Chapter 655 Can I Survive?
Yin Qi slowly opened her eyes and immediately started coughing, coughing out the nutrient solution in the petri dish.
After seeing the girl wake up, the people around her breathed a sigh of relief.
Xia Yue was also soaked at this moment, obviously having just woken up from the petri dish.
"...why are you all surrounding me..."
Yoongi said weakly.
"What else?! If we don't surround you now, we'll just be in your funeral hall, surrounding your body!"
Lin Ziyu shouted excitedly, but was punched by Su Xue and flew away the next second.
"Xiaoqi, are you feeling unwell?"
Su Xue's coat was now draped over Yin Qi's body, and she asked with concern.
"Not feeling well... Yeah, a little sleepy..."
Li Muhan also put his coat on Xia Yue.
"What about other places? Does your head hurt?"
Su Xue continued to ask while examining Yin Qi's body.
"No... I don't know why, but I feel like my mind is... clearer... than before."
Yoongi said, touching his forehead.
"But I feel a little empty inside, like something is missing."
"Yoongi."
Li Muhan looked at Yin Qi seriously.
"what?"
Yin Qi raised her eyes slightly and looked at Li Muhan. This was the first time that the girl was afraid to look directly into Li Muhan's eyes.
"You have violated the oath of Team Seven."
Li Mu said coldly.
"I know... I am willing to accept any punishment from the Special Management Bureau."
Xia Yue tugged at the corner of Li Muhan's clothes: "...but she is only doing this for your own good."
"That won't work either."
Li Muhan rarely refuted Xia Yue, but this time, he had to tell Yin Qi how outrageous what she did was.
"Never forget, Yin Qi, you are the assaulter of Team 7, and you are also our family. And no one in Team 7 can be left behind."
If it was the Yin Qi of the past, he might have turned his head away and snorted coldly.
But now, after a moment of silence, she nodded slightly: "I understand, I am willing to accept the punishment."
"It's good that you know. Your punishment is..." Li Muhan pondered for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face: "After you recover, I will give you a month's salary and treat everyone to a trip. We are all from Team 7 together."
Yin Qi was stunned, then looked around at everyone: "This, is the punishment?"
"Why~ Are you feeling bad? This is just one month's salary~ I can buy enough cat food to feed the kittens. Are you feeling bad, Xiaoqi?"
Su Xue gently pinched Yin Qi's face.
"Well, no, not... I, I..." Yin Qi blushed slightly, then she raised her head and looked at everyone with a smile.
This was a smile that had never appeared on her face before.
"Okay, I accept."
Xia Yue tugged at Li Muhan's clothes again: "I, I want to go too."
"How dare you say that! You also acted alone!"
Li Muhan turned around and glared at Xia Yue, but was immediately glared back at by Xia Yue: "It's because you're sleeping like a dead pig! If I don't go, who will go? I don't care, I want to travel too, I'm going!"
Just behind them, the woman with messy hair sat dejectedly on the ground.
What else can she do now? Even the last realm has been shattered.
What else can she do now?
Her eyes were dull as she slowly looked at the pistol that fell to the ground.
There are still two bullets in the pistol... While they are not paying attention, maybe I can...
Qu Ran's hand slowly grasped the pistol.
It’s so cold... It’s never been this cold before.
She slowly raised her hand and pointed it at Li Muhan's back.
Gradually, Qu Ran turned the muzzle of his gun and aimed it at his temple.
"...it's really cold, Dad, Mom..."
I also really want someone to put a piece of clothing on me...
Tears still lingered in her lifeless eyes, and her hand slowly placed on the trigger.
Just as she was about to pull the trigger, a hand gently placed on the barrel of the pistol, and then a coat was draped over Qu Ran's thin and frail body.
"Sorry, Qu Ran."
An apologetic voice came from her ears, and Qu Ran was stunned. She slowly turned her head and looked at the girl squatting beside her.
"I never really cared about your past, I'm sorry..."
Lin Ze gently held Qu Ran in his arms.
"I thought I had brought you back from that darkness, but I didn't expect... I didn't expect your soul was still trapped in it. It was my negligence."
“…”
The girl's hand holding the gun began to tremble, and finally fell slowly.
She let Lin Ze hold her body.
"Are you still cold..." Lin Ze asked gently.
"...Yeah." Qu Ran nodded while sobbing, like a child who was acting like a spoiled child.
"It's cold...it's always cold..."
"It won't be cold anymore. I'll take you home... We'll take you home."
As soon as Lin Ze finished speaking, people from the execution team rushed in from outside the laboratory.
Led by Yan Yu himself, they blocked the entire cannery immediately.
"Director Lin."
Yan Yu walked to Lin Ze and looked at Qu Ran who was shivering in Lin Ze's arms.
"Qu Ran, you are suspected of endangering public safety, intentional injury, and participating in anti-human experiments. You are now being taken back to the Special Management Bureau for investigation."
Facing Yan Yu's words, Qu Ran did not react at all, but just kept trembling.
Yan Yu bit her lip.
This woman is usually very humble to everyone, even to the point of being a little pathological, but she is also very enthusiastic...
Why did it turn out like this.
Or, why, after all this time, have we never realized that she was actually still living in a nightmare?
She said again and again that she was cold.
Time and again, he showed resistance and humility towards people.
Is this also Qu Ran's repeated calls for help to the outside world?
"...take her away."
Yan Yu finally sighed and said to the two members of the execution team.
But she quickly raised her hand to stop the two men.
"Forget it... Let Director Lin take her back, okay, Director Lin?"
Lin Ze knew that Yan Yu was very strict, and she seemed to have changed a lot during this period of time.
She smiled at Yan Yu and said, "You finally got it, little wooden boy."
"Hmph, please don't make such a trifling statement about something that doesn't comply with regulations, Director Lin. This isn't something worth promoting."
After saying that, Yan Yu turned around and walked towards the members of Team 7.
"Yoongi."
Yan Yu looked at Yin Qi lying on the ground.
Li Muhan and Lin Ziyu both felt a pang of fear in their hearts.
We're done for. Our Team Seven has an old grudge against Yan Yu.
Previously, Lin Ziyu had hacked into Yan Yu's terminal system and made her openly play an 18X video during a report meeting. This was... a great shame and humiliation.
Now I don’t know how this girl will torture Yin Qi.
"You are suspected of violating the Special Management Bureau's member management regulations and squad operations regulations, and are suspected of defection."
Lin Ziyu immediately stood in front of Yan Yu.
"...Yan, Captain Yan, can you please show some leniency? Yin Qi went to investigate the Cheshire Cat. She, she just..."
"Acting on one's own initiative after receiving a commission and leaving the organization are serious violations of discipline."
Yan Yu said coldly, then looked at Li Muhan: "This is your man, you can't escape the blame."
Li Muhan scratched his head: "Don't worry, if my people get into trouble, I will not stay out of it, but this matter is not entirely Yin Qi's responsibility."
After saying that, Li Muhan took out his cell phone, but it was not his cell phone, but Yin Qi's cell phone.
"This is Yin Qi's terminal. It records in detail that after receiving the commission, Yin Qi reported the mission through the terminal. However, the terminal malfunctioned, and I was unconscious in bed. She didn't receive any support, so she had to act alone."
Yan Yu looked at Li Muhan coldly.
It was such a clumsy lie that I was too lazy to expose it.
She looked at the terminal in Li Muhan's hand, and the reporting department displayed on it was actually the engineering department.
This is obviously a fake, and it was done with the help of the engineering department... It really is... They have absolutely no regard for rules and laws!
But in the end, Yan Yu did not explode, but sighed instead.
"Well, since the report was submitted but not received, the responsibility lies entirely with the engineering department that maintains the equipment. I will charge all losses caused by this incident on Minister Mo."
Li Muhan swallowed his saliva. He looked at Yan Yu and knew that the other party had seen through him long ago.
But she didn't intend to pursue the matter, but she had to let an official take the blame for this matter.
Doesn’t this fall on Mo Qiao’s head?
"A-choo!"
Mo Qiao was doing his work while holding a wrench when he suddenly sneezed.
"What's wrong, Minister? Do you have a cold?"
"I don't know, I just have a bad feeling."
She began to regret agreeing to help Li Muhan.
． ． ． ． ． ．
Outside the abandoned warehouse.
"team leader."
Yan Yu's adjutant walked up to her with some embarrassment and asked, "Are you really going to let them go like this?"
“…”
Yan Yu suddenly didn't know how to answer. If it was her father, or her previous self, she might not give up. Even if Lin Ze was present, she would forcibly take Qu Ran and Yin Qi away.
But now I don’t know why.
Before doing anything, Yan Yu would think about whether there was anything else that needed to be considered beyond the rules.
This is definitely not something a law enforcement officer should think about.
Looking up at the cold rain falling from the sky, Yan Yu gradually felt that he was not suitable to sit in this position.
Afterwards, Lin Ze brought Qu Ran back to the Special Management Bureau and handed him over to the procuratorate.
The procuratorate will collect evidence and conduct investigations, and eventually initiate a trial against Qu Ran with the adjudication court.
Yin Qi and Li Muhan forcibly dragged Mo Qiao to the execution unit to testify that there was a problem with the terminal maintained by the engineering unit, so Yin Qi's reporting information was mistakenly sent to the engineering department because this information did not fall within the scope of the engineering department's jurisdiction.
So it was ignored.
It's full of loopholes from beginning to end...
Even the procuratorate sent three waves of people to investigate.
Finally, with the involvement of many forces, even the deputy director of the Special Management Bureau, Yue Qing, who stepped in to help clean up this farce full of loopholes, the procuratorate finally decided to drop all charges against Yin Qi.
After all, she hadn't caused any substantial damage.
The same principle also applies to Qu Ran.
But Qu Ran's situation is more complicated.
Not only did she violate the Special Management Bureau regulations, but she also concealed all subsequent investigations of the Cheshire Cat, so she was prosecuted by the Procuratorate and tried by the Arbitration Court.
Qu Ran will be stripped of his position as the head of the Intelligence Department. Due to his unstable mental state, he will be under the supervision of the Special Management Bureau for life.
As such, she would need a guarantor.
According to the principle of avoidance of guarantees for members who violate regulations, Lin Ze, who originally brought him into the Special Management Bureau, and Chang Yue, who signed the document at that time, cannot provide guarantees.
Li Muhan is his old subordinate and cannot be his guarantor either.
If he cannot find a guarantor, Qu Ran will have no choice but to stay in the Forbidden Demon Prison.
But Qu Ran didn't care. Even if he could only stay here forever, it didn't matter anymore.
At least now, she no longer has nightmares every night. Although it is very cold, Lin Ze comes to see her every day and stays with her.
But this situation did not last long, as Qu Ran's guarantor appeared.
Moreover, this guarantor comes from a prominent background and is in full compliance with the procedures.
Captain of the Procuratorate’s Execution Force of the Special Management Bureau.
Yan Jue.
"From today on, I will be your guarantor."
Yan Jue adjusted his glasses and looked at Qu Ran, who was sitting blankly on a chair in the room. He said, "Because of your mental condition, you can continue to stay in the Tianhai City Special Management Bureau. You can come and go freely, but you must be accompanied by a special person. Are you willing to accept this?"
Qu Ran raised his eyes slightly and looked at Yan Jue timidly like a child.
"Can I... continue to live..."
Yan Jue was stunned. He thought Qu Ran would put forward some conditions.
But she didn't expect that her wish would be just like her life.
So humble and so small, yet so full of hope.
"You can continue to do some simple logistical work at the Tianhai City Special Management Bureau and you will also have your own salary. If you need any help, you can contact me."
After saying that, Yan Jue stood up and walked towards the door.
"Please, please wait a moment..."
Qu Ran stood up in a hurry, trembling as she took something out of her pocket, and then she carefully handed a piece of chocolate wafer to Yan Jue.
“…Thank you, thank you…”
Yan Jue turned her head slightly and looked at Qu Ran and the chocolate in her trembling hands.
Finally he took the chocolate, without saying a word, pushed the door open and left the room.
Yan Yu was waiting for him at the door of the room.
"Thank you, Father..."
"I've read the information." Yan Jue didn't even glance at his daughter. He simply said, "As the head of Tianhai City's Intelligence Department, Qu Ran has outstanding personal abilities and has made many contributions to the Tianhai City Special Management Bureau. The intelligence she provided saved your life several times, correct?"
Yan Yu nodded. This girl was always very reserved when facing her father. She lowered her head slightly and her voice was a little unconfident.
Because in her opinion, she had violated the rules.
"Yes, yes! She, she is a good person, but she has been trapped in a nightmare."
Yan Jue turned around and looked at his daughter. "Then raise your heads. You haven't done anything wrong. Remember, Yan Yu, you must abide by the regulations of the Special Management Bureau and have a clear conscience."
After saying that, he handed the chocolate in his hand to Yan Yu.
"Father......"
Yan Yu took the chocolate and watched his father turn and leave.
Then, the man seemed to remember something. He stopped and did not look back.
"After get off work today, I went home to eat. I bought some groceries."
After saying that, the man left without looking back.
Yan Yu was stunned.
Although she was assigned an apartment in Tianhai City, she rarely went back and never cooked for herself.
But can Dad... cook?
I have the impression that my father changed after my mother passed away and became quiet and taciturn.
She slowly clenched the chocolate in her hand. Sometimes, a little hope can spread to everyone's heart through this subtle warmth.
"Yes, Father!"
