Hidden Corners

"Wait." Song Ran suddenly felt something was wrong. "Mr. Zhong, didn't we call just now? It's not a degree, it's the law of escape?"

"Escape method?" Zhong Hui frowned first, and then, he seemed to suddenly think of something.

With a crash, he stood up, dropped the newspaper and mobile phone on the ground in his hand, his eyes suddenly became terrified, and stared at Song Ran.

"You said just now. Break away from the law!? You are here to break away from the law!!?"

"Isn't it? We just talked on the phone more than an hour ago, Mr. Zhong!? You promised me to come over and pay for the money and the method!" Song Ran was also a little stunned.

"I only talked with two students on the phone just now, there is absolutely no way to hand over the money!" Zhong Hui looked solemn.

"You guys." His voice paused suddenly, as if he had thought of something terrible.

"No! Let's go now!!" He suddenly said in a sharp voice, "Hurry up! Otherwise it will be too late!!"

"It's the way to escape." Li Chengyi finally couldn't help it, stood up and spoke.

"I don't know what the law of escape is! Everything is there"

boom! ! !

In an instant, the window of the living room on the second floor was smashed.

A black figure flew in like a rhinoceros, and with the broken glass, it charged heavily towards Song Ran who was speaking.

This accident happened too fast.

Song Ran only had time to turn his head, his body was tense, and he stretched his hand to his waist to draw his gun.

But before he had time, he was slammed into the side by a figure.

Boom! ! !

The two flew out together, smashed through the wooden door of the bedroom, and rolled in hard.

The sawdust flew away, not only was Zhong Hui not frightened by the accident, but she ruthlessly pushed Li Chengyi away.

"Go! Don't stay! This is a trap!!"

trap? !

Li Chengyi's body was already tense at this time, holding the gun in his hand, but he didn't leave, still staring at Zhong Hui.

"Professor Zhong, I'm here for the escape method of the quiet shop in the dead corner!"

"I don't know anything! I don't know all the dead-end escape methods! Those things are all there."

boom!

A gunshot exploded suddenly.

Li Chengyi's scalp tingled instinctively, and his five senses, strengthened by Hualinyi, suddenly tensed at this moment. With a tilt of his head.

puff.

In front of him, on Zhong Hui's side wall, a black metal needle suddenly appeared.

The needle pierced deeply into the wall, and the tail was still trembling.

Without saying a word, Li Chengyi squatted down immediately, looking for obstacles.

But at this moment, a figure rushed in again at the window that had just been smashed.

The figure kicked against the wall in mid-air, turned around, and rushed towards Li Chengyi.

Boom!

In desperation, Li Chengyi raised his hand and shot.

The large-caliber bullet missed and made a hole in the ceiling beside the figure.

After shooting, he rolled over without looking at the result, barely avoiding the opponent's pounce.

Boom!

Using his hands on the ground, Li Chengyi slammed open the door of the other bedroom and rushed in.

"Chase!"

The second figure who rushed in stood up, revealing his whole face. It was a reformed man with many parts of his body showing metal damage.

He was dressed in a black suit, with a dull complexion and a Chinese-character face, which was the standard appearance of an adult man, but at this time one eye was constantly flashing red, and the fingers on his right arm were transformed into sharp metal needles.

Without hesitation, he immediately chased after Li Chengyi in the direction he entered.

But there was no one inside.

In the face of a fully modified human, it is impossible for ordinary people to be opponents, so the strategy of choice is naturally to escape.

"The two ran away separately, and chased them separately!" A communication voice rang in the ears of the reformed man.

"We don't have much time. The signal of the Fortress of Silence has been blocked for the time being. There are only five minutes. Be quick! People from the Security Agency are coming soon!"

The man in the black suit glanced at the open window, rushed over quickly, looked down, and saw Li Chengyi who had already reached the first floor.

Raising his hand, he aimed the needle at Li Chengyi, ready to shoot.

Suddenly, Li Chengyi's body shrank in the field of vision, and he shrank in the corridor entrance on the first floor, avoiding shooting.

"*!" The man cursed, turned over and jumped out of the window.

But as soon as he landed, he felt something was wrong, and looked up into the distance.

A little red light is shooting from mid-air at high speed.

"It's Feiyi! Withdraw!" An urgent voice came from the communication. "Damn it, it's coming faster and faster! It's less than two minutes! Luckily for them! All withdraw!"

"I don't need this body, I arrest people first! It won't be so easy to be targeted next time." The man in the black suit said in a deep voice.

"Follow you!" The communication was interrupted.

The man in the suit had bright red eyes, and was about to enter the cave where Li Chengyi was hiding.

Suddenly, the red light in mid-air accelerated suddenly.

laugh!

A red line flew down like lightning, passed in a string in the middle of his chest, flew back into the air, and flew to other places.

The man in the black suit was making a movement of stepping and lifting his feet, but he froze in place before he had time to react, his body slowly tilted, and he fell to the ground motionless.

There was already a scorched black round hole in the middle of his chest.

The hole was the size of a fist, and it was rapidly expanding and spreading towards the surrounding area, as if some kind of toxin was spreading.

Inside the cave, Li Chengyi slowly walked out, looking at the reformer on the ground with a complicated expression.

He just hid at the entrance of the corridor just to change his clothes and explode to kill this guy when he had to.

But now it seems to be useless.

He didn't stay any longer, and rushed up to the second floor. The door of Professor Zhong's house was open.

He hurried in and went back to the living room.

"Professor Zhong! Just now."

Li Chengyi's voice stopped abruptly.

Zhong Hui was lying on the sofa at this time, trembling all over, as if she had an illness.

The old lady on the side was feeding medicine into his mouth in a panic, but her hands were also shaking, trembling, but she didn't feed a few pills.

"Send it to the hospital immediately!" Song Ran walked out from the bedroom on one side, leaning on the wall, his upper body covered in blood.

17:12.

Tongfeng Second People's Hospital, emergency room.

The red emergency lights dyed the corridor outside the door a pale red.

Li Chengyi and Song Ran were all bandaged with more or less gauze, and they sat on the waiting chairs to rest.

Opposite them is Zhong Hui's wife, the old lady who poured water for them before.

She looked haggard, leaning against the metal chair, silent.

Apart from them, there were several tall men in black police uniforms.

"Lao Song, don't be so reckless next time. Say hello before you come. If I hadn't received the text message just in time this time, you would be in danger." The man in police uniform who took the lead had long hair tied into a ponytail, His facial features are ordinary, somewhat gloomy, and his body is slightly fat.

"Who attacked us?" Song Ran obviously knew the other party well. Standing up and sighing, he asked softly.

"To completely transform a person, who else can he be?" the man said in a low voice.

"Utopia?" Song Ran came to his senses. To be able to cause trouble in Yiguo, and to send out a force that completely transforms people, there is nothing else except Utopia.

Of course other organizations have the guts, but they don't have the technology to hide the Fortress of Silence and let the whole body enter the urban area.

"We have been following Zhong Hui for a long time. According to the tip, the eleven Chen Zonghans in Ideal Township have been using Zhong Hui for fishing." The man replied.

"Fishing? A blind spot?" Li Chengyi followed suit.

"Yes." The man glanced at Li Chengyi, knowing that he was probably a blind man, and a trace of pity flashed in his eyes.

It's no secret that people in the dead end are in the official department. These dangerous elements are basically registered in the security file. Men don't discriminate against these poor people who are struggling with their inevitable fate. Just feel sad.

"Zhong Hui mastered the method of escape, which is also information leaked by Utopia on purpose. We have dealt with similar cases twice before. The process is the same. We also gave warnings in advance, but some people still believe us." He sighed.

"I just want to know one thing, this police officer." Li Chengyi stood up with a solemn expression. "Professor Zhong Hui, do you really know the way to escape from the blind spot?"

"I should know that the research department related to the blind spot has come here and approached Professor Zhong, and some of them have passed the blind spot successfully through his teaching." The man nodded.

"Are there any other records? Why not record the information?" Li Chengyi continued to ask.

"Professor Zhong is unwilling." Song Ran replied, "I don't know why, but he doesn't want to record the method of escape."

despair.

Just then, the lights in the emergency room turned green.

The door opened slowly.

A doctor wearing a mask came out exhausted.

"Who is Zhong Hui's family?"

"I, it's me!" The old lady stood up tremblingly.

"The patient was rescued, but his consciousness is still vague and he needs to rest."

"Although it's a bit unkind, it's about human life. I still want to ask, Mrs. Zhong, can we meet Professor Zhong now?" Song Ran asked aloud.

"People in the dead corner may enter the dead corner at any time and encounter life-threatening! So, two million! This is the reward we can give immediately!"

He looked at each other sincerely.

"You don't need to ask him. I know a little bit." Mrs. Zhong sighed, "The old clock's mind is not very clear now, and many things are remembered in confusion, but I know that the old clock used to have a notebook, which recorded a lot of things. His personal things. The things you want should also be on it. "

"Mrs. Zhong, you haven't told us about this before?" A policeman beside him couldn't help but speak out.

"Do you give money?" Mrs. Zhong asked back.

The policeman was speechless.

"My husband needs a lot of money if he wants to continue to live, and they can give it." Mrs. Zhong confessed.

Cloning a living person requires a lot of money.

"So, where is the notebook?" Li Chengyi asked in a deep voice.

Mrs. Zhong glanced at the two police officers, then at Song Ran.

Song Ran took out his mobile phone and quickly transferred the money.

In a few seconds, there was a light ding.

Mrs. Zhong looked down at her phone with a chrysanthemum-like smile on her face.

Only then did she get closer, and took the initiative to whisper in Li Chengyi's ear.

"We have a villa on the side of Linqi Mountain. The things are in the villa, under the third floor after the master bedroom enters the door."

Li Chengyi narrowed his eyes.

Linqi Mountain, it should be a suburb, not an urban area.

Is it intentional?

He looked at Mrs. Zhong. After the other party finished speaking, he had already walked a little far away, looking down at the phone with a happy smile on his face.

After getting the news, he and Song Ran left immediately, walked out of the hospital, and sat in the car.

"It seems that Zhong Hui really knows how to make money in the villas in the suburbs." Song Ran said in a low voice, "Are you going?"

"Why don't you go?" Li Chengyi replied. "It's interesting that such an important notebook is not placed in a more secure urban area, but in a villa in the suburban mountains."

He looked at Song Ran. This guy had another broken arm, and there was bandage on the side of his neck. He looked miserable.

"Brother Song, don't go this time, I will go alone."

"I have already transferred someone from the company. I have already transferred someone before I came here. I guess I will arrive tomorrow." Song Ran replied. "You'd better not act rashly, just in case you meet the reformers from Utopia again"

"I understand!" Li Chengyi nodded seriously.

He looked up out the window.

"What do they want to do in Utopia?"
