At the end of the secret passage is a sewer that discharges sewage, a very wide one. There was a box prepared in advance at the entrance. Xia Lei put Scarlett down and opened the box.
Inside the box was a quick set of clothes, rain boots, and another human skin mask that had been made in advance.
It took Xia Lei two minutes to get everything done. He looked at the entrance to the sewer, and then at the unconscious Scarlett. He sighed, "Trouble, women are really troublesome."
Abandon her and walk away
He had already made this decision long ago, but he brought Scarlett here. Isn't this his choice? He chose trouble.
"Xiaoqian, what's going on outside?" Xia Lei reached out and clicked the touch screen button to wake up Xiaoqian on the smart watch on his left wrist.
A three-dimensional image instantly appeared in the void. Xiaoqian appeared this time wearing a fireman's outfit, with a pair of anti-thorn rain boots covering her knees. What's even more exaggerated is that it also wears a mask on its face. There was also a funny avatar printed on the mask, which was light yellow and very eye-catching.
Looking at this outfit, it seems that he is always paying attention to the progress of the incident. The rain boots are for wading in the water, and the mask is for odor protection. There's nothing wrong with that, but what the hell is it doing with a funny face on the mask
"Master, thank you for your summons. Your Xiaoqian is ready to fight!" Xiaoqian is very excited every time she comes out, and this time is no exception.
Xia Lei endured the messy feeling and asked, "What's going on outside?"
A new three-dimensional projection appeared in the void, which was a satellite surveillance picture. The entire New York has been sealed off, with hundreds of armed helicopters circling in the sky, as well as Global Hawks and fighter jets. On the ground, there are National Guard soldiers on every street to check pedestrians and vehicles, as well as police, special forces and CI agents. Just from this scene, the whole of New York is simply a huge cage, and it is impossible to escape.
Suddenly, countless funny heads appeared in the three-dimensional projection. They form a channel leading to the Atlantic coast.
Xia Lei was stunned for a moment, "What is this?"
"Funny plan." Xiaoqian held her head high and a baton appeared in her hand. She pointed at the funny avatar nearby and said: "This is our exit. The monitoring system there has been invaded by me. We can Walking out in a big way, no surveillance camera can capture it." Then she passed the baton through the funny portraits one after another, "I have arranged for at least twenty more vehicles to be on standby along the way, and there is also a luxury yacht on standby on the beach. .Master, this is my funny plan."
Xia Lei shrugged, "Then start your funny plan."
"What should I do with this woman? She is not in my plan." While speaking, Xiaoqian stepped on Scarlett's too-high breasts with her feet wearing rain boots, but her feet were not real. Rei wouldn't feel anything.
Xia Lei pretended not to see it, "I have to take her away."
"I knew it was a hero saving the beauty again." Xiaoqian said.
Xia Lei, "..."
"Master, I have planned the route, please follow me." Xiaoqian passed through the entrance of the sewer, and then said something else, "Oh, it's still dirty. I want to use your bathroom to take a shower when I get back." .”
Xia Lei picked up Scarlett speechlessly, and then also entered the sewer.
The water in the sewer is not very deep, but it is very smelly. It has the smell of uric acid mixed with the smell of decay, which is very pungent.
Xia Lei controlled his breathing to the minimum level.
"Cough cough cough..." Not far away, Scarlett in Xia Lei's arms suddenly choked and woke up, coughing violently.
When Xia Lei knocked her out just now, he didn't hit her too hard. She wouldn't be unconscious for a long time, and the pungent smell in the sewer stimulated her and she woke up.
Xia Lei suddenly remembered something and put the coat that was wet on her chest over her mouth and nose. And for this action, he didn't move the hand holding her at all, but used energy roots to complete it.
"You actually knocked me out?" After taking a breath, Scarlett also remembered what happened just now.
"So what?" Xia Lei said.
"Where are we?"
"In a sewer."
"I just knew this was the plot. You knock me out and then take me to escape from the sewer." Scarlett was very excited, and then she saw the fluorescent Xiaoqian again. She suddenly opened her mouth wide, "Who is she?" ?”
"Miss Funny." Xiaoqian said, and then turned into a huge Funny.
An energy root penetrated into Scarlett's brain, and she passed out again the next second.
At this moment, Xia Lei really wanted to throw her in the sewer and run away.
A quarter of an hour later, Xia Lei climbed out of a manhole cover in the parking lot of a building. He threw Scarlett into the trunk of a car and got into the car. The car automatically started the engine, and he drove the car out of the underground parking lot.
As Xiaoqian showed, the street outside the building was full of National Guard soldiers, police, agents and special forces patrolling and searching. The whole of New York was enveloped in a tense atmosphere of approaching danger.
Xia Lei drove directly to a checkpoint.
A National Guardsman glanced at him and compared the photos on the tablet in his hand.
Xia Lei discovered that the tablet contained not only his photos, but also Scarlett's photos. Sure enough, curiosity killed the cat, and she became a wanted person.
"Where do you plan to go, sir?" asked the National Guard soldier.
Xia Lei said in Japanese: "I want to see the Statue of Liberty. Is there any problem?"
"What did you say?"
Xia Lei made a gesture of holding a torch, "The Statue of Liberty."
As he spoke, another National Guard soldier scanned the sedan's trunk with a scanner.
Xia Lei became a little nervous. If Xiaoqian failed to hack the scanner, once it was discovered that there was a person hiding in the trunk, he could find a way out at any time, but Scarlett would be in huge trouble. among.
But his worries are unnecessary. Xiaoqian is the strongest artificial intelligence in the world. Even in New York, it can directly crush the God system. It is equivalent to the "canopy" of this world. If it fails to deal with a small scanner, the joke will be big.
Sure enough, the National Guard soldier who scanned the trunk nodded to the soldier who asked about Xia Lei, indicating that there was no problem.
"Let's go and pass quickly." The National Guard soldier who asked Xia Lei said, and then waved his hand to call for the next car to come over for inspection.
Xia Lei kicked the accelerator and watched the "funny route" drive away.
Half an hour later, a luxury yacht left a commercial dock and sailed toward the depths of the Atlantic Ocean.
In the cab, Xiaoqian said: "Master, the route has been determined. We will reach our destination in five hours."
"Very good, your plan is good." Xia Lei said, "When you arrive at your destination, return to your first form and wait for my instructions."
"Yes, Master." Xiaoqian looked very obedient.
The first form is the form lurking in the online world, and the second form is the current form that appears as a virtual image. There will be a third form in the future, and that will be Haofang's form with a machine body. But Xia Lei was hesitating, should he give it an above-ground form when it left the earth
If Xiaoqian can follow him to the Star of Hope world, or if Haofang can follow him back to the earth world, two super artificial intelligences will meet, Xiaoqian who loves to act coquettishly and seduce people, and Haofang who is super foul-mouthed and shameless. What kind of sparks will be created? This is really hard to guess.
This sudden thought made Xia Lei interesting and a little moved. He said: "Xiao Qian, protect my wife, children, and my friends. I will give you a real body later."
"Wow! I knew the master would give me a third form. I want a silicone skin shell and an X-alloy skeleton. I want to become a woman like Delores in Westworld!" Xiaoqian suddenly became excited. It jumped, a surging wave rising from its virtual chest.
"Silicone shell?" Xia Lei had a strange expression on his face, "What do you want that thing for?"
"I want it, it looks good." Xiaoqian started acting coquettishly again.
Xia Lei felt that he had shot himself in the foot. It was so seductive now, so what if it had a realistic body
But at this moment, Xiaoqian suddenly put away her coquettish attitude, and her expression instantly became serious, "Master, there is another call from an unknown source. Do you want to answer it?"
"Take it." Xia Lei's expression also became serious.
The speaker system of the smart watch soon came out with an insidious voice, "Breathe"
Xia Lei frowned, "Stop breathing, you're not breathing at all."
"You turned New York into a mess and then walked away." Cassia Ruiz's voice.
"So what? You can stop me." Xia Lei said coldly.
"Even if you burn New York to the ground, it's none of my business." Cassia Ruiz's voice said, "I'm just calling you to ask you one thing. Is the information about that fragment true? "
He really came for the fragment.
Xia Lei said: "I asked you to meet in New York, but you didn't even dare to show your face. How dare you ask me to verify the authenticity of that information?"
"You don't know it yourself, do you? You want to use this information to lure Isitabu and I out, right?"
"Whatever you think is what it is, why bother asking me?"
"I won't be fooled by you. Also, as more and more information comes out about you, I am beginning to doubt who you are and your motives." Cassia Ruiz's voice was full of emotion. Suspicion and temptation.
Xia Lei's heart suddenly sank slightly, and he said, "Who do you suspect I am? What are my motives?"
"I don't have evidence to prove my guess yet, but I will investigate. I will also give you a warning. If you target me again and want to kill me, I will join forces with Isitabu to kill you. End your life early!" Isitabu's voice.
"You can come at any time. Do you need me to give you the address?" Xia Lei said.
"Breathe," Cassia Ruiz ended the call.
The waters of the Atlantic Ocean are rolling.
Xia Lei looked at the endless sea, and he secretly said in his heart: "You will eventually know who I am, and that day will be the time when I kill you!"
