Chapter 520: A Profit without Loss
Before Lie Pu's expression could change drastically, Ye Lan spoke without emotion again.
"Are you going to open the door, or are we going to break open the door unkindly?"
Just like Ye Lan said at the beginning. Lie Pu took the first step back and couldn't stop anymore.
Especially now that communication has been connected with the surface, they have no way to hide their problems.
"...You asked me to try to contact him in a special way one last time. If I can't contact him, I will fully cooperate and help you open the door."
After listening to Lie Pu's words, Ye Lan didn't immediately become aggressive. Instead, I only felt a hint of...absurdity.
"How long has it been since you last contacted?"
"..." Lie Pu didn't know what to say: "I don't know either. We won't be in contact even if nothing happens."
Yelan narrowed her eyes.
"First, does it matter if the second experimental point is bulldozed?"
Lie Pu finally sighed.
"I know you don't understand very well. But the reality is that the director is so miraculous that he often disappears without knowing where he is. But he doesn't care about things, and I gradually don't bother to look for him."
Ye Lan and Bai Taotao looked at each other.
It seems that it can be explained, but...is it really reasonable?
"The dragon has its head but not its tail..."
Yelan squinted her eyes, paying special attention to these words.
"You mean, he might go to the surface often?"
Ye Lan didn't expect that this time, he would be questioned by Lie Pu.
"It's not impossible... Indeed, this can explain what he does so mysteriously every day. I have also been curious about what he does in his room every day."
Yelan squinted her eyes again in an incomprehensible manner.
The relationship between these two people... why is it getting weirder and weirder the more I hear it?
Watching Lie Pu leave, Ye Lan turned his head.
"Taotao, you should know something about encryption and coding, right? What do you think of the covert version that Manman contacted Qingyu?"
Yelan didn't have any worries in this regard before, until she got this latest information.
The director of the Broken Institute often secretly travels to the surface.
"I think even so, the possibility of him understanding this version is extremely low. Even if he successfully deciphers it, it will take at least a day." Bai Taotao said his understanding:
"That is to say, even if he succeeds in deciphering it, the time will definitely be after we receive Xia Qingyu's reply."
Is this so...
Ye Lan relaxed slightly and stood in the glass corridor, looking at the plaques hanging everywhere.
There are some pictures and information plaques on the walls.
The portrait above is of a slender, gloomy young man.
"Teng Shen..." Yelan chewed on the name, thoughtfully.
"Is there any problem?" Bai Taotao asked.
"That's not the problem. The main problem is the relationship between Lie Pu and Teng Shen." Ye Lan's expression was slightly strange. Although I feel that this metaphor is inappropriate, I can't think of any other suitable metaphor for a while.
"They make me feel like...like..."
"Uh... an old couple living apart in two places?"
Bai Taotao:......
What kind of outrageous metaphor are you talking about?
But... are there really some similarities?
"But...what does this mean?" Bai Taotao racked his brains and couldn't figure it out.
"Of course it's Teng Shen's position and behavior." Ye Lan said: "He has too many problems. We will only talk about the simplest and most obvious breakthrough."
"The entire Broken Research Institute is actually under Liepu's control, which means he can control virtually every aspect of the Broken Research Institute."
"Coupled with their previous... uh, special relationship." Ye Lan was still a little hard to express: "At least in his sight, the director has never left his office."
Bai Taotao started to feel a little confused.
"But, there is no response now, and there is no door open inside."
That means...there's probably no one in this room right now.
"I'm starting to get curious." Yelan smiled softly: "A secret room or a secret passage?"
The truth of this broken institute is still shrouded in mystery. An area that has not yet been found and is hidden; a director's room that is only inaccessible.
Isn't it possible that this is connected?
"Alas." Lie Servant finally returned to everyone's sight, and Ye Lan immediately focused his gaze on it.
"how do you say?"
Lie Pu sighed again.
"I couldn't get in touch. It seems that he is indeed not here now."
"If you insist on going in." He took out a card: "This is the key I activated through the emergency state. You can go in directly. But everything after that, whether it is an accident for you or him, I have no responsibility for. Responsible."
Ye Lan naturally took it without hesitation, but at the next moment, he was slightly stunned.
"You mean, you won't go in?"
According to normal thinking, Lie Pu must be afraid that we will make some small conspiracies and tricks, so he will be inseparable and follow each other step by step?
What happened? What does it mean to leave the key to yourself and step aside instead?
"We have an agreement that no one else from the Shattered Research Institute is allowed to enter under any circumstances." Lie Pu said.
Of course, this reason... has a lot of flaws.
And I don’t know why, Ye Lan listened to Lie Pu’s voice and didn’t think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, and was eager to try and gloat...
Of course, it shouldn't be directed at me.
"But I still have to remind you that you are intruding. This room is Teng Shen's private territory." Lie Pu further explained, which sounded a bit like a way of distancing himself from Ye Lan: "My approval is useless. If you have any conflicts because of this, it has nothing to do with me."
After quietly looking at Bai Taotao, Ye Lan nodded.
"I know, then you can leave."
"Okay." Lie Pu decisively entered the elevator and pointed to the camera in the corridor.
"Wave over there after you leave here, and I will pick you up as soon as I see it."
He left, and Ye Lan and Bai Taotao were silent for a while.
Bai Taotao was obviously confused.
"Why do I feel... something strange?"
"Indeed, but I can probably guess it." Ye Lan nodded.
"Lie Pu obviously knows that Teng Shen has a secret, and he probably knows what the secret is."
"And." Ye Lan narrowed his eyes: "He is very dissatisfied with this secret, and may even be looking forward to being discovered by us."
Ye Lan's thoughts became smoother as he analyzed.
"It seems that the director of this Broken Research Institute does have a big problem, and it is different from Lie Pu's problem. Under my insistence, he simply came to kill someone with a borrowed knife and divert the trouble to another place."
"That's why Lie Pu has such an attitude-because no matter who of us and Teng Shen can't leave here, he will make a lot of money."
Hearing this, Bai Taotao curled her lips lightly.
"It sounds really uncomfortable. We are being used?"
"Just mutual use." Ye Lan smiled: "Because as long as we go in, we will also make a lot of money."
Ding!
The closed door slowly opened.
