Chapter 7: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada and the Yellow Finch (1)
It was Twilight and Li Zhen discussing the map before, presumably she must be more familiar with the research institute than herself, Chaozhe walked to the approximate location according to the map he had seen before, and still didn't see the sign of the general affairs office.
He turned his head to ask Twilight, who was following him, "Is the general affairs office over here?" ”
Twilight showed an expected expression, and pointed to the fork in the road in front of him, pointing to the corridor to the right, "Well, it's over there." She stepped forward and led the way for Chaozhe.
He hadn't walked far before Twilight stopped at a door.
Seeing this, Chaozhe habitually looked at the door number, but there was nothing. This made him question, "Are you sure it's here?" I didn't see the same sign as the other doors. ”
Twilight looked up and looked a little unexpected, and she didn't know what was going on: "Yes, but that's what the map of the institute shows...... Maybe it was abandoned and destroyed. ”
"The door is closed, how do I get in?" This reason convinced the puzzled Chaozhe, and he turned his gaze to the closed steel door. "I didn't expect the door of the general affairs office to be locked. It seems that this task is not very easy to do. Or a violent breakthrough? ”
Chaozhe looked around, and there didn't seem to be a gap in the wall that he could enter, so it seemed that he could only enter through the door.
Twilight then suggested, "If you blow a hole out of the bomb, maybe the research institute won't be able to hold on like it was before." ”
Wait, bombs? As soon as I arrived in the hall of the research institute, the floor collapsed, and I did hear any sound before the collapse, but the collapse sound was too deafening, and I was busy fleeing before I didn't think about it, and those sounds were indeed very similar to bombs.
Li Zhen wanted to go to the archives alone, but it happened that the hall collapsed, and it seemed that a bomb had been planted here before. However, Li Zhen had been staying with us when he was traveling, and he had other missions with him before coming to the R-E031 Research Institute, so it is unlikely that he set it up.
It seems that it came from the person who went to meet Li Zhen before the mission began.
Can be stolen after a mission...... But they didn't, and it seems that they didn't want us to go back alive. Then the other party can't be an individual, it must be a team and Li Qianli should be together. If there is no head-on conflict, then I don't want them to suffer casualties.
If his mission to clear out the traitors is leaked, and if he doesn't let Wu Sheng's team go back alive, he will be planted here, and the traitors will not be eliminated, and the mission assigned to him by the Doomsday Agency will fail, all of which is in line with it.
Yili in Chaozhe's body felt self-admiration because of this logical and clear thinking, and experienced an ability that he didn't have before, which was really refreshing.
Twilight, who noticed Chao Zhe in a daze, called him softly: "What's wrong with you?" ”
"Huh? It's okay, I'm wondering how I'm going to relax after the mission. He casually found a reason to prevaricate, "After all, this time I am doing tasks in a row, and I am very tired." ”
Twilight glanced at him, not wanting to continue asking, she pointed to the door, "I unlocked the door when you were in a daze, let's go in quickly." ”
"So fast, so powerful."
"After all, we need to hurry."
Twilight walked in quickly.
Chaozhe, who followed in, took a general look at the environment inside, the space was indeed very large, piles of machinery and equipment were piled up in front of the operating table, and there was a table with a huge display screen, and on the opposite side of the table, there was a maintenance bin like a chrysalis.
Looking at this strange maintenance compartment, he couldn't help but ask Twilight, "What is this?" ”
"A maintenance machine that is popular among scientists, functions like a bed, and can be cared for and maintained while sleeping. Ensure that scientists get the most adequate rest in the shortest amount of sleep. ”
"There's a bed in the general affairs room."
Twilight replied without hesitation, "Maybe it's hard to be in charge, there are already a lot of scientists in the institute, and it's more than enough to give him one." ”
This is a bit different from the general affairs room imagined by Chao Zhe, he thought that the general affairs room should be the kind of room full of surveillance, extremely dim, and nothing else.
It was a messy place, with wide open drawers, magnetic cards and wires on the floor, and a lot of storage disks, which seemed to be the reason why he was a little outdated in his thinking or rarely visited the general affairs office, which was probably the case in places like the general affairs office.
Perhaps sensing that he had been immersed in his thoughts for too long, he came back to his senses to look for Twilight, only to find that she was looking for something.
Chao Zhe asked intimately: "Have you found the employee magnetic card?" ”
"Still looking."
"What does it look like, I'll look for it with you."
"Well, it's probably the generic kind, you look at the text logo." After Twilight prompted, Chaozhe, who understood, quickly half-squatted down and rummaged through the pile of magnetic cards scattered on the ground.
Twilight rummaged in the other corner, and suddenly a bright color appeared in the messy room.
She gently removed the disk and magnetic card that were blocking the thing, revealing that it was a specimen of dandelion flowers. Tapping off the ash and reading the words written on it, she conveniently put it in her pocket.
Looking at the paper materials on the ground, she stepped on them ruthlessly after probably touring them, and couldn't help muttering: "It's all useless." ”
Suddenly, she felt as if she had stepped on something hard under the pile of paper.
Her eyes widened slightly in excitement, but Chaozhe, who had his back to her, didn't see it. Twilight eagerly lifted the paper, revealing a tiny thumb-sized piece of iron.
She picked it up and looked at it carefully, and sure enough, it was also a USB flash drive. Thinking of something, she clutched it tightly in her hand.
"Did you find anything?" Chaozhe was in this chaotic scene, and he really couldn't find the magnetic card he wanted.
"Found it." Twilight quickly put the USB flash drive in her pocket, picked up the blue magnetic card on the ground on the other side, and held it up to show Chaozhe.
Chaozhe stood up, shook his legs that had been squatting for a long time, and his eyes lit up happily: "Great, let's go." ”
