Sherlock Holmes

【The target has been subdued by me.】

When the security chief heard this, he couldn't help but be startled.

He didn't know what happened in that building, but it seemed that the situation in the building had been controlled by Ms. Lilith!

Not only the security chief heard the communication, but the surrounding soldiers and the unknown man who was giving orders to these people also heard Lilith's words.

Everyone looked a little incredible, but when they thought that the defector had exhausted his physical energy to the limit in several consecutive raids, and Ms. Lilith was undoubtedly one of the shrewdest women they had ever seen, in such a situation Under the circumstances, it is reasonable for her to suddenly subdue the opponent.

"Mr. Congressman, the situation seems to have changed." The security person in charge immediately reported to the communicator.

The middle-aged man on the other side of the phone was silent for a while: "Do what you should do."

He didn't even give any clear instructions. He just finished speaking so ambiguously and hung up the phone.

The security chief exhaled heavily. Although he was only a small commander, he also knew how much overt and covert fighting there was in the circle of big shots. At this juncture, he insisted on blowing up Ms. Lilith regardless of her safety. Architecture undoubtedly contains too many political operations and thought-provoking shady stories.

I am just a chess piece executing orders, but I really don’t want to get involved in this silent but extremely dangerous undercurrent. If I am killed by mutated creatures during the battle, or unfortunately sacrifices during the mission, then at least I have a chance. It's a dignified way to die, but it would be too humiliating to become a victim of some dark struggle.

Well, don’t worry about that for now.

A few minutes later, the fifth floor of the building.

A rescue team of more than 30 people rushed to the location of Ms. Lilith cautiously. What they saw along the way had already shocked these people's spirits. They saw from the messy corpses and the bullet marks on the walls. , the sticky blood gathering all over the ground could not help but paint a series of thrilling scenes in his mind.

At the same time, they can't imagine why a person can still show such terrible lethality after the most cruel and long-term torture. If this guy can maintain a healthy posture, then maybe he can really escape from here. .

Thinking of this, the group couldn't help but feel lucky.

Pushing open the door of a ward, a strong smell of blood hit their faces. Even though most people were wearing riot helmets, the blood still squeezed through the air filter holes and rushed into their nostrils ferociously.

There were corpses all over the floor in the ward. The blood at the feet gathered into sheets. Every step you took, you could pull out sticky threads. And leaning against the corner, Ms. Lilith was sitting weakly in a pool of blood. He held a gun in his hand, and the muzzle of the gun was pointed motionlessly at a man wearing an anti-explosive suit on the ground.

This man's helmet has been taken off, revealing a face full of blood. Some pieces of meat are sticky on the skin. A miserable bloodstain stretches from the corner of his eye to the opposite side of his jaw. It looks like It was caused by scratches from flying shrapnel. At this moment, this man had obviously fainted and was breathing weakly. Looking at the bullet holes in his anti-explosion suit, it was impossible to imagine how many shots this guy had been shot. There were some bullets. It had penetrated the bulletproof ceramic plate and was probably embedded in his bones.

Is this the guy who killed nearly a hundred guards with such a broken body?

The soldiers who came to the rescue couldn't help but take a second look at the bloody face, and at the same time they thought for sure that the people coming from the other side of the space-time rift were indeed mutated monsters.

However, no matter how frightened these people were, there was not much hesitation in their actions. Some people were responsible for guarding the movement in the corridor. Several guards carried the unconscious defector on the ground, and more people followed. , always aiming with their guns, while the remaining people walked towards the weak woman in the corner.

"Ms. Lilith, are you injured again?"

Lilith shook her head: "Take me out of here quickly."

"Yes." Several people carefully helped her up, and then followed the flow of people and walked out of the building.

During this process, there were no unexpected incidents. The unconscious defector was immediately cuffed at his wrists and ankles with high-density alloy handcuffs. It was obvious that these people held this guy in their hearts. There is great fear.

"Lady Lilith!"

After walking out of the building, the security officer outside immediately greeted him: "Are you okay?"

"It's okay for the time being." Lilith said: "Your first offensive measure was wrong. You should have assembled a team of no less than two hundred people and directly suppressed it with full firepower. In this way, the target would not be able to survive the first wave of offensive. Come down."

The person in charge lowered his head: "I'm sorry."

"What's the use of saying sorry? Look at my eyes!" Lilith said angrily.

The person in charge in front of him was a little surprised, because Ms. Lilith was famously cold and usually had an indifferent attitude towards everyone. People around him once revealed that this woman had never praised any employee. , even if someone made a mistake, she did not reprimand anyone severely. In her eyes, it seemed that these people were just tools used to maintain the experiment.

Although it sounds a bit too cool, this kind of personality combined with his beautiful appearance really makes most people respect, yearn for, or be obsessed with him.

After all, who wouldn't like an iceberg beauty who is intelligent and talented?

But now, she was obviously really angry. The person in charge in front of her stood at attention, looking anxiously into his eyes, waiting for a more severe reprimand.

However, when he looked up, he found that the other person's eyes did not seem to have a stern look, but were full of warning. At the same time, he kept gesturing to her to look to her left.

The person in charge looked at her left side in confusion. In fact, there was nothing. There were only two people supporting her beside her, and further away, there were some busy staff and various instruments.

"Um, sorry Ms. Lilith, I don't quite understand."

"Shut up if you don't understand!" Lilith ordered with a frown.

It could be felt that she seemed to be sending some kind of message to him, but the person in charge did not understand it for a moment.

"Thirty seconds left."

"What?"

"Tell your people to move those explosive devices away. This mental hospital is old and still uses the oldest gas pipes. What if something happens?"

"Oh, please don't worry, madam, we have already inspected this hospital when we requisitioned it. Although the pipelines here are indeed old, there is no leakage accident." The person in charge didn't know why the other party suddenly mentioned the gas The problem with the pipeline is probably due to the fact that I was too stressed out after being kidnapped for such a long time.

This is understandable.

However, he found that Ms. Lilith seemed to be looking at him as if she were a fool.

"There are still 15 seconds. I said, move those explosives away. That defector is dangerous, very dangerous!"

"Of course, we have just used stronger restraint tools on him. Please believe me, he will never have the possibility of escaping again."

"call----"

Lilith exhaled a long breath, as if she had encountered such a huge difficulty that even she wanted to give up.

"I'm not questioning the strength of the restraint tools. I'm questioning you. Are you really just tools that only obey orders? Don't you have your own brains?"

"As a soldier, it is my duty to obey orders!"

The person in charge looked bitter, and he didn't even know why the other party was scolding him.

"Pfft————"

An unsuppressed laugh came from the helmet of the guard next to him who was supporting Lilith. The person in charge frowned and looked at him: "Why are you laughing!" he shouted sternly.

"I'm sorry!" The guard lowered his head very apologetically. His voice was not very loud, and he seemed to feel some kind of weakness hidden in his tone.

The security chief was stunned for a moment, as if he had thought of something.

But Ms. Lilith just sighed helplessly: "Forget it. It's too late, there are still two seconds."

"ah?"

"One second."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was only a bang!

The hospital building not far away suddenly exploded. Huge flames rushed out of the windows from the middle floor without warning, and then the terrifying impact easily overturned all the walls, blasting from top to bottom! boom! boom! Continuous explosions, thick smoke billowing, flying rubble, and even some large chunks of walls that didn't have time to collapse directly hit the people below.

Everyone was confused at this moment, frightened out of their wits by the smoke and fire that suddenly shot up into the sky.

But this was not the end, because as the building collapsed, the exploding fire went all the way down and poured directly into the ground. Then, an even louder roar came from the soles of the feet, followed by a dull roar. and increasingly violent vibrations, a crack opened in the ground, and then a plume of smoke exploded within a second. Suddenly, there were many cracks around the building. The choking smell of gas and the fire that kept rushing out of the ground disrupted everything. Come on.

It was at this moment that the guard on Lilith's left side suddenly moved. He dragged Lilith and ran wildly in a certain direction.

The other guard didn't even react. The hand holding Lilith's hand still maintained the same position as before. However, in his mind, he was still impressed by this colleague, thinking that this guy had quick reactions and was able to react at the first moment of the crisis. For a moment, I thought of taking the leader away quickly.

The security chief who had just realized something subconsciously turned around.

At that moment, he seemed to see the guard holding a gun in his hand.

Then I thought about the way the other person was supporting Lilith just now. His hand holding the gun seemed to have been covered all the time.

Could it be that the gun had been pressed against Ms. Lilith’s lower back?

Well, once again thinking about her words, those eyes, and her helpless sigh at the end, the person in charge finally thought of a possibility that made his hair stand on end, and he immediately let out a scream!

"Get that guy!!!!"

But at this moment, everything around him was in chaos. Thick smoke was everywhere, covering the entire sight. Various overturned instruments collided with each other, and electric currents were crackling.

As Sherlock dragged Lilith and ran away amid the smoke and roar, he discovered that in order to isolate the building from the outside world, this group of people even built a huge temporary cabin eight or nine stories high on the periphery. They don't know whether it's because the construction technology in this world has reached an extremely high level, or because they feel that they are too dangerous.

Or both.

In short, he followed some wheel tracks, quickly found the door of the huge building cabin, and kicked it open.

Outside the building, there were some sporadic guards, and a few searchlights were pointed at the exit.

Sherlock's hand was about to raise the gun, ready to kill all the guards and scientific researchers in front of him immediately, but at this moment, he seemed to notice the panic on these people's faces, and when he saw himself rushing out, He didn't pose to take aim.

It seemed that because all the gas pipelines exploded, the instruments outside the hospital were overturned, including the communication facilities, so that the people outside did not hear the order of the security chief.

That's good because these guys don't have to die.

"Gas leak!"

Sherlock immediately shouted in panic

Although the communication facilities of the people on the periphery were broken, they clearly heard the huge sound of building collapse and explosions. Everyone was extremely panicked. Although they were relieved to see Miss Lilith come out intact, they felt relieved. , but still worried.

"ambulance!!!"

Sherlock continued to shout with his neck pulled, as if he was angrily questioning these guys, everyone was staring at something.

Ten seconds later, an ambulance quickly stopped in front of Sherlock. He helped Lilith get into the car. He saw an oxygen mask in the emergency facility. He pulled it over and buckled it on Lilith. on his mouth, and then shouted to the anxious soldiers outside the car door:

"There are still many injured people inside, call more ambulances, hurry up!!"

Of course the soldier immediately complied.

Just like that, Sherlock closed the car door, and as the driver nervously stepped on the accelerator, the car sped away.

And it was only then that Sherlock finally had the opportunity to look through the car window and look at the familiar blood-red sky.

It seems like this is really hell.
