Lord of Puro

Chapter 687: Warehouse and Cell (Nuclear Energy in This Chapter)

The next morning, Li Banfeng came to the Dark Star Bureau again.

He had no intention of making a deal with He Jiaqing, no matter how attractive the conditions He Jiaqing offered were.

There is only one building like this. Even if he walks around every corner, even if he just guesses and tries hard, Li Banfeng is still confident that he can find the real data room.

The last time he looked for the fake data room, he found it in the stairwell. This time, Li Banfeng went to the stairwell again.

The data room was destroyed and the stairwell should have been closed. Li Banfeng was prepared and went in directly using the technique of unimpeded movement. If his own technique was not enough, he would use the technique of deep mansion and large courtyard and borrow the technique from Hong Ying.

My wife once said that Hong Ying’s skill of moving freely could penetrate the mountain. Even if he couldn’t borrow the full power of the technique, Li Banfeng was confident that he could pass through the wall of the building.

But when he reached the door of the stairwell, Li Banfeng was stunned. The stairwell was not closed, there was no one guarding it, and it was not even locked.

This is what Gao Yina said, defensive work cannot be done openly.

The higher-ups must have stepped up the defenses of the real data room, but no changes were visible on the outside.

Li Banfeng started from the first floor and walked up, passing through the walls of the stairwells on each floor to see the specific conditions of each floor.

The stairwell is still equipped with dense surveillance facilities, but as long as there is a projector, all equipment with lenses is under control.

There was nothing wrong with the idea, but the result disappointed Li Banfeng. From the first floor to the top floor, the exits of each stairwell were the same, which were all elevator entrances.

The stairwell became a real stairwell, no longer an entrance to a secret area, and even the fake data room hidden on the twelfth floor was no longer visible.

There have been changes in the Dark Star Bureau, and this building is no longer the same as before.

This building seems to have undergone some kind of massive transformation overnight. Can any traces of the transformation be found in the stairwell?
Li Banfeng walked up the stairs. Each floor was cleaned spotlessly, without any trace left.

He went straight back to the office from the stairwell and was about to call Chen Changrui to ask about what happened last night when a quarrel suddenly broke out from the security team.

"I haven't received any documents to withdraw from the security team. What qualifications do you have to take away my locker?"

It's the voice of a middle school student.

"With your physical condition, there's no way you can go back to the security team. New recruits are coming soon, and I have to free up a few cabinets for them!"

This is Old Sun, who is in charge of logistics. This old guy hasn’t retired yet. What is he doing in the security team?

Zhong Er said to Lao Sun: "You are specifically staring at my cabinet. Do you have to make things difficult for me?"

Old Sun glared and said, "I am in charge of logistics. This is my job. If you think I am doing something wrong, go talk to our section chief. Why are you yelling at me?"

"I'm going to yell at you today. I'm going to reason with you! Even if your section chief comes, I'm going to make this clear!"

Old Sun sneered, "Okay, young people are really full of energy. Even our section chief can't suppress you. Then let's not look for the section chief, let's go talk to Director Chen. I have a lot to say to Director Chen. There are some things you may have forgotten, but I'm still thinking about them!"

The middle school student remained silent.

Is this kid giving in?

Did Old Sun have something on him?
Lao Sun is just in charge of logistics and miscellaneous affairs. What evidence can he hold against Zhong Er?
It would be fine if Old Sun just wanted to talk nonsense and scare the middle school student, but he even dared to make trouble to Chen Changrui. It seems that this matter is not trivial.

Zhong Er was silent, and Lao Sun became more aggressive: "How many years have I worked in the bureau? Not to mention you, even if your captain came here, wouldn't he have to call me Big Brother? What kind of attitude is this when you talk to me like this?"

Insect cultivator He Bensheng advised: "Brother Sun, it's just a small matter, it won't be a big deal."

Old Sun pushed He Bensheng aside and said, "What do you mean by a small matter? A young boy pointed at my nose and challenged me. Is this a small matter?

Does he still have manners? Does he still have upbringing? Who supports him, who spoiled him to have these bad habits? "

Lao Sun's voice was getting louder and louder, and the landline on Zhong Er's desk rang.

"Director Li, yes, I'll be there right away." Zhong Er put down the phone and went to Li Banfeng's office immediately.

Old Sun looked around and asked Haitangguo, "Is Director Li back?"

Haitangguo glanced at Lao Sun and said, "I heard that he is back. Don't go too far. I will probably call you over soon."

"What do you want me to do? I didn't do anything. It's just a cabinet. Why would you do anything to me for such a small thing?
I am not afraid even if Director Li comes back, I am in the right, I am really not afraid..." Old Sun's voice became smaller and smaller, and he lowered his head and left the office.

……

Seeing that Zhong Er was limping, Li Banfeng asked, "Who asked you to leave the hospital?"

Zhong Erdao: "Doctor Kang approved my discharge from the hospital and told me to go home to recuperate. In fact, I also know that he has tried his best, and I can't recover better."

"Who says you can't recover better? You should at least follow what Dr. Kang said and rest at home for a while."

"No need to rest," Zhong Er shook his head. "Director Li, I'm fine now. I can walk and run, but I can't run fast. But it won't affect my work.

I can still fight. I still have the foundation of a third-level fighter. I am still useful. You know I have always been useful!"

When he said this, the middle school student's voice trembled a little, and this idiot was really feeling upset.

"Who said you were useless? I told you to take a good rest, but you insisted on coming back to work, and even quarreled with someone over a cabinet!" Li Banfeng asked the projector to deal with the surveillance equipment in the office, and asked Zhong Er, "What on earth do you have in Lao Sun's hands?"

Chuunibaki lowered his voice and said, "I've been to the stairwell before and was discovered by Old Sun."

Hearing the stairwell, Li Banfeng was stunned for a moment: "What have you been doing?
Chuuji shook his head and said, "I had no intention of going to the stairwell. I broke the rules unintentionally."

"Rules?" Li Banfeng was stunned. "Which rule says that we are not allowed to go to the stairwell?"

Zhong Er still shook his head: "Going to the stairwell is not against the rules. According to the regulations, we can enter the stairwell with the permission of our superiors, but we must exit from the same floor we entered, and we are absolutely not allowed to enter other floors."

Li Banfeng was stunned again: "Which system stipulates this?"

Zhong Er lowered his head and said, "This is not a written rule, it is a verbal rule. In the security team, this kind of verbal rule is passed down verbally from the master to the apprentice.

Once, when the equipment was being repaired, the electrician had to go to the stairwell to work, and he had to be supervised by a security team member. At that time, Director Chen was still the captain of the security team, and he assigned Datou to supervise. I was Datou's apprentice, and he took me to the stairwell on the 16th floor.

Logically, he should have explained the rules to me in advance, but I don't know what happened that day, he was restless and kept mumbling a few words from time to time, as if he was talking to someone. "

Li Banfeng asked, "Is he holding some kind of communication device in his hand?"

Never underestimate the detective ability of a middle school student. He actually noticed this: "I'm not sure if it was a communication tool. I just remember that he was holding the button of his shirt in his hand.

Combined with some subsequent events, I suspect he was contacting He Jiaqing at the time. "

Li Banfeng nodded slightly and said, "Go on."

Zhong Erdao: "Two electricians checked from the 16th floor to the 18th floor. They found the damaged line on the 18th floor, issued a work ticket, and immediately cut off the power for repair.
At that time, all the monitoring equipment in the stairwell was powered off. The two electricians were concentrating on their work. Datou was standing at the corner of the stairs, fiddling with the buttons.

At that time, I thought he was really abnormal, so I paid more attention to him. Big Head must have noticed it, and he asked me to go upstairs to check other power equipment. It was obvious that he wanted to get me out of here.

I don't know how to do electrical work, but since he told me to do it, I had no choice but to follow his instructions. When I got to the 19th floor, I found that the staircase door was open. Behind the staircase door was a large iron door, which was also open. After entering the large iron door, I saw a cell.
The 19th floor was originally an activity center with a gym and billiard room. I have no idea when a cell was built there."

A cell is a prison cell.

Li Banfeng asked: "How do you know it's the prison cell?"

"Behind the big iron door is another iron door. That iron door is closed. There is a cell number six written on the door. But as far as I know, there are only five cells in the Dark Star Bureau."

"Were there any guards in the cell at that time?"

"No, but I heard some noises in the cell. I stood at the door for a while and heard someone sighing inside."

Li Banfeng raised his eyebrows.

There was actually someone in cell number six.

"Who's imprisoned in there?"

Zhong Er shook his head and said, "I don't know who it is. I couldn't open the door of the cell. I was very scared at the time and didn't dare to stay for long. I hurried downstairs.

I wanted to tell Datou about this, but he was still mumbling while holding the button. I asked him what he was mumbling about, and he said he was preparing for the exam and was memorizing the questions. He also asked me to go downstairs to continue checking the lines.

Datou sent Zhonger away twice, it seemed that he had something important to discuss with He Jiaqing.

Li Banfeng asked, "Did you go downstairs?"

"He asked me to go, so I had to go. I walked down from the 18th floor. The 17th and 16th floors were fine. When I got to the 15th floor, I found that the corridor door was also open. There was also a big iron door behind the corridor door. I pushed open the iron door and saw that there was a warehouse inside."

In Li Banfeng's impression, there was no warehouse on the fifteenth floor, but that didn't matter. The conditions that one could see when entering a certain floor from the stairs were completely different from those under normal circumstances.

Li Banfeng also encountered a similar situation when he went to the fake data room on the twelfth floor. There was a big iron door behind the corridor door, but the big iron door was closed. The gloves and the projector had to work together to open the door, but why was the door open both times that Zhong Er went there?
What exactly happened at that time?
"Have you been into the warehouse?"

"I'm inside. There are a lot of equipment in the warehouse, and there's also a batch of blending agents and guiding agents."

Li Banfeng asked, "Is this warehouse on the fifteenth floor the same as the carrier department warehouse on the eleventh floor?"

Zhong Er shook his head and said, "It's different from the carrier department warehouse. That warehouse is much larger and much older. I have never seen most of the equipment in the warehouse, but judging from the appearance, many of the equipment are no longer of practical value."

Li Banfeng asked: "How do you know that those devices have no practical value?"

"I saw a steam locomotive," said Chuunibyou.

Li Banfeng was surprised and asked, "You saw the locomotive in the warehouse?"

"Yes, I am sure that it is not a model, it is a real steam train. I don't know how such a big thing was put into the warehouse. The size of the train is much larger than the door of the warehouse.

The Dark Star Bureau certainly cannot run trains. If this kind of equipment cannot be taken out, what use can it have?
I felt like I was in the wrong place, so I left immediately. When I got back to the 18th floor, the electrician had finished his work.

Datou said he had something urgent to do and would leave the bureau once the power supply was restored.
I wanted to tell him the next day, but that afternoon, Captain Chen found me and criticized me harshly when he found out that I took the stairs to another floor.

Li Banfeng asked: "Didn't you explain the reason to Chen Changrui?"

"I explained to Captain Chen that I really didn't know there was such a rule, and Captain Chen forgave me, but he told me that Lao Sun already knew about it and asked me to be more careful in the future."

At this point, Zhong Er explained the matter clearly, and Lao Sun did have something on him.

Li Banfeng asked: "Did I come to the Dark Star Bureau at that time?"

Chuuji nodded and said, "You are here. You just took up your post."

"There are cells on the 19th floor and a warehouse on the 15th floor. How come no one told me about this?"

Zhong Er explained: "Director Li, I didn't know you at that time, and I didn't know how many people knew about this cell. I definitely couldn't report it to you voluntarily..."

Li Banfeng waved his hand and said, "This is not your fault. I just don't understand why Old Sun knew about this."

Zhong Erdao: "At first I thought it was Lao Sun who checked the surveillance, but I asked my colleagues in the monitoring room and found out that during the electrical work, the surveillance equipment in the corridor from the 15th to the 20th floor was turned off."

Li Banfeng thought for a long time and asked, "Besides the train, did you see anything else in the warehouse on the 15th floor?"

Zhong Er thought for a moment and said, "There is also a floor-standing radio, a floor-standing television, a wire recorder, and a planer.
At the time, I was inexperienced and thought that such equipment should be left in a museum to collect dust, but now I think that such equipment may still have great research value.”

"Dust..." Li Banfeng thought for a long time and asked, "Are these devices really covered in dust?"

Zhong Er rubbed his forehead, thought for a long time, shook his head and said, "There is no dust, the warehouse is very clean."

The warehouse is very clean and the stairwell is also clean.

"If it's clean, it means someone cleans it. Who is responsible for the cleaning work in the bureau?"

"The cleaning work is in the logistics department..." Zhong Er suddenly realized, "It's Lao Sun! He is in charge of the cleaning work in the bureau!"

Li Banfeng said: "Call Lao Sun in!"

If Lao Sun arranged people to clean the stairwell, he must know a lot of secrets inside the stairwell.

We should be able to get clues about the real data room from him.

Soon, Lao Sun came.

Seeing Li Banfeng, Lao Sun was not panicked. He sat down at the desk and said slowly: "I don't know what Xiao Qin said to you. I will handle the matter of the cabinet without any problem." "Who asked you about the cabinet?" Li Banfeng looked at Lao Sun expressionlessly.

Old Sun looked confused: "So what are you asking?"

"Think about it yourself."

"I, I can't even think of this..." Lao Sun was a little panicked.

Li Banfeng said: "How about I help you think about it, you tell me about the cleaning work first."

Old Sun sweated. "I did spend a little more on cleaning, but I can check the accounts. I spent money on legitimate purposes."

This old guy tampered with the cleaning fees.

"I didn't mention your spending money! Talk about something else."

"Well, what else can I do?" Old Sun pursed his lips. "Director Li, I am just a logistics manager. I am about to retire. What else can I do?"

Li Banfeng lifted his hat brim, his eyes gleaming coldly: "Let me remind you again, who is responsible for the cleaning work in the stairwell?"

Old Sun shook his head repeatedly: "Director Li, there is no cleaning work arranged for the stairwell. I have never violated the rules of the bureau."

"Are you kidding me? The stairwell is spotless. Have you never arranged for someone to clean it?"

"Never!" Although Old Sun was very nervous, his tone was not ambiguous at all. "Director Li, you can check the accounts or the people, but I dare not lie about this matter."

Li Banfeng asked, "Then how do you know about that Zhong Er thing?"

Old Sun wiped his sweat and said, "I heard this from the electricians. They said that when they were working, they saw Qin Minghui walking upstairs and downstairs twice. They thought that this newcomer didn't know the rules and were afraid that he would cause trouble and implicate them.
I guessed that Qin Minghui had violated the rules and went to another floor, so I told their team leader. Unexpectedly, Team Leader Chen called Qin Minghui over that afternoon.
I saw that I was right, so I used it to scare Xiao Qin. I really didn’t know what was going on, and I didn’t dare touch the stairwell.”

Li Banfeng frowned: "You're not telling the truth, right?"

"Director Li, I am telling the truth!"

The power of the cultivators above the clouds is not something that ordinary people can resist.

Old Sun almost peed his pants, it seems that he really didn't lie.

Boom boom boom!
The head of the logistics department knocked on the door, entered the office, apologized first, and then asked for instructions: "Director Li, I heard that there was a problem with Lao Sun's work. As the head of the department, I can't escape the blame. Can you let me understand the situation first?"

Li Banfeng nodded, indicating that he could take Lao Sun away.

After leaving the office, Lao Sun was still walking unsteadily, so the logistics chief asked, "What on earth has got you into trouble?"

Old Sun sighed and said, "In the final analysis, it's just a matter of a cabinet. I thought Qin Minghui would not come back, so I took his cabinet away first..."

The head of the logistics department frowned and said, "Are you sick? You mess around with those broken cabinets in the locker room every day, like they are your family heirlooms. What do you want to do? Whenever you are given something to do, do you have to make things difficult for others?"

Old Sun was also scared, and quickly went to apologize to Zhong Er: "Xiao Qin, I'm old, not only am I rude, but I'm also old. Don't be so mean to me. I have several cabinets, you can choose for yourself."

He thought the matter was over, but Li Banfeng took it seriously. He checked the people and the files.

It turns out that the Dark Star Bureau didn't actually arrange any cleaning work in the stairwell.

But the stairwell is so clean, who is cleaning it?
That night, Li Banfeng went to the stairwell again and walked back and forth several times, but saw nothing.

Back in Suishenju, Li Banfeng was still thinking about the cause and effect of the matter. Honglian came close to Li Banfeng and quietly spread out her petals.

The two lotus seeds exploded one after another, and the gloves and earrings came in front of Li Banfeng.

Lotus caressed Li Banfeng's cheek with the lotus leaf: "Qi, do you like it?"

Li Banfeng pushed aside the lotus leaf, looked at the gloves and earrings and asked, "Are there any changes?"

Gloves stood up, raised his index finger and said, "Boss, there are many changes, and they are all very useful. I am not familiar with some of the methods. I will demonstrate them to you when I am familiar with them."

The earring said, "Master, I feel my ears are more sensitive than before."

Li Banfeng nodded: "Very good, you have all worked hard, take a good rest."

Gloves could see that Li Banfeng was preoccupied, so he didn't dare to disturb him and first studied Xiao Qianshou's skills carefully.

The next morning, Li Banfeng arrived at the Dark Star Bureau and went to the stairwell again.

This time he changed his strategy.

During his student days, countless exams taught him a valuable lesson: for some questions, you don’t have to really understand them; you can get points as long as you can copy the answers!

He no longer searched floor by floor, but directly replayed the scene. He entered from the sixteenth floor and came out from the nineteenth floor.

The cell on the 19th floor is the key. In Li Banfeng's opinion, this cell is much more important than the warehouse.

He Jiaqing sneaked into the Dark Star Bureau with the purpose of saving He Haisheng. Datou may know the existence of cell No. 6, and He Jiaqing may have gone to cell No. 6.

What he saw in cell number six was most likely the real data room.

He said that place didn't look like a data room, which explained the matter.

But surprisingly, after Li Banfeng came out of the stairwell, the 19th floor was still the activity center, without any change.

Scene reproduction doesn’t work anymore?

Are there any conditions that have been overlooked?
time!

The time should also be reproduced accurately.

Li Banfeng called Zhong Er and asked, "What time was it when you saw cell number six?"

Chuuji thought for a moment and said, "After 3pm, I can't remember the exact time."

After three o'clock, this time range is a bit large.

Li Banfeng thought for a moment and asked the archives room to bring the electrical work ticket for that day.

Work tickets are issued by the ticketing system and have a clear time displayed on them.

The ticket opening time was 3:26. Li Banfeng and Zhong Er made some calculations and found that it should be around 3:50 when he discovered cell number 6.

At 3:50, Li Banfeng entered the stairwell on the 16th floor again, walked to the 19th floor, pushed open the corridor door, and saw a large iron door.

It worked!
The Dark Star Bureau's staircase puzzle has appeared!
Behind this door should be the cell number 6 that Zhong Er saw.

Who is imprisoned in the cell?

What is the relationship between this person and the real data room?
There are many monitoring devices around the big iron gate, as well as retinal scanning instruments, all of which are processed by the projector.

The glove fumbled with the iron door for a moment, and with a creak, the door opened.

He opened the door really fast. Li Banfeng patted his gloves and said, "Brother, there is another door inside. I have to ask you for help."

According to Zhong Er's description, there is the door to cell number six behind the iron gate.

After Li Banfeng entered the iron gate, it was pitch black inside. He lowered his voice and said, "Boss, there's no way."

No way?
Li Banfeng lit a match and looked around in the light of the fire.

He saw glass containers of different styles and sizes.

He saw a wire recorder, a floor-standing radio, and a huge machine.

That huge thing is a steam locomotive.

Li Banfeng struck another match and looked at the locomotive carefully.

Zhong Er was right, this was not a model. Li Banfeng was sure that this was the real thing. This type of train was very common in Provo.

Why was the locomotive placed in the warehouse? Li Banfeng couldn't figure out the reason.

But what puzzled Li Banfeng even more was that he wanted to go to cell number six on the 19th floor, but now that he was on the 19th floor, why did he see the warehouse on the 15th floor instead?
Is this the warehouse on the 15th floor?

Li Banfeng lit the third match and looked back at the other items on the shelf.

A floor-standing TV, a steam sewing machine, and that very eye-catching planer.

This is the warehouse that Zhong Er saw. There are still many things here that are not outdated for Prozhou.

As for why it was moved to the 19th floor, Li Banfeng couldn't think of the answer for the time being.

Li Banfeng walked to the depths of the warehouse and carefully observed the layout of the warehouse. Suddenly, he heard Qiansi Earrings say, "Master, there is movement."

hiss~
It sounded like steam puffing.

Li Banfeng turned around suddenly and saw a steam locomotive appear behind him, less than three meters away from him.

The steam locomotive actually moved!

"call out!"

Li Banfeng heard a low humming sound, but because the sound was too low and too unclear, Li Banfeng could not make out the content of the sound.

But he sensed danger and began to shiver.

"call out!"

Another low groan was heard, and this time Li Banfeng heard it clearly!
The train was talking to him.

He didn't say one word, he said two words.

What he said was: "Brother!"

Why does the train call me brother?
"Is it you, He Jiaqing?" Li Banfeng suspected that He Jiaqing was on the train!
"I read it wrong!"

Another low hum, and this time Li Banfeng understood it.

He said "I saw it wrong", what did he see wrong?

Li Banfeng was still thinking when he suddenly heard Suishenju say in his ear: "Aqi, get out of the way!"

Without any hesitation, Li Banfeng used the Traceless Steps Technique and quickly dodged to the right.

The locomotive turned suddenly and chased after them.

Chuuniburi made a serious mistake, he thought that trains were not allowed to run in the Dark Star Bureau.

It turns out that it is possible to run a train in this warehouse because it has a lot of space.

Li Banfeng shuttled between the shelves and display cabinets. At his speed, he ran at full speed. After running for more than five minutes, he still hadn't seen the end of the warehouse.

What's even more terrible is that if Li Banfeng simply ran in a straight line, he would not be able to outrun this steam locomotive. As long as he paused for the slightest, the locomotive would immediately catch up with him.

In order to avoid the train, he kept jumping sideways. After jumping a few times, he found that he could not find the wall.

The space on all four sides of the warehouse was extending, and the speed of extension exceeded the speed of Li Banfeng's running.

"Give it back!"

The locomotive was about to catch up with Li Banfeng, and Li Banfeng quickly dodged to the left.

The locomotive was about to turn left when there was a loud bang and the two trains collided head-on.

"Little train?" asked the engine.

"Old train?" Suishenju replied.
