Volume 3 The Chaotic Present Chapter 48 Finding the Man Behind the Scenes

Fang Qiuling ran through the empty corridor.

As he ran, he kept an eye on his surroundings. As soon as there are monitors and cameras in the hallway, immediately change the route and detour.

Although the mastermind behind the scenes is not very calm, Lily cheated him out with a simple sentence. He didn't seem to be very smart, and he didn't seem to be well-educated, but he could be heard "spitting fragrant" from several corridors, and the foul language never stopped from the beginning. But...... This guy has a strong sense of precaution, even if he can't help jumping out, but he just threw a puppet to come forward, and the body doesn't know where to hide.

The puppet that appeared at the window on the third floor had a dull gaze, it should not have "sight". His lips did not move at all when he spoke, his throat did not tremble in the slightest, and the voice was clearly not coming from his vocal organs. A useless false target, a puppet without the slightest value, for sure.

This guy wasn't observed through a puppet, how exactly did he know what was going on in the small clearing? Through his "cute" bug minions?

Fang Qiuling quickly thought about it for a while, and felt that it was unlikely.

Humans are mammals, insects are arthropods, and the difference between the two in terms of physiological structure is not a little bigger. Don't talk about the rest, just say that the eyes are good. Insects have compound eyes, and humans have a single eye, and there are great differences in both function and structure.

There are many spells that share the senses, and the second energy level in the list of standard spells is there. However, the objects that the caster uses to share their senses are squirrels, rabbits, snakes, and other small animals. Small animals can easily enter small areas that cannot be passed by humans, and then listen to hidden messages. But why is there almost no choice for smaller, more insidious insects?

On the one hand, the brain capacity of insects is so small that even if they directly command insects after sharing their senses, it is still difficult for insects to follow orders. On the other hand, because the physiological structure of insects is so different from that of humans, insects cannot understand the pictures and sounds they hear.

Excluding the bug option, the next most likely thing is a spell.

There are also many visual monitoring spells, but the casting requirements and difficulty are much higher than those of sensory sharing spells. The biggest problem is not so much in the casting requirements and difficulty, but in terms of consumption.

Elune is a high demon world, a world with a lot of "supreme" power in space, but I haven't heard of a spellcaster who will maintain a visual monitoring spell for an hour or two. It is rare to be able to last for a few minutes, at most ten minutes.

Spellcasters are more willing to monitor with spells in the form of traps such as magic sentry and magic alarms. If you need to trace something, there are many spells in the prophecy system that can help. There is no need to maintain a visual monitoring spell for a long time.

So the spell aspect is also unlikely.

Spells and bug minions are ruled out, what is the remaining possibility? It's impossible for this guy to be monitored with modern means...... Wait a minute, this one can really be there.

It's the 21st century, the information age, and things like cameras and monitors have become commonplace, and it's easy to get them. Moreover, the hospital itself has a monitoring system, and it is common to install a surveillance camera in the corridor and open space. Get the real-time situation of the scene through the monitor, it's scientific!

Taking advantage of the fact that this guy regarded Lily as an advent and began to talk nonsense, Fang Qiuling quietly began to observe the surroundings. As expected, the small clearing was watched by several surveillance cameras - it is definitely possible to observe from multiple angles and comprehensively.

With the initial guess, the next step is to verify. How to verify? It's as simple as making a threatening gesture in front of a surveillance camera. For example...... Let Satsuki take out a grenade and pop it out.

Of course, you can't take it out obviously, you have to block the view of the surveillance camera first, and pull it out where it can't shoot. If the person behind the scenes reacts, it means that he is not actually observing through surveillance cameras. Then it is necessary to reconsider whether it is possible for this guy to pass spells and bugs......

The first time, I didn't find it. But it just so happened that Lily had a quarrel with this guy at this time, don't be distracted and not pay attention. Try again.

Second ...... Still haven't seen it.

The third time, Xiao Yue was already openly holding the grenade in his hand, and this guy still didn't react. I guess I still haven't found it.

In the fourth blow, Fang Qiuling let go of most of his body, completely exposing Xiao Yue's hand holding the grenade to the surveillance camera.

“…… Alas, the two guys in the back actually took out the grenades. What do you two want to do? Looking at it means you want to up? Come on, throw it away. I'm just waiting! ”

- The cunning guy really took advantage of the hospital's surveillance system!

The situation of the target is roughly confirmed. Xiao Yue decisively threw out a familiar grenade to cover Fang Qiuling's departure from the scene.

Where does the footage from the monitor's camera go? Fang Qiuling's first thought was the surveillance computer in the security room. Is this guy hiding in the security room of the hospital?

- The security room, it should be at the entrance of the hospital, right?

After Fang Qiuling left the small clearing, he immediately went straight to the entrance gate.

There weren't many cameras installed in the corridors of the hospital, but they were installed in several major corridors, which caused a lot of trouble for Fang Qiuling's actions. After going around and making sure that the surveillance camera had sealed the corridor leading to the gate, Fang Qiuling silently took out a camouflage cloak from the storage bag and draped it on his body, and then used his stealth skills to calmly break through the blockade of the surveillance camera.

Boosters vs. Modern Science - Boosters Win!

The camouflage cloak bears some resemblance to the optical camouflage in sci-fi, which can effectively reduce the chance of detection. In addition, it passes slowly in a stealthy manner to minimize the amount of time it takes to be on camera. Fang Qiuling walked through multiple corridors one after another, and soon arrived at the gate of the hospital.

The gate of the hospital is also full of corpses at this moment, and the stumps of the zombies are severed, and the corpses are all over the place. If nothing else, it should be the hand of the rabbit-eared Loli who stayed outside.

A zombie from nowhere staggered out. It hesitated when it ran to the hospital gate, as if it had "smelled" the scent of flesh. But before it could decide whether to run out of the hospital to find the enemy as ordered, or turn around and search for flesh in the hospital, it burst open with a "bang" gunshot, and then fell to the ground.

The rabbit-eared lolias blocked the hospital gates with bullets and grenades. Don't let a zombie escape, or a zombie goes to the hospital.

Fang Qiuling noticed the blockade at the gate. Although you can use the communicator on your body to ask the rabbit-eared Loli not to shoot, and then walk over generously. But this is obviously not necessary.

The door of the communication room at the entrance of the hospital was open at this moment, and the glass window on the front was completely smashed, and it could be seen that it was empty. The security room is next to the communication room, and the four doors are also wide open, not only is it empty, but the display screen in the room is also turned off.

The mastermind behind the scenes was obviously not here, Fang Qiuling quickly glanced at it, and then turned around and ran.

It's no surprise that there is no one in the security room. Approaching the gate of the hospital and hearing the gunshots that rang out from time to time, Fang Qiuling knew that there was probably no one here. There is a saying that "black under the lamp", but it also depends on the specific "black" method. In a place where bullets are flying, "it is dark under the lamp", are you not afraid that stray bullets will suddenly fly over?

In addition to the security room, where else can I easily control the hospital's surveillance system? The answer, of course, is yes - the computer room of the hospital.

Most of the hospital's data pipelines are concentrated in the computer room, and the monitoring system of the hospital can also be controlled by hiding in the computer room. It is not surprising that the guy who can think of the use of the surveillance system must be familiar with computer technology, and even have some hacking skills. "Remote command" in the computer room is very possible.

However, where is the computer room in the hospital?

Fang Qiuling thought for a while, found a staircase down, and went straight to the basement floor.

There are a large number of electronic devices such as switches and servers in the computer room, and they also need to be temperature controlled. Taking into account all considerations, Fang Qiuling felt that it was a relatively good choice to place it on the underground floor. But whether it is specific or not, let's find it one room at a time.

Searching room by room can take a long time, but the hospital has only one basement floor and a simple layout, with only a straight corridor. It only took a while for Fang Qiuling to walk all over the ...... However, I didn't find the computer room, and I didn't find the mastermind behind the scenes.

Should be...... The mastermind behind the scenes dislikes the lighting and ventilation conditions on the underground floor?

Returning to the hospital lobby with a slight irritation, a piercing scream came into his ears. It is the direction of the small open space!

Fang Qiuling immediately responded to the prestige. Through the window of the hospital lobby, a stumbling figure of a man can be seen running out of the morgue, and Satsuki and Lily immediately stop him.

The man's arm was mottled with blood, and at first glance it was clear that he had been injured. And who is "beating" people everywhere in the hospital at the moment, besides Fang Qiuling, who is looking for the mastermind behind the scenes? So at this time, a guy who was beaten suddenly appeared, and he wanted to escape in a panic, does his identity still need to be said?

- This guy is really free! At this time, I still want to play tricks!

Fang Qiuling rolled her eyes angrily.

- Will Satsuki and Lily be fooled?

Fang Qiuling was not very worried about this. Satsuki is indeed inexperienced, but Lily is a paladin, and a paladin will be deceived by this little trick? Impossible!

Sure enough, the man's head suddenly exploded, and a moth crawled out of the back of the exploded head. With that comes a mental shock.

Although Fang Qiuling was a little far away, the belt was still affected. However, this moth obviously belonged to the "juvenile body", and the intensity of the mental impact was not high, Fang Qiuling only felt a little dizzy, and he didn't feel anything.

"Ahh I actually broke my beloved toy! I want you to pay for it! The exaggerated voice of the mastermind behind the scenes came to his ears, "Hehe, look what I found?" A lonely little girl. Screw her head off first, then hands and feet......"

- This guy has a bad brain. It can't be an escape from the Very Human Research Center, right?

With such terrifying words in a crisp children's voice, Fang Qiuling rolled her eyes again.

"Yo! I found it. Hehe, I've found your companions. Eh, no, it should be a male pet! Kill this guy first, and then play with you guys. I'll go first! ”

Before he could roll his eyes back, Fang Qiuling's face suddenly froze.

- Discovered? There are also cameras staring at this location?

Fang Qiuling immediately looked around the hospital hall.

There are undoubtedly cameras, and there are more than one, but now my position is definitely outside the blind spot of the camera. How did this guy find out?

"Yo, alas! Isn't this guy, isn't this guy the movie star who's been very popular lately! Looking at the Lisuo when he cut down the ghoul, I didn't expect this guy to really have some ability...... Hum! I hate that men are more handsome than me! Especially the stars! Hum! I've changed my mind, I'm going to catch this guy! Then love you well in front of him, and then kill him! ”

The voice was full of obscenity and obscenity, and people couldn't help but have the idea of beating up the owner of the voice.

"Get up! My little cutie, my slave! Hurry up! Possess them, ravage them! Then bring them to me and eat them bit by bit! ”

There are a few more middle two in the obscene voice. And under such a declaration, the zombies that had already fallen around began to move. Their skulls exploded, revealing silkworms hiding within, with sharp hooked claws.

In a moment, the silkworms spread their wings, including not only the inverted triangular moth wings of moths, but also the butterfly wings of butterflies, and thin feathers as slender as dragonfly wings.

This scene is honestly not unfamiliar. Because when I used to play "Resident Evil" to fight zombies, there were similar scenes in the game. Seeing such a monster in the game will make you feel disgusting and you can't help but educate it with large-caliber firearms. But to see a scene in this world, it is not just disgusting, but terrifying.

Fang Qiuling felt that his cold hair stood up.

And just when he felt uncomfortable and wanted to do something, there was a sudden throbbing in his heart, and an undisguised sense of snooping came from the front. There is a deep malice and cruelty in the snooping, and it is the idea of wanting to dismantle people and put on various "artistic shapes".

Fang Qiuling's eyes froze, and he immediately looked ahead.

Directly in front of it is a large window with the door opening outward. Through the window, you can see Satsuki in the small clearing holding a shotgun and shooting, and Lily is chanting spells...... There were no other figures, and there were no particularly strange bugs or targets to target.

But the throbbing in my heart unmistakably pointed in this direction. And the deep malice and cruelty brought by that sense of prying have never disappeared.
