The next morning, the sun climbed into the sky early, but it was blocked by a large sea of clouds, unable to reveal a ray of golden sunlight. Temperatures can drop as low as 10 degrees on cloudy days. Wang Yan wore a thick cotton jacket, cotton trousers and high-top shoes, ready to go out.
As soon as Wang Yan opened the door, she saw Wu Qi leaning against the corridor wall. Wu Qi's schedule has always been very regular. He woke up an hour before Wang Yan went out.
Wang Yan pretended not to see Wu Qi, but Wu Qi suddenly stood up and stopped Wang Yan who was about to go to the corridor.
Wang Yan raised her head, and the tear stains on her cheeks had disappeared overnight. She said coldly: "Why are you stopping me?"
Wu Qi handed Wang Yan a card, which was Wang Sheng's identity card. It was the equivalent of a savings card for mercenary remuneration in the Sirius Group.
"This includes Wang Sheng's savings, the living expenses he left for his sister after the accident, and the remuneration from the settlement of this mission, a total of 160,000," Wu Qi explained. In the profession of mercenary, there is no pension.
One hundred and sixty thousand is a huge number for an ordinary person without the expense of genetic enhancement and weapons and equipment. If Wang Yan lives alone, she can pay the residence fee and living expenses for five yuan without working and without any income. to six years.
Wang Yan drew the card coldly, not feeling the slightest joy at the huge number of 160,000.
Wu Qi continued: "The reward for this mission is 300,000 yuan, divided equally among the six people. I have already paid the share of Zhang Bai and Yang Dongchen's family."
Wu Qi did not say that he also gave half of his compensation to Wang Yan. Wu Qi did not have excessive requirements for his equipment. He only needed an ordinary Sirius II combat uniform, supplemented with bullets and projectiles from the M500 pistol, and medical components.
Wu Qi and Wang Sheng had known each other for less than two weeks, and had only been together for one week. Wu Qi was very grateful to Wang Sheng for everything he had done for him.
Perhaps to Wang Sheng, his help for Wu Qi was considered friendship, but if he helped Wu Qi find his sister's whereabouts, it would be a favor to Wu Qi.
Except for Ruorong who could not be found, Wu Qi had no relatives. If it weren't for Charlotte's threat, Wu Qi wouldn't mind taking care of Wang Sheng's sister.
There are some things in the world that cannot be helped after all. Wu Qi will leave the G011 base in a day and a half, partly because of Charlotte and partly because of finding his sister. The fate is unknown. Even if Wu Qi will come back one day, he doesn't know how long it will be.
So he decided to use this method to repay Wang Sheng's affection or kindness to him.
Wang Yan put Wang Sheng's card into the pocket of her cotton-padded jacket, and then said a cold thank you.
Wang Yan crossed Wu Qi's side and walked towards the stairs at the lower level of the passage. Wu Qi followed.
"I will leave the G011 base in a day and a half and may never come back. Maybe I am too talkative. How do you plan to spend this money? I want to remind you that this is far from enough for you to live in the base for a lifetime."
Wang Yan only left Wu Qi with an indifferent figure. She said, "Since you know how to talk, why do you ask?"
Wu Qi was furious, but more importantly, he felt that something was wrong with Wang Yan's emotions. He walked quickly to Wang Yan and stopped her again.
Wu Qi restrained his emotions, his dark eyes looked like frozen mirror lakes, and he asked very seriously: "Speak!"
Wang Yan stopped, as if she had hit a frozen wall. Wu Qi's aura gave her the coldness of falling snow in June, as if these were his last words of benevolence.
Wang Yan clenched her hands tightly in her cotton-padded jacket pockets, and then met Wu Qi's ice-like eyes with sharp eyes like a falcon.
At this moment, Wang Yan completely wiped out her liking for Wu Qi's appearance and her good impression of him as Wang Sheng's companion.
Wu Qi suddenly saw the Wang Sheng he first met in Wang Yan's eyes. The eyes of the same blood contained the same decisiveness, sharpness, tenacity and calmness.
"Go buy a genetic enhancement potion."
Eight simple and concise words explain it all. The "pet bird" that was once kept in a cage by Wang Sheng, the "master", is ready to soar freely in the sky with its own wings.
Wang Yan passed Wu Qi again, walked out of the residential building, and disappeared around the corner.
Wu Qi will not stop Wang Yan anymore. This was her own choice. Although she might die sooner than she spent her money in the base, Wu Qi felt that maybe this was more like Wang Sheng's style than staying in the base to find a job.
Wu Qi walked straight to the car parked downstairs, opened the door and got in. The car's engine roared hoarsely, started and drove along the road to the Sirius Group Building.
... ...
Half an hour later, Wu Qi walked into the mission hall on the second floor of the Sirius Group Building through the elevator. The spacious hall is 2,000 square meters, and the floor tiles are all covered with gray granite.
Wu Qi walked directly to the gray system console, entered Wang Sheng's mercenary certificate number, and logged into Wang Sheng's account. The task of searching for Ruorong was found in the person search function.
A series of symbols that Wu Qi couldn't understand flashed on the electronic screen. This troubled Wu Qi. He couldn't understand it at first, and he still doesn't understand it now.
At this time, the sound of approaching footsteps came to Wu Qi's ears. The visitor's aura was 90% unfamiliar and 100% familiar to Wu Qi.
"Hello, do you need help?"
Wu Qi turned his head and saw that the other person was an ordinary man who would not be recognized in a crowd. He looked in his early thirties and was wearing a Sirius Group staff uniform.
Wu Qi recognized this person as Zhang Xiang, the staff member who was responsible for his mercenary registration test.
Zhang Xiang also recognized Wu Qi, and he smiled and said: "What a coincidence, you must be the young man who Wang Sheng brought to the group to register as a mercenary. With this handsome face and beautiful eyes, I should not admit my mistake."
Zhang Xiang's mouth felt like honey. Although Wu Qi was not an important customer, this was his professional habit.
"Uncle Xiang..." Wu Qi said. He didn't know Zhang Xiang's name. According to the knowledge Ruorong taught him, he should be called this.
"Hahahaha, you call Wang Sheng brother, why do you call me uncle." Zhang Xiang was amused by Wu Qi, and then took a step closer, intending to take a look at the interface Wu Qi operated.
"need help?"
Wu Qi said "Yeah".
"Let me take a look." Zhang Xiang glanced at the interface Wu Qi was operating. Wu Qi logged in to Wang Sheng's account, scanned a portrait of a young woman, and used the database's person-finding function. And the database has already fed back the symbols of the corresponding information.
"Wang Sheng said there is no relevant information in the database. If the system is calibrated and monitored, it will take more than half a month." Wu Qi couldn't afford to wait half a month.
After reading this, Zhang Xiang showed a little surprise on his face. He couldn't help but ask one more question: "Wu Qi, who is your person you are looking for?"
Wu Qi said truthfully: "My sister."
The surprise on Zhang Xiang's face was even worse, and the look in Wu Qi's eyes suddenly became more ambiguous. He thought about it, Wu Qi was the person Wang Sheng liked, and with his relationship with Wang Sheng, there was no harm in telling Wu Qi.
"Wu Qi, what I'm telling you next is internal information. Don't spread it around. Ordinary users only know that this series of symbols means 'not in the database', but insiders can see the difference."
Wu Qi listened attentively and only heard what Zhang Xiang said.
"The real meaning of the system feedback is that there is no permission to access."
