on the pale blue jeans, blood suddenly gushed out of the middle, and in an instant smeared all over his thighs.
"Whew!! Ahhhh ”
His howl was simply empathetic, creepy, he stretched out his hands to hold down the wound, but he was afraid of pain, so he had to rest on his lower abdomen, and the whole person was like a shrimp, curled up in the driver's seat.
However, this is far from over, only to hear another gunshot in the car: "Bang! ”
The thing that had already been broken was hit again, completely destroyed by the roots, and the pale yellow slurry burst into his crotch.
He only felt a tense feeling all over his body, and the sharp pain hit him like a landslide.
......The black driver twitched his head, collapsed, and slammed his head into the steering wheel, honking his horn continuously.
"You shall not live."
Xia Jie looked disdainful, reached out and lifted the person's body aside, picked up the phone he put on the dashboard, and got out of the car directly.
After a skilled dial, Logan's voice came from the other end: "Who are you looking for?" ”
"Logan, it's me."
"Summer? Are you done? ”
"Well, I wasn't going to trouble you, but the car broke down, how about picking me up?"
"No problem, where are you? Still in Al Kali? ”
"No, I'm on Highway 23 from Mexico City to the smelter right now."
Xia Jie looked up left and right, and there was no reference nearby, so he had to judge according to the time: "The location is about half an hour out of the city." ”
"Okay, right away." Logan hung up in a hurry.
Xia Jie was holding a large suitcase in his left hand, and after putting down the phone with his right hand, he turned around and kicked it.
The thick thigh made an afterimage, and slammed between the two doors of the taxi, causing it to step out of a deep depression, squeak, and move half a meter from the main road.
"Bang!"
He took another step forward and kicked out again, three or four times, and kicked the car sideways into the mud on the side.
"Click......"
The ground slowly cracked, swallowing the body in one gulp, and then slamming it shut again.
The driver in the car was just unconscious, and at this time, he was also directly crushed into a patty with the body.
Then, Xia Jie put the box on the ground and used it as a bench, sat on it and looked at the wilderness around him, and casually sent a small bug, which could not hinder his joy of completing the task in the slightest.
