Chapter 505: Absolute Instructions That Work Everywhere
As the night deepened, the chirping of insects in the forest became sparser.
Chen Duo followed behind Clarinet, walking very slowly.
The restraints on his wrists glowed coldly in the moonlight.
Zhang Chulan walked beside her and wanted to speak several times, but didn't know what to say.
Feng Baobao still looked at Chen Duo curiously, and seemed to be very interested in the restraints in her hands.
After walking for a long time, Chen Duo suddenly stopped.
He spoke softly, addressing Su Chen who was behind him.
"Su Chen."
Su Chen stopped and looked at her with calm eyes, waiting for her next words.
The other people also stopped and their eyes fell on Chen Duo.
"Can I...see Uncle Liao again?"
Chen Duo's voice was very soft, with a hint of hesitation, but also revealed an unspeakable expectation.
Uncle Liao?
Are you referring to Liao Zhong?
Su Chen was slightly stunned, then he understood what Chen Duo meant.
She wanted to see Liao Zhong again before being taken back to the company.
This request is not excessive.
Su Chen thought about it for a moment, nodded, and agreed:
"can."
When Chen Duo heard this, a hint of gratitude flashed across her calm face.
It quickly disappeared again and everything returned to peace.
"Thank you."
She said softly, her voice still small but with a hint of sincerity.
Zhang Chulan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Chen Duo to make such a request.
I didn't expect Su Chen to agree so readily.
He originally thought that given the importance the company attached to Chen Duo,
And considering her current identity, they will take her back to the company immediately without any further complications.
Wang Zhenqiu whistled, and his cynical smile returned to his face:
"Oh, you are quite sentimental. I thought you were a sentimentless Gu child."
Xiao Zizai pushed his glasses and smiled gently:
"It's human nature, it's human nature. Even a holy child with a Gu body has feelings."
Black Tube frowned and glanced at Su Chen.
He seemed a little disapproving of Su Chen agreeing to Chen Duo's request so easily, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Su Chen ignored what others said, looked at Chen Duo again, and said calmly:
"I will arrange for you to meet Liao Zhong, but it won't take too long."
Chen Duo nodded to show that she understood.
She lowered her head again, remained silent, and continued to follow the team forward.
Su Chen walked at the end of the team, his eyes fell on Chen Duo's thin back, his thoughts surging in his heart.
He could understand Chen Duo's feelings, and could also feel the fragility and desire hidden beneath her calm appearance.
Chen Duo's performance was indeed beyond his expectations.
He originally thought that even if Chen Duo did not resist, she would still show some resistance or dissatisfaction.
But she was unusually obedient and cooperative, as if she had already anticipated her own outcome and accepted it calmly.
This kind of calmness made Su Chen feel a little uneasy.
A holy child who should have been unruly and possessed great power gave up resistance so easily.
There may be deeper reasons hidden behind this.
Su Chen didn't think Chen Duo should just accept her fate.
She has unique abilities and unlimited potential.
Her life should have had more possibilities instead of being used as a tool by the company and eventually becoming a victim.
Once Chen Duo is brought back to the company, what awaits her will definitely not be a fair trial.
But more cruel experiments and exploitation, even...destruction!
This is the company's usual method of dealing with those powerful outsiders who betray the company.
Kill the chicken to scare the monkey and serve as a warning to others.
As Chen Duo's former guardian, Liao Zhong
They will inevitably be implicated and face corresponding punishment.
Maybe they will be demoted or transferred out of the core department.
It may even be cleared out directly.
Thinking of this, Su Chen frowned slightly.
He vaguely felt that he seemed to be drawn into a larger vortex.
The Biyou Village incident and the Chen Duo incident seem to be two independent events.
But behind it, there seems to be some deeper connection hidden.
He needed to do something to prevent Chen Duo from being swallowed up by the company.
We also cannot let Liao Zhong be implicated because of Chen Duo.
He secretly made a new plan in his mind, a plan to turn the situation around.
This plan may be risky and may face huge resistance.
But for Chen Duo, for Liao Zhong, and for those who should not be sacrificed,
He had to try it.
Just then, a rapid electronic prompt sound broke the silence in the forest.
The sound came from the special communicator in Clarinet's pocket.
Hei Guan'er's expression froze, and he quickly took out his communicator and looked down to check.
With just one glance, his rough face instantly became extremely solemn.
His brows were tightly furrowed, and his eyes became sharper.
"What's wrong, Brother Guaner?"
Wang Zhenqiu was the first to notice something was wrong and came closer to ask.
Others also looked at the clarinet, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Black Tube raised his head, glanced at everyone, and finally landed on Su Chen.
The voice was as low as the cold wind in the forest:
"It's the latest instruction from headquarters."
He paused, and read out the following sentence by sentence:
"The target Chen Duo has been found. Due to its dangerousness and uncontrollability,
If there is resistance, execution is allowed on the spot.
Hidden dangers must be eliminated and no mistakes can be made.”
"what?!"
Zhang Chulan was the first to scream out, the color drained from his face in an instant, filled with shock and anger.
"Executed on the spot?! For what?
She didn’t resist at all!”
The smile on Wang Zhenqiu's face completely disappeared. He tutted his tongue, his tone full of undisguised sarcasm:
"Wow, this is really the company's style, so straightforward and ruthless."
The smile on Xiao Zizai's face froze for a moment, then returned to its gentle state.
But a hint of blood flashed across the eyes behind the lenses, so fast that it was impossible to catch.
He adjusted his glasses and said softly:
"Oh? An execution order?
It's really... not polite at all.
However, the premise is resistance. She is cooperating now, isn't she?"
Wang Ye frowned deeply and looked at Zhuge Qing beside him. They both saw solemnity and a hint of understanding in each other's eyes.
They were not surprised by the company's approach, but the order came so quickly and decisively.
Feng Baobao blinked, looked at Zhang Chulan who looked grim, and then looked at Clarinet who looked expressionless.
Finally, he looked at Chen Duo, as if he understood the meaning of execution.
Lao Meng was standing at the edge of the crowd. When he heard the order, his body trembled slightly.
His face became paler and his eyes were filled with fear and powerlessness.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Chen Duo.
To everyone's surprise.
Chen Duo slowly raised her head and met the complicated gazes of the crowd.
The corners of her mouth, which had been calm and almost numb, slowly curved upwards.
A smile appeared.
That smile was very shallow, very faint,
With an indescribable meaning.
It's not joy, it's not relief, it's more like a...
Finally, I waited for the expected ending.
With a hint of cold, all-seeing sadness.
