MTL - Darkness is Coming-Chapter 174 True and False Mr. Qiu (Part 1)
After getting out of the elevator, Tang Tao realized that the bungalow on the ground was really just a small entrance. The area of the entire basement was far beyond imagination. Just looking at the negative six floors, it was at least several times the area of the bungalow.
A laboratory of this scale could not have been built in just half a year even before, let alone after the disaster. The only explanation is that this laboratory has existed for a long time.
"Yes, this laboratory was built a few years ago." Hou Jie saw Tang Tao's thoughts again, "This is the biochemical laboratory of Qiu's Pharmaceutical Group. It used to be highly confidential, and people like us Don't talk about it, you won't even hear it."
"Then who is the Mr. Qiu you are talking about?"
"Mr. Qiu is the son of the chairman of the Qiu Group. I don't know the specifics, but I only know a little bit. Mr. Qiu did not take over the management, but has been obsessed with research. Because the underground laboratory is strictly controlled, every entry and exit must be quarantined. Disinfection, so when a disaster breaks out, this is the safest place, as long as the passage above is closed, no zombies and viruses can come in, and the reserves in the warehouse are enough for a few years.”
"Then you used to be a staff member here?" Tang Tao asked.
Hou Jie's expression darkened a little, shook his head, and said, "I can't explain a few words, let's go for a comprehensive inspection first. When we entered the elevator just now, the surveillance camera was automatically triggered, and now someone should have gone to notify Mr. Qiu, Qiu Mister will come over in a while, should he come?"
Listening to this tone, Hou Jie is not very sure. Tang Tao nodded and began to follow Hou Jie's instructions to undergo the inspection. He originally thought that there would be no further twists and turns and that his mission had been completed, but he did not expect that after both himself and Hou Jie were inspected, an accident still occurred.
Tang Tao didn't know that Yu Qian came from another world, and he didn't know that Yu Qian had worked as an experimental guinea pig for more than ten years before. Not to mention touching his body for various tests.
So Tang Tao didn't expect Yu Qian to have such a radical reaction: he cut off the instrument with a single sword and slashed the blade across the examiner's throat.
The alarm sounded quickly, the tempered glass door was closed, and then the outer alloy door slammed down, sealing them in a small room. The weapon was aimed at the testing room.
"Don't get excited, don't get excited!" Hou Jie hurriedly raised his hands and shouted, "They just follow orders and won't mess up. And we are very clean, we haven't triggered the disinfection program yet, don't get excited! It'll be fine! Yes, we'll just wait here, don't trigger the disinfection process, otherwise..."
Tang Tao immediately followed and raised his hands, but Yu Qian couldn't hear Hou Jie's words, Feijian transformed into a long cone, smashed the tempered glass, and was about to rush out to kill the Quartet when two figures appeared outside. One was wearing a white lab coat and black-rimmed glasses, with dark circles so thick that the lenses could not be covered, the other was a little taller than him, wearing a tight leather jacket, muscular like a bodybuilder, and looked like the white man on the left. Bodyguard in a coat.
As soon as these two appeared, the closed doors were all opened, and the team of muscular men holding guns immediately put down their weapons and stepped back.
Seeing that they put down their weapons, Yu Qian also temporarily suppressed his hostility, and the flying sword hung in the air without chasing.
The two who walked in quickly walked in front of Tang Tao and Hou Jie, Hou Jie bowed respectfully, Tang Tao thought that this is Mr. Qiu that Hou Jie said, hurriedly stretched out his hand to the white coat, and said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Qiu. I'm..."
Before he could finish speaking, a large and powerful hand grabbed Tang Tao's outstretched hand and shook it vigorously.
"Hello, Mr. Tang, I know you." The big man in the leather coat gave Tang Tao a hearty smile.
"Huh?" Tang Tao was stunned, and it took him half a moment to turn around. It turned out that this strong man who looked like a bodyguard was Mr. Qiu in Hou Jie's mouth? This was really unexpected, Tang Tao couldn't help but cast his inquiring eyes to Hou Jie, but Hou Jie kept his waist down and his head down, Tang Tao couldn't see the expression on his face.
"Haha, don't be embarrassed, Mr. Tang, you are not the first to admit your mistake." The strong man released Tang Tao's hand, pointed to the frail-looking white coat beside him, and said, "This is my personal assistant. , We were often mistaken before, and people who didn't know me always thought he was Mr. Qiu and I was his bodyguard."
"This, there's nothing I can do. In most people's impressions, don't the people who do research in the laboratory wear a white coat and black-rimmed glasses." Tang Tao scratched the back of his head, a little embarrassed and a little bit awkward. It's easy, it turns out that this mysterious Mr. Qiu is completely different from the Frankenstein image he conceived, and he is such a good talker.
"This is your misunderstanding of our researchers. Indeed, there are many researchers who forget to eat and sleep for their research, but I am not the same. There is a saying in the ancestors that the body is the capital of the revolution. Yu, I prefer to exercise. If you have a good body, you can continue to fight and make sure you don’t vomit blood and die in the middle of your research, hahaha.” The strong man patted Hou Jie on the shoulder, because Hou Jie still kept bowing. Therefore, his hand could be placed on Hou Jie's shoulder without lifting much, "Hou Jie, you go up and pick up President Yang, I think he should be there soon."
"Yes." Hou Jie replied, got up and walked into the elevator. He didn't say a word or change his expression, which made Tang Tao feel that something was wrong, but he didn't study it carefully, because what he heard just now attracted all his attention. .
"Pick up President Yang? President he's here?"
If the guild leader will come, why didn't he go with them from the beginning, but handed over the "escort" task to the heavy cavalry battalion? Tang Tao cast doubtful eyes on Yu Qian.
Yu Qian threw back a blank eye and two words: "Idiot."
Idiot? Tang Tao frowned, but he wasn't angry, but he really didn't understand what was going on.
"Don't mind Mr. Tang, you, President Yang, also have difficulties. After all, he has too many stakes involved." The strong man explained with a smile.
"Oh." Tang Tao seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly realized, both eyebrows raised.
It turns out that, for such an important matter, of course the president will come. After all, the president is not the kind of person who values face above everything else. But after all, the president is the president of the Yuanjiao Association, the owner of the entire Jiangxin Island and Paradise Island. Even if he rarely goes out, there are still many eyes focused on him. If the guild leader goes out easily, walks with the heavy cavalry battalion, and comes to this laboratory together, I am afraid that the people of the 258th division will find here the next day.
Not to mention that the various matters of the Star of Hope cannot be easily handed over to others. If everyone knows that the president is not on the island, many people will be careful. Of course, these are all small things. The real concern is that after the World War I, the traitor Yang Yuechen and others disappeared, and they still don’t know what dark corner they are hiding in. If they can grasp the exact whereabouts of the president and set up an ambush on the way, Is that worth it?
Anyone who knows about this matter knows how terrifying the abilities of Yang Yuechen and his associates are. Many of them speculate that the reason why they are reclusive to the leaders of the Corpse Front Finger and the Yuanjiao Society is because they are afraid of being assassinated.
"Maybe the president has other intentions for this arrangement." Tang Tao understood, and said something in a low voice.
