"It's late, shall we go home?"
After reading the materials, Xia Xu took another super brain potion and tried to study books such as mechanical design. Under the dual effects of the potion and interest, he gradually became fascinated.
When I was awakened by the little white flower patting my shoulder carefully, I looked up and found that the surroundings were already shrouded in darkness and the dim street lights had already lit up on the streets.
At this moment, he and Tang Youxin were the only ones left in the consulting company; Meng Bochao and the others had already left.
It seemed that someone had greeted him several times before, but he just responded casually and didn't pay much attention.
"Sorry, I got a little carried away."
Xia Xu looked at the well-behaved little white flower, smiled with an apologetic yet doting look, stood up and stretched.
"Come on, let's go home."
After stretching, he packed up his things, called out Atuo who was hiding somewhere, closed the shop and left.
"oh."
Tang Youxin followed closely, just half a step behind, her head slightly lowered to hide her slightly flushed cheeks.
Although it is true that we went home together, it always feels a bit misleading to say this.
"Why are you dawdling? Hurry up and catch up. It's so late now. Your dad must be worried. I'm afraid he's making up stories about me in his mind right now."
Xia Xu couldn't help but laugh and tease.
"I've already called him and told him."
Tang Youxin corrected herself, but still jogged two steps, changing from a follower to walking side by side.
"What did you say?"
Xia Xu asked.
"Just say you and I are here at the company."
Tang Youxin tilted her head, seeming to wonder why Xia Xu asked this.
"Then he must be even more worried. He might even rush over with a stick in his hand."
Xia Xu didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard this.
"No, Dad is not that kind of person."
Tang Youxin defended her father dissatisfiedly.
"Well, I also believe that our father is not that kind of person."
Xia Xu nodded in agreement.
"Ignore you."
This time the little white flower reacted quickly, and took a few quicker steps out of shyness.
Xia Xu jogged after him with a grin, and they walked side by side again, but he did not say anything again, just accompanied him in silence.
The empty street was deserted. The road was sometimes dark and sometimes illuminated by dim street lights, making the two people walking side by side seem to be emitting a glow, their shadows stretched out long and finally blended into one.
I am most afraid of the air suddenly becoming quiet.
Silence between strangers creates awkwardness, while silence between close people ferments into beauty.
At this moment, I always feel that some impulse is brewing.
For example, holding hands, kissing...
"I... I heard that some places have already announced their admission notices."
Not sure whether it was to break the embarrassing atmosphere or to stop someone who was obviously ready to make a move, Tang Youxin spoke again hesitantly.
"Are you worried about entering the International Research Institute?"
The silent understanding made Xia Xu understand her meaning instantly, but at the same time, he shamelessly took Xiao Baihua's hand and pretended to comfort and solemnly: "Don't worry, I'm here."
Tang Youxin, who had made a mess of things, had a blush on her face, but it was also obscured by the darkness without any street lights.
"I, I mean I want to help as soon as possible."
She tried hard to pretend that she didn't notice someone's deliberate action.
"So how are you doing with programming?"
Xia Xu smiled like a fox who had successfully stolen a chicken.
"It should be fine."
Words relieved the pressure, and talking about business distracted her attention. Tang Youxin's tense body gradually relaxed. After hesitating for a moment, she gave a very 'arrogant' answer.
This kind of bragging is not her character.
But now she really wants to be able to help and have her own value, especially after being promoted by Xia Xu to a so-called formal investigator with a basic salary of 20,000 yuan a while ago.
Twenty thousand, and a basic salary with no requirements. This is absolutely unimaginable for any high school graduate.
If others received such treatment, they would be ecstatic. If it were a different location or a different boss, I'm afraid even she would be secretly delighted for a long time.
But here, she couldn't feel at ease with her white-collar salary.
The closer they were, the more she felt that the money was hot to the touch and she was worried about losing it.
In fact, she had tried very hard to help these days, but it was obvious that even if Xia Xu needed computer assistance, he would go to Meng Bochao and would not "bother" her.
So now she is very eager to prove herself and show that she is also capable of working.
Besides, I think I have learned it quite well, right
Obviously, it all seemed quite simple, and she could learn it easily even without the magic potion.
"This is really rare. My little white flower is actually bragging. It seems that I must test her."
Xia Xu chuckled when he heard this.
He was already very familiar with Tang Youxin's personality, so he understood her thoughts after a little thought, and said with a smile: "Did you see the mechanical centipede I tested before?"
"Um!"
When Tang Youxin heard Xia Xu's words, her eyes lit up slightly and her expression became serious.
"I want to try making these robots in a while. When the time comes, I will hand over the software system to you. Is there any problem?"
Xia Xu pretended to be skeptical and emphasized: "The robot's intelligent system is not as simple as controlling a remote control toy car. It is very difficult and complicated.
Many top expert teams now dare not say that they can develop a robot that can truly be put into practical use. The biggest problem lies in the software.
For example, how to control the action posture, how to analyze the road terrain, how to control the body's center of gravity, how to understand the filmed images, etc. These are all things you have to do. If you don't do them well, you can only make a shaky product."
"I, I will try my best."
Tang Youxin felt a little insecure after hearing what she said.
Although she has read a lot of books and learned a lot of knowledge recently, and the software written by Brother Meng seems to be quite simple, she has no practical experience after all. She is not sure about her current level, so she still feels very guilty.
"Then keep working hard. As long as you can do just a part well, you will be a top expert, with an annual salary of several million, you know."
Xia Xu looked serious at first, but couldn't help but smile at the end.
"Really?"
The little white flower's eyes were filled with infinite light and motivation.
Speaking of which, making a lot of small money has always been her obsession.
"Of course it's true. I have bought a technology company today. You will be my chief programmer then."
Xia Xu laughed in silence.
In fact, he was kind of thinking about trying to make some robots by himself right now. After all, with Pan Yuanhang's brain control technology and the centipede robot as a template, he should be able to make a combat weapon like the drone controlled by Duan Zhiyi with a little modification.
However, the most urgent task now is to find Duan Zhiyi.
Although the brain control technology is already in hand, Duan Zhiyi still has to keep looking for it.
If he is allowed to go crazy, who knows how many people will die. Coupled with his interference, the plot of "The Thrower" may not continue according to the original plot. If the villain BOSS Duan Zhiyi is never found in the end, it will cause endless troubles.
It would be better if he didn't know, but he couldn't ignore what was happening before his eyes, especially when he was affected by the whole incident.
Not for any lofty justice, just for the clarity of thoughts and for my basic emotional morality as a human being.
Ding ding ding~
Xia Xu originally wanted to comfort Little White Flower with a few more words, but at this moment, a retro cell phone ringtone rang.
Caller: Uncle Luo
"This is really a bit like if you mention the devil, he will appear."
Seeing the caller ID, Xia Xu couldn't help laughing.
Uncle Luo usually has a typical cold and aloof image. Even to people close to him, his attitude becomes gentler. It is obviously impossible to ask him to care about you and chat about family matters on the phone frequently.
If someone calls me at this time, it’s either because he has something going on, or he just happened to return to Star City and wants to say hello.
Regardless of which possibility it is, it shows that the special department may have already participated in the plot of the thrower.
The armed drone attack that Duan Zhiyi exposed just yesterday was already dealt with by the special departments today. This is very fast.
Even Xia Xu, although he had expected that the special departments would be involved soon, did not expect it to be so fast.
At this moment, he was also somewhat relieved in his heart. Fortunately, he got an unexpected surprise from Pan Long. Otherwise, he would be wishful thinking if he wanted to obtain the brain control technology from Duan Zhiyi before the special department.
