Starship: Traveling with Monsters

Chapter 14 Unannounced Visits

Li Xiaochen fulfilled his promise. When the researchers in the entire laboratory were gone the next day, Li Xiaochen dismissed another researcher who stayed behind and untied Lei Yu. The lab circled around.

There are all kinds of equipment in the laboratory. The researchers obviously don't have much desire to organize them. They are all placed on the experimental table casually. There is a large table of messy things. Lei Yu saw a thick stack of materials There was a small beaker on the book, and the beaker was filled with a little purple transparent liquid. Lei Yu looked at the beaker curiously, and while looking at him, Li Xiaochen frowned and explained: "The mentor and the others are too careless. , this dangerous chemical is lying around."

"Chemicals?" Lei Yu asked casually.

"Ah...it's okay, it's just a poisonous liquid, you'd better not touch it." Li Xiaochen seemed to be nervous and put the beaker elsewhere.The laboratory has a special refrigerator for storing chemicals. Lei Yu watched as Li Xiaochen opened the refrigerator with a beaker in his hand, then carefully put the beaker in, and finally locked the door.

When Li Xiaochen locked the cabinet door, Lei Yu subconsciously glanced at the laboratory table beside him, and saw a scalpel shining coldly, neatly placed together with tweezers and other utensils.Lei Yu took a deep breath, turned his head and looked at Li Xiaochen who was tidying up the closet with his back facing him, not knowing what kind of mentality he was holding, Lei Yu moved his body slightly closer, and with his hands tied behind his back, he dexterously moved his fingers. hook, and easily slipped a small scalpel into the sleeve.

This series of movements were all done subconsciously by Lei Yu. The movements were skillful and quick. When Li Xiaochen just turned around to look at him, Lei Yu had already returned to his original position, with the same direction and angle. Li Xiaochen didn't even notice that he had moved such a short distance.After all, it took him less than a minute to put the beaker into the freezer and lock the door.

"Can't I really leave the laboratory? I still want to go outside and have a look." Although Lei Yu is very confident in himself, he is still afraid of being discovered by Li Xiaochen.So after a while, he said so, trying to divert Li Xiaochen's attention.

"This...it's not very good." Li Xiaochen was a little bit embarrassed: "And another researcher who stayed behind is coming back, I just asked him to help me go shopping for some excuses, and it will be very troublesome if we find that we are not there when we come back .”

"Okay." Lei Yu turned his head away, looked around the entire laboratory, and finally said with a wry smile: "There is a window, can I open it?"

The laboratory of the Central Hospital is on the eighth floor of a high-rise building. In order to ensure safety, the windows are closed. However, in many cases, because of certain experiments, the windows are opened from time to time for ventilation.Li Xiaochen didn't think there was anything wrong with Lei Yu's request, so he helped to open the window. Outside the window was the gray-blue sky, and there were a few tall buildings, but there seemed to be mountains and forests in the distance, and he could vaguely see it. You can see lush green trees.

"This central hospital is built in such a remote location." Lei Yu walked to the window and raised his head to look into the distance. He didn't know what to see at the end of the sky. The gray-blue sky seemed to have lost all hope.

"Because the Central Hospital only treats personnel designated by the federal government, and it is next to the base of the Academy of Sciences, and many special experiments will be carried out here—for example, like you."

"Li Xiaochen, why are you here?" Lei Yu turned his head and glanced at Li Xiaochen behind him. This man not only looked thin, but also a bit shy in character. I didn't expect that such a person would give a group of crazy scientists be an assistant.

Li Xiaochen shook his head, followed with a wry smile and said: "To tell you the truth, my family actually has a little background in the Central Committee, but I am only the third son of the family, and I have no talent or excellence. They thought I was troublesome, so they threw me away." It’s like a burden that pushed me here.”

"Has your life been arranged by your family?" Lei Yu murmured, and looked up at Li Xiaochen: "Then will you be willing? Just stay here for the rest of your life and accept your future fate."

"I don't have the strength." Li Xiaochen simply admitted his incompetence: "I don't have the strength, I don't know many things, but I am more interested in chemistry and other things, and staying here may also be a kind of exercise... After all, the tutors and the others They're all very knowledgeable."

Lei Yu turned his head and continued to stare at the misty scenery outside the window. After a long time, he suddenly asked, "What about me? What do you think of me? Will I stay in this damned place for the rest of my life?"

Li Xiaochen paused, as if he didn't know how to answer Lei Yu. After thinking for a long time, he suddenly said: "Actually...as long as the instructor takes out that monster, I can intercede, and they will let you go... ..."

"Sure—will you let me go?" Lei Yu specially emphasized the tone of "Sure".

Sure enough, Li Xiaochen hesitated for a long time before answering in a low voice: "Maybe, I'm not sure either..."

"It's just a possibility, but do you think it's a big possibility?" Lei Yu leaned his back against the wall by the window, flexibly moved his wrist tied behind his back a few times, and the scalpel in his sleeve fell into place. It slipped into the palm of his hand, and he pressed the blade against the restraint belt that bound his wrist, rubbing the sharp blade carefully.

Li Xiaochen lowered his head and seemed to be thinking. He didn't think much about Lei Yu's movements. Lei Yu squinted his eyes and sped up the movements of his hands. He could feel a slight tear in the restraint belt, which made him even more nervous. His eyes Staring closely at Li Xiaochen in front of him, his actions were methodical... However, Lei Yu, who was highly concentrated at this time, suddenly heard a sentence from Li Xiaochen's mouth that shocked him.

"Your brother contacted me." Li Xiaochen said.

Lei Yu was taken aback by his words, and the knife in his hand trembled, almost scratching his wrist.

"My brother? You mean... Lei Xiao?"

"Hmm..." Li Xiaochen nodded and said, "I heard from my mentor that when the central government found Lei Xiao's underground laboratory and took people to arrest him - I don't know how to describe the scene, it was chaos anyway, Lei Xiao Xiao ran away, but you were brought back by the mentor and the others, and then Lei Xiao used some means... Anyway, he pretended to be another person to find me, and asked me to send a message to you."

"Did my brother tell you anything?" Lei Yu couldn't wait to hear the news of his elder brother.But the movement of his hands didn't stop, still slowly cutting the tough bondage belt with a sharp scalpel.

"He said he would bring someone to rescue you, and told you to be good and not run away." Li Xiaochen casually found a chair and sat down, his eyes suddenly became sharp, and he stared at Lei Yu motionlessly: "Of course, if you If you want to run, you'd better do it realistically, knocking me out and hurting me is the best plan."

Lei Yu couldn't react to Li Xiaochen's sudden words, and stared at him in astonishment for a while.

"Don't look at me like that." Li Xiaochen said: "I know that from the very beginning, you only have the idea of ​​escaping, and I'm just pushing the boat along. If you really want to leave, I'm sure I can't stop you... What? Like? Do you want me to show you the way out?"

Lei Yu was silent for a while, the shackles in his hand had been successfully separated by the scalpel, he raised his head and stared carefully at Li Xiaochen in front of him, and suddenly laughed: "Since you want to say it, then tell me."

Li Xiaochen was quite generous, and briefly explained the way out to Lei Yu. The laboratory is eight floors high, and there are security patrols on each floor, and the elevators on the road are full of surveillance cameras. You must avoid the ubiquitous surveillance cameras. It's impossible, so it's better to dress up.Li Xiaochen asked Lei Yu to change into his clothes and also asked him to bring his access card.

"As long as you have a pass card, the defense system of the Central Hospital will open the door for you, but you need to be fast. Another researcher I dispatched will be back soon. You must leave the Central Hospital's defense system within 10 minutes at most. Otherwise, it is likely to be chased by the troops stationed around."

Li Xiaochen explained to Lei Yu while picking and choosing on the experimental table. He first prepared a syringe, filled it with light blue liquid, grabbed Lei Yu's hand and beat him down, saying: : "Your current body is too weak, it may be a bit troublesome to escape - this is the body repair fluid, which can improve your cell activity, make your body highly self-repair, and any trauma you receive will heal itself in a short time, But if it’s too serious, it won’t work.”

After Li Xiaochen gave Lei Yu an injection, he immediately picked up an ashtray on the table.He threw the ashtray to Lei Yu, and said, "If you want to leave, move quickly. Use this - to knock me out, it's better to see blood. Of course, I hope you will be careful. I don't want to become a vegetable."

Lei Yu held the ashtray in his hand and looked at Li Xiaochen hesitantly: "Are you really willing to let me go?"

"It's okay if you don't leave, anyway, your brother will pick you up, but I think if your brother comes, it will definitely cause a big commotion, and it's unknown whether he can really escape." Li Xiaochen spread his hands and said it doesn't matter: "I don't care. I help if I can. If I can't help, I'm just like that."

"Then...thank you, and—sorry!" After Lei Yu finished speaking, he clenched the ashtray in his hand and moved closer to Li Xiaochen. Li Xiaochen rubbed his temples, closed his eyes and said: " bring it on."

-

After beating Li Xiaochen unconscious, Lei Yu didn't dare to delay, and walked out of the laboratory with his head down.In order to avoid the surveillance cameras, Lei Yu chose to take the elevator suggested by Li Xiaochen. Although there are surveillance cameras in the elevator, it is better than being photographed by countless surveillance cameras.

Originally, Lei Yu's actions were quite smooth. When he walked out of the laboratory, he lowered his head and waited for the elevator. There was no one in the elevator. When he secretly rejoiced, Lei Yu walked in. However, when the elevator just descended from the eighth floor to the seventh floor, the elevator door Suddenly it opened again, and a man dressed like a security guard walked in. Lei Yu's heart missed a beat at that time, his head was even lower, and he huddled in the corner without saying a word.

Fortunately, the security guard didn't look like he wanted to talk to Lei Yu, he just glanced at Lei Yu, turned around and pressed the button for the third floor of the elevator.

Lei Yu was so nervous that he didn't dare to take a breath. He secretly prayed that the elevator would be faster and faster, but time seemed to turn against Lei Yu. Lei Yu suddenly felt that the elevator was descending very, very slowly. It took a long time to reach the third floor. Lei Yu subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the security guard stepping out of the elevator door, but in the next second, he had to get nervous again.

Although the security guard went out, another person came in on the third floor, wearing a doctor's white coat very similar to Lei Yu's, wearing glasses and carrying a bag of things in his hand. When he came in, this person did not look at Lei Yu, but Quickly pressed the button for the eighth floor of the elevator.But Lei Yu held his breath, he almost took out the scalpel that had been hidden in his sleeve.

This person who just came in is another researcher whom Li Xiaochen dismissed before!

Although Lei Yu said that he couldn't remember the appearance of all the researchers in the laboratory, he probably had an impression, so Lei Yu recognized at a glance that this person was the researcher who was sent out by Li Xiaochen before.

So... what to do?Is it better to strike first?Lei Yu thought for a while, and stood behind the researcher and stared at him carefully. The researcher seemed to be concentrating on something, and did not look back at Lei Yu. The elevator was still descending slowly. When it reached the first floor, at this time, the researcher seemed to be Noticing something, he suddenly turned his head towards Lei Yu's direction——

It's now!Lei Yu's eyes widened, and the scalpel in his hand was pulled out with lightning speed, and it hit the researcher's neck. Taking advantage of his height, Lei Yu used his body to block the monitor in the elevator. In the filming, he just made a movement like approaching and hooking the opponent's shoulder, and secretly using force, scraped a shallow wound on the opponent's neck with a scalpel.

"Don't move, or your head will fall to the ground." Lei Yu lowered his voice and said in a sinister manner on purpose.

"You..." The researcher tilted his head and glanced at Lei Yu, his eyes suddenly filled with panic: "Is that... Lei Yu?"

"Follow me out!" Lei Yu pushed him, and as soon as the elevator door opened, the two of them walked out of the elevator entrance. The lobby door on the first floor was close at hand, and Lei Yu would be able to go smoothly after walking a few more steps. Leaving this damn Central Hospital, but his good luck seems to have run out.

Before reaching the entrance of the hall, a bunch of security guards surrounded Lei Yu and the researcher with guns in their hands. Lei Yu was at a loss for a moment, wondering which link went wrong, did Li Xiaochen lie to him?

But soon, Lei Yu discovered that among the group of security guards surrounding him, the man who had taken the elevator with Lei Yu before was there.
