1187 The Nonexistent Negative Twenty-first Floor The elevator went straight down the Pan-Asia Cooperation Building.Wan Peng stood in the elevator and looked at the floor number decreasing, gloom was all over his face.
Bad news came from one after another.
Sura was not caught, and the bodies of several Men in Black were found in the trash can outside North Street. The card that flowed out of the auction was not recovered, and the Men in Black sent out to pursue that card likely would not come back either. Now, the Russians had detonated nukes underground. Not only did they demolish the blockage that took them six months to build ten years ago between the intersection of Lines 35 and 27, but they also collapsed the giant wall that was over half-a-kilometer long.
As the giant wall fell, Pingan Street was forced to be on the edge of survival.
Even if it survived today, what about tomorrow? What about the day after tomorrow?
The tens of meters high wall was not built in a day or two. At the start when Leader Ding and the other Survivor Alliance heads joined together, the wall took them over six years to build. In addition, they only became prosperous after they completed this wall and moved into Pingan Street.
Now, without interference, it would take more than half a year to fix this wall.
If CCCP invaded them during this time…
He could not wait any longer.
Or, the leaders of the entire Survivors Alliance could not wait any longer.
After voting, they unanimously passed Plan B-
Start Line 0 ahead of time.
If there was a powerful weapon of mass destruction inside, all problems would be solved.
In the elevator, Wan Peng edited several short messages with his EP and sent it to his subordinates. He made detailed arrangements for all matters over the next three days.
The elevator crossed the negative twentieth floor but did not stop, it continued down.
After five minutes, the elevator finally stopped a few hundred meters below ground at the negative twenty-first floor not shown on the elevator.
Yes, the well-known Pan-Asia Cooperation Building did not just have a negative twentieth floor. By pressing the floor in a specific order, an emergency evacuation procedure would be initiated. It would allow the key personnel in the elevator to move beyond the negative twentieth floor and into the negative twenty-first floor hundreds of meters below.
The negative twenty-first floor of the Pan-Asia Cooperation Building was located outside of Line 27. The subway could be accessed via a special passage not open to the public. The entrance to the legendary Line 0 was located inside Line 2!
Wan Peng heard the secret of the negative twenty-first floor from a former senior official of Pan-Asia Cooperation before he boarded the ship. The news of the legendary Line 0 was also from the same person.
But unfortunately, even at his level, he was unable to learn about the contents hidden in Line Zero.
Ten years ago, after he learned about the secret of the negative twenty-first floor, Wan Peng, Ding Liwei and the others discussed and immediately started the transformation of Line 27. They began moving explosives underground and it took a full six months to collapse the intersection of Line 27 and Line 35.
Now, because of those Russians, their efforts from ten years ago were all in vain.
After Wan Peng left the elevator, more than a dozen Men in Black waited at the door, and Lu Sen stepped forward half a step and respectfully said.
Boss.
Wan Peng nodded to Lu Sen.
How are the preparations going?
We’re ready,
Lu Sen replied.
Wan Peng nodded and walked down the stairs.
At the end of the stairs was a small platform. Next to the platform, there was an unnumbered mini version of maglev train.
It was mini because it only had four compartments in total.
At the door of the train, the man in the windbreaker was carrying a suitcase. From his impatient look and the way he constantly examined his watch, he had clearly been waiting for a long time.
You are late.
Su Xiang said as he watched Wan Peng walk towards him.
Took a bit longer to get down than expected.
I hope that Leader Ding can wait for a bit longer,
Su Xiang shrugged.
Well he has to wait regardless, the card is with me,
Wan Peng said expressionlessly.
Don’t talk nonsense, let’s get moving.
The group boarded the maglev train.
The track that had been silent for many years was turned back on. The signal lit up.
Soon, with the efforts of the two drivers, the train slowly moved and then began to accelerate…
As he was sitting beside the window and staring at the darkness outside, Wan Peng suddenly laughed.
What’s wrong?
Su Xiang, who sat across from him, asked.
Nothing, just that it is very interesting.
Oh?
I didn’t expect that the escape passage those bastrd officials didn’t get to use are now being used by us.
When he stared into the unfathomable darkness, Wan Peng grinned.
Soon, the train arrived at Line 2, and Wan Peng’s unsettled heart finally relaxed.
To be honest, he was really afraid of the Russians who did not follow common sense and decided to create another hole in the wall of Line 27. If that happened, then it would not be Ding Liwei waiting for him, but the CCCP tanks.
But now it seemed that his concern was irrational.
Although he did not know where the Russian went, at least they were not on Line 2.
However, just as he was completely relaxed, an alarm began to ring in the train, and the [Warning] logo replaced the speed on the holographic screen. With a series of deafening screeching sounds, the train suddenly slowed down and eventually stopped.
Letting go of the tightly gripped handle, Su Xiang looked at the holographic screen and frowned.
Smoke detector?
I’m going to see who smoked.
Wan Peng stood up in a gloomy manner.
I’m afraid that no one smoked,
Su Xiang quickly stopped him. He looked extremely serious.
Someone hacked into the smoke alarm system of the train and started the emergency braking procedure.
At this time, the door opened, and Lu Sen came in, confused.
Boss, what’s the situation?
I wanted to ask you,
Wan Peng said with gloom in his eyes,
Someone triggered the smoke alarm.
Lu Sen was sweating and clarified.
Boss, the boys are all in their seats, no one dares to smoke now.
Wan Peng did not respond but looked at Su Xiang.
What should we do now?
Security permissions are in the hands of the hackers. If they can stop the train once, then they can stop it a second time. It doesn’t make sense for us to stay here,
Su Xiang sighed and stood up.
Let’s walk. It’s not far.
Wan Peng nodded.
It’s the only solution.
The driver tried to start the train for the last time, but it did not work.
In desperation, the group had to abandon the train.
The two Men in Black next to Wan Peng stepped forward, took out burning rods, and ignited them. The rods made the tunnel look less dark.
Like this, the group walked along the magnetic levitation track line toward the other end of the tunnel.
However, at this moment, there was a sound of bullets being fired.
Lu Sen was quick to react as he pushed his boss. A silver light passed through Wan Peng’s previous position. He only heard Su Xiang’s agonizing voice behind him as Su Xiang covered his chest before collapsing.
Just barely missing death, Wan Peng’s heart pounded so fast that it was about to stop.
Due to the unexpected situation, and the two Men in Black immediately tossed their burning rods to the front. At the same time, they stood in front of their boss, took out two submachine guns from under their suit, and locked in.
The burning rods spewed orange-red sparks. The sound of the rods burning was so clear in the empty tunnel.
The silence of death lingered in everyone’s mind.
Just then, there were footsteps in front of them.
A figure casually walked out from the dark tunnel before it stopped at the edge of darkness.
Wan Peng’s pupils contracted.
Who is it!
