【Ruijin】Top Secret Mission

Jin took out a small plug-in from the pocket of the dark layer, and connected it to the computer accurately in the dim room with brisk movements.

There were no seats in the whole room, so Jin simply squatted on the floor, regardless of how cold the floor was, and began to tap the keyboard quickly and lightly.

The attention of the world's number one hacker has been completely focused on the fluorescent screen.His partner, the killer, checked the equipment inside the room and confirmed that there was no danger before leaning against the wall beside the door—maintaining a gun-holding posture. The seemingly casual standing pose actually contained explosive power. Immediately point the gun at the gap behind the door.

Of course, Gray also paid some attention to Jin.

Jin didn't care about the sight Gray cast on him at all, and it could even be said that he didn't know that a top killer was watching him.The hackers who have entered the working state are now wholeheartedly searching for opportunities in the electronic code. Strings of characters flash and leap up from the screen at high speed, their blue eyes are unblinking, and every moment may become a breakthrough.

Unprecedented calm.

It is also unprecedented tension.

Gray has never seen Jin like this before, just staring at it, as if something invisible in the air blocked his nose and mouth, making a hunter who has been bathed in murderous spirit all year round stunned and unable to breathe freely.

This is domination from another realm.

Gray feels pressured by the strangeness.

Jin pressed the enter key, his expressionless face was covered with mechanically reflected light.

"The first firewall breakthrough." Five fingers galloped on the keyboard, "The second firewall breakthrough."

At the same time, the voice of Gray's headset sounded.

[...Zhiss...Kelly's team has evacuated! ... Jin and Gray, retreat! ! ...]

Kelly's voice sounded uncharacteristically anxious.

[Gui Tianmeng is crazy, they set up a counter-bite, and they will explode from the ground floor in less than 10 minutes! ! ! 】

Gray's breath was stagnant, and his eyes were fixed on Jin's focused face—in order not to distract himself, the ace hacker took off his headset since he started hacking the computer.

"gold!"

The action of entering the code did not stop because of Gray's shout, he said calmly.

"The final firewall breach."

Ten minutes is enough for Gray and Jin to escape from the base together, and they can even walk out the main entrance leisurely—if Jin is willing to give up the unknown information in his hands.

"Bad news, 10 minutes timed self-explosion."

Gray was succinct. He didn't intend to risk his life for a mission, nor did he intend to let Jin take the risk.No matter what, Jin is his object of protection. Whether it is the one facing the frying pan, or the one entering the code on the LCD screen, Gray has the obligation and responsibility to keep him safe.

Even if there are still gaps and contradictions between the two.

"we must……"

"That's just right. I also have good news and bad news to tell you. Which one do you want to hear first?"

Jintou interrupted Grey's words without looking back, the movements of his hands became faster and faster, and the speed of blind typing was dazzling.If it weren't for the keyboard, the scene would have looked more like a hearty piano performance if Kim was sitting on the piano chair.

Gray frowned, he didn't want to listen to the piano performance now, and he didn't have time to play with Jin.

But it's impossible for Kim not to understand just how dire the situation is.He can joke, but Gray can guarantee that he will never waste extra humorous cells on such an important matter that concerns human life.

Gray made a choice in a cold voice.

"bad news."

"The explosion time has been shortened."

Jin shrugged his shoulders with a helpless expression.

"It seems that the protective measures were activated because I broke through the final firewall, and now there are a little more than 5 minutes before the explosion."

Gray gritted his teeth, very good, now they can only choose the escape route from the outside of the building.

"……good news."

Jin froze for a moment, turned his head to look at Mr. Killer lightly, raised his hand and dropped it, and pressed Enter to enter.

"Although this computer is not a host computer, it can be directly connected to the backend of the Guitianmeng server. As long as I act, I will have all the information." He smiled at Grey like a cat stealing, and the light and shadow of the screen looked very special. Touching, "Give me 3 minutes, and I'll transfer it all out."

Gray narrowed his eyes, and the undetectable joy was soon replaced by worry.

"We only have 5 minutes."

"Escape in 2 minutes is not impossible."

"Can you guarantee that all the information will be transferred and the path cleared within 3 minutes?"

"What? Don't you believe me?"

Jin raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth curled up, his rhetorical question could not have been more obvious.

But as soon as the words came out of his mouth, Jin himself realized that this was a wrong way of asking - letter?Isn't it just because of trust issues that he and Gray are so awkward.

For a while, Jin lost his voice. He felt his throat dry, so he quickly closed his mouth and turned his head back to look at the computer screen.

Gray was also taken aback.

Believe him?The kind of trust that entrusts your life?

Does this trust still exist between him and Jin.

Gray himself couldn't tell.He looked down at his favorite gun, and saw a momentary reflection of blue light in his sight—the tie had been loosened during the battle just now, and the tie clip was also a little skewed because of it, looking precarious.Gray reached out to adjust, but when he touched the cold metal through the glove, he still chose to take it off and put it in the hidden pocket on the outside of the body armor.

The room was silent for a century.

"Plan an escape route."

Gray's tone was a little harsh.His sudden sound made Jin almost shake his hands and press the wrong key. Fortunately, he didn't, otherwise the half-decoded information would be useless.

"……what?"

Gray no longer paid any attention to Jin, he simply locked the door and pressed his headset.

"Camille, plan the escape route, don't worry about the safety factor, just take the shortest time."

【Zi... hiss... hiss... hair, electric current... Zi...】

Gray's brows were tightly frowned, but at this time, he was disturbed by the power plant.He repeated the request again, but Camille's voice was completely swallowed by the electric sound, and the screeching sound gave Gray a headache.

Jin glanced quickly at Gray, then back at the screen—he had completely cracked the blocking code, and now Jin didn't need to manipulate anything more than to speed up the automatic flow of information.

There is less than 3 minute left.

He got up, and his knees were pressed against the cold floor for a long time, making his calves a little stiff—it might be better to stand for a while to get used to it, but self-help is obviously more important than this.

Jin wobbled a step closer to Gray, stretched out his hand to pinch Gray's earlobe with his bare index finger and thumb, and pulled Gray's head towards his face.Taking advantage of the situation, he tiptoed slightly, raised his chin and brought it close to Gray's ear, speaking very casually.

"Send a lifeboat, within 500 meters of the sea area south of the building, call Kelly's location code [1214]... Hey, where's your tie clip?"

Gray glanced sideways at Jin and touched his chest.

Jin nodded, and continued to add: "The transmitter is confirmed to be correct, and the location path is [Gold]"

After finishing speaking, he released two fingers, patted Gray's shoulder casually, and pointed to the wall on their left with his eyes.

"Do you have a grenade?"

"……only one."

"Probably enough."

Jin unplugged the computer, took off the purple stud earrings from his left ear, put them together in a sealed bag and then stuffed them into the dark buckle.He reached out and touched Gray's thigh again, and Gray didn't resist, allowing Jin to take his small pistol, watching Jin make minor adjustments to the password modifier on the inside of the door, and then destroying it with one shot.

This is really the way out.

"Blow up that wall over there."

Gray looked at the wall to the left.

"Guitianmeng changed the original design drawing, but the wall structure can't be changed." Jin walked back to the computer and entered another string of codes, intending to give Guitianmeng a return gift, which can be regarded as a breath of anger. "The extended corridor makes the walls here a lot thinner, and the orientation is just facing south."

Gray clearly took out the grenade from his arms.

"Using the momentum of the explosion to jump into the sea does not even take 2 minutes. But..."

Gray slowly confirmed the explosion point, pulled off the safety bolt, and threw it accurately.

"And what about tie pin positioning?"

The movement of the explosion was not small, and Jin raised his arm to block the splashing small cement blocks, and also blocked his embarrassing expression by the way.

"...Let's go back and talk about it."

Gray took a deep look at Jin and stopped talking.

The two looked at the cave in front of them. Outside the cave was the dark and turbulent sea, and the slightly bright sky.

The sea breeze blows towards the face and pours into the lungs of the two of them.

There are still 30 seconds before the explosion.

Kim and Gray started the run-up with the penultimate second.

Precise calculations made it possible for the flames to ignite Gray's clothes by a fraction of a millimeter—but before that, the two of them flew into the air due to the impact and air pressure of the explosion.

The take-off point at the height of the sixteenth floor is not the skyline, but it is enough for the two to experience what is called a free fall.

Jin's take-off beat was a bit slower, and when he took the last step, the strain on his ventral side insisted on his sense of existence, and the pain made Jin's feet almost go limp—but Gray grabbed Jin , and firmly grasped his wrist, so that nothing major went wrong.

The sound of the explosion was deafening, the reinforced concrete shattered, the electronic equipment crackled, and the fire caused by the explosives also instantly rose due to the sufficient oxygen.

Both Jin and Gray felt the scorching heat from their backs, but they had no time to take care of it, because of the instant weightlessness and the subsequent uplift of the organs—the two who had lost thrust could not defy gravity, and accelerated fall was inevitable .

Under high pressure, people cannot breathe normally, and there is no oxygen after falling into the water.

These were all expected by Jin, but there was only one thing he ignored.

It is winter now.

Jin held his breath, but still felt uncomfortable the moment he entered the water.The sea water is cold in winter, and when the sun has not risen in the morning, the surrounding liquid is extremely biting, eroding the human body temperature little by little.In just a few minutes, Jin felt that his limbs began to become numb and stiff, and the speed of blood circulation slowed down as if visible to the naked eye.The sea water blocking his nostrils was so cold that he almost forgot to hold his breath.

...bad...too cold...awareness...kind of...

Jin closed his eyes tightly, and the sea water poured into his ears, so that he could not hear the sound of the outside world at all, only the sound of his own heartbeat, and the non-existent self-cry for help.

……Help……

Just when Jin thought he was going to lack oxygen, something that wasn't hot but warm was pressed against his lips.

They fit tightly together without any gaps.The hot tongue protruding from it skilfully pried open Jin's jaw, pressed against the palate and sent some oxygen into Jin's lungs.

Not much, but enough to wake up the hazy consciousness for an instant.

Jin was so frightened that he quickly opened his eyes, and in an instant he saw Gray who was close at hand. With the light from the sea, Jin saw his surprised face reflected in those purple eyes.

Gray's hand was still holding onto Jin's wrist, although Jin didn't know it because it was too cold, but now he knew it, and tried to hold Gray's wrist instead, closing the distance between them.

There is no need to breathe anymore.

But they still put their arms around each other's waist slightly, then closed their eyes in a tacit understanding, and combined their lips tightly together, passing heat and life to each other.

The two people under the sea didn't know how rough the sea was, they only knew the beating frequency of the heart in their clinging chests.

Thump, thump.

Seems like an eternity.

Until the arrival of the rescue boat, the two were dragged into the kayak in embarrassment, and the dripping sea water dripped down their hair.

King was coughing, but he looked fine, and was slapped on the head by his female teammate (named Kelly) and yelled at him for dying.

Gray just glanced at it and then looked away.The feeling of sea water sticking to his face was uncomfortable, he wiped his face and looked up at the horizon.

The sun had already risen, shining the sparkling light on the sea surface, and the warmth brought by it made Gray breathe a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart.

Then Gray suddenly remembered that it was Wednesday morning.

Today is his and Kim's wedding anniversary.
