Chapter 9: The Deadly Trap (I)
Chapter 9: The Deadly Trap
"Miss, it's already close to the city." A pleasant male voice came from the front seat, waiting for Qiu Ling's instructions.
Qiu Ling looked at the rearview mirror, and his eyes lit up.
I only thought about it, and I didn't notice the "driver" at all, the face in the mirror was very delicate, and even a little sunny, like a little student in an idol drama, but the brilliance that couldn't be concealed in his eyes faintly revealed his knowledge.
Such a person has been waiting for a long time in the Chaos Group that has not seen the light, Qiu Ling is surprised, but he really feels sorry for him.
The man was a little uncomfortable by Qiu Ling's interested expression, his handsome cheeks turned slightly red, and he coughed: "Miss, do you want to send you home?" ”
Qiu Ling changed his mind and said, "Forget it, send me to the conference and exhibition center, I want to take a walk." Expect your driving skills to be as high as your academic qualifications. ”
"When...... Of course, but you... I...... Alas when I didn't say, haha! The man's chatter was mixed with the surprise and joy of being seen through.
"The beach near the convention center is good for walking, but it's so late, miss, you ......" Before he could finish speaking, he himself laughed, and it was a bit silly to talk to the phantom about safety.
Qiu Ling also smiled.
The city's convention and exhibition center, which is nearly half a city's drive from their location at this time, will pass through two busy business districts, and the intersections around the business districts are still crowded and noisy in the middle of the night, which means that it will take a lot of time to travel. Qiu Ling looked out the window, then turned his head to look at the "driver's" faintly bored eyebrows, convinced that he had made the right decision.
Because of Bell Lim's special treatment of him, and the fact that if this plan succeeded, there was no doubt that Chu Ling would have a considerable place in the chaos, so the man's words were flattering from the beginning. Chu Ling tried to delay as much as she could, knowing that she would be able to extract some useful information from his mouth.
Sure enough, the "driver" turned his head from time to time to talk to Chu Ling.
Qiu Ling pretended to be casual and asked, "What's your name?" Harry? Peter? Hans? ”
"The weird style of the city's chaos." He laughed and said, "I'm different from them, I always insist on using Chinese names. My name is Yulin, He Yulin. ”
Qiu Ling smiled: "Yushu is in the wind? ”
He Yulin smiled embarrassedly, but did not follow.
Qiu Ling secretly gave a roll of his eyes in his heart. People with over-inflated self-confidence will naturally become conceited and flamboyant, and they are prone to saying things that should not be said.
Qiu Ling smiled and asked, "How can you only be a driver?" ”
He Yulin raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I wear many hats." Because Chaos doesn't have a driver, or even a cleaning maid. ”
Qiu Ling nodded. Chaos doesn't trust anyone.
"Yes, we do everything ourselves." He Yulin said, "Do not leak a drop of water, no flaws." ”
"But the structure of the city's base, if my guess is correct, then ......," Qiu Ling wondered, "interspersing tunnels in the mountains is a difficult and huge project, how is this ......?"
He Yulin said with a smile: "Chaos has never lacked talented architects. And the big guys who need it, the construction instrument factory doesn't know that they have left. ”
"There is no lack of your merits?" Qiu Ling looked at him with a smile.
He Yulin said: "No, the base building has been in existence for more than fifteen years, and I have not graduated at that time. ”
He paused, his eyes narrowed, and said, "I was studying for a PhD at Yale University at the time, and I have since specialized in nuclear energy, and of course the same archival records of the two bachelor's degrees I obtained at Cambridge have been successfully cleared by the organization. ”
Qiu Ling showed a look of admiration: "God. ”
He Yulin's intentional or unintentional showing off played a great role in Qiu Ling, to a certain extent, He Yulin was already in a state of semi-selflessness, and his energy was already focused on how to show himself.
Although Qiu Ling's expression was a little admired, his tone was by no means overly enthusiastic, so he tried his best to make He Yulin feel unfinished.
He Yulin smiled: "It's nothing, the academic qualifications I have are not very special in terms of chaos. ”
"It's not worth mentioning." Qiu Ling smiled secretly in his heart.
She shook her head and said, "I don't think there is a direct relationship between academic qualifications and ability. You should be the focal point when you are in college. ”
He Yulin's laughter was irrepressibly proud: "To be honest, although chaos makes me fit for it, I'm really afraid of meeting those professors in my past now." Although the archives have been destroyed, the memory of people is always indelible. ”
"Especially for outstanding students." Qiu Ling smiled and continued, "I can imagine that your parents must have been very outstanding as well. ”
"No, I don't have parents." He Yulin smiled faintly.
Qiu Ling was slightly embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry." ”
Most of the members of this kind of serious criminal organization are orphans, and even if they have family members, they will be skillfully "checked" by the power center, which was expected by Qiu Ling, she was about to take this opportunity to delve into the topic, but unexpectedly, He Yulin took the lead in laughing in order to dispel the embarrassment: "From today onwards, I will have one more part-time position." ”
"Oh?"
He Yulin turned his head and smiled, "Driver." ”
"My pleasure." Qiu Ling said with a smile.
He Yulin looked at her through the rearview mirror and said, "No, it's my honor." ”
She lowered her head, looking a little restless.
The smile on the corner of He Yulin's mouth also seemed to be more conceited.
Qiu Ling seemed to change the topic, and suddenly said: "If Chaos doesn't plant people in the police, isn't he afraid that I will swallow the treasure behind my back?" ”
He Yulin said: "Inserting people in the city's police station is a real waste of talent." ”
"Ha, yes, but then again, Chaos hasn't made a big move in this city yet."
He Yulin said: "So this operation is extremely important. If he wins in one fell swoop, the status of the city's Chaos headquarters will also be greatly improved. ”
Qiu Ling nodded and said, "It will definitely be." But I don't think I'm always invincible, and having one more person of my own will be more comfortable after all. But if I take the initiative, I am afraid that Mr. Lin will doubt my ability......"
He Yulin said: "Don't worry, of course I didn't miss this step." But I'm not stupid enough to insert people into the city bureau......" He Yulin's subconscious seemed to warn him that he was talking too much, and he suddenly cut off the conversation.
Qiu Ling's heart was beating wildly, first of all, there must be chaotic black policemen among the police officers on this trip, and secondly, He Yulin must be more than just a highly educated minion. But she still remained calm, and said in an understanding tone: "I understand, these things can only be known by Mr. Lin and a few others. ”
He Yulin was unconvinced, he didn't want to appear that his status was not high in front of Qiu Ling, and blurted out: "Of course I have to be present at every meeting. There are some things that don't require too many people to be involved, but unlike others, I don't like to be manipulated by others. ”
Qiu Ling believed that if He Yulin knew the details, he would definitely reveal it at this time, but he was not one of the conspirators working at the moment.
Combined with the conversation with Bell Lim, Chulin seemed to have come to a conclusion, but he didn't feel to touch it.
Her thoughts were becoming confused, and she felt an invisible pressure pressing her head.
What's more, it is going straight to the throat of the city's police.
"Miss, it's here." He Yulin parked his car on the road near the beach, where there were few cars and young people sat around the beach, MP4s glittering in their pockets.
Qiu Ling got out of the car, turned around and joked, "Do you have any overtime pay tonight?" ”
He Yulin looked at his watch and said with a smile: "If I share a car with you, I have to ask for overtime pay, and I will be beaten when I go back." ”
"Haha, then, goodbye." Qiu Ling knocked on the window railing.
He Yulin tore off a note and laughed as he wrote: "The organization does not allow business cards to be printed. ”
He handed the note to Ling Chen, made a "phone contact" gesture, and the car disappeared into the night scene.
Qiu Ling glanced at the piece of paper, crumpled it into a ball, and bounced it into the waste bin on the side of the road.
She never despises anyone, but her mysterious experiences since childhood have given her a well-developed way of remembering.
Her long hair fluttered in the sea breeze, just like her thoughts at this time.
Is it possible for the new product of the R&D department to be a kind of glasses that can probe the hearts of others?
Chaos "invited" Shen Tianli to come, naturally it would not be for demonstration, so what is it for?
And are you really trusted?
Chu Ling put her dark sweatshirt and hood on her head, and walked along the coastal road with her arms crossed, her back like a lonely ghost in gothic wallpaper under the darkness of the night.
The cold wind of the night made her feel a wave of confusion and fear, and a bad premonition gradually invaded her.
If this finished product really exists, and the secrecy of the small country is at the forefront of the international community, how can the news be leaked so easily? Even if the leakage of the secrets of the country's R&D department is considered an accident, then he and Shen Tianli are ostensibly entrusted separately, who is this who let the wind into Chaos?
"I would never be stupid enough to insert someone in the city bureau......"
The words spoken by the members of Chaos swirled in Qiu Ling's mind.
"If you don't believe me, you can try it out with a judge......
"You can find a trial ......"
"Yes, someone who will definitely surprise you......"
Situation!
Chu Ling suddenly felt that he had been deceived, and was walking into a sparse but imperceptible trap.
"Nonsense!" Qiu Ling couldn't help but muttered to himself. But isn't that the only possibility? When something has too many "impossible" conditions, the only possibility, even if it is difficult for you to accept, is the only possibility.
And, after knowing the information about the finished product, Qiu Ling trusted his own inference even more.
As long as Chaos bets this operation on Qiu Ling, at a critical juncture, as long as Qiu Ling does not act according to the original plan, the finished product can safely cross the border.
Now, however, Chu Ling doesn't believe that the ambitions of the situation are less than those of Bell Lim.
Yes, as the deputy director of R&D, he had the idea of guarding himself from the beginning. The only option for him to claim this miraculous invention of science for himself, but to ensure that he can get out of it, is to cooperate with a high-level criminal organization. Since his main job was diplomacy, this provided him with great convenience.
The second step is to find a scapegoat or a group of scapegoats. The police in this city and Qiu Ling, who has a special relationship with the police, are naturally double shields. As soon as the finished product was stolen, no one would believe that it was completely Chaos' doing, and even Shen Tianli and himself would be suspicious of each other, because they had both been in contact with Chaos. What's more, this invention is too tempting.
That's why Chaos must "invite" Shen Tianli to patronize!
As a suspect, Shen Tianli will naturally be dismissed and detained. And Qiu Ling's identity has also been exposed, and it is impossible to spy on it.
From beginning to end, the judge was in control of the overall situation, and every move carefully planned by himself, allowing himself to take the initiative to collude with Chaos, in his eyes, it was like watching two children play chess.
Chu Ling rested her hand on the lamppost, but the hanging street lamp swayed violently and coldly, telling her that she had nothing to rely on. She collapsed on the bench by the sea.
Once Chaos has such a magical weapon, almost all the secrets of the world are open to them, and they can even manipulate the world with ease, and everyone will live in their shadows. But in fact, isn't this trip much more terrifying and easy than the chaos that can't see the light?
Qiu Ling stroked the tarot card with the "fool" drawn, stared upside down, and suddenly tightened her eyebrows, but her eyes gradually became bright, and her other hand pulled out a card with the painting "hermit", holding a card in each hand, and lightly buckled it on the bench, and the whole person was bouncing. In an instant, she had decided that she wanted to stop this crisis no matter what, and the first step now was to fight the situation with all her might, not chaos.
Although her heart was still tense and depressed, she had begun to take a leisurely stroll. Because she understands that the more unfavorable the situation, the more useless it is to be anxious, it is better to calm down and think about countermeasures. What's more, Chaos' precaution and hostility to the situation at the beginning must be no less than his own at this moment.
At this time, it is close to midnight, there are no business events held in the convention and exhibition center tonight, there are very few vehicles nearby, and there will be no empty taxis to drive here, and all taxi apps need to fill in personal phone numbers, of course, they can't use it. Qiu Ling pressed the faint light on the mobile phone screen, and regretted that he should report a more lively place to He Yulin. As it stands, I don't know how long I will have to stay.
And in such a chaotic and dangerous situation, things can change at any time.
"Hey, what are you doing here?" A Mercedes-Benz business car passed past Qiu Ling, but when he saw the situation, he poked his head out, revealing only a delicate and expensive bow tie: "Get in the car!" ”
