Chapter 342 Headquarters Transfer Order
Chapter 342 Headquarters Transfer Order
"I hope you can take me to the final journey."
Old Cheng spoke softly to He Ling, and his fingers, as old as dead branches, gently touched He Ling's forehead. Even such a simple action could affect the fire of life in He Ling's eyes, but Old Cheng's hands were very steady. The last of the power of space emerged from his body, establishing a thin barrier between the two of them and the onlookers. So in the eyes of outsiders, it all looked like He Ling was facing the old man, Old Cheng, and quietly watching him die.
Although this would affect the reputation between the two strongest Ss, Cheng Lao and He Ling did not care at all about what outsiders would think. He Ling closed his eyes lightly and waited quietly for Cheng Lao's actions to finish.
A faint light illuminated He Ling's forehead, and at the same time, Cheng Lao stuffed an object into her hand. When she opened her eyes, she saw a complete clock wrapped in a special crystal. The time on the clock differed from the real time by a full twelve hours.
"Mr. Cheng, what are you doing......"
"Hush, don't make it known. This is not only my power, but also the power provided by my main body to condense twelve hours of time. Otherwise, even if I die now, I won't be able to gather these twelve hours."
"Child, this is the best gift we can give you. You will definitely need it in the future. Now, just accept it. In addition, I hope you will like the additional gifts I give you."
The light on He Ling's forehead dimmed quickly after it was lit up. Cheng Lao saw that his goal had been achieved, and now he could finally close his eyes.
Seeing Cheng Lao close his eyes, He Ling knew what he should do next.
The space barrier that blocked the two sides disappeared. He Ling stood up, looked at the dead old man in front of him, and stretched out his hand to him.
Icy starlight emerged from He Ling's hands, gradually gathered in the air, and became snowflakes, quietly falling on Cheng Lao's body. When the investigators behind saw He Ling's action, He Cheng, led by him, lowered their heads to mourn. In a trance, it seemed that they could see Cheng Lao serving as the gate guard at the gate of the investigation bureau. When he saw the investigators coming back from a mission, he would give them a candy he made himself, or just come to drink tea. For the investigators who have been in the Chaoyang Investigation Bureau for a long time, Cheng Lao is equivalent to their family, and can be regarded as the most respected person.
It seemed as if he could still see Old Cheng walking to the gate of the investigation bureau and waving to them. The camphor tree beside the gate was quietly dropping its leaves. Then he came to the recliner where Old Cheng had been lying. The old man finally came to the end.
"My work is done, children. Now it is your turn."
Three minutes passed, and the snowflakes on He Ling's hands never stopped falling. Cheng Lao's body was gradually covered with frost. Seeing that the covering was complete, He Ling's trembling hands gradually clenched into fists. He closed his eyes and lowered his head. The old man in front of him was covered with ice and snow. A breeze blew, blowing up the snowflakes on it, but, there was no trace of Cheng Lao anymore. His body had merged with the snowflakes and turned into snowflakes that drifted away along the sky.
This Chaoyang Search Bureau is about to usher in its last day. After one day, it will be integrated into Cheng Lao's space treasure bag. The search bureau in the alien space will no longer exist, and space crystals will grow all over this place until it becomes an eternal uninhabited place.
Most investigators put their precious items here. From the first time they were transferred to this place and saw that He Ling, an S-level investigator, was actually the director here, the surprises and growth they encountered along the way have transformed all of these investigators.
After returning to the Investigation Bureau building, they saw that the space channel behind them was closed. From now on, the Investigation Bureau would no longer exist in Chaoyang City. Everyone was still sad, but He Ling had regained her spirits. As the commander of this team of investigators, if she lost her fighting spirit, she would not be able to survive in this fallen city, not to mention these forty or so investigators.
"We are now resting here. The Alliance Search Bureau should send troops to support us soon. Once the support arrives, we can leave here."
He Ling blocked the main door of the Investigation Bureau building and the front of the facades of the first few floors with solid ice, so the death squads and Honkai beasts couldn't get in at all. The investigation team could rest for a while during this period.
Soon more than three hours passed. He Cheng and Lin Yu Rou were on the top floor, the layer that was shortened by the black rain. He Cheng looked at the bionic prosthesis in his hand in surprise.
"My goodness, this arm is so delicate."
"You little girl actually scared me."
He Cheng and Lin Yurou were together just now. In order to ease the somewhat depressed atmosphere, Lin Yurou took the initiative to talk to He Cheng. He Cheng, like He Ling, was the type of person who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Under Lin Yurou's offensive, he quickly opened up.
Later, Lin Yurou thought of a fun thing. She took the initiative to find Hecheng and hold his hand. Then when he held her hand, she untied her bionic prosthesis. Seeing Lin Yurou's hand suddenly pulled off by Hecheng, Hecheng was almost scared to death. Later, he found out that this sunny girl had lost her arm, but there was still a smile on her face.
The topic then turned to studying Lin Yurou's arm. However, before He Cheng could ask Lin Yurou how she got the arm from Lingcheng Pharmaceutical, the roar of the engine coming from the sky attracted the attention of both of them.
"Lingcheng Medical's helicopter?"
"No, it's the Shenzhou Alliance's armed helicopter!"
After seeing someone on the roof of the Investigation Bureau building, the armed helicopter gradually flew towards here.
...........
"Lord He Ling, please rest here. This is our temporary base. The conditions are a bit poor. Please forgive me."
A soldier spoke to He Ling respectfully, and then led the three of them to a large tent. After saying all this, he retreated, and considerately closed the door before leaving.
"When did these troops treat us so well?"
He Cheng looked outside curiously. Those who knew that He Ling was inside all walked over quietly, for fear of making any noise that would disturb He Ling's rest.
"Is it because I have broken through the peak and reached the ranks of the human ceiling? For the strong, the first thing these people think of is definitely to please me. I am afraid that my sudden appearance will affect many plans within the alliance, right?"
He Ling was holding a book and reading it. It contained a lot of information about the alliance army's arrival here. Most of them were elite troops dispatched from various places. They said that they were here to recapture Chaoyang City, but perhaps they had other purposes?
"Excuse me, is Lord He Ling busy?"
A good-looking female soldier walked in. Seeing the stars on her shoulders and the medals on her chest, she was probably an investigator in the Union Investigation Bureau.
"Well, I'm not busy. What can I do for you?"
He Ling stood up to greet her, but she came to him before he stood up and handed a document to him with both hands.
"Please don't bother to stand up. Here is a dispatch document from the Union Search Bureau headquarters. I hope you can receive it."
