Chapter 16: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada, and the Yellow Finch Follows (1)
At this time, Wan Ye, who was speeding up to overcome obstacles on the road and rushed to the research laboratory, suddenly received a call from Chaozhe.
Wan Ye stopped and neatly clicked the button to listen: "Eh? Did something happen?"
Wu Sheng saw that Wan Ye had stopped and was communicating with Chaozhe, so he also stopped to observe the situation.
Chaozhe in the display screen looked around through the screen of the communicator, and found that it was only the two of them, so he couldn't help but ask anxiously, "Isn't the deputy team with you?"
Wan Ye explained in time: "Later, he said that he was worried that Li Zhen would have an accident, so he changed his route to find him in the data room halfway."
Library? That's what the captain said about the archives. Chaozhe secretly screamed in his heart that it was not good, and the variables he had never thought of appeared.
Zou Xiaqi's current situation looks very unimpressive, no matter who rushes into the archives alone, 100% will encounter the AP434 team, it will definitely be dead.
Twilight also felt a burst of shock in her heart after learning that Zou Xiaqi went to the archives, she and Chaozhe were running towards the archives at this time, it seemed that the situation had deteriorated, and now it was like a game of chess, any move was irregular, unexpected.
Maybe you can run into a side team, which is the best case scenario. If not......
Twilight didn't dare to think about it again.
Chaozhe recalls the scene when Twilight was repairing MATAU just now.
"MATAU, CAN YOU HELP DEFUSE THE BOMBS IN THE TRANSPORT CORRIDOR?" Twilight asked.
"Sorry, my answer is no. Most of the transport corridor is outside of R-E031 Research and is outside my protective range. MATAU REPLIED SLOWLY, "IF YOUR TEAMMATES ARE IN R-E031, I STILL HAVE THE STRENGTH TO PROTECT THEM, AND IF THEY TAKE A STEP OUT OF THE INSTITUTE, I'M SORRY THAT I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH TO DO FROM THEN ON." ”
Chao Zhe suddenly felt a little relieved now, at least Zou Xiaqi was still in the research institute and could be protected by MATAU.
He wiped his sweat and hurriedly said to them: "Wan Ye, captain, according to our new discovery, the purifier has been damaged, there is no need to start it again, let's go to the archives to meet."
"Okay." Wan Ye responded with her unchanging smile, and Wu Sheng also nodded.
The next second when the phone hung up, several uninvited guests also appeared around the two of them.
They were also quick to perceive the hostility approaching in the darkness like a snake, and the faintly revealed cold light intimidated the two of them.
Wan Ye's delicate eyes narrowed dissatisfiedly: "There will be other people interfering."
She quickly drew a sharp blade from her waist and pressed it against the palm of her other palm, her slightly bowed body like a beast waiting for an opportunity to move.
Wan Ye suddenly made an international friendly gesture to them with his knife-wielding hand extremely mockingly, and stuck out his tongue very wickedly, looking very frivolous, treating the battle as just a fight, only to hear her then provoke: "Don't think it's easy to bully if it's a woman, you guys will cry like that!"
"After all, in the troubled times, it is inevitable that some people who do not abide by the way will grab the task." Wu Sheng happily took out the machine gun on his back and resisted it steadily. "Looks like it's time for a big deal."
Several figures rushed out of the darkness, and the blue button on the chest of the leader flickered as a sign, officially blowing the horn of the battlefield here.
On the other side, Twilight and Chaozhe, who had sped up to rush to the archives, finally returned to the corner of the corridor near the archives again, the crossroads of fate.
This time, instead of speculating here, Chaozhe chose to cautiously stick out his head to observe the Li Zhen and the others who were busy working there, while Twilight was here and MATAU's mechanical arm to take precautions.
Chao Zhe keenly observed, there was still a black trench coat man and a scar man guarding Li Zhi's side, Li Zhen was quickly operating the equipment connected to the door of the archive room, but he looked as if there was a trace of confusion on his face, which was a twisted expression compared to his movements.
He finally noticed that something was wrong.
Twilight looked at Chaozhe's face, convinced that he had sensed something he should have noticed.
Seeing this situation, Twilight was busy mending the knife and said, "You also saw that expression, did he also show it when you went to drink together before?"
A memory came to Chaozhe's mind based on the information provided by Twilight.
That was shortly after Lee joined the team.
Wu Sheng took Zou Xiaqi and Chaozhe to warmly invite Li Zhen to the base bar for a drink.
Li Zhen looked very reluctant at the time, but he couldn't refuse this kindness, his face was embarrassed, and he still followed them very realistically.
That's what it looked like at the time.
The brow is slightly furrowed, the corners of the mouth are lowered, and the eyes look very focused, but they will make actions that are contrary to their expressions.
Chaozhe's argument that Li Zhen had a last resort has increased its credibility by a few points.
This is a conclusion that belongs to a sober analysis and trust in former comrades-in-arms, which is different from the previous reckless impulses.
The more he thought about this, the more guilty Chao Zhe felt, and when he saw Li Zhen shaken, he couldn't help but suspect that he might think of Li Zhen too ruthlessly.
