With Lin Sanjiu leading the way, Xu Xiaoyang and his team were crowned as "war heroes". They were welcomed into the building where Chen Jinfeng's office was located amidst the cheers of the crowd.
In front of many people, Chen Jinfeng praised them with a smile. But when he turned around to lead the way, his face was so dark that water could be wrung out of it.
Ever since he became a cadre, this was the first time he felt so uncertain.
It was not difficult to make those people "mission death". If they failed this time, there would be a next time. His main concern was that once those people met with Marcie, they would cause trouble. In the past, he was confident that he could cover up the mess. But now, that woman with the surname Lin suddenly revealed such a powerful ability. This was what shocked him.
In the end, it was all because of the inaccurate information! "That guy clearly said that the ability of this woman's card, her companions' transformation, data analysis, and so on didn't have much practical value …"
"Cadre Chen, do you know where Marcie went?" Just then, Lin Sanjiu's voice rang out from behind him.
Chen Jinfeng quivered. He thought for a moment and said calmly, "I am also looking for her! When you guys see her, ask her to come and find me. I want her to work in the infirmary. "
Lin Sanjiu replied with a hesitant "hmm" and did not say anything else.
In the dim light of the corridor, Septimus suddenly smiled.
They soon arrived at Chen Jinfeng's office.
After mourning for Gao Fei for a while, Chen Jinfeng called someone to bring in a few boxes of supplies as a reward. Lin Sanjiu took a look and found that the items inside were quite complete. Other than most of the sealed food that had not been damaged by the high temperature, there were a lot of daily necessities, pens, flashlights, batteries, and other miscellaneous items.
Lin Sanjiu had no shortage of food and daily necessities. She casually rummaged through the boxes and found a cockroach gel bait at the bottom.
In the terrifying temperature of Hyperthermal Hell, the only creatures that had survived alongside humans until now were the disgusting cockroaches. They did not evolve and relied on their original body structure to withstand the high temperature. Hence, their numbers had decreased sharply.
An idea came to Lin Sanjiu. She picked up the gel bait and smiled, "Coincidentally, I need this for my room. You guys can divide the rest. I only need this one. "
She had thought that she would be able to do as she pleased, but Xu Xiaoyang was sitting at the side and did not even look at the box. Gray did not move either. Septimus only took two flashlights and gave the rest to Hu Changzai. Hu Changzai did not know what to do.
Seeing that everyone had finished distributing their items, Chen Jinfeng said a few words with a face full of smiles. Even the government had melted under the high temperature, but his bureaucratic tone was not affected at all. While he was talking, Lin Sanjiu covered her mouth and pretended to sneeze. Then, she called out her Diary Card in a low voice.
Perhaps she was lucky, but this time, the Diary Card obediently appeared.
As soon as the card slipped into her hand, she gripped it tightly. Then, she unscrewed the cockroach glue bait, squeezed out some glue, and stuck it on the back of the Diary Card. A line of words appeared on the card. "12: 58 AM. Location: Chen Jinfeng's office. Lin Sanjiu squeezed the disgusting cockroach glue bait on this card. "
Lin Sanjiu did not care about his subtle protest. Her ability, [Planar World], would sometimes make her behave like a human. Even though she had never seen it on anyone else, she was already used to it. She took the opportunity when Chen Jinfeng stopped to drink his water to walk to his desk as if nothing had happened. She smiled calmly and said, "By the way, Cadre Chen, thank you for taking care of me recently."
As she spoke, she stuck the card under the edge of the desk.
Chen Jinfeng looked at her without noticing anything and laughed a few times. "It's my duty." Lin Sanjiu nodded and turned around. Her eyes met Septimus's.
"Did you see it?" Lin Sanjiu walked over and whispered to Septimus, "Luckily, it's you and not someone else. I want to see how many secrets this Chen fellow has. "
Septimus nodded at her. At that moment, everyone was about to leave. He said, "Let's go," and the two of them walked toward the door. After taking one last look at Chen Jinfeng's desk, Lin Sanjiu closed the door.
The narrow office, which was ten square meters in size, finally regained its silence.
Chen Jinfeng sat quietly behind the desk for a while. He couldn't get rid of the irritation in his heart. He didn't know if it was because he couldn't vent his anger, because Marcie had disappeared from his lair, or because his team's mission had failed … Anyway, this was the first time Chen Jinfeng felt so restless.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang as if something had knocked against the door.
With his enhanced ears, Chen Jinfeng was sure that no one had walked past his door.
After a few seconds, he stood up and pulled the door open.
There was no one at the door except for a pebble on the ground. He looked around and saw a familiar figure standing at the end of the corridor.
"Why are you here?" Chen Jinfeng asked as he walked toward the person. "Why are you looking for me?"
One meter, two meters, three meters … Okay, that's enough.
The person smiled and said, "I wanted to ask you, what did you do to Marcie?"
The width of the room should be 4 meters and 2.5 meters respectively. It was a total of ten square meters. The effective range of the Diary Card was five meters in radius and five meters in length and width, which was 25 square meters. Therefore, the conversation at this location would not be recorded.
The reason why this person knew so clearly was because Lin Sanjiu had told him personally.
"What are you talking about …"
"Don't waste your time," Septimus interrupted him. Septimus immediately interrupted him. "We never told you that Marcie studied medicine before. You actually met her after we left, didn't you? Then, you did something, and now she's gone. "
The man in front of him pursed his lips and his eyes darkened. Seeing that expression, Septimus smiled with satisfaction. He had guessed it right.
"Don't worry, I'm not here to punish you … I know the reason why Marcie disappeared. You wanted to kill me and Lin Sanjiu in this mission, right? "Septimus's smile remained unchanged." I can't satisfy your desire to kill me for now. However, Lin Sanjiu is too much of a hindrance. I also hope that she will disappear as soon as possible. So, do you want to cooperate with me? "
