swish swish...
The autumn rain was carried by strong winds, raging through the streets and alleys.
The night owl was lying in front of the window, looking out the window and casually said: "This rain is a bit abnormal, not like autumn rain."
But then she thought about it and smiled again, "It's really nice to huddle up in a warm hut and write in this weather."
Xia Ji said: "Your sister Miaomiao hasn't come back yet."
"Hey, why are you coming back? My family is not here, and I have to report to you..." Xiao Su teased, and then said with a change of expression, "Don't worry, I have already sent a message to ask, and I am still in the meeting."
Xia Jihu said: "Recently, there were reports of disappearances in the suburbs."
"Disappearance case?"
Xiao Su was stunned, "Why didn't I know?"
Xia Jidao: "You usually only code words. You don't care about other information. Just search online."
Xiao Su hurriedly opened the somewhat old laptop and started typing.
Suddenly, the corresponding news column popped up in the search bar.
Xiao Su continued: "Yesterday, a disappearance case occurred on Tianyun Avenue in the eastern suburbs of Haishi. The missing woman was an employee of Qingshan Company. After investigation, it was found that the woman returned to the company at night to handle urgent emails. The company security saw the woman at nine o'clock in the evening. The woman saw the woman leaving the company at 11 o'clock in the evening, and then lost contact."
After reading it, Xiao Su hurriedly turned over...
After flipping through several pages, although many websites were reporting repeatedly, she could see that there was more than one "disappearance case" at all, and it had already happened three times in just one week.
"Where is Qingshan Company?"
Xiao Su murmured and searched hurriedly.
After searching, she screamed: "It's not far from Canyue Biotechnology... Sister Miaomiao is having a meeting at Canyue Biotechnology. It's already eight o'clock. No... I'll call her and ask her."
Xiao Su suddenly became nervous. After all, she already regarded Miaomiao as her sister-in-law.
She hurriedly dialed her cell phone.
The music ringtone on the other side of the phone rang, a classical-style tune.
After waiting for almost a minute, no one answered, and the phone automatically hung up.
"No way… "
Xiao Su continued to dial.
Dial like crazy.
Then the phone was disconnected after not answering the call three times.
A cold voice came from Xiaosu's cell phone.
"The number you have dial can not be reached… "
Xiao Su's face was pale, he looked sideways at Xia Ji, and said bitterly, "But... maybe the battery just ran out?"
After saying this, her eyes were almost red, "What should we do, brother, what should we do? Call the police... But what if Sister Miaomiao is just having a meeting?"
Xia Ji looked out the window at Qiu Yu and said, "I'll take a taxi to the Cangyue Biotechnology Company to find her."
Xiao Su immediately said: "I'll go with you!"
"Aren't you going to code tonight?"
"There are manuscripts on file."
Xia Ji stood up and grabbed a knife directly from the bed.
Xiao Su was startled.
Xia Jidao: "I bought it online. I have been exercising recently and I need a knife, which is not sharpened."
As he spoke, he put the knife into a painting tube, so that it would not be strange when walking on the street. Others would only think that he was carrying a painting, but not that he was carrying a knife.
Xiao Su also grabbed a fruit knife and put it in her bag. After briefly talking to Su's mother, she hurriedly started to take a taxi through the app.
Not long after…
A black car parked in front of their community.
Xiao Su saw the taxi's license plate number and pulled Xia Ji into the car.
The driver was unexpectedly a very strong man. When he saw the two of them, he smiled slightly, showing his strong teeth, and then asked in a confirming manner: "Are you two going to Cangyue Biotechnology?"
…
…
At this time, in the conference room on the ninth floor of Cangyue Biotechnology, the meeting was almost coming to an end.
The voice of the mighty white-haired old man came from the front.
"The experimental target numbered 007 may have taken the lead in reaching a higher level of life in Argot's life conjecture...
Even if not, he has probably noticed the difference in himself and is working hard to change and improve his strength in order to break through... the elemental gene lock. "
After he finished speaking, the eyes of everyone sitting down shone with a strange luster, as if they were sighing that the "Elemental Gene Lock" really existed.
The mighty white-haired old man continued: "Target No. 007 will be positioned as an S-class dangerous person, but for the benefit of all mankind, he must be studied. This is the purpose of my coming here.
This kind of research is not closed research, but open research.
The research process is divided into internal and external, and we will conduct the external in order to test various data on his body and abilities.
The internal matters are left to Dr. Lu. "
Having said this, the white-haired old man paused for a moment and asked in a cold voice: "Is it okay? Dr. Lu?"
Lu Miaomiao suddenly raised her head. Although she was scared in her heart, although her hands had nervously clenched the small pockets on both sides of her windbreaker, and although her palms were all covered with sweat, she still gritted her teeth and asked under this strong aura: " I went to tell him... He will definitely cooperate with the examination, blood drawing, laboratory tests, anything."
Before she finished speaking, she heard a mocking snort.
"madness!!"
The white-haired old man slapped his hands on the wooden table and leaned forward, "Don't you understand yet? His seventeen-year coma was due to the implantation of an experimental vaccine!
In addition, what we need is not boring tricks like blood tests, but to see how ferocious this lion is and how powerful its potential is... After all... "
He took a deep breath, raised his head, with a happy look on his face, and said with great piety, "This is the future of mankind."
Miaomiao said: "Seventeen years ago..."
"He was selected and became one of thirty thousand experimental subjects, and then he was the only one to wake up."
Miaomiao suddenly understood, then she shuddered and said: "You are..."
The white-haired old man raised his hand and showed an ID.
Miaomiao knew clearly what this certificate represented, and on the certificate... the identity of the white-haired old man turned out to be a lieutenant general! !
Miaomiao hurriedly said: "Lieutenant General, I think he will cooperate with us well. He will not want to commit crimes, he will not want to destroy, he..."
The white-haired old man said calmly: "Doctor Lu, it seems you still don't understand anything."
He closed his eyes for a long time and then opened them again, showing a cold smile, "Then just carry out your mission properly. If you violate it, it will be treason."
Miaomiao:…
After a long time, she sighed and asked, "What will happen to him in the end?"
The coldness on the white-haired old man's face suddenly turned into a dangerous smile, and he said lightly: "Of course you will become one of us, so please don't worry."
Miaomiao:…
The woman's intuition allowed her to judge almost instantly that the old man in front of her was lying.
But she still said: "I understand."
…
…
"Fare, forty-four."
The strong driver's eyes flashed coldly, and he turned his head and reported the fare behind him.
The car has stopped in front of the "Crane Moon Biotechnology Company".
Xiao Su scanned his phone and made an electronic payment directly. Then Xia Ji opened the door and walked out with a "painting tube" on his back. Then he stood in front of the door holding a black umbrella. After Xiao Su walked out, he Take the door up with you.
The car did not go far, but drove dozens of meters away and stopped at an empty parking space not far away.
Click, click, click…
The autumn rain hit the black umbrella coldly, jumping up and down.
Xiao Su looked up at this, which can be said to be the tallest building in Hai City, and said worriedly: "It's already half past nine in the evening, and I don't know if Sister Miaomiao is still here. Brother... let's go and ask."
Xia Ji raised his head, looked at the bright light on the ninth floor of the building, then looked at a meeting sign in front of the building, and said calmly: "She should still be in a meeting."
Xiao Su said speechlessly: "What kind of company is it? Really, I haven't seen how much money Sister Miaomiao gets... No, I still have to ask."
Thinking about it, she ran to the security office and knocked on the window and said: "Hello, I am a member of Dr. Lu Miaomiao's family. Seeing that she hasn't come back yet and her phone has been turned off, I came here to have a look... Excuse me Is Lu Miaomiao still having a meeting upstairs?"
When the security guard saw that it was a little girl, he said, "Yes, Dr. Lu is still in a meeting. He is too busy at this time. You can wait a little longer. It should be over soon."
Although Xia Ji still gets headaches easily, there is a strange feeling of detachment in his heart at this time.
It seems that I feel like I can't blend in with normal humans. If it weren't for Xiaosu, Miaomiao, or someone else...
Even if they are relatives, he will feel unfamiliar.
However, nothing can be proven now, and the source of the black tide and calamity, whether it is true or false, is unknown.
"Knowledge... As long as you become stronger quickly through this knowledge, then as the shackles of the body are slowly released, everything should be revealed."
Xia Ji glanced at the distance and saw Xiao Su kicking her legs in the autumn wind. Her boots made a squeaking sound on the ground. Her hands were intertwined and their palms were rubbing together. It was obvious that the late autumn weather was falling. It was quite chilly on a rainy night.
Xiao Su seemed to notice Xia Ji's gaze and smiled at him.
Xia Ji withdrew his gaze. It was difficult to distinguish between true and false, false and true, but this was not an illusion.
If he is really the person who once fought against Heavenly Dao, then such an impeccable illusion cannot exist in this world, and neither Heavenly Dao can.
Then, these people are all real.
In other words, this is the earth star that I traveled through.
Suddenly, the name of a community popped into his mind... It was the community where his family lived before he crossed over - Tianjing Family.
It seems to be room 304 in building eight.
“Got to see it, a name like that doesn’t just pop into my head for no reason.”
While he was thinking about it, the lights in the conference room on the ninth floor of Cangyue Biotechnology began to go out.
Xia Ji raised his head and saw a scarlet moon symbol in the middle of the building, like a monster's grinning bloody mouth.
Immediately afterwards, a group of men and women in suits or with a strong professional atmosphere walked out of the hall in the distance.
When Xia Ji looked at these people, those people were also looking at him, with something strange in their eyes.
Xia Ji felt calm, but he had smelled something unusual.
Soon, he saw Lu Miaomiao walking behind.
Lu Miaomiao forced a smile when she saw him, and then ran over from a distance as if she had been wronged. Xia Ji opened his arms and hugged the woman who rushed into his arms tightly.
At the same time, he raised his head and saw a dark shadow looking down at him in the darkness on the ninth floor, seemingly smiling.
Xia Ji also smiled.
interesting.
He took a deep breath and smelled the smell of blood all over the city.
Lu Miaomiao was speechless, she just kept shouting "Xia Ji, Xia Ji"...
Xia Ji didn't ask her either. Asking many things was just to embarrass others. He already knew it, so he held Miao Miao in his arms and said softly: "I'm here."
A gentleman can deceive someone in the right way, but it is difficult for him to ignore the wrong way.
…
…
That night, Miaomiao called home and then slept directly at Xia Ji's house. She had nightmares in the middle of the night and woke up several times.
The next day…
She woke up with a bad look on her face and saw Xia Ji standing in front of the balcony, looking at the autumn leaves outside the window in trance.
Miaomiao was about to say something when her cell phone suddenly beeped and it was a message.
She took a look and looked a little bad, but after taking a deep breath, she walked to the window and stood side by side with Xia Ji, and then said: "Wu Feibai sent a message saying that he wanted everyone to It's a gathering of old classmates. He saw you last night and invited you to join him."
"Wu Feibai?"
Xia Ji thought for a while, and he remembered Miaomiao said that this person was his former classmate, and he just returned to China, so he was also in a meeting last night.
Miaomiao pulled his hand, her palm was cold, and she whispered, "Xia Ji, let's go together."
Xia Ji looked at her gently and said, "No."
"Xia Ji..."
"I felt like something happened."
Miaomiao:…
Suddenly an impulse surged in her heart, and she didn't want to hide the man in front of her.
This man died for her once, now he wants to suffer for her again
So, she opened her mouth and said directly: "Actually..."
Before she could say anything, she was kissed deeply by Xia Ji. Their lips touched each other, and she could no longer speak.
It was a long kiss.
A kiss that makes you unable to breathe.
Xia Ji let go of the hand that lifted Miaomiao's chin and said gently: "Don't say anything."
"Can… "
"Don't say it."
Lu Miaomiao was not stupid. She suddenly thought of what the lieutenant general said and immediately thought, "The man in front of me may have noticed his own superhuman strength and felt that he could solve the problem with his own strength." She hurriedly said: "No, I It must be said.
Immediately afterwards, while walking back, she said very quickly: "Xia Ji, the reason why you fainted seventeen years ago was because someone implanted something called Argot Life Test Liquid... There are three people in the world. Thousands of people were implanted, but only you survived.
In other words, you are likely to have reached a breakthrough in the life level, and will gradually possess stronger power. It is also possible to unlock the elemental gene lock in the great speculation and become a being far beyond ordinary people.
Now you have been numbered 007, the crisis level is S level, and they want me to monitor you at all times and tell them your situation. On the other side, they will force you to commit crimes, keep committing crimes, and then chase and counter-hunt you to test how far you can go in order to obtain more detailed data.
Finally, when you've finished the test, they arrest you and put you on the autopsy table..."
Xia Ji suddenly pounced towards Miaomiao and pressed her down directly, and at this moment... a trembling voice ripped through the air with a low roar, passing between Miaomiao's eyebrows just now.
Bang! ! !
A circle of cracks suddenly appeared on the wall behind the two people, and in the crack was a bullet.
This bullet directly proved that everything Miaomiao said was true.
It has even cut off all Xia Ji's escape routes.
When he looked at Miaomiao, Miaomiao's face was pale and her pupils were wide open. It was obvious that she had not escaped from death, and then she began to breathe heavily.
There was no gunshot, obviously a silencer was installed.
Only when the bullet is approaching will you hear the buzzing sound of death.
Xia Ji turned his eyes and suddenly pulled the panting Miaomiao to the side.
As soon as she moved, the wall where Miao Miao was originally shattered and a bullet hole appeared, and the bullet penetrated the wall and hit her original position.
Xia Ji looked up and saw a cold light flashing on a tall building in the distance, and then disappeared without a trace. It was obvious that the sniper had retreated.
These two shots... were not meant to kill Miaomiao, but to test my own abilities, and at the same time tell myself, "I came here so clearly, what can you do? Is there any difference between you knowing it and you not knowing it?"
Xia Ji raised his head...
He breathed a sigh of relief.
This time, it seemed that... even the power he received in his dream had a reasonable explanation.
Moreover, the murderous intention has arrived.
