"Oh, haven't those two outside been caught yet?" The person glanced at the weakened Xiaofan, and the bloodstains on the ground, without raising any suspicion.
"I don't know either. There's a guy who's very cunning; when I threw a bomb at him, he actually kicked it back. I couldn't dodge in ti and got blown up, my back all ssed up."
"Hey, hurry up, there's a lift on the upper floor in front, you can go up. If Dr. Lu is willing to treat you, you might recover quickly."
"Oh, haha, thank you."
This guy is really too calm. Can he make such cool-headed judgnts at any ti?
Just how many people like this are there in the world? Clearly, slipping up would cost him his life, yet he seems utterly unperturbed.
Just like Ye Xiaofan back in high school, when I went to him for information about Shen Zuimo, he put up such a convincing act. Especially when I followed him ho; looking back, if I had been a bit more cautious, perhaps I could have found so clues on him.
Maybe Lin Miaoke knows why I always butt heads with him - the similarities between him and Ye Xiaofan are just too many, too many.
Not only was Xiaofan not suspected, but he also found the exact location of the dical room, aning he had to hurry upstairs.
There was no guard at the dical room; at this ti, the doctors should be resting.
"I wonder who this Dr. Song he ntioned is. I should've asked where he lives."
"Stop talking, the gauze, disinfectant, anti-inflammatory drugs. Quickly." Xiaofan scanned the surroundings cautiously, ti might be running out. Hesitating, he moved to a counter and casually grabbed a scalpel inside.
If it cos to it, it's best to have a knife ready at hand.
'Beep beep beep beep beep beep beep...'
Just then, the alarm suddenly blared everywhere.
Red lights were flashing nonstop, covering the corridors entirely.
"What's going on?"
"I don't know, maybe they're starting to evacuate. Or..."
"Hmm? Or what?"
"Or they've found out we've infiltrated."
"What?"
Lin Miaoke looked at Xiaofan, panicked. She knew well that his predictions almost always hit the mark.
If it's the forr, it's fine; if it's the latter, then they're in danger.
"Quick, seal off all the exits, don't let anyone leave casually, everyone's identity needs to be checked. No unrelated persons should be moving freely."
Amidst the shouts, it was already clear their infiltration into the base had been discovered.
"How could it be? There was clearly no slip-up."
"Don't idealize things too much; nothing is absolute. Quickly, we must find a hidden spot before they completely seal off everything."
"But, it's all transparent glass corridors here; where can we hide?"
"Well, that's better than waiting here to die."
With those words, Xiaofan didn't even have ti to clean his wound; he took three anti-inflammatory pills and imdiately headed outside.
Their pace was swift, aiming to blend into the crowd while seeking an opportunity to hide.
Lin Miaoke couldn't comprehend how they were discovered.
As for that, it was the Snake Head who accidentally discovered them.
Because the stipulated half-hour had passed, as the organization was preparing to evacuate and blow up the cave, the Snake Head inevitably had to return to the cave to await orders.
This ti, the loss would be imnse, yet to preserve the whole, they had to abandon the entire mountain, eventually vanishing without a trace.
Just before returning to the cave, at the roadside restroom, the Snake Head unexpectedly found the bodies of Xiaofan and Lin Miaoke's discarded clothes.
Recollecting the previous encirclent by three parties, and with this being the only route, they certainly must have passed by here, and stealing the clothes ant they intended to disguise as them.
Imdiately, the Snake Head reported to headquarters, and upon reviewing surveillance records, indeed found evidence of Xiaofan and Lin Miaoke entering the base.
Thus, if they hadn't gone down the mountain to notify the police, it ant this location wasn't exposed, and there was no need to evacuate, no need to destroy or abandon the entire base. Instead, just capturing and killing the two would be much simpler.
Confirming they hadn't left after entering, the cave instantly erupted in chaos.
Ard mbers began exploring layer by layer, searching for traces of the pair amongst the night patrollers.
This was precisely the advantage of Xiaofan deliberately avoiding caras earlier; like now, the fact they couldn't imdiately find them proves there's still a chance to survive.
However, the cave belonged to them, every point known clearly by them; hence, what would be the best hiding spot?
Clutching Lin Miaoke's hand tightly, he felt it was colder than Xiaofan's who was losing blood.
"Are you scared?"
"I, I'm not scared."
"It's okay, I'm scared too. Humans naturally fear death, let alone when sensing its approach. But we aren't dead yet, aning there's still a chance to conquer death."
Is he still trying to encourage ? What a peculiar guy.
"Yeah, I've been ntally prepared for a day like this, what terrifies more is if we die here, everything here might never be found, and those 30 or 40 survivors might never see rescue by the police."
"Phew, Ni, you're making pessimistic too. Co on, keep your head down, don't let caras catch us, let's move with the crowd, pretending we're searching too."
"Okay. Hey, wait a minute."
"What?"
After walking a few steps, Lin Miaoke suddenly halted in front of a room.
"Song Wencheng?"
"Why? Does Dr. Song live here? Do you know him?"
"Roughly, just got the missing report two days ago, Song Wencheng from the dical University vanished in his apartnt, didn't expect..."
"Knock on the door."
"What?"
"Knock on the door."
"It's locked, what's the point of knocking?" Lin Miaoke asked, puzzled.
Xiaofan couldn't wait to explain, he stretched out and knocked on the locked door.
'Creak.'
An iron window on the door opened, and a bespectacled middle-aged man peeked out.
"Enough already, I told you, I won't agree to join you."
"Hello, Dr. Song, first ti eting; she's a police officer, we've infiltrated here, need your help." Fortunately, Xiaofan guessed right again; Dr. Song had just been captured, hadn't joined their organization yet, asking for his help still offered a chance.
