Chapter 130 Sneaking into the company
Gu Ji's thoughts were empty for a moment, and every breath he took was heavy.
As soon as I saw the name "Volut".
He couldn't help but think of his father's plane crash.
But soon, his investigative instinct pulled him out of his confusion. His eyes glanced at the somewhat alert security guard at the door, lowered the brim of his hat, and turned to leave.
As the world's top technology and medical company, Volut's New York branch occupies a large area. It has built a closed technology park in the Brooklyn Technology Triangle, where land is scarce.
In addition to the gate with a license plate and pass recognition system on the front, the park is surrounded by a two-meter-high iron fence, and a white-pole spherical camera is set up nearby. In addition to landscape greening, vegetation, and parking lots, there are three white buildings inside. One tall and two short.
Technology companies involve a lot of secrets and often have very strict entry and exit management.
It's definitely not possible to go through the main entrance.
Gu Ji pretended to be a passerby and "wandered" around the park, but in fact he was secretly observing the operation of the cameras.
The visual range of each camera is about 20 meters, and it should have an object detection and tracking function. As long as an object moves, its spherical camera will follow the rotation to lock the target.
Is it just that the external security is so tight?
Fifteen minutes later, Gu Ji walked around in a complete circle and couldn't find even a single surveillance blind spot.
"It would be great if we had the technical means of the Unabomber. We could directly hack into the surveillance system and save trouble easily."
In terms of various counter-terrorism skills, Gu Ji can make tactical breakthroughs at the top and medical first aid at the bottom. The only thing he lacks is computer technology.
He couldn't help but think of Zhao Hua, an intelligence technician from the city bureau detachment who had attended the Xiangzhou exchange meeting with him before. He might have the opportunity to ask him to teach him.
Just when Gu Ji was about to force his way in.
Suddenly there was a sparse noise from the side, and he turned his head alertly. It turned out to be an adult golden retriever stray dog!
This guy was wandering around the edge of the surveillance range, sniffing and looking, and the camera above his head was also following.
Gu Ji also noticed this.
An idea struck, and he tentatively stepped into the surveillance room.
As expected, the camera didn't turn around.
It wasn't until he was closer to the fence than a stray dog that the target switched to him.
"I see……"
Gu Ji grinned, took out the butter cheese he bought at the convenience store from his backpack, and threw it into the fence.
The stray dog must have been hungry for a long time. When it smelled the food, it immediately rushed forward madly. The dog's head was mostly buried in the fence. It stuck out its tongue and licked its nose repeatedly, and scratched the grass with its two paws anxiously.
While the camera is locked.
Gu Ji quickly ran to the fence from the blind spot, grabbed the pole with his backhand, put the heel of his right foot on the pole, used friction to push off, and climbed over easily, finishing in one go.
After your toes hit the ground.
The stray dog looked at Gu Ji behind the fence and let out a pitiful "whimper" twice.
"Thank you, Brother Dog!"
Gu Ji turned around and smiled, stood up and picked up the cheese on the grass, threw it out, and then quickly rushed to the parking lot of the park.
[Why are there still dogs? 】
[Where is the anchor now? I'm so anxious. Who knows? 】
[I seemed to hear heavy footsteps just now! 】
[I guess he won’t be so lucky this time. It’s been almost half an hour, but he still hasn’t found the bomb! 】
[The police must be watching the live broadcast now, the anchor cannot escape this time! 】
Because it took too long to enter the Volut park, many fans in the live broadcast room thought that Gu Ji had used up all his previous luck.
He only glanced at the phone and ignored it.
After carefully avoiding the surveillance field of view, Gu Ji found a landscape tree near the parking lot to hide. While changing his baseball uniform into professional attire, he carefully looked at the three buildings in front of him.
Based on observations of people flow and photos taken with the telephoto lens of mobile phones.
The tallest building in the center is the office building, with the most people coming in and out. The three-story short building on the left is the second, which is the employee canteen and entertainment and fitness area. The three-story short building closest to him on the right looks the smallest and deserted, with almost nothing. People come in and out, and the windows are all made of blue-coated privacy glass. It is most likely Volut's technology research and development center.
Gu Ji mentally assumed that the bomber had hatred for Volut.
So from the perspective of revenge, he will definitely set the bomb in a place that can shake the foundation of the company, either in the office building and kill all the branch executives in one fell swoop; or in the R\u0026D center, destroy the company's core data.
But it's not easy to blow up a 13-story office building.
There are generally three methods for professional construction blasting:
Directional dumping method, in-situ vertical collapse method and implosion method.
Take the simplest directional dumping method as an example. Its principle is to blast a triangular cutout in the lower part of the building, causing the building to topple in the direction of the cutout and disintegrate upon impact with the ground.
The amount of explosives consumed is terrifying, and the outer wall of the building must be cut in advance and filled with explosives to achieve the effect of directional blasting.
This is simply impossible to accomplish.
Unless the security at the Volut branch are all idiots.
so.
The possibility of blowing up the R\u0026D center is greater.
Gu Ji raised his wrist. It was less than half an hour before the next positioning exposure. Time was very tight.
He first looked along the outside of the R\u0026D center building to see if there were any signs of new wall painting.
The directional dumping method is rarely used for three-story short buildings, and the in-situ vertical collapse method and the implosion method are mostly used.
The former is to stuff explosives into the load-bearing structure at a certain height at the bottom of the building, and then explode it all instantly, causing it to collapse vertically and hit the ground to disintegrate.
But after going around in a circle, there are no traces on the outside.
Fortunately, Gu Ji met a scientific researcher in a white coat walking out of the R\u0026D center, who seemed to want to eat in the cafeteria.
Volut's outer security is already very tight, and the scientific research center must be even tighter.
There was no choice but to follow him, Gu Ji followed him to a surveillance blind spot, found the opportunity, and suddenly stretched out his hands, like a python hunting a rabbit, and quickly wrapped around the neck of the scientific researcher from behind.
The left hand clasps the inner elbow socket of the right arm and strangles directly into the naked body.
"Woo..."
The scientific researcher struggled desperately at first, but as Gu Ji's arms tightened, his resistance gradually became smaller, and finally his body trembled and quickly went limp.
This is Gu Ji's safest way to knock someone unconscious.
The same goes for the last tennis court cleaner.
Similar to the handsome operation in the movie of hitting the back of the neck with a knife to cause coma, it's not that it doesn't work, it's that it's too difficult to control.
If the force is light, it is not enough to block the blood supply to the brain; if the force is strong, it can easily hit the carotid sinus, causing a decrease in intracranial pressure, or causing displacement and fracture of the cervical vertebrae, compressing the cerebral blood vessels, which may cause intracranial hemorrhage in mild cases, or paralysis of the lower body in severe cases. .
In comparison, naked choke is much easier to control.
[Art requires cruelty: Maybe the first level is not luck. At least you are very experienced in bomb disposal experience, but this level is not so easy to pass. Let me remind you, you only have 20 minutes left]
[Holy shit, a terrorist is praising the anchor? 】
【I, Madara, would like to call you the strongest! 】
[Why do I seem to hear the sound of someone falling to the ground again? 】
[Could the anchor really commit a crime and kill someone? 】
[Probably not. The bomber didn't force the anchor to die if he didn't find the bomb, but didn't the anchor still risk his life to defuse the bomb without hesitation? If he really wanted to commit a crime, wouldn't it be the end of the world if he just ignored the bomb and concentrated on escaping from the police? ? 】
[Everyone is overthinking and just fainting. Maybe the anchor did it as a last resort to sneak into the bomb site! 】
…
Gu Ji received the vibration and glanced at his phone.
This Unabomber is a real talker.
However, this barrage also revealed some important information: the bomber should always determine his position and movement trajectory through the background.
It is estimated that when he faced the three buildings, he quickly selected the research center and walked around in a circle, which attracted the bomber's attention.
The bomb is probably right here!
He dragged the unconscious scientific researcher to a shady bush, took off his white coat and took off his employee pass.
"Jenkin Rowan, P3 Special Researcher..."
Although Gu Ji didn't know the internal employee levels of Volut, judging from the word "special", he should be at a high level.
Senior staff members often have greater access rights, which makes it easier for them to enter internal inspections.
So he sorted it out roughly according to Ron's body shape and appearance, then put on his white coat and walked to the research center.
Wait for the automatic privacy glass door to open.
In front of you is a small "T" shaped corridor, blocked by two rows of stainless steel access control gates. On the right is a solid wall, and on the left is a security room. You can observe the outside world at any time through transparent glass.
Under the gaze of the two security personnel, Gu Ji had to lower his head, pretending to be calm, took out Ron's ID and placed it on the magnetic stripe sensing area.
But I never thought that the moment I put the pass on.
Two white lights suddenly lit up on the gate next to it, and there was a camera.
Fuck you!
Do employees within the park still engage in facial recognition?
Just when Gu Ji was scolding his mother in his heart.
"Face recognition failed!"
"Toot! Toot! Toot!"
The gate system immediately flashed red and sounded a harsh alarm. Two security personnel immediately stood up. One of them, a bald white man, walked out of the security room with an evil look in his eyes: "I'm sorry, you don't seem to be Mr. Ron!"
"I……"
Just as Gu Ji was thinking about how to explain, he noticed from the corner of his eye that the other party's hand was touching his waist.
Is he going to pull out a gun? !
Gu Ji's eyes suddenly widened, his body felt like he was facing a powerful enemy, and he jumped forward like a leopard.
boom!
The moment he ran in front of the security personnel, a harsh sound broke through the air, and in just a flash, a bullet hit the glass door behind Gu Ji.
Wow!
Plop!
The sound of broken glass and the sound of two people falling to the ground sounded almost at the same time.
Without hesitation, Gu Ji grabbed the bald security guard's arms and rolled him over. In an instant, he pulled him and hid against the wall on the right.
While he was rolling, several more bullets penetrated the glass of the security room, all hitting the bald man's back.
The bullet penetrated the flesh like a spiral, and blood spattered everywhere in an instant.
Gu Ji didn't have time to think anything.
He had a brush with death before his eyes. His quick reaction made him shrink his head and huddle up. He grabbed the corpse with his left hand as a human shield, and quickly snatched the firearm from the bald man's hand with his right hand, Glock 17!
He raised the muzzle of the gun, pressed down the small trigger and the main trigger without hesitation, and fired quickly into the security room based on his feeling. Bang bang! Bang bang!
After two consecutive double shots, he spotted the opponent hiding from the corner of his eye.
Gu Ji pushed the body away, pressed his left hand on the ground, kicked off the wall like an evil tiger and rushed forward. He took the opportunity to roll under the security room opposite, stood up and pressed his back against the wall.
Just as he stood firm, a bullet shot out of the security window next to his ear and hit the bald body.
Gu Ji's pupils shrank.
Almost at the moment when the gunshot sounded, it suddenly bounced up, and the muzzle of the gun was instantly inserted into the window, bang bang!
The fire flashed, and blood splashed out of the window like arrows.
He stood up decisively and leaned against the broken window frame, raised the muzzle of the gun, and pointed it at the head and neck of the brown-haired security guard who fell to the ground in the room again, bang bang!
Confirmed death.
Just when Gu Ji thought the firefight was over, his ears suddenly buzzed instinctively, and a series of rapid footsteps came from the solid wall behind him. It was roughly estimated that there were at least four or five people. It turned out that there was a staircase on the right side of the "T" corridor!
grass!
His eyes turned red, he took off his backpack and hurriedly jumped into the security room through the window.
Ta-ta-ta-ta!
In an instant, countless bullets hit the wall outside the security room, and some of them hit the room through the window. They actually made a hole in the white wall, with broken bricks flying, showing how strong the impact was.
It's an assault rifle! !
The enemy's firepower was so intense that Gu Ji didn't even have a chance to breathe after landing. He quickly grabbed the [Poison Needle Trap] mine from his backpack and threw it out of the window behind him.
"Boom buzz——!"
The infrared sensor was triggered instantly, and after the sound of a detonating bomb was heard, there was a scream in the corridor.
Gu Ji did not dare to pause at all. He quickly stood up and picked up the other gun in the brown-haired security guard's hand and stuck it on his waist. He walked close to the wall to the door and cautiously stuck his head out.
At this moment, the corridor was already in chaos.
He first glanced at the long corridor on the left. There were about four or five rooms, which should be offices of scientific researchers.
In addition to screaming, there were also anxious calls for help on the phone.
From the "T"-shaped fork on the right, there was crazy laughter, and four black figures were faintly shaking.
Four of the five people were "broken" at once.
The poison needle trap's volley of 700 micro poison needles is indeed powerful.
"Locke! What's wrong with you? Claire! Bowen! You..."
The next second, a series of questions from a man came from the stairs on the right. Gu Ji stepped half-way out of the door, using the corners to move centimeter by centimeter until the corner of the stairs appeared in front of him. A man was looking at his companions. .
Without saying a word, he raised the gun and pulled the trigger wildly.
Bang bang bang!
"ah!"
The man screamed and hurriedly retreated into the stair wall.
Hit!
Gu Ji's eyes suddenly flashed with ferocious murderous intent, and he stomped on the ground with his back foot. His whole body immediately jumped out like a spring. He threw away the Glock and instantly picked up the black blue-patterned assault rifle that fell to the ground due to poisoning. It was an AR- 15!
Move the wall quickly.
Pull the barrel of the gun and check the remaining ammunition in the magazine.
Hold your shoulders, tilt your head forward, and lower your upper body to your cheeks.
A series of movements were completed in one go. Gu Ji was ready and tensed to the extreme. Like a cat that saw its prey, Gu Ji walked lightly close to the edge of the solid wall, which was the location of the stairs.
"Huh..."
The talent enhancement brought by the hearing mark allowed him to hear the sound of heavy breathing behind the wall.
Obviously, the enemy was seriously injured, and the pain had already made his breathing unsteady.
It can be determined by positioning the sound source.
On the landing!
He's squatting on me.
That's right, since you can't run away after being injured, it's better to retreat to the corner and shoot. On the premise that neither side has a shield, the only thing that matters is courage and hand speed.
Gu Ji narrowed his eyes.
He took out the lighter from his pocket, threw it away from the corner of the stairs.
"Farke!"
As if he was frightened out of his shadow by the evil [Poison Needle Trap] just now, a vicious curse was heard from the stairs.
Gu Ji's body moved, and without saying a word, he suddenly rushed out from the corner, aimed at the black shadow and pulled the trigger wildly, knocking him to the ground in an instant. To worry about it, he fired two more shots.
The moment his death was confirmed, footsteps suddenly came from behind.
Nervously, he turned around suddenly.
Aiming the gun, it's the poisoned security guard!
Looking at the opponent wearing a body armor and holding an AR-15 rifle, the black muzzle was always moving freely, and the poison would not last long, a flash of extreme calmness suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he raised the rifle.
Da da! Da da! Da da……
Blood blooms in the air like delicate flowers.
At that moment, the world in front of me was blood red!
[Kill 5 enemies: Get Private’s Telescopic Vision*1! 】
As the body system beeped, corpses fell one after another. Gu Ji suddenly thought of the last question Li Ruilin asked during the joint public security examination interview: "Are you murderous?"
He straightened up and lowered the gun.
Condensed the crazy blood hidden in his eyes.
It wasn't that he felt any sympathy.
Rather.
"call……"
I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Again:
To be kind to your enemies is to be cruel to yourself!
From the moment he entered the face recognition research center, the sound of gunfire never stopped. One enemy after another oppressed him so that he could not think too much, and even had no time to breathe.
If he hadn't just acquired the SOBR quick reaction knowledge, coupled with the improvement brought by the blue reaction mark, and the [Poison Needle Trap] mine, he would have died in this wave!
"From now on, you can't make a mistake again."
Gu Ji glanced at the bloody countdown in the upper right corner.
There are only about five hours left at this moment, which means that either he will die now, or he can only go one way.
Once you make a mistake and reload the file halfway, the remaining time is simply not enough to complete the level.
Don't forget, he has only completed one target mission now!
Gu Ji once again felt the urgency and pressure of the classic red heart mode, just like there was only the last half hour left in the college entrance examination, but the composition had not yet been written.
He quickly picked up the AR-15 rifle scattered on the ground, removed the magazine and stuffed it into his pocket.
Only then did he notice that in addition to the blue lines on the gun body, there was also a special blue arrow mark, and it was equipped with the English "Blue Arrow-Arrow15".
This should be a special version of AR made by a certain firearms company.
The AR-15 is the first rifle to use a 5.56 mm caliber, so it is also known as the pioneer of small-caliber rifles. The US military M16 is a modified version of it. The civilian version has canceled the speed machine and only has a semi-automatic single-shot mode. .
Due to the superior performance of the AR-15, after the patent expired, firearms factories in various countries began to produce imitations, and it is not uncommon for various magically modified versions to appear.
But Gu Ji didn't understand.
Why do security guards at a technology company's R\u0026D center need to be equipped with assault rifles, and then shoot without explanation without giving you any chance to explain?
Breaking into a research center and shooting someone?
There is definitely something wrong with Volut!
He immediately took out his mobile phone, but he didn't expect that the barrage in the live broadcast room had already exploded.
【I’m so anxious! What on earth happened! 】
[Please turn on the screen! 】
【Fuck! A gunfight really broke out! 】
[Is it the police or something? Who knows where the anchor is? 】
[Can the anchor say something? Still alive? 】
[Art requires cruelty: It’s unbelievable that you managed to survive their private security siege. It seems that your identity and resume are not true. Your father’s comrades once trained you? 】
[Damn it, the anchor survived? 】
【God! Have you noticed, private security! Face recognition failed! Could it be that the anchor infiltrated a certain company and took over the entire company by himself? 】
【Fake! This should be the strongest anchor in history, right? 】
[I heard that the anchor went crazy? 】
…
At this moment, because of the fierce gun battle just now, the number of people in the live broadcast room has soared to nearly ten thousand.
"What happened to this company? What is your relationship with them? Why did they kill me at all costs as soon as I came in? Did they think I was you?"
Due to the rules, Gu Ji did not dare to say Volut's name directly.
But this matter is not only related to the subsequent difficulty of the level, but also the truth about his father's death, and the "Crisis Management Game".
[Art requires cruelty: Hahaha, four questions in a row? Which one should I answer first? Forget it, I choose not to answer. I will tell you after you find the bomb and dismantle it. Pay attention to the time, you only have 17 minutes left! 】
[Holy shit, is there an inside story here? 】
[Kill the anchor when you come up? What kind of company is this? I think it's a gang, right? 】
【real or fake? 】
[It’s hard to tell, there’s no picture in the live broadcast, and it’s hard to tell who fired first just by looking at the sound! 】
[Whether it is true or not, the anchor can kill a group of people by himself. What kind of fighting ability does this have? Special forces? Isn't this live broadcast room a script? 】
…
The media with sensitive sense of smell also began to report wildly.
"Urgent interrupt. According to the front desk reporter, around 8:39 a.m. on September 8, a suspected mass shooting occurred in a certain company. Intensive exchanges of fire and explosions could be heard at the scene. There were rifles and powerful weapons. Weapons of destruction involved.”
"One of the people involved in the current shooting is one of the suspects in the bombing of the New York Subway Line 7 this morning. According to police insiders, an explosion also occurred at the US Open main venue in Flushing Park. No one was injured at the scene. The original The US Open competition has been cancelled, and the New York Police Department has dispatched the Counterterrorism Bureau SWAT team..."
It's not just the media.
The Brooklyn Branch Command Center, the Queens North Branch Command Center, the New York Police Department Headquarters, and even the FBI New York Branch were all shaken at this moment. Countless police officers, SWAT officers, police cars, assault vehicles, and helicopters were dispatched to quickly surround the area. Volut Technology Park!
Gu Ji himself returned to the security room, picked up his backpack, stuffed all the organized ammunition into his side pockets, and then used his gun to explore the location of the bomb along the wall.
Since the bomber refused to speak.
Then he could only defuse the bomb first, and finally find a way to dig this guy out and question him personally.
Walk all the way there.
Gu Ji did not see any traces of bombs or any suspicious objects on the outer wall, so it seemed that there was only one last way to blow it up:
Implosion method!
Its main principle is to sequentially destroy the load-bearing structure inside the building, causing the peripheral components to tip inward, collide with each other, break and collapse.
The implosion method is widely used in the United States, but the steps are very complicated.
Most importantly, multi-point delayed blasting means there will be a lot of bombs!
"I don't know if it's too late..."
Gu Ji looked at the time on his wrist and wished that one second could be broken into two seconds.
When passing by the laboratory, the scientific researchers saw him squatting on the ground in panic and begging for mercy, begging him to show mercy!
"It was your security who shot me as soon as they came up. I was just defending myself. Don't worry, I won't hurt any innocent people. There is probably an IED remote-controlled bomb in this building now. For everyone's safety, please answer truthfully. Have you seen anything suspicious recently, or tell me the structural diagram of the fire protection building!"
Gu Ji said this, but his back was never exposed to others, and his index finger was always pressed against the trigger of the rifle.
To prevent Lao Liu from secretly attacking.
Everyone shook their heads, but a female researcher pointed to the bathroom at the end of the corridor, "The structural diagram of the fire protection building is in the bathroom!"
Building structure diagram for bathroom?
What the hell kind of operation is this?
But Gu Ji quickly rushed into the bathroom, and sure enough, he found the building's structural diagram on the wall of the public wash basin.
The reason he looked for structural diagrams was simple.
Blasting can be considered as the reverse engineering of structural engineering. Structural emphasis is on preventing progressive collapse, while blasting is just the opposite.
Controlling the collapse process is the key to blasting, but actual collapse is a strongly non-linear process and is generally difficult to predict. Therefore, if the bomber wants to destroy Volut's research center, he must accurately place the bomb according to the key load-bearing points of the building.
"found it……"
Fortunately, Gu Ji not only mastered blasting skills, but also had knowledge about earthquake building disaster prevention and accidental collapse. This is the benefit of multi-field learning, which enabled him to master a certain foundation in architecture and be able to form linkages at critical moments.
He quickly ran to the third office on the first floor.
The two researchers were so frightened that they hid aside, leaving Gu Ji to walk to the left wall. This is the main load-bearing wall of the entire building. If the bomber really uses the implosion method, the key bomb will definitely be placed here.
He came to the filing cabinet and opened the first cabinet door. There were some documents inside, while the second one was locked.
"Someone open it!"
Gu Ji didn't dare to shoot directly for fear of causing too much shock and detonating a bomb.
After shouting, a middle-aged researcher with dark brown skin who looked like an Indian came over and nervously took out the key and inserted it into the door lock.
The moment you open the cabinet door.
The Indian's expression changed suddenly. He saw a large ball of yellow plastic explosive stuck to the wall of the cabinet, weighing at least seven or eight kilograms. With a "di" sound, the IED circuit board screen suddenly lit up with a red light and counted down:
5:00!
[Goal: Find at least two bombs buried in the area successfully! 】
Yesterday, I did some minor repairs on the picture. Recently, the multi-line narrative has made my CPU almost burn out. I always make mistakes and forget to write down the first task. The goal has been completed and has been changed. If there is anything I haven’t seen when I subscribed before two o’clock in the morning, You can see it after refreshing, sorry!
