City-wide ban

No matter how many times you have experienced it, death is without exception a very painful thing.

Qi Luyao stood at the entrance of the alley in a daze, staring at the man who couldn't be seen by the neon light.The man who seems to have been washed away from all smells is like a cold sea in a storm, turbulent and silent, making it hard to breathe.

Under the faceless mask, the man slowly raised his gun, and the pitch-black muzzle seemed to suck Qi Luyao away.

Like a ghost, a bold idea dominated his mind, so he stared at the man's hand and murmured, "What's the date today."

The exact same question, they were also asked by the one who was kidnapped by Shimizu.

Sure enough? As he? expected, the man's hand holding the gun stopped.

"Xingyuan December 2077, 12." Still asking and answering, it seems that every sentence is reviewing the previous one

"You won't kill me." Qi Luyao's tone rose. "Or? You can't kill me."

Those familiar lines made the man's whole body instantly enveloped in anger, and the muzzle of the gun was intuitively aimed at the center of his brow.

Seeing that the man was about to pull the trigger, Qi Luyao smiled unexpectedly: "You really do? Remember."

This soft word seemed to be a curse, making the muzzle of the gun aimed at his "forehead" instantly pressed down to his chest.

Immediately afterwards, there was a loud bang—"Bang!"

The gunshots were drowned out by the angry cries of the people behind them, and the severe pain was like a flower covered with thorns, bursting into a brilliant blood red in the snowy night.

Qi Luyao fell down slowly, as if time had slowed down, his eyes passed through the mask and met those dark eyes.

At that moment, they saw the man's anger and embarrassment, and the magnanimity and pride on his face seemed to declare that he was the winner of this game.

While in a coma, Qi Luyao felt that his mind was still running non-stop.

When the man did not hesitate to shoot himself, Qi Luyao became suspicious.

This man, who was supposed to meet for the first time, seemed to have made up his mind to kill him long ago. It didn't look like he had murderous intentions when he first met.

But Qi Luyao wasn't sure, so he did a simple test - he didn't expect to bet right.Unexpectedly, there are really some people who will remember the previous things just like me.

In the darkness, Qi Luyao could only feel the bullet flying all over his body, smashing their ribs, muscles, and internal organs into pieces.

"Ahem..." In the pitch black, a heart-piercing pain pulled Qi Luyao out in an instant.

He? Struggled to sit up, took a few big breaths hastily, and slowly recovered his sight.

"You're finally awake." A familiar voice tightened Qi Luyao's heart, and when he turned his head, a familiar but disliked face appeared beside the hospital bed.

——They were taken to a hospital, or rather, to a small clinic.

Qi Luyao endured the severe pain all over his body, and looked up and down the young man in front of him: "Mo Yuanyou?"

At this time, the boy dressed as a student was sitting beside his bed, with a strange and curious face on his face: "How do you know my name?"

This was Qi Luyao's belated reaction. At this point in time, he and Mo Yuanyou didn't know each other—he shouldn't have called them by their names.

Seeing the suspicious look on the young man's face, Qi Luyao said that he has the ability to lie without drafting and immediately went online: "I'm from the University of National Defense. I have had a cooperation project with your school, and I have taken over some student files."

Mo Yuanyou looked at them suspiciously, and seemed afraid to speak for a while.

Their appearance now is obviously different from that of a few months later. They are completely youthful as a college student should have, and their gestures are still full of the immaturity of a teenager.

After observing them for a long time, Mo Yuanyou said hesitantly: "When I passed the alley, I heard gunshots and rushed over."

Qi Luyao looked at the crude facilities around - this is a very simple private clinic, according to their understanding of this business, it is likely to be a black clinic without a license .

He hurriedly looked at his wound sutures and wound cleaning, and after making sure that there were no obvious mistakes, he breathed a sigh of relief.

For Qi Luyao, being sent to such a black clinic can avoid unnecessary trouble, but he can't figure out why Mo Yuanyou sent him here.

——Because? Near?Qi Luyao did the math, and the place where the crime happened is actually about the same distance from here as the Second Court of the Emperor.

Qi Luyao, who has always had doubts about Mo Yuanyou, doesn't even try to hide the doubt in his eyes now.

However, this person didn't seem to understand the look in their eyes, and complained to himself: "I had an appointment with my boyfriend tonight for the holidays, but this happened, and he was throwing a fit at me Woolen cloth……"

Qi Luyao frowned, raised his head? - Boyfriend?Is it Luchai?

Looking down, he saw that the screen of the cell phone that the man was holding was on. This was a cell phone model he had never seen before, and the screen saver was a photo of Lu Chai's sleeping face.

Actually? Really talked?Qi Luyao was a little shocked at this moment - they had doubted their relationship before.

Qi Luyao looked up, and said in a low voice on purpose: "I'm sorry to interrupt your date, why don't you make a video call to? Him? I'll explain it to you..."

Mo Yuanyou was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Don't, don't, if he knows that I'm here to accompany an Omega, it will probably be more violent."

Qi Luyao smiled with a pale face, and didn't say another word.

At this time, the ward was pushed away with a "wow", and the cold wind rushed into the room, causing Qi Luyao to shiver uncontrollably.

"Awake?"

Qi Luyao was about to frown in dissatisfaction, but when he saw the face of the visitor, he let out a low voice in surprise:

"Zhou Bai'an?!"

The young man in a white coat in front of him was a classmate of Qi Luyao's master's degree. Like him, he studied under Ou Wenlin, and he was a Beta with excellent grades.

Zhou Bo'an smiled and reached out to pat him on the shoulder, and said cheerfully, "Isn't it a coincidence? I think it's too coincidental!"

Zhou Bo'an: "At that time, this guy stopped the car on the side of the road and said that he was going to take you to the hospital. I saw——good guy, isn't this an old classmate?! I hurriedly drove to pick you up."

Zhou Bai'an's words made Qi Luyao let down his guard a little.

He looked around and the simple furnishings, thought for a while, hesitated for a while, and asked, "You now...?"

Hearing this, Zhou Bo'an's expression darkened a little bit, but he quickly returned to his carefree look: "Don't mention it, the professional qualification certificate has been stuck seven or eight times, and I really can't pass the exam, and I have no other skills to make ends meet, so I'll just pass it on." Just do it."

After hearing these words, Qi Luyao suddenly felt a little mysterious.

Although this person's grades back then? Not as good as his?, but in the entire Royal Institute of Technology can be regarded as the top of the pyramid, and with a professor like Owen Lin as a guarantee, finding a job is simply a fantasy? Nightmare.

The only thing that can be explained is the reason that also stumped Xia Xinghe back then - gender.

High-level mental activities belong to Omega, high-intensity physical activities belong to Alpha, and the remaining chores and boring things belong to Beta.

This seems to have surpassed the "convention" and turned into a "rule" that cannot be broken.

Just as Qi Luyao was thinking, Zhou Bo'an lowered his voice and said, "I heard? Teacher Ou today..."

Qi Luyao was short of breath, and said with some difficulty: "Yes, I was at the scene..."

Zhou Bo'an sighed: "It's really...it's a pity, the teacher seldom returns to the clinic recently, right?"

Qi Luyao nodded: "Yes, he? Now that the focus has shifted to scientific research, I didn't expect to encounter such a thing when I occasionally go back to the hospital for guidance."

Zhou Boan was silent for a moment: "That is to say? In fact, the teacher will not have any medical disputes at all?"

Qi Luyao's breathing became a little messy, and then he nodded: "Yes, I don't think it's a doctor's trouble either."

At this time, Mo Yuanyou had already left the ward tactfully, and went to the meeting alone, Zhou Boan raised his eyes suddenly, with unprecedented seriousness in his eyes:

"Lu Yao, when I drank with my teacher half a year ago, the teacher told me that he drank too much. Now he is under a lot of pressure to host the project, and there is a risk of losing his head anytime, anywhere."

"I don't have the permission to view it anymore. You and Mr. Ou are close. You should know more about his affairs."

"I think you must also want to find out the truth."

When Qi Luyao left the infirmary in a daze, he realized that he hadn't been in a coma for a long time.

The man really didn't seem to intend to kill him? The bullet missed an important organ, and he bled a little, which can only be regarded as a minor injury.

As a result, when he strolled to the parking lot of the No. [-] Courtyard not far away with his arms folded, it was about the same time? It was just after nine o'clock in the evening.

——At this time last time, they were about the same as Xia Xinghe's breakup gun? Just after the fight, Xia Xinghe bit their ass hard, leaving a semi-permanent tattoo.

Qi Luyao rubbed his nose, didn't stay much longer, lowered his head, and quickly slipped into the outpatient building of the hospital.

At this time, most departments are off work, except for the emergency department, inpatient department, and nurse station? Those who stay up late for surgery, the flow of personnel is much less frequent than during the day?

There was a murder case in the outpatient building during the day, and now it is being tightly cordoned off.Qi Luyao set off the cordon and entered the crime scene as if no one was there, naturally he looked like a criminal police officer in charge of handling the case.

——But they didn't go to the bloody crime scene, but went straight to Owen Lin's office.

It's not that they never doubted the content of Owen Lin's research before, but because of their understanding of this content, they dispelled their doubts in this regard.

"It's about the study of nerve impulse signals in the field of communication."

Probably a long time ago, Owen Lin once mentioned to him:

"Although it is based on the plasticity of synapses and involves some electromagnetic bionics, it is actually a common engineering problem in essence."

How can an engineering problem threaten the life of a professor?While recalling, Qi Luyao quickly found Owen Lin's office.

Although? He? Knows that the teacher will not leave important documents in the unit, but at this time, even a little clue is fine...

The moment Qi Luyao turned into the corridor, their steps stopped in place for a moment—the masked man with the scar was standing at the door of Owenlin's office.

The heartbeat suddenly beat violently, Qi Luyao tried to calm his breath, and Yaoyao looked at the man.

The man seemed to be waiting for him on a special trip: "As expected, you still came after me."

His voice was processed by an external voice changer, with an obviously distorted electric sound.

But Qi Luyao could tell in an instant that this person was the one who was in Xia Xinghe's mobile platform and kept guiding them to the northern suburbs.

Qi Luyao: "Are you..."

Masked man: "Tomorrow at six o'clock in the evening, in the second district of the northern suburbs."

The sound of electricity interrupted their conversation, and Qi Luyao watched helplessly as the man jumped out of the window next to his hand again.

"Is it late? It's too late."
