"Why are there so many cars today?" Li Chengyi asked as he watched the taxi being blocked and walked slower and slower, and pressed his nerves.

He's a little more relaxed now, much better than before.

Breaking away from the dead end and constantly contacting the real world, he also slowly recovered some of his depressed mood.

"Oh, it was a few days ago, it's the Imperial College of Technology, don't you know?" said the master very naturally.

"Imperial College London?"

"Well, it was said that someone carried out a terrorist attack, stormed the school to make a suicide bomb, and was caught from above, but several still died. The master briefly introduced a few words.

"There are also people in Suiyang who go to school over there, and this car is estimated to pick up people from there. But.... Didn't you say that only two died?"

The master looked at the white flower funeral car in front of him with some muttering.

From their point of view, there were at least four different models of cars hanging white cloth on the road ahead.

"Maybe it's a family's car?" Li Chengyi said.

"Well, maybe. The official announcement said that it was a terrorist organization called Ideal Township, which spread on the Internet and organized human personnel to carry it out, and now the General Security Administration has begun to conduct a comprehensive wanted investigation on Ideal Township. The master said in a relaxed tone. Apparently there is a lot of trust in the official.

"Don't look at our country, although it is lifeless, but in terms of security, it is nothing, what an ideal country is, or it will not be long before it will be served in a pot. Unlike Shirahoshi, there is a lot of mess every day, and even parliamentarians can be shot and killed at home, which is too dangerous. ”

Li Chengyi didn't make an evaluation, but just echoed a few words.

The car quickly passed the red light and drove forward for a few minutes before arriving at the New Century Building.

At this time, the sky was dark, but the building was brightly lit, and the flow of passengers in and out was endless, and some of the singing and roaring could be faintly heard.

Li Chengyi got out of the car, paid the money, and turned a corner from the right side of the car to the entrance of the building.

Step into the side hall and press the elevator button.

Without waiting for the elevator to come down, a few people walked in quickly at the door of the small hall.

Sindra and two burly black T-shirt bodyguards walked in quickly, and saw Li Chengyi at a glance.

He smells of alcohol and wears a pair of brown AR glasses on his eyes.

Taking off the AR, Sindra gestured, and suddenly the two bodyguards behind him stepped back and scattered, guarding the front and back of possible people.

He approached by himself, stood beside Li Chengyi, and made a gesture of waiting for the elevator together.

"She's dead?"

There was no beginning or end to what he said, but Li Chengyi understood what he meant.

This she refers to Meng Dongdong.

"Dead. "Li Chengyi didn't kill Meng Dongdong in the end, just to use her to delay the monster's time and prolong his time in the dead corner.

In the end, his goal was achieved.

This is the first time he has done this, using human life as a prop to achieve his own goals.

"Are you uncomfortable?" asked Sindra softly.

叮.

The elevator arrived, and the silver-white metal door slowly parted.

The two entered one after the other, pressing the floor, nineteen.

The ventilation fan overhead whined, and there were projection advertisements on both sides of the elevator, constantly playing repeated animations of beautiful women.

The red, green, and green light illuminated their faces like paint plates.

"It's just a little stuffy. Li Chengyi replied.

"Just get used to it. Sindra said, his eyes fixed on the ever-changing numbers of red floors.

"The first time I was, I was just like you. After I was done, I felt different, I couldn't go back, I was afraid of being discovered, I was afraid of something inexplicable, I was afraid of being caught, I was afraid of a lot. ”

"How did you adjust it back?" asked Li Chengyi.

"Understand the rules and then adapt. Sindra smiled.

叮.

The elevator doors opened.

Outside, it's a quiet company hall.

None of the staff who worked here during the day are now there. Only the security lights on the wall flickered and emitted a green light, indicating that the air and temperature here were normal.

Sindra was the first to walk out, and instead of entering the office, she walked to the side of the hall, pressed the button in front of the coffee machine, and took a cup of coffee from a disposable cup.

"Added sugar?"

"Thanks, no. Li Chengyi walked behind him, a little unclear, shouldn't the most urgent thing now be to arrange a profiler for him immediately?

"Have a drink, don't rush. Sindra handed him the coffee, smiled, and took another cup for herself.

Li Chengyi took it, added sugar packets and milk packets by himself, and gently stirred them with a stirring stick.

He took a sip of his mouth.

It's amazing.

It is obviously the cheapest instant coffee, but when I drink it in my mouth, it feels very soft and comfortable.

"Now, what did you encounter in there, what did you find?" said Syndra.

"Profiler...."

"Ready to connect, start now?"

"Well, right away, I'm worried that I'll forget. Li Chengyi tried to recall in his mind the face and signs of the young man he had just seen.

It's amazing, now that he has calmed down, he remembers the scene just now more clearly.

"Got it?" Sindra laughed, "It's true that the sooner you record the better, but if you want to not miss any details, you need to be calm. Emotions can make people miss a lot of confusion. ”

"Thank you. Li Chengyi nodded, and at this time, he completely calmed down, and began to carefully describe the appearance and characteristics of the young man in white.

Face shape, race, skin color, eye and eyebrow shape, etc., all kinds of details, are all said.

He then waited for the synthesis to be compared one by one until he identified the closest portrait.

After the description was completed, the two entered the office.

Sindra took out her previous projection flashlight and projected them one by one into a painted portrait.

After more than 30 strokes in a row, Li Chengyi suddenly shouted to stop.

"This is it!" he said, gesturing to the portrait on the wall.

On the screen, a curly-haired teenager wearing a tube of white pajamas is standing quietly at the door of a small red door.

He looked to be about eleven or twelve years old, with brown and black hair and very white skin, a sickly unhealthy white.

The eyes are pitch black, and the eye sockets are also black, and it seems that it is not good to rest for a long time.

The whole of the other looked very thin, his expression was blank, and his lips were black and slightly open.

"Are you sure?"

"Sure!"

Sindra took a closer look at the portrait.

"It seems that you have found the key clue. The child looked like a Florean, perhaps mixed with Yiguo blood. And the address where we found the Grius parking lot is that it is mainly inhabited by Flores. ”

"Will there still be people in the dead end? This time I found that the speed of the monster inside is much, much faster than before. Li Chengyi asked seriously.

"Not necessarily, but there are too many dead ends, and no one knows how many there are in this world, so it is spread evenly, most of the people who enter the dead spots are alone most of the time, and occasionally they will meet the rest of the people who enter together. Just like you. The first time was when three people went in together, which was rare. Sindra explained.

He took out his phone, quickly sent a few messages, and then looked up again. "What about that crack, any clues?"

"No, before I had time to go into the depths, I met this guy. Li Chengyi pointed to the projected boy.

"You're not in the right time, it's only been a month and a half and you've gone in again, something must have caused this change. You look back and think about it. Sindra paused, "Also, in order to avoid cutting the time again next time, you must go to the on-site address of the Grius parking lot as soon as possible. ”

"I'll tell my family tomorrow, can I leave tomorrow?" Li Chengyi also knew that the situation was urgent, so he made a decision immediately.

"Yes, after you go over there, follow the portrait of this young man to find information, and wait for the excavation work to go deeper. I will arrange someone to accompany you. Sindra replied.

"Good. ”

After leaving the company, Li Chengyi took a taxi home directly, touching the holster on his waist from time to time.

Meng Dongdong's last painful expression kept coming to mind.

And the human leg that hung from the corner of the monster's face.

A cup of cheap coffee for a few dollars at most magically calmed him down completely at this time.

It's just inexplicable, in the case that he himself didn't pay attention. Something is slowly starting to change.

Soon the community arrived.

Li Chengyi opened the door to pay, got out of the car, and then stood at the gate of the community.

He didn't go in for a long time, but just stood on the edge of the green belt at the door, thinking about how to talk to his family.

You have to show that you have found a job, and then you have to go on a business trip tomorrow...

"Li Chengyi. Suddenly, under the street lamp not far away, a figure approached quickly on the sidewalk.

She was a slender young woman, tied in a ponytail, dressed in a white slim tracksuit, and wearing a headset around her neck that she had just taken off.

Lin Sang.

Li Chengyi recognized the person at a glance.

"Still running at night so late?"

"It's only eight o'clock, isn't it too late to find the www.zhaoshuyuan.com of the Academy?" Lin Sang retorted, his big eyes squinting slightly, looking up and down at this friend he hadn't seen for a long time.

She and Li Chengyi and Chen Xudong have been playmates for ten years.

Look at Li Chengyi recently, it is obvious that she is slowly alienating her. Even when I asked Chen Xudong, I got the same answer.

She didn't know where she had provoked him, and if she happened to meet him today, she had to ask clearly.

Ten years of friendship will not be said to be light.

"Why don't you come to exercise together recently? Dongzi called you not to come, and looked for you several times. I can't find you either, what do you mean?" Lin Sang suppressed his temper, but his tone was still a little dissatisfied.

"It's fine. It's just that a lot has happened lately, and I've got a job and I'm a little busy. Li Chengyi said calmly.

The predecessor liked Lin Sang a little bit in his memory, but he really, really couldn't pretend to feel that way.

"It's okay if you're busy with work...."Lin Sang didn't finish his words, but was interrupted by Li Chengyi.

"I'm sorry, but what else do you do? I'm tired from work and want to go back to rest. Li Chengyi raised his hand and looked at the time, and said coldly.

"Hey, Li Chengyi, what is your attitude?" Lin Sang stepped forward, wanting to reach out and grab the other party's arm as before.

But for some reason, as soon as she got closer, and when she saw the other party's calm pupils, her whole body suddenly cooled, her footsteps stopped, and she didn't dare to stretch out her raised hand.

"Go back, you should go back early after your workout, it's dark outside, it's not safe. Li Chengyi admonished, turned around and walked into the community.

Lin Sang looked at him from behind, and suddenly felt that his previous well-proportioned body seemed to have become stronger.

And just now, that inexplicable cold temperament....
