The following are the specific contents of the containment.

Multinational Joint Research Station:

The Research Station is an Antarctic inland Research Station jointly established by the United States, the United Kingdom, Italy, Norway and other countries.

Its main purpose is to explore the environmental form under the ice sheet, find and classify the creatures under the ice sheet, and other Scientific Research Projects.

Funding for the Research Station is provided directly by governments.

And hired a number of professional security guards to protect Research Station's many assets, including the hidden identity agent Li Mu.

Agent Rebecca·Chamboss relied on his own academic papers and knowledge of chemistry and biology to become one of the researchers of Research Station.

Also due to sufficient funds, Research Station has many buildings, including buildings for living, rest, entertainment, scientific research, experiments, etc.

Taking into account the severe cold and extreme day and night, the Research Station buildings are connected to each other by reinforced corridors to avoid the need for personnel to frequently change equipment and go to other buildings.

Time: June 22, 2010.

Antarctic polar night.

Research Station's rest and entertainment building.

A lounge with plush sofas and an electric fireplace.

I saw Rebecca, a petite figure with short brown hair, wearing a white turtleneck sweater and dark green trousers, holding a steaming paper cup of coffee in his hand.

"Huh~" She blew gently, then put the coffee to her mouth and took a sip.

"Ah..."

It seemed to be still a little hot, so she quickly put the coffee on the low glass table in front of her, and then quickly used both hands to fan her protruding tongue.

Li Mu, who has sleek short hair and is dressed in black security clothing, is also by the window of the lounge.

After hearing various noises coming from behind him, he turned around and walked to the water dispenser nearby, took out a paper cup and drank half a cup of cold water.

He walked to Rebecca and put the cold water on the low table, then returned to the window to watch the snow scene outside.

Rebecca quickly picked up the paper cup, drank the cold water and held it in his mouth for a few seconds. Finally, he felt that the tip of his tongue was no longer so numb.

Then she raised her head and thanked Li Mu not far away, "Thank you, Li Mu."

Li Mu just nodded lightly and said nothing more.

Rebecca seems to have been accustomed to getting along with Li Mu. She just shrugged, got up and came to the window.

Then I saw the Starlight sky outside the window, the white snow, and the Research Station with lights on.

Rebecca looked at Li Mu's profile and tried to talk. "It seems the weather is very nice."

"Hmm."

"But weather satellites show that there will be heavy snowfall soon. Alas, we may not be able to enjoy such a good night view by then."

"Hmm."

"..."

"Attention everyone, I am Dr. Halverson Sand..." When the atmosphere in the lounge was slightly awkward, the voice of Director Research Station came over the radio:

"Please ask the security personnel to gather in the main building area. I have something important to tell you. I will repeat it again..."

After hearing the words on the radio, Li Mu said words other than um and said, "I'm leaving first."

After saying that, Li Mu left the lounge and walked towards the lobby of the main building.

Rebecca looked at Li Mu's back, shook his head slightly disappointed, and said to himself:

"Hey, he is really just a piece of wood, forget it."

She sighed and left the lounge to go to her office to conduct daily research work.

In the lobby of the main building;

Nearly a dozen people wearing black clothing gathered here. They were all security personnel employed by Research Station, and Li Mu was also standing among them.

Sand, who has a carefully trimmed beard and is about fifty years old, stands in front of the security personnel.

The supervisor Vision glanced at everyone and said with a serious expression, "Everyone, there are still three hours until the blizzard arrives at our station.

(emphasis added) The team exploring outside was trapped southwest of our station due to a breakdown of the crawler vehicle.

So I need a team of people to go to the rescue and bring them home safely before the blizzard engulfs them."

At this time.

Sand glanced past Li Mu, who was in charge of Team Two's security, and finally landed on a security captain not far away who said, "Let your group be responsible for this matter."

"Yes, supervisor." The security captain had no objection to this.

"Very good, then I'll leave it to you." Sand said solemnly.

The captain nodded to him and left the hall with seven other security guards.

Li Mu, who said nothing during the whole process, stared at the backs of the security guards and then looked out the window at the sudden change in the weather.

There is always an ominous premonition.

Nearly an hour later;

Three van tracked vehicles are traveling through the snowfield, heading to the Coordinates given by Dr. Sand to rescue the trapped Exploration Team.

Inside the lead car.

Accompanied by the noise of the tracks and engines, and the gradually howling wind outside the car, the captain in charge looked at the navigation in his hand and reminded the security guard in charge of the driving:

"Attention, it's close here."

"Hmm."

Since it is now the polar night and the wind and snow are gradually building up, the view is somewhat obstructed.

However, those exploration teams were not stupid and used high-power lighting equipment to light up their location.

The captain and the driver quickly noticed the faint flash of light through the frosted windows on all sides, and then led the convoy to the location of the exploration team.

Arrive and get off the bus.

Bol's eyes narrowed slightly due to the wind and snow, he walked towards the broken down snowmobile and reminded the exploration team members loudly:

"Everyone, please get on the bus quickly, we want to leave here!"

"Wait a minute!"

However, a leader of the exploration team came to Li Mu and said, "We have important Biological Samples in our car! Please help us move it! Soon!"

Bol nodded in agreement without thinking, and shouted to the security guards following him, "Help them transfer the samples!"

All the security personnel and a group of Exploration Team members used tools to connect the tracked bucket containing the giant half-ice block to a snowmobile that came to the rescue.

Due to the low light and bad weather, it was impossible to see the creatures in the ice clearly.

After spending a certain amount of time to properly arrange the so-called 'Biological Samples', due to the increasingly severe snowstorm, everyone had no choice but to abandon the malfunctioning snowmobile.

Immediately afterwards.

A group of security guards carried Exploration Team and drove back in the direction of Research Station in three ounces of snowmobiles.

During this period, Blizzard was almost behind the convoy, 'chasing' them tightly, as if it was going to 'swallow' them at any time.

Originally it was just that the field of vision was poor.

Now looking out from inside the car...

It was not a problem of poor vision, but that the visibility in the vast expanse of white was almost zero, and the car body began to shake seriously.

Now, the security guards finally understood why the supervisor's tone was serious, as if he was facing a formidable enemy.

However, the driver of the lead vehicle did not show any panic, but still drove the tracked vehicle calmly, and finally returned to Research Station before the blizzard arrived.
