"Because I met two of the people who went to Area S with your uncle that year." Lin Wu said.

These words startled the three people in the private room.

Xu Xianhuai said in astonishment: "This case happened eighteen years ago. According to your age, you were probably just born at that time. How could you have met the team members at that time? Didn't those people never come back?"

Lin Wu shook his head: "Not everyone will never come back."

These words reminded Guan Chen, and after thinking about it for a moment, he understood.

"I remember when we finally found a way out at the Ninth Pier, there was a dead man by the lake. He had an ID card on him with his name on it. It said Li Zhengyuan, a member of the Snow Leopard Brigade in S District. Are you saying that he was one of the people who followed us there?"

Lin Wu looked at Bo Yuting, "What do you think?"

Bo Yuting was slightly surprised, but soon realized that she had already made up her mind and was just watching his attitude.

He sat up a little straighter, smiled helplessly, held her hand tightly and nodded seriously: "Indeed, he is."

Xu Xianhuai on the opposite side cried out in amazement: "There is actually a survivor in the "511" case?! Then why was he there, and why didn't he come back and report it in time after the incident? If he had reported it in time, maybe so many things wouldn't have happened later!"

"Because he was imprisoned at the time."

Bo Yuting said that there was no need for Lin Wu to ask any more questions, and he directly explained what happened to him at the Ninth Pier before.

"I entered Pier 9 at that time, and something went wrong soon after. Someone sneaked into my team and was good at disguising himself, so I didn't notice it at first. By the time I found out, it was too late, and I was separated from my people."

Hearing this, Guan Chen's face tensed slightly and he asked, "And then?"

Bo Yuting glanced at him.

They all knew that the man who had sneaked into Bo Yuting's team was Lu Guichi. Moreover, when Bo Yuting got into trouble, Lu Guichi's whereabouts were unknown and he did not show up, so the timing was completely consistent.

Bo Yuting said: "That thing wanted to lure me out at first, but I accidentally found the base hidden deep inside, and discovered that there were a lot of... people there. Not very normal people, they were all mentally ill and very aggressive. Fortunately, they were all locked in the room, so they didn't pose a big threat to me."

"But that thing discovered that I saw those people, and it showed up to attack me. I was surprised at the time because it didn't kill me. It just wanted to force me to leave, and it also wanted to hypnotize me so that I would forget those things. Later, a man rescued me and took me away. After getting to know him, I learned that he was a member of the team back then, named Li Zhengyuan."

"He told me that his team went abroad to find an underground city with amazing wealth and secrets. But they encountered danger and the whole team was destroyed. He thought he was dead, but when he woke up, he found that he had fallen into the sea and was washed ashore. Someone rescued him."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xianhuai asked hurriedly, "So the purpose of Bo Qingcheng and others leading the team to go abroad was to visit this underground city? Was it because of this underground city that the '511' case happened?"

Bo Yuting nodded.

"Li Zhengyuan said that this underground city is very special. Few people know where it is, and the journey to find it is also very dangerous. Their team encountered unprecedented danger."

"What happened after that? Did he go back to China to report the news?!"

Xu Xianhuai could hardly sit still. Thinking of the international organization's loss of so many people, he became anxious. "It's been such a long time. Even if he didn't go back, it should be enough time for him to make a phone call or send a message, right?!"

"He had absolutely no chance."

"He was seriously injured and couldn't get out of bed. When he finally got better, the Huo family found him, took him away, and interrogated him about the entrance to the dungeon and how to get in. He said he didn't know, but the Huo family didn't believe him and tortured him for a long time."

"In recent years, he said that the Huo family seemed to have made a breakthrough and were doing some experiments. Then they sent him to the secret base under Pier 9 and imprisoned him there, forcing him to identify which tattoo patterns were useful. He didn't know what the Huo family was doing, and he couldn't escape because it was too deep there and the guards were too strict."

Speaking of which, the scene when Li Zhengyuan spoke in a deep voice is still vivid in my mind.

Bo Yuting's eyes were solemn. "He said he told me all this because he saw that I looked a lot like my uncle, and asked me if I was a member of the Bo family. I said yes, and he handed me a USB drive, which contained all the data on the experiments that the Huo family had done in recent years. He hoped that I could use that to find out what the Huo family was doing."

"Since he stole the USB flash drive from the core laboratory, the remaining people there soon discovered it and came to search for it. I wanted to go to the laboratory to take a look, so I didn't leave immediately. Later, those people left, and Bo Wu also brought people down to look for me, and then..."

"Then I went." Lin Wu said, "So the thing you asked him to take away first was this."

Bo Yuting nodded, "That USB flash drive is of great importance, so if I let him get out first, I will send him to S District. S District is my place. I have screened all the people in it over the years, and no one from other forces will infiltrate it."

Xu Xianhuai asked: "Are there any results now?"

Bo Yuting knew what he meant and shook his head. "The data in the USB drive was too much and too huge to be processed in a short time. Then something happened to me and it was put on hold. After I woke up, I took the time to go through some of the data and asked some people from the medical organization to help look at it."

He went to the medical organization today to deal with this matter.

Lin Wu listened and said, "It's okay. I can tell you why the Huo family did those experiments."

Several people looked at her in unison.

Lin Wu said: "This has to do with the second member of S District that I met."

She turned to Bo Yuting, "Actually, you know her too."

Bo Yuting was slightly surprised, and thought along the lines of what Lin Wu said, and asked inexplicably, "Could it be that the woman I was investigating three years ago, the one you met?"

Lin Wu nodded, "I still don't know her name or her specific identity, but this time in Sishui Prison, I learned from Shi Ying what she went through."

She recalled and told the story.

"It's also related to the dungeon you mentioned. When their team got into trouble, she was lucky because she reached the entrance of the dungeon."

"But she didn't know how she got there. She said she was there when she woke up, with a tattoo on her body. Later it was confirmed that she survived because of the tattoo. And the tattoo was very special. Not only was it a phoenix pattern, but it also contained a map to the dungeon."

"She escaped many years ago, but was hunted by the people guarding the underground city. On the way, she met Shi Ying, who discovered the secret of her tattoo and forced her to reveal it. The Huo family also discovered her and knew that only those with that tattoo could go to the underground city and survive nearby."
