Wen Ling's words made sense, but Lei Min still felt that something was wrong. When she saw Lin Qingqing again this time, she always had a bad feeling.
Of all the people, she was the only one who had the deepest impression of the bewitching voice Lin Qingqing said before.
"Now it seems that the negative emotions in the captain's heart are more serious than imagined!"
Lei Min frowned. Ever since Lin Qingqing mentioned the existence of that voice last time, she knew that the negative emotions in everyone's heart were different, and Lin Qingqing's seemed to be particularly unusual.
"Looks like I have to find a chance to have a good talk with the captain!" she thought to herself.
After dealing with Duan Xuhong's matter, the two cars turned around and drove back along the route they came from.
Everyone was speechless, but Lin Qingqing was sitting in the passenger seat, eyes half-closed, wondering what she was thinking.
Lei Min was thinking about how to talk to Lin Qingqing about this matter, when a long-lost "didi" sound suddenly came from Lin Qingqing's arms.
After a pause, she reached out and took out the communicator, pressed the receive button, and a voice message immediately came from the communicator.
"YR-109, please pay attention. Since it has been detected that your current location is closest to the rescue target, please go to Lanshui City immediately to assist the troops in rescuing the trapped people. YR-109, please reply after receiving it!"
YR-109 is the official number of Qingmang Team. When this name is called, it means that the assigned mission cannot be refused.
"YR-109 accepts the mission!"
Lin Qingqing replied to the communicator, and a moment later, the mission details and coordinates were sent to the communicator in the form of text messages.
"Let's go back to Lanshui City." After reporting the mission coordinates, Lin Qingqing leaned back on the chair and closed her eyes again.
"Oh, it seems that we are destined to go to Lanshui City today. I didn't expect that there are still people alive in Lanshui City after the end of the world for so long."
Qu Xingchi explained the situation to Yin Yaxiu through the intercom, and the two cars turned around again and continued driving towards Lanshui City.
No one spoke along the way. Lin Qingqing's mood seemed to affect everyone unintentionally. No one knew what happened to her. Could it be that something unexpected happened when she was promoted to the fourth level?
In fact, Lin Qingqing herself didn't understand what was going on. Just now she felt that Duan Xuhong should be killed, but why did she feel guilty after killing her?
Also, she clearly didn't want to go on a rescue mission, but why did she say "YR-109 accepts the mission"?
I feel like this is not me!
[Because you are not me]!
Almost at the same time, a voice in her heart said softly.
————
Although the area of Lanshui City is not large, the scenery is very beautiful. There is no hustle and bustle of high-rise buildings in the city, but only large green plants and various antique folk buildings.
In addition, there is also the largest botanical garden in southern China. There is a famous animal and plant research institute in the courtyard. The survivors they want to rescue this time are gathered there.
Fortunately, the botanical garden was not in the city center. Qu Xingchi and Yin Yaxiu drove carefully around the blocks, and finally arrived near the botanical garden.
"Oh my God! It's so beautiful here!" Lei Min couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the huge flower tree in front of him.
"Where there are many plants, there are many animals. You have forgotten the wetland park where your cousin is." Lin Qingqing glanced at her and said coldly.
Lei Min certainly didn't forget it. Seeing everyone's puzzled looks, she told them about their first encounter with a mutant cat.
"Yeah! That's really dangerous." Yin Yaxiu rolled up her sleeves and said.
"Sister Yaxiu, danger means danger. What are you doing rolling up your sleeves?" Qu Xingchi looked at Yin Yaxiu in the rearview mirror and felt that there was a hint of eagerness in her tone.
Several people were chatting and laughing, but Lin Qingqing was the only one who kept staring at the communicator.
"The troops are coming soon!"
Lin Qingqing looked at Tong
According to the information on the transmitter, the Qingmang team is only assisting in the rescue in this mission. The specific action depends on the army.
The rescue team came very quickly. Eleven military vehicles came in a mighty manner through the smoke. A moment later, they stopped in a neat row at the entrance of the botanical garden.
The leading officer was a soldier about forty years old, wearing a camouflage combat uniform, with a dark face and sharp eyes.
"Is this Captain Lin? I'm Yu Guocheng from the Xiangcheng Base. Thank you very much for coming to help." Yu Guocheng got out of the car and saluted them with a standard military salute.
"Hello, Captain Yu, I am Lin Qingqing, the captain of the YR-109 team."
"Is there just... one person in your team?"
Yu Guocheng couldn't help but frowned after scanning around. The number of members in this team is also too small, and they are all too young, and two even look underage.
"Although there are not many members in our team, everyone is very capable." Lin Qingqing was a little unhappy when she heard this.
"Okay...Captain Lin, I hope that both of us can cooperate fully to rescue the trapped people as soon as possible!"
Yu Guocheng nodded. Although there were fewer people, it was still a third-level two-star team. The two third-level superpowers also had very good combat power.
After a brief exchange between the two sides, Captain Yu began to assign tasks.
"Information received states that there are more than 600 trapped people in this botanical garden, all of whom are citizens of Lanshui City who have fled here after the apocalypse."
"And there is a very important biologist here. We must first ensure the personal safety of this biologist!" Yu Guocheng said as he took out a photo from his pocket.
Lin Qingqing took the photo and showed it to the team members. It read: Wang Qiming, 32 years old, 1.7cm tall, professor of biology.
biologist? I wrote it at the age of 32, so young!
The photo showed a fair-looking, gentle man wearing glasses and a suit. He looked like an elite person with a serious look on his face.
"The base attaches great importance to this biologist. At this time, every scientific researcher is a valuable asset of the country. We must protect them!" Yu Guocheng's expression was serious.
Lin Qingqing looked behind him. Forty soldiers stood neatly, each of them very young. It was unknown how many superpowers and how many ordinary people there were among them.
This task does not sound difficult. What has been determined is that all of the survivors, including the biologist, are in the biological laboratory in the botanical garden. They only need to pick the people out.
And these more than 600 survivors can survive to this day, and they must have been protected by the laboratory and the botanical garden. Since they have been able to survive for so long, they must have had a lot of experience in surviving the apocalypse.
"There shouldn't be too many zombies in the botanical garden, but we have to be careful about the mutant beasts that may exist inside!" Yu Guocheng finally reminded Lin Qingqing.
It seems that these soldiers also know the habits of mutant beasts and should have been fully prepared before. Lin Qingqing nodded in agreement.
Without further ado, everyone decided to set off immediately.
Yu Guocheng divided the team into three groups, one on the left and one on the right to clean up zombies and mutant beasts that may appear near the research institute.
The remaining group joined the Qingmang team just in time. They entered the laboratory from the safe passage and brought out the survivors inside.
There was no problem with the task assignment. Lin Qingqing led the team members and followed the third team to the entrance of the biological experimental base.
This experimental base is composed of multiple independent buildings, each with different functions. The tallest main building has ten floors, which is their primary goal.
"Little Bell, what's going on inside now?" Lin Qingqing looked at Wen Ling.
"Captain, there are only zombies in these buildings, no living people!" Wen Ling immediately gave the answer as soon as she finished speaking.
"Report to the captain, there is no one inside!"
Almost at the same time, the scout of the third team also gave information about the building. It was obvious that he was a person with supernatural powers.
How is this going? Lin Qingqing looked at the captain.
The captain of the third team, whose surname is Li, is Li Xu. He is a very experienced special forces soldier. Most of the entire third team he leads are also from the special forces.
After hearing this, Li Xu asked the other team members to stand by and personally took the scout to investigate the situation near other buildings.
Seeing this, Lin Qingqing also asked Lei Min to take Wen Ling with him.
The four returned soon, and it was clear that they found nothing.
"Captain Li, are you sure the news is OK?" Lin Qingqing asked Li Xu.
"We can confirm that the signal is indeed sent from here!" Li Xu said.
"If they can take the initiative to send a signal, why did they wait until now!" Lin Qingqing was very surprised. It was more than half a year after the end of the world. Why did these people think of sending a distress signal?
"We don't know the specific situation."
Li Xu communicated with Yu Guocheng outside through unlimited power about the situation inside, and the reply he received was to continue searching.
"Maybe they are hiding, little bell, use your powers to explore the underground!" Lin Qingqing suddenly said to Wen Ling.
The two superpowers used their special powers to explore underneath, and soon they found something unusual.
"Captain, there is indeed a mysterious space underground in the building next to it, but I can't detect it with my powers." Wen Ling was the first to notice something was wrong.
"Report to the captain, this little girl is right. There is indeed the sound of water flow and motor running there. There is probably someone inside."
"It seems that there is a special laboratory underground. Generally, such laboratories have the function of shielding instruments from detection," Yin Yaxiu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly interrupted.
"Our professor once had a similar private laboratory, which was also built underground. He usually did some special experiments in it."
"It seems that these survivors should be there. Xiao Lingdang, can you estimate the approximate area of the laboratory?" Lin Qingqing asked Wen Ling.
"Let me try."
