After the operator next to him pressed a few buttons, the six small silver balls floated in mid-air, making a buzzing sound. Not only that, but a large amount of shaking light was projected around the small balls, shining on the surrounding walls, then quickly flew forward.
It could be seen that as these 6 silver balls flew forward, the instrument next to them also began to quickly map the places they flew past. This kind of advanced technology really made Fang Linyan feel that it was an eye-opener!
However, after he tried to inquire about the price, he immediately gave up. It turned out that the full name of this silver ball was "Kadinski" Holographic Floating Detector. The cost price of each one was more than 1 million USD.
What was even more perverted was that the supporting equipment had to be bought separately, and the maintenance cost was also quite astonishing. In short, it was impossible to afford without 10 million USD. Probably only a big company like Dakland could afford it.
While the Kadinski Detector was flying and surveying, Ishida, as the chief researcher, also began to bring people into the computer in the nearest work area, trying to access the effective information inside. Delto's subordinates also began to conduct a comprehensive search on the map drawn.
Fang Linyan watched coldly from the side. He found that these people were indeed very elite. The methodical professionalism shown in the search was very worthy of learning.
Approximately 10 minutes later, Ishida walked over to Delto, his face beaming with joy.
"Boss, now we can almost be sure that this is the ruins of Veronica's laboratory. We have now found some very useful information."
Delto nodded slightly. Although he was still expressionless, there was still a touch of joy in his eyes.
At this time, someone suddenly shouted not far away, and Delto hurried over. Anything could happen in this damn place, so it was always good to be more careful.
Fang Linyan felt a chill in his heart, and he also followed. He found that nothing happened there, but a group of 3 people found a permanent sentry tower that had been built. Although the weapons on it had been removed, they were still squatting and studying something.
Fang Linyan looked at the sentry tower for a long time, but he couldn't figure it out. It wasn't until the professional next to him explained that he suddenly realized:
From the fixed marks on it, it could be seen that the heavy weapon installed on it could be rotated. It could be aimed outside or fired inside!
This meant that when the designer built this laboratory, he knew that there might be a dangerous situation inside, so he directly used this kind of variable direction fixed hole. This would also greatly increase the cost, but the construction company still did not hesitate to do it.
Not only that, but a total of eight of these permanent sentry towers were found, which showed how strict the defense was at that time.
After about half an hour, they finally detected the main entrance at the end of the work area. The sign on it said that it was extremely dangerous and couldn't be opened. Two things had already been ascertained.
Firstly, if one wanted to go deep into the ruins, they had to enter from here. According to Longi Hale's notes, in order to avoid biochemical contamination, the interior of the laboratory was actually hundreds of meters underground. The only entrance was the elevator at the end of the main passage.
Secondly, the internal area was always electrified, so if there was anything inside, there was a high probability that it would be preserved in the freezer.
For the sake of caution, Delto took a picture of this door and prepared to package and upload it with some information found outside the ruins for the company's internal personnel to analyze and give the next instructions.
Then because there was no signal inside the ruins, they needed to go out and upload it. Then considering the strong interference here and the feedback time from the headquarters, they would leave for at least an hour, so they asked Ishida to come and preside over all the affairs.
To be honest, Fang Linyan didn't like Ishida. Although this guy was polite and bowed before speaking, he always felt that there was a kind of hypocrisy in his bones. He didn't hide his perfunctory nature.
So when Delto left, Fang Linyan chose to stay away from him. Fortunately, Ishida was very tactful and didn't bother him. Otherwise, Fang Linyan didn't mind tricking him.
"We found the peripheral power room!"
Just when Fang Linyan led people to collect useful information, the person who was supervising the drawing of the map suddenly shouted.
Ishida's eyes lit up after hearing it, and he nodded and said,
"Okay! Get ready, let's go over and connect the peripheral power of this base first! "
There was no problem with Ishida's decision at this time. First of all, if there was electricity, most of the areas in the laboratory could be lit up. Otherwise, if there was any danger, it would be too passive to fight in the dark.
Secondly, the most valuable thing here was the research materials left behind before. These materials were very likely to be stored in the computer, which also needed a power supply.
Similarly, there might be some usable weapons in the laboratory, but they also needed electricity to be controlled. As for how to control them, there was a hacker expert in the team left behind at this time.
After leaving a few people here to cover the rear and set up a defense, Ishida set off with a group of people. Of course, he also called Fang Linyan. The group walked through the dark underground area.
Although there was a map drawn by the "Kadins" holographic floating detector, the area here was abnormally wide, and the passages through were also frequent and crisscrossed. More importantly, it was in absolute darkness. They had to explore in a safe situation, so the speed was quite slow.
Without the support of an electronic map, they had to leave marks along the way. Otherwise, there would be a risk of getting lost on the return journey.
The group walked for about 10 minutes, and the office areas they saw along the way were quite orderly.
At this time, the group was already in the armed search and assault mode. They needed to maintain a tactical shooting posture and carry about 30 kilograms of equipment to move forward with full concentration. So even well-trained soldiers were quite tired to maintain such a posture in the dark for 10 minutes, so they often needed to rest.
During the break, Fang Linyan found a coffee cup on the desk next to him. Although there was no liquid in the cup, there was a vague "apple pie" word on the packaging box next to it.
What did this mean? The owner of the desk had just poured himself a cup of hot coffee and was about to eat the apple pie that had been heated up. However, something unexpected happened and made him give up on the meal and leave.
"Huh?"
After Fang Linyan checked the things on the left, he suddenly found that there seemed to be something under the cabinet next to him. The angle was more hidden, so only he could see it from his position.
Then Fang Linyan walked over and looked at it. Finally, he found that it was another corpse lying below!!
The strangest thing was that this corpse didn't turn into white bones, but it was a dried corpse with a yellowish surface. Fang Linyan picked up a pen next to him and tapped the surface lightly. He found that the dried corpse made a crisp "shell" sound as if he was knocking hard plastic.
Seeing that Fang Linyan had found something, the rest of the people also gathered around. After some discussion, they did not touch the dried corpse. Instead, they lifted the cabinet together. Then a behavioral expert approached, sprayed disinfectant first, and then sprayed enhanced luminol (luminescent ammonia) reagent.
This was a very sensitive reagent that could detect blood with only one millionth of content. Even a small drop of water in a large tank of water could be detected.
Moreover, this reagent had now been improved by the Dakland Company. Even the bloodstains from decades ago could be seen at a glance.
After the reagent was sprayed, it could be seen that there was an obvious fluorescence effect on the corpse. Not only that, but there were also clear footprints on the ground. There were also clear drip marks next to them, extending from the outside and finally stopping at his feet …
Seeing this scene, someone immediately said decisively,
"He was injured when he ran in, and he stepped on blood at the same time."
"This person must have encountered something terrifying. He has lost his mind here, but he can't move forward, so he took the initiative to crawl under the cabinet."
"His torso muscles are not developed, and he doesn't wear any weapons on his body, indicating that he is just a civilian staff."
"There are many reasons for forming a dried corpse, but in this environment, the rest of the corpses have turned into white bones. Only he has become a dried corpse, indicating that the reason is related to his internal environment after death."
"He has an employee tag on him. This guy's name is Custer Jones. Oh, God, the starting and ending time is from June 2007 to April 2010. This secret base was still in operation more than 6 years ago! "
"I found the fatal wound. It's very strange. It's a wound caused by a sharp weapon. It's a one-hit kill!"
“.....”
Speaking of this, the expert specially demonstrated why he felt that the wound was strange.
It turned out that the fatal wound on this corpse was actually pierced from the top of the head into the chest, and the wound was a narrow gap about 2 centimeters wide!
Moreover, there was no weapon found in the corpse, which meant that the murderer pulled out the weapon and took it away after committing the murder!
Hearing the description of this expert, the only way Fang Linyan could think of to kill someone was actually a master in Wuxia or Xianxia. He directly jumped above the opponent's head with Cloud Ladder, then he stabbed down with his sword from head to toe, then he ran away.
This scene could be said to be the essence of killing a person in 10 steps and not leaving a trace for thousands of miles.
But even if it was such an outrageous conjecture, there was still a premise that was difficult to circumvent. When the corpse was found, he was lying in the narrow space under the cabinet. His head was facing the wall, and the distance between him and the thick reinforced concrete wall was only about 20 to 30 centimeters!
Then, how did the murderer draw his sword?
