Chapter 499: Meeting on a Narrow Road
"Wait." Ye Li looked up and saw that there were surveillance cameras installed in many places on the spacecraft. She looked surprised and asked, "Why are there so many surveillance cameras here?"
"Nonsense, how could there be no surveillance?" Lin Jia quickened his pace and said, "We can't hide from these surveillance cameras anyway. The only thing we can do is to go to the lab, find a computer connected to the internet, and hack the surveillance cameras here before we are discovered!"
"Then hurry up!" Ye Li followed closely behind Lin Jia.
"This way." Lin Jia was very familiar with the route. He had worked in the laboratory here before, so he naturally knew the route. Lin Jia pressed the button to open an elevator. After the three of them got in, Lin Jia entered a long string of numbers on the elevator's digital buttons.
Ye Li raised his eyebrows: "Did you just enter the password?"
"Yeah." The elevator door closed, and Lin Jia breathed a sigh of relief. He said, "The laboratory here is where I used to work. I didn't expect they hadn't deleted my account yet. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to enter the laboratory. The only way to get in is by elevator, but if you want to get out, there's an extra escape hatch."
Lin Jia continued, "It's still early. People in the lab usually come to work after lunch. We arrived at the perfect time."
Ye Li asked doubtfully, "After you find the materials to make the gravitational wave test device, do you need to make it in the lab? Or can you make it after you tell others about it?"
"I used to tinker with a semi-finished product in the laboratory. Give me half an hour and I can complete the subsequent project," said Lin Jia.
"No problem, as long as it can be done." Xiao Xun nodded.
The elevator suddenly stopped and the number on the screen showed -2.
"It's over!" Lin Jia stared at the numbers on the screen with his mouth wide open. Then he said in a panic, "The laboratory is on the underground first floor. The elevator stopped on the underground second floor. Someone pressed the elevator button."
"What?" Xiao Xun and Ye Li subconsciously pressed themselves against the elevator wall, tightly gripping their guns. For ease of movement, Ye Li and the others only carried pistols with them.
The elevator door slowly opened, and a pair of patrolmen stood outside, each holding a rifle.
Xiao Xun and Ye Li silently hid the guns in their pockets.
Are you kidding me? Fighting a patrol team with real guns using two pistols, isn't that courting death?
"Go up? Or go down?" Lin Jia squeezed in the corner of the elevator, his shoulders hunched, his head lowered, his face facing the direction they couldn't see. His legs kept shaking uncontrollably, but he couldn't let the patrol notice anything, so he had to control himself.
"Let's go up," one of the patrolmen replied, "button for the fourth floor."
"Haha... OK." Lin Jia smiled and pressed the button for the fourth floor. The elevator door closed and moved down.
"Huh?" The patrolman looked puzzled. "Why is the elevator going down? Are you going to the lab? I don't remember you being from the lab, right?"
"Oh, I accidentally pressed the wrong button." Lin Jia immediately pressed a floor without raising his head. He just prayed in his heart, "Don't see me! Don't see me!"
The elevator reached the basement floor. Lin Jia quickly pressed the door-closing button, the elevator door closed, and the elevator moved upwards.
Ye Li clung to the elevator wall, not daring to breathe. Lin Jia used to be from the laboratory, and these patrols must recognize him. But they must not recognize Lin Jia, otherwise it would be the end!
