Wasteland Survival Code

Chapter 841 Liquidated Damages

George held the big beaker in his arms like a baby. Every time he walked a certain distance, he would move away the finger blocking the small hole to release some gas. In this way, a lavender trail gradually appeared on Qi Lin. It appeared before their eyes.

"This... is a bit powerful..." Although Qi Lin has a lot of prejudice against this guy George, he has to say that this guy really has some skills that ordinary people don't have. Using this trace, he wants to find Song Xiaodie The difficulty literally plummeted.

He and Qi Lin guessed right at the beginning. After wandering around the station for a while, the purple-red trail began to move towards the slum area. As for the direction of the middle area, the same purple-red color did not appear. trace.

"In places like underground shelters where there is less air flow, the traces left by the blood race can last for about a week, and the traces of the ancestor blood race can last for more than half a month. If no traces are found in this direction, it means She hasn't been to the middle."

"That should be in the slums!" Qi Lin said excitedly.

"Basically, I'm sure." George nodded, and the purple-red traces appeared at the entrances of many tunnels, which meant that Song Xiaodie had stayed at the entrances of these tunnels for a while, but they were located on the left. The traces of purple red at the entrance of the tunnel in Ertiao are the most intense, and it is obvious that this is her last choice.

Qi Lin suddenly remembered that when she first met Song Xiaodie, she was also avoiding the chase of the executor. At that time, without breathing equipment, she plunged into the tunnels of the slums, and the choice was also It is the second tunnel from the left.

Many people may think that this is just a coincidence, but Qi Lin does not think so. In the subconscious of people, there are many preferences that are difficult to detect. For example, there seems to be no preference for a certain number or a certain color. Different options will have different weights in front of this subconscious preference.

Just like Song Xiaodie, when there is a fork in front of her, if every fork looks the same, subconsciously she will choose the second fork from the left, unless she consciously chooses the fork. option to avoid, otherwise the probability of choosing this fork will be much higher than the others.

But now Song Xiaodie's consciousness should be in a semi-awake state. In this state, her various behaviors are basically supported by instinct, and the leading role of her subconscious mind will be suppressed at this time. Magnified many times - Qi Lin can basically be sure that Song Xiaodie must be hiding somewhere in this tunnel right now.

"Go... wait, I think... we may be in trouble..." George was about to walk towards this tunnel, when suddenly his face changed suddenly, and his arms subconsciously held the large beaker in his arms Protected.

A group of soldiers in white uniforms and armbands of the research institute have surrounded them. These people are obviously the "search team" sent by Abel to shelter 209.

The effect of the developer is indeed very remarkable, but it is too "conspicuous". The purple-red traces dispersed in the air can be seen by anyone who is not blind. It is completely unexpected that it will attract the search team among the things.

"We are performing official duties. A very dangerous fugitive may be hiding in the depths of this tunnel. We need to go in and investigate. I hope you can get out of the way." A person with the rank of warrant officer said, Qi Lin noticed , the safety of the submachine gun in the opponent's hand is already in the open state, and he can shoot at any time.

"We also have important tasks, so I'm afraid we won't be able to cooperate with you." Qi Lin stepped forward and said tit for tat.

"We are a subordinate force of the organization research institute. We have an order document issued by the institute and the parliament. According to the content of the order document, if there is an obstacle, we can directly shoot and kill it without reporting it. "The warrant officer said coldly, the meaning of the threat in the words was already very clear.

"I am an agent of the Shadow Troops of the Parliament. I also have the right to kill you first and then act later." Qi Lin said. If you don’t have a unit, you’d better call and ask your immediate superior.”

"Shadow Troop?!" The warrant officer's eyes showed a hint of fear. Obviously, he knew about this secret spy force directly controlled by the parliament. As for the other searchers, their faces were rather dazed.

"Very well, it seems that you know, then you should also know what kind of authority I have?" Qi Lin continued to press.

"I know..." the warrant officer gritted his teeth, but soon he set his sights on George, "If I'm not mistaken, this is Mr. George Van Helsing, right?"

"It's me, what do you want?" George took a step back, but he did not deny the other party's inquiry. Of course, denying it was useless.

"I remember Mr. George, you should be our partner. Why did you appear here?" The warrant officer narrowed his eyes, looked George up and down and asked.

"Didn't the employment agreement say that I can act independently? You shouldn't be able to control that much, right?"

"Yeah, the agreement does give you the freedom to act independently, but you said it yourself, it's an independent action—except for us, you can't cooperate with anyone, including this shadow force agent. You have now violated the agreement, do you know what the consequences are?"

"It's a big deal, I'll return the deposit to you, I won't do this order!" George was also very straightforward.

"Returning the deposit is not enough. According to the agreement, you need to pay fifty times the deposit as liquidated damages, and you need to pay within three to 10 minutes after the scope agreement."

"Fifty times? So much?!" George was stunned and lost his voice.

When he signed the employment agreement back then, he focused entirely on the remuneration, and he didn't care about the liquidated damages at all. Anyway, even if the mission failed and the blood race couldn't be found, it wouldn't be considered a breach of contract. In George's view at the time, it was absolutely impossible for him to voluntarily give up this lucrative task.

"George, how much deposit did you get?" Qi Lin turned to George and asked.

"...one...one million points."

"Fifty times, that's 5000 million. I hope Mr. George can pay the liquidated damages immediately, otherwise, we will take coercive measures." The warrant officer said word by word.
