Chapter 40 Chapter 39 The Uninvited Master
Click, click, the heels of the boots stepped on the stairs going down, the sound became clearer and clearer, and Heisenberg became more and more nervous. He kicked the chair on Zhuang Xuteng's workstation away, pushed the sorted products on the workbench casually, and poured them all back into the "inspection box", then ran to the stairs in two steps, rubbing his hands and lowering his head.
He also took a look at the disinfection room, and saw that there were no obvious flaws, so he was slightly relieved.
A woman walked down the stairs, she was like the queen here. She was a strong woman, about 30 years old, at the age of ambition, which can be seen from her facial expression. Square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, unsmiling, such a face has a kind of resolute neutral feeling. And she also has long silver eyelashes, dark red pearly glossy eyeshadow, and lipstick of the same color, which is obviously the makeup that Peicheng women like.
The meaning of this popular makeup is: independent and confident, strong and aggressive, and already has a certain social status.
At least that's what the ad says.
There's a saying in Peicheng that whether a person is really strong or not can't be judged by his face, but by his clothes. If you wear the company's uniform, then you are stronger than ordinary people. If the uniform is from one of the four top companies, preferably a blue-black suit for middle-level and above employees, the evaluation will definitely be higher.
The woman who came down was wearing a blue-purple combat suit, and the diamond-shaped platinum nameplate on her left chest had the iconic pattern of "Dingxin Mochuang" - crossed double guns held by aerosol-like hands. Surrounding the "Striving Double Guns", red and blue roses bloomed among the thorns. This pattern shows that she belongs to the "Business Development Department" of Dingxin Mochuang, a department that cuts through thorns.
Another way to say it is: the company's armed forces.
In addition to the surface of the black-purple combat suit made of special fiber fabrics that are resistant to cutting and flames, the middle is inlaid with stab-proof armor plates at key locations, and there is also a skeleton support inside to disperse the impact force. Some combat suits are also customized with features to resist corrosion or reduce the damage of shadow slave energy, while other suits are equipped with equipment that enhances the effect of shadow slaves.
The woman who came down now chose the latter. She prefers to act alone. She believes that it is better to use powerful lethality to quickly deal with the enemy than to defend continuously. After all, defense always has flaws and dead people are not a threat. All the equipment on her body is for quick killing, such as armored gloves with integrated shadow gun functions, such as "light wheel" acceleration boots that allow people to move at super high speeds. These are all shadow slaves, produced by the company, of high quality, and killing people like flies.
"Heisenberg," the killer stood at the bottom of the steps. Her height of nearly two meters allowed her to look down on most people calmly. "It's been a while, teacher."
"Mrs. Smith, it's been a while. I don't know what brought you to this shabby place of mine."
"My memories brought me here. I want to see how you are different from what I remember. I hope you can improve! After all, you are my teacher!" The woman gritted her teeth when she said the word "teacher", and there was much more hatred than respect in it.
"I dare not, I dare not, I have been a rat of the Wild Monkey Gang all my life, and I will definitely have no future. Mrs. Smith..."
"Just call me Cassandra."
"Yes, Cassandra, I forgot to use this again..." Heisenberg rubbed his shaking hands and said uncomfortably: "Are you here to check Hercules?"
Mrs. Cassandra Smith directly slapped him with the back of her hand, and with a snap, she gave Heisenberg a big slap. She stared coldly at Heisenberg who fell to the ground, watching the blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. She was obviously a little pleased in her heart, but she still said in a calm voice: "You still dare to say anything nonsense. That tongue should be cut off! Aren't you afraid that someone will eavesdrop here?"
"The guys from the Wild Monkey Gang walk with a clang, they can't even be thieves, let alone spies." Heisenberg slowly climbed up with his hands on the ground, one cheek was red and swollen, and the other side of his mouth was bleeding, and he didn't dare to wipe it. "There are only two of us here."
"Maybe." Cassandra stretched out her arms and shouted "Open!"
Some kind of shadow slave was activated, which made her arms begin to swell, and her muscles formed continuous mountains and valleys, stronger than any of the Wild Monkey Gang thugs upstairs. Her combat suit swelled with it, without any danger of bursting, and it also let a faint blue light shine from the inside, which shows that its shadow enhancement effect is very good.
"Shut!" Cassandra shouted again, and at the same time clapped her palms in front of her chest. With her as the center, a blue energy wave spread out in all directions, and the wall could not stop its expansion.
The lights on the third floor of the basement kept flickering, the shadow slave in the studio groaned, and many parts emitted crackling sparks and burned, leaving behind wisps of green smoke. Heisenberg was tortured by the sudden nausea in his stomach, and the shock pen in his pocket began to heat up, burning his skin, but he didn't dare to say anything and kept it all in his stomach. .
The energy wave swept through the disinfection room, passed through the cabinet, and hit the crude oil water bed "quilt", and it didn't penetrate it as expected. Zhuang Xuteng didn't feel anything inside, he only heard the sound of "open" and "close" outside. The normal voices of Cassandra and Heisenberg were blocked by this mat very badly, he could only hear a few fragments intermittently, and it was difficult to connect them.
The energy wave dissipated, Cassandra's arms returned to normal, and her combat suit retracted. Heisenberg quickly flattered him and said, "You are getting better and better at using shock waves! It's a pity that my shadow slave is broken a lot."
"Everything that can be broken has detection and receiving functions, and is a potential snooping and information collection device - you are too careless!" Cassandra was still worried, wrinkled her nose and sniffed around. "There are no outsiders here? Why is the smell different?"
"Some time ago, I called a cleaner and asked him to clean up the toilet and repair the fan. You also know the virtues of those orangutans and monkeys. Oh, the smell you smell may come from the fan blowing the air upstairs. When I blew it down, it smelled like orangutan.”
Cassandra showed a look of disgust, stopped sniffing when she heard "the smell of orangutans upstairs", kicked Heisenberg away, and walked towards the workroom. Heisenberg ducked, moved out of the way, and followed her like a follower.
"I did come here this time for Hercules." Cassandra came to the studio and frowned at the messy scene like a garbage recycling bin. The smell of rust and decay in the air disgusted her, especially when she had There are still some bad memories here. "It stinks here so much, let's go to the corridor."
"There are no chairs in the corridor, so it's better to go here!" Heisenberg said.
"You are the only one who likes this dirty place." Cassandra squinted her eyes and scanned the workroom. The sharp shadows enhanced her vision with excellent dynamic capture and environmental analysis capabilities to ensure that nothing was hidden in the workroom. people. When she returned to the corridor, her back was facing the disinfection room, which made Zhuang Xuteng lucky enough to escape.
"Why do you suddenly want to see Hercules? It's very secretive and safe, and the orangutans and monkeys above it have never been discovered. And Hercules' purification and filtration progress is very stable, and everything is going according to plan."
"Did you know about the explosion in front of the Scarlet Group's office building on June 23?"
"I heard a little bit. It seems that a group of troublemaking workers rioted. I asked the Wild Monkey Gang and it was not them."
"The beasts from the Wild Monkey Gang definitely don't have that kind of ability, I know that very well." Cassandra said: "I'm here to remind you that there may be guys stealing active shadow followers in Peicheng, maybe they are mercenaries, maybe they are The hidden power of a certain company may become unsafe if it is placed here, so you should be more careful.”
"Ah? Stealing active shadow slaves! There is no such thing on the black market, it must be the power of other companies!"
"Are you still thinking about money? At this time, you are still thinking... Sigh!" Cassandra said: "You really haven't made any progress! But it's okay, you don't have ambitions, maybe you can live longer. Now put the money Forget it and think about the problem carefully.”
"I don't understand, so you should tell me." Heisenberg rubbed his hands, his eyes evasive.
Cassandra saw the look in Heisenberg's eyes and thought that he was just timid and unwilling to get involved in the company's affairs as before. "Dingxin Mochuang inquired about some news. A fool from the Scarlet Group brought the Box of Light to the demonstration site and wanted to use the crowd there to sharpen the shadow. Some people heard the news from somewhere and went to rob the shadow. An explosion occurred during the battle."
"So that's what happened." Heisenberg nodded and asked, "Has the shadow been snatched away?"
"The most troublesome thing is that you succeeded in stealing but failed to steal."
"I do not understand."
Cassandra said: "According to the intelligence, the Box of Light is still in place, severely damaged, and the shadows remaining inside have been downgraded. They were originally colorful living shadows, but now they are red and green things. It can hardly be said to be alive. The remaining species at the scene have a lot of shadow energy, which is consistent with the characteristics of the shadow explosion. "
"Scarlet Company is leading the investigation. They know the most detailed situation, and we can only rely on speculation." Cassandra said: "Those who go to steal or rob are only half successful. They get close to the Shadow Follower, but they fail to kidnap it. If you leave, the energy will be released in vain, resulting in a downgrade. In this case, it is better not to grab it and leave the wreckage. Otherwise, the Scarlet Group will grade the incident with colorful influence and send the top team, which will be difficult to handle. ”
Heisenberg nodded and said: "This is indeed the truth. It is not worth facing the Scarlet fanatics for a Red Shadow servant, so it is better to stay. But even so, there is no reason for the Scarlet Group to let them go!"
"I will definitely not let it go. The Scarlet Group is still investigating. Don't think that this matter will not affect us! Let's talk about the unknown thieves first. Their intelligence and penetration capabilities are extremely strong, and they can dig out such secret information. , and can move quickly, which cannot be underestimated. If they fail to get the Scarlet Shadow Servant, there is no guarantee that they will use Hercules to make up for the loss. Now, all the Shadow Servants outside the company are not safe."
"Only you and I know about Hercules. No one in the Wild Monkey Gang knows about it. It's not that serious, right?"
"The Scarlet Group thought the same way during 623!" Cassandra said: "Moreover, the Scarlet Group did not target that group of people, so everyone was suspicious, especially other companies! They also lost a top shadow follower. , isn’t this a loss and shortfall that needs to be compensated?”
"What should we do?"
"Let me tell you, after this round of filtering is completed, you will close the project and prepare for transfer. I will find a safe time to take Hercules away." Cassandra threatened: "If this happens Question, I will take care of you with my own hands!”
