Chapter 89: Doomsday Humanoid Weapon 26
On the podium, Xiao Bai continued to speak.
He tried his best to control his words and actions, but found that the drug that he had always been proud of had become the most tormenting thing for him at this moment.
What was even more terrifying was that he could clearly feel that his brain memory was constantly declining.
The knowledge that had long been deeply engraved in his mind gradually became blurred, and no matter how he recalled it, there was only chaos.
Just an hour ago, he had imagined himself standing on the podium, facing all Chinese people, and telling them everything he had done.
But he imagined himself as a winner, looking down on all living things.
It shouldn't be like this, when he was just one step away from his lifelong pursuit, he was kicked into the bottomless abyss, reduced to a prisoner, and confessed all the crimes he had committed in the past to these mediocre people he had always despised.
This strong sense of gap made Xiao Bai completely out of control.
He didn't understand. He had calculated every step and he had repeatedly considered the action plan. Why did he fail miserably?
Where did the mistake go?
If Yao Rong knew what he was thinking, he would definitely be merciful and tell Xiao Bai the answer to this question.
Xiao Bai lost because of people's hearts.
His plan was indeed perfect in theory.
But as a perfectionist, Xiao Bai's plan had a very low error tolerance rate.
He completely treated his subordinates as puppets, but he never thought that his subordinates also had their own selfish desires.
This little bit of selfishness became a flaw, and became the ant hole that caused the thousand-mile dam to collapse.
Xiao Bai also lost because of his arrogance.
Even though he knew that Lu Fei was very powerful, and even though he knew that Yao Rong had developed a game bracelet that even he had not developed, Xiao Bai did not think that Lu Fei and Yao Rong would be his opponents. He always approached Lu Fei and Yao Rong with a cat catching a mouse mentality.
He did not even take Lu Fei and Yao Rong seriously, let alone Duanmu Si, Fang Shaoyuan, and Song Xiuping.
This kind of weakness in character is often particularly fatal.
"I believe that after hearing this, everyone has already made a rough conclusion in their hearts about whether Xiao Bai is guilty or innocent." Xiao Bai was dragged aside by the guards again, and Yao Rong took the microphone again, "But in addition to the judgment of the people, he will also face the sanctions of the law."
Due to excessive blood loss and drug damage, Xiao Bai has already developed a strong sense of dizziness and may faint at any time.
But Yao Rong kept him awake.
Let him experience this special court session from beginning to end.
Witness with his own eyes that the wealth, status, and honor he had worked hard for half his life were all taken away one by one.
At the same time, outside the central base.
The area near the large drainage outlet that was originally deserted was full of military trucks.
After being reminded by Yao Rong, Duanmu Si found several reliable urban planning experts and asked them to study the underground drainage system and determine which drainage outlet the experimental subjects were most likely to sneak into the base.
After a night of intense discussion, the experts finally gave Duanmu Si two locations.
The two locations were evenly matched, and Duanmu Si immediately decided to split the troops into two groups.
Lu Fei personally led the team to one of the groups to ambush, just in time to wait for the experimental subjects who had fallen into the trap.
With him as a backup, the army successfully controlled all the experimental subjects.
"Report to Lieutenant Colonel Lu, the number has been counted, and there are a total of 320 experimental subjects."
Lu Fei stood on the top of the military truck, listening silently to the report of his subordinates.
When he heard his subordinates use the quantifier "tool" to describe the experimental subjects, his brows unconsciously frowned slightly.
But looking at those experimental subjects who looked like all kinds of things except for the complete human form, Lu Fei didn't know how to correct his subordinates' words.
"After tying them up, take them to the military card. We should go back to the base."
"Lieutenant Colonel Lu..." the subordinate advised, "If ordinary people saw their appearance, I'm afraid... I'm afraid it would cause unnecessary panic..."
"Cause panic among the people? Do they want to become like this?" Lu Fei finally couldn't help it and asked back.
The subordinates were embarrassed and dared not say a word.
Song Xiuping sent his subordinates away, calmed Lu Fei's emotions, and then advised: "According to the rules and regulations, these experimental subjects are highly dangerous and cannot enter the base casually."
Lu Fei lowered his head.
The afternoon breeze blew his hair, and the sunshine after the rain fell into his eyes, reflecting the tears that flashed in his eyes.
He didn't say anything, but Song Xiuping could feel the depression all over his body.
After a long while, Lu Fei restrained himself and said, "It's okay, I was too excited just now."
Song Xiuping was still racking his brains to think of words of comfort, and Lu Fei asked him in return: "If you don't take them back to the base, I want to stay here to watch over them, is that okay?"
Song Xiuping nodded, tolerating his willfulness: "Okay. I'll lead the team back."
Lu Fei pursed his lips, but said, "Forget it. I am the person in charge of this operation. Since I have been ordered to come here, I should go back and report in person."
Seeing him like this, Song Xiuping felt even more complicated.
Sighing secretly, Song Xiuping said: "I will arrange the personnel and select a team to go back to the base with you. I will stay here with the rest of the people to guard."
After leaving this sentence, Song Xiuping turned and left.
"If--"
Lu Fei's voice came from behind.
"I mean if, I was not rescued by Dr. Yao, now I am also one of them."
Song Xiuping was silent.
He knew better than anyone what the outcome would be if Lu Fei was not rescued.
"But everything has changed, you were rescued." Song Xiuping turned around and forced a smile.
"Brother Song, do you think they look like monsters?"
Song Xiuping said: "They are victims."
"Yes, they are victims, but you see--"
Lu Fei pointed at the psychics who were carrying the experimental subjects.
Every psychic here is a leader in the army.
Logically, they are all used to big scenes.
But even for them, when they see these experimental subjects, they will unconsciously reveal some disgust and fear on their faces.
This may be human nature...
"But this human nature is really sad to see."
***
On the way back, Lu Fei was very silent. It was not
until he entered the city and heard Yao Rong's voice on the radio and heard the law's judgment on Xiao Bai that Lu Fei slowly recovered his spirit.
He listened all the way, and when he arrived at the auditorium and saw Yao Rong, no matter what he thought in his heart, the expression on his face was exactly the same as usual.
Yao Rong was chatting with Deputy Base Commander Duanmu.
The trial of Xiao Bai has come to an end for the time being, but the trial of Xiao Bai is only the first step, and there is still a lot to do.
Yao Rong glimpsed Lu Fei standing behind a pillar and looking at her. She raised the corner of her lips slightly, said hello to Deputy Base Commander Duanmu, and walked towards Lu Fei.
"Are you done with everything?"
Lu Fei shook his head: "Not yet, I'm back to report."
Although Lu Fei didn't act unusual, Yao Rong was still quick to notice something was wrong: "What's wrong, you don't seem very happy?"
Lu Fei said stubbornly: "Not bad."
Yao Rong asked in a different way: "Then do you want to talk to me about something?"
Lu Fei raised his head suddenly, staring at Yao Rong with bright eyes, expecting but also mixed with a little bit of uneasiness: "I want to ask you, how does the Central Base plan to place these experimental subjects."
Yao Rong said truthfully: "There are too many things to deal with, and it's too late to discuss this matter now."
Too many people were involved in this operation.
The base chiefs of the Northwest, Hope, Southeast, and Flame bases, as well as the people who came with them, were temporarily detained.
Some senior executives of the Central Base were also involved.
In comparison, the issue of the experimental subjects is not the most urgent.
Lu Fei pursed his lips: "How long do we have to wait before we can discuss it?"
"We have to wait a few more days."
Yao Rong knew what he was thinking and what was bothering him, but if it was just this level of awareness, it would be far from enough.
"Let me assign you a task. Haven't you been keeping an eye on the laboratory these days? Now take some subordinates and take all the experimental subjects there away."
Lu Fei wanted to talk to Yao Rong about his confusion, but after Yao Rong assigned him the task, he turned around and left in a hurry, obviously he had other things to do.
Lu Fei took a breath, temporarily put aside his distracting thoughts, and hurried to the laboratory with his subordinates.
The laboratory had been controlled long ago.
When Lu Fei arrived, the entrance of the alley was full of people watching the excitement.
He squeezed into the crowd and entered the laboratory, and soon saw ten experimental subjects soaked in nutrient solution.
Lu Fei bent down and picked up the thinnest little boy from the nutrient chamber.
The little boy's mouth had mutated into a flat and long bird's beak, and a lot of fluff had grown on his side face. It was unknown how long he had been locked up, and his skin was abnormally pale, and he even showed extremely strong aggressiveness towards Lu Fei.
Lu Fei was well prepared and injected the little boy with a sedative.
The effect of the drug gradually took effect, and the little boy fell drowsy in his arms.
He carried the little boy out of the laboratory.
The other subordinates followed him, carrying the experimental subjects on their backs.
"Did you listen to the radio?"
"Of course I did. The big speaker at the entrance of the alley has been playing it all the time. Anyone who is deaf can hear it."
"Is this cold storage really a laboratory? It's so scary. I've actually lived nearby all my life."
"Do you remember that crazy woman named Wang? Wasn't her child lost a few years ago? She lived in the alley next door. Do you think her child could be..."
"Oh, what a sin."
"By the way, what does the experimental subject look like?" "
What else could it look like? It must look like a human--"
someone answered casually, but as soon as the words fell, screams suddenly rang out from the crowd, occasionally mixed with a series of "monsters".
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and was shocked: "Oh my god, what kind of monster is this!"
"This... is this the experiment subject?"
"Although the experience of the experiment subject is worthy of sympathy, it looks too scary..."
"It can't be considered a human at all..."
Lu Fei, who had just walked out of the laboratory door, paused, then quickened his pace, took the little boy to the military truck, and closed the heavy door.
But this action can block the inquiring eyes, but it can't block the discussions.
