“What are you doing?” He turned to her in suspicion.
“Hehe…” Yao Si froze.“If…Isaid there’s a bug on your collar, would you believe me?”
“Really?” He jumped, swiping his collar violently.“I hate bugs, hurry…help me see if it’s off!”
“…”Damn!He actually fell for that.“It’s…gone.”
“That’s good.” He heaved a sigh, worry still etched on his face. He swiped his collar a few more times.“Right, judging from your clothes, you must be a guard from above? Are you here to deliver more resources?”
It only now dawned on Yao Si that she had changed into the guard’s uniform.
“Yea, yes!” Shenodded frantically. They just might be able to escapethissuccessfully.
“Then why are you guys in the main control room? Don’t you know that only researchers are allowed in basement five?” He frowned, then added,“Are you lost? Isthat why you’re here?”
Yao Si glanced at Bai Yi, nodding.
“I knew it.” He nodded as well, now that his doubt was cleared.“The defense system of all five floors renews every ten minutes, even if you come tothe main control room, you won’t be able to find your way.”
“Brother, could you direct us?” she asked smoothly.
“You can exit after turning right, even though I’m just a small assistant here, Ican still give an entry pass to you.” He tapped his optical computerwhile casually walking toward the door.
Yao Si heaved a sigh of relief, then tooka good look abovehis head. Her heart sank.“He’s going to sound the alarm!Bai Yi, stop him!”
Bai Yi rushed forward, pinning the man to the floor so violentlyhis shoulders went flat.
“You’re one of the Elastics.” Bai Yi pressed down on his squishy shoulders.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtElastics? Squishy? The manseemedlike a gummi!
“You, what are you going to do?” heasked frantically.“I was going to offer you a way out, why are you capturing me?”
Yao Si walked forward.“Stop lying!” The words above his head had longagobetrayed him.“You were clear that we don’t belong here, so tell me, where’s the bloodling you caught?”
“Bloodling? What bloodling?” He shook his head vigorously, pretending to be dumb.
“I heard that your race doesn’t have any bones, just one slightweakness…” Bai Yi said in a wondering tone, his gaze shiftingdownwards to a certain area.
The man shiveredand brought his hands to shield himself.“You, what do you want? I don’t know where they are.”
“What do you think I want to do?” Bai Yi broke into a devilish smile.
“Don’t be reckless!”
“Don’t worry, Iknow my limits, you won’t be hurt.”
“No!”
Eheheh?! Isn’t this conversation getting weird? Why is there agitationon the man’s face?
Yao Siturned to stare at Bai Yi’s actions. He had raised his hands toward the guards –bellybutton!
He wailed in pain.“Ow! Ow! … It hurts, hurts!”
Yao Sistared, speechless.Erm, this is what you do after removing his pants?
She would much rather read the words!
Lifting her head towards the guard’s head, she did just that.
[As a timid Elastics researcher, he was terrified, but regardless of how scared he was, he would never reveal to the intruders that the the bloodlings were in the sampling room to the right of the main control room.]
“They are in the sampling room on the right.”
Bai Yi froze. He then opened the door to the right,andthe sampling room was indeed right there.
“You…How did you know? Don’t be reckless!”
[The researcher was not the least bit worried. Even if they knew the location, they would never know to close the poisongas before entering.]
“Wait! There’s a poisonousgas devicethere.”
Bai Yi instantly took several steps back.
“How did you know that!” he exclaimed.
[The researcher still wasn’t worried. Even if they knew about the poisonousgas, they would never know that its control was below the control table.]
“The switch is below the control table.”
Bai Yi knelt down, there was indeed a red control buttonthere.
“…”
[The researcher still wasn’t worried. Even if they managed to turn off the defense, they would never know that his DNA was required to enter the sampling room]
“His DNA is required to open the sampling room’sdoor.”
“…”
[The researcher was starting to worry. The intruders knew this base like the back of their hands, though could never know that he was Professor Fu who was incharge of this wholebase.]
“Bring him along, he’s the person in charge of this experimental base!”
“…”Ishouldn’t have gone to the toilet…
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYao Si glanced at Elastic professor’s words as she switched off the various defensivesystemsaccording to what she read in the subtitles.
A certain someone remained in a daze the entire time, only regaining his senses later. Trembling, he pointed at her.“You-you have an ability. It’s to read minds, right?”
The real mind reader Bai Yidid not have anything to say.Why did he seem like somebody of lower level?
[The researcher began to randomizehis thoughts to prevent Yao Si from reading his mind,but he didn’t know that her ability was to form subtitles, not to read minds. It was just like how it could only form the passcode for the sampling room: 00769]
“The code is 00769!”Thanks, Elastic professor.
Mr. Candy was in a daze.
Bai Yi sighed, then tapped the man’s chest.“Trust me, she can’t read minds. It’s an external ability, so all thosedistractions you’re planting in your mind won’t affect her.” He himself wasn’t interested either….
Elastic professor did not have a way to respond to that.
After a few creeks, the samplingroom’sdoor unlocked.
Yao Si enteredfirst. Inside, there were a couple people in white gownsaround an operating table, preparing to start their work. When theyheard the door open, the whole group turned in unison, and this timeBai Yi did not need a reminder. Herushed forward and incapacitatedall of them.
Luckily, there wasn’t anyone else from the Elastic race.
Yao Si’s heart tightened. She hadnever expected the researchers tohave harmed the bloodlings. In a hurry,she ran toward the operating table.
“Nephew Gu,you… Luo Ying!”
There was a personlying on the lit up transparent operating table, but it wasn’t Nephew Gu. It was his cub, Luo Ying, instead,and she was clearly held in captivity.
Why was she here?
“Luo Ying! Luo Ying!” Bai Yi came over and tappedher face,but she remainedunresponsive, as though fast asleep.“What should we do?”
Yao Si turned to look toward the professor. The subtitles were as reliable as wever. “She’s been injected with an inhibitor. The blue needle contains the antidote.”
Bai Yi grabbed the blue needle on the rightand jabbed it into Luo Ying’s arm. Once the liquid entered her system, she finally reacted, by taking a deep breath and waking up.
“Bai Yi?” She hesitated, confusion flashing past her eyes. She then turned and saw Yao Si. “President? What are you… Right! Shucheng!” She bolted up abruptly. “Did you see Shucheng? I thought I saw him fainted near—”
Diiiiiiiiiiiiing!
Before she could finish her sentence, asiren sounded through the base.
