Tomb Raiders Notes: If Innocence Had a Brother

Time goes back to one day ago

After I put on the previous mask, Li Rui and his team completed the contact with the people from Banai, we did not enter Yao Village immediately. Instead, we went to Chen Pi Asi's stronghold in the mountains under the leadership of Li Si'an.

When we reopened the [Eight] secret room, seven days had passed since they disappeared. The waiter outside estimated that the food and water inside would only last for two days if they were frugal. When we opened the secret room, there were people lying on the ground.

Except for Mrs. Huo, who was not in good condition due to her age, most of them were just exhausted.

"Do you know where Huo Sisi disappeared?" When the guys were checking the situation in the secret room, Li Rui asked Zhang Qiling, the only one who was awake.

Zhang Qiling nodded. I took a bottle of glucose from the clerk, opened it and handed it to him. After watching him finish one bottle, I took another bottle and gave Li Rui a look while passing it over.

"Can you take us there now?" Li Rui asked.

Zhang Qiling nodded.

After settling the others, I asked the man to carry Zhang Qiling on his back and show us the way. After leaving the secret room, we came to a corridor. On the stone walls on both sides of the corridor were carved scenes of a group of people mourning, ranging from mountains and rivers to the blue sea.

Zhang Qiling clicked on one place and opened a secret door next to it. After we entered, we found a hole in one wall of the dark room, and we could see traces of blasting.

The hole was so small that no one could enter except for Zhang Qiling, who knew how to shrink the bones. I stuck my head in and picked up the searchlight to look at the situation inside. After carefully investigating, Huo Sisi chose the same idea as Sichuan, exposing the inside and working backwards. This is a "workshop" for agency operations.

I lowered my voice and said to Li Rui, "Open this hole wider and don't affect the inside."

Professional matters still depend on professionals. While waiting, I took out my tablet to check the situation inside. Glancing at Zhang Qiling, he suddenly realized a problem.

"You've been in there!" I blurted out, realizing something was wrong.

As soon as I finished speaking, the hole over there had been opened in a circle, and Zhang Qiling jumped up and got in.

"Li Rui, follow me. The others will stay outside." After explaining, I hung the searchlight on my waist and got in one after another with Li Rui.

You can see Zhang Qiling climbing down. I cursed secretly, I was being fooled. In the original work, Zhang Qiling experienced strong alkali and did not eat for a long time before showing weakness. The situation now is countless times better than it was then. Of course, it is possible to move around freely, but they may not know our details and deliberately show weakness to lower our vigilance.

"Don't have a head-on conflict." I saw Zhang Qiling stopped on a platform and told Li Rui.

When Li Rui and I were standing on the platform, Zhang Qiling stepped aside, and the light of the searchlight illuminated the darkness behind him. I felt dizzy for a moment, and there was a woman lying there.

I staggered over and saw a stench spreading out. I turned the body over with trembling hands. It was Huo Sisi.

"How did she die?" I opened and closed my mouth to ask a question.

"She was stuck in the mechanism. When I carried her to this platform, she ran out of energy." Zhang Qiling looked down and answered. "Wu Kang, go back."

I rummaged through Huo Sisi's bag, but there was no water or dry food in it. "Where's her water?"

"Stay up there." Zhang Qiling replied.

"Bring a bottle of water down." I raised my head and said to Li Rui.

Li Rui said to be careful and climbed out again.

"How did you recognize me?" I took off my coat and covered Huo Sisi's upper body.

You must know that in order to change the body shape, Huo Sisi designed a complete set of disguises for this identity. Four centimeters of height-increasing insoles, shoulder pads, etc.

"Speech habits." Zhang Qiling replied, "You are very good at false pronunciation, but you still have the habit of articulating words."

"When did you start doubting me?"

"When we were in the Beijing compound."

When Li Rui came back, I brought water to Huo Sisi to clean the exposed skin. The lower half of Huo Sisi's body was a little deformed, and there was dried blood on her face. She didn't know how Zhang Qiling got her out.

I wiped the blood stains little by little with water. She lay here for a week. The condition of the body was not very good, so I didn't dare to use force. Finally, Huo Sisi's body was wrapped and fixed with Li Rui's and mine coats.

"You carry the eldest lady up." I fixed the body on Li Rui's back with a rope, "Don't let anyone open it and look at it. Take good care of it and transport it back to Beijing early tomorrow morning."

"You can't go down." Zhang Qiling said.

"What if I want to go down? Will you kill me?" I watched Li Rui slowly climb up with Huo Sisi on his back.

"No." Zhang Qiling thought for a moment and replied, "But you will die down there. Your brother will be sad."

"So I won't die." I smiled forcefully.

Zhang Qiling blocked the way down and expressed his attitude very straightforwardly.

"I'm very happy." I grabbed Zhang Qiling who fell backwards and dragged him into the inside of the platform. "You can care about my brother. You have always supported each other. Live a good life in the future and forget all those messy things. My brother can afford to support you by running a shop. Don't pay attention to those obscure things anymore."

Throwing away the gun in his hand, he waved goodbye to Zhang Qiling who fell to the ground.

Going all the way down, I saw blood spattering on the ground, and there were signs of prying at the joint of the agency. I took out the crowbar and inserted it into the gap. As soon as I was able to pry half of my body open, I took a deep breath and stepped in. The next second the crowbar broke, and the flying stones scratched my cheek. I touched it with my hand, and the outer mask was scratched.

After entering, I found a large room with large beams at my feet, caustic soda all over the floor, a coffin in the middle, and a memorial tablet and an offering table in the center.

I tied a rope from the beam and lowered it to the ground. The powder stirred up made my respiratory tract burn and I coughed uncontrollably. From the messy footprints on the ground and the marks on the wall, we can infer that there was a fierce battle here not long ago. It is possible that when Huo Sisi left in a hurry, the crowbar suddenly broke after being squeezed twice, causing her to be stuck by the mechanism.

Suddenly there was a "coo-coo" sound coming from the coffin, which was obviously the same language as the Zongzi dialect spoken in Prince Lu's palace.

He took out half a bottle of red liquid obtained from the Sichuan Agency and took every step he took carefully. As I got closer, the coffin vibrated more and more loudly. Finally, with a "pound" sound, the coffin lid flew up and hit me.

After dodging the coffin lid, a zombie wearing soft armor flew out of it and came straight towards me.

I poured out the liquid in my hand, and lost more than half of it in an instant. Unfortunately, I didn't hit even a drop. Gritting his teeth and rolling to the side, Shinichi Heng poured the rest into his hand, got up and rushed towards the zombie.

As one person froze and collided with another, the huge impact caused me to fly out instantly, hit the wall and then fell to the ground, stirring up dust all over the room. I coughed violently, my respiratory tract was burning, and I spit out a mouthful of bloody phlegm.

Seeing that the zombie stopped in place, I guessed it was done. To ensure success, I held my chest and walked over.

The soft armor was made of who knows what, but it was actually glowing. The zombie was very tall, over 1.9 meters. In my opinion, the Zhang family would not be very tall, because being too tall would affect their performance in the tomb.

When I raised my head, my breathing stopped instantly. The zombie's face was covered with a mask of the same material, with only its mouth and eyes exposed. Those blood red eyes were staring at me.

With trembling hands, I touched the mask and poured the little liquid left in the bottle into the zombie's mouth. I don't know how much it can get in, most of it flows into the soft armor.

He slowly backed away and walked towards the coffin. There was a black gold knife lying inside, with a circle of cloth wrapped around the handle. Due to its age, it turned into ashes when touched, revealing a strange totem on the top of the handle.

Pulling the knife out, the knife is very heavy, about thirty kilograms. The impact just now and the strong alkali inhalation had a big impact on my subsequent actions.

I took off my clothes, wrapped the knife, and tied it to Chiguo's upper body with a rope. Climbing up the beam while coughing.

I turned around halfway and was so frightened that I almost lost my grip on the rope. The zombie turned its head and looked at me. Instantly, I was covered in cold sweat and I tried my best to climb up.

Climb up and take off the knife, then use your shoulder to make a fulcrum to pry open the mechanism.

As I ducked out, the mechanism suddenly closed. The owner of those eyes appeared on the rafter a second before it closed.

I squatted on the ground, trying to find my missing heartbeat. All the cells in my body were clamoring to go faster.

Later, when Li Rui saw that I was not coming back, he couldn't help but come down. He first found Zhang Qiling lying on the platform and the man beside him, and took them up. After coming down again, I found myself stopped halfway.

Li Rui was shocked when he met him. He said that when he spoke to me, I didn't know what to say back. He kept saying, "It's time, it's time."

Fortunately, people still knew that they couldn't climb up and found a relatively safe place to stay, so they didn't run around.

After coming up, Li Rui only had time to put a large band-aid on the damaged area of ​​my mask. Zhang Qiling woke up right there. Li Rui called over five guys before he pinned me down and applied glucose mixed with calming ingredients.

That anesthetic can only last for two to three hours. If I fail, Banai's forces will all serve the Wu Xie trio.

An hour later, I recovered. After checking my body and finding that there was nothing serious, I ordered the "workroom" of the agency to be completely closed.

Soon Li Rui said that Wu Sansheng and Fatty were here.

time back to now

Wu Xie was immersed in the word "brother" and his expression was a bit gloomy.

The fat man didn't know what was going on. He checked the infusion needle when no one was paying attention, and found that the needle had penetrated under the skin and was covered by white tape. The liquid soaked along the back of his hand and soaked the outer clothes.

The fat man signaled Wu Xie to take a look and then covered him up.

"Go out first." Wu Xie whispered.

As a result, by the next day, the Huo family had no intention of leaving. On the contrary, the guy who came to give Zhang Qiling an injection asked Fatty and Wu Xie to trick him back.
