Chapter 143

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

A group of Guard Regiment armed personnel got off the bus and followed the blonde woman quickly. This attracted the gazes of many survivor convoys at the airport toward this side.

The blonde woman swept her gaze indifferently over Lin Xian and the others, then her gaze fell on Ding Junyi, who was wearing a scientific research suit. She walked directly in front of her, took out a mobile terminal, checked the character photos, and said coldly:

"I am Taylor Moreno, the Federal District Supervisor and the leader of this special investigation team. Was it you who initiated contact with us just now?"

This woman had the tone of a superior, her expression arrogant. At this moment, she didn't put Lin Xian and Shi Diyuan and others in her eyes at all, her gaze was on Ding Junyi from beginning to end.

"It was me." Ding Junyi replied.

Taylor swept her gaze over the group and said, "According to what you said, you have 3 personnel from the Biological Research Department who escaped from Underground City No. 9. Where are they?"

At this time, Zhao Yan and Xu Wen on the train saw the appearance of the Federal Investigation Team and hurriedly rushed off the train with their computer bags.

"Me me me! It's us!"

Before Ding Junyi could speak, Zhao Yan and Xu Wen ran off the train impatiently and introduced themselves to Taylor: "I am Zhao Yan, a Ph. D. in molecular biology from the Biological Research Department of Underground City No. 9."

"Xu Wen, Ph. D. in biochemistry from the Biological Research Department of Underground City No. 9, and also a formal employee of the Federal Government!" Xu Wen also said hurriedly.

Although the senior management of Underground City No. 9 abandoned them without hesitation when they evacuated, seeing the people from the Federal Investigation Team again, Zhao Yan and Xu Wen still felt an indescribable excitement.

The other party came specifically, which shows that they, as scientific research talents, still have a certain importance to the Federal organization.

Taylor looked at the three researchers with a scrutinizing gaze. "The flight investigation team we sent to Underground City No. 9 yesterday has been out of contact for more than 11 hours. Do you know what happened?"

"That place was invaded by underground creatures and has been completely destroyed."

Ding Junyi took a mobile hard drive out of her pocket and handed it to her. "This is the Underground City system log I obtained, as well as the research data of our Biological Research Department. It contains the information you want to obtain."

Taylor took a look, and a deputy next to her immediately took it, connected it to the mobile terminal, and soon a large amount of information was called up:

"The accident is not much different from the headquarters' expected speculation; it should be an S-class nocturnal entity." After some viewing, the deputy reported in a low voice.

"Since that's the case, there's no value in continuing the investigation. Prepare to evacuate." Taylor's tone was indifferent, and then she looked at Ding Junyi and the three of them: "Take them away too; some follow-up reviews will be useful."

"Really? That's great, thank you Supervisor Taylor!!" Zhao Yan and Xu Wen were overjoyed, and their feelings at this moment were beyond words.

From the terror and despair of being buried deep in the underground city to escaping alive, and now receiving official acceptance and shelter, during this period, both of them almost felt like they were reincarnating in hell.

"Also."

Taylor operated on the mobile terminal, then took out a piece of information. "The mission objective of this special investigation team, in addition to investigating Underground City No. 9, also includes a secret research item related to the Biological Research Department. May I ask if you brought it out during the escape?"

Zhao Yan and Xu Wen looked at each other, their expressions changing slightly.

Because the mobile terminal was displaying a certain research code that others couldn't understand, but Ding Junyi and the three of them knew clearly that the secret item referred to the No. 1 Blood Calamity Plant.

Hell Black Chrysanthemum.

As a senior supervisor of the Federal Government, Taylor was obviously a shrewd person. She quickly sensed something unusual from the strange expressions of several people.

Then she didn't speak, directly picked up the mobile terminal, and began to search the monitoring of the system log inside.

Soon she saw how Lin Xian and the others rescued Ding Junyi and the others, and also saw them moving away the disaster plant culture chamber.

"I see."

Taylor handed the mobile terminal to the deputy beside her, then walked directly past Ding Junyi and Zhao Yan and the three of them to Lin Xian.

"Sir, on behalf of the Federal Government, I thank you for your rescue of our research employees. Now, please return the assets belonging to our Federal Government. I will provide some survival supplies to you as compensation." As soon as these words came out, Chen Sixuan and the others' expressions changed suddenly, and even Shu Qin and others began to frown. They didn't know what the assets in Taylor's words were.

However, Lin Xian knew as soon as he heard it; it was that pot of black flowers.

What surprised him a bit was that, judging from what Supervisor Taylor just said, that pot of flowers seemed to be one of the mission objectives of their special investigation team. This was much more valuable than he had expected.

"What if I refuse?"

Just when everyone was guessing the content of the communication between this Federal supervisor and Lin Xian, Lin Xian's words exceeded everyone's expectations.

As soon as these words came out, Taylor suddenly frowned: "You refuse?"

"I refuse." Lin Xian smiled and nodded. "I am not your employee, nor have I accepted any of your commissions. The rescue was just our incidental purpose. So all the items obtained in Underground City No. 9 belong to our team's assets. Can't I refuse?"

"Excuse me, all items in Underground City No. 9 belong to the assets of our Federal Government." Taylor sneered, swept her gaze toward the train behind Lin Xian, and her tone began to carry a bit of threat: "Including that Gemini 11R nuclear-powered electric locomotive."

Hearing this, Lin Xian's expression changed. He had no ability, but the things he risked his life to bring out now openly became the Federal's assets again. It was really shameless to the extreme.

His expression turned cold, meeting her gaze, and he provoked: "So, Supervisor Taylor, how do you plan to take it from me?"

!

Hearing this, Taylor's expression changed slightly. She looked at Lin Xian's gaze, then took a step back and shouted coldly: "Guard Regiment!"

Click click click!

Instantly, dozens of armed Guard Regiment members behind her raised their guns and aimed at Lin Xian and these people in unison.

Shi Diyuan and others frowned when they saw this scene, not knowing why the scene suddenly became tense.

At this time, Zhao Yan and Xu Wen were even more terrified. The two stood on the side of the investigation team, saying neither this nor that.

Patter.

At this time, Ding Junyi suddenly took a step forward, stood beside Lin Xian with her hands in her pockets, and said nothing.

Taylor's gaze froze: "Director Ding, what do you mean by this?"

"The research data I provided just now contains all my achievements as a Federal employee in the Biological Research Institute. Strictly speaking, these achievements, including myself, have already belonged to the assets abandoned by the Federal Government. Now that I have found them again, it shows that I have fulfilled the Federal employee agreement, so I now formally propose my resignation to you. From this moment on, I am no longer a Federal employee."

"Director Ding, are you crazy?!!" Zhao Yan opposite heard this and was shocked. Clearly being pointed at by a gun, but wanting to jump to the opposite side at this time, Zhao Yan couldn't believe what Ding Junyi's brain circuit was. At this time, she lowered her voice and said urgently: "We can leave by airship immediately. Where are you going after resigning here? Could it be..."

She said, looking at Lin Xian with a complex gaze, and held back some words: "Don't you know how dangerous it is?"

In essence, she and Xu Wen still had a certain sense of superiority over those survivors. After all, they were intellectual employees. Even in the apocalypse, they were important assets who didn't need to die on the front line and were protected in the scientific research institute.

Although they were rescued by Lin Xian, how could the train be safer than the laboratory? On this journey of less than a day, they spent half the time in fear, worried about losing their lives at any time.

So she couldn't understand why Ding Junyi would suddenly make such a decision.

"Yeah, Director Ding, what are you thinking!" Xu Wen also said at this time.

Taylor felt extremely displeased at this time. Although in her view, these scientific researchers like Ding Junyi were actually not more valuable than those first-class citizens, in this situation, her move was undoubtedly slapping her, a senior Federal supervisor, in the face.

This made her unbearable.

And Ding Junyi's actions also startled Kiki, Chen Sixuan, and others. Everyone was a bit puzzled.

Only Lin Xian knew what Ding Junyi was thinking, but he glanced at the woman beside him with his peripheral vision at this time, and didn't expect this woman to be so brave...
