Dozens of kilometers away from the ruins of the Grius parking lot, Yongnian Town.
A ten-storey silver-white building surrounded by a coconut grove.
A tall man, wrapped in a gray and white gauze coat with only brown eyes, was approaching the building briskly.
He walked through the hall as if no one was around, ignoring the slight bowing of the security guards and staff passing by him, walked to the elevator, entered, and pressed the ninth floor.
Outside the elevator, two employees who were about to come in were about to enter the door after a few steps, and when they saw the white gauze man standing inside, they immediately retracted their feet and let the elevator door close.
The man in the white gauze seemed to be used to it, and without saying a word, he stared at the floor display.
Soon the ninth floor arrived.
The door opens.
The entire ninth floor is a large lounge.
On the right wall, the gray and black marbled wallcloth is the base, and the blue and black metal is the line, and a neat line of logo is drawn - Ash Real Estate.
In the lounge, there are wine cabinets, billiards, audio-visual game machines, and all kinds of entertainment.
In front of a circle of curved floor-to-ceiling windows, there stood a rickety old man with snow-white hair.
The old man looked out the window at the sea, as if in deep thought.
There was no one else in the entire lounge except for him, so that the huge space was obviously filled with a large number of items, but there was still a lack of life.
The man in white gauze stepped out of the elevator, stepped briskly on the gray carpet, and came behind the old man.
"Someone is investigating the Grius Garage." He spoke up, his voice a little weird, not unpleasant, but too standard. It is a standard to extremely impersonal language pack male voice.
"Garnan has already told me." The old man turned around, revealing a wrinkled face.
His chin has few beards, barely visible, and his skin is like a flesh-colored turtle shell, and many of the wrinkles are more like some kind of crack.
The two eyes are small and somewhat round, but the spirit that reveals them is unusually full and full.
"It's a new company that hasn't been established for a long time, and the registrant is a white star, so I can't find out the details." The man in white gauze replied.
"I wanted them to retreat and understand the sense of proportion." The old man sighed, "It's a pity that people don't care. ”
"You have to make them hurt before you know how to withdraw your hand. Glam can't do it, the means are too gentle. I'll go. The man in white gauze proposed.
"His set is very effective against ordinary people, but this time is different." The old man nodded, "You go, keep your movements clean." The events of that year were finally suppressed and must not be turned out again. ”
"Rest assured, this kind of border, in which year will dozens of people not be missing? There are so many smugglers coming and going, and if you are unlucky, there will be nothing. The white-gauze man removed his veil, revealing an ugly face covered with burn scars. The most terrifying thing is that his entire chin is made of silver-white metal.

A yellow sandy area surrounded by clusters of coconut palms.
On the sand in the center, two yellow vehicles resembling excavators are already working.
Staff members wearing small yellow hats, holding some long pipes that resembled pipes, stood around.
All of them have simple words printed on the back of their shirts.
The humming sound gradually approached from a distance, and soon two vehicles, one large and one small, slowed down and stopped on the sandy side.
On the black car in front, two men got down.
One of these two is tall and burly, the other is well-proportioned, and he is still young. It was Song Ran and Li Chengyi, who had just arrived here.
On a yellow truck in the back, the three little yellow hats who had approached them before also came down.
Li Chengyi got out of the car, and his eyes immediately fell on the black hole in the middle of the sand, which was about five meters long and wide.
The edge of the hole has been reinforced with a special metal material, and the center is pitch black, and I don't know how deep it has been dug.
There are also two long black pipes extending from the edge of the cave, constantly pulling something out.
"Our people have been working here for two days, and when the machine digs underneath, we must have the advice of experts, otherwise we dare not dig casually. The exterior wall of the garage has been touched. "The person in charge of the company in Little Yellow Hat is a middle-aged man with a mustache, who looks very vicissitudes of life and has very dark skin.
"I'm Huang Zhisheng, and I'm in charge of all the excavation work here." He reached out and shook Song Ran and Li Chengyi gently.
"What about Ding Chongyi? Did you give a plan? Song Ran asked concisely.
"She...."Huang Zhisheng pointed to the hole in the center, "It's still below, and he said that he wanted to personally check the soil material at the bottom." ”
"Then wait." Song Ran nodded.
Li Chengyi has no opinion, professional people are responsible for professional things, he just needs to wait for everything to be ready when he comes here.
Now that the scene is not ready, in order to save time, he also needs to do another thing.
That is, to investigate the mysterious boy and test the method of absorbing evil thoughts.
Taking out his phone, he checked the text messages, reading them one by one, and there was no send-by-word from Sindra.
He used to write a photo of the teenager, and now the company's experts are helping to search for the boy's identity, name and other information.
But now it seems that the search is difficult, and there is no response.
Putting away his phone, he exhaled, took out his AR glasses, and gently approached the hole in the center.
"The Grius parking lot was completely buried in the Rez earthquake more than 80 years ago."
A little yellow hat took a few steps closer and gave him a basic explanation.
"The entire parking lot is divided into five floors, all of which are underground, and it is estimated that more than 600 small cars can be parked. The builder is a long-established company called Ash Engineering. However, the strange thing is that not long after the construction of this parking lot, it was limited due to various substandard facilities and could not be used. The little yellow hat whispered.
"Unqualified? Not enabled? Li Chengyi raised his eyebrows, "How can there be casualties in there?" ”
"This is going to talk about the particularity of that era." The little yellow hat raised her head, revealing a beautiful young girl's face, although her skin was a little dark, her eyes were very bright, her pupils were blue, her shoulder-length short hair, and she had a smile on her face, she was a girl who looked very friendly.
"More than 80 years ago, when the border conflict broke out, our country was in civil unstable and oppressed by Shirahoshi, and Grace on the border thought of taking the opportunity to occupy a few small cities here and build a port nearby." The girl said softly.
"There was a riot, and Tiamog was on fire everywhere, and thugs were burning and looting the city with guns, and many people were looking for places to hide.
Grius is located in the middle of nowhere, with ventilation passages leading in all directions, and with a few guns mounted at the door, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. A lot of people went into hiding. ”
"And then there was an earthquake?" Li Cheng was amazed.
"Hmm. Quite a few people died. Some of them escaped, but more were buried. It is estimated that those trapped inside are even more. The little yellow-hatted girl nodded.
Li Chengyi sighed softly, looked at the hole in front of him, was silent, put on AR glasses, he approached the past, and looked down into the depths of the cave.
The entrance of the cave is deep and dark, and if you look carefully, you can only see a place more than ten meters deep, and no matter how deep it is, it will not work.
Li Chengyi frowned slightly, and turned on the AR engineering mode.
Burst.
A miserable white hand slammed into the edge of the hole.
Li Chengyi was taken aback, took a step back, and hurriedly took off his glasses.
But there was nothing on the edge of the cave in front of him, and there were no miserable white hands.
He frowned and glanced at the inexplicable little yellow-hatted girl beside him.
Retract your gaze and re-gaze at the hole.
'Hallucinations?' ’
Picking up the AR, he thought about it and put his glasses back on.
There was nothing in the cave this time, no miserable white hands.
In engineering mode, he turned on the magnification function, night vision function.
The black in the burrow quickly faded and turned a faint gray.
His gaze stretched inward.
Coarse black earth, fixed silver metal frame, the inner walls are coated with some kind of transparent adhesive for coagulation.
Together, the three form this deep cave that leads directly to the ground for more than 200 meters.
After looking at it for a while, the depth was too deep, the light was too dark, and he still couldn't see anything, so Li Chengyi shook his head and left.
He didn't stop, but walked around with Song Ran to check the terrain.
The city of Tiamog is almost 30 kilometres away, so it's not easy to buy anything, and there are no hotels around, only a fishing village two kilometres away.
The two waited on the ground for more than an hour, finally.
In the hole, an old woman covered in mud and wearing an AR camouflage uniform slowly crawled out.
As soon as the little yellow hats around saw it, they immediately went up and helped the old woman out.
"Old Song, meet again, I'm so happy to see you."
This woman looks old, at least sixty years old, her face is full of wrinkles, and her black ponytail hair is also a little gray, although she is dressed very plainly and simply, she still reveals a scholarly temperament.
"I'd be happy if it was someone else, and you forget it." Song Ran replied with a cold face and approached the past.
The two approached slightly, touched their elbows, and looked for the library www.zhaoshuyuan.com This is the social etiquette on Shirahoshi's side, which is equivalent to shaking hands.
"I am accompanying Mr. Li Chengyi to investigate the situation, you can tell him what you find." Song Ran pointed to Li Chengyi, who was approaching behind him.
"Hello." Li Chengyi stretched out his hand in a friendly manner.
"Hello, nice young man, very energetic." Ding Chongyi smiled and shook hands with him.
"Trouble expert Ding to introduce the following situation." Li Chengyi didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the point.
Now it seems that there is nothing that annoys Song Ran. This is a very normal old expert.
"The situation down there is fairly stable, a small part has collapsed, but most of it should be good. I have measured it with a vibration wave detector, and the vertical load-bearing walls are intact. Ding Chongyi explained.
"That is, people can enter?"
"Yes, but it will take time to reinforce the structure." Ding Chongyi nodded, "In addition, before you came, we found some information based on the photos you wrote in profile, you can take a look." ”
As she spoke, she took out a silver memory from the pocket of her coat on her chest and handed it to Li Chengyi.
Li Chengyi took it, pressed the button on the side of the memory, and touched it on the AR.
Suddenly, a large piece of image and text appeared in his field of vision.
It's all about the Grius parking lot and the boy in white.
Li Chengyi swept it carefully and quickly, and his expression became a little solemn.
This document contains detailed findings and speculative analyses from the company's think tanks.
"I couldn't find information about this teenager for too long, but based on the investigation, we found something very interesting." Ding Chongyi said with a smile.
"Plague?" Li Chengyi said in a low voice. This is speculated in the data.
I’m done, the translation bro
