Chapter 35 Harbor Base

Information about the meteorite on October 13, the collection situation, the time and place of transportation, etc. were quickly transmitted to the computer on Carlos' desk. The information was presented in the form of an encrypted file. After receiving the file, Carlos entered the password and the file was Open.

Carlos entered a certain code number on the document, and a piece of shipping information popped up. The information showed the location and date of arrival of the goods. After reading it carefully, Carlos raised his head in surprise and said to himself , " That's it ." Today ... oh my god ... he's going to get the second meteorite."

Carlos held the phone in his hand and was about to make a call when he suddenly hesitated.

"What? What happened?" Auston couldn't help but said looking at Carlos's unusual expression.

Carlos put away the phone and shut down the computer again, and then said to Auston , " I have something urgent and I need to go out. I have to meet with that guy. You first write a document report about Irving's inquiry." To the President, I will contact you if there is any new information."

"Hey man, I gotta know what's going on, Carlos ... Carlos ... "

Auston said with a confused look on his face, but Carlos left in a hurry before he could answer.

At this time, in a coffee shop not far from the Triangle Building, Li Ming was sitting quietly, with his mobile phone flat on the table in front of him, holding a cup of coffee in his hand, looking in the direction of the building, as if waiting for something. generally.

A moment later, a figure hurriedly walked out of the door of the Triangle Building. This person was Carlos. Li Ming took a sip of the coffee in the cup, and the mobile phone screen on the desktop suddenly lit up automatically, and a series of numbers appeared on it. appeared on the screen, but it was not dialed. Instead, it was sent directly after editing an English message.

These operations on the mobile phone seemed to be completed by himself, but they were all under the control of Li Ming's brain.

Carlos in the distance had just walked to his car when he suddenly stopped, reached out and took out the mobile phone from his pocket. After taking a look, his eyes suddenly looked towards the cafe opposite.

After careful inspection, a man near the window of the cafe came into Carlos's sight. After a few more glances, Carlos opened the car door, started the vehicle and drove over.

Li Ming put down the cup in his hand, picked up his phone and left directly. The people around him didn't pay much attention to Li Ming's existence, but there was a figure at that position just now, but in the blink of an eye, the figure had disappeared, as if he had suddenly disappeared. Average.

After walking out of the cafe, Li Ming came to the roadside. The red car slowly stopped. Carlos waved to Li Ming through the car window. The next moment, Li Ming had already sat in the passenger seat.

Although he knew about Li Ming's special ability, Carlos was still startled by this sudden appearance. He shrunk and said nothing, but drove the vehicle into the street again.

Carlos was driving the car and looked at Li Ming from time to time, as if he was hesitant to speak.

Li Ming tilted his head, looking at Carlos's head with one eye, as if he was flipping through some documents, and whispered , " Tonight at Newwater Port ... the second meteorite ... "

Carlos could feel Li Ming's actions, as if these messages were written on his body. His body suddenly became stiff and motionless, and he was even a little worried that his casual movements would affect the other party.

Li Ming's behavior invisibly gave people a sense of fear and depression.

"You ... do you know Owen?"

Carlos plucked up the courage to ask.

Li Ming turned his head back to the front and said , " Like me, he is a parasite of alien life, but the difference is that I still have human blood and consciousness, and he has been completely controlled by alien life." "Didn't you see him just now?"

"Ah ... yes, I just ... I just want to know what we should do next to be more beneficial to us. For example ... we should give those meteorites to him, or to you."

Carlos said carefully.

Li Ming's face was expressionless, as if he didn't listen to what the other party just said, but he replied , " You have no right to make a choice. Your military in country U is making a huge mistake. Irving will drain all the available resources on the earth." The energy of the meteorite must be handed over to me. "

After hearing these words, Carlos's face slowly darkened.

"I know what you want, but as I told you, knowing too much is not good for you." Li Ming said.

"Yes, I know you and Owen both want to get the meteorite. What I mean is, what will happen after you get the meteorite ... "

Carlos said carefully.

Li Ming had already seen through these thoughts and problems of his, but in the other party's brain information, Li Ming only found information about the most recent meteorite. The other meteorites were either still being collected or had not been transported back to country U. He continued to communicate with them. Carlos's contact is still necessary for Li Ming.

Li Ming looked at the distance outside the car and began to say , " Alien life will advance after receiving meteorites, becoming a higher-level civilized life and possessing more powerful power, but it also requires a lot of energy support. This energy demand is devastating to the planet ... "

Carlos licked his lips, looked forward for a while, then looked at Li Ming, and said , " So ... whether the meteorite is in your hand or Owen's hand, the result is the same."

Li Ming shook his head and said , " No, Owen is no longer a human being. He will mercilessly take away any energy he needs. But I am still a human being. I will find a more suitable way to solve the problems between me and the earth. I will deal with it." The harm to humans is minimized.”

Carlos didn't say anything else, he just drove fast on the highway. To the east of City S was Newwater Port, and it would take several hours to get there from the city. Carlos kept increasing his speed, hoping to get there before Irving.

The sky gradually darkened, night fell quietly, and the Port of Newwater was quiet. This was a military port and ordinary people were not allowed to enter without authorization. Carlos stopped the vehicle in a small town a few kilometers away from the port.

It was still far away, but the lights of the harbor could already be seen vaguely.

"That's Newwater Port. My car can't continue to get closer. You can only rely on yourself for the rest. To be honest, I don't know whether what I did today is right or wrong, whether it is for U country or the entire human race. ”

Carlos looked at Li Ming beside him, and then at the dim lights in the distance.

Li Ming said nothing, opened the car door and left. The town was dark, the doors of the houses and shops were all closed, and it was extremely quiet. The clear night sky was full of shining stars, and the port in the distance looked like a mirage, and the lights seemed a little dim.

There is only one road here, and the destination is at the end of it. The autumn wind keeps caressing his cheeks, feeling a little cold. Li Ming's figure is like a flashing illusion, and soon disappears from Carlos' sight.

Carlos' right hand repeatedly gripped the steering wheel, his eyes kept looking into the distance, and after being dazed for a few seconds, he turned the car around and left the town. Carlos knew that he could not stay here for long, as there were still many things waiting for him to deal with when he returned.

Li Ming continued to go deeper along the road, getting closer and closer to the port, and his vision became clearer. A few hundred meters deep into the port, a fence appeared, with guard posts and sentries. Further ahead was a military restricted area.

The fence corresponding to the highway is an interceptor. Any vehicle that wants to pass must be inspected. Four soldiers are walking back and forth at the door, sometimes communicating with each other.

'call'

A gust of wind blew by, and something seemed to flash by in the bright light. One of the soldiers looked back and forth along the road. There was nothing unusual, so he didn't pay attention.

Li Ming has already entered the port. There are not many containers here. Unlike ordinary cargo ports, this time should have been very calm and there were no work tasks, but today is different. An important ship will arrive at this port.

There is only one place for non-military ships to berth, which is the southernmost part of the port. The place there is vacant, while other places are already filled with various warships and even aircraft carriers. These military ships need to return to the port after long voyages. Perform maintenance.

The maintenance cost of ships is high, and military ships are even more unusual. Even at night, a small number of people are working overtime. At this time, the southernmost berth has been blocked, and many soldiers have gathered there, as if waiting. What.

Li Ming's figure flashed back and forth between buildings and vehicles, and the information he wanted entered his brain. After a few flashes, Li Ming had arrived near a military vehicle.

Directly in front of Li Ming is a two-story building. There are many such buildings in the port. They are all office areas. Directly in front of the building is the location of the port. Li Ming looked at the time and saw another flash. Moved to the vicinity of the building.

Many soldiers were patrolling back and forth, but Li Ming did not act rashly. He was just waiting for the arrival of the ship.

A moment later, a ship was slowly approaching on the dark sea in the distance. The lights on the ship could already be seen in the port. Many people suddenly walked out of the two-story building, but most of them were wearing military uniforms. There is only one person who is special, and that person is Irving.

Li Ming sensed this information, pushed his legs hard, jumped up from where he was, and came to the roof of the building. There was no light on the roof, it was pitch black, but he had a better view. He took a quick glance at the distance. The ship has arrived at the port and is preparing to dock.

Someone on the shore commanded and used communication equipment to communicate with the ship. After some operations, the ship finally successfully docked. The ship stopped and anchored. The channel connecting the port slowly opened, and a hatch more than two meters wide was filled with water. The young soldiers walked out of the boat carrying large boxes one by one.

There was no movement in the crowd where Owen was. These people just watched quietly from a distance, and sometimes said something. Fortunately, the distance was not very far, and Li Ming could still capture some information.

After a while, more than a dozen boxes had been lifted out and piled on the open space of the port. At the same time, a special box caught Li Ming's attention, because the other boxes were basically made of wood. Although he didn't know what kind of goods they were. , but the outer body is roughly the same. This new box is made of metal and requires two people to lift it.

Even though it was carried by six people, they were very careful and walked very slowly, as if the weight of the box was not light. The six soldiers carried the box until it was under the light not far in front of the building before placing it on the ground. At the same time, an officer on the ship He was talking to an officer next to Owen.

Although he couldn't sense the contents of the box, Li Ming had captured accurate information from their conversation. It was this box, that's right!
