Dark Light Chaser.

Chapter 303 Yueyang Yan

"An investigation has already been launched? What does that mean? Does he have some special identity? Could it be... that he is an apostle?"

Gao Bin asked with surprise and uncertainty.

As Xia Qiyuan started the car, he said, "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. This is a confidential matter of the Countermeasures Bureau."

Gao Bin pointed at himself in surprise: "Really? Even I can't know?"

Xia Qiyuan glanced at him sideways: "Even the bureau chief doesn't know about this, what do you think?"

"Even the bureau chief doesn't know... Wait, I think my rank is higher than the bureau chief's!"

"It's no use no matter how high it goes."

Xia Qiyuan raised his voice slightly: "Don't make wild guesses. Ai Liang is not an apostle. He is a limiter for something."

"Limiter?"

Gao Bin was even more puzzled.

"Your access level is limited to this point."

Xia Qiyuan was getting impatient: "Why are you talking so much nonsense today?"

"Isn't my vacation just around the corner? I have to make sure this last mission is done well, right?"

Gao Bin chuckled.

On the surface, he seemed excited by the vacation.

In fact, Gao Bin was worried during his vacation.

Xia Qiyuan used the excuse that he hadn't handled the mission well to pull himself back into the mess.

Then, naturally, the holiday was spent.

There's no doubt that Xia Qiyuan is capable of doing such a thing.

"Stop thinking about those things and hurry up and finish this business so we can get back to base. The armor will need to be removed during your leave."

"Okay, okay, haven't you heard that slow and steady wins the race? Stop rushing me like you're killing me..."

"I don't care, anyway the holiday officially starts today, it's your time that's being wasted."

Gao Bin paused, glanced at the car's speed of less than 60 km/h, and asked, "How about I drive?"

………………

In the end, Xia Qiyuan did not hand over the steering wheel to Gao Bin, who was possessed by a speed demon.

The two quickly completed their review of Ai Liang's interpersonal relationships.

They returned to their base in Nevada before sunset.

The base in Neva City is also located deep in the mountains, not much different from the one in Thousand Flower City.

Gao Bin followed behind Xia Qiyuan while chewing on some medicinal candy.

After entering the fully enclosed testing ground, he easily made his way to the room specifically used for removing armor.

"Where are you going?"

Xia Qiyuan called out to Gao Bin.

Gao Bin looked around the room to make sure he hadn't come to the wrong place: "You brought me here, didn't you? To strip away the armor?"

At that moment, a lab technician wearing a monocle walked over: "That's a standard armor stripping chamber. Your armor requires more advanced equipment."

Gao Bin stared at him, somewhat dazed.

The researchers greeted him with a smile: "What, you've forgotten about me after recuperating at the criminal investigation team for a while?"

Gao Bin stared intently at the other person's face: "I haven't forgotten, but... how exactly did you manage to wear a monocle on your face?"

"...You're still as unreliable as ever."

The researchers sighed helplessly: "This thing was also made from strange materials. Due to the scarcity of materials, we could only make half of it."

As he spoke, he tapped the lens with his hand.

Dark red lines resembling cracks immediately appeared on it.

Before Gao Bin could observe carefully, an orange-red laser beam shot out from the lens and headed straight for his face.

He instinctively tried to dodge, but his body seemed to be petrified and he couldn't move at all.

Boom!

A heat wave emanated from Gao Bin and spread through the air.

The hot wind made the lab coats of the researchers rustle loudly.

"What the hell! Yue Yangyan, are you out of your mind?!"

Gao Bin was so frightened that he started cursing.

"Hmm, it seems your compatibility with the new armor is indeed quite high."

Yue Yangyan closed the lens and nodded in satisfaction: "Don't worry, the laser power was very low just now. Even if it had hit you, there wouldn't have been any major problems."

"No problem, my foot! How could a human withstand that laser beam? You're definitely trying to murder me!"

Even though Gao Bin has a good temperament, someone else would probably have already taken action and started lecturing Yue Yangyan on physics.

However, Gao Bin's reluctance to act was largely due to Xia Qiyuan standing in front of Yue Yangyan, protecting him.

If things really came to a head, this lackey of Dr. Yue would definitely not stand idly by.

"How could that be? You should have confidence in the armor I modified. Even if you wear this armor, you can still go toe-to-toe with an Apostle."

Yue Yangyan waved his hand dismissively and explained, "How could such a small laser possibly break through the defenses?"

"Couldn't you have told me beforehand, or suggested another location?!"

Yue Yangyan said earnestly, "Sigh, Gao Bin, you're not a child anymore. If the enemy were to ambush you, would they give you advance notice saying 'I'm going to attack your head'?"
"Sweat more in peacetime, bleed less in wartime. I'm doing this for your own good."

"Bullshit, you're clearly trying to test the power of that piece of junk, don't think I can't see that."

Gao Bin said, cursing.

Yue Yangyan immediately turned to Xia Qiyuan: "Alright, judging by the time, the train should be arriving soon, let's set off quickly."

Facing Yueyang Yan, who held the power of life and death over him.

Gao Bin could only follow behind the two men, full of complaints.

As if sensing Gao Bin's dissatisfaction, Yue Yangyan suddenly turned around and comforted him, "Alright, alright, I'll apply for two more months of leave for you as an apology, what do you think?"

"Really?"

Gao Bin asked with some skepticism.

Yue Yangyan patted Xia Qiyuan beside him: "When have I ever lied to you? After all, I'm not this guy."

Xia Qiyuan couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Just say it, why drag me into this?"

After saying that, Xia Qiyuan glanced at Gao Bin behind him and quietly asked through the internal channel, "Isn't the recuperation period four months?"

"Just to be on the safe side," Yueyang Yan replied.

"understood."

Xia Qiyuan nodded.

"Add one more condition: no one is allowed to disturb my life for the next six months."

Gao Bin, completely unaware of what was about to happen to him, was still bargaining with Yue Yangyan.

"No problem. Putting aside the observation period after the armor is removed, you can do whatever you want with the rest of the time. No one will bother you."

Yue Yangyan made a firm promise to Gao Bin.

While chatting, the group arrived at one of the very simple gates of the test site.

Yue Yangyan opened the door using his palm print and iris scan.

Gao Bin was surprised to find that it wasn't a room, but an elevator.

There are no other buttons inside the elevator, only up and down buttons, plus an emergency alarm device.

Does the base actually have a lower level?

Gao Bin secretly guessed to himself.

The elevator was falling very fast, so fast that it gave you the feeling of weightlessness, like riding a drop tower.

For an average person, in addition to motion sickness from air travel, sea travel, and cars, they would probably also experience motion sickness from elevators.

But no one in the elevator was an ordinary person.

As the elevator suddenly slowed down, the elevator doors slowly opened.

What came into Gao Bin's view was a high-speed rail tunnel.
