Da da.
A cluster of submachine gun bullets shot into the air, but hit something invisible. The light and shadow flickered. A gunman wearing white fish-scale armor fell to the ground. The arc from the electromagnetic pulse gun in his hand hit the LED light on the roof and exploded. There was a ball of sparks.
Around him lay four gunmen, all shot in the chest.
Li Liang put down the gun in his hand and walked down the stairs, followed closely by nine agents and Wang Shan. The agent who had just fired reloaded the magazine of his submachine gun, and the others remained silent.
They had gone down seven floors from the stairs and eliminated two teams of invisible gunmen and a team of undead puppets.
What seemed like a close encounter turned out to be a well-prepared ambush for Li Liang.
In this case, the undead puppets are easy to deal with, but the invisible gunmen are more difficult to deal with. These gunmen have rich combat experience, are alert and cautious, and it is difficult to catch them all in one go.
Fortunately, the two teams of gunmen encountered were not large in number and the detectives were elite, so they were able to pass smoothly.
The group arrived at the eighth floor. Wang Shan gently opened the stairwell door and took a look outside.
It was pitch dark outside.
"Going down from here is the floor of the Zhongjing Branch," Wang Shan lowered his voice, "We have to change the stairs."
Li Liang nodded and motioned to Wang Shan to lead the way.
It didn't take long to get rid of the gunmen and undead puppets just now, but the marginal business department must have been alerted, and they may not have the same manpower when encountering them again.
The incident happened suddenly. Most of Wang Shan's trusted agents were taken over by House and have been operating outside. There will be basically no reinforcements from our side. We can only rely on the deputy director's understanding of the building to avoid large-scale conflicts as much as possible.
After walking out of the stairwell, Li Liang closed his eyes and looked around.
There is no one within the spirit's field of vision.
At this time, the ordinary agents had not yet gone to work, and those who stayed on duty had probably been cleared out long ago.
The light of searchlights occasionally flashed through the darkness, showing that the surrounding airships were still tightly surrounding the building.
Following closely behind Wang Shan and the agents, Li Liang always observed the surroundings through Ling's vision.
A few minutes later, the group of people walked around a large office area and arrived at the door of another stairwell.
At this moment, Li Liang suddenly thought that Tu Ran said on the communicator that the group was waiting for him in the building, but did not say where exactly they would meet. Maybe the environment the group was in at that time did not allow much communication.
If he were a group, where would he choose?
It must be a place that is safe enough and familiar.
Zhongjing Branch...
Thinking of this, he walked quickly to Wang Shan's side and lowered his voice: "Which floor is the RD's office on?"
Wang Shan was stunned for a moment: "Next floor, West District."
"take me."
ten minutes later.
The group of people quietly approached the west area on the 7th floor.
As expected, a Qingshui Yamen like RD only has three offices and one archive room.
Before he got close, Li Liang had already discovered that he had guessed correctly.
There is only one beating heart in the entire West End, and it is in an office belonging to .RD.
Arriving at the door, Li Liang stood against the wall on one side of the door and shook his finger at the detective on the other side.
The detective stretched out his hand and pushed it gently. Unexpectedly, the door opened a crack.
It's not locked.
A middle-aged man's voice sounded in the darkness inside the door: "Billy."
Li Liang whispered: "Redemption." As he spoke, he pushed open the door and took a quick look inside.
A figure sits alone at a desk.
Two agents walked in with guns drawn, aiming at the figure.
Immediately after, two more detectives entered to inspect the environment, and for a moment someone said: "Safe."
Only then did Li Liang lead Wang Shan and the other agents into the office.
After closing the door, an agent turned on a flashlight.
This is a suite with a door on the right wall leading to another room.
Sitting quietly behind the desk was a middle-aged Chinese man, thin and capable. Li Liang had never seen him before, but this face gave him a very familiar feeling. He should be one of the group's personalities, the current director of .RD, Li Liang. One yuan.
"Wang Ju," the group said expressionlessly, staring at Wang Shan.
Wang Shan looked surprised and blurted out: "Li Yiyuan? Are you here..." He stopped abruptly in the middle of his words and turned to look at Li Liang.
The facts are already clear, Li Yiyuan is Li Liang's man.
The group stood up and walked to the door of the room on the right, saying calmly: "If it is convenient, I would like to talk to Li Liang alone."
"Okay." Wang Shan nodded.
Li Liang followed the group into the room. When the door was closed and the lights were turned on, he noticed three sets of fish-scale armor on the ground.
"Mr. Li Liang," Li Yiyuan leaned forward slightly. When he raised his head again, his eyes trembled and he said with a smile, "We are not surprised that you would choose to return to Zhongjing, but we are still glad."
"I'm not very noble," Li Liang said frankly. "If Xiacheng District is destroyed, I may never have the chance to figure out the secrets about me, and I can only live the rest of my life with regret and guilt."
Li Yiyuan, or rather the group, shook his head: "In our long life, we have seen too many people. No matter what era, no matter what the situation, whenever there are two roads in front of them, most people will choose that one." A path that is safer and more beneficial to oneself. The so-called caution and the so-called weighing are just excuses for egoists to comfort themselves. We never care about a person’s motivation for making a choice. What matters is whether he follows his heart. Where does the chosen path lead.”
"I just... don't want to have any regrets," Li Liang took out a gauze scarf that he had always carried with him from his pocket and handed it to the group. "Marlena said that she loves Gaetano deeply."
The group took the gauze scarf and stared at the blood stains on the gauze scarf. The shape of the gauze scarf changed very quickly into an Italian man. His face was pale, and he slowly knelt down as if he was exhausted mentally and physically. He murmured: "Marlena..."
Then, there was a silent wail.
for a long time.
The group changed back to Li Yiyuan again.
Gently wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, the group stood up and said with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Li Liang, Gaetano Aronica has been saved."
Li Liang sighed silently.
One of the group's personalities, Gaetano Aronica, died, and his soul returned to peace like his beloved Marlena.
There was silence in the room for a moment, and the group returned to normal. He said solemnly: "In the past few days, we have successfully approached Li Chengshu and found that he is not only working for the Marginal Business Department, but also accepting orders from another organization. We suspect it is the Natural Sect. "
"Natural Sect?" Li Liang frowned, "I remembered before that when you created .RD, the spiritual door had not been opened. Why did you create this department? Is it for the Natural Sect?"
"Yes, we have always suspected that the Natural Sect has some kind of supernatural power, but we have never been able to penetrate it. We were even noticed by the Natural Sect, which caused the operation to be shelved for many years."
"So the Natural Sect is also related to Zhuos's plan?"
"That's the problem," the group folded their arms and muttered. "At this stage of the plan, there are no Natural Sect members among the forces mobilized by Li Chengshu. Moreover, we have reviewed the entire incident and found no trace of the Natural Sect's involvement."
"It has nothing to do with the whole matter..." Li Liang thought to no avail, shook his head and said, "Since he is not directly involved, there is no need to consider the position of the Natural Sect, just keep an eye on Li Chengshu."
"Well," the group nodded, "so far, the Marginal Business Department has sent 37 spaceships and 1,840 gunmen to Zhongjing. The day before yesterday, I was ordered to pick up the emissaries of the goblins, the psychics and the heroes of Dros. The guards clashed twice, resulting in the loss of 437 gunners and seven spaceships."
Wuxia was shocked by the losses of both sides, and Li Liang asked: "How many messengers are there from the goblin?"
"The three women are all servants of King Kofaru."
"What strength?"
"Never took action," the group sneered. "The goblin will only make an agreement with the final winner."
"Is there one downstairs now?"
"Yes, the goblin with the spiritual core has already met with Li Chengshu at the New Order Contact Conference Building. The goblin downstairs is here to persuade the advisers to surrender. I have prepared three sets of tactical outer armor. You can put on the outer armor later and follow Behind me, straight down to the dungeon.”
"Okay," Li Liang thought for a moment, "there are two more things you need to do. One is to confirm whether the fortress under the New Order Contact Conference headquarters building is the control center of the canopy weapon, and the other is to control the secret dock. And pick up Cain who is hiding in the outer trench.”
"As for the canopy weapon, we are very sure that the control center is in the underground fortress. The second thing is no problem. I will bring Cain into Zhongjing before noon today."
"Cain is..."
"The Jonash Trench," the group smiled, "is a place where Mayfly's submarines often hide."
