Rebirth with a Space to Counterattack and Abuse the Scumbag

Chapter 33 Revisiting the Abandoned Factory: The Mystery Remains Unsolved

The commotion outside the police station turned out to be a false alarm. Some unlucky guy got drunk and insisted that he was the reincarnation of Buddha and was coming to the police station to save all living beings.

I suppressed a laugh and followed Gong Lin away from this place of trouble.

Stepping into this abandoned factory again, a sinister feeling immediately hits you, and the air is filled with a pungent musty smell, which makes you feel very uncomfortable.

"This place is eerily gloomy, even scarier than my grandma's old house," I muttered to myself, rubbing my arms.

Gong Lin didn't speak, but his sharp eyes scanned his surroundings like a leopard hunting its prey.

I have to admit, this guy is actually quite handsome when he gets serious.

We carefully followed the route we had taken before and walked in.

When I reached the place where I had discovered the secret door last time, I suddenly stopped.

"Wait!" I pointed to an inconspicuous scratch on the wall. "This is the mark I made last time, but now... it's gone."

My heart sank.

The disappearance of the markings means that someone has been here, and it's very likely that they already know about our actions.

"It seems we're being watched." Gong Lin's tone also became serious.

"When soldiers come, we'll block them; when water comes, we'll dam it! What's there to be afraid of!" I shrugged, trying to sound relaxed, but inside I was pounding with anxiety.

As I walked further in, I noticed that some of the small items that I had deliberately placed there were also gone.

This further confirms my suspicion: our every move is being monitored!

"Damn it!" I couldn't help but curse under my breath. It felt like someone had given me a cheat code in a game, which was incredibly infuriating.

Gong Lin suddenly stopped and fixed his gaze on a patch of shadow ahead.

"Someone's there!" he said in a low voice, pulling me behind him in a protective stance.

My heart was in my throat as I stared nervously at the shadow, feeling as if the air itself had frozen.

"Come out!" Gong Lin shouted sternly.

A figure slowly emerged from the shadows...

"Secretary Lin?!" Gong Lin exclaimed in surprise.

Secretary Lin wore a sinister smile as he slowly and methodically straightened the wrinkles on his suit.

"Gong Lin, how have you been?" He spoke in a flippant tone, as if everything was under his control.

"What...what do you want to do?" I asked, trying to remain calm, but my palms were already sweating.

Secretary Lin didn't answer my question, but instead gave Gong Lin a meaningful look, and then...

"It seems you're all a little too curious."

Secretary Lin did not answer my question, but gave Gong Lin a meaningful look and then smiled contemptuously.

"Do you really think you can find anything out?"

This guy's smile is so irritating!

I clenched my fists, really wanting to rush up and punch him.

Fortunately, Gong Lin pulled me back in time and whispered, "Calm down." He turned to look around, his brows furrowed, as if he was thinking about something.

A moment later, he suddenly raised his head, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

“Come with me.” He took my hand, bypassed Secretary Lin, and ran straight into the depths of the factory.

Although I was completely confused, I still chose to believe him and followed closely behind him.

"Wait! Where are you going?" Secretary Lin's voice came from behind, tinged with panic.

Gong Lin ignored him and quickened her pace.

As I ran after him, I couldn't help but ask curiously, "What did you find?"

“There was something wrong with the road we took before,” he replied briefly. “I remember last time when we went around a corner, there was a brick on the wall with a missing piece, but just now, that brick was intact.”

I was secretly surprised. How could they have discovered that?

This guy's observation skills are amazing!

It's practically a human scanner!

It seems I definitely made the right choice in following the right person!

After making several turns, we shook off Secretary Lin and arrived at a corner piled with miscellaneous items.

Gong Lin stopped and pointed to an iron box on the ground, saying, "This is it."

Just as I was about to reach for it, Gong Lin stopped me.

"Don't rush." ​​He carefully observed his surroundings, then used an iron rod to clear away the debris around the box before carefully picking it up.

"Better safe than sorry," he said as he opened the box.

Inside the box, lying quietly, was a photograph.

"What's this?" I leaned closer to take a look. The photo showed a man, and his back view looked somewhat familiar...

Wait, this isn't...

"Crack!" A soft sound came from behind, like the sound of a tree branch breaking.

Gong Lin whirled around, his eyes sharp as knives. "Who?!"

The person in the photo is actually...

My dad!

My mind went blank.

what's the situation?

How did my dad end up in this photo?

Moreover, this photo looks quite old, and my dad looks much younger than he does now; it feels like...

Twenty years ago?

"Crack!" Another strange sound came from behind, this time louder and closer.

Gong Lin instantly shielded me behind him, his eyes scanning the surroundings warily.

Almost simultaneously, several dark figures sprang out from behind the pile of debris, wielding sticks, and charged menacingly towards us.

"Heh, a few small fry dare to come and die?" Gong Lin sneered, and in a flash, he rushed into the crowd.

Before I could react, I saw Gong Lin, like a tiger descending a mountain, knock down those henchmen with just a few punches and kicks.

This is too fast!

As expected of a second-generation elite soldier, his combat power is simply off the charts!

I was stunned; it felt like I was watching a live action movie.

After efficiently dealing with the henchmen, Gong Lin clapped his hands and walked over to me.

"Are you okay?" he asked with concern.

I shook my head, came to my senses, and quickly squatted down to inspect these low-level thugs.

"Don't waste time, see if they have any clues."

As I spoke, I quickly searched their pockets.

Sure enough, I found a crumpled note in one of the henchmen's pockets.

I unfolded the note, which contained a string of numbers and an address.

I immediately took out my small notebook and wrote down this information.

“…West ​​City Warehouse…” I muttered, feeling that the number looked somewhat familiar.

At this moment, Gong Lin also came over, glanced at the note in my hand, and frowned.

"The West City Warehouse... I think I've heard of this place before."

"Wait!" I suddenly realized something and looked up sharply. "...Isn't this the factory number where my dad used to work?!"

I looked up at Gong Lin and found that his expression had also become serious.

He grabbed my hand and said in a low voice, "Let's go."

Suddenly, I felt the ground tremble slightly...

The ground shook more and more violently, and I almost lost my footing. I quickly grabbed Gong Lin's arm.

"What's going on? An earthquake?"

Gong Lin's expression turned serious, and he pulled me behind him.

"It's not an earthquake, be careful!" As soon as he finished speaking, we heard a loud "boom," and the ground in front of us suddenly collapsed, revealing a large, dark hole.

Good heavens, this isn't an earthquake, it's someone trying to bury us alive!

I couldn't help but swear: "Holy crap! You're playing this high?!" If Gong Lin hadn't reacted quickly and pulled me back, I probably would have fallen in by now.

"It seems someone doesn't want us to continue our investigation." Gong Lin's eyes were icy, and his tone carried a hint of murderous intent.

I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself down.

"Bring it on, we'll deal with it! What's there to be afraid of? We're practically cheating!" I patted the bag at my waist, which contained all sorts of "treasures" I'd taken out of my spatial storage, and I immediately felt more confident.

We carefully skirted the collapsed ground and continued deeper into the factory.

The journey ahead is even more perilous, with various traps and mechanisms appearing one after another.

One moment it's a stray arrow flying out from the shadows, the next it's a suddenly falling iron net—it's even more thrilling than tomb raiding in movies.

If it weren't for Gong Lin, this agile and skilled soldier king, I probably would have been dead here long ago.

"This mastermind really went to great lengths. Are they treating us like 007?" I muttered to myself as I dodged the traps.

Gong Lin sneered, "Hmph, child's play." His movements were clean and swift, easily defusing all dangers.

After a perilous adventure, we finally arrived at a heavy iron gate.

The iron gate looked very sturdy, covered in rust, and clearly very old.

“This should be the core area of ​​the factory,” Gong Lin said in a deep voice after carefully examining the iron gate.

I nodded, took out a small tool from my bag, and began trying to open the lock on the iron gate.

This lock looks complicated, but it's not a problem at all for me, a "top student" who has a space and has learned all sorts of skills in that space.

With a "click", the lock opened.

I pushed open the iron gate, and a damp, cold smell rushed out.

Behind the iron gate was a deep, dark passage leading underground.

Gong Lin grabbed my arm and whispered, "Be careful, I'll go first."

I nodded and followed closely behind him.

The passage was pitch black, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.

I turned on my flashlight and lit up the road ahead.

After walking for about ten minutes, we arrived at a wooden door.

Gong Lin gently pushed open the door, and a dimly lit room appeared before us.

"It seems we've found the place." Gong Lin's voice sounded particularly deep in the darkness.

I looked around and found some old instruments and documents in the room, and a huge map hanging on the wall.

Suddenly, I felt Gong Lin's hand tighten abruptly, and he whispered, "Someone's here!"
