The atmosphere was very heavy.
There is an alien that can evolve infinitely lurking inside the scientific research ship, and the capture team sent by the company may arrive at any time.
"Don't worry, it won't be that bad."
To be honest, Lu Li was not worried about the gray-white alien. He comforted everyone, "I will go to the back cabin later and get rid of it as soon as possible. This way, I can concentrate on dealing with threats from the outside world."
"Shall I accompany you? You shouldn't need too much security here." Roger didn't want Lu Li to face danger alone.
"No need."
Lu Li shook his head, "It can reach anywhere it wants to go through the ventilation system, but the remaining crew members can no longer withstand any level of torture. You should stay and protect them."
"Also, the ventilation ducts are not that spacious."
The last sentence completely gave up Roger's thoughts.
"Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Lu." Captain Lin Xiuyi forced a smile on his face.
In fact, he has never been so powerless. At the same time, he has become more and more determined to retire after surviving this crisis.
Of course Lu Li didn't know this. Out of caution, he added: "Before that, I have to confirm one thing with you. Is this ship really under our control? Will Luo's Biotech keep any What tricks are you using?"
"It's possible."
The driver David slid on the 3D holographic projection operating interface with one hand and pointed at the center console with one hand. "Although the intelligent system has been killed, it is only a spy on the surface. It is a heavy-duty scientific expedition that performs special tasks like the Fire." Ship, the company will definitely leave behind."
Lin Xiu nodded, looked around, and said solemnly: "This is why I asked everyone to stay, to speculate on possible loopholes together."
"..." Lu Li was speechless for a while.
How could he guess such a thing? He was not an omniscient and omnipotent god. Moreover, this was his first time boarding a spaceship, and it involved high-tech fields, so he really couldn't be of much help.
"Spy? Maybe you can check whether each crew member carries communication equipment." Dr. Amy was more positive. She suggested:
"If the technicians are capable, they can check which users have used the interstellar communication antenna on the top of the spacecraft."
Subconsciously, everyone turned their attention to Lu Li.
He is currently the only person known to have carried personal communication equipment on board the ship.
As for public communication equipment, it had long been destroyed by [Tinder].
Frankly speaking, Lu Li had not thought of asking for official help, but unfortunately, the interstellar rescue department did not accept private signals.
In addition, Miss Kamio was of no use in his communication list because she was within the sphere of influence of Luo's creatures, and Lu Li did not want to drag her into trouble.
As for Professor Taylor, who represents the alliance, it would be better not to contact him unless absolutely necessary——
Luo's biology can't stand up to the investigation, and he himself isn't much better.
"You can indeed check it out."
On the side, after hearing Dr. Amy's suggestion, Roger nodded and agreed: "Whether it is a private device or a public device, as long as you want to get in touch with the outside world, you must use the interstellar communication antenna."
"But... there are no technical personnel on the ship anymore."
Miss Colleen raised her hand timidly. She seemed a little uncomfortable with such a solemn atmosphere, and said in a low tone: "If I remember correctly, they were all killed in the incident just now."
"well."
With a sigh, the meeting reached a deadlock again.
For Lu Li, the only problem he could easily solve was the escaped alien.
Of course, once he is in a desperate situation, he does not have any trump cards. At worst, he will contact Professor Taylor. There is no doubt that such a top biologist will definitely be interested in aliens.
By then, there will be only one fate for Roche Biotech: the alliance will launch the most severe investigation against it.
As a whistleblower, my situation may be slightly better. I must be extra cautious in my words and deeds to avoid the secret being exposed——
He really can't go into the lab.
Compared to aliens, invisible werewolves have more research value.
What a sin.
However, Lu Li sighed in his heart and decided to tell him how he could contact Professor Taylor.
A mournful army will be defeated.
Among everyone present, no one understood this better than Lu Li. He knew that if the entire ship was enveloped in a pessimistic mood, when danger came, it would collapse in an instant.
"Great, can you contact the professor now?"
Hope arose in Mr. Lin Xiuyi's eyes, and he was even happier than when he learned that Lu Li could kill the last alien alone.
The more you understand Luo's creature, the more you understand how dangerous your current situation is.
On the side, Miss Colleen seemed to be shocked by the sudden good news. She waited for a long time before smiling belatedly.
"Of course, but I need some time to collect evidence." Lu Li, who was conflicted, decided to delay, "When it comes to this kind of matter, the professor will definitely not favor one side."
"What do you mean?" the captain asked.
"I plan to give the professor a live broadcast. Only by seeing it with his own eyes will he know how serious the matter is and how valuable the alien creature is for research."
Lu Li's words were reasonable and well-founded, and they were like a shot of cardiotonic injected into everyone's body. Even Dr. Amy, who was about to run away, temporarily gave up her idea. She said quickly:
"When I was doing remote experiments with alien larvae, I backed up a lot of videos, which can be used as evidence."
"The logbook on the cockpit side contains monitoring information, which is also convincing."
After saying this, the driver David's face showed joy.
Andy, who was not far away, opened a can of beer, raised it high, and said, "Here's a toast to the stranger Professor Taylor."
While everyone was looking forward to it, only two people smiled reluctantly.
About five minutes later, the hatch opened, and Roger took the elevator with two security guards to the top of the spacecraft, responsible for protecting the communication antenna.
It is a life-saving straw for everyone and there is no room for error.
Tens of billions of miles away.
"This is what you call foolproof. Three space battleships have already left port, but this situation occurs!"
A slightly angry voice sounded.
In the huge circular conference room of the Roche Biological Headquarters Building, an old man looked gloomy.
Since learning about the aliens, none of the participating directors have left, firstly to keep it secret, and secondly because they want to see the company's rise with their own eyes and be successfully pocketed.
Unfortunately, not only did my wish to witness history with my own eyes come to nothing, but I also received a recording that completely shattered my dream.
Immediately afterwards, a lady dressed as a secretary ran in and handed a printed document to the person in charge.
[Chris Taylor, title: first-level professor, works at the Nemesis Alliance Life and Gene Research Institute. A few months ago, he led a team to Nemesis 200 to 250 to preside over the genetic enhancement of all humans]
The above is all the information collected by the company using all its efforts.
A few lines give off a disturbing flavor.
Luo Yue thought of an ancient word that she had seen in family history books: imperial minister.
If Professor Taylor had not been here, the information on the paper would have been reduced by more than half again.
"No, that Mr. Lu will not do such stupid things easily. He also has secrets that he doesn't want others to know." Luo Yue quickly calmed down.
Compared to that mysterious professor who was as mysterious as the Imperial Envoy, he understood Lu Li better——
An extremely regrettable genius who was almost taken away to a greater planet.
A young man who was full of yearning for the starry sky left school early and boarded the Spark to explore the wild star.
A hunter who behaves extremely calmly when facing dangerous creatures.
The character is too contradictory.
Instantly, the experienced Luo Yue noticed something was wrong. He felt that Lu Li was either suffering from schizophrenia or was deliberately hiding something.
Combined with Lu Li's sudden action in the medical cabin when he shot and shattered the surveillance camera, this idea seemed to be confirmed.
What secret does this child have?
If time were not pressed, Luo Yue would even think of going to Flowing Light City to investigate his past in depth.
"I need to talk to him." The person in charge looked at the secretary standing next to him, "Didn't Huozhong add the company's secret account to his contact list before he was damaged?"
"Hurry up and let the technical department make arrangements!"
"I'm going to have a conversation with him in a minute."
In this way, the conference room fell into unprecedented hustle and bustle, and the situation became unintentionally turbulent.
the other side.
Lu Li lay on the bed and fell into deep thought. He was thinking about how he should deal with Professor Taylor and make himself less conspicuous in the alien incident.
But, can this really be the case?
The battle that took place in the medical bay was extremely brief. Roger was the only witness, and the traces had been completely erased.
However, when the drones ravaged the quarantine area, there were a large number of witnesses.
At this time, a prompt message popped up.
[Ms. Kamio: Are you done? I just woke up and was waiting to hear the story of the great adventurer who saved mankind. 】
Immediately afterwards, a selfie appeared on the virtual light screen. Miss Kamio, wearing a nightgown, was sitting on the tatami, staring ahead with her head propped up, as if expecting something.
It is indeed a blessing to see and talk to familiar people when you are in a difficult situation.
At least the loneliness in Lu Li's heart was relieved a lot. He tapped his fingers on the light screen:
Sorry, it hasn't been processed yet. Recently...
Halfway through the typing, he deleted the entire paragraph and wrote instead: "Some mysterious visitors appeared on the spaceship. They were not very friendly. I have expelled them all."
After a few seconds of delay, a message came back.
[Ms. Kamio: Sit down, waiting to hear]
Although the communicators of this era did not have emoticons, they could send real-time photos.
In the picture, Miss Kamio was sitting upright, with a smile on her lips, as if she was expecting what kind of story Lu Li would make up to deceive her.
For a moment, Lu Li thought of eating and drinking at the Atom Club.
There was hot food in front of him, there was a retro performance not far away, and sitting next to him was a girl who was so beautiful that she made other guests jealous. She listened to him with a smile as he told the love story between Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and Yang Taizhen.
However, just as he was about to make up a white lie to make the girl happy, the light screen shook, indicating that a contact had sent a message.
And he's still a dead person.
【Tinder】
After Professor Suzuki died, it deliberately hacked into the system in order to easily contact him, becoming the third contact person after Professor Taylor and Miss Kamio.
However, hasn't it been destroyed by Mr. Captain?
Could it be Roche Biologics?
An idea came to mind, and Lu Li quickly left a message to Miss Kamio: The captain held a meeting and we will talk later.
Without waiting for a reply, he quickly cut out the dialog box.
[Is it convenient for video calls, classmate Lu Li?]
The person sent the message using a Tinder account, but his tone was extremely unfamiliar.
classmate?
Damn capitalist, you deserve it too.
Lu Li cursed in his mind, but his hand movements were not slow and he immediately agreed to the request.
After all, now was not the time to lose his temper. He felt that it was necessary to talk to Luo Che Biology to see what tricks the other party wanted to play.
After a while, the image of a middle-aged man gradually stabilized on the simulated light screen.
At the other end of the screen, the young man half lying on the bed became increasingly clear.
In the audience, dozens of capitalists of varying sizes looked up at the same time, staring at him.
"Hello, classmate Lu Li."
Since the Fire was moving at full speed, this ultra-long-distance communication was restricted to a certain extent, and the image of Lu Li's face was not particularly clear.
But everyone present was certain that he was the humanoid creature that easily killed aliens.
Humanoid, this was the nickname given to Lu Li within the company after watching his battle scenes, to distinguish him from normal humans.
Almost at the same time, Lu Li also confirmed the identity of the caller:
Luo Yue, CEO of Roche Biologics.
As a laborer, it was impossible for him to know nothing about his employer. He had read some public information before signing the labor contract.
I really didn't expect to meet the big boss in this manner.
"Hello, Mr. Luo."
After Lu Li said something polite, he got straight to the point and said, "Are you here to persuade us to surrender without mercy?"
"No, this is just a misunderstanding."
Mr. Luo, who was well prepared, didn't feel embarrassed at all and said with a smile: "I can explain."
"At this point, do you think it is still necessary? So many people died on the ship."
After meeting the black-hearted capitalist whom he had longed for, Lu Li calmed down, his face expressionless, making it difficult to tell whether he was happy or angry.
"Sorry, I'm very sorry." Mr. Luo bowed slightly and said regretfully: "If I could have known about this matter earlier and dealt with it in time, the tragedy would not have happened."
"I have dealt with those who made private claims. Of course, these are not reasons to avoid responsibility. The company is willing to accept official investigation, give justice to the deceased, and provide high compensation to the survivors and family members of the deceased."
"in addition……"
Before the guy finished speaking, Lu Li felt impatient. In just a few words, he had already figured out that the person standing in front of him was a capitalist even more shameless than Palmer, the chairman of Shixin Group. .
"No need to talk nonsense. You and I both know what is going on. Now... let's talk about the conditions."
Lu Li had experience in dealing with such people.
