Card Room - 290. Chapter 415-416

[Chapter 415, Assassin’s Advice]

When Ye Qi took a shower and went out, he found a ray of warm light in the study on the second floor. He dried his hair and walked over. He saw Shao Qingge sitting at the desk, looking at the information in Guangnao, and the look on his face. Very serious.

In Ye Qi’s impression, Shao Qingge is always not serious, he likes to squint and tease others. He has a “cynic” rich second-generation appearance. He rarely sees such a serious expression on Shao Qingge’s face. Maybe Mr. Shao at work is like this too? A serious man looks more pleasing to the eye.

Ye Qi walked into the room and asked softly, “Mr. Shao, did you find any clues?”

The next moment, the seriousness on Shao Qingge’s face disappeared, replaced by a familiar smile, raised his eyebrows and looked at Ye Qi: “What do you call me?”

Ye Qi was stunned: “Mr. Shao?”

Shao Qingge stood up, walked three or two steps away from his long legs to Ye Qi, stretched out his slender fingers to lift the boy’s chin, and slightly squinted his eyes: “Think about it, what should you call me?”

Ye Qi recovered, his ears were a little red: “Dad?”

Shao Qingge chuckled, “Finally remember, I am your adoptive father?”

The red color of Ye Qi’s ear roots spread rapidly, and even his cheeks began to flush, and he whispered: “There is no need to care about the name in private? This is all arranged by the gatekeeper. Calling your dad, I always feel weird…”

He thought Shao Qingge was joking, but the man suddenly squeezed Ye Qi’s jaw, squinted his eyes, and wandered thoughtfully on Ye Qi’s facial features. The “scrutinizing” gaze made Ye Qi’s heart beat. Accelerating, the two were too close, and he could almost feel Shao Qingge’s warm breath.

Ye Qi’s tongue knotted uncontrollably: “You, look at what I do, is there anything on my face…”

Shao Qingge’s voice was low and deep: “The gatekeepers make no arrangements? No, they never arrange identities at will. Why am I your father?”

Ye Qi’s brain was in a mess, and he blurted out: “Didn’t you adopt me?”

Shao Qingge still stared at Ye Qi’s face: “Why should I adopt you?”

Ye Qi: “…”

He was troubled by Shao Qingge’s serial problem, but suddenly a thought flashed in Ye Qi’s mind. He stared at Shao Qingge with wide eyes: “Could it be that my life experience is not simple?”

Shao Qingge finally let go of Ye Qi’s chin. He wrapped his hands around his chest, pacing back and forth in the study, and whispered, “According to my memory, I adopted it when I went to the orphanage for charity more than ten years ago. You, you were only five years old at the time, and your parents died in the frontline battle… Did they really sacrifice?”

Ye Qi’s heart became more and more disturbed: “What on earth are you trying to say?”

Shao Qingge stopped and looked back at Ye Qi: “I am the only heir to the Shao family. I am young and unmarried. Will I adopt a five-year-old child inexplicably? Unless you have a special status, I will adopt you. ”

He flipped the LCD screen of the optical brain to Ye Qi, and said, “When I checked the investment records of the Shao family over the years, I found that the Noah’s Ark Project 20 years ago was not the first genetic study, but rather ‘ “Planning to restart” means that the first research is far ahead of our expectations. I saw a person named Ye in the signature list of this proposal, and checked it easily… He looks like you Very similar.”

Ye Qi looked at the photo transferred from Guangmin and was dumbfounded: “Am I also a copycat?”

“The time is not right, and you just look similar to him, not like Xiao Lou and the duplicator are completely indistinguishable.” Shao Qingge paused and looked at Ye Qi, “This person named Ye Wenbo, should It’s your biological father. I checked his information. He was a senior officer in the Southern Military District.”

Ye Qi said in a puzzled manner: “But, didn’t my father sacrifice on the front line?”

A gleam of sharpness flashed in Shao Qingge’s eyes: “It may also be sacrificed by’being’.”

There is an essential difference between “sacrifice” and “sacrifice”. The former is accidental and the latter is artificial.

Ye Qi didn’t feel much about the man in the photo. He was sent to an orphanage when he was very young, and was adopted by Shao Qingge when he was five years old. Only Shao Qingge has the closest relationship with him in this world. He has no memory of his biological father and mother.

But since Shao Qingge found the name of Ye Qi’s biological father in the plan twenty years ago, it proves that Ye Qi’s father also participated in this plan. His death may not be a simple sacrifice.

Reflecting this, Ye Qi immediately said: “This important clue, we must tell Professor Xiao as soon as possible.”

Shao Qingge said: “Well, I have sent a message to Team Yu. We will go to the bank early tomorrow morning and open the safe left by my father.”

…

At this time, inside the palace.

Xiao Lou’s neck was pinched with his hands, but the expression on his face was calm.

Logically speaking, most people were pinched their necks and there was a gun behind them. They would definitely be panicked and afraid… But Xiao Lou didn’t react with any excitement except that his back was slightly stiffened for two seconds at the beginning.

His face was calm as usual, and he didn’t even have the slightest disturbance in his breathing.

Xiao Lou stood there steadily, without frowning.

The assassin sensed his calmness and couldn’t help but said coldly: “His Royal Highness is not afraid that I will kill you?”

Xiao Lou chuckles: “Will you?”

The cold fingers that pinched his neck tightened slightly, Xiao Lou’s breathing became more and more difficult, but he still did not feel a little flustered. As a result, he and Yu Hanjiang were connected with each other, and Yu Hanjiang was waiting for an opportunity in the bathroom next to him. He believed This man would definitely not let him die at the hands of an assassin; secondly, he didn’t think that the assassin would kill him immediately.

Xiao Lou said calmly: “You have been hiding in my bedroom for a long time? I don’t know what special power you used to hide your figure. I have no awareness of your existence. You have a gun in your hand. If you are Come to kill me, you have countless opportunities to attack me and kill me with one shot. Instead of waiting for Yu Hanjiang to enter the bathroom, then suddenly come out and attack me.”

Xiao Lou stood still on the spot, and his voice did not waver at all: “Just now, if you wanted to kill me, when you put a gun against my back, gently pull the trigger, I am already a corpse. But, You didn’t do it. That means that I am alive and still have some value to you, right?”

The assassin was taken aback for a moment, and then said dumbly: “You are indeed smart.”

Xiao Lou asked: “Who sent you here? What do you want to do?”

As the assassin was about to speak, suddenly, a gust of wind hit the back of his head. Before he could react, there was a sharp pain in his arm-a click, that was the sound of the wrist bone being broken abruptly!

Yu Hanjiang’s eyes were full of hostility, and he didn’t know when, he had quietly walked around behind the assassin.

The man’s action is simple and fast, as fast as lightning!

A swift grip, the assassin’s wrist controlling Xiao Lou was captured with incomparable precision, and when he twisted it in the opposite direction, his wrist bone was directly broken by a strong force.

The other hand sticks out like lightning, and quickly grabs the gun in the assassin’s hand. At the same time, his right foot kicks the opponent’s fragile popliteal, kicks the opponent to the ground with one foot, and folds his hands behind his back to control Live, □□ touch the other person’s head.

Yu Hanjiang’s voice was low and dangerous: “Don’t move.”

Xiao Lou noticed a loosening of his neck, and immediately came behind Yu Hanjiang.

He knew that Yu Hanjiang would come to rescue him, so he deliberately chatted with the assassin to delay time.

Yu Hanjiang deserves to have received professional training. Although the assassin’s body is invisible, the cold fingers felt by Xiao Lou’s neck and the gun against the back of his waist clearly reveal the assassin’s location at the time.

The assassin was obviously underestimating the enemy. When Yu Hanjiang held the gun to his head, his body stiffened slightly. Yu Hanjiang sent the gun in his right hand forward, and continued fierce force with his left hand. A heart-wrenching burst came from the assassin’s broken wrist. The pain, like the skin and the flesh being separated abruptly!

He gritted his teeth without screaming, a bit of his teeth was almost crushed.

Yu Hanjiang’s voice was cold: “Who sent you here? Didn’t you hear His Highness asking you something?”

Although the assassin couldn’t see his body after he was invisible, the black barrel of the gun behind Xiao Lou positioned the assassin’s hand. In fact, there is another exit from Xiao Lou’s bathroom. In cooperation with Xiao Lou, Yu Hanjiang lurked over to subdue the assassin.

It only takes him three seconds to subdue a person.

So fast that the assassin had no time to react.

The assassin sneered: “No wonder the old emperor wants to entrust his Royal Highness to you for protection, Captain Yu is really good at it, and I can be caught by you even if I am invisible.”

Yu Hanjiang frowned: “Don’t talk nonsense. Who sent you here? I don’t want to ask the third time.”

The assassin said: “The master asked me to bring a few words to His Highness.”

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang looked at each other, and Xiao Lou said, “Say, I’ll listen.”

The assassin’s mouth let out a low laugh: “The master said, when necessary, please protect your Highness and leave the Capital Star as soon as possible-remember, the winner is the one who can live to the end.”

As soon as the voice fell, Yu Hanjiang felt that his hand suddenly loosened.

The arm that was tightly controlled just now, the touch is obviously a human arm, but at this time, the arms suddenly seemed to have no flesh and blood, and they separated from his hands, and it felt like they were caught… slippery. loach?

Yu Hanjiang was stunned and wanted to chase him, but found a black shadow turned out of the window in an instant, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Silence regained in the house.

Yu Hanjiang frowned and stared at his hands. Human arms have bones and flesh and blood, but when the man deformed just now, did he look like a cartilage creature?

Xiao Lou worried and said, “Who is he? Who is his so-called master?”

Yu Hanjiang was silent for a moment: “If he were a hunter, he would have dealt with us a long time ago. Perhaps, he was sent to you by a force in this world to warn you…Also, he should not be a human being.”

Xiao Lou looked at Yu Hanjiang suspiciously, “Isn’t it a human?”

Yu Hanjiang thoughtfully: “There should be alien creatures in the secret room with interstellar background? So, the invisibility of this assassin may not come from the card, but from the talent of this alien creature? When he just ran away , My hand is like touching a slippery loach.”

Xiao Lou’s scalp tingled: “Alien creatures…like the Zerg we met in the 8 of Spades?”

At this moment, several messages popped up on Yu Hanjiang’s mobile phone.

The first two were sent by Lu Jiuchuan: “Xiao Tang’s legs have been cured, and his toes have grown out. Brother is so happy that he can’t sleep at all tonight. Thank you, I won’t say much. I will write it down!”

“By the way, when Ye Qi used the Insect King Card to treat Xiao Tang just now, Xiao Tang and I thought of some clips at the same time. We must have seen the Zerg in this world. I decided to go to the Hilt no man’s land to investigate, but the military department I will definitely not approve my application here. I am currently the commander of the Arrow Legion and cannot leave the Capital Star casually. I will discuss what to do tomorrow.”

Later it was issued by Shao Qingge: “The investment records from 20 years ago have been found. This is a photo of the plan with the signatures of some people. These people have participated in the Noah’s Ark restart plan that year and need to be checked. What puzzles me is that Ye Bowen is probably Ye Qi’s biological father. I suspect that his death was not easy. Ye Qi’s orphan status was not set by the gatekeeper at will, but an important clue.”

“My father left me a ring and he can open the Shao’s house and store it in the safe in the bank. I will go to the bank to retrieve the safe tomorrow morning. I will tell you if I have clues.”

In the end, it was sent by Qu Wanyue: “Ms. Lin is still in contact here. I have already asked her to have afternoon tea tomorrow and talk about dance-related matters. After the afternoon tea, I will use the chameleon card to track and sneak into her home. , And report any progress at any time.”

The teammates are working hard, and Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou are very pleased.

It’s just that Xiao Lou’s heart is still a little uneasy, Liu Qiao and the four have not been whereabouts so far, where are they?

******

[Chapter 416, Noah’s Ark Project]

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang carefully sorted out the current clues. The bright line is Lin Yan, the fiancee of the prince, and her mother, Ms. Zhang Shaohua, the dean of the Academy of Sciences, confirmed to participate in the Noah’s Ark Project.

There are many hidden lines, such as the origin of the assassin, and the identity and purpose of his so-called “master”; the lost memories of Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci; the life experience of Ye Qi; and a copy of the same person in the palace as Xiaolou. These clues will be more troublesome to investigate and need to be sorted out as soon as possible.

The whereabouts of the four teammates must also be confirmed as soon as possible. Xiao Lou believes that the four Liu Qiao will not disappear inexplicably. Perhaps when everyone meets, the clues of this secret room will be clearer.

Seeing that it was late, Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang went to bed to rest.

In order to prevent the assassins from sneaking into the Gemini again, Yu Hanjiang guarded Xiao Lou in his arms vigilantly, and at the same time let the smart mecha Linghu turn on the all-round monitoring of Gemini again.

This night, everyone did not sleep well.

When Lu Jiuchuan woke up the next morning, he found that Tang Ci was standing in the living room, leaning on the wall and walking forward slowly. His legs were not flexible enough, like a child learning to walk, limping. Turn, awkward posture…

But his eyes are especially bright.

The warm morning light shines on his pale face, his forehead is covered with fine beads of sweat, but he walks earnestly and firmly in every step. Lu Jiuchuan hasn’t seen such a glamorous Tang Ci for a long, long time. Although there was no expression on his face, Lu Jiuchuan knew that Tang Ci was very happy to stand up again.

Lu Jiuchuan’s heart softened, and he hurried over to help him, but was interrupted softly by Tang Ci, “Don’t help me.”

“Well, go by yourself.” Lu Jiuchuan smiled and watched him practice walking. “Do you still adapt to the new leg?”

“Well, it’s very easy to use, I’m getting used to it.” Tang Ci wiped the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand, and stopped tired. The next moment, Lu Jiuchuan suddenly picked him up and turned to the living room.

Tang Ci said unhappily, “What are you doing…”

Before he finished speaking, he listened to Lu Jiuchuan with a chuckle and said, “Did you forget that you should wear shoes when you have your feet?”

Tang Ci looked down and saw that he was walking barefoot in the living room.

I haven’t worn shoes for a long time, and there are no suitable shoes around, but I forgot this detail. The white toes have been touching the cold floor, red from the cold, as if protesting against the master’s carelessness towards these feet. Lu Jiuchuan hugged him to the living room, found him a pair of slippers, and put them on his feet personally: “I will buy you a pair of shoes later, and put on slippers first.”

Tang Ci ignored the strange feeling of touching the man’s warm palms with his toes, and said softly, “Brother Nine.”

Lu Jiuchuan looked up at him: “Huh?”

Tang Ci hesitated for a moment before he said: “I had a nightmare last night. I dreamed of fragments. I’m not sure if it was a dream or a lost memory…”

Lu Jiuchuan immediately became serious: “Tell me, what did you dream of?”

Tang Ci said: “I dreamed that we were attacked in Hilt no man’s land. It was a strange alien creature that attacked us. They have high-tech smart armor and seem to have invisibility?”

Lu Jiuchuan frowned: “Invisibility? Is it related to the assassin who sneaked into the uterus in Qu Wanyue’s mouth?”

Tang Ci said: “Because it is a dreamland, I can’t determine whether it is a flash of memory. I think we have to set off as soon as possible and go to Hilt no man’s land. Only when we go there, the puzzle will be solved.”

Lu Jiuchuan also agreed with this point: “I asked Hanjiang and Xiaolou to meet and discuss.”

***

At the same time, Shao Qingge and Ye Qi went to the Royal Bank, the largest capital city, after having breakfast.

My father left a safe here.

Shao Qingge didn’t know what was stored in it. He went to the bank’s VIP account manager and showed his tokens, saying that he would open the safe. After checking his identity, the manager took him to the top of the bank. .

Shao Qingge followed the manager to the safe left by his father.

Ye Qi widened his eyes and looked at the safe curiously. The cabinet is nearly one and a half meters high. There is a password sensing area right in front of the silver-white metal safe. Shao Qingge uses fingerprint verification to unlock the first password, and then put the ring left by his father on After the induction zone, unlock the second password.

A line of “Password Matched Successfully” pops up on the screen.

The next moment, there was a “pop” in my ear, and the silver metal cabinet slowly opened in front of my eyes…

Then Ye Qi and Shao Qingge froze at the same time.

The cabinet is full of money.

Rows of red banknotes are placed in the cabinet. Ye Qi’s first time seeing so much cash since he was young, he can use them to build a wall!

The manager smiled and said, “Mr. Shao, do you want to take the safe with you?”

Shao Qingge was helpless to help his forehead.

His local tyrant father is so simple and rude, he actually left him a chest of cash!

But the last thing he needs is cash. He is now in charge of Noah Medical Technology Company, and his monthly profit is enough for the whole group to live without worry for decades; even if he has no money in this world, the gold coins they earned before are converted into star coins. After that, you can definitely have no worries about food and clothing.

It’s better to leave some clues if you leave a locker of money.

A trace of disappointment flashed in Shao Qingge’s eyes.

The manager felt that Mr. Shao was indeed rich and self-willed, and he was disappointed when he saw a cabinet of money?

Shao Qingge looked at Ye Qi: “Take it back? Or save it directly in Kali?”

Ye Qi thought to himself, don’t want so much cash for nothing, but always feels that it’s not right to deposit it in the card. He carefully observed the cabinet. Although the cash was placed neatly,… is there a piece missing in each row?

At first glance, it’s okay, but it’s not right after thinking about it.

Shao Qingge’s father is a celebrity on the rich list of the empire. If he really wants to leave a chest of cash to his son, how could he not fill the chest? Is he short of that money? Since there is no shortage, why are there vacancies in each row?

Ye Qi tried to count from left to right.

If you take a bundle of money (100,000 stars) as a unit of numbers, the first line is missing 2, the second line is 9… the third line is 7, the fourth line is 5… and the following is 0, 7, 1, 5.

There are a total of eight rows in the cabinet, and each row lacks a wad of money.

Ye Qi connected the series of numbers in his heart.

29750715? Eight digits, is the password? Or… the date?

If it’s a date, it’s July 15, 2975 in the ephemeris?

Today is July 16, 3000 in the ephemeris, and Xiao Lou had his 25th birthday yesterday, that is, on July 15, so Xiao Lou’s date of birth is exactly July 15, 2975 in the ephemeris!

This discovery made Ye Qi’s heart beat violently.

He didn’t think it would be a coincidence.

Since Ye Qi and Shao Qingge were connected when they went out, Ye Qi immediately told Shao Qingge of this discovery. Shao Qingge originally reached out to touch the star coin in the cabinet, but stopped abruptly.

This money…not just the money left to him by his father.

It’s a password!

Some passwords involving important clues!

Fortunately, Xiaoye is smart and cautious enough. If they destroy the arrangement of the coins in the cabinet and see the money open and deposit the cash directly into the bank card, they will lose the most important clue.

Shao Qingge narrowed his eyes, looked at the customer manager beside him, smiled and asked, “Can I move the entire box?”

The manager nodded: “Of course, Mr. Shao bought this safe. After confirming the identity and signing, you can move it away at any time.”

Shao Qingge nodded and signed the confirmation contract.

The cabinet is very large. In order not to damage the arrangement of the stars in the cabinet, Ye Qi took advantage of the people around to not pay attention, and directly used the teleport card to bring the cabinet into the floating car. He frightened and said: “July 15, 2975 is Xiao On Lou’s birthday, it’s no coincidence that your father used coins in the safe to show this number!”

Shao Qingge frowned slightly: “I found out that 20 years ago, the company invested 3 billion stars in the’Noah’s Ark Restart Plan’, and the date left by his father was 25 years ago… Will it be Ephemeris 2975? On July 15, 2015, the day Xiao Lou was born, the Noah’s Ark plan was launched for the first time? And 20 years ago, when Xiao Lou was 5 years old, the plan was restarted?”

Ye Qi thought about it carefully and nodded in agreement: “It makes sense! Restart, it must have been started once before. If it was started for the first time 25 years ago, and started for the second time 20 years ago, it would have been with Professor Xiao both before and after. Relevance! The first time was the day he was born, and the second time was the year when he was seriously injured and lost his memory?”

The two looked at each other and immediately informed Xiao Lou of the important news.

Yu Hanjiang looked at the message that popped up on the phone and immediately said, “Xiao Lou, we must make a decision.”

After a day, the two people’s hearts were interrupted. After all, this channel can only be maintained for 24 hours, and the new card cannot be used in the palace, but Xiao Lou understood his meaning from Yu Hanjiang’s eyes: “Do you want to leave the palace to investigate? ”

Yu Hanjiang nodded: “Let’s find an excuse to go out of the palace and let Brother Jiu lead the Arrow Army to protect you. Only in this way can we transfer the whole group, find out the truth of the year as soon as possible, and find a way to join Liu Qiao and the others.”

Staying in the palace makes no progress, and can only wait to die.

It is better to break the boat, flee the place where cards are prohibited, and conduct a comprehensive investigation from the outside.
