Hidden Corner

 Chapter 101 101 Get Three

 New Century Building, Hongjin Company.

　　　hiss.

 The elevator slowly opened.

A slender woman wearing a black fox mask, a black leather coat, and a silver suitcase in her hand slowly stepped out of the elevator.

“This is it, Hongjin Biopharmaceutical.” The woman raised her eyes and glanced at the talking and laughing staff in the hall.

“Excuse me, does anyone here know where this person is?”

 She raised her hand and moved forward.

The projection button on the chest suddenly appeared in mid-air, projecting a full-body image of Li Chengyi wearing a wisteria-scaled garment.

"Madam, is this an exoskeleton or a complete body? We are a biopharmaceutical company here, not a consulting or detective agency. If you want to find someone, you should go to those places." A male employee explained kindly.

"Someone told me for sure that you have this person's private information and latest whereabouts." The woman's voice was soft, "So... if you tell me again, no."

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 simultaneously!

In an instant, the suitcase in her hand deformed and melted, turning into a slender scimitar with a crescent moon.

The machete shot out instantly and penetrated the thick wall behind the male employee.

 There was only a black crack on the wall, no debris.

The crescent scimitar was like a knife cutting through tofu, penetrating the wall easily, spinning back from the corridor on the other side, floating in the air to the right of the woman.

 The male staff member was stunned for a moment and stood there. The coffee he was holding began to shake violently, and a lot of it spilled on the carpet.

"Me, me." His face turned pale, his legs became weak, and he could no longer move.

“If you don’t talk nonsense to them, kill them all.”

A tall, thin man wearing a black fox mask walked out from behind the elevator.

 Different from the woman, he did not have a suitcase, but held two mini-submachine guns in each hand.

 At this time, everyone in the hall reacted when they saw the gun in the man's hand.

　　唰!

 In an instant, everyone opened the drawer and reached for it.

Dozens of guns of different sizes and calibers were all aimed at the two men in Black Fox Mask.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　click.

 One of the strong female staff members also carried a personal laser cannon on her shoulders. The muzzle of the cannon was the size of a human head, and a faint red light already lit up in the dark hole.

ˆ “.”

ˆ “.”

Black Fox and the two froze in action.

If it’s just ordinary firearms, they can rely on exoskeletons to block them, so don’t be afraid.

 But now, the laser cannons are here.

This thing is extremely fast, and can almost hit the target instantly. It is also very powerful, and the danger is greatly increased.

 This company...is it definitely a biopharmaceutical? Not making arms? ? !

This kind of firepower is enough to fight a local battle in some small countries!

"What did you just say? Can you say it again, I didn't hear it clearly."

 Behind the strong female staff member who resisted the artillery fire, the pencil-browed woman crossed her arms and stared at the two people with cold eyes.

 “Hahaha, that’s interesting.” The black fox woman laughed. "You think you can stop it with this little battle."

 She could not say the next words.

A sharp sense of terror and threat swept over her like a tide the moment she took the second step forward.

 “Someone has targeted us!” The voice of the black fox man behind him deepened.

“It’s far away! It’s not nearby. Do you want to continue?”

  "." The woman fell silent.

　　Raising her head, her eyes under the mask flashed with a blue light, and her sight seemed to penetrate the wall, pass through the roof, and look to a place very far away.

That was the top of a silver building under the night sky, at least ten kilometers away.

There, there were streaks of faint red light that gathered together like swimming fish, forming a straight and sharp red spike covered with tiny circuit patterns.

The top of the spikes is facing the two people in black fox masks.

“You two, I can’t stop you from taking action!” Ding Ning’s voice sounded from a speaker somewhere in the company lobby. "But I can deal with you after you take action."

Black Fox and the two remained silent.

 Scream Street.

Li Chengyi narrowed his eyes and stared at the old man in front of him.

 For a while, I was a little unsure about the other person’s background.

 Looking for his trumpet?

 His trumpet strength can be said to have been displayed a lot before. Anyone who can trace the line of Hongjin Company should not miss the actual combat information of his previous actions.

 But knowing the strength of the trumpet, he dared to come to the door openly.

 This means that the other party is very confident in himself.

"Don't be impatient, think about it slowly." The old man smiled gently, "The child has some misunderstandings with us, but if we explain the misunderstanding clearly, it will be fine after we clear it up."

"Mr. Bai." Li Chengyi considered the title and said in a deep voice, "Do you have a photo of the person you are looking for? Or a name?"

"That's not true." The old man shook his head, "However, he likes to wear purple exoskeleton armor, and occasionally wears gold full-body armor with a stabbing sword. We don't know his name, but someone gave him one for simplicity. The nickname is thug."

“Thug? Why did you get this nickname?” Li Chengyi asked.

"Because, every time he appears, he will definitely kill people and bring up a lot of blood." The old man sighed. "Perhaps the blind spot makes his nerves tense and he is on the verge of collapse at any time, so he acts so violently. But people can live this life. , shouldn’t be controlled by instinct like this.”

Li Chengyi felt a chill in his heart. When he heard the other party openly mentioning the blind spot, he vaguely guessed who the other party was.

"Why do you think he is controlled by instinct? From what I know about him, he is very conscious and has always been." He replied in a low voice.

 The old man glanced at him and smiled.

“We have been studying blind spots for hundreds of years.”

 His juice has arrived just in time. Pineapple, watermelon and white pear juice.

 The pale yellow pineapple sank to the bottom of the glass, with a few slices of green mint suspended in the middle of the pale pear juice. The top was covered with milkshake, watermelon, and a garnished black cherry.

 “Look.” He pointed to the bottom of the juice glass.

Li Chengyi’s eyes followed the tips of his fingers and landed on the pineapple pulp that sunk to the bottom.

 “What?” he asked.

The old man smiled.

 “This is my favorite juice.”

 His fingers wiped away the condensation on the outside of the glass, exposing more of the pineapple inside.

“I don’t like sour food the most. But I also like the smell of pineapple. What should I do?”

 He paused, took back his hand and smiled.

“So I asked the store clerk to help me put it at the bottom.”

"?" Li Chengyi didn't understand what he meant by saying this at this time. But it was obvious that the other party had something more to say.

“But even if it sinks to the bottom, I still know that this glass of juice will definitely be sour by the end.

 So, every time, when I drink juice, I feel worried, scared, even "

 “Fear.” The smile on the old man’s face slowly faded.

 “Do you know what that feels like?”

“No matter how sweet it is at the beginning, I will inevitably face the sourness that I hate in the end. The longer I drink it, the more I think I will drink something sour soon. But if I give up, I can’t let go of the aroma.”

"Human instinct is the same." The old man said calmly.

“That’s what Dead End is. It’s scary. No matter how much sweetness we get from it, we actually know that in the end, it’s sour.”

“Your friend is driven by fear and is rushing forward along a fixed road. This road has been traveled by many people, and it will only lead to a bad ending.”

 Li Chengyi was silent for a moment.

 “Do you know much about blind spots?”

“Yes, I understand very well.” The old man nodded, with a smile on his face again. "So, you and your friends are both good kids. You all have your own talents and abilities, and they shouldn't be buried."

"He should have killed many of your people, right? Don't you hate him?" Li Chengyi asked again.

"The world is like this. The laws of nature are cyclical, Tao follows nature, and death is also a return to the natural universe. All things are composed of particles, and death is just a reconstruction, a new journey, nothing more." The old man said with a smile.

"But he lives a good life alone, why does he want to hang out with you? Have any of you successfully escaped from the blind spot?" Li Chengyi asked.

"I don't know." The old man shook his head, "But if there is anyone in this world who is most likely to escape from the dead end, that person must be from us."

"Don't worry, you can think about it carefully." He picked up the juice and took a sip.

“Don’t be controlled by fear. That is the remaining instinct of our animal brain that has not yet fully evolved. But now, it is no longer needed. Only by getting rid of fear can it be possible to find the true nature of dead ends.”

 Li Chengyi thought for a moment.

“Don’t talk about what is available and what is not available, just talk about the benefits of joining you.”

"." The smile on the old man's face paused. "Of course there are benefits. More complete information on blind spots, high-strength alloy technology, stronger transformation technology, and greater ideals!"

"You shouldn't talk about the future for the sake of benefits. People shouldn't be so vulgar." He frowned and advised.

"But I am just a vulgar person. I can't understand a lot of what you are saying to me. I only know what I have in my hand and what can I get?" Li Chengyi spread his hands. "By the way, what's your surname?"

“I have already said that your surname is Bai. Bai Chong, you can call me that.” The old man replied.

"Mr. Bai, you should also think about the possible disadvantages of joining you. For example, being wanted everywhere and having nowhere to hide, you can only keep running away. You will be on guard every day, lest you accidentally say something or not." That’s right. Isn’t this kind of life tiring?”

Li Chengyi's juice also arrived, Pipa apple juice, and he picked it up and took a sip to moisten his mouth.

“So, you should think of impressing my friend with something more practical.”

"One hundred million." Bai Chong raised a finger, "Is it enough?"

  .”How practical!

Li Chengyi shook his hand and almost knocked down the juice.

"The money was laundered? In what name was it distributed?" He reacted immediately and asked quickly.

Bai Chong narrowed his eyes and said no more.

 He punched his cane, stood up, and seemed ready to leave.

  Pushing the chair away, he picked up the juice again and drank until only the pineapple was left.

“One day, you will take the initiative to contact us.” He stabilized his round hat and put down a piece of paper.

 “When you want to get in touch, you can call this number.”

 There is a line of numbers written clearly in black letters on the note.

Li Chengyi squinted his eyes and looked up, but was shocked to find that Bai Chong was gone.

  Such a large living person disappeared within a second of looking at the note.

 ‘Is it optically invisible? ’ He quickly turned on the AR engineering mode to view infrared radiation.

 But still nothing.

 ‘Have you even shielded yourself from the heat? ’

 Sitting in a position.

 He reached out, picked up the piece of paper, and wrote down the number.

　　　.

 Suddenly his cell phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was Pencil Mei's number.

 Press the button to connect immediately.

"What's wrong?"

"Some people from Utopia came to the company, and they were almost attacked. Fortunately, we were prepared. Mr. Ding Ning was monitoring remotely at any time to push back the enemy. How are you doing over there? We just monitored that your signal has been blocked again." Pencil. Mei Mei said slightly worriedly.
