Chapter 404
In the corridor inside the medical station, a medical cart was pushed out quietly. Several people wearing medical protective clothing pushed the cart out stealthily. Ying Chenlin was lying on the medical cart and watched them pass by several monitors. When the monitors did not show an alarm, he knew that these people were fully prepared.
The surveillance cameras were all at high positions, so the height and face issues were well hidden in the footage. These people should have checked the location of the surveillance cameras carefully. When the medical cart was pushed through two corridors, Ying Chenlin realized why this group of people wanted him for help. There were limited critically ill patients in their isolation area, and Ying Chenlin happened to be one of them. As long as he registered to go out for a check-up, pushing his medical cart over would be a universal shield.
Chi Liz looked at Ying Chenlin who was lying on the bed: "You said there were a few more surveillance cameras in the corridor. Where are they located?"
"It seems invisible." Ying Chenlin carefully took out the light computer: "Do you want me to ask for you?"
When Chi Liz saw You Su and the other two appearing on his chat interface, he shook his head like a rattle.
Ying Chenlin had no choice but to put away the laptop.
"Have you checked everything?"
"I checked, and the medical staff are not here."
"Don't worry, everyone in your base has gone to the meeting. There are not many people here. We can make a quick decision."
While they were talking, the medical vehicle had been pushed to the first door card. Ji Qingfeng and Zhao Lejie stepped forward and started trying the first level password given by Alex. The password logic was to refresh every 15 minutes. They entered the first password incorrectly, and an error red light appeared on the display.
Others: “?”
The SLY man pushing the medical cart: "What are you doing!"
Zhao Lejie: "Fuck, a little nervous."
Ji Qingfeng flipped through his laptop: "Wait, let me confirm it."
"We're just starting to try, can you two do it?!" Hu Luobu's hair stood on end: "If the alarm sounds, you two will be fully responsible!"
Ying Chenlin looked at them and suddenly realized that it was unreliable: "Are you the only ones running away? Are the others not leaving?"
"Only the few of us who were in the lead knew about this. We didn't tell anyone else." Ji Qingfeng said, "The fewer people who know about this, the better. Don't worry, I'll ask them to change into the clothes of the staff at their base. Xiao Ming and the others in Ji Feng have surveillance shielding jammers. As long as we open the door, everyone can get out."
After Ji Qingfeng finished speaking, Zhao Lejie confidently showed the small device on his waist, which was the surveillance shielding jammer specially provided by Jifeng.
Ying Chenlin then suddenly realized that this group of people were acting in secret. In order to avoid being discovered by unknown undercover agents, they did not tell anyone. Shuguang and SLY took the lead, and only after the door was opened did they notify the others to change into simple clothes and slip out of the door.
Hearing this, he silently pulled up the quilt to cover his face and asked, "Have you told Captain Qi and the others about this action?"
"No, it's too easy to be exposed if we tell Captain Qi." Hu Luobu was walking beside them and said, "Last time, there was an undercover agent in the group. For this kind of secret operation, the more people know about it, the easier it is to be exposed. We will contact Captain Qi when we get out."
Lin Yao: "Captain SLY is here to help. They will tell me any news that comes their way."
"Speaking of which, our captain didn't get back to me 10 minutes ago, and I don't know what he's doing." The two SLY guys pushing the carts said, "It seems like he's busy with something else."
Ying Chenlin stopped talking and pulled the quilt up to cover his face.
Outside the quarantine area, in Lieutenant General Lin's ward, the adjutant was relaying the situation on the front line to Lin Yi, "The pollutant beast tide in the second star field is basically under control. The fourth star field is still not so good. The other star fields are sending troops to help."
"What's the situation at the border?" Lin Yi asked.
The deputy's peripheral vision fell on You Su, who was sitting nearby and playing with his computer, and he answered cautiously, "Commander Wei said that under the current situation, we can only deal with the beast tide first, and then rebuild a higher defense line. We are already coordinating with the Star Alliance and considering cooperating with the Mecha Alliance to build two defense lines at the same time..."
He didn't expect to come at such a bad time. The rare time between father and son was interrupted by his work report.
You Su didn't hear much news. He only heard about the situation on the border. He knew that after the Battle of Kronos, the development and consolidation of the Star Alliance would have to continue for at least two to three years. Lin Yi did not hide it from him, which meant that this was also related to the Mecha Alliance. Considering the Star Alliance's actions of contacting the Alliance's Mecha Division in the past two days, he could almost guess the movements of these leaders.
Seeing that the water cup on the table next to him was half full, he picked up the cup and went outside to get some water. When he came back, Lin Yi's adjutant had already reported the news. Seeing You Su coming back, he didn't say anything else.
Generally in this situation, You Su knew that the details of the work they were going to discuss next were not something he, a non-border military personnel, could listen to.
You Su put down the cup and said, "You guys chat, I'm leaving first."
Lin Yi tilted his head to look at his son. You Su would come for a while every day. When he came, he would either say a few words or just sit there and wait for him to speak. But even though the father and son didn't talk much, You Su still came every day and spent more time in the ward than the father and son had spent together in the past ten years.
"Is the money enough?" Lin Yi took the initiative to ask: "The Mecha Alliance has many competitions, and the weapons are updated quickly."
You Su didn't seem to expect him to say this. After being surprised, he said, "It's enough."
Lin Yi has known You Su's movements over the years. After You Su left the border, he made a lot of money as a mercenary. With the inheritance left to him by You Yuying, this kid has never lacked the ability to make money, and he is not short of money. "I have a lot of S-level wind-attribute attack energy crystals. When the beast tide issue is resolved, I'll have someone give them to you when I go back."
You Su replied calmly: "Isn't your mecha weapon of thunder attribute?"
"I killed them by the way." Lin Yi: "I didn't use them either. I just kept saving them until there were more."
The adjutant next to him was silent. In recent years, few of them have personally gone to the front line. Wind-attribute attack crystals are too rare and they have to be sold at high prices at auctions outside. But Lieutenant General Lin still asked people to look for S-level wind-attribute attacks, and even exchanged better resources with others. However, the wind-attribute energy crystals he had saved over the years were more than the thunder-attribute energy crystals he had used. Some border officers even came to buy wind-attribute energy crystals, but the lieutenant general did not sell them.
Later, when his adjutant spent more time in contact with You Su on his behalf, he found out that these wind-attribute attack crystals had no other uses. He knew that his son liked them, so he kept them and wanted to give them to him someday when he had the chance. If there was no chance, he would only leave them to him in the future.
You Su subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when he saw Lin Yi's eyes, the words of refusal on his lips turned into something else. He didn't look at Lin Yi, but scrolled through the pages on the light brain with his hand, and said awkwardly: "The wind attribute is enough recently, and there are energy crystal subsidies at the KID base... If you have the resources, please help me keep an eye out for fire attribute energy crystals."
Lin Yi paused: "Fire attribute energy crystal?"
"Um."
You Su has been looking at a lot of fire-attributed supernatural crystals recently. Ever since he knew that the wind and thunder cannon that he used most often was made by Ying Chenlin using the supernatural crystals left by his father, he has always wanted to give Ying Chenlin something. Several times, he saw high-priced supernatural crystals, but before he could make a move, he was seen and stopped by his money-grubber in the family, who said that he had enough supernatural crystals and the resources at the auction were too expensive.
The last time he talked to Ying Chenlin about it, he compared resource prices with him and even reminded him not to buy them before going to bed.
You Su had enough savings and wasn't short of that little bit of money, but when he wanted to give something to Ying Chenlin, he wanted to find the best and most suitable one. There were many more energy crystals for fire attacks than wind attacks, but finding a suitable one since Ying Chenlin had never had a fire attack type became a limitation.
"Any functional or offensive type is fine, as long as it is special. No need for large-scale attacks or enhancements..."
You Su paused after speaking, "It's almost fine."
Lin Yi listened and said, "Okay, I'll have someone keep an eye out for it."
After hearing the conversation between the father and son, the adjutant beside him had already memorized the types of energy crystals. In the later stage, in addition to the wind energy crystals, they would also need to find a fire energy crystal. Lieutenant General Aris in the third star field was an avid energy crystal enthusiast, and there were also those in the fourth star field...
At this moment, a locator on You Su's wrist suddenly lit up, and Lin Yi's sight immediately fell on You Su's hand. That locator was a special locator made in the third star field. It was expensive and was something You Yuying left for You Su.
Lin Yi also has one in his hand, but his locator will no longer light up.
The locator will light up, indicating that the target distance displacement bound by the tracker has exceeded the limit value set by the tracker.
"What happened?" Lin Yi asked.
You Su had already turned on the positioning system when the locator lit up and set the short-range limit value so that when Ying Chenlin came for an examination, he would be able to find the examination room more easily. He remembered that there were no safety examinations today, but now the blue mark representing Ying Chenlin on the positioning system had passed the first blockade door of the intensive care unit and was heading towards the main control room in the medical area.
When You Su saw this situation, he called Ying Chenlin.
As soon as the communication was broadcast and the screen lit up, the communication connection showed that it had been hung up.
You Su: “?”
Outside the main control room of the medical station, Ying Chenlin was lying on the bed waiting. When the communicator that was pressed down rang, it alerted everyone around him. Ji Qingfeng and Zhao Lejie came over almost at the same time, and hurriedly hung up Ying Chenlin's phone for fear of alerting the surrounding medical robots.
Ying Chenlin stared blankly at the call that had been accidentally hung up, and pointed at the name on the note, "You Su's phone number."
Both of them: “?”
"???"
"Fuck, why did you hang up?" Ji Qingfeng almost pinched Zhao Lejie's neck, "That's Brother You's phone number!"
Zhao Lejie didn't know why his hands were so quick, "Damn, didn't you tell me to turn it off?"
On the other side, Lieutenant General Lin's adjutant noticed that You Su's communication signal showed a hang-up prompt. This seemed to be the first time he saw You Su being hung up.
Lieutenant General Lin and his adjutant were silent. You Su stood up from his seat and said, "You guys talk first. I'll go find someone."
His optical brain quickly switched to Luo Xu's contact information. Before he dialed the number, he looked at the adjutant next to him and asked, "Do you have the key to the door?"
The adjutant glanced at Lin Yi's expression and quickly found a newly refreshed key on the optical computer system. "The first door is valid for 15 minutes, but the other two are not."
"Thanks." You Su memorized the key, "I'll get someone to come back right away."
Outside the corridor of the medical control room, Ying Chenlin looked at the hung-up interface. You Su had only typed one line. He looked at the [Hanged up] prompt and was considering how to type and explain to You Su.
Hu Luobu and his partner, who had stolen the key from the control room, ran out quickly. Hu Luobu said, "We got it. Let's retreat immediately!"
Ji Qingfeng lowered his head and sent a message: "Wait, I will send the key to Xiao Ming and the others so that they can also take action."
A group of people pushed forward. After walking a few steps, they suddenly heard footsteps coming from the other end of the corridor. The footsteps were gentle and accompanied by voices. Everyone who heard the sound became alert and immediately relaxed their pace.
"Medical staff? Or robots?" asked the SLY mecha master.
Hu Luobu used his excellent eyesight as a gunner and mecha master, "You know what, those two look quite familiar."
"???" Zhao Lejie's hair stood on end: "Didn't you say that all the acquaintances went to the meeting? Where did the acquaintances come from?"
Chi Liz continued, "It seems to be Boss Zhang from Jifeng and Coach Jiang from KID."
Everyone: “?”
Ying Chenlin: “?”
Ji Qingfeng quickly pulled Ying Chenlin's quilt tighter. Ying Chenlin had just sent half a message to You Su when his eyes suddenly went dark.
In the distance, two people turned the corner of the corridor, talking as they walked.
Jiang Simiao didn't meet any acquaintances along the way. The medical station in the Fifth Star Region was quite large, and he almost got lost. Fortunately, he met Brother Zhang and walked together. "I didn't expect you to come here. Are you here to deliver weapons as well? It's been a long time."
"Long time no see... Are you free to come over?" When Brother Zhang heard Jiang Simiao's voice, he thought of the miserable half month in the past. Faced with the mountains of materials in KID's online store, he almost died suddenly on the night shift. He finally took a leave to go on a business trip to the border to deliver weapons, but who knew that he would meet Jiang Simiao who was also on a business trip.
"We can't help it. We are short of staff. Even our best customer service representative has asked for leave."
Jiang Simiao explained: "Weapons are more important, so I am the only one who can come here."
Brother Zhang: "Can't you hire more people for your online store?"
Jiang Simiao sighed, "I was planning to recruit him, but now my working capital is tight, so I have to put it on hold."
The two of them walked in while talking, and suddenly noticed the medical staff coming towards them. Zhang was about to make way for the medical staff pushing the medical bed, but he was immediately attracted by the tall man among them. "This Fifth Star Region is really different from ours. The medical staff here are really good-looking... but the short ones are also quite short. There's a short guy squeezed in among the big ones, about the same size as your team leader Yao."
Jiang Simiao: “?”
As soon as the words fell, Brother Zhang and Jiang Simiao suddenly realized something, and they both looked back.
The medical vehicle that passed by stopped for a moment, and the moment Jiang Simiao shouted, the medical vehicle ran away. During the running, a head protection hat that had not been locked in time fell off, revealing an extremely familiar bright bald head, which was 100% similar to Zhao Lejie!
This bald guy, this height, isn’t he someone from their own base? !
Brother Zhang: “?” “Stop!” Jiang Simiao turned his head and said, “Lin Yao, stop!”
As soon as they heard the sound of pursuit from behind and saw Jiang Simiao and Brother Zhang chasing after them, everyone immediately increased their running speed.
The SLY mecha master exerted his great brute force at this time, and almost lifted the entire medical bed. Ying Chenlin, who was lying on the bed, was almost thrown off. He hurriedly held the handle of the bedside, "Wait, direction——"
"Where is the maintenance room?!"
"It seems like on the left!"
"Damn, run faster, you're running in the wrong direction."
“Two turns ahead!”
Lin Yao hurriedly looked at the map: "The map Alex gave me says to go east! The maintenance room is in the east. Push open the door and take the elevator down to the basement and you will be there."
Everyone looked towards the east. The SLY mecha driver slammed on the brakes without hesitation and rushed east with the medical vehicle. From afar, they saw a big door at the end of the east corridor, and it seemed that the door was not closed tightly.
In the meeting room that was temporarily arranged outside the isolation area of the medical station, there were some temporary chairs. The captains of the Mecha Alliance and their team members who were in a meeting were listening to the remote speeches of their leaders. During the period, accompanied by the leaders' future prospects and excessive expectations, the nearly two-hour long speech had hypnotized the other mecha divisions. Except for Qi Sicheng and other Dawn Captains who were sitting upright and listening to the superiors' instructions on subsequent assistance in clearing pollutants at the border, the other mecha divisions were either asleep or already browsing their light computers.
There were not many people at the KID base. Lu Xi was accompanying Huo Yan to sit in jail and listen to the lecture. Seeing Wu Qingshuang openly browsing the Star Network to buy clothes on her laptop, she glanced over and said, "Don't you want to listen?"
"Hmm?" Wu Qingshuang said calmly, looking up at the virtual screen in the distance, "I'm listening. It won't interfere with other things."
Alice's head had already moved closer to Lu Xi and Wu Qingshuang, looking at the shopping carts in their computers, completely ignoring other actions. "This looks good. Is it useful?"
Wu Qingshuang said: "It's useful, I'll send it to you."
Seeing this, Alice took a fancy to a few more items in Luxi's shopping cart and said with relish, "I want this lipstick, too."
Wen Yi, who was sitting next to Huo Yan, saw that he was editing the message with a frown on his face, "You haven't finished writing it yet?"
Qi Sicheng also tilted his head to look over. It was rare to see Huo Yan, who was good at socializing, encounter something difficult to solve. "Do you need help?"
"...No need for that. He didn't reply to my message." Huo Yan had been hesitating these past few days on how to tactfully tell other people in the base about Ying Chenlin and You Su's relationship. Although the Mecha Alliance did not prohibit romance within the team, given how much Shen Xingtang and Jiang Simiao valued Ying Chenlin, especially Shen Xingtang, it would be a big deal if they knew about this. He had come up with a perfect excuse in the past two days and was planning to find Jiang Simiao to change his tone, but Jiang Simiao hadn't replied to his message for two hours.
Something was out of the ordinary, so Huo Yan started to worry, “This shouldn’t be the case.”
Ke Lin looked at the group and said, "Speaking of news, don't you think the group is a little quiet?"
The mecha master group has been very lively these past few days. The idle mecha masters have not been able to go out and can only share everything in the group all day. It was quiet for a while yesterday because of the undercover, but today the group was a little too quiet. In the past, this group of people would ask about things before the meeting was over, but now there is no sound at all. The most active Zhao Lejie and Ji Qingfeng are like mutes.
"I just sent a message to Zhao Lejie." Qi Sicheng said calmly: "He didn't reply."
At this time, there was a sudden sound of running in the conference room where all the captains were. Then there was a bang at the back. The next second, the door was slammed open. The mecha technicians in medical uniforms pushing the medical cart and the leaders of various bases who were having a meeting in the conference room looked at each other. The mecha technicians who were almost asleep were awakened by the noise. Huo Yan, who was summarizing his speech, almost trembled when he sent the message. He turned around and saw a group of tall, short, strong and thin people standing at the door of the temporary conference room.
The captain of the Shuguang group: "?"
Alice's attention was turned back from the dazzling array of lipsticks. She suddenly remembered something and opened the dozen or so unread messages on her computer. "Oh, it seems they have escaped from prison."
The entire conference room fell silent in an instant. The leaders who were talking remotely fell silent and their eyes stopped at the medical vehicle. "What is this?"
Ji Qingfeng stopped and said, "Hi?"
Zhao Lejie took a half step back and pulled up his hat and put it on: "Where the hell is this??? Who looked at the map???"
Lin Yao: “I saw it.”
Ji Qingfeng: “?”
Lin Yao looked at the map again: "...It's east."
Hu Luobu's eyes went dark: "This is Xi."
The staff at the various mecha bases also looked over and saw the group of people retreating, but after a while, a familiar-looking man walked over from behind. You Su ignored the gazes of everyone inside and didn't even look at the others. He only noticed a pair of barefoot feet slowly shrinking into the quilt at the edge of a raised quilt on the medical vehicle.
You Su: “…”
At this time, Jiang Simiao and Brother Zhang, who were running breathlessly and sweating profusely, blocked the door and grabbed two people near the door on the left and right. Jiang Simiao held the man down with one hand and opened the light computer to send a message to Shen Xingtang: "Xingtang? Yes, I'm here."
"You're here, right? Then come over..." He looked back and found that there was no sign at the door: "Where is this?"
A staff member nearby said, "Temporary meeting room."
"Temporary meeting room." Jiang Simiao: "I just arrived and caught a few people running away. Their wages can be deducted."
