Chapter 303: The Killer Appears
After returning to the underground research institute with Lu Yuan, I searched all the way back to the location I remembered.
Soon after, a thin figure was found in the darkness, leaning against the wall, motionless.
The figure was dressed in a dark red indoctrination field uniform, lying in the darkness, looking unusually eye-catching. It's just that when I finally stepped forward and saw the whole picture of the figure, I couldn't help but gasp.
That figure has already turned into a white bone.
My memory should not be wrong, the place where Ye Xianguo was seriously injured and fell was near here.
However, even if Ye Xianguo died here at that time, the decomposition and corrosion of cells and muscles required an extremely long process, so the white bone in front of him could never be Ye Xianguo.
So the question is, where did Ye Xianguo go? Is he dead or alive now? Why is this white bone here? I don't know the answer, and it seems impossible to come up with an answer anytime soon.
"Look, what is this?" In the darkness, there was a sudden exclamation from Lu Yuan, and I followed his gaze and looked over.
I saw that on the bony and skinny little arm, there was a bright silver bell hanging impressively.
The bell is as clean as new, and when you touch it, it still makes a crisp sound.
It seems that someone with a heart deliberately hung it up not long ago! In this way, the disappearance of Ye Xianguo and the appearance of this white bone seem to be explained.
Those bastards, I should have expected that I would not leave easily, so I deliberately put such a show here.
Now, I don't have much time to waste here, since I can't find Ye Xianguo anymore, so I just stop here and focus on rescuing Xiaoxue and Yirou.
Before, when the emergency power supply system was still in use, through the surveillance video, I already learned that the other party took Xiaoxue to the D area, since I can't find too many clues now, so I can only go to the D area to try my luck.
After telling Lu Yuan what I thought, the guy agreed, and then I followed him towards Area D.
As early as when I was in the underground church, Ye Xianguo had already told me that Area D was far from here, and there were two areas in the middle, and the distance was quite long. Although we didn't know the exact route of travel, fortunately, Lu Yuan and I didn't walk long before we found the route map of the underground research institute next to the passage on one side.
The road map, which was supposed to be painted with paint, had become a little blurry over the years, and some of the details were even unrecognizable.
I have to say that the whole route map is amazingly large, and it took us a long time to find on the map where we are now, and where Zone D is.
It's just that these two places span almost the entire road map.
"Are you sure that Xiaoxue and they are here?" Looking at the road map in front of him, even Lu Yuan couldn't help but gasp: "Based on the distance between these alone, it will take at least half an hour to get there, and once we go wrong, such a long time will be a complete waste." ”
To be honest, I'm not sure if District D will be able to find Xiaoxue and them.
In this dark underground laboratory, all common sense, reasoning skills, and even all kinds of tracking methods have lost their use, and all I can rely on is my own feelings.
After a while, I finally mustered up the courage and slowly said to Lu Yuan on the side: "Brother, do you trust my intuition? ”
Lu Yuan thought for a moment, glanced at his mouth, and shook his head: "To be honest, I don't believe it." ”
"Fuck you, believe it or not..."
The rest of the journey was extremely long. In the darkness, the pathways around me were very different, and I walked side by side with Lu Yuan, walking in the darkness, as if there was no hope in sight.
I've memorized the general route in my head, so I won't get lost in the dark underground research.
First through Area C, then back to Area B, through the corridors and corridors in the middle, and finally, to Area D.
As soon as I stepped through the door of the D area, an unprecedented feeling spread throughout the body, compared with the previous areas, the D area is completely different, whether it is the construction style of the surrounding walls or the layout of the space, it is slightly similar to the Western-style pavilion on the upper floor.
Lu Yuan was behind the gate, and found words similar to the living rest area. It seems that this D area should have been used for the rest of the staff of the original research institute.
After walking a short distance, I suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu around me. After searching around, he found that in the corner of the room, there was a very hidden miniature monitor.
Only then did I realize that the other party standing with Lu Yuan now was the same person I saw on the surveillance screen and where Xiaoxue was standing.
It seems that the hard work paid off, and we really caught up here.
I guess it was during this journey that the weirdo discovered that Ye Xianguo and I were spying on his movements with surveillance equipment. That's why that guy suddenly chose to destroy the emergency power supply system of the underground research institute at that time, thus paralyzing the power supply of the entire area.
It's just that the miniature monitor in the corner is clearly very hidden. That being the case, how exactly did that bastard find out about this and destroy the power system just as the home screen cuts to this area. For a moment, I still didn't figure it out.
At this moment, a strange feeling suddenly welled up in my heart. I feel that Ye Xianguo may be hiding something from me, and the truth of this underground research seems to be more than that. Perhaps, in addition to what he told me, there is something bigger hidden in this place.
Moreover, the strange person who led Xiaoxue all the way at that time also made me very concerned.
The figure of the strange man in the surveillance video made me feel very familiar, as if I had seen it more than once. But for some reason, the memory is just very familiar, and no matter how much I think about it, I can't remember it.
Forget it, let's find Xiaoxue first.
After arriving here, I don't have any more clues about that strange person and Xiaoxue's whereabouts. Luckily, there was only one path ahead, and there weren't any more forks or turns. From here on, you can't go wrong all the way forward.
"Boom!"
Just as he was about to step forward, suddenly, a terrifying laugh was remembered in the dark passage.
The voice was sharp and slender, as if it was made by a man deliberately pinching his throat. And this kind of cruel laughter, I am naturally familiar with it, whether it is in the black gold case, or in the subsequent murder case, I have heard the same cruel laughter!
Before I could find him, the other party couldn't wait to find me in trouble.
However, it is also a good thing, and I continue to wander around in this dark underground research institute.
He looked at Lu Yuan for a while, nodded tacitly, and then grabbed the flashlight and chased after him.
The sound seemed to be echoing not far from us. In the same way that the bell worked before, that guy wanted to draw us in with the sound.
"Be careful, there may be an ambush on the other side!"
Lu Yuan nodded at me, and then, a fierce light flashed in his eyes: "Don't worry, as long as those guys dare to show up, Lao Tzu will let them come and go!" ”
With Lu Yuan by my side, I feel an inexplicable sense of security in my heart, at least, it must be more reliable than when I was alone before.
simply took a step, followed the sound and chased for a while, and in the next second, a large area of coagulated blood suddenly appeared on the ground in front of him, which made people feel numb when they saw it.
"Whose blood is this?"
"I don't know! Depending on the situation, the bloodstains have been left here for a long time, and they almost all merge with the floor. "At first, I suspected that these bloodstains were left by Ye Xianguo's family and Jiang Acai decades ago. But when I think about it, I don't think it's right.
When he was struggling, suddenly, the laughter came to an abrupt end.
The next second, I saw something rush out of the darkness.
In the darkness, something seemed to rush out.
The thing was moving very fast, heading straight in the direction where Lu Yuan was.
"Be careful! There is danger! "I was facing the long way and almost blurted out. The latter also clearly sensed the danger, and subconsciously rolled forward and stood directly beside me.
Turning the direction of the flashlight, he shone towards the area where Lu Yuan was standing just now, and when he finally saw the situation clearly, he suddenly felt a cold sweat on his back.
I saw a guy dressed in red with a white faceless mask, standing in the area where Lu Yuan was before, and what the guy was holding in his hand was a bright Nepalese saber.
The saber was unusually sharp, and most of its blades were almost completely embedded in the floor. If Lu Yuan hadn't had time to dodge just now, the consequences would have been.
Could this guy with a mask be the bastard who seriously injured Ye Xianguo before? Unknown.
"Damn, it's so dangerous, I almost died here." Lu Yuan snorted coldly, took out the saber, held the handle of the knife back, and bent his knees slightly at the same time, ready to meet the enemy.
"Gao Fei, don't interfere, this guy, leave Lao Tzu alone!"
However, "Mask" didn't want to give Lu Yuan time to prepare. Before he could recover his senses, he took a step forward and rushed straight up the front.
It's just that the guy seems to be rushing up from the direct front, but the footwork is extremely erratic, which makes people a little confused. I vaguely remember that this seems to be a kind of tentative footwork used by professional boxers, which seems ferocious, but in fact can advance or retreat, and can switch from attack to defense at any time.
Then, a vicious battle broke out.
