The rooftop on the top floor, because everyone is busy with work, generally no one will come here, and the iron gate can be locked, even if someone comes, you can prepare in advance, it is a good place for communication.

"What are you doing here?" Without exchanging pleasantries, Yu Xi still repeated this one of the questions she was most concerned about.

"Well, there's something wrong."

Resisting the urge to punch someone in the face, Yan Yu unconsciously lowered his voice, tried his best to smile, and suppressed all the threats that he wanted to say, image!image!It's not worth ruining your image for this kind of thing! "You probably want to find someone, right? Do you think it's more efficient to find someone by yourself or with my help?" Seeing how he was still "hanging around" just now, he knew that he hadn't found it.

"You can pretend you don't know." Reese felt that there was no need to involve Yu Xixi further. Such a form of warning was already very telling. If she took a step forward, the troubles she would usher in would not be as simple as that up.

"Even if it's just a warning, it's very frightening, but I don't want them to succeed. Maybe I can guarantee peace for a while, but I can't guarantee eternal safety. The best way to get out is to send them to them." The place to go." Yan Xi has never been a hero, she just has no choice at the moment; normal people would choose to get rid of it once and for all, wouldn't they?

Reese seemed to be convinced by Yu Xixi, took out a note from his pocket and handed it to Yu Xi, who opened it and just glanced at it before frowning, "I know this person, he is you guys The inner ghost you found?"

"I don't know yet, it just jumped out of his number."

"Number?" The statement...

"Just like your time," Reese added for the bewildered.

"So, he will be the next victim?" Yan Yu frowned even tighter. She was still familiar with that name, but for a while she couldn't connect him with that kind of gang. That person was just a quickie. The retired doorman, who used to work here until late at night, would occasionally stop to have a small chat with her when he patrolled the laboratory and passed by the laboratory.

"Should have checked his background information?" Yu Xi returned the note to Reese, who lit it and silently watched it turn into ashes in the air.

"It doesn't seem special at the moment, some things can't be helped." Reese shrugged innocently. If machines can do everything, then there is no need for them to exist; and it is precisely because of the development of technology that some people use it back A more primitive method-manual subpoena; in this way, their investigation has increased a lot.

"Did you come to find someone to directly control or monitor?" Then what machine gave the number because that person was about to become a victim?But maybe it's not that simple for an ordinary doorman to become a victim in that kind of case?

"He should be at work today, but I didn't find him at the post." Otherwise, he wouldn't be bumped into by Yan Xixi after Jefferson wandered around.

Not on duty?Has something gone wrong?

"what time is it now?"

"Three o'clock."

Yan Yanxi's nerves that had just tensed up suddenly relaxed again, "Now it's the shift break time, I probably know where he will be, come with me."

Yan Yuxi and Reese walked in tandem, keeping a certain distance—the distance between the two strangers who were walking the same way.

After all, Yuxi Xi has a lot of familiar people here, and rashly walking with a new face will attract unnecessary attention, which is the last thing he needs right now.

only--

"Yuxi, it looks like you've rested. I just found something here. Would you like to take a look?" Jack Hodgins' sudden departure made the original plan come to naught. Reese walked past the two without stopping, just When Yu Xi looked up and saw him take out his mobile phone, the former immediately understood what it meant.

"What discovery?" Yu Xixi followed Hodgins to the laboratory calmly, took out his mobile phone and pretended that he had a message to reply, bowed his head and edited; for the time being, this is the only way to tell Reese what he is looking for Let her know where people might be, and if you want Reese to make progress.

After sending the message, Yu Xi just stepped into Hodgins' laboratory, "What do you want me to see?" Scanning around the laboratory, there are indeed various insects, many of which are in the case. Among those who were "saved" by Hodgins, it can only be said that these guys' lives are not bad.

"This way!" Hodgins led Yan Xi to the position in front of the microscope.

"What is this?" It should be a plant, but Yu Xixi couldn't tell what kind of plant it was, so he looked up after a short glance and waited for Hodgins' explanation.

"Spodoptera ornithogalli."

"What's that?" Yu Xixi was still in a daze. This was something she hadn't experienced at all, so could you tell her in a more popular way?

"A typical aquatic community, commonly found in ponds and streams."

Common in ponds and streams?

"Which skeleton was this found on?" But no matter which site it was, no ponds or streams were found within two kilometers.

"On the bones of the seventh victim." Hodgins tidied up the things on the experimental table a little and laid out a forest map. This place is gone, and other places are not very eligible." And that eligible place has been circled by Hodgins with a red pen.

"Are you going to check it out?"

"Yes, I'll be leaving with Lance in a while, do you want to go together?"

"...No, I'll go to Brennan's." Yu Xi was really helpless to some people in Jefferson who always had an ambiguous and gossiping tone when they mentioned her and Lance. Can I ask them not to think too much?

Hodgins seemed to be relieved by Yu Xixi's refusal—carrying this guy now may be like carrying a "□□", and it is of course better to be conscious.

"Uncle who loves to worry about you." Leaving Hodgins with a blank look, Yan Xi turned around gracefully and left.

Uncle?

Hodgins was stunned for three seconds and then quickly chased him out, shouting loudly, "Yuxi, what do you mean by that? I'm only a few years older than you, how can I become an uncle? Tell me clearly! Come back! Speak clearly!"

Yan Yuxi pretended that he didn't hear Hodgins' yelling, covered his face with one hand and quickened his pace, this guy is hopeless!Such a shameful thing can still be yelled so loudly, didn't he notice everyone's eyes?

"Hey, my dear, calm down! Calm down!" Angela, who was passing by, also felt that this guy's behavior was a bit embarrassing, but there was no way, who else would come if she didn't "save the situation"?Reluctantly pushing him back to the laboratory, "Don't be so childish." Why is this guy always easily "ignited" by Yan Xixi?

"Besides, even an uncle is a handsome uncle."

……

Hodgins was pissed off, was that consolation?Why is it more like gloating?

"Dr. Brennan, is there anything I can do to help?" So far, Yuxi has not seen an intern come to help with the case. It seems that it is indeed what Camille said in the first phone call. They have their own affairs and cannot come to the laboratory, so they are relatively short of manpower.

Although she was still asking, Yu Xi had already put on the gloves consciously. It might be a hindrance in other aspects, but she still has no problem with the bone examination; the one who is being examined now should be the newly discovered victim.

Brennan looked up at Yu Xixi's eyes, but she didn't answer her question, "You were attacked?"

"...There is such a thing, but there is no major problem." Smiling to express his gratitude, Yu Xi bowed his head and started his work. Seeing that she was standing in front of him intact, Brennan continued to work without asking any more questions. With the addition of Yu Xixi, the progress can be much faster.

For a while, the laboratory fell into an extremely quiet atmosphere. Both of them lowered their heads and worked hard without any conversation. Probably the clearest thing was the sound of their breathing.

"Dr. Brennan, come and see…"

Yu Xixi's words were buried in a piercing siren, which was the sound of a security alarm. Generally speaking, such an alarm sounded because dangerous elements broke in, or extremely dangerous items were found and people needed to be evacuated.

"What's going on?" Brennan also put down the work at hand, and his brows were knit together. This kind of situation is very uncommon in the laboratory, and the general alarm is not this sound.

"Brennan, Yuxi, we need to evacuate temporarily." Angela ran into the laboratory in a hurry, "Someone forced his way into Jefferson and a gun battle broke out. There have been casualties."

Yan Yuxi's heart "thumped", was it those murderers who broke in or...John Reese?Or "together"?

"You two, don't be dumbfounded!" Angela reminded the two people who were completely still, "Now we need to evacuate all." Due to the firepower of the other party, most of the labs are civilians, and most of the security guards have already finished their work. , it would be better to evacuate temporarily.

"Immediately!" At this moment, Yu Xi fully understood why Brennan didn't leave, and couldn't leave the bones on the test bench alone. If the battlefield spread here, these bones might be destroyed, but for the case they were investigating, it was very important. trouble.

Yan Yuxi quickly ran to the warehouse next door to bring a few big boxes over, and at special times, he had to keep everything simple, "Angela, help me pack it together!"

"OK."

Due to the limitation of the laboratory space, the skeletons that have been inspected before have been transferred to other places. First, there are still three skeletons left in the laboratory. The three people and the three boxes can be packed quickly. It was "reassembled" again, but the trouble was nothing compared to the possibility of being destroyed.

"Let's go!" In the laboratory, they could already hear the sound of firing. It seems that there are not a few intruders, and the equipment is well-equipped and powerful; what is this for?If it is to kill a person's mouth, how can there be such a big commotion?This is simply not leaving any way out for yourself. Is it necessary to go to this extent?

The three quickly crossed the aisle holding the big cardboard box. What surprised them was that the battle was only separated by a glass door, and they could "appreciate" the scene of the battle while walking.

John Reese and Sameen Shaw?Looking at the equipment of these two people, especially the latter, are they planning to dismantle this place?Could it be done in a slightly "gentle" way?Of course, looking at the tragic environment outside, the other party is not much better, so are you planning to join hands to demolish the house?

Although I really want to know what is going on now, it is obviously impossible for someone who knows the most detailed situation to answer her. As long as they are fighting, then she will be completely safe, right?

"Why did this happen all of a sudden? How could our research here have something to do with those guys?" Angela couldn't help but look at it a few times because she seldom saw such a scene. Status - the tables and chairs were overturned, and there were many bullet marks on the walls and the ground. They just walked a short distance and could see a little bit of the situation. Yan Xi only saw two familiar faces. It is impossible to say how many people were involved in the battle.

Ok?

Who texted her?

Steady the box with one hand, and took out the phone from the pocket with the other free hand to check. The message came from an unknown number, Harold Finch?who?

The general content of the message is to ask her to help open another emergency exit in the underground parking lot and cover John Reese and Sameen Shaw to leave.

Another emergency exit?Seems like it was disabled a long time ago?Why did this man know Jefferson's terrain so well?Regardless of who this person is, it should be Reese's partner; but her question now is how to get over it?How do I open a disabled emergency exit?

How to tell Angela and Brennan to leave is out of consideration, but if you want to go to the parking lot, you need to cross the "Cross Fire Line" and then go underground to get there. Judging from the current distance, Reese and the others are closer there. , with this behind-the-scenes navigation, wouldn't it be fine to go there by yourself?Why bother?

She quickly replied a text message, saying that Yuxixi was not ready to take action for the time being, she didn't like to do things that had no meaning or unclear meaning, so rushing over now was simply courting death.

Due to the serious attack, the security system has been automatically activated, and the underground parking lot has naturally been included in the security guard range. The gate has been completely locked, even if it is disabled, and all vehicles cannot enter and exit; After the evacuation, this side will become a cage, which cannot be entered or exited; only through the unlocking of the security system can all the doors be reopened, but this kind of the most advanced security alarm cannot be disarmed internally. Finally, it is necessary to design the security system at the beginning It can only be unlocked by the double password of the staff and Jefferson's high-level personnel; and Jefferson's security system is naturally not so easy to crack, it should take a long time, and there will be trouble if you don't leave some people.

This... isn't it a little too high for her?According to the plan given to her by the person on the other end of the phone, the feasibility sounds good, but the actual feasibility is undoubtedly low for her—not to mention the front, she needs to go to different places in a short time. There are a series of operations in the local area, and there is a feeling of being out of breath just thinking about it.

Sincerely... I think highly of her!
