Chapter 145: The Man Behind the Scenes

"Step on ...... Stomping ......"

With the sound of messy footsteps, a figure hurriedly slammed open the door, and suddenly broke into the dimly lit and cramped utility room, stumbling towards a corner.

Yuan Ling gritted her teeth, pressed her bleeding right hand, and kicked away the debris piled up on the ground with a pale face, revealing the secret door hidden on the ground.

That was the hidden air defense passage that Yuan Ling had already discovered in advance, and it was also the only way to escape under the current situation of being surrounded by layers.

“…… It should be around here, quick! Go over there and see ......."

There was a faint sound of the special police searching outside the room, Yuan Ling no longer rubbed, and then quietly moved the iron cover of the secret door in pain, quietly got into it like a ghost, and quickly ran along the empty underground passage.

"Tsk, I didn't expect it...... I've come to this point! If it weren't for that time......"

Yuan Ling remembered the human head shot in the underground human laboratory and the dirt that sprayed her body, and the disgusting feeling lingered, and she couldn't help but grit her teeth with hatred for the "culprit" who caused her to be so embarrassed.

"The surname Ye's ...... You wait for me! I'm going to ...... I'm sure I'll tear you to pieces!! “

Yuan Ling whispered viciously, her delicate face was also twisted in deep malice, and she no longer had that delicate and charming look.

However, now Yuan Ling obviously can't take care of these, according to her previous deployment, as long as she successfully reaches the other end of the passage, someone will come to pick her up, and once she is out of the control of Lou Yue and the others here, then the initiative will be in her hands again.

This air defense passage is not short, but it is not long, Yuan Ling soon saw a glimmer of light not far from the passage, and the exit was close at hand.

"Smack......

Yuan Ling carefully removed the iron bar at the exit and poked her head out from under the floor. Cautiously glancing around the exit, he dodged out of the air defense channel after making sure it was safe.

The hazy light shines through the shattered stained glass into the empty, bleak and dilapidated church at the end of the passage, and the thick ash here indicates that it has been abandoned for a long time.

Yuan Ling walked out of the corner, patted the dust on her body in disgust, raised her leg and kicked away the tables and chairs around her, and was about to turn around and walk towards the outside of the church, when suddenly, she stopped.

Yuan Ling turned around and looked over the desolate aisle in the center of the church. Straight to the bottom of the church.

I saw that under the huge broken cross at the bottom, a man's figure was looking up with his head up, looking fixedly at the stone statue of Jesus' body crucified on the cross.

"...... '轸'?" Yuan Ling narrowed her eyes and opened her mouth with some uncertainty.

The man finally looked away from the statue of Jesus and slowly turned around.

"You're finally here, I've been waiting for you for a long time." The man looked at Yuan Ling with a smile, and his gentle expression was like a spring breeze.

"I obviously asked my men to pick me up, why are you here?" Yuan Ling looked coldly at the gentleman in a suit and leather shoes not far away, but her eyes were full of vigilance.

"The people around you are already being targeted. I'm afraid it's not suitable to come, so ...... I came for them. The man looked at Yuan Ling, who was covered in blood, and there seemed to be a trace of pity in Hexi's smile. But look at you...... It's really hard for you. ”

"Hmph, did you come to laugh at me on purpose?!" Yuan Ling snorted dissatisfied. glanced at each other. "I don't need you to meddle in my affairs, besides, it's not your turn to meddle in my affairs!"

"Alas...... You're still the same, and your personality is too stubborn. The man sighed softly. Reaching out and pushing the rimless glasses on the bridge of his nose. "If you weren't always obsessed with doing everything yourself, you wouldn't have ended up in this kind of field, from the moment you were targeted by the Special Investigation Bureau. Your failure is irreparable. ”

"You...... What do you mean? Yuan Ling's voice trembled a little.

"You should be very clear about what it means to be a member of an organization once your identity is exposed." The man said lightly. "If it weren't for your own clever arrangement of the underground auction, I'm afraid your identity wouldn't have been recognized so quickly."

"Impossible! I wore a mask all the time at the auction, and I changed my voice the whole time, so I couldn't be recognized!! Yuan Ling scolded angrily. Besides, if I hadn't taken action, how could the organization have caught that 'expulsor' and obtained that precious experimental data?! ”

"But here's the thing – you're exposed." The man shook his head, a gentle smile gradually retracted, and a cold color passed through his pupils. "What's more, you made a mistake before and left blood on the scene of the operation, and now it's too late for you to hide it."

"Boom—"

Outside the window, the sky echoed with a low thunderclap, as if a storm was coming, and the two men were facing each other in the church.

"What are you going to do now?" Yuan Ling said quietly, subconsciously took two steps back, and distanced herself from the man.

"You should know the rules of the organization best." The man didn't seem to notice Yuan Ling's movements, and still spoke unhurriedly. "What would you do if you and I swapped places...... 'Kei'! ”

Before the words fell, the man's figure suddenly shook, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared in place.

"Not good!" Yuan Ling's pupils constricted suddenly, and she reflexively wanted to pull out the tear gas, but she inadvertently touched the injury on her hand, and her movements slowed down by half a beat; And in the next moment, she felt a sharp pain in her hands, and saw that her hands had been dislocated, and at the same time, her throat was firmly locked, and she couldn't move for a while.

And it was the man who was standing under the statue of Jesus in the distance.

"I'm sorry to be so rude to you, but that's what it means above." The man was still smiling, and this time there was no tenderness in his smile, but a deep indifference. "It's a pity that you have the skills of disguise and voice change, it's a pity......"

"'轸'...... Luo ...... Luo Jinyi! Ahem...... You put ...... Let go of me......" Yuan Ling struggled, staring at the man in front of her. "I know the whereabouts of that 'Blood Key Bracelet'! You...... If you let me go, I'll ......"

"I don't need you to tell me." The man interrupted Yuan Ling's words, and while his left hand was holding the other party's slender neck, he gently stretched out his right hand and covered Yuan Ling's head. I saw that above the middle finger of his right hand, a blood-red ruby ring was emitting a strange multicolored light.

"You...... You want......!! The moment she saw the ring, an extremely rare look of panic appeared on Yuan Ling's always arrogant and indifferent face.

"All your information, I'll 'recover'." The man looked at Yuan Ling and sneered.

"It's been a long time, thank you." ——

"Bang ——!"

The broken door of the church slammed open, and a black figure rushed into the abandoned church.

The thunder resounding outside the house echoed in the dim space, and the atmosphere around it was particularly eerie. At the base of the ruined church, a lone figure is kneeling under the central cross, tilting his head and staring silently at the stone statue of Jesus in front of him.

"You're here!" Lou Yue held the gun and approached the back of the woman under the cross step by step.

The figure remained motionless, seemingly ignoring Lou Yue's words.

Lou Yue frowned, and at this time, Sister Mu followed and pursued.

“…… Is that...... Yuan Ling?! Sister Mu entered the church and also found a woman kneeling alone in front of the cross not far away.

"Not good!" Lou Yue suddenly realized that something was wrong and immediately ran forward, and Sister Mu couldn't help but change her face when she saw this, and chased after her.

Yuan Ling turned her back to the two of them, still motionless, and the uneasiness in Lou Yue's heart became more and more intense as she approached Yuan Ling.

Don't be silenced...... Don't ......!!

Under the cross, Lou Yue finally stood still. He looked at Yuan Ling's unresponsive back, and suddenly had a brief hesitation.

Lou Yue took a deep breath and slowly walked in front of Yuan Ling step by step.

"Bang...... Smack...... Wow-"

Outside the window, the long-standing torrential rain finally began to pour, and in the miserable white lightning, he saw a pair of blank but dull eyes.

"......" Yuan Ling's red lips opened and closed slightly, as if she was muttering something, but she didn't make a sound, only to see her squatting on the ground, staring up at Jesus on the cross blankly, staring intently, completely ignoring Lou Yue and Sister Mu beside her.

She ...... Still alive? Sister Mu looked at Yuan Ling's appearance, and her surprise was beyond words. What tricks is she playing? ”

Lou Yue looked at Yuan Ling's sluggish expression, and a bad premonition suddenly rose like a weed in his heart, he slowly stretched out his hand, trembling and resolute to Yuan Ling's forehead.

“…… Wait a minute! Do you really want to ......" Sister Mu just wanted to stop it, but it was too late.

The moment Lou Yue's fingers touched Yuan Ling, his face suddenly became as pale as paper, and only half a second later, Lou Yue suddenly withdrew his hand as if he had been electrocuted.

"What...... What the!? How could it be...... How can it be!! Lou Yue took two steps back, seemed to be a little unsteady on her feet, and was supported by Sister Mu, who was quick-eyed and quick-witted.

“…… Damn it! We're still one step late!! Or is it 'devoured' to ......" Lou Yue stared at Yuan Ling, who was already like an empty shell, trembling all over.

She ...... Yuan Ling, who is she ......? Seeing Lou Yue so shocked, Sister Mu asked anxiously.

"She was 'emptied'...... All her memories...... It's all erased! Lou Yue clenched his fists, and a kind of anger burst out of his pupils...... and despair.

“…… We can't get any more information from her. ”——
