Bionic Era

Chapter 43: One person's drama

Views:

A human head with several robotic legs runs wildly through the streets.

This horrifying scene happened in District 12.

It used sewers to escape.

When he emerged from another exit of the sewer, he happened to be bumped into by Lu Wen and Xia Chuluo, as if everything had been arranged.

So a chase began.

"Oh, I can always come up with new tricks when committing crimes involving androids." Xia Chuluo looked out the window.

"I suggest you move your legs off the center console. It's very unsafe." Lu Wen reminded while chasing the head of the running person in front.

"Unsafe? More unsafe than without a seat belt?"

“…”

The spider-like head suddenly stopped at an intersection and turned around.

The pair of dead gray eyes turned around, as if they were observing something.

Soon, he ran in the other direction.

"Do you feel that he is deliberately tempting us?"

Lu Wen said.

"Any fool can see that."

"Continue to chase?"

"Um."

Xia Chuluo is obviously not afraid of death.

It's a pity that it's always just her assistant who dies.

More than ten minutes later.

The spider ran into an abandoned building.

There is lush grass downstairs, and the gray-black building is covered with weeds and withered vines. It is quiet and no one comes here.

"Where did this city come from with so many abandoned buildings?"

Lu Wen couldn't help but complain.

A decaying wall surrounded the entire building. It looked like it was almost completed, but there was nothing more to say about it, so it was just abandoned.

Previously, two of the three people who died at Landi Construction were dragged to the abandoned construction site and had cement poured on them.

And there are many such abandoned construction sites in this city.

"The thing about money is wonderful."

Xia Chuluo raised the corners of his mouth slightly, put his hands behind his back, and stepped into the dense weeds step by step.

She obviously knew something, but she didn't tell Lu Wen.

There was no blood dripping from that head.

As if afraid that the two of them would not be able to find him, the head was deliberately stained with some mud, leaving traces in the deserted building.

"Crack!"

As soon as I entered the main entrance of the building, I stepped on a piece of ground.

Due to issues such as material ratio, ambient temperature, water collection, etc., this kind of concrete is easy to shell.

Looking around, the whole building looks like this.

It's a little dark inside the building.

Even though it was daytime, the view was still not very good.

Green-gray concrete pieces fell on the ground, spider webs were formed in the corners of the walls, and some weeds survived tenaciously in these places with little sunlight.

The dust was so heavy that one step left a footprint, and with the mud, it was easy to deduce the traces of the head.

"be prepared."

Xia Chuluo reminded her, but she still looked confident.

Following the traces to the second floor, it was still empty.

There are some reserved window positions at the edge of the floor, allowing sunlight to shine in, while the middle of the floor and beyond are completely dark.

Most human fears originate from the unknown. Dark phobia, claustrophobia and the so-called deep sea phobia are mostly based on the same principle.

They fear that there is some kind of monster hiding in the unknown.

"It's still going up."

Lu Wen walked in front, blocking half of Xia Chuluo's body.

Continue upward along the gray shelled concrete stairs.

A horrifying scene appeared in front of the two people.

On the entire third floor, various androids stood quietly in the dim light.

They were like unconscious dolls, with numb eyes open, and they all turned to look at the two of them.

Lu Wen felt as if he was being looked at by countless cold corpses at the same time, and his scalp was numb.

"I probably know why your former assistants were so short-lived," he whispered.

It was obvious that the boss wanted to lure them to the base camp. Xia Chuluo didn't panic. Even though he saw it, he still followed him.

The head with six mechanical legs was in the middle of the dead third floor.

He fell to the ground, limp, and his eyes were closed.

The feeling of complete death.

"It's a little different from what I thought."

Xia Chuluo frowned and moved forward step by step.

The androids here have not been modified and have no human limbs.

She had previously felt that the so-called Zero was also involved in the subsequent Li Jian incident.

Since No. 0 can participate in No. 1 Li Jian's case, he is naturally very likely to participate in the other Li Jian cases. After all, No. 0's target may be Lu Wen.

Xia Chuluo walked through the passage among countless androids and came to the head.

"That's it?"

She pulled out the gun from her waist and kicked the man in the head.

No response.

Xia Chuluo suddenly felt something strange, too quiet.

There is no sound of footsteps beside me.

Lu Wen was out of character.

Didn't follow

"No, these androids can scare you?"

She turned around slowly.

The expression on his face was stagnant.

greet her.

Just the cold muzzle.

Lu Wen didn't know when he raised the gun in his hand, his face expressionless and his eyes dull.

"boom!"

The sound of gunshots echoed through the dark and silent building.

For a long time.

One shot hit the center of his body, and blood spattered.

"you… "

Xia Chuluo held his chest with difficulty, stumbled back a few steps, fell heavily, and his body smashed into a cloud of dust on the concrete floor.

If the heart is shot and penetrated, the brain will be deprived of oxygen in a very short period of time.

Lu Wennum took back the gun in his hand.

Looks indifferent.

There is no emotion at all.

As if being controlled.

There were clapping sounds in the darkness.

"Crack! Crack! Crack!"

The sense of déjà vu when the villain appears in the movie.

What followed was the sound of footsteps, a person's footsteps.

very young.

He is in his twenties, tall and thin, with yellowish skin, wearing black-rimmed glasses and wearing casual clothes.

"Looks like I'm going to disappoint that man. You don't have the kind of control system he mentioned in your body." The man smiled faintly and ignored Xia Chuluo, who was lying on the ground.

He walked straight to Lu Wen.

"I just can't figure it out. I've made the details very obvious, but you just can't think of it. Why?"

He suddenly stopped smiling.

It looks a little irritable and moody.

Walking around among the androids.

"Why?!"

he asked again.

"Why, no one has ever come to ask me why I bought that body armor?"

"Isn't Xia Chuluo very smart? Why didn't she think of this?"

"I released a few bionic cats last night just to remind you of bionic creatures and make you think of bionic sharks. Why don't you still think of them?"

"All the broken bones of Uncle Li Jian are from his right arm, or does no one doubt it?"

"Do you really believe he is dead?"

"Why couldn't he have faked his own death?"

He suddenly laughed again, his body trembling.

It looks a little abnormal.

"Did I overestimate your IQ?"

"I'm the only one acting from the beginning to the end? Calculating?"
