Chapter 44 Chasing Daydreams

The speed of the chain pulling the object was very fast. Zhang Deng tried to open his eyes, but was immediately pierced by the wind and burst into tears.

But with just this glance, he saw a very astonishing scene.

It turns out that starting from the direction he started, from top to bottom, from east to west, there are hundreds of chains that are far or near.No, it should be more than that, definitely more than a few hundred.

In the twilight, the iron chains laid in all directions are like a net, connecting the two spaces and continuously transporting items.

Zhang Deng was tied to the stick at this time, feeling that his soul was going to be blown away by the strong wind, so he finally hugged the chain and protective gear tightly.

Ten seconds later, he slammed into an iron stone, and another person wearing the same protective clothing as the guide came over to untie Zhang Deng.

"Be careful." The man said politely, "The Tianluo Chain is the patent of Thunder God and Lightning Mother. It is an extremely fast tool made by using the absolute attraction of current between points. If you are not careful, you will be electrocuted to death. Soul is no exception. , so please don’t touch the iron chain in high-speed movement without wearing protective clothing.”

Where did Zhang Deng dare to touch, he ran off the stage quickly after taking off his protective gear.

After the guide returned to the local office, the third-to-last confirmation message came from his ultimatum.He lowered his head and read it carefully, and he knew Liu Bai's location.

The news explained the positions of the ghost envoys of each team, and of course Liu Bai's position.

"It's three o'clock in the morning...the notice said that all the teams must be in place before nine o'clock in the morning." Zhang Deng glanced at it for a while, and couldn't help muttering, "Then can I take a little rest?"

The guide around him cast a strange look at him.

"...Of course, my lord, you can naturally take a rest. Even the soul body needs enough sleep." The man said.

Zhang Deng always felt a little embarrassed when he recalled how everyone was in a hurry in the underworld, and of course he could feel the pressure of the imminent event.It's just that he also understands that many things cannot be changed, just like fate, born an African with black hands and feet, cannot make him a fair-skinned European.

"Excuse me, will you be very busy later?" Zhang Deng asked.

The guide took him to the door, nodded and said: "It should be. After all, it is considered a big disaster, and there has never been a similar incident in the past 20 years."

disaster?What accident caused it?

"Is there no possibility of avoiding it?" Zhang Deng realized later, and suddenly felt his heart beating faster, and he was a little out of breath.

"No. You know, we can't rewrite the fate of people." The guide looked at his watch, "Even if someone is saved, someone will die for him; even if he doesn't die now, he will die one day of."

Zhang Deng understood such a simple truth.

People will always die, one day earlier or one day later, the difference will not be too much.It's just that he now knows that a major event that may kill many people will happen in the near future, but he can only watch from the sidelines, which is too painful for him.

If a person has a little compassion, he will feel more or less sad when he sees another living being die.This is not hypocrisy, but the complete despair of the macro laws of the universe, the complete despair of losing many opportunities.

Zhang Deng got on the special bus for public officials in the city and returned to Liu Bai's home.

He looked at himself who was lying on the spot and sound asleep, feeling a little confused.

He put the knife in his arms aside, wanted to lie on his body, and tried to go back.But for some reason, I tried several times and failed.He cannot return to his own body.

The ultimatum in his hand suddenly lit up, and gave him a reminder:

"In case of special missions, all field personnel must keep their physical bodies or host bodies well. This ultimatum will form an enchantment on the spirit body, and it will not be restored until the mission is over."

He thought for a while and realized what was going on now.

Therefore, the current protective barrier is of the "no entry and exit" type, so if he wants to sleep, he can only sleep next to his body.Zhang Deng sighed, and wanted to set an alarm clock, but found that he couldn't even touch the phone, and passed his hand straight through the phone.

What an inconvenience.He had no choice but to go to the sofa, put the stick on the sofa, and then he barely lay down.

Four hours later, he rubbed his tired eyes and got up.

can't sleep.Couldn't sleep well at all.He wasn't used to resting in a disembodied state, and he had no intention of falling asleep.

The sleepiness of ordinary people is caused by the body to the mind. As long as the mind is not forced, it is not difficult to fall asleep.But there is no sleepiness in the sleep of the spiritual body, so many practitioners start to learn meditation after leaving the physical body, and sleep in this way.

Zhang Deng obviously couldn't do it, so he could only go out again in frustration, heading to where Liu Bai was.

※※※

The location assigned to Liu Bai was in another area, and it was already seven o'clock when Zhang Deng left, so he had to take the nearest subway to get there.

Interestingly, the crowd in the morning rush hour seemed completely invisible to him, and magically avoided him consciously.Therefore, Zhang Deng was not deformed by the crowd in the subway, but got out of the subway smoothly.

Wow.

Is this the privilege of the clergy... He couldn't help but marvel in his heart.It's unbelievable, although I still feel very happy to accept this setting.

Many ordinary office workers got out of the subway and walked with him to a certain building in the center of the CBD.

It was working time, and Zhang Deng felt more and more flustered as he walked away.People around couldn't hear his footsteps, couldn't feel his presence, but Zhang Deng already had some ideas about their future destiny in his heart.

Why are you still not leaving?Are you not afraid of death?

Zhang Deng was anxious, and accidentally bumped into an office worker walking towards him.

The other party seemed to have lost his balance suddenly, staggered two steps, picked up the briefcase on the ground in doubt, and continued to walk to the other side of the road.Zhang Deng pulled his arm hard, trying to grab him, but was suddenly stabbed back by the electric current on his body.He also wanted to pull other people, but without exception, he was stabbed back by the current of the enchantment belt on his body.

After trying about forty or fifty times, he also walked all the way to the target location.

Somewhat disheartened, Zhang Deng got on the elevator and reached the No.18 floor.

Turning left and turning right, he came to a conference room.It happened that a late employee rushed in from beside him, and Zhang Deng followed him into the door.

"No, there are too many loopholes in the plan. The first is the issue of income and expenditure, and there is no way to balance it."

Sitting at the decision-making table, a bald middle-aged man wearing glasses wiped the oil on his forehead with a handkerchief, and seriously rejected the proposal proposer standing in front of the projector.

Zhang Deng saw Liu Bai standing at the back at a glance.

His face was covered with a white cloth, and he was leaning against the wall with his arms folded to listen.Similarly, Liu Bai also immediately saw Zhang Deng, straightened his posture immediately, and opened his mouth slightly, probably in surprise.

"I think there is still room for maneuver." At this time, a woman wearing glasses sitting opposite expressed her opinion, "We can not use the all-glass design, but take a step back and use fully transparent materials, such as the newly developed Steel-like transparent plastic."

Zhang Deng walked back quickly, but Liu Bai spoke first: "Why are you here?"

"You are here, how could I not come." Zhang Deng sighed.

"No, the mission this time is too dangerous, you can't handle it yet. Hey, what are those old men thinking? Why did they let you come here..." Liu Bai talked too much when he got angry, and Zhang Deng couldn't bear it. I can't help but want to laugh.But there were too many things in his heart, a smile only appeared in his heart, and then disappeared.

"For a while, you will stay by my side. I will guide you in the work of ecstasy, don't mess around by yourself."

"Good master."

"Don't call me master."

"Good Master Bai."

"Don't call me Master Bai."

"Good master."

"Is there any difference between this and just now...?"

"Yes, the guard master and the master of the master-student relationship."

Liu Bai waved his hand with an expression of "you are mentally retarded", "Okay, you stand aside and don't talk."

"Oh." Zhang Deng obediently stood beside the wall and squatted down.

Liu Bai: "..."

※※※

In the second half of the meeting, the discussion became heated.As Zhang Deng listened, he remembered his previous experience as an intern.At that time, he reluctantly participated in several meetings, because he was introduced by an acquaintance, and he practiced very seriously.But in fact, he didn't understand much, especially when he didn't have much access to materials.

At this time, the woman's cell phone rang suddenly.

"Excuse me, I have a call." She got up and pressed the answer button, "Hello?"

She was walking towards the door, her navy blue one-step skirt showed a beautiful posture under her standard steps.

But just as her hand was on the doorknob, her footsteps stopped suddenly.

"What did you say?"

The woman asked loudly, which aroused dissatisfaction among the people who were still in the meeting, and cast impatient glances at her.After hearing a few words, the woman turned her head in panic, and said to the people in the room: "I'm sorry, something happened at my house, I have to leave first, I'm very sorry, I'll make up the leave tomorrow."

The oily middle-aged man who wanted to discuss it was disturbed by her, so he lost interest, so he said to everyone: "Okay, okay. Let's talk about it here today, and we will think about it in the product seminar on Thursday. .Let's end the meeting."

Everyone scattered like birds, picked up the things on the desk, and walked out of the room while talking.

There were only two people left in the room.

Zhang Deng took a sneak peek at Liu Bai, but could only see the four characters "make money at first sight", wondering if the other party was also looking at him.

Forget it, just treat him as looking at himself.

"That woman..." Liu Bai suddenly spoke.

"She got a call from an informant. Someone told her."

"Then, then why," Zhang Deng said in amazement, "Why didn't she tell others?"

Liu Bai snorted lightly.

"Not only will she not tell, but she will leave directly. However, if it is correct, the news should be reaching the top soon..."

"Because the various departments of the Shanghai headquarters will come to inspect tomorrow, the rest time will be adjusted from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-] pm today. Please leave your post immediately so that the cleaning company can clean up."

Liu Bai looked up at the loudspeaker: "Here we come."

Zhang Deng silently breathed a sigh of relief.

In this way, the number of casualties must be greatly reduced.

After another ten minutes or so, three people in explosion-proof suits opened the door, carefully held the instruments in their hands, gestured, and began to search around.

Finally, they found the bomb in the cabinet under the projector.

"Wow... this amount..." One of them saw the densely packed chemical explosives through the protective glasses, "Can this blow up the entire floor?!"

"Gong Ping, stop talking nonsense. You two look carefully, what type is this? I'm not as good at precision instruments as you two, so you can do it." The tall man, who looked like the captain, said to the two.

"Captain, I'm good at circuits..." said the young man named Gong Ping.

Another young man suddenly made a stop gesture, telling Gong Ping not to speak.

"There is remote operation. There may be surveillance. One of you goes down and asks someone to turn off the CCTV, and the other rushes to inform the team to bring explosion-proof materials. The more the better." The young man wrote in his little notebook Two lines, for two people to read.

"What about you? You come by yourself?" The captain also wrote.

The young man thought for a while, nodded, and wrote another sentence: "It's okay. I can do it myself. I will open the box to check first, and then try to disconnect the remote connection within 3 minutes. Don't worry, I don't want to die either."

So the two acquiesced, patted him on the shoulder, and walked out one after the other.

The young man stretched his muscles and bones, took out the tools, and began to carefully search for the dismantling place.He didn't look old, probably in his early 30s.

Standing by the side, Zhang Deng sweated for him, and said to himself, come on, don't stop, you will definitely succeed.

Liu Bai, who was standing beside him, took out his jade wat, compared it carefully, then took out the chain and stood up.Then he turned his head to glance at the nervous Liu Bai, and shook his head.

That's why he didn't want Zhang Deng to come.

This silly hat is always thinking about the good development and direction of things, and thinks that as long as he works hard, he can do it.This is a kind of foolishness. Although it is this kind of foolishness that has led to many wonderful successes in many cases, most people will only fail the moment before they succeed.

He couldn't bear to destroy the little sunny side left in Zhang Deng's heart. It would be too cruel to do it with his own hands.

But, Liu Bai.

It would be too cunning to use other people's hands to destroy him.
