"It seems that we can only know the answer when Shang Jianyao enters the 'Spiritual Corridor'." Long Yuehong said a little disappointedly.
In reality, the mysterious laboratory in the ruins of Swamp 1 has been destroyed, so they can only find a way to dig out the hidden secrets from some people's dreams or memories.
Jiang Baimian first nodded, and then proposed another possibility:
"Those 'Spiritual Corridor' rooms recorded by Yan Hu are not necessarily equivalent to the original owner of 'The Coward'.
"The original owner could have left enough breath for some purpose or some kind of accident when he was exploring in another room.
"Also, maybe it's the room '102'. Yan Hu didn't tick it behind it, it doesn't mean that Yan Hu only went in once, maybe he didn't finish exploring the first time, only got the breath of 'coward', so he went on After the second or third exploration, I never came back."
Papapa, Shang Jianyao's applause is never late.
Jiang Baimian glanced at him:
"The next step is to observe to see if there are any other changes, and also to see if the company gives records of excavating the ruins of Swamp No. 1."
After she finished speaking, she walked back to her place and read the piled up materials.
…
For a long time to come, the "Old Tunes Group" prepared for the first city trip step by step in a relatively peaceful and stable state.
They spent most of their time training themselves and mastering the various situations of the "First City", and at the same time, they went to the surface three times, sometimes for field training, and sometimes for in-depth mastering of military exoskeleton devices.
Shang Jianyao did not find any remaining yellow-green fog in the "Sea of Origin", but to Jiang Baimian's surprise, he had not encountered the fourth island of fear for so long.
As for Room 23, Area B, on the 495th floor, it has been allocated to a couple who are married in free love, and nothing abnormal has happened. The encounter between Long Yuehong and Shang Jianyao was really like a dream.
Similarly, the influence of the "Natural Sect" within the "Panga Creatures" seems to have been completely eradicated, and there will be no follow-up.
In the blink of an eye, April is coming.
Jiang Baimian stood in room 14 on the 647th floor and said to Shang Jianyao, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen with a serious expression:
"Tomorrow is the scheduled departure date.
"Do you have any other ideas?"
Shang Jianyao and the others shook their heads at the same time.
The departure date was discussed and decided by them last month, and they each had enough psychological preparation.
The corners of Jiang Baimian's mouth were slightly raised, revealing a bright smile:
"Then I announce that I will leave work early, and you can go back now."
"Yes, team leader!" Bai Chen, Long Yuehong and Shang Jianyao answered in unison.
…
Floor 622, Zone B, Room 59.
Bai Chen took out the key and opened the door.
The layout of the room is very simple. There is a bed against the wall, a table against the window, a chair against the table, and a set of cabinets against the bed.
This is simple and simple, but it is neatly organized, there is no extra sundries, and there is no obvious place for dust. It is refreshing and clean.
Bai Chen didn't turn on the light, sat on the chair, and looked at the street lights outside the window scattered on the table, half of his body was in the light, and the other half was in the dark.
After a while, she reached out and opened the drawer of the table.
Inside lay a heavy mechanical part quietly.
There are some cracks on the surface of the parts, and the color is rather dull.
Bai Chen picked up the part, held it, looked at it, and didn't move for a long time.
…
Level 349, Block C, No. 12.
Jiang Baimian didn't return home until almost eight o'clock.
Of course, she had called in advance and said that she was having dinner in the "Ministry of Security" cafeteria, so that her parents would not have to prepare their own.
As soon as the door was opened, Jiang Baimian saw that the room was dark. Jiang Wenfeng was sitting on a chair by the window, looking through a book by the light of the street lamp.
"Pay attention to your eyes!" Jiang Baimian snapped on the fluorescent lamp in the living room.
It's like daytime here.
As Jiang Baimian walked towards Jiang Wenfeng who raised his hand and rubbed the inner corner of his eye, he complained:
"How much energy does this save
"You can't use up your energy allotment every month!"
Without giving Jiang Wenfeng a chance to speak, Jiang Baimian glanced left and right:
"Where's Mom?"
"Going to visit." Jiang Wenfeng breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile.
Good opportunity... Jiang Baimian thought secretly and sat next to Jiang Wenfeng.
She took a breath and made herself appear calm and calm:
"Dad, I have another mission tomorrow."
Jiang Wenfeng took off his reading glasses, glanced sideways at his daughter, and asked in a calm tone:
"Where are you going this time?"
Jiang Baimian replied obediently:
"The first city."
"Ah, that's a good place, but also a bad place." Jiang Wenfeng stood up, walked to the small table next to him, picked up the landline microphone, and dialed a number.
He said a few words to the other side, "Mmmm" twice, then put down the phone, turned around and said to Jiang Baimian:
"Huang Lao has a deep friendship with a veteran named Meyers of the 'First City' Senate. If you encounter difficulties and can't solve it yourself, the company's assistance will not keep up for a while, so go to the veteran. , report Huang Lao's name."
"Okay." Jiang Baimian nodded quickly.
When Jiang Wenfeng sat down again, she was silent for a few seconds, hugged her father's arm, and leaned her head over.
"Dad, am I being willful and selfish like this..." She looked forward and said to herself.
Jiang Wenfeng patted her arm with the other hand and said with a smile:
"When your grandfather was young, everyone worked hard day and night, so that the internal circulation of the company would be completely perfected, so that the place where everyone could survive and spend the apocalypse was truly built.
"Some people sacrificed for this, some were left ill, some lost their relatives and friends, but no one regrets it.
"He often told me that staying underground is not a long-term solution, and our future is always under the sun."
Having said this, Jiang Wenfeng paused for a while:
"I can understand your ideal."
Jiang Baimian snorted twice:
"Then are you willing?"
Jiang Wenfeng sighed deeply:
"I can't bear to be willing, I can't help my parents."
Jiang Baimian leaned his head closer and laughed:
"Then I'll help reassure my mother later."
"Are you counting on me?" Jiang Wenfeng laughed.
Jiang Baimian followed with a smile and said:
"Ms. Xue is angry, Bai Mian hugs her head and runs away, I can only rely on you."
Jiang Wenfeng looked ahead and sighed:
"Your mother is a knife-mouthed tofu-hearted person. Every time you go out on a mission, she can't sleep well at night, and she often wipes her tears quietly."
Jiang Baimian couldn't help but closed his eyes and muttered:
"I'll remember to bring a present for Ms. Xue..."
…
Level 495, Block C, No. 11.
The five members of the Long family gathered around the dining table and ate dinner.
"Today's dishes are so rich." Long Aihong sighed sincerely after eating a mouthful of braised pork.
Long Yuehong said with a smile:
"I got off work early today, so I added vegetables."
"Brother, if only you left work so early every day." Long Aihong imagined that beautiful scene.
"What did you say?" Gu Hong scolded, "It's either leaders or idlers who leave work early every day. Do you think your brother will not be able to improve in the future?"
"I'll just say it." Long Aihong whispered back.
At this time, she found that the second brother Long Zhigu had secretly eaten a few more pieces of meat while he was talking, and quickly closed his mouth and focused on the food.
When the father, mother, brother and sister had almost eaten, Long Yuehong looked around and said casually:
"I have another mission tomorrow. If it is fast, I will be back in a month, and if it is slow, it may take several months."
This is very different from the time spent in the previous field zippers.
Slam, Gu Hong's chopsticks fell on the table.
She picked it up quickly, piled up a smile and said:
"Did you say where to go to perform the mission?"
"The 'First City' side." Long Yuehong didn't go into details, only mentioned it briefly.
Gu Hong held the chopsticks, closed her mouth, and did not speak for a long time.
Seeing this, Long Dayong straightened his body and said in a deep voice:
"Be careful with everything, your mother and I can't help you, except that you don't need to worry about family affairs.
"When you go outside, you have to listen to your leaders. She must have more experience than you, and what she said must be reasonable. If you encounter a situation, don't rush too hard, take a look and wait..."
Having said that, Long Dayong paused, as if a little stuck.
At this moment, Gu Hong took a breath and said:
"Remember to bring that thin sweater, the surface often cools in April..."
As she talked, she couldn't continue, and her eyes were slightly red.
"Okay." Long Yuehong suddenly felt that the dishes in front of her were blurred.
Long Aihong and Long Zhigu next to him gave him a cheering gesture.
…
Level 495, Block B, No. 196.
Shang Jianyao was still lying on the bed, hiding in the dark, waiting for the broadcast to start.
Before long, the familiar voice echoed:
"Hello everyone, I'm Houyi, the hourly news announcer, it's 8:00 pm...
"At 9 o'clock this morning, the board of directors held the third management meeting of the year, and reviewed the year-end speech of the 'big boss'. At the meeting, Ji Ze, director and vice president of the board of directors, reported the production, research and trade situation in the first quarter.
"Production, research and trade remained steady in the first quarter...
"The management meeting decided to increase the supply of meat, eggs and milk in the next week...
"According to the latest report from the Ministry of Security, the activity frequency of robbers in the wilderness has returned to the level of the same period last year...
"The Spring Table Tennis Tournament ended, and the 580th floor team won the final victory...
"The first baby boomers of the year are coming...
"Radio program reform is advancing steadily...
"The temperature in the wilderness area plummeted today..."
…
The next morning, the neatly dressed Shang Jianyao walked into Area C.
Long Yuehong has been waiting at the door of the house.
The two did not speak, walked side by side, entered the elevator, and came to the 647th floor.
After going to the small locker room to change into a gray-blue camouflage uniform, and stuffing the tactical backpack with various things, Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong walked towards Room 14.
On the way, they met Bai Chen who came out of the women's locker room.
The three of them entered the office of the "Old Tune Team" one after another, and Jiang Baimian, who had already prepared well, was already waiting here.
She looked around and said with a smile:
"Set off!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Shang Jianyao helped to add:
"To save all mankind!"
