After finishing the parts, Liu Yan casually stuffed something into a spherical shell while waiting for the meal. He snapped off the tip of the thumbtack, flattened it with a large piece of steel, sharpened the edge on an emery wheel, and shove it in.
"What are you doing?" Dr. Wei gave him a strange look as he passed by: "New here?"
"Liu Yan." Liu Yan stood up and said, "Hi, teacher."
Dr. Wei nodded and motioned him to sit down: "Hello, the workpiece model is out? Let me see your equipment, what's the use?"
"This is a multi-purpose robot bomb." Liu Yan held the palm-sized metal ball: "It is divided into two layers. The outer layer is filled with scrap iron, and the lower layer is filled with a high-energy chip battery, a temperature-sensing circuit board and a miniature infrared sensor. Camera, make a hole here…”
"Ah!" Dr. Wei said, "Very good, how do you confirm... I see, using the gravity axle, you can keep the angle of the camera always facing forward. Not bad, it consumes very little energy."
Liu Yan nodded and said: "Put a tube of active metal powder on the bottom, and add a little bit... Dangerous goods are not available. After I tried to seal it, the remote control will detonate with one button, and a large amount of gas will be emitted from the bottom. The reverse thrust can make the metal The ball robot lifts into the air and rotates at a high speed. The moment the angular velocity reaches 6000rad per second, the shell will be thrown off, and all the steel pieces will be thrown away... "
Dr. Wei: "…"
Liu Yan looked up at him, and said, "The lifting force and the rotating force reach a complete balance at about 160 centimeters from the ground. At this time, the thrown steel pieces are like bullets, which can be shot into the zombie's head and kill the surroundings. A big piece."
"Very good." Dr. Wei said, "Lend me this for fun! In exchange, I'll show you something."
Liu Yan said: "Wait, I want to show it to General Meng Jianguo, what do you think, teacher?"
Dr. Wei said, "He doesn't care about it, just follow me."
Liu Yan thought something was wrong, got up and followed Dr. Wei into the inner workshop, but what he saw was a large double-arm fishing machine.
Liu Yan's head drooped, and Dr. Wei said, "What do you think of this? Don't make such an expression, young man, express your opinion?"
Liu Yan said absent-mindedly: "Well... the mechanical arm is very interesting..." He pretended to do a mantis fist, and said with a blank face: "It's really a great invention."
"Look again?" Dr. Wei signaled him to come forward: "Let's take a closer look?"
Liu Yan frowned and looked at it for a while, then suddenly said: "Is this for deep water operations?"
Dr. Wei said angrily: "Of course! You discovered this?"
Liu Yan said: "The metal casing uses the latest molding method... the laser gun head and the mechanical arm can withstand a force of nearly two hundred tons? What is the compression index? Teacher, you designed this? What is it used for?"
Dr. Wei said, "Catch something in the trench."
Liu Yan asked: "What is it?"
Dr. Wei: "Ox Complex."
Liu Yan: "Ox..."
"You want to catch that kind of giant?!" Liu Yan said in shock, "What's the use?"
Dr. Wei said: "I don't know what the seventh district asked to do. Have you seen that kind of thing?"
Liu Yan was surprised: "Can't they struggle?"
Dr. Wei spread his hands and said, "I only know the approximate weight, so it's hard to say, what do you think needs to be improved."
Flesh giants in the trench? What are they doing in the trench? Liu Yan vaguely remembered those giants who traveled long distances to the southeast... Did they leave the mainland, go to the coastline, and then go to the trench? what's there
This time Liu Yan stopped being perfunctory, he walked around the fishing machine, and said slowly: "I don't see anything that needs to be improved."
"Well..." Dr. Wei said, "I'll give you a blueprint of the robotic arm. I'll think about it when I go back tonight, and add some accessories to it just in case."
Liu Yan: "I want the program to re-model accurately..."
"No problem!" Dr. Wei said bluntly: "Choose a laptop computer in the workshop and take it. I will open the information line password for you. After accessing it, you can download data from the military's basic database."
Liu Yan nodded, and Dr. Wei rolled up a copy of the blueprint and stuffed it in his collar, and said, "That's right, energetic young man, let's go eat."
Liu Yan left the 18th floor and went to the canteen of the military area on the 17th floor for dinner. The food here was very good—salmon, prawns, scallops, oysters, abalone, king crab, fried octopus, conch soup, sea urchin soup... Seafood was everything, Vegetables are all kelp and bean sprouts.
Each person is limited to four servings, and the spirulina cake is used as dessert. Liu Yan is like a prisoner who is busy escaping from prison, his head is still thinking about his own plan, and his mind is absent. After eating, I packed up my things and went back to the dormitory, and started to look at the drawings.
The roommate is back.
The roommate's name is Liao Xingyao, who works as a computer repairer in another computer room, throwing things away and lying on the bed to program. Liu Yan lived here for almost a month, and he didn't see Zhang Min and the others, but he got acquainted with Liao Xingyao.
Getting along with him reminded Liu Yan of the days when he lived with Cui Xiaokun, the car when returning home, the psp when returning to school and fleeing, and couldn't help being a little sad.
"The surname is Liao." Liu Yan said.
"What?" Liao Xingyao said: "I was scolded just now, those soldiers are really bastards, like one or two uncles. Use the discipline of the army to suppress people..."
"Don't say that." Liu Yan said, "Can you help me hack the identification system on the seventh floor?"
Liao Xingyao was taken aback and said, "What are you going to do!"
Liu Yan said: "I want to go in and find someone who won't let me pass. I've tried everything."
Liao Xingyao said: "No, our genius senior sister is watching, don't even think about it, she will strangle you to death."
Liu Yan sighed.
Liao Xingyao said, "Who are you looking for?"
Liu Yan said: "Can someone help me with a message? I want to talk to General Meng Jianguo."
He looked up from the opposite shop and looked at Liao Xingyao across the tea table in the middle. Liao Xingyao said, "Wow! You know him? Why do you want him?"
Liu Yan said: "I want to apply to leave here and go to the front line to support my friend."
"Don't be so stupid!" Liao Xingyao immediately said: "It's very dangerous outside, you are looking for death? Zombies are everywhere. Give me some peanuts."
Liu Yan threw the peanut over and said, "When did you enter the sixth district?"
Liao Xingyao thought for a while, and said: "To be honest, I didn't know what was going on at that time. I was lying down and sleeping at night, and someone knocked on the door to wake me and my mother up, let us get on the plane, and came here."
Liu Yan: "So you don't know the life outside."
Liao Xingyao: "You want to go to the front line? Why?"
Liu Yan continued to immerse himself in the drawings, and casually said, "My friend is short of a mechanic, so I have to help."
"Do you know?" Liao Xingyao said sympathetically, "The soldiers who go out to save people have four lives, but the logistics personnel only have one life."
"Why?" Liu Yan frowned.
"Vaccine is very expensive." Liao Xingyao said: "I won't give you a shot. I heard from them that when the virus broke out, many, many soldiers died, and now there are no people left. They sent some to the coast to clean up the zombies. Many were sent to protect scientists and investigate in Antarctica. The rest were sent to rescue people. The soldiers had to save people and protect logistics technicians. They were too busy and many died. A vaccine costs 600 Ten thousand dollars, provided by the international joint organization, where can afford it?"
"So expensive?" Liu Yan was startled.
"You know the Hurricanes don't." Liao Xingyao said.
Liu Yan said: "I was sent by the Hurricane Team."
Liao Xingyao nodded slowly, and said: "Their technicians are waiting in a garage in the city. The team leader took people out on a mission. Many zombies crawled into the vents. He asked for help everywhere, and even sent a distress signal to the base. It was enough to call for help. After four hours, he couldn't run out, and when the captain came back, he had already been eaten by zombies with a bloody head left."
Liu Yan: "..."
Liao Xingyao said: "Stay here, your parents ordered you to do something wrong. Now there are no technicians who want to go to the front line, even if the military forces them not to go. Who wants to go? No one wants to go."
Liu Yan said: "The military forces people to go, can they not go?"
Liao Xingyao sneered and said, "I was also a deserter when I went there. I have run away for several times, and all of you are dead. You guys are better at machinery than the other. Just drive the car away and find a place to hide for ten days and half a month."
"This patriotic education..." Liu Yan sighed, "It's really not done well."
"Your life is yours." Liao Xingyao said: "Everything else is fake, understand? Now the army does not dare to forcibly recruit young men. After all the technicians they trained themselves are dead, they can only recruit from civilians, or let the special forces The people who want to find a way to solve it by themselves, who told them not to protect the logistics when they perform their tasks?"
"The most lacking thing in the world now is mechanics. The lives of special forces are worthless, and the country raises them to die. The country wants to save money, but also wants people to die..."
Liu Yan said: "The logistics technicians only need to hide in the car, they don't have to fight the zombies head-on, and it's the same if they don't get vaccinated."
"Yes." Liao Xingyao said: "But who is not afraid? Sitting in the car, there are zombies outside, and I am also afraid. Even if you are given the vaccine, it didn't say that you will not come back when you run out of three lives, or You have to wait to die, it has nothing to do with a few lives."
Liu Yan sighed, and Liao Xingyao said: "Now the captains all treat the mechanic as a treasure, no one will go, who will go to the front line that must die? Understand?"
"Understood." A sense of sadness rose in Liu Yan's heart.
Enlightenment is over, turn off the lights, and go to bed.
Liu Yan said in the dark: "You don't know that their days are all walking a tightrope on the abyss... There is no end."
April 25, 2013.
I have to admit that when the official said he would send me to study in the EU, my heart was shaken for a moment.
Compared with the outside, here are two worlds. Zombies and fleeing seem to be very far away from me these days, and memories have become things of the previous life.
Only Meng Feng's figure was still so clear.
After the war, I will go out with the big troops to rebuild my homeland and live the life I should live again.
As for Meng Feng, maybe before the war with humans and zombies is over, the bodies of him, Lai Jie, Wen Qige, Li Yan...their bodies have already been buried on the ground.
If I don't go, until the day when I set foot on land again, I will only miss Meng Feng and suffer for the rest of my life.
The next day, someone came to the door, it was Liu Yan's old friend Hu Jue.
"I finally found you." Hu Jue said helplessly.
"You look like a dog." Liu Yan teased.
Liu Yan was wearing a khaki military uniform, while Hu Jue was wearing a neat suit, with a shaved beard and smooth hair.
He looked around Liu Yan's dormitory, exchanged some pleasantries, took out a stack of shiny things from his suit, put them on the table, and said, "Brother, thank you for taking care of you during that time, and I'm here to repay you."
"Where is it?" Liu Yan couldn't laugh or cry: "What is this?"
He took a piece of it to the light and looked at it. It was a piece of gold foil covered with glue. It was small in size, only half a finger long, and very thin.
Hu Jue was surprised: "You don't know? This is a new currency, which is universal."
Liu Yan understood, and asked, "Are you still doing business?"
Hu Jue smiled and said, "Where there are people, there is business. Didn't you read the advertisement in the elevator?"
The corners of Liu Yan's mouth twitched and he nodded again and again. Hu Jue said, "Gold reserves are now the only currency in circulation, and each piece is worth more than 1,700 yuan in face value. You can keep it and use it for whatever you want."
Liu Yan said: "I don't need it, all the expenses here are paid by the army."
Hu Jue insisted again and again, Liu Yan had no choice but to put away the folded gold foil, Hu Jue said again: "Can you do me a favor?"
Liu Yan knew that there was something to ask for: "What's the matter? Tell me."
Hu Jue said: "Help me make a bug. All the property of the company has been transferred, and the development team under the name is almost the same. Except for the seventh district and the military workshop, I can hardly find what I want."
Liu Yan: "What do you want the bug for?"
Hu Jue said: "Zhou Weihe is about to hold a meeting. Specifically speaking, it is very complicated. The general manager intends to bring down the competitors. The bastard's daily hundred degrees, except for pirated versions, are simply a group of robbers. We want to steal Listen to their bidding reports. Bid in batches, no one can hear the contents of others, and discuss with the admiral individually. We have to adjust the content according to the competitors' reports, understand."
Liu Yan said: "Where is the meeting?"
Hu Jue: "In this area, the United Front Work Department of the Seventh Floor Army can do it?"
Liu Yan secretly said that this is really an opportunity that came to his door: "I can do it. Mechanical bugs are my specialty, and I guarantee that I will never be discovered by the military. But can you take me to the seventh floor? I'm going to see Meng Feng and his dog\日father."
After a short pause, Hu Jue vaguely guessed the inside story, and replied: "No problem, just say you are my assistant, but you must be quick, there will be a meeting this afternoon. People from our company just came here, and they are all on the third floor Wait at the reception."
Liu Yan said: "Okay, you just wait here."
Liu Yan went back to the workshop like a gust of wind, handed in the revised drawings, dug out the parts and made a simple bug, and didn't have time to eat in the afternoon, Hu Jue was still waiting when he returned to the dormitory.
"Can you hear me?" Liu Yan said outside the wall.
"It's a bit vague." Hu Jue said happily: "But enough! Let's go!"
Hu Jue asked Liu Yan to change into a shirt and trousers, took him to the third floor to fill out the form, re-reported his identity, received a temporary companion card and scanned his pupils and waited outside.
The general manager of the international company was an old man, and he shook hands with him personally. Liu Yan felt a little flattered, this old man was someone who had fought with Buffett and fought with Bill Gates.
Everyone straightened their collars and followed the general manager into the seventh floor.
Liu Yan's heart was beating like a drum, and his back was covered with sweat. Hongqiao spanned the entire sixth district from the side of the elevator, leading to the central tower.
They were waiting in the lounge on one side of Hongqiao, and two soldiers were waiting at the door.
Hu Jue turned sideways to talk to the general manager, took out the bug in the inner pocket of his suit, blocked it with his body, and handed over the earphones. The old man closed his eyes and rested, and put the earphones in his left ear, covering them with his gray hair.
The other end of the bug was taped to the wall.
"I'm going out for a walk." Liu Yan said.
Hu Jue said: "Don't go too far, come back early."
Liu Yan left the rest room, and on the left side of Hongqiao was the endless indigo sea. Outside the transparent glass wall, thousands of schools of fish refracted the sunlight, forming a magnificent spectacle passing by.
At the end of the Hongqiao is the passage of the seventh district, and on the right is a row of side-by-side rooms with military rank emblems painted on the doors.
The offices of the eleven army generals are all here, and Liu Yan's heart can't help beating even more violently. Just open a door at will, and there are officers at the rank of army commander inside. Which office is Meng Jianguo in
One spike, one star... Liu Yan decided to try his luck, at least to make a general come out, as long as someone is alarmed, it will be fine.
Liu Yan walked towards one of the doors, and the guard outside the door immediately asked, "Who is it?"
Liu Yan said: "I'm here to find General Meng Jianguo."
The guard said: "General Meng doesn't have time, and no appointment will be accepted without an appointment. Go back to where you came from."
Liu Yan knew that he had guessed right, he was really lucky, this door was Meng Jianguo's office.
An adjutant just opened the door, came out from the inside, and was about to walk towards the lounge when he found Liu Yan outside and stopped.
"What's the matter?" said the adjutant.
"Family matters." Liu Yan said, "I'm looking for General Meng Jianguo about his son."
The adjutant frowned and said, "Who are you to him?"
Knowing that he had won, Liu Yan raised his left hand, showed his diamond ring, and said with a smile:
"I am his daughter-in-law."
