Chapter 150 Martial Law in the City
Almost immediately, Monkey King and Little White Dragon both jumped out of their hibernation badges and stretched their necks to take a look at their new partner.
Monkey Brother frowned after looking at her: "So ugly, but also a little silly, I think she's quite cute."
The little white dragon raised his chin: "Too ugly, not as good-looking as me."
"But the master likes it, and think on the bright side, now you are not the youngest one, you have three junior brothers."
“That sounds like a good thing.”
………………
The two pets chattered in an encrypted conversation that no one could understand except Chu Yi. Chu Yi, like the old baboon in The Lion King, lifted the piglet above his head.
"Since you are so silly, I will call you Second Senior Brother from now on."
As soon as Chu Yi finished speaking, the little white dragon immediately quit and ran to Chu Yi's feet and pulled up his shoelaces with his mouth: "I was here first, why is he the second brother? Shouldn't he be the third brother?"
Monkey Brother looked at it for a while, then advised: "It's probably based on the number of toes. This little piglet has two toes on its hoof, so it's the second brother."
The little white horse said unconvincedly: "According to this arrangement, I should be the eldest and you should be the fifth!"
Monkey King was stunned for a moment, then he clenched his five fingers into a fist bigger than a casserole, and placed it in front of Little White Dragon: "Look at this treasure, and then repeat what you just said."
Xiao Bailong opened his mouth, knowing that he was no match for the eldest senior brother. If he spoke out, he would suffer a great loss. So he dejectedly found a corner and went to draw circles.
Chu Yi saw that Xiao Bailong was so emo, so he immediately walked over to comfort him, "Don't be angry, Xiao Bailong, you have a very special place in my heart, so you are not included in the ranking.
If I sign contracts with other pets in the future, they will also be called Third Senior Brother and Fourth Senior Brother, but you will be the only one called Little White Dragon."
"Really?" The little white dragon's eyes widened, as if he came alive in an instant.
"It's really easy to fool." Monkey Brother watched from the side and grinned.
He had tasted similar chicken soup for the soul more than ten years ago, but unfortunately he is not a person who is easily swayed by emotions, so chicken soup has never been of much use to him.
But this trick is quite effective against Xiaobailong. He was immediately calmed down after this verbal attack.
"Let's go up first. This is not a place to stay for long."
Lin Siyao came close to Chu Yi and whispered.
Chu Yi suddenly remembered that a murder had occurred up there, and the next period of time might not be peaceful, so he had to return to the city first.
Levisi was already impatient, and he was eager to know what was going on up there.
After taking the hibernation badges back to the three pets, the three of them took the elevator back to the ground.
Levisi's assistant was already guarding the elevator exit, looking sweaty, and the situation seemed to be even more serious than he had imagined.
"How many people died and how much was the loss?" Levisi did not avoid Chu Yi and Lin Siyao and asked the assistant directly.
"All the employees responsible for running the energy room died, along with three security guards, a total of nine people.
As for the losses, all the superpower cores were taken away, not a single one was left."
The assistant reported the situation at a very fast speed, and Levisi felt a severe headache after listening to it.
The superpower core can be said to be the most valuable thing in the entire company. It is a renewable battery made with the power of emperor-level pets. With them, it is possible to continuously generate superpowers that can allow pets to hatch early.
The market price of one such superpower core is at least over 7 million US dollars. The company gave him a total of 12 cores for this incubation station. The loss from this plus the resettlement allowance for the employees is nearly 100 million!
This month's turnover is just over 200 million, so it looks like there's no need to think about getting a year-end bonus this year.
"Check the surveillance!" Levisi put his hands on his hips, pointed at the air and cursed, "I want to see who the hell is that has the guts to go after me!"
The assistant handed over a tablet computer, which contained the surveillance video of the power supply room at the time of the crime. The camera was very advanced and the angle was very correct, so the perpetrator's clothing could be clearly seen.
There are a total of eight murderers appearing this time, all of them wearing robes and headscarves on their faces. People in only one region in the world dress like this.
"People from the Middle Eastern refugee camps?" Levisi was so angry that his face twisted. "I was kind enough to provide jobs to those bastards and even gave their elderly and children free lunches, and this is how they treat me?!"
The assistant looked at the furious boss and cautiously reminded him, "It may not be them who did it. Maybe someone deliberately impersonated them?"
Levisi said with a gloomy face: "Let me ask you, when this group of people came in, did they go straight to the energy supply room or did they first ask someone about the situation before going to the energy supply room?"
"We went directly to the power supply room... You mean there's a traitor?" The assistant was no fool and reacted immediately.
Levisi sneered: "Then the situation is very clear, either there are some traitors in my company who gave away the position of the energy supply room.
Or maybe it was these refugees who were doing cleaning work in the company who showed their fellow insects the way!
No matter what the situation is, I will never let these people go. Deschamps, call the police immediately and tell them not to send ordinary police, but Paris Cavalry Guards!"
Deschamps replied: "It has been reported. They said they will send someone over as soon as possible to protect the scene."
"Well, keep an eye on the people in the company now. If anyone shows suspicious behavior, arrest them immediately and start the interrogation right away when the police arrive."
After Le Weixi finished speaking, he turned around and said to Chu Yi and Lin Siyao with an apologetic look on his face: "I am so sorry for making you two laugh. It is such a coincidence. There has never been such a thing before, and today you two have run into it."
"It doesn't matter." Chu Yi shook his head. "If there's nothing else, we can just leave, right?"
Levisi smiled and replied, "Of course, as you two distinguished guests, you will definitely not have anything to do with this case. Just leave. I am busy here, so I won't see you off."
Chu Yi and Lin Siyao didn't waste any time and just turned around and left.
It is obvious that this is not a simple robbery and murder case, but also involves refugees from the Middle East.
Outside is a Middle Eastern refugee camp with hundreds of thousands of people living there. If things really get turbulent, who knows what will happen.
It seemed that this place was about to become a place of trouble, and staying here for even a second longer would be full of unknown risks.
"Go back to the city, Nolson."
After Lin Siyao got in the car, he said to the driver.
However, Noelson did not start the car. He just turned his head and said solemnly: "I'm sorry, Miss Lin, we may not be able to go back."
Lin Siyao immediately frowned: "Why?" Noelson said with a bad look on his face: "There was a terrorist attack in the city, and a considerable number of terrorists are fleeing everywhere. In order not to let these terrorists escape, but also to avoid letting more terrorists into the city.
All the roads in the city are now blocked. The roads are blocked. It’s just that this place is far away, so I can’t hear any movement. ”
"Such a big thing happened!" Lin Siyao took out his mobile phone in surprise and searched for the news.
Chu Yi's actions were even faster, and he had already found relevant news and videos.
Something did happen in the city. A large shopping mall and a middle school were attacked almost at the same time, and more than two thousand people were held hostage by the criminals.
The school has been rescued, but the number of casualties is unknown.
The criminals in the mall had deployed a considerable number of manpower, and many hostages had bombs tied to their bodies. The police did not dare to attack by force, so the situation remained in a stalemate.
It is worth mentioning that although the school was captured, many of the gangsters who attacked the school escaped and are currently roaming around the city. No one knows who their next target will be. The police can only send a large number of police forces to patrol and investigate, but very few gangsters have been caught so far.
These are the official information revealed, and more attack footage can be seen on Tiktok.
Some were taken by nearby residents, and some were taken by hostages in the mall.
Some videos also captured the tragic scenes after the hostages and security guards were killed, but they were quickly deleted because they were too bloody.
However, these videos also told everyone that these criminals were definitely not ordinary bandits, and their methods were extremely cruel. If the police did not handle the situation properly, the lives of the thousands of hostages in the mall would probably be in danger.
In addition, there is a large group of such cruel bandits hiding in the streets and alleys, who may jump out at any time to launch indiscriminate attacks.
And the most worrying thing is that no one knows if there are only these two groups of people. What if there are other bandits who have not yet taken action?
In short, everyone in Paris is in danger now. Businesses have basically closed, and people with brains have gone back home and dare not stay on the streets anymore.
So far no organization has come forward to claim responsibility for the incident, but in the news, leaders have spoken out and appealed to the gangsters in the mall, asking them to remain calm and not to harm the hostages, and that they can raise any conditions and discuss any issues.
However, the mall remained silent, and the criminals had not made any demands since the attack.
As soon as the police get close, they will be hit by a volley of bullets.
This is roughly the situation. Until the police completely control all the bandits, the checkpoints into the city will probably not be opened.
"So we're going to spend the night here in the suburbs?" Lin Siyao put down his phone and his expression became serious.
For some reason, she always felt that this series of events seemed to converge into a bigger conspiracy.
But there are too few clues at the moment, and she can't figure out what the conspiracy behind this is.
Noelson smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry, Miss Lin. I have just contacted the owner of the family. He said he would find a way to send someone to pick us up."
Chu Yi asked in confusion: "Isn't the road blocked? Even if you can go through the back door, you can't get in."
Nolson replied: "If it's not possible on the ground, we can go by air or water. The Bonaparte family has plenty of helicopters and ships in Paris."
As soon as he finished speaking, Noelson's cell phone rang. He answered the call and said a few words, and his face suddenly darkened.
Just by seeing this expression, Chu Yi and Lin Siyao knew what was going on.
As expected, after hanging up the phone, Noelson turned around and said awkwardly, "I'm sorry, both of you. My family said that the whole city is under martial law and no one is allowed to leave the city. It seems that we really can't go back in the short term."
"It doesn't matter. At worst, I can just stay in the incubator for one night. The environment there is pretty good anyway." After Lin Siyao finished speaking, he lowered his head and began typing quickly, not knowing who he was chatting with.
Chu Yi took over the conversation: "In that case, please turn around and go back to the hatchery. It's almost night time, and who knows what monsters will come out."
"You're so polite." Noelson said with an unnatural smile.
Just now he was confidently bragging to others about how powerful the Bonaparte family is, but in the end he can't go back.
Fortunately, Miss Lin’s friend is not a mean person, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.
Soon, Knowlson drove back to the hatchery.
Several security guards immediately surrounded them with serious expressions.
Lin Siyao rolled down the window and said to the security guards, "Don't be nervous. We are the customers just now. We came back because something happened on the way."
At this time, Levixi, who heard the noise, rushed out of the company. When he saw Lin Siyao, he was puzzled: "Ms. Lin, why are you back?"
"Mr. Levisi, I have some bad news for you."
Lin Siyao and Chu Yi got out of the car, looked at Levisi and said, "Something big has happened in the city right now. Unknown elements have attacked shopping malls and schools. The whole city is under martial law now. No one is allowed to enter or leave. Not only can we not go back, but the police probably can't come to you either."
"Is there such a thing?" Levisi was shocked.
He had been watching the surveillance video and reporting the losses to the headquarters. He didn't expect that such a big case would happen in the city.
"In that case, you two should stay at our company for now. It won't be too late to go back once the city is safe."
Levisi said as he walked away with a sigh: "But with something like that happening here, I don't know if it will be peaceful tonight."
Lin Siyao smiled and said, "Mr. Levisi, don't worry too much about this. In most cases, we can protect our own safety."
Levisi nodded: "That would be the best, of course. We will definitely provide security for you two."
After the deal was done, Chu Yi and Lin Siyao returned to the presidential suite they had been in.
"It looks like we have to spend the night here." Chu Yi walked to the bedroom and raised his eyebrows: "But there seems to be only one bed in the room, what should we do? How about I draw a line, we each take half, whoever crosses the line will be worse than a beast!"
Lin Siyao, who was typing with his head down, glanced at Chu Yi and said, "What are you thinking about? I must be sleeping on the bed and you are sleeping on the sofa."
Chu Yi sighed: "You know, I have been having nightmares for the past three years. Who knows what will happen if I sleep on the sofa? What if I sleepwalk in the middle of the night..."
"Don't even think about it, Da-Mee!"
Lin Siyao crossed his arms, leaving Chu Yi no room for negotiation.
