The fact that the two of them were standing in the epicenter of the explosion without any problems is bound to arouse suspicion.
Sure enough, as soon as the two who had moved to a new location stood still, Jiang Ci led a group of people up to the second floor.
Lin Yue held Cang Yu's hand and stared straight at Jiang Ci, who was leading the way. She saw the medals on Jiang Ci's shoulder and noticed that there was a person next to him who was deliberately two steps behind him. Without guessing, she knew that this man must be the one in charge of this operation.
Jiang Ci raised an eyebrow slightly when he saw the two of them.
Before coming up, he had always thought that it was someone from their military who had sneaked in, but when he saw these two people, his idea was instantly overturned.
Those two were definitely the ones who made such a big fuss here just now.
Judging from their extraordinary demeanor, their fearlessness in the face of terrorists and military personnel, and their ability to clear out the shopping mall that they had been unable to conquer for so long, their capabilities are beyond doubt.
But how did these two get in?
Leaving aside the snipers inside the building and the people guarding the entrances and exits, even they who were watching from the outside never saw how they got in.
Jiang Ci walked up to the two men and extended his right hand to Lin Yue and Cang Yu: "Hello, comrades. I am Jiang Ci. We are from the J City Base Military Region. May I ask where you two are from?"
He used to be at the J City base, so he probably hadn't seen these two people before.
Since the base was first built, he has often patrolled various parts of the base. If he had seen two people who looked so outstanding, he would definitely remember them.
Cang Yu and Lin Yue looked at Jiang Ci's outstretched hand, and Cang Yu did not hesitate to reach out and shake it.
"Hello, Commander Jiang. We are from W City and just arrived here recently. We want to go to J City to find our relatives. My name is Cang Yu, and this is my girlfriend, Lin Yue."
Cang Yu had already made his point clear, and Lin Yue simply smiled and nodded at Jiang Ci without saying anything more.
Cang Yu was right to state their origins directly. G City is very close to J City. If they really wanted to investigate, even if they lied and said they were from here, they could still be found out in this apocalyptic world.
"I see. How did you two get in?" Jiang Ci didn't beat around the bush and directly asked his question.
Cang Yu and Lin Yue exchanged a glance, but Cang Yu did not answer.
Lin Yue began, “We arrived in G City over a week ago. The day we arrived, we saw the mall doors were open and there was no one inside, so we thought we'd come in and see if there was anything to eat. After all, in this world, nobody complains about having too much food. Unexpectedly, after we came in, these people dragged four of us into the mall and blocked the doors and windows. Then we heard them say that there were military personnel outside. Commander Jiang, we originally wanted to wait for you to break in and rescue us, but we didn't expect that after waiting for over a week, you still hadn't broken in. We had no choice but to take their explosives when they weren't looking, which is why we made such a commotion.”
A mix of truth and falsehood is necessary to make people believe it. As for how they knew these people had been besieged for over a week, that must be thanks to Kong Ling.
Things have come to this point, and even the ethereal live broadcasts have improved.
Four people?
Jiang Ci's eyes showed a hint of emotion, but he didn't show it on his face.
"Miss Lin, among those four people, isn't there an older man and the other three around thirty years old?"
Lin Yue nodded: "That's true."
"Miss Lin, Mr. Cang, could you please tell me where these four people are now?"
Their mission this time was for Professor Mu and the other three; it would be best if they were alive.
Lin Yue didn't answer Jiang Ci's question immediately, but instead asked, "Commander Jiang, are these four people very special? Are they very important people?"
As an ordinary citizen with some ability, it's perfectly normal for her to ask more questions.
"It is indeed very important, but we need to keep most of the details confidential."
Upon hearing the word "secret," Lin Yue immediately thought of Kong Ling's actions and lost all interest in asking questions.
“We rescued these four men and hid them in a place no one would expect. However, Commander Jiang, the two leaders among them, one named Mike and the other named Laws, have disappeared. Are you sure you don’t want to capture them first?”
People are in space, which is not only unexpected, but also an unexpected place that cannot be spoken of.
Jiang Ci knew, of course, that Mike and Rolls were still missing, and his people were already looking for them. Besides the shopping mall on the first to third floors, there were twelve more floors above.
These two can't escape downhill, they can only run uphill. Although there are many of them, it will still take some effort to find them.
Jiang Ci stared at Lin Yue, carefully observing her facial expression, and asked, "Miss Lin, why don't you take me to find those four people first? They are all academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and they are very important to the country. Professor Mu is injured, and we don't know if he can make it through. We need to find them as soon as possible."
He didn't completely believe what Lin Yue said.
Lin Yue saw that Jiang Ci's expression left no room for doubt; it seemed that he had to find the person now.
She turned to look at Cang Yu, who nodded.
Lin Yue thought for a while before saying, "Then you wait here, I'm going to the restroom, I'll find someone for you when I come back."
It's natural for a person to need to use the restroom; there's nothing wrong with that.
“We’ll go with you,” Hu Lin, standing next to Jiang Ci, blurted out.
Cang Yu's fierce gaze shot towards Hu Lin, looking at him as if he wanted to devour him whole.
Lin Yue looked at him, her expression saying, "Are you sick in the head?"
Realizing what he had said, Hu Lin awkwardly scratched his head, unsure how to explain.
Jiang Ci, who had never shown any emotion, couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed this time. The person he brought was too fierce.
“Miss Lin, Hu Lin…” Jiang Ci didn’t know how to continue.
Lin Yue said with a half-smile, "Commander Jiang, it's just going to the toilet. I don't need your people to protect me while I'm 'going' to the toilet."
After saying that, she left Cang Yu behind and went up to the third floor.
There are also military personnel on the third floor. They have already searched the restrooms, but not the restrooms. Just as the soldiers were about to rush into the restrooms, Lin Yue came to the women's restroom and stood at the door.
"Comrade, I'm going to the restroom. You can search me after I'm done!"
The shopping mall was very large, and the restrooms were separated for men and women. She wanted to use the women's restroom, and the soldiers couldn't very well stop her from going.
Upon arriving at the restroom, Lin Yue released Professor Mu and the other three, tossing them into a small stall. Then, she called out from inside, "Come in, the person you're looking for is inside."
Upon hearing this, the people outside immediately went in. Seeing Lin Yue struggling to get the person out, they immediately went to help. At the same time, someone went to report to Jiang Ci.
Jiang Ci arrived quickly; Lin Yue washed her hands inside and came out, and he came up in just two minutes.
Cang Yu naturally followed, walking up to Lin Yue's side with a wary look in his eyes, ready to protect her at any moment.
