Chapter 417 Qiao Wan is missing
Planetary fragments, also known as meteorite fragments, are formed by the collision of asteroids or explosions, forming various fragments floating in space.
That is to say, the minerals or energies contained in the meteorites dropped from the meteor shower are not the same. Different planetary fragments contain different minerals.
So when Lu Lanshan saw the shiny black meteorite, he became curious and wanted to find out what it was. Unexpectedly, as soon as he approached the black meteorite, he was strongly counterattacked by the mutants.
There were a total of 16 people who went out to investigate the cause of the survivors' mutation. Lu Lanshan and his team lost 11 people before they barely escaped from the mutants.
Jiang Yue sent a message saying, "Among the five people who came back alive, except Lu Lanshan who had close contact with the black meteorite, the others have not had close contact with it, so they don't know much about black meteorites."
"Lv Lanshan is currently in a coma, and we don't know when he will wake up. Yu Jie plans to reorganize the team to explore the black meteorite."
"This time, Yu Jie specifically asked Qiao Wan to participate in this operation. I guess she wanted Qiao Wan to store the meteorite in the jade space and bring it back to the underground city."
Xia Xiaoman frowned and replied, "How big is the black meteorite? Can Qiao Wan's jade space hold it?"
Jiang Yue: "It is said that there is a 80-square-meter two-story villa so big that Qiao Wan's space can accommodate two black meteorites."
"I'm not worried about whether Qiao Wan can fit in the meteorite. I'm worried about whether Qiao Wan can reach the black meteorite alive. The mutants are so powerful that it's hard to repel them even if the army is dispatched. Let's observe a minute of silence for Comrade Qiao Wan. I hope she can come back alive."
Xia Xiaoman: “…” There’s no need to be so pessimistic.
Jiang Yue: "Do you want to join this operation? I can help you apply to join."
Xia Xiaoman: "No need, I'm not interested in adventure projects."
Jiang Yue: "Listen to yourself if what you said is true or not. If you are not interested in adventure projects, how can you still know me and Qiao Wan? If you are afraid of death, then you are afraid of death. Say it openly. It's not shameful!"
Xia Xiaoman: "Yes, I am afraid of death, so I am not involved in your actions."
Jiang Yue: "It's too late. I've already told Yu Jie to include you."
Xia Xiaoman: "Are you kidding me?"
Jiang Yue: "I never joke." Attached is the chat history with Yu Jie.
Xia Xiaoman's eyes widened, "Jiang Yue, I'm a *****, your uncle's *****, delete me from the list immediately!"
Jiang Yue: "Hu Ying will also go on this operation. The military will also send five armored vehicles and 80 special forces."
Xia Xiaoman: "There are so many people going, why did you add my name? Do you want me to cheer for the special forces?"
Jiang Yue on the other end of the phone was speechless. "You usually seem quite smart, why can't you figure it out right now?"
Xia Xiaoman certainly understood Jiang Yue's purpose of asking her to participate in this action, but she didn't want to attract attention in this way.
There are so many people and equipment involved in this operation. If she goes along, she basically doesn't need to take any action unless something unexpected happens. She just needs to quietly stand aside and act like an invisible person.
But participating in this operation means that she has her name on the military and official record, which will make it easier for her to do things in the future.
In addition, if the results of the black meteorite investigation are beneficial to mankind, she may also benefit from participating in this operation. If it is harmful to mankind, she will also be the first to know.
But this way, she would be exposed to the public, and it would be inconvenient for her to do anything bad secretly in the future.
Xia Xiaoman thought for a long time and sighed. Forget it, since Jiang Yue had already reported her name, she should not waste Jiang Yue's kindness.
"When do we leave? I'll ask for leave in advance."
Jiang Yue: "Three days later, the military will use drones to investigate the black meteorite. Once the location of the meteorite and the number of mutants are determined, the convoy will be arranged to set off."
Xia Xiaoman: "Okay, remind me the day before departure and I'll set an alarm." Jiang Yue replied OK and went offline.
Although he knew that special forces would protect them during the operation three days later, Xia Xiaoman would never entrust his life and property to others.
After deciding to participate in this operation, Xia Xiaoman checked all the weapons he currently had and prepared all the weapons he could use. He then strengthened his training, mainly training his speed.
She had seen videos of mutants, and she was no match for them in terms of strength or speed, so she didn't plan to fight them at close range, she just needed to shoot them before they got close to her.
So for two consecutive days, after Xia Xiaoman got home from get off work and had dinner, he kept practicing the actions of drawing a gun and shooting, trying to get the gun out, load it and shoot in the shortest time possible.
On the third day, Xia Xiaoman continued to practice shooting at home. Suddenly, the phone rang, Xia Xiaoman picked up the phone, and Jiang Yue's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone, "Xiaoman, is Qiao Wan with you?"
Xia Xiaoman was stunned for a moment, "No, I haven't seen her for a while. Is she missing?"
Jiang Yue hummed, "I was in touch with her yesterday, but I haven't been able to contact her since nine o'clock this morning."
"Have you contacted Hu Ying?" Xia Xiaoman asked.
"I've asked a long time ago, and Doctor Hu hasn't seen Qiao Wan either, and Yu Jie hasn't heard from Qiao Wan either."
Jiang Yue typed on the computer while talking on the phone: "I checked the surveillance of the underground city. Qiao Wan has not left the official dormitory since she returned last night. The surveillance footage did not show any strangers going to her dormitory. I suspect someone may have tampered with the surveillance."
Xia Xiaoman asked, "Have you checked the surveillance cameras at the entrance and exit of the underground city?"
"I checked it, and there's nothing unusual. Yu Jie sent someone to check with the underground city guards. The number of people entering and leaving the underground city from last night to today matches. Qiao Wan should not have left the underground city yet."
We are going to go out to explore the black meteorite tomorrow. If Qiao Wan is missing now, tomorrow's operation cannot be carried out on schedule. Yu Jie has sent people to inquire about Qiao Wan's whereabouts, but the underground city is so large that it is not easy to find Qiao Wan in a short time.
Xia Xiaoman thought for a moment and said, "Do you have a photo of Qiao Wan? Send it to me and I'll ask my friends to help me find it."
"Okay, I'll send the photos to you now." Jiang Yue said and sent the photos immediately.
After Xia Xiaoman got the photos, he immediately sent them to Li Yu'e and Chen Peiqiong, asking them to help find Qiao Wan.
Not long after the photo was sent out, Xia Xiaoman received a message from Chen Peiqiong.
