Chapter 408, Silent Paris
At 2 o'clock in the morning on September 13, Xiao Yan and Ruilian walked along the passage to Paris. The reason why he was able to confirm that he had reached Paris in this unmarked passage was mainly because Hannibal found the squirrel that had burrowed into the depths of the carving, and a little further on, the tiger carving that Xiao Yan had just left his room and saw when he entered this passage.
"Right here, Paris is all around us, or head, or wherever it is, in short, it's around here."
Xiao Yan whispered, he turned his head to look at everyone, and said: "It's still the old rule, I take it out one by one, the problem is, I don't know what the situation will be when I go out, at least the place where I entered this space is on a street in Paris." ”
"I'll come first," Ennuen said, "and a relatively unfamiliar environment requires a high enough charisma, and in this group, both me and yours are not low, and we should be able to cope with it for a while." ”
Xiao Yan nodded, didn't say anything, and reached out to touch Ennuen's shoulder. Then, a large number of color blocks appeared around them. In an instant, the two men left the long passage.
The two people who reappeared in reality Shijie were lucky, and a small shift in their position in the passage allowed them to pick up not on that bustling street, but in a secluded alley. The two foraging night cats were alarmed by the large number of floating color blocks they had created, let out a high-pitched call, and then ran into the darkness along the lid of the overturned garbage can.
It's a deep alley that looks like a garbage dump at the back door of a restaurant, as evidenced by the occasional smell of food scraps and the sudden appearance and vanity of rats.
Ennuen looked left and right. Whispered, "You continue." I'm waiting for you here. ”
Xiao Yan nodded. Immediately access the passage, where Luisa waits for a second pick-up. Although he still seemed to be a little reluctant to give up on Hannibal, the previous obsession had faded from Luisa's face a lot, and it was obvious that the terrible attack on the demon just now had sobered Luisa a little. A level 9 high-level creature is also too high-end for Luisa, and if she wants to treat such a creature as a pet rather than a friend, the current level of Luisa is far from enough.
Don't know weishenme. This time, Xiao Yan and Luisa appeared not in the depths of the alley, but at the mouth of the alley. The color block around them had just disappeared for less than 3 seconds, and the headlights of a small car had already swept over them. It didn't look normal for a man and a woman to appear in the middle of the night, but looking at the petite woman's uncovered appearance, and then vaguely seeing Louisa's proud figure under her tattered clothes, there was a meaningful whistle from the cab of the car that drove in front of Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan turned his head to watch Ennuen stride out of the alleyway, and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?" ”
Ennuen shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know, it may have something to do with the fact that there is no constraint on the dispersion radius of the pick-up." ”
Xiao Yan didn't have a deep understanding of the dispersion radius of the butt. It vaguely felt like a cone, though it was a place in the passage. But after taking it out, it is mostly in a small circular area.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yan asked in a low voice, "Are you ready?" ”
Luisa turned her head to look at the street and said, "I need a piece of clothing." ”
Xiao Yan looked at Ennuen, the Italian trialist nodded, and said, "You go for the next transfer, and I'll take care of her affairs." ”
Xiao Yan nodded again, and in the next second, he was already trapped in the floating color block.
"There seems to be a dispersion radius in the real shijie that cannot be gathered in the same place."
Xiao Yan looked at the remaining two people and said, "Who's next?" ”
"I'll come."
Ruilian removed the communicator on her shoulder and said, "Basel has already learned the general situation, and there are some problems in Paris in Shijie, and I need to find out the specific reason as soon as possible." ”
Xiao Yan nodded, pulled Ruilian's arm, and the next second, they appeared on a wider street. Fortunately, by this time the entire street was empty, so their pick-up had no additional impact. A few seconds later, a small car spun out from the other side of the alley and drove head-on towards Xiao Yan and them again. After passing by the lights, Xiao Yan heard the familiar whistle again, and the driver was confused.
Turning his head to look at Ruilian, just like Luisa, although Ruilian's clothes are not so glamorous, they can also be regarded as full of holes. The demon's pierced and torn dress looked an extra violent beauty, and the short-haired female trialist had a desolate and effeminate feeling in the dim streetlight.
"You seem to have to solve your own clothes problem too."
Xiao Yan said this, looked left and right, let go of Ruilian's hand, and disappeared again.
"The radius of the outside pick-up dispersion seems to be expanding."
Xiao Yan looked at Quist and said, "It's very likely that we will be separated from them as soon as we get out, which is a situation I didn't expect at all. ”
Quister carefully checked his equipment and made sure that he was still in a state of complete equipment after going out, and then replied: "Don't worry too much about these situations, just do our own thing." ”
Xiao Yan smiled slightly, reached out and grabbed Quist's shoulder, and took it out.
This time, Xiao Yan and Quister appeared in the underground parking lot of an office building, where there were few cars and the red emergency lights in the distance were flashing and shining.
Looking at this scene, Quister frowned slightly and asked, "What time should it be?" ”
"A little more than 2 o'clock, the details are not very clear."
"No, at this time, most of the commercial buildings in Paris have begun to prepare for operation, and the financial futures market in Asia has already opened, and new data will appear one after another. Now there will not be so quiet in business buildings, the average number of vehicles will not be so small, and there are no security guards. ”
Xiao Yan frowned and asked, "What do you mean?" ”
"We haven't found much yet, and we have to get to the root of these problems as soon as possible."
Quist said as he quickly walked to the fire escape. The fire escapes of these commercial buildings in Paris are open 24 hours a day, with or without people. Relative to the exit of the parking lot, which may be suspicious, it is also a reasonable choice to go from the fire escape to the 1st floor and then see what is wrong.
The only dim red emergency lights flickering silently in the fire escape of this business building have no other lights or cameras, and everything seems to be peaceful. This kind of calm did not make Xiao Yan feel relaxed, so much so that he always felt that there seemed to be eyes around him quietly watching them in the dark.
The first floor of this business building presents a "gong" shape, and the fire escape is in the corridor in the center of the i-shape, and on both sides of the fire escape, there are several elevator shafts. When Quist pushed open the fire escape door and walked out, the elevators were all closed, and there were not even emergency elevator lights. Not only the elevator, but the entire first floor, along with the lobby and passageway, was in darkness. Here, there are not even red emergency lights, and only the street lamps outside the gate can be vaguely seen illuminating the surrounding space.
"All the cameras are out of operation," Quister turned his head to look at it, and came to this conclusion, he looked at Xiao Yan and asked, "Make a decision, do you want to see what happens to those security guards now, or do you leave this office building first and find Ennuen and them?" ”
Xiao Yan frowned, and suddenly realized that he seemed to have forgotten something, and he whispered: "You first find a way to get out of here, I need to bring out Hannibal, I forgot it in that passage." ”
Quister also remembers Hannibal's strength vividly, and dealing with a saint like Charlotte, a level 9 existence, even if it is only 30 seconds, can make a big difference. Therefore, Quister agreed with Xiao Yan's statement, looked around, and whispered, "Keep in touch, I'll go and see those security guards first, maybe I can find something from them." ”
Xiao Yan nodded, retreated to the fire escape, and immediately connected to the branch of the Shijie Tree.
To his surprise, Hannibal was not nearby. Hannibal's sudden disappearance made Xiao Yan even wonder if his access had also been shifted. But the tiger statue was at Xiao Yan's feet, including the communicator that Ruilian threw on the ground. But other than that, the whole passage is extremely quiet, and there is no noise.
Xiao Yan turned his head to look around and shouted, "Hannibal! ”
There was no response, and the three-headed dog, who had been very sensitive to Xiao Yan's cries in the past, did not respond this time, and the passage was as quiet as ever, as if there had never been a Hannibal.
"Good boy, Hannibal, where are you? Hurry up! ”
Xiao Yan shouted again, but there was still no answer around. This situation made Xiao Yan vaguely feel that something was wrong, he lowered his head and rechecked the carving at his feet, just like when he walked before, the tiger still existed, and nothing had changed.
At this time, there is no point in following the passage to find Hannibal, the passage is too long, and I don't know when I find Hannibal. But the three-headed dog won't do those meaningless things, and there must be a reason for it to leave from the passage.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yan didn't stay any longer, called out the light screen again, and clicked out.
When the surrounding spots of light quietly disappeared, Xiao Yan returned to the alley, and two wild cats left along the garbage can with impatient calls, and the rat that emerged and quickly disappeared.
I don't know when, the fog began to rise around Xiao Yan. (To be continued......)
