Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 1491 About the station

... When the operation began, she had to try not to let Qiandao find out that the defensive staff in his first office had been neutralized.

The sound of Lin Sanjiu's breathing was as slight as if it didn't exist.

She had been lying in the ventilation duct for several minutes.For the sake of safety, Bai Cong only led her to the headquarters of Qiandao Company. She groped through the ventilation ducts for a while before she finally found the correct one, and slowly climbed to the top of his office—— Like all rooms, his office has a ventilation fan.

Looking down from here, the black-haired man belonging to Qiandao stood up for a while, sat down for a while, walked around the room a few times from time to time, and occasionally opened the door into the corridor to listen to the movement, obviously full of anxiety.

Everyone was waiting for the time when Qiandao took money for the first time, and this moment was getting closer and closer.

When Qiandao opened the door for the fourth time and read the message on his door, Lin Sanjiu heard him let out a low breath, as if relieved of a heavy burden.Immediately, he whispered, "Hire...a defensive staff."

Bai Cong guessed right!
The voice fell, and after a few minutes in the room, a defensive employee appeared standing there.Lin Sanjiu's heart was pounding, and she even worried that the voice would be heard by the people below—Qiandao turned around twice, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally slowly opened the door.

Sure enough, he was also aware of the office's personnel restrictions, and was about to rent out a second office.

Lin Sanjiu glanced at the note in his hand again, it was a special item belonging to He Baihe, [Hongyan Family Letter], probably another version of the paper crane.A piece of paper is divided into two halves, and each person holds half; whichever side has something to say, just write it on the paper, and the written information will emerge from the other half of the paper in real time.Although it is not as fast as voice communication, it is worse than enough quiet and concealed.

"He hasn't rented a second office yet," wrote He Baihe a few minutes ago, "I've already met with Bai Cong, and now we're separated, hiding near Qiandao's office, I'm far away from his office About a corridor or two away. We'll let you know as soon as we see him."

[Hongyan's Family Letter] There are only two halves, so I can't give Bai Cong a piece; he can only hide it far away, and if he finds anything, he will use an ordinary voice communicator to contact He Baihe, and He Baihe will tell Lin Sanjiu.

Lin Sanjiu put down the piece of paper, and slowly and gently took a breath.Qiandao turned the doorknob and walked into the corridor——when the door panel closed with a "dong", she said in a low voice, "Attack."

While waiting, she thought about countless possibilities, each of which was worse than the other; for example, the attack that didn't stand outside the door didn't count, or the game didn't allow her to crawl into the ventilation fan in Qiandao's office at all—but this time At this moment, as soon as she spoke, the defensive staff who had just appeared below immediately disappeared peacefully, without any intention of causing trouble for her.

"5 minutes," Teacher Yi said immediately in his mind, "the countdown starts from now."

The first step was completed, Lin Sanjiu closed his eyes.

During these 5 minutes, she could only lie down in the ventilation duct as it was, waiting for the next time to attack.She unfolded the note, uncarded a pen, and wrote softly: "Qiandao just left, and I have already canceled his first defensive employee."

The handwriting belonging to He Baihe quickly floated up from the blank space below this line: "Got it. I have already informed Bai Cong that as soon as he appears, we will keep an eye on him."

With Qian Dao's mind, he probably wouldn't have guessed that there might be people from Lin Sanjiu nearby—even if he couldn't expect Bai Cong to join, he still knew who He Baihe was willing to contribute to.He must be extremely careful now, and the two of them might not be able to detect him smoothly for a while.

Just as Lin Sanjiu expected, after 2 minutes, there was still no update on [Hongyan Family Letter].In the narrow square tube, she moved her neck slightly, and maintained the same posture, writing, "How? Is there any sign of him?"

"No," He Baihe's handwriting continued to reappear after being broken for a while: "I didn't hear any noise nearby... I suspect he used that kind of hiding and tracking method. But don't worry, his trick It’s okay to use it once, but Bai Cong and I already know how to deal with it if we use it too much.”

"The more careful Qiandao is, the longer it will take," Lin Sanjiu replied, "If he stays outside for more than 5 minutes, then we won't even need a backup plan."

"If only it were that easy." He Lily said briefly.

If Qiandao rented a second office, He Baihe and Bai Cong would immediately pass on the address of the second room to Lin Sanjiu, and also add his movement information: For example, did Qiandao stay in the second office? He was defending in the second room, but he was still preparing to go home.

If he doesn't return, of course everyone is happy, Lin Sanjiu can take over his headquarters smoothly; if he returns, then Lin Sanjiu will rush to his second office at the same time The defensive staff also offset it-in this way, the first hundred yuan Qiandao got was basically gone.

When he got his second hundred yuan, he would find that he couldn't defend the two offices at the same time, and attack Lin Sanjiu with attacking employees—because there was not enough money.

"This plan has a fatal weakness," Bai Cong once said before the group set off: "If he knew about our existence before renting the second office, he might not be able to hold on to it." …For example, don’t rent a second office at all, just drive out the customers who have just contributed once, leaving blank places.”

"Would he have planned to do this?" He Lily was very worried about this.

"Impossible," Lin Sanjiu dispelled her and Bai Cong's worries with one sentence: "When you attacked my office, I tried to drive customers and employees into another empty office, pretending that it was the only place where the office was located. My headquarters. But no matter what I tried at the time, they couldn’t move. I don’t think unless it’s moving an office, once the employees and customers start working, they can’t move.”

...In other words, apart from renting an extra office and being dragged into defeat by this office, Qiandao has almost no other choice.

After reminding himself of this point, Lin Sanjiu exhaled, feeling his hanging heart relax a little.

Three minutes and 40 seconds passed, and there was still silence in the office and in the corridor outside, without a single sound.

"Is there any news about him?" She asked in [Hongyan's Family Letter].

"No," He Baihe's reply immediately floated up, faintly anxious, "I've searched here several times, where did this person go?"

There was obviously no progress on Bai Cong's side.As soon as Qiandao left the office, it was like a bubble disappearing into the ocean, and no one could find him.Lin Sanjiu rubbed his temples, resisting the urge to leave from the ventilation duct.

When the time passed, and at the 4th minute, she heard a slight sound outside the office door below, and then the door was pushed open by Qiandao.He poked his head into the room and took a look. He didn't realize that the guards were gone, but closed the door behind him; the black-haired man walked slowly into the room, stopped in the middle, looked around, and said, "Huh?" One sound—he found it.

"He's back," Lin Sanjiu wrote hastily. "He's back in less than 5 minutes. If you search within 5 minutes, you will definitely find his second office!"

He Lily didn't reply for a while this time, probably because he was busy searching the corridors.

Qiandao didn't seem to have the habit of talking to himself.He strode across the cubicle, and seeing that the defensive staff had disappeared, he remained silent for two seconds, clenched his fists, and sat down on a chair.With him around, it would be a waste of opportunity for Lin Sanjiu to attack this office again; she could only attack the other party's second office and consume as much money as possible from Qiandao—but after waiting for a long time, and Baihe and Bai Satoshi never found the location of Qiandao's second office.

"Not yet?" she urged on the letter.

"Really not!" He Baihe's handwriting this time was big and messy, as if he was writing while walking.

……impossible.Qiandao left in less than 5 minutes, and the office he rented must be within 5 minutes away; his speed is about the same as that of He Baihe and Bai Cong, so he won't be out of reach in a short time The place.

What's more, the two of them spread out and blocked his office in the middle. As long as he goes out, at least one person will definitely notice him... How could he escape the eyes of the two and rent the second office silently?
Lin Sanjiu felt like a layer of fire was burning on the vest, which made her mouth dry.Could it be that the plan of gathering the strength and wisdom of the three of them is not worth Qiandao alone?If she were Qiandao, how would she hide the second office?

"No matter how you think about it, it's impossible," Teacher Yi murmured, "I've checked this plan several times. First, if Qiandao wants to attack you, he must rent a second office; Went to rent a second office, the two people outside should have found it long ago. He can't hide the office, and there are no secret passages here..."

"How many minutes have passed?" Lin Sanjiu held back his anxiety and asked.

"It's almost 6 minutes."

Inexplicable panic hit her chest, and it even made her feel that it was very difficult to keep still in the ventilation duct.There is no problem with the plan made by the few of them. If there is no problem with the plan, it is...

"You stop first," she quickly wrote on "Hongyan's Family Letter", "I'm going to whistle, tell me if you heard it!"

"What?" He Lily was surprised through the paper.

Lin Sanjiu stared closely at the top of Qiandao's head below, put his finger between his lips, and blew a sharp and long lip whistle - Qiandao was shocked and stood up from the chair.

...just stood up, but did not look up in the direction of the whistle.

When Lin Sanjiu's heart suddenly sank into the abyss, He Baihe's words appeared on the paper again. "Did you blow it?"

This time, she understood everything.

No one else was in their place at this moment except herself.
