Staying until the end of get off work, several members of the "Old Tune Team" packed their belongings and prepared to leave.
When Long Yuehong, who was holding her laptop, passed by Jiang Baimian, she opened her mouth but didn't speak.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Baimian noticed his abnormality.
Long Yuehong hesitated for a moment and said:
"Team leader, you have been insisting on investigating the cause of the destruction of the old world and the origin of the 'innocence', which must be full of danger, aren't you, aren't you afraid of your own death?"
"There are comers!" Shang Jianyao, who was not far away, shouted with a smile.
Jiang Baimian glanced at him, looked at Long Yuehong, and said with a slight smile:
"Of course I'm afraid."
She paused and added sternly:
"But some things always have to be done by someone. In the dust, many times, it is not that you are afraid of death. If you don't take risks, you will not die. No one knows when the 'innocence' will fall on his head. To die in a state of confusion, I'd rather fall in search of hope."
"Would it feel better to look for the light?" Shang Jianyao asked in a probing tone.
Jiang Baimian made a "heh":
"Did you use 'literary youth' to yourself?"
She turned to Long Yuehong and smiled:
"Besides, it's not necessarily death, it's still possible to succeed."
At this time, Bai Chen interjected:
"At least as long as I can keep up, I want to stay in the group.
"In the future, the danger that the group will face is getting bigger and bigger, and I have no way to improve myself, I will take the initiative to quit, not to drag everyone down."
"What's not a drag?" Jiang Baimian said angrily and hilariously, "but this idea is good, in short, do what you can, you are like this, so will I. If the danger ahead is really too big to deal with , I will definitely not rush over stupidly, leaving the green hills, and I am afraid that there will be no firewood? If my generation really cannot complete the investigation of the cause of the destruction of the old world, I will focus on cultivating the next generation. "
Having said that, Jiang Baimian thought for a while and said:
"Anyway, don't rush to make a decision. Xiaohong, don't be impulsive and give up the opportunity. Maybe you will regret it in a few days. So do you, Xiaobai, genetic modification has certain risks no matter what, you can do more Think about it for a while and see if the situation changes, tomorrow and the unexpected, no one knows which will come first."
As for hello, I have already given up treatment!
Seeing that the team leader was speaking more formally, Bai Chen and Long Yuehong both nodded and agreed.
On the way back to the 495th floor, Long Yuehong was silent and did not speak, while Shang Jianyao quarreled a few words with himself.
He didn't persuade him to say anything, didn't cheer up, waved his hand, and set foot on the road home.
Back at home, Long Yuehong began to be busy, sometimes going to the "kitchen" to help Gu Hong, and sometimes going to the small room to help her sister Long Aihong with her homework.
After dinner, the family packed up the dishes and went out for a short walk. Then, the two of them took turns to play on the computer. The three of them chatted while listening to the radio.
"Hello everyone, I'm Houyi, the hourly news announcer, it's 8:00 pm...
"Today, Su Yu, director of the company's board of directors, went to the surface to express condolences to the employees who were on duty at the surrounding posts, and commended their perseverance in the harsh environment..."
Hearing this, Gu Hong turned her head sideways and looked at her eldest son:
"Is the surface environment really that bad
"You didn't say that before."
"Divided by place." Long Yuehong explained briefly, "Many areas were severely damaged when the old world was destroyed. Even today, extreme weather has often occurred. It may be sunny in the morning, and people are about to suffer from heat stroke. It snowed heavily, and it was nearly a meter thick."
"Those who are on duty and the expatriate employees of the Security Department are really working hard..." Gu Hong sighed with emotion.
Long Dayong immediately agreed:
"Yeah, if it weren't for their sacrifice, how could we live so peacefully and securely?"
Even if the supplies are a little scarce, it is much better than Shuiwei Town and Hongshiji.
Long Yuehong listened quietly, raised her right hand habitually, and touched her cheek.
The cold feeling woke him up.
…
In the middle of the night, Long Yuehong twitched and opened her eyes.
He just had a nightmare.
In the dream, his parents, younger brother and younger sister all suffered from "no heart disease".
He tried to save him, but was hit by a shell and ripped apart.
Long Yuehong raised her hand subconsciously and touched her forehead, feeling cold for a while.
He used his right palm again habitually.
After switching to his left hand, he found that his forehead was covered in sweat.
Long Yuehong took a breath and slowly spit it out. She decided to go to the bathroom for convenience and wipe her face.
As soon as he arrived at the door of the small bathroom at home, he saw a dim light shining through the crack of the door.
"Who's inside?" Long Yuehong asked.
"Me." Long Aihong's voice came out.
Long Yuehong asked casually:
"have not sleep yet?"
Long Aihong smiled awkwardly and said:
"Brother, don't tell your parents, me, I've been playing with the computer until now."
"Aren't you going to study tomorrow?" Long Yuehong was both angry and funny.
"No." Long Aihong replied confidently, "Tomorrow weekend."
I forgot about this... Long Yuehong thought about it and said:
"If I don't tell you, you can't hide it. That's all about the energy rationing at home. You use so much, how could your parents not find out?"
"I, I came back today and found out that the energy ration at home has increased a lot. I just squandered it a little. It's almost the end of the month. If I don't use it, it will be wasted." Long Aihong asked suspiciously, " Brother, do you know what's going on?"
Long Yuehong thought for a while and said:
"Probably, the part of the energy ration that corresponds to my promotion has been handed out."
"You, have you been promoted again?" Long Aihong was surprised and delighted, "D6?"
Long Yuehong said a little embarrassed and a little proud:
"Just confirmed, D7."
He hadn't told his parents about this, and Shang Jianyao didn't publicize it on the streets today.
"Wow!" Long Aihong praised sincerely, "Brother, you are amazing! Seriously, do you want to consider my classmates, several of them adore you."
Clearly, she has learned a lot from old world entertainment sources.
Long Yuehong coughed:
"How long do you have?"
"Wait, wait another five minutes, chatting with you will make me feel like I have to re-brew." Long Aihong estimated.
Long Yuehong thought for a while and said:
"Forget it, I'll go outside."
Five minutes is more than enough.
Wrapped in a thick cotton coat, he walked out of the house with a flashlight and walked to the nearest public toilet.
After comfortably finishing the solution, Long Yuehong shrank her body, illuminated the road ahead, and walked back step by step.
He has long been accustomed to the cold after the lights are turned off, knowing that with the help of certain technology, most of the precious geothermal energy is directed to the "production area", and the daily life provided by the "energy area" can naturally be saved at night. Province.
Long Yuehong was walking, when a black shadow suddenly jumped out from the side and rushed towards him.
This... Long Yuehong's actual combat experience is already rich. Seeing that it was too late to dodge, she hurriedly raised her right arm and stood in front of her.
Almost at the same time, his arm was heavy and was pressed up by the shadow.
With the corner of the flashlight, Long Yuehong could see the attacker clearly.
It was a somewhat familiar face. It should be a neighbor nearby. At this time, his expression was distorted, his eyes were cloudy and bloodshot.
"Wuxin disease"... Someone else has "wuxin disease"... Long Yuehong's heart tightened, and the palm of her right hand suddenly turned red.
This was his subconscious reaction, but he quickly controlled his instinct and gave up using the "laser transmitter".
This will pierce the wall or floor, and it is very easy to accidentally injure others!
In the blink of an eye, Long Yue's red-steel right arm shook and threw the "unintentional" out.
Then, he kicked his feet, threw himself on it, clenched his iron fist, and swung it out.
Pong!
The head of the "unintentional" sank directly, and an exaggerated wound appeared.
Watching the enemy slowly fall, Long Yuehong was a little scared by the strength of the mechanical arm.
He who had just recovered from a serious injury managed to solve an "unintentional" so easily...
The strength of this simple fist is not much worse than that of the team leader's biological prosthesis, and the hardness is definitely better than that!
After staying for more than ten seconds, Long Yuehong turned to the "Order Supervision Room".
…
The next morning, room 14 on the 647th floor, in the office of the "Old Tune Team".
"Is there another 'involuntary disease' last night?" Bai Chen was busy with the task at hand, and asked while preparing to go to the training room.
She heard about it from the early morning radio, so she asked well-informed local employees Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong to inquire.
Shang Jianyao looked at Long Yuehong.
Long Yuehong said "uh":
"I met."
"Are you okay?" Bai Chen asked.
"No." Long Yuehong smiled, "It's relatively easy to solve."
"Has the company's incidence of 'no heart disease' increased this year?" Bai Chen turned to ask another key point.
"I don't know." Shang Jianyao shook his head, "I have to ask Dabai to check."
When it came to Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong found out that the team leader hadn't come till now, and it's been 20 minutes after working hours.
