Strangers
Chapter 61, Balder's Divine Chapter.
Why don't you just go to him directly? "
The first man spat: "Seeing that you have been Xun Shenzhi's dog so soon after entering Guixintang!"
"Being a dog for whom is not a dog?" Qi Xie paced leisurely, "I think you two are also men, why don't you learn from Bai Deqi and vote for Lord Xun, and you can make the best use of it. Why follow Lu Renda and give it to Minister Han?" What about the caretaker?"
"Don't talk to him! Let's talk about it!" hoarse voice yelled.
Immediately there was a bang bang gunshot.
Xie Yu was startled, and looked sideways——
Over there, a man holding a gun has fallen into the blood, and the other is pinched in the air by Qi Xie's neck, coughing in his throat, and struggling desperately.
"When you get there, give Lord Lu a message." Qi Xie said with a smile, "I'm pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, but he's a real person who doesn't show his face."
After all, the right finger went straight into the left rib!When it was pulled out again, the blood splashed several meters, and a few drops of bright red flew across the passage, and landed in front of Xie Yu's feet.
Xie Yu expected to see some unknown scenes, but he didn't expect it to be like this. When he returned to the ground and handed the sleeping boy to Assistant Qian, he hadn't recovered yet.
Hotel.
He took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
Kara, the door opens.
Qi Xie was standing opposite with the same smile on his face, but it was hard for Xie Yu to distinguish whether it was his usual smile or the murderous smile a few hours ago.
"Where's my five hundred?" Qi Xie said in a relaxed tone, as he walked in and wiped his hair.
He had obviously just taken a shower to wash the blood off his body.
"It will be transferred to your account tomorrow." Xie Yu walked in, pretending to be calm was easy, "How did you get here?"
"Secret." Qi Xie smiled, "Assistant Qian called just now, and the child has been taken away by Guixintang Medical Research Institute, and he will receive the best treatment."
"Why is he underground?" Xie Yu asked.
Qi Xie threw the towel and sat on the sofa: "The child's mother was originally a descendant of Jingchu craftsmen, and she kept an ancestral bamboo shoot and Tai Sui seed. She didn't know what function it had, and she just regarded it as a valuable orb. Father Ri was sick, so she took the seeds to the pawnshop, but the pawnshop clerk didn't know him, so he didn't accept it, but was targeted by the special information department. After a while, they went to the woman's house to lobby, saying that it was a national treasure and should be handed over. The woman had no choice but pretended to agree, and secretly handed over a fake bead and sewed the real seed into her son's padded coat. The people from the Special Information Department were so shrewd that they exposed her on the spot. The woman thought that she had lied to the country and would go to jail and be shot. Immediately panicked, she ran out of the house with her child in her arms and fell into the well. People fished up her body, but they couldn't find her younger son. The boy was wrapped in it. You know what happened later, the bamboo shoot Taisui grew slowly, branched out fibrous roots, stole time from other places, and fed it to the child, so that he could survive for decades and wait for someone to rescue him."
Xie Yu suppressed the confusion in his mind and switched back to a rational state: "So the three accidents were created by the Ministry of Special Information, in order to obstruct the project and prevent the truth from being revealed."
"That's right." Qi Xie chuckled, "I can only play with these little tricks, and I'm exhausted."
A week later, Shanghai.
Qi Xie received a letter from Mr. Min, thanking her for her full help this time, which enabled her to retire. Since then, she has washed her hands, no longer participates in any affairs of Guixintang, and plans to immigrate to Sweden with her husband and children.
But Xie Yu knew the hidden meaning in the letter: Master Lu died, and Mr. Min went abroad. This was not a personnel change in Guixintang, but Boss Xun was eradicating dissidents.
And does this bullet of mine still have room to maneuver after penetrating through the Secret Service?
Two knocks on the door interrupted her train of thought.
"Do you want to go to the medical research institute?" Qi Xie stood at the door of the room, "I want a follow-up visit, so I can take a look at the child."
Xie Yu sat upright from the chair: "Okay, I will change clothes."
Driving to Pudong, a white and brand new high-rise building has nine traditional characters written on it, Shanghai Taihe Medical Center.The elevator went straight to the eleventh floor, and Qi Xie led Xie Yu into a ward. As soon as the door opened, he heard crying. A young nurse was frantically comforting the boy.
"What's wrong?" Qi Xie smiled.
"Mr. Qi?" The nurse was at a loss, "I was feeding him just now, but he suddenly started crying. I don't know what happened."
"Really?" Qi Xie glanced at the lunch box, "Give him some food."
The nurse nodded and backed out.
Qi Xie sat on the edge of the hospital bed and looked at the boy: "Picky eating is not a good habit."
The boy washed the yellow mud and changed his clothes. He was no different from an ordinary child, except that his eyes were still guarded, and a row of deciduous teeth bared out at the slightest sign of trouble.
Qi Xie pressed his head, saw the boy gradually retracting his teeth, and said slowly: "But to you, bamboo shoots may not be food, but to you, they should be like mothers."
Hearing this, the boy was taken aback for a moment, and burst into tears again.
☆、Building 19
Xie Yu thinks he doesn't have any fixed concept of good and evil, and shopping malls are like battlefields, so any means are understandable.
But he has a bottom line: all actions must not override life.
He originally thought that Boss Qi was also an expert with no bloodshed, but he didn't know that he killed people like taking a walk. The kind of ease and ease can only be seen in children who lack life education. ——I just burned a group of ants to death with boiling water, clapped my hands and turned around, and went to play other games.
There is one more thing that Xie Yu realized later.
That night in Shennongjia, he noticed that someone was following him. Now that he thinks it must be Bai Deqi, this guy must have been hiding in the dark and witnessed the process of Lord Lu being killed, so he decided to change his employer and surrender to Lord Xun.
And all of this is under Qi Xie's control, even the discussion behind Lu Bai's back has been heard.
Although Xie Yu didn't want to admit it, Boss Qi like this really made him intimidated, and he even began to wonder if he should stand on the same side with him.
His various thoughts have not yet been sorted out. He checks his mailbox routinely and accidentally finds an email.
"To Xijing: Hello, I am Zhu Hai's wife. I have set up a timed delivery of this email. If you do not cancel it when the time comes, it will be sent to your mailbox. If you do not cancel it in time, it just means that I am dead. .”
Xie Yu's eyes lit up, he sat upright and read on.
"Zhu Hai didn't tell me much about "The Mistletoe Project". His first draft was completed seven years ago, and I was not married to him at that time, so I don't know the specifics. Some inside stories of the Huazhong Branch of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, I hope this clue can help you. In addition, thank you for your concern for Zhu Hai. Although you said that you are only investigating for writing materials, I believe you are a person with a sense of justice. That day I said some inappropriate things in the car, I sincerely apologize, I hope you can tell Zhu Hai the truth, thank you."
Xie Yu was only stunned for a few seconds, and immediately booked a train ticket for the return trip.
Qi Xie, who was reading a book in the living room, saw him carrying his luggage: "What? Are you leaving now?"
"I've been bothering you for too long, I'm going back." Xie Yu avoided the reason.
Qi Xie smiled and exposed him: "I didn't say hello in advance, it seems that something unexpected happened."
Xie Yu hesitated a little, but said: "I have received a new clue, let's check it out."
"Do you want me to walk with you?" Qi Xie asked.
"No!" Before Xie Yu could speak, Xiaotao suddenly became angry, "It took so long for you to get rid of the fever, so you can't be tired anymore!"
"Do you have a fever?" Xie Yu asked.
"It's not a fever, it's a temporary temperature disorder." Qi Xie corrected.
Xiaotao was furious: "Anyway, Doctor Tie has already said that you have been overworked recently, so you need to rest well! Master Xun is also very serious. He arranges so many things with you all at once, even if you are still sick!"
Qi Xie snorted softly: "This broken finger still has the face to say, if he hadn't taken the wrong medicine, how could such a thing have happened. I didn't say anything this time, otherwise he would be fined for half a year's salary."
Xie Yu heard the cause and effect: "It seems that your attending doctor is very unreliable."
"It's not only unreliable." Qi Xie was very upset, "Forget it, I won't go this time. Xiao Tao, call Master Zhang and ask him to take Xie Yu to the station, and then call Assistant Qian to fix the problem. Refer to Tie for prescribing the wrong medicine and publicize it."
After returning to Tianhui Hotel 0813 after a long absence, Xie Yu turned on the air conditioner, poured himself a glass of ice water, and stood by the window looking at the street view.
This comfort lasted only a moment, when the door knocked.
"What do you want from me?" Wei Yuanyang stood at the air conditioner outlet when he entered the door, "Oh, it's noon, I'm so hot!"
"How did you find out about the zombies?" Xie Yu asked immediately.
Wei Yuanyang was startled: "How do you know there are zombies?"
Xie Yu handed over a bottle of mineral water: "Boss Qi told me that I have been living with him this month."
"Didn't you go to Shanghai to collect materials?" Wei Yuanyang thought for a while, "That's right, you can save rent by staying with him."
"I can still afford the rent, but the hotel I live in exploded." Starting with this, Xie Yu recounted the experience of this month with emphasis.
During this period, Wei Yuanyang's jaw almost fell to the ground several times.
"I'm going to the Chinese Academy of Sciences to investigate when I come back this time." Xie Yu said at the end.
"I thought that place was wrong for a long time!" Wei Yuanyang patted his thigh, and finally found a bosom friend, "I went to Science Island recently when I had nothing to do, and found that Building 19 had the biggest problem. There were often inexplicable cars parked at the door. A few bodyguards surrounded a person and went in. The security guards inside were also extremely strict, and they had to swipe their cards to get in and out. The earth is Fa-rectified!"
Xie Yu nodded: "If you guessed right, the research institute of the Ministry of Special Information is located there."
"That must be!" Wei Yuan threatened, "I stole the garbage bag they dragged out, found some shredded letter paper, and after half a night of hard work, I finally managed to get it to look up, and the three letters TXB were printed on it. There is also a cabbage LOGO that looks similar to Guixintang, or how to say it is a family."
Xie Yu listened: "You are more suitable to be a criminal police officer."
"Pull it down." Wei Yuanyang had no regrets, "I have just been promoted to the deputy captain of the Traffic Patrol Brigade, and no one should expect me to leave the position I love."
"Really, congratulations on your promotion." Xie Yu said.
"Let's not talk about this first." Wei Yuanyang waved his hand, "We have to think of a way quickly to see how we can break into the enemy's interior."
Xie Yu took out his mobile phone: "It seems that we need to consult a professional."
"What major?" Wei Yuanyang asked.
"Private investigation." Xie Yu said.
Not long after, a man came.
Fat, bald, orange T-shirt, big underpants, and a dirty computer bag, when he entered the door, he pushed Wei Yuanyang from the air conditioner aside, shaking his clothes while wiping sweat: "Oh my god, it's noon! It's killing me!"
"Xiao Zhao, we are going to enter Building 19 of Science Island tonight, and I will leave the preliminary work to you," Xie Yu said.
"Tonight?" Xiao Zhao was taken aback.
"Is time too tight?" Wei Yuanyang asked.
"It's okay." Xiao Zhao hehe, "The security system was designed by my classmate. It can be done in minutes, but you have to pay more."
"Money is not a problem." Xie Yu was very forthright, "I also want the floor plan of each floor, including the functional labels of all rooms."
Familiarly, he took out a can of Coca-Cola from the refrigerator, and Xiao Zhao took a moment to wipe his mouth: "The floor plan is not necessarily the case. The architectural design of this kind of national-level unit is kept secret, let alone the blueprint. They can’t even be sent by express delivery, they have to be sealed and flown to the Ministry of Construction for review.”
"I want a floor plan, you can figure out how to do it yourself." Xie Yu said without discussion.
"All right, let me take a look first." Xiao Zhao had no choice but to dig out the computer and connect to the Internet.
Tapped a line of words, and entered.
"This design unit is X University of Technology." Xiao Zhao said to himself on the screen, "Chief architect, Xu Weidong. This Xu Weidong... Oh, master tutor, that's interesting."
"How do you say it?" Xie Yu asked, Wei Yuanyang also moved his head closer.
"You don't understand this?" Xiao Zhao threw the empty jar on the ground, "Does the tutor draw his own pictures? They all ask his students to draw them. If the student draws a picture, he must make a copy in his computer. Don’t you have it?” He searched and muttered, “This project was started in 2005, and the master’s degree he brought in 05 included... this, this, and these, and then check on the real-name social networking site... account number Here. Well, this guy happens to be online, wait for me to send him a gray dove: "Hi Gong Gong! This is our intention map, please take a look!" Okay, he accepted it and ordered it. Yo, The desktop is still a Lamborghini, I’m here to find out if there are any blueprints in his hard drive. Disk D, no, disk E, projects, folders from 05, public buildings... Hey, yes, the office building of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the construction drawings are cut vertically Final Edition 4."
Seeing the download progress bar finish quickly, Wei Yuanyang was already stunned.
"Minutes." Xiao Zhao raised his eyebrows proudly.
"Hurry up and do the security thing." With a cold face, Xie Yu copied it into his computer and connected it to the printer.
The white A3 paper was swept away by the machine, and spit out bit by bit. As the drawings were gradually printed out, Xie Yu suddenly raised his eyes.
"What's going on here." He picked up the section plan, "There are three floors in the basement, but it's more than 30 meters deep underground."
Wei Yuanyang immediately turned to the plane: "The first and second basement floors are garages and equipment rooms, and the third floor is a storage room? What can be stored underground?"
"It's not Lamborghini anyway." Xie Yu tapped the paper, "It seems that our goal is it."
Half an hour later, Xiao Zhao Huanghuang made a fake ID card. Xie Yu opened the safe and ordered a stack of cash. He paid the money and delivered the goods. The two agreed to meet at Science Island at twelve o'clock in the evening.
It's night, Building 19.
Walking along the outer wall to the fire control room, the three of them squatted in the corner, Xiao Zhao connected the computer to the monitoring system of the building, touched his chin and waited for the successful cut-in.
"It's done." Xiao Zhao nodded. "Their system checks itself every 10 minutes. You must come out within this time. I will flash first, bye."
"I know." Xie Yu checked his watch, and the countdown began.
Xiao Zhao from behind waved his hand: "If you get caught, don't confess me."
Xie Yu snorted softly: "Did I say that my partner is a fat man?"
The windows on the first floor have anti-theft nets, Wei Yuanyang stacked a hand ladder, and Xie Yu used his strength to climb into the windows on the second floor.
The drawings showed that only the stairs in the northwest corner lead directly to the third basement floor. The two entered the corridor, quickly found it according to memory, took out their ID cards and swiped them, and the door of the stairwell opened in response.
Xie Yu ran down the stairs with the lightest steps, and glanced at his watch at the same time, there were 8 minutes and 40 seconds left.
"Where's the road?" Wei Yuanyang in front stopped suddenly.
This staircase was supposed to lead underground, but there were no steps below the first floor.
"There must be a mechanism!" Wei Yuanyang knocked along the wall, and finally heard an empty drum.
He pressed against the wall, and when it bounced off it turned out to be a fire hydrant.
"Look here." Xie Yu pointed to the emergency exit sign in the corner, "The wall next to it is covered with dust, only it is clean."
Wei Yuanyang patted and pressed, but there was no response.
Xie Yu took out his ID card and stuck the green EXIT on it.
The lights flashed twice.
The ground in front gradually moved away, and a staircase leading to the ground was revealed. The two looked at each other and walked down with their flashlights on.
"Why is it so cloudy here?" Wei Yuanyang shuddered, "Could it be the morgue underneath."
"It's not cloudy, it's cold." Xie Yu kept walking, "There are 7 minutes and 36 seconds left, we'd better stay 4 minutes to go out."
Going to the end, a huge door appeared in front of you.
Thick metal, round handle, with the LOGO and a line of words printed in the middle of the special letter department: dedicated to the Selaginella project.
☆, Selaginella
Wei Yuanyang didn't respond to these words, he just looked at the password keyboard on the door: "What's the matter?"
"There is a very primitive method." Xie Yu took out a small paper bag from his pocket and spread it out. Inside was some gray powder. He flattened it and approached it carefully, blowing it on the keyboard carefully, and then shone the flashlight from the side .
Fingerprints appeared on several keys.
“0、2、3、7。”谢宇念,“密码可能是4位,0和2上的指纹比较浅,3和7比较深。”
"3702? 7302? 3720? 7320? Never mind, try one by one." Wei Yuanyang reached out and pressed.
"Wait!" Xie Yu blocked him.
Wei Yuanyang had already pressed 3, and immediately froze with a beep.
"Wrong input may automatically call the police." Xie Yu reminded.
"Ah?!" Wei Yuanyang didn't dare to move.
Xie Yu sighed: "You lose first, there should be more than one chance."
"Then which one do I lose..." Wei Yuanyang asked.
"Whatever." Xie Yu said.
"3702!" Wei Yuanyang made up his mind.
Error.
"Damn it!" Wei Yuanyang cursed.
"That's right, at least the alarm didn't go off." Xie Yu quickly pressed 7320 without wasting any time.
Error, still no sound.
"It seems that there are three chances, and there is a last one." Xie Yu said.
"There are two left." Wei Yuanyang swallowed, "3720 and 7302."
Xie Yu stretched out his finger: "Wish me good luck."
Drop drop drop drop.
The two held their breath...
Click, the lock is open.
Wei Yuanyang turned his handle and pushed open the heavy door. A cloud of white mist rushed out amidst the hum of the pulleys moving.
The air-conditioning gradually dissipated, and the aperture of the flashlight was opened to the maximum.
"There's someone inside!" Wei Yuanyang whispered.
"Don't get excited, that's yourself." Xie Yu was extremely calm.
"What is this? Mirror? Glass?" Wei Yuanyang walked over, facing a tall reflective body.
Touch again, ice.
Eight huge ice bricks were stacked in the middle of the room, each the size of a shipping container.
"What on earth is this for!" Wei Yuanyang leaned closer and looked into the ice.
The tip of his nose was facing a ferocious face!
"I/fuck!" Wei Yuanyang jumped two meters away in an instant.
Looking up again, people were frozen in the ice, as if a crowded swimming pool froze instantly, freezing all struggling postures and frightened expressions.
"This—!" Wei Yuanyang was stunned.
"Mistletoe, soul preservation, cell freezing, human memory capsule." Xie Yu raised the miniature camera and pressed the shutter, "The facts are solid, and the criminal evidence is conclusive."
"Not good!" Wei Yuanyang looked at the time, "Hurry up! There are only 3 minutes left!"
Xie Yu took a few more recent photos, picked up the camera, and just stepped out of the metal door when he heard the alarm bell!
"What's going on!" Wei Yuanyang was shocked.
"No matter, run first!" Xie Yu rushed up the stairs in one breath, and the ground that had just been removed gradually closed!He jumped out with a stride, and the chair dragged across the corner got stuck, and Wei Yuanyang jumped out at the last moment.
"Who is it!" There was a shout in the corridor, and three security guards rushed in.
Xie Yu turned around, knocked one down with a knee bump, and Wei Yuanyang knocked the other two down with a few punches. Red sirens sounded all over the building, and more and more footsteps approached. Floor, jumped out from the window that came in.
Before they could catch their breath, there was a whooping sound, and the ash on the wall beside them burst open——
Wei Yuanyang looked into the distance, and saw that several black uniforms had surrounded him, holding nothing but standard Glock pistols in their hands.
"Go!" Xie Yu pushed him hard.
There were a few sounds, and flowers bloomed around the feet, and the two of them rushed past the corner of the building without thinking too much!Seeing the water bank in front of them, they finally felt a glimmer of life. Just two steps away, they were suddenly grabbed by the arms of the ambushing people and dragged into the bushes with a crash!
Xie Yu was about to fight back with all his strength.
"Don't move!" The man grabbed his wrist tightly.
With a flash of sight, he instantly recognized who the other party was.
"Old Qi!" Wei Yuanyang was overjoyed.
"Quiet!" Qi Xie scolded in a low voice, and then waved his sword finger.
There were two splashes in the distance, as if something heavy had fallen into the water.
"Over there!" The black uniform heard the movement, changed direction and chased towards the shore. Although no one was seen, they still fired a few shots into the water.
A few minutes passed, and the pursuers finally dispersed.
Taking a long breath, Wei Yuanyang turned to look at Qi Xie: "Why are you here?"
Qi Xie asked back: "Why can't I be here?"
"Aren't you in Shanghai?"
"Can't I come back?"
"Oh." Wei Yuanyang was speechless.
Xie Yu whispered: "Now is not the time to reminisce about the past, the question is how we get out of the island."
Qi Xie kicked the three sets of scuba in the grass, and asked with a smile, "Can you swim?"
Xie Yu replied disdainfully: "A necessary skill for human beings."
There is no wave in the night lake, like a dark glass curtain wall, without any warning, a corner is cracked.
The three of them broke through the water and got ashore. Guixintang's car was already waiting by the side of the road and pulled them straight to Lanjingxuan.
"I haven't been back for a long time, I still miss it." Qi Xie turned on the light and looked around the room.
"What do you miss about this? Miss the feeling of being under house arrest?" Wei Yuanyang took off his clothes and wrung water on the flowerpot.
"You have to see who he is under house arrest with." Xie Yu took out a miniature camera to check, and picked up two plastic bags to wrap it before going into the water. Fortunately, it can still be opened now.
"You guys are talking, I'm going to take a shower." Qi Xie left.
"To the point." Xie Yu did not forget to evaluate himself.
"By the way." Wei Yuanyang hung up his clothes, pulled out the chair and sat down, "What the hell is that ice cube, it's so creepy!"
"The Selaginella Project, a stupid experiment." Xie Yu flipped through the photos, "Some scientists thought that as long as the living people were frozen, they could be revived when they were thawed."
"Huh?" Wei Yuanyang touched his chin, "It seems that foreign countries have this technology? Although the method of unfreezing has not been determined, some volunteers have already participated. I hope that when the technology develops to a certain level, there will be a way to revive them. .”
"Because their refrigerant is liquid nitrogen, not tap water." Xie Yu mocked.
Wei Yuanyang came over to look at the photos he took: "These people's clothes look like those of the last century."
Xie Yu recalled: "Fengtie set up the mistletoe plan in 2959, and I guess this may be around 1959."
"Wait." Wei Yuanyang took the camera and flipped forward, "Look, these two ice bricks are different from the others, the other people inside are struggling desperately, but these two are standing very neatly with their eyes closed. Looks like he's sleeping."
Xie Yu zoomed in a bit, and the hair of those people was hanging to the back of their heads: "Maybe these people were lying down at first, and then stood up with ice after freezing."
"And ah." Wei Yuanyang took a closer look again, "There are other men, women, children, and everything in the ice. These two are middle-aged and elderly people, and they are still well-dressed, like a group of cultural people."
"Perhaps it can be inferred that these are two different types of freezers. One is random and forced, so it is very chaotic; the other is screened and voluntary, so it is very unified."
The bathroom door opened during the conversation.
"The ones you didn't take away last time, make do with them." Qi Xie threw a few clean clothes over.
Xie Yu and Wei Yuanyang took turns to take a shower, and the people from Guixintang brought a midnight snack. After being full, it was almost three o'clock in the middle of the night, the excitement of the adventure completely subsided, and all the exhaustion hit.
In the weary silence, the bell suddenly rang——
Xie Yu sat startled and opened his eyes, only to find that it was already dawn and he had fallen asleep on the sofa.
After touching the phone, he cleared his throat and returned to normal: "Hello."
"Xie Yu." An unfriendly male voice.
"What." He frowned.
"Your sister is in my hands." The man said suddenly, "You must report to the ship pier before twelve o'clock noon, alone, with those photos, and you are not allowed to call the police, otherwise you will know the consequences."
Xie Yu was taken aback, but his tone was still very restrained: "How can I trust you."
"Brother!" A familiar voice on the opposite side was still unreasonable and impatient, "What before twelve o'clock! Come here within half an hour, or you will die!"
"Hello!" Xie Yu shouted.
The other party has hung up.
"What's wrong?" Wei Yuanyang got up yawning after being woken up.
Xie Yu said seven words: "My sister was kidnapped."
"Ah?!" Wei Yuanyang woke up instantly, "Your sister was, kidnapped?"
"The other party must be someone from the Special Information Department!" Xie Yu was rummaging through the camera in the living room, "He asked me to take the photo to the ship pier. The time limit is four hours, and I am not allowed to call the police, otherwise the ticket will be torn up."
Wei Yuanyang gritted his teeth: "These bastards! They are so shameless!"
"Did you see my camera!" Xie Yu lifted the sofa cushions, no.
"Here." A voice came from behind.
Qi Xie came out of the bedroom, shaking his hand, Xie Yu rushed over with a few steps, but his hand was in vain.
"Calm down." Qi Xie said calmly, "If you do what he said, you will die this trip. They will kill you first, destroy the photos, and then kill your sister."
"I'm calm." Xie Yu stared at him, "Give me the camera."
"No." Qi Xie said.
Xie Yu had no choice but to grab it hard, and in a hurry, he used real kung fu.Qi Xie was not polite, and threw the camera to Wei Yuanyang, and twisted it with his backhand, pressing Xie Yu against the wall.
"First of all, your sister is not at the ferry terminal at all, but at the ferry warehouse." Qi Xie spoke steadily and clearly, "They sent you to take a detour just to get rid of the reinforcements and wear down your will. Secondly, she is very safe now , was not violated or had his little finger chopped off. Third, the other party was not one person but twenty, and they were ambushed in four groups, and everyone was holding a gun. Once you entered the designated position, three snipers would aim at your head at the same time. , if you don't want Xie Xin to watch your brains fly out, then calm me down immediately."
Wei Yuanyang's brain froze: "Old Qi, how do you know such details! Could it be that you are with them!"
Qi Xie let go of Xie Yu: "Nod and shake your head to tell me."
Wei Yuanyang broke out in a cold sweat: "You are a little too big."
"Okay, there is still 1 hour and 50 minutes left." Qi Xie looked at the clock, "The opponent has too many guns, and it is difficult for us to ensure the safety of the hostages by ourselves. Now we have two options, one is to deal with it in the open, call the police and get support , The second is to deal with it secretly, and transfer people from Guixintang."
Xie Yu's rationality resumed: "You can't call the police. The Special Information Department may have contact with the police."
"Then I'll find an important person from Guixintang." Qi Xie dialed the phone and asked the other party to call a team of "cleaners" quickly, asking for elites and guns.
"Will they give it to someone?" Xie Yu suddenly realized that this was tantamount to tearing Guixintang and the Special Information Department apart, putting the conflict on the table and officially starting a war.
"Master Xun is not such a patient person." Qi Xie smiled playfully, "It's time to shoot the bullet."
☆, victory or defeat
Squeezed behind the new buildings, there is an empty ferry warehouse. It has been closed down for many years and has become a waste dump. There is a big demolished word written in white paint on the outer wall, and the rolling gate is also broken. Horns piercing into the scorching sun outside.
Xie Xin was blindfolded and sat in a chair with his hands and feet cuffed and his mouth sealed with tape.
She could only smell the gray smell, hear the cicadas singing in the distance, and count four pairs of feet pacing vigilantly in front of her, and some noises came from the intercom from time to time.
Crack, a leather shoe stepped on the broken glass.
Stopped.
Subconsciously raised her head, she seemed to be able to see a figure through the blindfold, cutting through the scorching white light.
Steady, straight, firm.
"Stop," said a voice.
The footsteps on the opposite side stopped.
"Where are the pictures?" the voice asked.
"Here." It was her brother.
"Is there a backup?"
"No."
"Throw it over." The voice commanded.
"Let people go first." Xie Yu said.
Xie Xin felt something hit the back of his head, it should be a gun.
"Stop!" Xie Yu shouted.
A moment later, something was placed on the ground in the distance, and it slid to her feet.The tactile sensation in the back of the head is gone, and the gunman is probably going to pick that thing up.
Just at this moment, just listen to whoo!The weight fell down, and then there were a few bang bang gunshots, and everything was quiet.
It's not like the grand and intense gun battle scene in the movie at all.Xie Xin was thinking like this, she didn't know what happened around her, she only knew that the matter might be over.
"Don't worry, it's alright."
Finally, Xie Yu's voice rang in his ears, with a gentleness that was not usually there.The handcuffs and shackles were released, and she pulled off the blindfold with a snap. Just as she adjusted to the light, she saw the corpse under her feet at first sight.
A hole was opened in the side of the brain, and brain pulp and bone fragments were sprayed all over the floor.
"Afraid?" Xie Yu asked.
"When did I ever get scared!" The high-heeled shoe kicked the corpse hard, "If you dare to tie me up, you will die!"
Xie Yu smiled, and then picked up the camera in the corpse's hand.
Xie Xin glanced at him up and down to make sure that Xie Yu was not injured, and then looked around. There were many corpses in black uniforms lying in front of him and on the mezzanine upstairs, and some people were carrying them out of the warehouse, throwing them away Entering a van, it seems that sanitation workers are throwing garbage every day.
"Who are these people?" Xie Xin frowned.
"The ones who died are bad people, and the others are good people." Xie Yu explained casually.
Xie Xin didn't bother to investigate, and was about to walk out the door when he staggered suddenly.
Xie Yu supported her: "What's wrong?"
Xie Xin rubbed his ankle: "I twisted it before."
Xie Yu picked her up without saying a word, took two steps and asked, "Have you become heavier?"
Xie Xin was angry: "Of course it has become heavier. The last time you carried me was in sixth grade."
"Maybe you didn't hear it." Xie Yu said in a serious tone, "I'm calling you fat in a different way."
Xie Xin slapped him hard on the back.
Xie Yu was expressionless: "Please don't attack your means of transportation."
Xie Xin snorted and smiled: "When those people asked me to call you over, I told them that my brother is super annoying, Leo type O blood, he wants to save face, has a bad temper, and is narrow-minded, you use this If you want to threaten him in this way, you have to be mentally prepared to be killed by him."
Xie Yu stepped out of the door: "It's useless to flatter, I never take this kind of thing."
Nothing seems to happen.
Qi Xie opened the newspaper in Lanjingxuan, and the news on the page was still from his parents. Wei Yuanyang returned to the brigade, but he didn't hear any comments from his colleagues.A confrontation in which 20 people died was completely wiped out, and no news was leaked.
Only the person involved knows that there are undercurrents flowing under the calm surface, and the ripples are like knives.
Xie Yu has been sitting in front of the computer for seven hours.
He knows very well what kind of echo the words he is typing will have...
"The mistletoe project began in 2959. In order to preserve the country's cultural awareness, the government of country A developed human body freezing technology. The authorities selected human beings with specific thoughts and let them die in suspended animation. They will wait for the impact of the end of the world to pass and the new civilization to start. Resurrection, hoping to continue the group consciousness of country A. However, due to immature technology, in 2960, the first batch of 200 volunteers all died, and the plan was forced to stop. In 2975, the authorities of country A tried to eliminate dissidents. It is proposed again that in the name of science, massacres were carried out. About 600 people were forced to participate in freezing and died in the laboratory. In fact, the mistletoe project was not invented by Feng Tie. It was originally called the Selaginella project, which actually happened in Shanghai In the middle and late century. The Selaginella Project Laboratory was established in the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing in 1959, and then moved to the Central China Branch..."
Textual research, on-site photos, with the title "The Textual Research and Prototype of <The Mistletoe Project>", starting from the reader circle in the western region, it swept the entire Internet!
The unfinished ending of "The Mistletoe Project", the sudden death like iron wind, all the bizarre mysteries have been solved.The number of posts on major forums has increased dramatically, and netizens have held mourning activities to pay homage to a writer who has never met and fought for the truth.On the other hand, the word "Xijing" firmly occupied the search list, and the publishing house urgently reprinted the "Three Cities" series, and the new serialization hit a new high in sales.
however.
In this storm, the Western Territory, which was supposed to be at the center, retreated to the edge.
No statement, no emotion, no participation in mourning activities, even the article "Textual Research and Prototype" is an objective statement of facts without any emotional exaggeration.
Only the opening sentence states the position:
"With this, I would like to express my gratitude to the writing style
The first man spat: "Seeing that you have been Xun Shenzhi's dog so soon after entering Guixintang!"
"Being a dog for whom is not a dog?" Qi Xie paced leisurely, "I think you two are also men, why don't you learn from Bai Deqi and vote for Lord Xun, and you can make the best use of it. Why follow Lu Renda and give it to Minister Han?" What about the caretaker?"
"Don't talk to him! Let's talk about it!" hoarse voice yelled.
Immediately there was a bang bang gunshot.
Xie Yu was startled, and looked sideways——
Over there, a man holding a gun has fallen into the blood, and the other is pinched in the air by Qi Xie's neck, coughing in his throat, and struggling desperately.
"When you get there, give Lord Lu a message." Qi Xie said with a smile, "I'm pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, but he's a real person who doesn't show his face."
After all, the right finger went straight into the left rib!When it was pulled out again, the blood splashed several meters, and a few drops of bright red flew across the passage, and landed in front of Xie Yu's feet.
Xie Yu expected to see some unknown scenes, but he didn't expect it to be like this. When he returned to the ground and handed the sleeping boy to Assistant Qian, he hadn't recovered yet.
Hotel.
He took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
Kara, the door opens.
Qi Xie was standing opposite with the same smile on his face, but it was hard for Xie Yu to distinguish whether it was his usual smile or the murderous smile a few hours ago.
"Where's my five hundred?" Qi Xie said in a relaxed tone, as he walked in and wiped his hair.
He had obviously just taken a shower to wash the blood off his body.
"It will be transferred to your account tomorrow." Xie Yu walked in, pretending to be calm was easy, "How did you get here?"
"Secret." Qi Xie smiled, "Assistant Qian called just now, and the child has been taken away by Guixintang Medical Research Institute, and he will receive the best treatment."
"Why is he underground?" Xie Yu asked.
Qi Xie threw the towel and sat on the sofa: "The child's mother was originally a descendant of Jingchu craftsmen, and she kept an ancestral bamboo shoot and Tai Sui seed. She didn't know what function it had, and she just regarded it as a valuable orb. Father Ri was sick, so she took the seeds to the pawnshop, but the pawnshop clerk didn't know him, so he didn't accept it, but was targeted by the special information department. After a while, they went to the woman's house to lobby, saying that it was a national treasure and should be handed over. The woman had no choice but pretended to agree, and secretly handed over a fake bead and sewed the real seed into her son's padded coat. The people from the Special Information Department were so shrewd that they exposed her on the spot. The woman thought that she had lied to the country and would go to jail and be shot. Immediately panicked, she ran out of the house with her child in her arms and fell into the well. People fished up her body, but they couldn't find her younger son. The boy was wrapped in it. You know what happened later, the bamboo shoot Taisui grew slowly, branched out fibrous roots, stole time from other places, and fed it to the child, so that he could survive for decades and wait for someone to rescue him."
Xie Yu suppressed the confusion in his mind and switched back to a rational state: "So the three accidents were created by the Ministry of Special Information, in order to obstruct the project and prevent the truth from being revealed."
"That's right." Qi Xie chuckled, "I can only play with these little tricks, and I'm exhausted."
A week later, Shanghai.
Qi Xie received a letter from Mr. Min, thanking her for her full help this time, which enabled her to retire. Since then, she has washed her hands, no longer participates in any affairs of Guixintang, and plans to immigrate to Sweden with her husband and children.
But Xie Yu knew the hidden meaning in the letter: Master Lu died, and Mr. Min went abroad. This was not a personnel change in Guixintang, but Boss Xun was eradicating dissidents.
And does this bullet of mine still have room to maneuver after penetrating through the Secret Service?
Two knocks on the door interrupted her train of thought.
"Do you want to go to the medical research institute?" Qi Xie stood at the door of the room, "I want a follow-up visit, so I can take a look at the child."
Xie Yu sat upright from the chair: "Okay, I will change clothes."
Driving to Pudong, a white and brand new high-rise building has nine traditional characters written on it, Shanghai Taihe Medical Center.The elevator went straight to the eleventh floor, and Qi Xie led Xie Yu into a ward. As soon as the door opened, he heard crying. A young nurse was frantically comforting the boy.
"What's wrong?" Qi Xie smiled.
"Mr. Qi?" The nurse was at a loss, "I was feeding him just now, but he suddenly started crying. I don't know what happened."
"Really?" Qi Xie glanced at the lunch box, "Give him some food."
The nurse nodded and backed out.
Qi Xie sat on the edge of the hospital bed and looked at the boy: "Picky eating is not a good habit."
The boy washed the yellow mud and changed his clothes. He was no different from an ordinary child, except that his eyes were still guarded, and a row of deciduous teeth bared out at the slightest sign of trouble.
Qi Xie pressed his head, saw the boy gradually retracting his teeth, and said slowly: "But to you, bamboo shoots may not be food, but to you, they should be like mothers."
Hearing this, the boy was taken aback for a moment, and burst into tears again.
☆、Building 19
Xie Yu thinks he doesn't have any fixed concept of good and evil, and shopping malls are like battlefields, so any means are understandable.
But he has a bottom line: all actions must not override life.
He originally thought that Boss Qi was also an expert with no bloodshed, but he didn't know that he killed people like taking a walk. The kind of ease and ease can only be seen in children who lack life education. ——I just burned a group of ants to death with boiling water, clapped my hands and turned around, and went to play other games.
There is one more thing that Xie Yu realized later.
That night in Shennongjia, he noticed that someone was following him. Now that he thinks it must be Bai Deqi, this guy must have been hiding in the dark and witnessed the process of Lord Lu being killed, so he decided to change his employer and surrender to Lord Xun.
And all of this is under Qi Xie's control, even the discussion behind Lu Bai's back has been heard.
Although Xie Yu didn't want to admit it, Boss Qi like this really made him intimidated, and he even began to wonder if he should stand on the same side with him.
His various thoughts have not yet been sorted out. He checks his mailbox routinely and accidentally finds an email.
"To Xijing: Hello, I am Zhu Hai's wife. I have set up a timed delivery of this email. If you do not cancel it when the time comes, it will be sent to your mailbox. If you do not cancel it in time, it just means that I am dead. .”
Xie Yu's eyes lit up, he sat upright and read on.
"Zhu Hai didn't tell me much about "The Mistletoe Project". His first draft was completed seven years ago, and I was not married to him at that time, so I don't know the specifics. Some inside stories of the Huazhong Branch of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, I hope this clue can help you. In addition, thank you for your concern for Zhu Hai. Although you said that you are only investigating for writing materials, I believe you are a person with a sense of justice. That day I said some inappropriate things in the car, I sincerely apologize, I hope you can tell Zhu Hai the truth, thank you."
Xie Yu was only stunned for a few seconds, and immediately booked a train ticket for the return trip.
Qi Xie, who was reading a book in the living room, saw him carrying his luggage: "What? Are you leaving now?"
"I've been bothering you for too long, I'm going back." Xie Yu avoided the reason.
Qi Xie smiled and exposed him: "I didn't say hello in advance, it seems that something unexpected happened."
Xie Yu hesitated a little, but said: "I have received a new clue, let's check it out."
"Do you want me to walk with you?" Qi Xie asked.
"No!" Before Xie Yu could speak, Xiaotao suddenly became angry, "It took so long for you to get rid of the fever, so you can't be tired anymore!"
"Do you have a fever?" Xie Yu asked.
"It's not a fever, it's a temporary temperature disorder." Qi Xie corrected.
Xiaotao was furious: "Anyway, Doctor Tie has already said that you have been overworked recently, so you need to rest well! Master Xun is also very serious. He arranges so many things with you all at once, even if you are still sick!"
Qi Xie snorted softly: "This broken finger still has the face to say, if he hadn't taken the wrong medicine, how could such a thing have happened. I didn't say anything this time, otherwise he would be fined for half a year's salary."
Xie Yu heard the cause and effect: "It seems that your attending doctor is very unreliable."
"It's not only unreliable." Qi Xie was very upset, "Forget it, I won't go this time. Xiao Tao, call Master Zhang and ask him to take Xie Yu to the station, and then call Assistant Qian to fix the problem. Refer to Tie for prescribing the wrong medicine and publicize it."
After returning to Tianhui Hotel 0813 after a long absence, Xie Yu turned on the air conditioner, poured himself a glass of ice water, and stood by the window looking at the street view.
This comfort lasted only a moment, when the door knocked.
"What do you want from me?" Wei Yuanyang stood at the air conditioner outlet when he entered the door, "Oh, it's noon, I'm so hot!"
"How did you find out about the zombies?" Xie Yu asked immediately.
Wei Yuanyang was startled: "How do you know there are zombies?"
Xie Yu handed over a bottle of mineral water: "Boss Qi told me that I have been living with him this month."
"Didn't you go to Shanghai to collect materials?" Wei Yuanyang thought for a while, "That's right, you can save rent by staying with him."
"I can still afford the rent, but the hotel I live in exploded." Starting with this, Xie Yu recounted the experience of this month with emphasis.
During this period, Wei Yuanyang's jaw almost fell to the ground several times.
"I'm going to the Chinese Academy of Sciences to investigate when I come back this time." Xie Yu said at the end.
"I thought that place was wrong for a long time!" Wei Yuanyang patted his thigh, and finally found a bosom friend, "I went to Science Island recently when I had nothing to do, and found that Building 19 had the biggest problem. There were often inexplicable cars parked at the door. A few bodyguards surrounded a person and went in. The security guards inside were also extremely strict, and they had to swipe their cards to get in and out. The earth is Fa-rectified!"
Xie Yu nodded: "If you guessed right, the research institute of the Ministry of Special Information is located there."
"That must be!" Wei Yuan threatened, "I stole the garbage bag they dragged out, found some shredded letter paper, and after half a night of hard work, I finally managed to get it to look up, and the three letters TXB were printed on it. There is also a cabbage LOGO that looks similar to Guixintang, or how to say it is a family."
Xie Yu listened: "You are more suitable to be a criminal police officer."
"Pull it down." Wei Yuanyang had no regrets, "I have just been promoted to the deputy captain of the Traffic Patrol Brigade, and no one should expect me to leave the position I love."
"Really, congratulations on your promotion." Xie Yu said.
"Let's not talk about this first." Wei Yuanyang waved his hand, "We have to think of a way quickly to see how we can break into the enemy's interior."
Xie Yu took out his mobile phone: "It seems that we need to consult a professional."
"What major?" Wei Yuanyang asked.
"Private investigation." Xie Yu said.
Not long after, a man came.
Fat, bald, orange T-shirt, big underpants, and a dirty computer bag, when he entered the door, he pushed Wei Yuanyang from the air conditioner aside, shaking his clothes while wiping sweat: "Oh my god, it's noon! It's killing me!"
"Xiao Zhao, we are going to enter Building 19 of Science Island tonight, and I will leave the preliminary work to you," Xie Yu said.
"Tonight?" Xiao Zhao was taken aback.
"Is time too tight?" Wei Yuanyang asked.
"It's okay." Xiao Zhao hehe, "The security system was designed by my classmate. It can be done in minutes, but you have to pay more."
"Money is not a problem." Xie Yu was very forthright, "I also want the floor plan of each floor, including the functional labels of all rooms."
Familiarly, he took out a can of Coca-Cola from the refrigerator, and Xiao Zhao took a moment to wipe his mouth: "The floor plan is not necessarily the case. The architectural design of this kind of national-level unit is kept secret, let alone the blueprint. They can’t even be sent by express delivery, they have to be sealed and flown to the Ministry of Construction for review.”
"I want a floor plan, you can figure out how to do it yourself." Xie Yu said without discussion.
"All right, let me take a look first." Xiao Zhao had no choice but to dig out the computer and connect to the Internet.
Tapped a line of words, and entered.
"This design unit is X University of Technology." Xiao Zhao said to himself on the screen, "Chief architect, Xu Weidong. This Xu Weidong... Oh, master tutor, that's interesting."
"How do you say it?" Xie Yu asked, Wei Yuanyang also moved his head closer.
"You don't understand this?" Xiao Zhao threw the empty jar on the ground, "Does the tutor draw his own pictures? They all ask his students to draw them. If the student draws a picture, he must make a copy in his computer. Don’t you have it?” He searched and muttered, “This project was started in 2005, and the master’s degree he brought in 05 included... this, this, and these, and then check on the real-name social networking site... account number Here. Well, this guy happens to be online, wait for me to send him a gray dove: "Hi Gong Gong! This is our intention map, please take a look!" Okay, he accepted it and ordered it. Yo, The desktop is still a Lamborghini, I’m here to find out if there are any blueprints in his hard drive. Disk D, no, disk E, projects, folders from 05, public buildings... Hey, yes, the office building of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the construction drawings are cut vertically Final Edition 4."
Seeing the download progress bar finish quickly, Wei Yuanyang was already stunned.
"Minutes." Xiao Zhao raised his eyebrows proudly.
"Hurry up and do the security thing." With a cold face, Xie Yu copied it into his computer and connected it to the printer.
The white A3 paper was swept away by the machine, and spit out bit by bit. As the drawings were gradually printed out, Xie Yu suddenly raised his eyes.
"What's going on here." He picked up the section plan, "There are three floors in the basement, but it's more than 30 meters deep underground."
Wei Yuanyang immediately turned to the plane: "The first and second basement floors are garages and equipment rooms, and the third floor is a storage room? What can be stored underground?"
"It's not Lamborghini anyway." Xie Yu tapped the paper, "It seems that our goal is it."
Half an hour later, Xiao Zhao Huanghuang made a fake ID card. Xie Yu opened the safe and ordered a stack of cash. He paid the money and delivered the goods. The two agreed to meet at Science Island at twelve o'clock in the evening.
It's night, Building 19.
Walking along the outer wall to the fire control room, the three of them squatted in the corner, Xiao Zhao connected the computer to the monitoring system of the building, touched his chin and waited for the successful cut-in.
"It's done." Xiao Zhao nodded. "Their system checks itself every 10 minutes. You must come out within this time. I will flash first, bye."
"I know." Xie Yu checked his watch, and the countdown began.
Xiao Zhao from behind waved his hand: "If you get caught, don't confess me."
Xie Yu snorted softly: "Did I say that my partner is a fat man?"
The windows on the first floor have anti-theft nets, Wei Yuanyang stacked a hand ladder, and Xie Yu used his strength to climb into the windows on the second floor.
The drawings showed that only the stairs in the northwest corner lead directly to the third basement floor. The two entered the corridor, quickly found it according to memory, took out their ID cards and swiped them, and the door of the stairwell opened in response.
Xie Yu ran down the stairs with the lightest steps, and glanced at his watch at the same time, there were 8 minutes and 40 seconds left.
"Where's the road?" Wei Yuanyang in front stopped suddenly.
This staircase was supposed to lead underground, but there were no steps below the first floor.
"There must be a mechanism!" Wei Yuanyang knocked along the wall, and finally heard an empty drum.
He pressed against the wall, and when it bounced off it turned out to be a fire hydrant.
"Look here." Xie Yu pointed to the emergency exit sign in the corner, "The wall next to it is covered with dust, only it is clean."
Wei Yuanyang patted and pressed, but there was no response.
Xie Yu took out his ID card and stuck the green EXIT on it.
The lights flashed twice.
The ground in front gradually moved away, and a staircase leading to the ground was revealed. The two looked at each other and walked down with their flashlights on.
"Why is it so cloudy here?" Wei Yuanyang shuddered, "Could it be the morgue underneath."
"It's not cloudy, it's cold." Xie Yu kept walking, "There are 7 minutes and 36 seconds left, we'd better stay 4 minutes to go out."
Going to the end, a huge door appeared in front of you.
Thick metal, round handle, with the LOGO and a line of words printed in the middle of the special letter department: dedicated to the Selaginella project.
☆, Selaginella
Wei Yuanyang didn't respond to these words, he just looked at the password keyboard on the door: "What's the matter?"
"There is a very primitive method." Xie Yu took out a small paper bag from his pocket and spread it out. Inside was some gray powder. He flattened it and approached it carefully, blowing it on the keyboard carefully, and then shone the flashlight from the side .
Fingerprints appeared on several keys.
“0、2、3、7。”谢宇念,“密码可能是4位,0和2上的指纹比较浅,3和7比较深。”
"3702? 7302? 3720? 7320? Never mind, try one by one." Wei Yuanyang reached out and pressed.
"Wait!" Xie Yu blocked him.
Wei Yuanyang had already pressed 3, and immediately froze with a beep.
"Wrong input may automatically call the police." Xie Yu reminded.
"Ah?!" Wei Yuanyang didn't dare to move.
Xie Yu sighed: "You lose first, there should be more than one chance."
"Then which one do I lose..." Wei Yuanyang asked.
"Whatever." Xie Yu said.
"3702!" Wei Yuanyang made up his mind.
Error.
"Damn it!" Wei Yuanyang cursed.
"That's right, at least the alarm didn't go off." Xie Yu quickly pressed 7320 without wasting any time.
Error, still no sound.
"It seems that there are three chances, and there is a last one." Xie Yu said.
"There are two left." Wei Yuanyang swallowed, "3720 and 7302."
Xie Yu stretched out his finger: "Wish me good luck."
Drop drop drop drop.
The two held their breath...
Click, the lock is open.
Wei Yuanyang turned his handle and pushed open the heavy door. A cloud of white mist rushed out amidst the hum of the pulleys moving.
The air-conditioning gradually dissipated, and the aperture of the flashlight was opened to the maximum.
"There's someone inside!" Wei Yuanyang whispered.
"Don't get excited, that's yourself." Xie Yu was extremely calm.
"What is this? Mirror? Glass?" Wei Yuanyang walked over, facing a tall reflective body.
Touch again, ice.
Eight huge ice bricks were stacked in the middle of the room, each the size of a shipping container.
"What on earth is this for!" Wei Yuanyang leaned closer and looked into the ice.
The tip of his nose was facing a ferocious face!
"I/fuck!" Wei Yuanyang jumped two meters away in an instant.
Looking up again, people were frozen in the ice, as if a crowded swimming pool froze instantly, freezing all struggling postures and frightened expressions.
"This—!" Wei Yuanyang was stunned.
"Mistletoe, soul preservation, cell freezing, human memory capsule." Xie Yu raised the miniature camera and pressed the shutter, "The facts are solid, and the criminal evidence is conclusive."
"Not good!" Wei Yuanyang looked at the time, "Hurry up! There are only 3 minutes left!"
Xie Yu took a few more recent photos, picked up the camera, and just stepped out of the metal door when he heard the alarm bell!
"What's going on!" Wei Yuanyang was shocked.
"No matter, run first!" Xie Yu rushed up the stairs in one breath, and the ground that had just been removed gradually closed!He jumped out with a stride, and the chair dragged across the corner got stuck, and Wei Yuanyang jumped out at the last moment.
"Who is it!" There was a shout in the corridor, and three security guards rushed in.
Xie Yu turned around, knocked one down with a knee bump, and Wei Yuanyang knocked the other two down with a few punches. Red sirens sounded all over the building, and more and more footsteps approached. Floor, jumped out from the window that came in.
Before they could catch their breath, there was a whooping sound, and the ash on the wall beside them burst open——
Wei Yuanyang looked into the distance, and saw that several black uniforms had surrounded him, holding nothing but standard Glock pistols in their hands.
"Go!" Xie Yu pushed him hard.
There were a few sounds, and flowers bloomed around the feet, and the two of them rushed past the corner of the building without thinking too much!Seeing the water bank in front of them, they finally felt a glimmer of life. Just two steps away, they were suddenly grabbed by the arms of the ambushing people and dragged into the bushes with a crash!
Xie Yu was about to fight back with all his strength.
"Don't move!" The man grabbed his wrist tightly.
With a flash of sight, he instantly recognized who the other party was.
"Old Qi!" Wei Yuanyang was overjoyed.
"Quiet!" Qi Xie scolded in a low voice, and then waved his sword finger.
There were two splashes in the distance, as if something heavy had fallen into the water.
"Over there!" The black uniform heard the movement, changed direction and chased towards the shore. Although no one was seen, they still fired a few shots into the water.
A few minutes passed, and the pursuers finally dispersed.
Taking a long breath, Wei Yuanyang turned to look at Qi Xie: "Why are you here?"
Qi Xie asked back: "Why can't I be here?"
"Aren't you in Shanghai?"
"Can't I come back?"
"Oh." Wei Yuanyang was speechless.
Xie Yu whispered: "Now is not the time to reminisce about the past, the question is how we get out of the island."
Qi Xie kicked the three sets of scuba in the grass, and asked with a smile, "Can you swim?"
Xie Yu replied disdainfully: "A necessary skill for human beings."
There is no wave in the night lake, like a dark glass curtain wall, without any warning, a corner is cracked.
The three of them broke through the water and got ashore. Guixintang's car was already waiting by the side of the road and pulled them straight to Lanjingxuan.
"I haven't been back for a long time, I still miss it." Qi Xie turned on the light and looked around the room.
"What do you miss about this? Miss the feeling of being under house arrest?" Wei Yuanyang took off his clothes and wrung water on the flowerpot.
"You have to see who he is under house arrest with." Xie Yu took out a miniature camera to check, and picked up two plastic bags to wrap it before going into the water. Fortunately, it can still be opened now.
"You guys are talking, I'm going to take a shower." Qi Xie left.
"To the point." Xie Yu did not forget to evaluate himself.
"By the way." Wei Yuanyang hung up his clothes, pulled out the chair and sat down, "What the hell is that ice cube, it's so creepy!"
"The Selaginella Project, a stupid experiment." Xie Yu flipped through the photos, "Some scientists thought that as long as the living people were frozen, they could be revived when they were thawed."
"Huh?" Wei Yuanyang touched his chin, "It seems that foreign countries have this technology? Although the method of unfreezing has not been determined, some volunteers have already participated. I hope that when the technology develops to a certain level, there will be a way to revive them. .”
"Because their refrigerant is liquid nitrogen, not tap water." Xie Yu mocked.
Wei Yuanyang came over to look at the photos he took: "These people's clothes look like those of the last century."
Xie Yu recalled: "Fengtie set up the mistletoe plan in 2959, and I guess this may be around 1959."
"Wait." Wei Yuanyang took the camera and flipped forward, "Look, these two ice bricks are different from the others, the other people inside are struggling desperately, but these two are standing very neatly with their eyes closed. Looks like he's sleeping."
Xie Yu zoomed in a bit, and the hair of those people was hanging to the back of their heads: "Maybe these people were lying down at first, and then stood up with ice after freezing."
"And ah." Wei Yuanyang took a closer look again, "There are other men, women, children, and everything in the ice. These two are middle-aged and elderly people, and they are still well-dressed, like a group of cultural people."
"Perhaps it can be inferred that these are two different types of freezers. One is random and forced, so it is very chaotic; the other is screened and voluntary, so it is very unified."
The bathroom door opened during the conversation.
"The ones you didn't take away last time, make do with them." Qi Xie threw a few clean clothes over.
Xie Yu and Wei Yuanyang took turns to take a shower, and the people from Guixintang brought a midnight snack. After being full, it was almost three o'clock in the middle of the night, the excitement of the adventure completely subsided, and all the exhaustion hit.
In the weary silence, the bell suddenly rang——
Xie Yu sat startled and opened his eyes, only to find that it was already dawn and he had fallen asleep on the sofa.
After touching the phone, he cleared his throat and returned to normal: "Hello."
"Xie Yu." An unfriendly male voice.
"What." He frowned.
"Your sister is in my hands." The man said suddenly, "You must report to the ship pier before twelve o'clock noon, alone, with those photos, and you are not allowed to call the police, otherwise you will know the consequences."
Xie Yu was taken aback, but his tone was still very restrained: "How can I trust you."
"Brother!" A familiar voice on the opposite side was still unreasonable and impatient, "What before twelve o'clock! Come here within half an hour, or you will die!"
"Hello!" Xie Yu shouted.
The other party has hung up.
"What's wrong?" Wei Yuanyang got up yawning after being woken up.
Xie Yu said seven words: "My sister was kidnapped."
"Ah?!" Wei Yuanyang woke up instantly, "Your sister was, kidnapped?"
"The other party must be someone from the Special Information Department!" Xie Yu was rummaging through the camera in the living room, "He asked me to take the photo to the ship pier. The time limit is four hours, and I am not allowed to call the police, otherwise the ticket will be torn up."
Wei Yuanyang gritted his teeth: "These bastards! They are so shameless!"
"Did you see my camera!" Xie Yu lifted the sofa cushions, no.
"Here." A voice came from behind.
Qi Xie came out of the bedroom, shaking his hand, Xie Yu rushed over with a few steps, but his hand was in vain.
"Calm down." Qi Xie said calmly, "If you do what he said, you will die this trip. They will kill you first, destroy the photos, and then kill your sister."
"I'm calm." Xie Yu stared at him, "Give me the camera."
"No." Qi Xie said.
Xie Yu had no choice but to grab it hard, and in a hurry, he used real kung fu.Qi Xie was not polite, and threw the camera to Wei Yuanyang, and twisted it with his backhand, pressing Xie Yu against the wall.
"First of all, your sister is not at the ferry terminal at all, but at the ferry warehouse." Qi Xie spoke steadily and clearly, "They sent you to take a detour just to get rid of the reinforcements and wear down your will. Secondly, she is very safe now , was not violated or had his little finger chopped off. Third, the other party was not one person but twenty, and they were ambushed in four groups, and everyone was holding a gun. Once you entered the designated position, three snipers would aim at your head at the same time. , if you don't want Xie Xin to watch your brains fly out, then calm me down immediately."
Wei Yuanyang's brain froze: "Old Qi, how do you know such details! Could it be that you are with them!"
Qi Xie let go of Xie Yu: "Nod and shake your head to tell me."
Wei Yuanyang broke out in a cold sweat: "You are a little too big."
"Okay, there is still 1 hour and 50 minutes left." Qi Xie looked at the clock, "The opponent has too many guns, and it is difficult for us to ensure the safety of the hostages by ourselves. Now we have two options, one is to deal with it in the open, call the police and get support , The second is to deal with it secretly, and transfer people from Guixintang."
Xie Yu's rationality resumed: "You can't call the police. The Special Information Department may have contact with the police."
"Then I'll find an important person from Guixintang." Qi Xie dialed the phone and asked the other party to call a team of "cleaners" quickly, asking for elites and guns.
"Will they give it to someone?" Xie Yu suddenly realized that this was tantamount to tearing Guixintang and the Special Information Department apart, putting the conflict on the table and officially starting a war.
"Master Xun is not such a patient person." Qi Xie smiled playfully, "It's time to shoot the bullet."
☆, victory or defeat
Squeezed behind the new buildings, there is an empty ferry warehouse. It has been closed down for many years and has become a waste dump. There is a big demolished word written in white paint on the outer wall, and the rolling gate is also broken. Horns piercing into the scorching sun outside.
Xie Xin was blindfolded and sat in a chair with his hands and feet cuffed and his mouth sealed with tape.
She could only smell the gray smell, hear the cicadas singing in the distance, and count four pairs of feet pacing vigilantly in front of her, and some noises came from the intercom from time to time.
Crack, a leather shoe stepped on the broken glass.
Stopped.
Subconsciously raised her head, she seemed to be able to see a figure through the blindfold, cutting through the scorching white light.
Steady, straight, firm.
"Stop," said a voice.
The footsteps on the opposite side stopped.
"Where are the pictures?" the voice asked.
"Here." It was her brother.
"Is there a backup?"
"No."
"Throw it over." The voice commanded.
"Let people go first." Xie Yu said.
Xie Xin felt something hit the back of his head, it should be a gun.
"Stop!" Xie Yu shouted.
A moment later, something was placed on the ground in the distance, and it slid to her feet.The tactile sensation in the back of the head is gone, and the gunman is probably going to pick that thing up.
Just at this moment, just listen to whoo!The weight fell down, and then there were a few bang bang gunshots, and everything was quiet.
It's not like the grand and intense gun battle scene in the movie at all.Xie Xin was thinking like this, she didn't know what happened around her, she only knew that the matter might be over.
"Don't worry, it's alright."
Finally, Xie Yu's voice rang in his ears, with a gentleness that was not usually there.The handcuffs and shackles were released, and she pulled off the blindfold with a snap. Just as she adjusted to the light, she saw the corpse under her feet at first sight.
A hole was opened in the side of the brain, and brain pulp and bone fragments were sprayed all over the floor.
"Afraid?" Xie Yu asked.
"When did I ever get scared!" The high-heeled shoe kicked the corpse hard, "If you dare to tie me up, you will die!"
Xie Yu smiled, and then picked up the camera in the corpse's hand.
Xie Xin glanced at him up and down to make sure that Xie Yu was not injured, and then looked around. There were many corpses in black uniforms lying in front of him and on the mezzanine upstairs, and some people were carrying them out of the warehouse, throwing them away Entering a van, it seems that sanitation workers are throwing garbage every day.
"Who are these people?" Xie Xin frowned.
"The ones who died are bad people, and the others are good people." Xie Yu explained casually.
Xie Xin didn't bother to investigate, and was about to walk out the door when he staggered suddenly.
Xie Yu supported her: "What's wrong?"
Xie Xin rubbed his ankle: "I twisted it before."
Xie Yu picked her up without saying a word, took two steps and asked, "Have you become heavier?"
Xie Xin was angry: "Of course it has become heavier. The last time you carried me was in sixth grade."
"Maybe you didn't hear it." Xie Yu said in a serious tone, "I'm calling you fat in a different way."
Xie Xin slapped him hard on the back.
Xie Yu was expressionless: "Please don't attack your means of transportation."
Xie Xin snorted and smiled: "When those people asked me to call you over, I told them that my brother is super annoying, Leo type O blood, he wants to save face, has a bad temper, and is narrow-minded, you use this If you want to threaten him in this way, you have to be mentally prepared to be killed by him."
Xie Yu stepped out of the door: "It's useless to flatter, I never take this kind of thing."
Nothing seems to happen.
Qi Xie opened the newspaper in Lanjingxuan, and the news on the page was still from his parents. Wei Yuanyang returned to the brigade, but he didn't hear any comments from his colleagues.A confrontation in which 20 people died was completely wiped out, and no news was leaked.
Only the person involved knows that there are undercurrents flowing under the calm surface, and the ripples are like knives.
Xie Yu has been sitting in front of the computer for seven hours.
He knows very well what kind of echo the words he is typing will have...
"The mistletoe project began in 2959. In order to preserve the country's cultural awareness, the government of country A developed human body freezing technology. The authorities selected human beings with specific thoughts and let them die in suspended animation. They will wait for the impact of the end of the world to pass and the new civilization to start. Resurrection, hoping to continue the group consciousness of country A. However, due to immature technology, in 2960, the first batch of 200 volunteers all died, and the plan was forced to stop. In 2975, the authorities of country A tried to eliminate dissidents. It is proposed again that in the name of science, massacres were carried out. About 600 people were forced to participate in freezing and died in the laboratory. In fact, the mistletoe project was not invented by Feng Tie.
