mayfly era

The eighth district, the bridge leading to the isolated island in the city.

"I'm not mistaken, it must be broken there," said the smoking gun.

Chen Yue glanced at the map sent by Shanghan, which showed that the long bridge was broken in three places.But the width and condition of the fracture can only be known by approaching.

Under the bridge is a thin layer of stagnant water, terribly filthy, and yellow, green, and blue dirt floats thickly or lightly, forming a rough and ugly brittle ice shell, and in some places it is a mixture of ice and water.Even if you don't freeze to death if you fall, you will be disgusted to death.

"It's not a big problem." Chen Li glanced at the panorama again, and visually judged that the rift valley was not very wide. With the materials he brought, it should be passable.

"Then let's go, Team Leader Chen." Smoker said.

"I'm warning you, don't imitate the [-] in the bureau."

"Speaking of which, why did he call you 'team leader', such a... bureaucratic title."

"He calls everyone 'team leader'." Chen Li said.

"Strange, he never called me that before."

"Because you look like a hooligan."

"How can I be such a hooligan who respects the old and loves the young." Smoker yelled dissatisfied.

The two walked to the broken part of the bridge, which was two meters wide. Judging from the crack, the bridge deck was quite far from the water surface. The solid steel bridge had exposed the structure at the base of the column due to the sinking of the water surface.

"This steel bridge is very strong, and it won't break like this if it breaks naturally, as if it was specially cut off." Chen Li said.

"Large doses of energy bombs can be blown out, but this dose is used to blow up bridges, which is somewhat wasteful." Smoker said.

"Scan to see if there is any remaining energy," Chen Li paused, and then said, "Unless it is to cut off the access to this island."

Smoker turned on the scanning system on his mobile phone. He half-kneeled on the ground, bent down, and used the scanning window to approach the lower fracture. According to the characteristics of energy bombs, there are more residues in the lower places.

"Found it." While the smoking gun was speaking, the scanning system issued a capture reminder and automatically reported the model of the energy bar.

"Conventional materials." Chen Li said.

Smoker got up from the ground, he patted the debris on his pants, looked at the scan results again, and frowned slightly, "No, there are additional ingredients, which were not detected."

"What type of additional ingredients?" Chen Li asked.

"Not detected." The smoking gun refreshed the results, showing that an empty window was added for conventional materials.

"Let's go first and ask Kujira to come over and collect materials." Chen Li quickly made a decision.

The presence of unknown ingredients does not mean a high risk factor. The scanning program loaded in their mobile phones can only detect conventional materials with data records, and the rest have two situations of empty windows and garbled characters.

In the interval between the smoking gun and Kujira, Chen Yue had already used the metal torn out by hand to build a path. This metal is very soft and portable when rolled up in a vacuum environment. It will harden quickly after contact with oxygen, and it can be used as a temporary structure material. It could not be better.

"How many meters are left?" The smoking gun asked about the remaining amount of metal torn by hand.

"27." Chen Li said, and the two walked forward along the side of the bridge.

The buildings in front are still indistinct, only a magnificent and huge "main hall" can be vaguely discerned, and other buildings are scattered in height and some are hidden behind irregular objects.

Even though it was daytime, there was a gust of wind on the bridge, and the buildings in the distance were eerie and creepy. Compared with complete loneliness, it was more like a mute with deep hatred.

There was a thick layer of dust on the bridge. Walking to a slightly thinner place, the smoking gun stepped on it vigorously, and said with some surprise, "This is an electromagnetic ground."

"Which generation?" Chen Li asked.

"I can't step on that," Smoker grinned, "but it's certainly not the latest."

They walked to the next fracture, and this one was even more extreme. The shattered ground spread for four or five meters, and the length of the complete suspension in the middle was about four meters.

Chen Li shook his head helplessly, and began to "decorate".

"What a waste of material." The bong helped fix the other side.

The metal sheet quickly stretched to the other end, forming a metal road, which was laid on top of it, and it didn't look very strong.

"Be careful." Chen Li instructed.

"It's okay, I don't have to be afraid." Smoker said, stepping on the metal plate to test the stability.

"If you fall, at least you can change your legs." Chen Li said.

Smoker turned around and said with a smile, "I just think metal prosthetics are cool."

"Let's go, rascal," Chen Li said after a pause, "be careful."

Smoky walked quickly across the metal road, to the other side full of gravel, and the stones crumbled under his feet.

Chen Li wanted to throw the safety rope to the smoking gun, but felt that there was no need to be so cautious. Although this was the place where the unknown "creature" had stayed, it was not the first time he had fought this monster.

There is nothing to be afraid of, he and Lao Yan are invincible in the world.

He stooped slightly, started to sprint, stepped on the middle of the metal plate in one step, stepped on the gap between the tail of the metal plate and the ground at the other end in the second step, and the unique toughness of metal made his body bounce upwards.Yan Qiang understood his intention in an instant, stabilized his figure immediately, and opened his arms - the next second, a familiar figure floated into his arms, wrapped his arms around his waist, turned around and threw Chen Yue to the front of the strong on the ground.

Just before the ground under his feet made even more crumbling noises, Chen Yue pulled him over. After landing in a safe zone, both of them couldn't help laughing, falling with the ground debris.

"I sort of understand why the serious mission team doesn't let people fall in love within the team." Chen Li said seriously.

"Fuck it." Smoker turned around and hugged Chen Li, the thrilling and sweet experience just now made him burn all over.

"Agreed, fuck it." Chen Yue took a gentle bite on the lips of the smoking gun. Kissing is meaningless, and the biting between male tigers is just a game.

The bong kissed him back, parched lips were a supreme delicacy, restraint was a waste of money.If it weren't for the urging of the task ahead, perhaps there are still unknown gods and demons watching them, they would never have separated so quickly.

"Let's go, work." Chen Li said shortly.

"Grandpa wants to retire again, and grandpa still wants to have an office romance." Smoker said.

The two approached the building group in front of them. At this time, the appearance of the group had gradually become clear. The building had been painted somehow, reflecting the cold metal light.And those irregular shapes are like abstract sculptures.

The last fracture is visible. Unlike other places, this fracture seems to have been repaired with something. There are some rotten flocs hanging there. It should be cloth or packing board—how could anyone Repair broken bridges with something like this.

"Here..." Chen Li frowned.

"Something tragic must have happened." Smoker answered the words with some seriousness.

"Anyway, let's go first."

"Wait." Yan Qiang suddenly stopped Chen Li, and he pointed to his feet, his expression not very good-looking.

Chen Li looked down at his fingers and was also stunned.

Below is frozen sewage, the water surface is not smooth, and a large number of rugged lines are stacked together—there are countless bone fragments, which are shaking slightly like hallucinations, as if they will climb up in the next second.

Ice, bones, but moving...

Chen Li blinked vigorously, and looked directly at the scene under the bridge again.

The picture is still, and the skulls are lying quietly under the ice, with empty eyes open. Some skulls are very small, and they are definitely not adults.

"What happened here?" Chen Li asked in a low voice.

The smoking gun raised his hand and tapped his forehead, mourning the dead.Chen Yue didn't move, he looked at the mutilated bones under the ice, and suddenly a picture that didn't belong to his memory squeezed into his mind.

It was fragments one by one, and he was in a dark room, grabbing the fragments into the palm of his hand one by one.On the fragments, the blood-red eyes, the crying mouth, the white clothes that were taken off... He wanted to put these fragments together, but no matter how hard he tried, the fragments would continue to fall off one by one, The frame is always incomplete.

"Chen Li..."

A voice came from outside the room. He gritted his teeth and wanted to fight one last time, but was instantly pulled out by the "hand" of the voice.Immediately, white light passed through the eyelids, and all perceptions returned to reality.

"Chen Li!" The smoking gun grabbed his shoulder with an anxious expression on his face.

Chen Li flicked his hand away from the pipe irritably, "What's wrong? It's called the soul."

"Go down without telling you!" Smoker couldn't help raising his voice, "What are you doing? You almost fell into it just now!"

Chen Li was stunned for a moment, the worried expression on the smoking gun was genuine, he shook his head in a daze, "I seem to have seen something just now... I should have imagined it."

"What did you see?" Smoker frowned.

"I saw." Chen Li glanced at the corpses under his feet again, and he couldn't sum up what he saw just now, "...I seem to have seen what they looked like before they were alive."

Yan Qiang knew Chen Li's character well, and it was absolutely impossible for him to open his mouth at such a time, but such an answer still made him write shock on his face.

"Stop talking, let's go first." Chen Li said in a low voice.

The smoker hesitated to speak, he seemed to have many words gathered on the tip of his tongue, and it was difficult to choose which one to say first.

"Let's go." Chen Li urged again.

"Either...or we don't go." Smoker said.

"What are you afraid of?" Chen Li suddenly smiled as he spoke, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Smoker sighed, "It's you I'm afraid of."

"It's okay, I'm not afraid."

"You should let Master Guang be your partner. I can't hold on to this dog leash anymore." Smoker shook his head helplessly.

Chen Li frowned, "Who do you call a dog?"

"I am I am," Smoker said, "I drag you by the leash every day."

Chen Li imagined this scene for a while, and laughed without restraint. He punched the smoking gun on the shoulder, and said angrily, "Okay, don't arrange it, if it doesn't work, I will be conscious."

"It's really windy here." Smoker shrank his neck.
