Chapter 552: The Mist. The Suitcase Project
Captain Li also thought of something and waved his hands hastily, "I'm not interested in the briefcase. I'm not trying to control the base. Don't think that way."
No one said anything, and no one could say anything. Only they knew what they were thinking. There were so many people here, and if there was a chance to control the base, I'm afraid 99% of them would want to take the briefcase for themselves.
Chu An looked at his chest. He still had a conscience, but no one knew what he would become in the end under the drive of such tempting interests.
It was Song Yunfei who spoke up to smooth things over. "I agree to go down and take a look. No matter who has any conspiracy, it's nothing more than getting the briefcase and controlling the nuclear bomb. As long as we go down, there is a high probability that we will run into that person. Why keep guessing here?"
His words were actually similar to Captain Li's meaning, but they were very pleasant to hear, and everyone's expressions finally eased a little.
"Yes, we should go down and take a look." Captain Li hurriedly chimed in.
"You can go down, but he can't." Cui Yingjie pointed at Zhe Xiguang.
Zhe Xiguang was speechless, but he didn't want to argue with them anymore. "There are a lot of electronic doors down there, and they need my fingerprints and irises. Can you guys go down without me?"
Song Yunfei has already taken these things into consideration, but if he wants to bring Zha Xiguang along, Cui Yingjie will definitely follow. Judging from the current strength of both sides, they are weaker than Cui Yingjie, and if there is any conflict, it will be difficult to resolve.
He looked at Mou Ci and Chu An. They were forces outside the base and might be able to borrow some strength. "What do you think, Captain Mou?"
Mou Ci didn't want to speak. He brought Shen Dawei here to be his spokesperson, but unfortunately he was named.
"Going down is undoubtedly the fastest way to find the traitor, but what after you find the traitor? Do you have a way to control them?" Mou Ci asked.
Knowing the outcome but being unable to do anything about it, they will only continue to be exploited or killed.
Song Yunfei's heart sank. With their abilities, it was difficult to deal with Cui Yingjie, let alone the uncertain big boss. He looked at Captain Li, "Captain Li, how many of the troops above are your trusted ones?"
There are at least 200 subordinates under Captain Li, but not all of them were brought by him, and their quality varies.
"It's hard to say. I only brought a reinforced company with me. More than 20 people were killed or injured in the fog before, but I brought almost all of them down this time."
Cheng Hao was surprised. He had always thought that the base's armed forces were under the control of Captain Li. "Is there no one above you that you can trust?"
Captain Li glanced at him with resentment, "I didn't bring Shao Zong with me, and he has more than 20 men under his command. But the director can dispatch at least 500 men. If he is really a traitor, our chances of winning are slim."
"So many? Why didn't I notice it before?" Cheng Hao was surprised.
Zhe Xiguang explained, "The nuclear base is different from other organizations. Most of the staff have dual identities and can be transformed into armed forces when necessary. There are also many people hiding in the dark. It's normal that you don't know."
"What should we do?" Cheng Hao was a little discouraged. "I'm afraid I'll die if I go down. If I don't go down, I'll probably die too."
"Then let's go down and take a look." Chu An suddenly said.
She put the baseball bat on the table, and everyone was stunned, wondering how could she have forgotten that there were two more terrifying outputs.
Mou Ci looked at the baseball bat that was almost reaching her chest and felt a little distressed, but they were in a whirlpool and would drown if they couldn't escape.
"I agree to go ahead." Zhe Xiguang said, "The minority shall obey the majority."
Cui Yingjie saw that everyone else wanted to go down and take a look, and he also thought about his own little tricks, and finally agreed reluctantly. However, they still had to discuss how many people to go down. If there were too few people, they would be easily caught, and if there were too many people, conflicts would easily arise and affect their performance.
Chu An assumed that there were four forces here, Captain Li, Cui Yingjie, Zhe Xiguang and themselves, and proposed that each family send 2-3 people down. No one objected, and everyone dispersed and began to discuss with their own people who to send. In fact, there was not much distance between each group, and they could probably hear what they said.
Chu An didn't plan to bring anyone with him this time, including Gu Ye. First, he didn't know what was going on down there. If there were tunnels or traps, it would be even more dangerous if they scattered everyone. Second, there were too many people who needed to be protected here, and it was definitely not enough to rely on Shen Dawei and Guozi alone. In the end, they decided to only let Chu An and Mou Ci follow them.
After the personnel were decided, Mou Ci suddenly thought of something and hurried to find Song Yunfei, and Chu An followed him.
The people here haven't made up their minds yet. Captain Li was seriously injured and was not suitable to go down, but he insisted, so the stalemate has been going on.
Mou Ci called Song Yunfei aside and asked, "Where is Dr. Zhao? Have you seen him?"
Song Yunfei's eyes flashed, and he obviously thought of the same thing, but he still asked calmly, "What do you want to do with him?"
Mou Ci, "The news I gave you is what he told me, but I found that what he said is different from the actual situation. I want to ask what is going on."
Song Yunfei sighed, "Hey, I wanted to ask too, but we got separated. Right where you were looking for us, Xiaoguang and Awei died to protect us."
Song Yunfei paused, a trace of guilt gradually rising in his eyes, "It's a pity that we didn't run away. If we hadn't met you, we might have died."
"My condolences." Mou Ci felt more and more strange. So many people like him couldn't escape, but he, an unarmed researcher, was able to escape.
"Who is Dr. Zhao?" Chu An was a little curious about this person and interrupted them.
"He is a medical researcher and has a high reputation in the base." Mou Ci explained, "He was also the first one to tell me that these patients were controlled by spider eggs and would go crazy and attack the base. They are also highly contagious. I passed this information on, and then Captain Li came to support me."
Mou Ci did not lower his voice on purpose. Several soldiers who were bandaging each other's wounds heard it and their faces darkened. One of them stood up and glared at Mou Ci, "Are you saying that you misled us?"
Mou Ci did not defend himself. He did not think that what he did at that time was wrong. When encountering danger that he could not solve, he must report it in time, seek help from the organization, and let capable people solve it. But it was indeed careless to easily trust someone who had only known him for a few days. Even if he was knowledgeable and had status, he might not have morals. So he accepted all the accusations and would not defend himself.
"Do you know how many people you have killed?" Wu Di became a little angry when he saw that he didn't say anything.
Gao Yuan was closer to them and heard it too. He stood up with a gloomy face. His wife was already nine months pregnant and was about to give birth. But he was separated to the negative 12th floor, and it was very likely that the child would be born without a father.
"Mou Ci, I know you." His voice was full of sarcasm. "In Country M, you killed all your teammates because of a misjudgment. Do you want to kill the entire base this time?"
