"It's not difficult for me to let you go, but why should I do that?"
The chief's office in the City Hall was a semi-circular hall. The floor was covered with a thick, round carpet that fit perfectly. The floor lamp was set to half-light, and half of the space in the hall was dyed a pale orange. It was as if the setting sun had been mixed with water and was sprinkled into the air.
Aliba's image was reflected on the screen. Amidst the bright and dark intersecting light, it was glowing with a white light.
Under his long and narrow eyelids, Aliba's gloomy gaze swept across the chief's office. When he saw two feet peeking out from behind the desk, the muscles under his eyes twitched slightly. Then, as if to conceal his emotions, he knocked on the desk with his fingers.
He still had a deep impression of the leather shoes on those feet.
Aliba felt a shiver rising from his lower abdomen. A muddle-headed thought flashed across his mind. He coughed and sneered, "You guys have embarrassed me by escaping from the tournament. Now, you want me to withdraw the military and police? Why? Hmph, I know where you guys are. I can send my troops to surround you! "
After hearing his question, Xueqin, Bai Xiaoke, and the rest looked at each other and realized that their faces were slightly pale.
It was a surprise to have a conversation with Aliba here. When they first came out of the wormhole, they almost thought that Gong Daoyi had betrayed them. However, after being stunned for half a second, Xu Wei realized that it was a holographic screen the size of a full-body mirror. On the holographic screen, Aliba, who was dressed in a military uniform, appeared to be exactly the size of a human. At first glance, one would think that he was standing in the room.
"Didn't I say that I had a way to save everyone?" At that time, Gong Daoyi's clear and gentle voice slightly relaxed everyone's tense expressions. "So, before I went to look for you guys, I contacted Mr. Chief of Police's communicator."
Negotiation was Gong Daoyi's idea.
Among them, it was obvious that he was the only one who had prepared his plan. The women looked at him, but Xueqin didn't even look at him. She only said in a cold and low voice, "If you have anything to say, tell him quickly!"
Gong Daoyi nodded. When he turned his head to face the light screen, he seemed to have suddenly thought of something that made him want to laugh. Scattered starlight flashed across his eyes, but no one saw it.
He pointed at the chief executive's desk not far away and said in a gentle tone, "Mr. Chief of Police should have noticed it too, right? Mr. Chief. He has already passed away. "
"So what?" Aliba resisted the itch in his heart. "You will only die faster!"
"Really?" Gong Daoyi smiled. "Personally, I think it's very convenient for the Chief Executive to die in this turmoil."
Aliba's eyelids twitched. There was no reply.
After the news of the female Mutate's escape could no longer be concealed, he was almost sent to court by the administrative officials. Aliba had gone through a lot of trouble before he was reluctantly given the punishment of being temporarily detained for observation. This time, he led the team to encircle and annihilate them with the intention of redeeming himself.
But no matter how hard he tried to make up for it, it was not as clean as letting his opponent die …
"Let's make a deal." Gong Daoyi put his hands into his trouser pockets. His slender and straight body looked like a bamboo in the dark. "Your Excellency, please open a path for us to gather here. After seeing that they are fine, Mr. Chief of Police will point out a few locations and we will send a small team to destroy them … What do you think? "
"Doesn't that mean we are working for him?" Bai Xiaoke blurted out involuntarily from behind.
Aliba's heart skipped a beat. He had an army. But there were too many factors that kept him in check. If all his political enemies were dead … then Garden of Eden would be his private property from then on.
Thinking of this, he could already feel a heat rising in his chest. It was so hot that he opened his mouth slightly. However, Aliba didn't say anything. He only glanced at the crowd with a gloomy gaze.
"To us, it doesn't matter who we kill or where we destroy. It doesn't make any difference." Gong Daoyi didn't turn around, but his calm voice seemed to be answering the questions in the women's hearts. "If we can get a life back by changing our target, I think it's a worthwhile trade."
"After all, for Mr. Chief of Police, it's a life-and-death struggle. It doesn't seem worth it to let others benefit from it. Other than the location of the attack, you can also decide on the number of assassins in the team. "
"However. We need some sincerity from Mr. Chief of Police — "As he said this, he tilted his head at the person on the screen. "Sir, how can you guarantee that we will be able to leave safely after this?"
Gong Daoyi spoke slowly. His words made Aliba unable to control his heartbeat anymore. He threw his head back and laughed loudly. Then, he raised a finger from the screen and pointed at Gong Daoyi, "… Fine! Let's do it this way. After the mission is completed, I will naturally let you go. My words are the guarantee that you will be able to escape unscathed! "
Xueqin snorted loudly. She was both disdainful and angry. However, before she could say anything, Bai Xiaoke pulled on her clothes and stopped her.
"Let's see how Mr. Gong will solve this —" she said in a low voice, her tone full of confidence.
However, to everyone's surprise, Gong Daoyi agreed immediately, "Alright, it's a deal. Then, we will contact our companions. Please release the encirclement. "
As soon as he said this, everyone felt uneasy. However, because of Aliba, they didn't say anything.
Aliba didn't expect Gong Daoyi to agree so readily. He squinted his eyes and looked at Gong Daoyi carefully. After a few seconds, he smiled casually and said, "I don't know what's wrong with you. One moment, you betray them, and the next moment, you want to save them …"
He was sure that the female mutants wouldn't know that Gong Daoyi was selling information. Now that he said this, it was like planting a bomb in the enemy's camp. It might come in handy in the future …
However, he was disappointed in the next second. The female mutants on the other side only frowned slightly, but their expressions did not change much. Gong Daoyi walked closer to the holographic screen and knocked on the base of the communication device a few times. With an innocent and confused expression, he said, "Hello? Why is there no sound? Is the signal bad? "
Aliba was finally impressed by his methods.
After the 'signal' was restored, the two of them discussed the details in a few words. Then, Aliba turned off the communication device. The room turned dark. Dong Haohao, who had been holding back for a long time, was the first to ask sharply, "… We were the ones who were assassinating us. Aren't you afraid that he will kill us all and become a national hero?"
"Ah … It's okay, it's okay." Gong Daoyi smiled lazily and combed his hair to the back. "Leave it to me."
This time, even though he didn't seem to listen to Dong Haohao's words, these four short words were somehow very convincing. The women looked at each other and didn't say a word.
The night was still long.
In the end, there were nine teams that had contacted Xueqin's team. Excluding Ah Lu's team, there was still an entire team that had gone missing. They must have met with misfortune.
However, these nine teams weren't unscathed. When everyone finally understood the situation and escaped the encirclement like frightened birds, there were some who were injured, some who died in battle, and some who left halfway. In the end, only about three-quarters of the original number of people gathered at the city hall.
It was already four o 'clock in the morning.
During this period of time, no matter how many times Bai Xiaoke called Li Tao's communication device, she didn't get any response. Lin Sanjiu also didn't show herself. One of the teams that passed by the rendezvous point also said that they didn't see anyone near the factory.
Perhaps it was because Lin Sanjiu didn't show up for a long time, but the atmosphere was unwittingly heavy. Panicked whispers came from one person's mouth, but they turned into air and were inhaled by the rest of the team.
Aliba's orders came very quickly and didn't give them any chance to catch their breath. It would be dawn in an hour. Once the sun rose, this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity would vanish like a bubble. After he listed out the names of four families that needed to be "exterminated", the few well-preserved teams had no choice but to set off immediately.
Before tonight, the posthumans probably wouldn't have thought that they would become the knife in the hands of the military police in Garden of Eden. Just as they were feeling suffocated and frustrated, Lin Sanjiu sighed and cursed.
"I didn't f * cking expect there to be someone as crazy as you in this world."
