Chen Yao's fingertips brushed against the ice slag condensed on the edge of the tactical tablet, and the Big Dipper map caused a fine stinging pain under her collarbone.
Mou Xuan's back, as he was leaning over to debug the space-time stabilizer, suddenly overlapped with his memory - three hours ago, when he used a dagger to pierce the cold chain drawing, three straight edges also appeared on the back of his neck.
"The interval between each trip of the quantum cold chain vehicle is a prime number." She suddenly poked her frozen finger at the holographic projection, and the ice crystals on her fingernails refracted a rainbow at a certain time stamp, "but the seventh trip record was 17 seconds shorter."
Mou Xuan paused imperceptibly while adjusting the knob.
The lines of the timepiece sliding down the cuffs of the combat uniform cast a golden shadow on the operating table. The ripples of time and space that had been solidified suddenly flowed back, smudged the ink on the cold chain vehicle drawings back into an undried state.
"In the secret message intercepted last month," the star map under Chen Yao's collarbone suddenly lit up a third star, "the fragments of bills destroyed by Tao's accounting department show..."
"They use the Fibonacci sequence to encrypt the real coordinates." Mou Xuan suddenly adjusted the frequency of the space-time stabilizer to the Hertz number, and the fallen ice crystals formed a spiral sequence in mid-air.
When the seventh ice crystal was about to fall to the ground, he kicked up a piece of antimatter battery debris with the tip of his boot and accurately shattered the ice particle corresponding to the abnormal transportation record.
Analyst Yin stared at the exploding ice mist and suddenly covered his forehead: "No wonder there is a hash value conflict in the cold chain system log!
They use time gaps to cover up..."
The alarm in the operations room suddenly spewed out a large amount of dry ice. Mou Xuan pulled over the quantum jammer as a shield and accurately grabbed Shen Yao's wrist in the thick fog.
The heat from the time power in his palm penetrated her skin through the protective suit, and the stinging pain of the seventh star in the Big Dipper suddenly turned into a warm current.
"The surveillance video from the blizzard night three years ago," Chen Yao quickly retrieved the database through the resonance of the supernatural power, "The reflection of the windshield of the cold chain truck shows the head of the Tao Group..."
"Holographic projector." Mou Xuan suddenly dragged her behind the smoking server.
The intertwined breaths of the two people condensed into ice crystals in the air at minus fifty degrees Celsius, crackling and exploding on the computer host that was activating the self-destruct program.
When the alliance members rushed in holding explosion-proof shields, what they saw was a space-time topological map made up of ice crystals all over the ground.
Mou Xuan was using the tip of a tactical dagger to pick up a piece of melted and frozen cable. A piece of bionic skin with the Dow logo was stuck to the end of the cable.
"The cold chain project five years ago was a double helix scam." He suddenly stabbed the tip of his knife into a node on the topological map. The moment the ice crystal exploded, the shadow of the Tao leader speaking simultaneously in three timelines appeared. "They laid traps in the past, created chaos now, and will steal superpower genes in the future."
The protective mask in Zou's confidant's hand fell to the ground with a bang.
He recognized the figure wiping the scalpel in the shadows - it was the Dow medical consultant who performed his appendectomy three years ago.
"That's why Consultant Xu's clone carries the space-time grafting virus!" Analyst Yin suddenly dropped the tactical tablet on the icy ground. The cracks on the screen just spelled out the code symbol of Dow Cold Chain. "They used five layers of nested time traps..."
"But the real killer move is here." Chen Yao suddenly raised the mobile hard drive that was emitting cold air.
The Big Dipper cast tiny spots of light on her neck, reflecting the light blue liquid frozen at the interface of the hard drive - that was the cerebrospinal fluid crystals extracted from Mou Xuan's body in his previous life.
The operations room suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
Lu the skeptic was the first to react. He grabbed the quantum jammer and pointed it at the hard drive. Eighteen lasers suddenly formed a DNA chain structure in the air.
When the seventh base pair lit up, everyone saw the countdown to the end of the world hidden in the genetic sequence of the Dow Group.
"The alliance meeting will be held at nine o'clock tomorrow morning." Mou Xuan wiped off the blood crystals on the dagger, and when he turned around, the hem of his combat uniform brushed across Chen Yao's frozen fingers. "It's time to let Engineer Yin demonstrate the new discovery of time topology."
Chen Yao lowered her head to hide her burning ears, but she heard the star map under her collarbone making a light sound similar to the sound of a clock being wound up.
When she looked up to alert Mou Xuan to the changes in the star map, she discovered that a wisp of ice-blue mist was seeping out of the side pocket of his tactical backpack - that was clearly the color of the nerve anesthetic exclusive to the Tao leader.
The emergency lights in the alliance corridor suddenly flashed collectively, and a miniature probe hidden in the ventilation duct turned quietly.
Far away in the Dow Base under the Antarctic ice sheet, a hand wearing a silver-gray glove was inserting a chip into a cold skull - the bullet hole at the temple of the skull was exactly the same as the fatal wound in Mou Xuan's previous life.
