The atmosphere and environment inside that secret door gave people a very depressing feeling.
It is as if this door is the dividing line between two worlds, clearly separating the dreamy, ecstatic world outside from this solemn and quiet world.
While carefully observing the situation around them, looking for places where they could escape or hide, Charles and Daniel seemed to be walking on thin ice and working conscientiously.
Hidden around the corner, the two of them each held a pistol in their hands. They slowly emerged from the corner with extra caution and walked straight towards a corridor that was deeper and longer than they imagined.
There is a metal door in the middle and at the end of the corridor, which looks very inconsistent with the surrounding stone walls, but it also really highlights how special these two doors are.
As he slowly approached the metal door in the middle, Charles suddenly asked in a low voice behind Daniel: "What did you do to the monitor?"
"I made the scene freeze at the second after Alvin left, so that we wouldn't be noticed when we came in." Daniel responded in a low voice while raising his vigilance to the highest level and being extremely focused.
Charles followed behind him, advancing step by step with his footsteps, but he seemed to be a little out of the situation. He continued to grab Daniel and flatter him without any nervousness or alertness: "You don't even have the monitor."
Can you control it and be so powerful?"
"Did no one teach you this during special training?" Daniel suddenly turned around and whispered in disbelief.
Charles shrugged and smiled lightly: "Maybe the commander who taught me was jealous that I was handsomer than him, so he didn't teach me these high-tech things."
"..." After going around in circles and still boasting about himself, Daniel was speechless, so he had to cool down and slowly approach the metal door.
It wasn't until they reached the metal door that the two of them discovered a sophisticated electronic lock on the door.
"What should I do?" Charles asked with a frown.
"Hmph!" With a confident snort, Daniel opened his suit and put the pistol on his waist. Then he bent down, glanced at the electronic lock just around his waist, and then quickly took out his cell phone.
"Call for help?" Seeing Daniel take out his cell phone, Charles couldn't help but let out a mocking chuckle.
"Don't look down on others too much." Daniel tilted his lips and gave a proud smile, then turned on the phone and pressed a tiny button hidden at the top of the phone.
The phone suddenly changed its appearance, and began to expand in size along the length of his palm. Several lines of numbers and a blank box suddenly appeared on the touch screen, and the frame of the phone suddenly revealed several square plugs similar to USB sockets.
Daniel quickly pulled out the stylus that came with his phone. When he held it between his fingers, the stylus suddenly turned into a small cross-head screwdriver.
Daniel used this thin screwdriver to start to remove the protective shell of the electronic lock. In half a minute, he successfully removed the electronic lock shell.
The complex colorful wires and LCD electronic display screen inside the shell were fully displayed in front of them.
Daniel stared closely at the complicated wires and circuit boards. He carefully stretched out his fingers with very light and neat movements, pinched the three orange, red, and blue wires, and carefully removed them from the circuit board.
out, and then plug the top end of the wire into the three USB socket-like plugs on your mobile phone.
The phone in his hand suddenly changed. On the palm-sized touch screen, countless data flashed rapidly in the rectangular display frame.
While Daniel kept tinkering with the electronic lock, Charles, who was bored, could only look around to help him look out for possible escape routes.
He turned his head and looked around casually. When he raised his head to look at the ceiling, he accidentally discovered something.
The atmosphere was solemn and tense.
The air is stiflingly hot.
Looking at the numbers that flashed by but still couldn't decipher the password, Daniel couldn't help but sweat dripping from his forehead.
Time passed minute by minute, and about five minutes later, when Daniel was about to announce that the unlocking had failed and was about to give up, Charles was the first to speak impatiently: "Forget it, what a waste of time!"
Daniel pulled out the three wires from the phone and sighed: "It will take at least fifteen minutes to open this specially designed lock with my software alone. I voluntarily gave up on this door. There is another one in front of me."
, let’s go take a look!”
He was about to pick up his steps and move forward, but at this moment, Charles suddenly stretched out his hand to stop him.
"What's wrong?" Daniel frowned and asked in a low voice.
Charles suddenly gave a naughty smile: "You don't have to search door after door so hard, I have a way!"
After that, before he could give Daniel time to react, he suddenly pulled out a pistol from his waist and pointed it at the electronic lock.
"Bang bang bang——!!!", three consecutive gunshots suddenly sounded like explosions in this strangely silent space.
The electronic lock was instantly smashed to pieces by the gun, but the alarm sounded quickly and harshly as the gunfire settled.
Daniel was suddenly shocked and confused, and yelled at Charles regardless of the danger at the moment: "Are you fucking crazy?"
"Don't make any noise!" Charles's eyes showed an unprecedented seriousness and solemnity. He immediately stretched out a hand to cover Daniel's mouth and said sternly, "If you don't want to die, just follow what I say!"
…
…………
The siren continued to sound suddenly and sharply.
In a moment, two sturdy men, each wearing camouflage uniforms and a set of body armor on their chests, pushed open the door at the end of the corridor and ran over quickly.
"What's going on?" A big man in the lead hurriedly ran to the door whose electronic lock was broken and asked angrily.
Another man following him immediately grabbed the walkie-talkie and asked angrily: "Hey! What's going on?"
A vague and intermittent voice came from the intercom: "Report, everything on the monitor is normal, and I didn't see anyone sneaking in!"
"Damn, how could this happen?" Looking at the smashed electronic lock, the leading man immediately reached out and pulled out the wire of the alarm. The alarm sound stopped instantly, and he then ordered to the people next to him:
"If something unusual happens, let's report it to the boss first!"
After saying that, the two of them immediately turned around and ran away, running into the door they just came out of.
When they opened the door and walked in, the heavy metal door was about to slowly close, when a coin suddenly came from somewhere on the ceiling quietly and quickly, and got stuck in the gap between the door and the door frame that was about to close.
middle.
A tense atmosphere that made one's entire body tense up quickly settled down as the two men left.
At this moment, on the top of the door whose electronic lock had been damaged, a fan blade from the ventilation vent was suddenly smashed down.
"Pong——!"
The fan blades crashed to the ground.
Then, two men suddenly jumped down from the vent in the ceiling. With their light and agile movements, they landed safely on the ground. After each of them exchanged a look, they immediately chased them to the door at the end of the corridor.
Squatting down while holding his breath, Charles pulled the coin he had just shot out of the vent from the crack in the door, and then quickly opened the door.
Fortunately, due to the timely stop of the coin, the door did not really close tightly.
"Thank you for finding this way." Following Charles' footsteps and looking at Charles' back, Daniel's voice was cold, but it was not difficult to hear the admiration hidden in his tone.
Charles smiled proudly, put the coins into his pocket, and then replied arrogantly: "Instead of us looking slowly, we might as well attract the attention of others and let them take the initiative to take us to find their boss.
, wouldn’t it be more effective with half the effort?”
"Huh! That's not bad!" Daniel stared at Charles' confident eyes and smiled sincerely for the first time.
…
…………
A basement with pipes everywhere looks as dirty and messy as the bottom floor of a liquor store.
The surrounding air was filled with an unpleasant smell of rust.
Many well-dressed and ready-to-go guards were scattered in every corner, ready to go.
And right in the center of the basement, there are several computer desks arranged in different places. The desks are messy, with beer cans and soda bottles scattered everywhere. Cockroaches are crawling on the potato chip bags wantonly.
Then, there was a faint rustling sound.
In front of the computer desk, two men were sitting lazily on tattered leather chairs, whispering something.
At this time, two big men who had just discovered something unusual outside suddenly rushed into the basement, ran to the two men and reported loudly: "Boss, an infiltrator has been found, and the electronic lock of our firearms equipment warehouse has been damaged!"
"What——!?" One of them, a black-haired man about forty years old with white temples, suddenly stood up from his chair angrily and yelled, "Have you found anyone?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the man sitting opposite him, who looked like he was over fifty years old and had wrinkles on his face, suddenly stood up from his chair, looking a little panicked: "Maybe someone from the National Defense Bureau came here.
Yes! Jeff, I want to get out of here right away!"
The man he called Jeff also raised his eyebrows nervously and whispered solemnly: "Luthor, you haven't taken out the liquid tracker on your body yet. Don't act rashly now. Wait here."
, I’ll go with them to find the person and then we’ll talk!”
"Okay, let me know as soon as there is any movement, so I can prepare to leave as soon as possible."
"Yeah! You guys, come with me!" After nodding, Jeff took the lead and led several men holding heavy machine guns to leave the basement immediately without any explanation.
Just after Jeff and others left, behind a thick pipe near the exit where they went out, two men were quietly and cautiously lurking there, holding their breath and watching the situation not far away.
.
Noticing the guards nearby who were dressed like special forces, Charles and Daniel's expressions invariably became solemn and cold.
"Seven people." Charles whispered beside Daniel with a hint of helplessness.
His body was close to Daniel's side, and the black sequins on his clothes inadvertently rubbed against the fabric on Daniel's shoulders from time to time. The faint touch and the vague body temperature that did not belong to him seeped into it from time to time.
Daniel's skin was like several nerve-itching bugs that wormed their way into Daniel's heart without warning.
A strange warmth and restlessness suddenly surged into Daniel's heart.
Daniel suppressed the feeling that made him feel uneasy and moved a little awkwardly to the side. After pulling away from Charles, he nodded solemnly and asked with a sneer: "Do you have what it takes?"
One person can settle seven?"
"It's absolutely fine if they are unarmed. The problem is that they all have machine guns in their hands! Do you want me to run out and run back like a hornet's nest immediately? Can you bear it?" Charles' voice was very low.
It was light, but the frivolous meaning in the tone was still clearly revealed.
Daniel glared at him sideways, and then said solemnly: "I'll cover you, you rush over and catch Luther first!"
