Tu tu tu tu …

The fire from the a.s.sault rifle responded to Dan’s order.

Feng bujue pulled the trigger as he rolled toward Dr. Jonathan.

“Idiot, who would surrender without putting up a fight!” Not only did brother Jue resist with his actions, but he also did not stop with his words.”If you have the time to shout, just shoot!”

Before he finished his sentence, he had already rushed to Dr. Jonathan’s side and held the latter in front of him.

“b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Quickly let go of the doctor!” Dan and the other security guards aimed their guns at them, but they couldn’t take the risk of killing the hostages.

After all, Dr. Jonathan was a level four researcher and an important a.s.set of the foundation. Without a clear order from the higher-ups, these security guards had no right to shoot him.

“That’s nonsense again. Dan. ” Feng bujue had already recognized Dan’s voice. He mocked,”if I’m going to do as you say, why would I even come here to take a hostage?”

Then, brother Jue turned to look at Johnathan and said in a low voice,””Doctor, for the safety of your colleagues and yourself, please cooperate with me, understand?”

Professor Jonathan had one arm around Billy, and his other shoulder was held tightly by brother Jue. He knew very little about the cla.s.s D member behind him. However, from what he had seen and heard during this period of time … This person was undoubtedly a Desperado who killed without blinking.

“Okay … Okay …” Johnathan replied in a trembling voice,”please don’t …”

“…Don’t make requests of me. ” Feng bujue cut him off.”I say, you do it.”

He gave clear instructions in an unquestionable tone, and his att.i.tude revealed unparalleled confidence and calmness. At that moment, including dan, everyone’s subconscious had acknowledged that brother Jue was the one in control of the situation.

Therefore, after a brief confrontation, the security team watched as Feng bujue used the ‘human s.h.i.+eld’ to retreat back into the emergency exit.

For this type of pa.s.sageway that was only used by Level 5 and O5 personnel, two conditions had to be met to enter and exit … One, you had to know the location of the secret door; Second, you must have a pa.s.s of the corresponding level.

Since Feng bujue was holding the only level five access card in the base (normally, there would be other level five or O5 members moving around, but on this day, the base only had one level five member, Cozmo), after he retreated into the tunnel, the security guards were once again forced into a pa.s.sive position.

“Sir, this is Lab B3. Austin has escaped into the tunnel again.” Dan watched as the tunnel entrance closed, and could only helplessly report.

“d.a.m.n it …” Steven, who was in B7, cursed angrily.”I’m still one step too late …”

As the temporary commander of the base, his response was actually very good. After receiving Gore’s report, Steven had immediately guessed how brother Jue had escaped. Although he didn’t want to believe that his respected officer Kozmo would reveal information about the emergency exit (which even Steven didn’t know), he still calmly a.n.a.lyzed the various possibilities and made the right judgment.

On the basis of this deduction, Steven immediately recalled that Austin had mentioned Dr. Jonathan and the puppet Billy before, and he seemed to know where the two were. First, this confirmed the fact that “officer Kozmo had already confessed.” Second, the other party’s primary purpose didn’t seem to be to escape, but the puppet and the doctor. Of course, they could not rule out the possibility that it was just a smoke bomb released by the other party before they escaped to lure the Tiger away from the mountain.

With this in mind, Steven immediately ordered the team closest to B3 to rush over … Even if this was really a diversion, they had to be on guard.

However, in the end, brother Jue still succeeded.

…………

Three minutes later, in the emergency exit.

“Listen to me, Mr. Austin.” Johnathan walked in front of the gun with the puppet in his arms.”If you want to escape with this puppet, I will never stop you. I’m just a researcher. I don’t intend to …”

“That’s enough …” Feng bujue did not want to hear that, so he cut in with an impatient tone.”Stop wasting your breath, doctor. I’ll decide when I’ll let you go. I’m still holding you hostage, which means you’re still useful, so … Please shut your mouth and speak when I need you to, so that you don’t make me angry, understand?”

The more he spoke, the more he sounded like a professional criminal who “ate and cooked for no reason”. Jonathan did not want to deal with such a person. He did not have the courage or the ability, so he decided …”Okay, I understand …”

As they spoke, they had already arrived at the exit of a secret door.

Feng bujue looked at the sign next to the door and used the access card to open the door.

“Please walk in front, doctor.” Brother Jue stood next to the opened door and turned to point his gun at Jonathan.

Jonathan swallowed his saliva and walked through the secret door with uneasy steps.

Brother Jue followed closely behind and walked out of the tunnel.

“Please open that safe, doctor.” Feng bujue ordered the moment he entered the room.

At that moment, they were in the room that brother Jue and Billy had been to earlier. It was the room that stored SCP-1998.

Dr. Jonathan naturally knew this room, because he was the key keeper of the project in the room.

“You …” The doctor wanted to ask brother Jue what he was going to do with this thing, but he thought about it and swallowed the question.

As someone who had received higher education and had a high IQ, no matter how low his emotional intelligence was, he should have guessed brother Jue’s intentions. Obviously, the act of kidnapping him to open the safe itself explained at least three things: First, he knew the purpose of this project. Second, he also knew who had the key to this project. Third, he knew what he was going to do with this project.

“Doctor.” Just as Johnathan stood before the safe and was about to take out the key, Feng bujue suddenly said in a cold tone,”if I were you, I would not do that.”

This sentence seemed to have no beginning or end, but it made Jonathan freeze in place. The blood in his body seemed to have frozen, and a chill went straight to his heart.

Only Johnathan himself knew that … Two seconds ago, when his hand touched the key, an idea flashed through his mind.

However, just as he was hesitating whether he should turn it into action, Feng bujue’s words entered his ears.
