Chapter 29: Follow-up
In an inconspicuous alley in the southeast corner of the construction site, a black van is parked quietly.
Two guys in tight-fitting combat suits and fully enclosed helmets came to the back of the truck, opened the trunk door, and quickly got inside.
"Drive, retreat to the fourth safe house. The tall and burly man in black commanded.
The truck started slowly and drove forward, and a man's voice came from the cab, "Mission failed?"
The two took off their helmets, and the tall and burly man in black was a bald man in his thirties, with dark skin and a fleshy face, with a fierce temperament.
The slender short man in black turned out to be a woman, a woman in her twenties, delicate features, neat short hair, and wheat-colored skin that made her look heroic and lean.
Dahan said in a deep voice: "The mission has failed. ”
The enclosed cargo compartment houses many electronic instruments and equipment, like a mobile electronic war room.
There is also an iron cage welded with thick steel bars in the middle of the arm.
The cage originally intended for the mutants was empty, indicating the failure of their mission.
The driver in the cab asked again, "Didn't find the variant?"
The woman said angrily: "I found it, but I was killed, Made, I was angry, and I almost succeeded." ”
The driver paused visibly, "What's the situation?"
The big man said angrily: "I don't know if the person from that force got in after receiving the news, and found the mutant before us, and that person killed the mutant." ”
"Not a ghost slayer?"
The woman glanced at the cab like an idiot, "Can the ghost slayer be sneaky? And when have you ever seen a ghost slayer act alone? We can still come out when we meet a ghost slayer? You're an idiot, aren't you?" ”
Seeing that the woman was indignant, Dahan smiled and said, "Okay, don't be angry. ”
The woman glanced at him and said hatefully: "Can you not be angry? This is an A-level mission, a bounty of 12 million, we have prepared so much, and the shielding device and virus bombs purchased at a high price are all bought in vain." Don't let me find out the troublemaker, I will definitely make him worse than dead after I find out. ”
The driver also felt a pity, and sighed: "It's a pity that I finally found a living mutant before 'slaying ghosts'." This kind of opportunity is getting less and less, and after the spiritual eye is upgraded, the action of slaying ghosts will only get faster and faster.
The people who slay the ghosts are also really, as soon as they find the mutants, they will shoot them, and the living mutants are worth at least 10 million in the international black market, and they don't feel sorry. ”
The woman felt more and more that the driver was an idiot, "People are violent organs of the government, and if they catch a living body, they will not sell it on the black market."
And the government research institute doesn't know how many deviants are being studied, and there is no shortage of living deviants, of course, they will be shot as soon as they see it, don't talk, listening to you, I think my IQ has been dropping. ”
The driver stopped talking, apparently feeling that his words were a little substandard.
The big man smiled and watched the two bickering, but he didn't speak.
Seeing his heartless appearance, the woman glared and said, "You are laughing at a fart, you can still laugh when you fail the mission, is it good to have a snack." No, I've decided, even if I don't want to complete the bounty mission, I'll catch a live mutant and sell it on the black market, otherwise I'll lose a lot this time. ”
The bald man showed a soft smile that didn't match his fierce appearance, "You have the final say." ”
The black van drove all the way to the city center and disappeared into the rolling traffic.
Shang Tao saw those heavily armed special police officers again, these special police officers were well-equipped and of extremely high quality, and he guessed that they might be the ones who specialized in dealing with this kind of monster incident.
He was summoned to the police station, and it was still the same old routine, and he basically answered that he didn't see it, didn't know, didn't understand, and didn't know anything about it.
Anyway, he told the police that he was going to work at the construction site, and Liu Yong was his friend and worker, so he went to the construction site to look for Liu Yong, and then found Liu Yong covered in blood on the third floor of a certain building, so he hurriedly took Liu Yong out, and didn't know anything else.
It stands to reason that those two terrorist-like guys are dangerous, and he should have taken the initiative to tell the police.
However, after thinking about it, he felt that there were so many bullet marks at the scene, and there were many cameras around the construction site, and it was impossible for the police not to investigate the existence of the two people.
So he didn't feel the need to take the initiative to confess, so as to avoid getting involved in more trouble.
The soul space was his most important secret, and he didn't want to be sent to a research institute for people to study.
The novels and anime he once read had a deep impact on him, causing him to be quite jealous of the violent organs of the government.
Fortunately, his identity was simple, and the police confirmed what he said after a little investigation, and released him.
Liu Yong was sent to the hospital, and his life was saved, but because of excessive blood loss, it is estimated that he will have to recuperate for a long time.
After Shang Tao came out of the police station, he arrived at the hospital, and Liu Changdong and several fellow villagers were also there.
"Uncle Liu, it's good that Yongzi is fine......" Shang Tao didn't know what to say for a while.
Liu Changdong seems to be ten years old, this incident hit him very hard, Liu Yong and they were all brought out by him from his hometown, but now they are two dead and one injured, and he doesn't know how to explain to his old family.
And if something so big happens, the construction site must have stopped, and the start time is far away, which means that the construction team has lost their work.
The contractor advances the money in advance for the contracted project, and the deposit, staff accommodation, workers' wages and loans, material payments, etc., must be paid out first.
Now that the project has stopped, I don't know when I will get the money back.
Liu Yong's medical expenses and the funeral expenses of the two deceased must also be paid by him, and he is not much of a boss, and his family was hollowed out in an instant.
The heavy pressure made Liu Changdong bend his waist and turn white.
Shang Tao couldn't bear it, but he couldn't help much, and he didn't know how to say some comforting words.
Several people sat in the corridor outside the ward, silent, and the atmosphere was frighteningly dull.
After staying in the hospital for a while, Shang Tao went home, he was always an outsider, and he had only known them for two days, everything he could had already done, and it was useless to stay any longer.
Liu Changdong and they are all very grateful to Shang Tao, if Shang Tao hadn't taken Liu Yong out of the construction site, it is estimated that the construction team of Liujia Village would have to die again.
When he returned home, it was already night, Shang Tao was lying on the bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, and some people would always appear in front of him.
Zhang Xiaolong, a physical education teacher, a woman on the subway, a man in a hot pot restaurant, Liu Yong, and two mutilated corpses.
The world is getting more and more chaotic.
He took out his mobile phone, hesitated for a moment, and made a call, but the phone rang many times and no one answered.
He began to send messages, "It's been chaotic lately, you must pay attention to safety, don't rush up if you find anything strange, you must remember to call the police first, and then call me, remember to remember." ”
