Chapter 431: Mutual testing, underground cable car
When Lu Qi followed the ladder kicked down by Ada and returned to the platform from the smelly sewage, Ada's first words were:
"Oh! The smell of you..."
As she spoke, Ada couldn't help but frown and took a half step back with a look of disgust.
Seeing Ada's expression and movements, Lu Qi said half helplessly and half angrily:
"How dare you say that?! If you hadn't said this was the only way, I would have jumped down there?!"
Hearing this, Ada, who had tricked Lu Qi, suppressed the smile in her heart, shrugged, spread her hands and said:
"I don't know. It turns out that you can go to other places. After all, this is my first time in a place like this..."
"As for you, what surprises me even more is that you are safe..."
"Otherwise, do you think I'm dead?"
Hearing Lu Qi's words, Ada raised her eyebrows and nodded without hesitation:
"Yes, you can still survive in front of that kind of monster. It seems that your life is quite long..."
Although she said this, Ada was also a little shocked by the super combat power Lu Qi showed just now.
This man was very strong and calm, with a calmness about him that seemed like nothing would make him panic.
If we say that in the beginning, the reason for proactively proposing a cooperation agreement was just to use this man to obtain information.
Now, Ada's impression of Lu Qi is a little more appreciative.
Especially when she encountered danger, Lu Qi took the initiative to face it and protected her behind him, which made her feel good about him.
Cooperating with Lu Qi may be a good move to make it easier for her to obtain samples of the g-virus.
Glancing at Lu Qi aside, Ada couldn't help but thought in her heart:
It seems that the value of this man can be further explored...
...
Following the platform of the underground waterway, the two walked through a narrow walkway and came to an elevator leading deeper.
When you step into the elevator, the elevator's iron bars automatically close.
Seeing this, Ada, who was leaning next to the elevator, folded her hands on her chest and said:
"Go down from here and you should soon arrive at the umbrella's underground facilities..."
Hearing this, Lu Qi tried to divert his attention away from the stench on his body, looked at Ada, and asked casually:
"By the way, when did you come here?"
"Two days after the virus leaked, what about you?"
"Almost, after the informant arranged here submitted the report, I was sent over by the superiors for further investigation."
Hearing Lu Qi's words, Ada blinked, not knowing what she thought of, and then joked: "It seems that your boss trusts you very much..."
Hearing this, Lu Qi met Ada's gaze with interest and asked curiously:
"Oh, why do you say that?"
"He must have a lot of confidence in you, so he would send you alone to deal with the incident here, right?"
At first glance, Ada's words may seem like they don't mean much. However, there is something behind them.
Obviously, this smart woman was testing him to see if he came to Raccoon City alone or if he had other teammates as backup.
Naturally, Lu Qi would not step on this little trap in words so foolishly.
"Although I'm not the most popular one, it's okay..."
He first shrugged and answered the question vaguely, and then immediately asked in turn:
"But you, such a beautiful woman, are sent to an unfamiliar city alone to investigate a virus leak. Isn't it too dangerous?"
"Aren't you afraid that the superiors will regard you as an abandoned child and abandon you in this city full of monsters? As far as I know, the FBI is a master of this method..."
Lu Qi's meaningful words made Ada startled for a moment, and a thought suddenly popped into her mind: Does he know something?
As soon as this idea arose, Ada immediately rejected it.
impossible!
There is absolutely no way he knows about my relationship with Wesker!
However, Lu Qi's words still made her fall into deep thought.
She was indeed ordered to come to Raccoon City to seize G-virus samples.
However, her superior is not the so-called FBI, but a mysterious organization that is opposed to the Umbrella Company.
And Wesker is her partner. The goal of both of them is to kill the g-virus.
Although they are partners who cooperate with each other, Ada does not trust Wesker and is very wary of this "dead man" who betrayed him from the umbrella.
(At this time, Wesker had already faked his death during the mansion incident and went underground, secretly stumbling under the protective umbrella.)
Ada is not worried about the organization she works for abandoning her, but she has to be wary of whether Wesker will let her leave the city alive once she gets the g-virus...
Even though there were thousands of thoughts in her mind, Ada was still very calm on the surface and smiled slightly:
"In order to prevent that kind of thing from happening, we should find Yani as soon as possible and get something as dangerous as the G-virus from her hands, right?"
Just when the two seemed to be trying to get any useful information from each other, there was a "ding" sound as the elevator arrived at its destination, interrupting their conversation.
Arriving at a place that looked like an electrical machine room, Lu Qi immediately noticed a sky blue brochure on a box in the corner.
When he opened it, Lu Qi discovered that it was an employee handbook from a sewer company.
In addition to the rules to be followed, the manual also has a detailed map of the area.
Of course, the entrance to the underground laboratory is not marked on the map.
However, Lu Qi still found a somewhat special facility on the map: the cable car!
There is actually a cable car underground in the city, which is abnormal in itself.
Obviously, Ada on the side also thinks so:
"The employees of the sewer company must also be from the Umbrella Company. Otherwise, the existence of the underground laboratory must not be hidden. This cable car should be the transportation to the underground laboratory."
"Is it an underground cable car? This is the first time I've seen it..."
The two people stuffed the manual into their pockets, confirmed the direction, and headed towards the cable car.
However, they are not the only humans in the underground waterways...
When the two of them walked not far away, they opened a door and met the first living person they had seen since entering the sewer:
In the brightly lit narrow passage, a blond woman in a white coat was squatting next to a zombie body, observing carefully and muttering to herself:
"...It's definitely a good thing William did..."
The moment she saw the woman, Ada's eyes flashed, and she immediately took out her pistol and pointed it at the woman:
Chapter completed!
