Chapter 22 Chen Xuan's Method
At this moment, Liu Mei, the person in charge of the project team, stepped on the tire, straightened her back, and emphasized her philosophy word by word:
"I'll say it again."
"I've busted so many drug dens, and every mission I've been on has been met with certain death."
"I've snatched countless lives from the hands of the King of Hell. Who does he think he is?"
"I don't care what kind of monsters they are, I'll beat them all down!"
"Anyway, my orders are orders."
" Ready the infrared and thermal sensors, explosives and guns, and keep the sniper rifles ready. If any non-human objects are detected, directly strike them in the limbs and capture them alive. If they resist, they will be killed."
"Shoot!"
"yes!"
"Estimate all possible destinations in advance. Once the final residential complex is determined, evacuate and control the community within three minutes, and strictly question anyone suspected of committing a crime."
"Finally...if there is a danger, for safety reasons, the target can be shot! The chain of transmission must be stopped!"
Liu Mei was not satisfied with the execution this time. She was not satisfied that she did not take over the control of the six transmission chains. Compared with those in power who enjoyed a safe and comfortable life in the city, she believed more in her keen sense of smell trained in life and death.
From the optimal plan to the backup plan, Liu Mei made detailed plans based on the existing information. Not only the project team one, but also the plans from one to five are similar, except that there are more judgments in the decision-making and more deviations in the details.
Only Chen Xuan's plan seemed the most different.
No evacuation, no restraint, letting things take their own course, this so-called "plan" was more like surrender without struggling, which instantly made Liu Mei frown and snort coldly.
"Mystique."
Time is urgent now, but Liu Mei will not let go of anyone who treats people's lives as a joke after this.
“What’s the situation on the scene?”
"Report! Our group's sleepwalker has entered the residential complex. Based on their speed, they should be able to continue for… two minutes."
Two minutes was tight, but enough.
Liu Mei got out of the car, took out a pistol, with infrared detectors in her eyes and wearing a bulletproof vest, she rushed towards her destination, going in the opposite direction of the residents who were going downstream, and she was surrounded by confused and puzzled eyes.
Police officers swarmed in, lined up one by one, and headed towards Room 302. The door was open at this moment, and everyone squatted in the corner, quietly watching the sleepwalker in the room.
"Don't come in."
Liu Mei stopped the police officer's tentative questioning with her eyes, and then said this sentence with her eyes.
She is not a fool. There is only a sleepwalker in the room now. What if the invisible enemy chooses the police officer as his target?
Thermal sensors and infrared rays detect simultaneously, and all living things in the room will be detected.
Liu Mei frowned. With the help of the instrument, the sleepwalker's figure was very clear, but there was no other figure besides him.
Liu Mei put down the pistol slightly, took the iron rod and gently knocked the ground.
"Bang, bang, bang."
"Sun Chang, wake up, you are sleepwalking now, wake up."
Liu Meiru shouted, but Sun Chang didn't react at all. Despite such a big commotion, he stood there in a daze. He was motionless at first, but not long after, his arms began to move, writing randomly on the white paper. His whole body remained stiff, only his arms moved stiffly, and it was impossible to tell what he was writing. It looked like someone was grabbing his wrist and pulling him to write.
"Scratch, scratch, scratch."
The rustling sound of pen and paper echoed in the empty living room, accompanied by Liu Mei's soft call, which made people shudder.
Seeing that this was ineffective, Liu Mei stretched out the iron rod, and the joints of the iron rod were opened, and it became a long strip in an instant. Then, Liu Mei poked it hard.
“Wake up!”
This time, Sun Chang finally responded.
His eyes, which were not completely closed, narrowed slightly, and his face showed a painful struggle. His lips began to tremble, and his whole body began to shake.
He looked like he was about to wake up, but the movements of his hands accelerated even faster, as if the thing pulling him was pushing his hands, constantly writing!
"Uh-huh……"
A muffled groan came from Sun Chang's mouth, his eyes struggled to open, and his hands moved faster and faster.
Seeing this, Liu Mei no longer hesitated and fired a shot.
"Bang!"
A loud gunshot rang out, and the bullet passed through the air in front of Sun Chang, but hit nothing. It hit the vase on the counter directly and then embedded in the wall. Sun Chang woke up at the sound, looked around in horror, and gasped for breath.
"I...what am I doing?"
Sun Chang came to his senses and stared blankly at the policemen standing on high alert at the door, then looked at the pen and paper in his hands, unable to understand for a long time.
Only then did Liu Mei walk into the room. She took off the infrared device and said coldly:
"You have been diagnosed with an infectious disease. Come back with us for treatment."
When the team returned, everyone was a little confused and asked Liu Mei if the problem had been solved.
"That should be it."
What Liu Mei didn't say was that this place was indeed a bit weird.
Although she didn't see anything, based on her experience over the years, Sun Chang seemed to be being held hostage, so even though she didn't see anything, she still fired the shot.
But she didn't lie. Logically speaking, there was no target of infection in the room, so the effect of preventing the spread could be achieved anyway. The worst case scenario was that Sun Chang died.
But we won't know all this until three days later.
The task of project group one has been completed, and the tasks of other groups are also nearing completion.
Without exception, they chose to wake up the sleepwalker, thereby triggering the acceleration of the sleepwalker's writing time, but there were differences in the details.
During the execution, the fourth task force discovered that the target family had not heard the notice to evacuate, and the sleepwalker had already started drawing. When he was woken up, the sleepwalker accelerated his drawing. In the end, the person in charge chose to forcibly interrupt the sleepwalker's body with a gun.
But after being attacked, the sleepwalker did not interrupt his writing. He completed the painting at an extremely fast speed, then woke up and let out a miserable cry.
Task Force 5 also discovered that some people had not evacuated, but did not kill them after waking them up.
The execution process of Project Groups 2 and 3 is almost the same as that of Project Group 1.
Only the project team six that Chen Xuan is in charge of has not been completed.
At this moment, Chen Xuan saw Liu Yang walk into the room and knocked on the door.
"Hello, police officer."
Not long after, the door was opened and a woman stuck her head out. She looked at the police nervously, and then looked at Liu Yang who was sitting in the living room in horror.
"Hello, police officer."
The woman was a little confused and said in a trembling voice:
"What happened?"
Chen Xuan did not answer directly, but asked:
"Is there anyone else living in your house? Who else is there besides you?"
"Yes, and my son Haohao..."
"Mom, who is it?"
"Haohao, it's the police, wait for mom."
The woman paused and explained:
"We were about to go out to set up the stall in the evening, and then we found this man walking into our house... Do we need to ask Haohao to come out? We will cooperate with the investigation."
"No need for that yet. You need to think of a question first."
Chen Xuan looked at the woman with calm eyes and said quietly:
"Now, only you and your son will survive."
"Who are you going to choose?"
