Chapter 24 Stained with Sin
He looked flustered and uneasy, but Boss Jin knew in his heart what he had done—he had done something terribly wrong!
But this could be a trap.
Tan Fu didn't want freedom, and she may have informed the "Star Fortress" supervisors after meeting with the doctor.
What a well-behaved and obedient puppy!
Boss Jin was furious! He also sneered inwardly.
He felt both disheartened and confused.
The doctor has never been to "This Shore Residence".
Their contact with the doctor had no fixed location other than that small, publicly accessible shrine.
Even doctors don't know about "Ci An Ju"!
Cui Hongfei, the young chef, might be being followed, but he's not someone who can afford to eat at high-end restaurants. He always enters through the densely packed residential area, passing through secret passages to reach the shrine.
The entrance to the residential area was across the street from his shop, and there were high-level enhanced individuals guarding the secret passage. If anyone was following him, they would definitely be discovered!
Did the young chef betray him?
Or did the pioneers inadvertently reveal information about the cult during their communication with Tan Fu?
In any case, the poison probably won't take effect.
But at least that pioneer is still underground, and they also have one here—the insect oil refinery to the west...
If we launch a coordinated attack, why can't we kill that obedient little dog on the spot?!
......
Despite his resentment, Mr. Jin still had faith in his "pioneers".
But the "pioneer" underground is not in good condition.
It lies dormant in the cold storage.
The sub-zero temperatures in the cold storage were nothing to the resilient mutated white priest.
However, an hour before the operation, the temperature in the cold storage began to drop.
At first, the temperature dropped slowly and was difficult to detect. However, after about ten minutes, the rate of cooling suddenly accelerated, catching the White Priest off guard!
The insects are afraid of the cold, and the female insects need to choose a place with a heat source to give birth. Humans even choose to fight in the twelfth lunar month when they fight the war in South China.
Temperatures as low as -30 degrees Celsius will seriously damage the bodies and combat capabilities of fallen insects!
Before the signal for action could be received, the White Priest temporarily tried to block the air vents with his tentacles.
But its tentacles were stuck to it. Enraged, it severed its tentacles, its entire body turned into a thin sheet, and enduring the extreme cold, it squeezed out through the gap in the cold storage door!
It had some difficulty maintaining its mimicry, but after its entire body was thinly protruded, it was still not discovered by any humans and did not cause any disturbance!
It was extremely proud of itself!
As soon as it emerged, it heard another white priest's message: "Humans have set a trap!"
The white priest, who had just transformed from a sheet of paper into a thick pancake, froze, his mimicry completely broken.
The crucian carp soup chef was still immersed in joy and pride, but he felt a little unwell. He lowered his head and hesitated whether to go to the infirmary.
Then he saw the jade-white "pancake" that was extending tentacles, and screamed at the top of his lungs!
The pancake quickly transformed into a basin, which swept all the ingredients in the kitchen, especially the meat, into its gaping, abyssal maw.
Its body rapidly solidified and expanded, and countless tentacles grew out!
The 4th and 6th guard squads had already rushed towards the kitchen, but the White Priest, like a white lightning bolt, cleaved a path between them and headed straight for the place where the aroma of food was strongest!
It stormed into the cafeteria, its imposing presence overwhelming, but its waving tentacles first swept across the food on all the long tables.
This fallen insect is like a thousand-armed Guanyin with each arm holding a treasure, except that each of its tentacles is curled up with hooves!
Although it's strangely funny, its pollution is undeniable!
After Song Fanyu gave the order, the people in the canteen evacuated through the three doors at the front and back.
Tan Shou ran the fastest, dashing and bumping his way through the nearest left side door, and was the first to squeeze out.
But the White Priest arrived so quickly that Tan Shou had only taken a few steps outside the dining hall when it rushed in.
Within a few steps, in a moment of terror, Tan Shou felt a sudden, intense headache and dizziness strike him.
His vision blurred, his heart pounded like a drum, and his fear intensified!
One step, two steps, his steps became smaller and slower...
He has changed.
When a deadly poison destroys the body, the human body instinctively wants cells to regenerate and resist death. Isn't this a form of poisoning?
The screams of the fallen insects and the cries of people could be heard from the corridor outside the door.
Tan Fu was surrounded and was retreating through another door.
In such a noisy environment, with so much commotion and noise, she seemed to hear screams coming from over there all at once, and turned her head to look.
Qi An also turned his head to look at Tan Fu.
The little girl is not a well-behaved puppy that has been raised.
She is a wolf stained with the blood of evil!
Of course, she was too; she was Tan Fu's accomplice.
Today, in this underground fortress, every innocent person who has perished under the White Priest's tentacles is stained with blood!
The screams of humans and insects, the chaotic footsteps, and the ceaseless hum of machines swirled together into a dazzling cluster of stars.
Qi An felt as if he had returned to Tan Fu's mental world.
Her clone, navigating through the chaotic data stream, also felt this way; sometimes, jumping too far made her feel like she was getting motion sickness.
Starlink is Starlink, and the intranet is the intranet. Tan Fu was never allowed to access the base's intranet.
But she went inside.
Just as Tan Fu will grow from a 10-year-old child into a 16-year-old girl, her innate superpower will also transform from a novice to a bug-level ability!
The people of Star Fortress were unaware that she could freely access a user's terminal device, and even less aware that she had already been able to silently bypass the firewall of the base's internal network!
As fate would have it, Tan Fu was able to do this a year and a half ago, after he met Qi An.
At that time, Tan Fu was a ghost, a tormented and divided man.
She was horrified by her brother's words, such as "I'm very disappointed in you" and "Mom and Dad must be disappointed in you, they don't even visit your dreams!"
But along with the fear came an uncontrollable rage!
Why did she disappoint her brother?
Is she not trying hard enough? Not obedient enough?
How much effort and obedience is required to avoid disappointment?
She has given it her all!
Tan Fu searched for Tan Shou's figure in every camera and every eye looking down from above.
She soon spotted Tan Shou walking with a young girl in a very upscale residential area.
Young men and women walked side by side, neither too close nor too far. A little girl of about 10 years old walked in front of them, sometimes squatting down by the roadside to pick flowers and grass, and sometimes being attracted by a butterfly, jumping up and down to catch it.
She was loud and boisterous, often eliciting gasps or scolding from the young woman.
The young woman said to Tan Shou somewhat shyly, "My sister is a bit mischievous."
"That's great. Girls this age should be jumping around, playing and having fun," Tan Shou said with a smile.
"She's really going too far. She can't sit still for even a second. My mom and I are driven crazy watching her do her homework every day!" the young woman complained, but she still had a smile on her face and kept her eyes on the little girl.
"Xiaoyu is still young, whether she does her homework or not is not a big deal."
Being lively and playful is innate, and that's what makes children so likable.
"Is it only comforting to look at something like... lifeless and unpredictable?" Tan Shou asked.
He omitted his last sentence, but Tan Fu heard it clearly because after she discovered Tan Shou, she immediately switched to the young woman's phone and turned on the microphone.
"There's no need to please anyone, much less make anyone feel comfortable..." The young woman glanced at Tan Shou, her gaze somewhat strange.
“We’re just worried that she might lack focus, or get into danger while playing too wildly…” she said.
The conversation continued, then seemed to slow down. After walking along a tree-lined path, the young man and woman seemed to have something to say about each other and gradually fell silent.
It was summer, and the cicadas were chirping desperately. Tan Fu, in his clone who didn't even have a physical body, felt a slight dizziness.
Or is it cold?
Who is that lifeless, unpredictable child whose name his brother omitted?
No need to guess, right?
Her brother thinks that lively and playful children are more likable, but why does he have to ask her to put away her playfulness and work hard every day?
Perhaps working or not working doesn't matter at all?
Perhaps nothing else matters; she is not important.
My brother will never like her because she's just a good computer, and the phrase "I'm disappointed in you" is his login password.
Lan Jiarou was always anxious about Tan Fu's changing personality.
At some point a year ago, Tan Fu seemed unchanged, yet also as if a complete transformation had taken place.
Lan Jiarou had some tricks she was used to.
When Tan Fu performed well, she would secretly ask the chef to add a dish she liked, and also ask those who often saw Tan Fu to smile at her more and say a few more words of praise.
When Tan Fu misbehaved, Lan Jiarou made the food bland and arranged for many disapproving glances and whispers to appear around her.
These tricks don't seem to work as well as they used to?
Tan Fu had heard her emphasize these tactics several times in departmental meetings and small meetings between supervisors.
After entering the intranet, she entered "Star Base".
Entering the headquarters of the network defense line was even more difficult and dangerous; Tan Fu almost got captured!
But she has plenty of time and patience to delve into it.
She searched for loopholes both online and offline simultaneously, with astonishing efficiency. After a month of effort, she finally got in!
She is a little monster with a chain around her neck, and she is also an omnipresent electronic ghost floating above the base!
A ghost, having seen through the hearts of men, should now utter those words with a cold tone:
There are still 30 million people on the mainland. Who's interested in watching this? It's all the same old trivial stuff over and over again.
I only care about people I like, people who are valuable, and... damn people!
There are still too many people in the world who deserve to die.
Tan Fu was surprised when the doctor first tentatively asked him a question.
She appeared confused and aggrieved, clearly having taken the doctor's words to heart.
But after logging back in, she immediately accessed the doctor's phone.
She was very careful, and she would thoroughly clear the running logs every time she entered or left.
During one of her most ordinary morning walks, on the lawn bathed in the morning light, part of her was huddled in her phone, listening to a voice chatting with a doctor.
They started off chatting fairly casually, but as they talked, the voice began to preach.
They've kept in touch, sometimes taking a walk together in the morning, sometimes walking together after get off work, and sometimes meeting up for dinner when they have a rare break.
They didn't meet frequently, but their conversations had shifted from gradually spreading their doctrines to recruiting spies!
That's really interesting!
However, the person meeting with the doctor did not use a mobile phone or any non-military connected electronic devices, and Tan Fu almost lost track of the clue.
However, the doctor would go to that small, public shrine, where there were other worshippers as well.
Having already heard about the missionary work, how could Tan Fu not know that there was something wrong with this little shrine?
She divided herself into many parts and had "close contact" with the worshippers who had mobile phones.
A vast amount of information has woven a net, and she has long since locked her heart on "This Shore Residence" within this net!
