Ling Xin quickly ran over and squatted down next to Captain Xiang. She was worried, but she didn't dare to touch the arrow that penetrated the opponent's shoulder, and said, "Captain Xiang, it's okay!"
"Humph... This little injury is nothing." Captain Xiang smiled palely, and then tried to stand up from the ground.
"Xiao Li, Xiao Wang and the others..." Ling Xin's eyes were a little wet and she didn't dare to look at the corpses not far away.
A big hand patted her shoulder, nodded heavily to the captain, and comforted her, "They will not die in vain. We will definitely catch the murderer and avenge them."
It was probably the first time for this young lady from the capital to see such a bloody and cruel scene. Captain Xiang could only think of these few words to comfort him.
Lin Chen said from the side, "Xiang Dui, I think you should not force yourself. The diameter of that arrow is two centimeters, and your shoulder blade has been completely cracked. Just stay here and leave the rest to me.
alright."
"No, it doesn't matter, I can still..." Captain Xiang shook his head and tried to stand up while holding on to the wall, but his broken bones were affected and he sat down on the ground despite the pain.
Ling Xin quickly persuaded, "Xiang Dui, just wait for us here with peace of mind. Lin Chen and I will definitely bring the murderer to justice."
"No, you stay here too." Lin Chen glanced at Ling Xin, "I can handle the rest by myself."
"No!" Ling Xin quickly stood up and said, "I want to go too, one more person means more strength!"
"Idiot, you will only add more burden to me." Lin Chen's tone changed slightly, and his eyes swept over the girl's face, "I don't have any free time, I am always waiting to save you."
Ling Xin's face turned slightly red, and then she said angrily, "I didn't ask you to save me. You rushed to me yourself. You just casually called people a burden. I, I..."
Her expression suddenly darkened, then she lowered her head slightly and murmured, "Everyone is dead, but you let me hide here alone. I can't do it... I can't do it. I can't just do nothing."
This is passing the responsibility to others, please, please take me there!"
Ling Xin raised her head and looked at Lin Chen with pleading, "Please take me there."
Lin Chen looked at the girl for a few seconds, then shook his head, "There's nothing I can do, forget it, but after you get up there, you must listen to my instructions. I won't save you if you encounter something like this next time."
Ling Xin nodded vigorously.
"Haha, you're right." Captain Xiang chuckled softly at this time, "You said earlier that someone among us would die, and it turned out to be the case. If only I had listened to you, at least Xiao Li and the others wouldn't have...
Forest Bureau, I apologize to you. But this time, please protect Xiaoling no matter what, I beg you!"
Lin Chen said nothing, turned around, walked to the center of the four statues, and asked, "Tell me your birth date."
Ling Xin was stunned for a moment, and then quickly told her birthday.
Lin Chen counted his fingers, and then said, "After I go up later, you can go up along the ladder on the left. Remember, it must be the one on the left. Don't make a mistake."
After saying that, Lin Chen grabbed the ladder and climbed up. After entering the third floor through the hole, the surroundings were dark, except for a weak beam of light from the entrance of the hole. Lin Chen carefully raised his ears and listened to what was going on around him.
, in the darkness, there was deathly silence.
Ling Xin also climbed up at this time, stretched out her head, and couldn't help but asked in surprise, "Why is it so dark?"
Lin Chen hissed. He had a feeling that he was very close to the enemy. The manipulator hiding behind the scenes, the guy who set up this series of game traps, was currently on this level.
Humph, I really can't wait to see the true face of this bastard.
The two of them stayed there for a while, and as their eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, the surrounding scene slowly emerged. It finally looked like a real factory, with machines that had long been rusted around and scattered on the ground.
Various parts and raw materials are covered with a thick layer of dust.
Lin Chen immediately released his spiritual thoughts and saw that this factory had a total of four exits, and the area here was really huge. Even if he released his spiritual thoughts to the end, he could not sense all of this layer.
At this time, Ling Xin suddenly whispered, "Listen."
Sure enough, a faint cry of a child came over again. In such a dark and abandoned factory, it sounded extremely terrifying. Lin Chen felt Ling Xin's body leaning against him gently,
Whisper, "The kid who was taken away this morning?"
Lin Chen naturally realized that there was something strange about this cry. When everyone was on the second floor, it suddenly came out. It led a few people into a trap, and then disappeared mysteriously. Now it came out strangely again. It was definitely not something.
Good thing.
Lin Chen sneered in his heart, but since the other party was attracting him, let's see what other tricks he had up his sleeve.
Ling Xin remembered Lin Chen's words this time and did not run around without authorization. Suddenly she felt her hand being gently held by the other party. She hesitated for a moment and then did not resist. Lin Chen led Ling Xin and slowly walked forward step by step.
, followed the direction of the sound, and at the same time used his spiritual sense to detect the surroundings. No hidden traps were found along the way. However, if the trap set by the opponent is too hidden, his spiritual sense cannot fully penetrate it.
The two walked through the darkness step by step, and the cries became clearer and clearer. Until they came to an empty hall, the scene in front of them made Ling Xin couldn't help but cover her mouth.
In the center of the hall, a five or six-year-old boy was tied up high with iron chains and hung in the air. What surprised Lin Chen was that there was a small square box tied to the boy's body, with a red electronic watch on it.
The numbers are constantly jumping backwards.
A bomb? Lin Chen frowned slightly. He didn't expect that this scene would be waiting for him in the end. This person was really insidious. Ling Xin screamed and couldn't help but took a step forward, but then took back her steps and looked back.
Lin Chen.
Lin Chen used his spiritual sense to detect the situation and found no traps around the boy. Was this bomb the opponent's last game? The time displayed on the electronic watch was less than five minutes.
"Lin Chen, think of a way quickly, we must save this child!" Ling Xin shouted to Lin Chen eagerly.
Lin Chen shook his head, "No, you and I don't know how to defuse bombs. This is beyond our capabilities. Let's go. When five minutes are up, we will die with this child!"
