Chapter 545: Looking for Opportunities
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, everything was ready. Chen Ke, Diana and Parker took a black car and waited on the street diagonally across from the Administration Bureau. A backpack full of psychic containment grenades was thrown in the back seat, and Parker would be responsible for bringing it in when things started.
Chen Ke's plan is very simple. In fact, there is no plan at all... After Lucina and the others enter and touch the door of the archives, as long as Lucina sends a text message to Chen Ke, he will rush in with Diana and the others.
The gray van came into Chen Ke's sight, and Lucina and the others took action.
The car turned to the guard post at the entrance of the administration and was stopped. Two guards in gray uniforms approached the car and motioned to Hall to roll down the window.
"The toilet in Building B is still not repaired...who are you?" The guard came up to say hello, but soon he found that the person sitting in the car was not the one he knew.
"I'm new here, my name is Hopps. This is my partner, Preston." Hall rolled down the window and greeted the guard, and Priskin waved to the guard.
"Why was there a sudden change of people?" the guard asked in surprise.
"They asked for leave and were not ready to come today," Hall said.
"Identification." The guard stretched out his hand doubtfully.
Hall handed the three forged work number plates to the guard.
The guard took the work number plate and looked at it with his lips curled. The photo on the third number plate was of a woman.
"You have another companion? Is he in the carriage?" the guard asked.
"Yes, it's our little sister Lavia." Hall smiled.
"Open the carriage, we want to check it out," the guard said.
"Of course...of course no problem..." Puriskin said, he got out of the car and walked to the side of the car with the guard.
Chen Ke, who was observing from a distance, saw Priskin getting out of the car, thinking that their whereabouts had been exposed, and a grenade gun appeared in his hand.
"Don't panic Chen Ke, they are just undergoing inspection." Diana held Chen Ke's hand.
"Do all incoming and outgoing vehicles need to be inspected like this?" Chen Ke asked.
"No, I think it's just because the people who often come in and out have changed, that's why the guards are suspicious," Diana said.
Lucina opened the door of the carriage. She tied her hair up and was wearing a gray-blue overalls with the zipper pulled down to her navel. She only wore underwear inside. It was a little hot in the carriage and beads of sweat were dripping down her neck. , covered in sweat.
She was carrying a large bucket of sewer solvent and was about to get out of the car.
"So... um... hello, Ms. Lavia..." The guard looked at Lucina and swallowed.
"Pris...Ston, I thought we were here." Lucina looked at Priskin.
"They want to check it out, little sister, you'd better cooperate." Hall said.
"Oh... do you want to search me?" Lucina looked at the guard with a half-smile.
"If necessary...are these all detergents?" The guard pointed to the white buckets stacked in the carriage.
"Yes, they are all slippery, but they won't bubble." Lucina zipped up the zipper and put the bucket in the car.
"Ah, that's true, but it's best not to apply it on your body... I mean, these things are corrosive." The guard laughed.
"Your eyes are more corrosive than this thing, sir." Lucina also smiled. She looked at Priskin, who also laughed awkwardly.
"Nice to meet you... If Bill and the others are busy... you can come often in the future." The guard smiled.
"Your toilet pipes don't want us to come all the time, do they?" Hall interjected.
Several people laughed, and there was a cheerful atmosphere in front of the sentry door. The guard handed the work number plate back to Hall, and then waved his hand to let them in.
"Thank you, I hope the problem can be solved this time." Hall said.
"I wish you good luck," the guard said.
Watching the car slowly drive in, Chen Ke sighed.
"They get in, and then what? How long might we have to wait?" Parker asked.
"I told Lucina the location of the office, but I remember she told me that they had to go downstairs and pretend to repair the toilet pipes first, so I don't know when they would find a chance to go up there." Diana shook her head.
"If they were exposed inside, it would be very difficult to save people," Parker said.
"They are veterans." Chen Ke said.
The cleaning truck drove into the underground parking garage of the authority, and three people, led by the building guard, walked into the pipe room carrying large buckets, small buckets and tools.
"Hello, I hope you can solve the problem here as soon as possible. The toilet on the third floor does not seem to have enough pumping power, but the water pump is normal. When you came last time, you said that a section of the pipe was blocked." A leader said The bespectacled woman told Hall the situation.
"I know, I know, we will deal with it. There are so many pipes here." Hall knocked on the pipes with a wrench, looking back at the guard from time to time.
"Do we need to stop the water first so that you can clear the water?" the lady asked.
"No, no need for now. We need to determine which pipe is blocked first, and then we also need to check the condition of your main drain pipe." Hall shook his head.
"Okay then, I'll go do other things first. If you need anything, just tell him and I'll be right over," the lady said.
"We will, ma'am, Preston... give me that... and then, little sister, go over there and take a look..." Hall pretended to command.
Seeing this, the lady and the building guard did not want to disturb them from continuing their work, so they exited the pipe room and gently closed the door.
The three of them looked at the door and waited quietly for 20 seconds. Lucina tiptoed over, leaned against the door and listened carefully to the noise outside, then gave them a thumbs up.
"Okay... let's go. What now?" Priskin asked.
"I don't know either. This is the basement. Our destination should be upstairs." Hall spread his hands.
"Diana said the office is on the 12th floor, the archive office." Lucina said.
"Yes, that's right, it's the 12th floor of this building, but I'm sure they will notice us as long as we leave here and go upstairs." Hall said.
"Okay, everyone, think of a way. Now we are in and have made a good start. Is there any ventilation duct here that can climb to the 12th floor..." Lucina rubbed her hands and looked at the long corridors and complex pipes between the pipes.
"It's impossible. The ventilation system and the water pipes are separate. We can only go forward along this passage and see if we can get out from somewhere else." Priskin shook his head.
"There are cameras all over the building, it's hard not to be discovered, and Diana said that the operation area of the CPA headquarters has a strict hierarchical planning, and you can't go in without a door card." Lucina said.
"This is troublesome. I thought the toilet would be unblocked in the real toilet, but I didn't expect them to let us come here to fix the pipes." Hall was also at a loss.
"Let's go forward and see, this is the only way we can do it, right?" Priskin said.
Lucina took out her mobile phone, it was a text message from Chen Ke, she opened it and saw only a brief inquiry.
"What's the situation?"
"Lost," Lucina replied.
"Where is it." Chen Ke replied quickly.
"Pipe room." Lucina replied again.
"She doesn't know either." This time it took a while for Chen Ke to reply again. Obviously, Chen Ke asked Diana.
"We'll find a way ourselves." Lucina replied.
"What did Chen Ke say?" Hall asked.
"They don't know either." Lucina said helplessly.
"That Diana... who is she? Is she so familiar with the Administration?" Priskin asked.
"She used to be an agent of the Administration, that's all I know." Lucina answered.
"Shit... could this be a trap... could Chen Ke be bewitched by that bitch?" Priskin's expression became serious.
"Damn it, wake up, we've all come in, and you're just saying this... Chen Ke believes in her, so we can believe in her too." Hall said.
"Well... this job is dangerous, you know?" Priskin said.
"Do you want to quit now?" Lucina frowned.
"No... I just want to figure out if the current Chen Ke is still the one who was the postman." Priskin shook his head.
"He has always been." Lucina stared at Priskin.
"Okay, that's enough, let's just go forward along this aisle, there will always be a way." Hall pushed Priskin and patted Lucina again.
The three of them continued to move forward silently.
At this time, Lucina's mobile phone received another text message from Chen Ke.
"Be safe."
