Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty-One Tiaohu Lishan
Assistant Wu was thinking about Pei Jiu's position all the way to the designated location after receiving the news.
This text message, which came at an untimely time, can be said to have disrupted a series of her future arrangements and directly put the eldest lady in danger.
It's not a good thing either for the overall situation or for her.
Assistant Wu could not excuse Pei Jiu.
She has known Pei Jiu for many years, and she can be said to know him well. She can tell that the message was indeed his tone.
And she also believed that with Pei Jiu's mind, it was impossible not to see the deep meaning behind this piece of information.
However, he still sent this message, and Assistant Wu repeatedly confirmed it, but no trace of coercion was found.
So... is this Pei Jiu's own personal behavior, or... is it an order from his superiors?
Assistant Wu didn't dare to make a conclusion.
She drove all the way, driving wildly, and even speeding on unpaved roads. The car was almost scrapped, and finally reached the other end of the island in the shortest time.
The location Pei Jiu sent her was the Luo family's secret base on another part of the island. The terrain here is complex, and there are no scenery or strange species. The ornamental value is extremely low. Because it has no development value, it was planned on the resort island.
It was then drawn out of the planning scope.
Also because this place is highly concealed, no islanders would wander around here without thinking on ordinary days, so it is suitable for doing some relatively confidential things.
Naturally, what is being done specifically is a level of confidentiality that is beyond the scope of a small life assistant.
But Assistant Wu knew.
This base was the place where Experimental Subject Zero, the "sea monster", was once imprisoned.
Leaving the half-used car behind, Assistant Wu quickly walked to the entrance and found Pei Jiu waiting there.
"you……"
Before she could ask her question, Pei Jiu told him everything he knew.
"This morning, not long after you left, the group of people in the laboratory made a move. I found an excuse to follow them, and after observing for a long time, I found out that they were planning to attack No. 0. But at that time, I wanted to
It was too late to notify you, so they could only watch you make the call as they wished. They followed the number you dialed and found the location where the equipment was stored, attracted the sea monster here, and captured it."
"Because I was afraid of being discovered too close, I stayed far away. I didn't hear anything useful, and I didn't know what the purpose was. I only saw the group of people injecting a large amount of anesthetic into it, and then
Lock it inside the base."
"Because the situation is complicated, I asked my superiors for instructions, and they instructed me to tell you about the sea monster." He looked deeply at Assistant Wu, "The final decision is up to you."
It's up to you to choose whether you want to stay with Sumu and wait for a crisis that you don't know will come; or come to the sea monster to protect it from the danger that has already occurred.
Obviously, Assistant Wu has made her own choice.
Assistant Wu rubbed his face and took a deep breath.
"Have those people left?"
Pei Jiu nodded.
"I've been gone for a while." After saying that, he looked at Assistant Wu's expression and added, "The sea monster is still inside."
"……I gonna go see."
As if he had made an extremely difficult decision, Assistant Wu said in a hoarse voice.
Pei Jiu silently followed Assistant Wu, watching the thin but tall figure in front of him move down step by step.
Knowing most of the truth, he wished for a moment that the steps were so long that she would never reach the end.
In this way, she can hold on to the slightest illusion and continue to support herself.
However, the reality is that Assistant Wu walked faster and faster, and soon passed the spiral staircase and stood on the flat ground.
The creatures imprisoned in the large water tank clearly come into view.
The huge body, damaged scales, yellow eyes full of animality... It was a completely inhuman creature, with no trace of what it once was like to be seen.
Assistant Wu walked forward silently.
It's rare to see a sea monster so clearly.
It's much clearer than in photos, videos or simply image data.
It clearly and completely shattered Assistant Wu's last illusion.
Her throat rolled up and down for a moment, and she said with some choking: "...Dad, long time no see."
Pei Jiu stood quietly at the back, listening to the girl whose real name was Yuan Jinxin gradually start talking.
"We haven't seen each other for more than ten years. Originally, I was supposed to say that I have grown up, but now it seems that it is time for you to say this."
"...I actually want to ask you if you regret it, but looking at your current state, it's impossible to answer me."
With that said, she took a few steps forward to the water tank and sat down leaning on the wall of the tank.
"My mother misses you very much. She always thought that nothing happened to you. She thought that something was wrong in her heart. I took her away from the island and went outside to receive treatment. The doctor said that heart diseases still need heart medicine. Every time I go,
She even asked me if I had found you..."
"Everyone on the island is living a good life. Lowe's is not short of money and has given them a lot of subsidies, which is enough for everyone to have enough food and clothing. They have also installed Wi-Fi. Now the children can't leave the house all day long.
Yes, no one cares about your beach anymore.”
"And the little fat guy you helped, whose name is Song Fuchang, do you remember him? He is quite a conscientious person. After all these years, he still wants to help you take revenge. This time I returned to the island and dressed up like this, so many uncles and aunts
, my friends, he is the only one who recognized me and didn’t betray me to the eldest lady, so that’s why the little fat man knows me.”
"By the way, you don't know who the eldest lady is, right?"
"Let me tell you, she is the daughter of the Luo family. She is the eldest daughter of the Luo family. She is a very interesting child. She is hard-spoken and soft-hearted. Your wife's medical expenses are reimbursed every month. She really thinks I don't know... But
I'm just taking the opportunity to act stupid and repay my kindness, so that the master can trust my sincerity more."
"Didn't you always worry that I couldn't find a job? You don't have to worry about it now. I have become an Interpol police officer, and I also serve as Miss Luo's personal assistant. Both salaries are quite good, especially the second one.
, it’s more than enough to buy a house in a city outside. Isn’t it amazing that Erwuzi can do what I do?”
After sniffing, she paused for a moment and continued, "...so you don't have to worry. I'm living a good life, and my mother is doing okay. If nothing else, at least she has enough food and clothing. I will try my best to persuade her."
You are all very well. Without you, the earth will still function normally and people will still live normally."
"I don't know if there is any way to save you. If not, I will let you return to the sea and swim far away. You should be smart and don't get caught and take to the laboratory to make research materials."
"And...I'm sorry, I just came to see you now."
