The end of the world, the southern suburbs of Sioux City. [Full text]
A hundred-story high-rise building stands alone among the ruins.
Not far away, a signboard with "East Asia Electronics" engraved on it was tilted beside the road, replaced by "Crimson Chamber of Commerce" written in red paint, printed in the center of the high-rise building. The building's original owner had the "foresight" to use a large number of expensive and strong materials in the construction of the building. As a result, this building withstood a nuclear explosion that occurred 5 kilometers away more than 20 years ago.
Unfortunately, Radiation S eventually burned him to ashes. When the nuclear explosion came, he was taking the elevator to escape from the top floor office to the underground, but unfortunately he died on the 27th floor. .
This building changed hands several times during the apocalypse, and was eventually occupied by the Crimson Chamber of Commerce as its residence. The 100-story height is simply a natural watchtower that can monitor the situation dozens of kilometers away.
Standing on the top of the 100-story building, Lin Chaoen sat on the edge of the roof with his feet dangling in the air. He didn't care at all about the numbing height. He just squinted his eyes motionlessly and looked in the direction of Wanghai City.
He is indeed not afraid of heights, because that is an emotion that only living things can have.
Suddenly, he smiled and spoke.
"Sure enough, Wanghai City has changed."
"Is this predictable?" Standing two meters behind him, a man in a suit and leather shoes with a stern expression stood with his hands behind his hands, frowning and staring in the direction of Wanghai City. However, it was clear in the distance, and only the outline of Wanghai City was faintly visible. Apart from a few thin streaks of black smoke, he could see nothing out of the ordinary.
Cao Guangkai, the current president of the Crimson Chamber of Commerce.
Last winter, his father Cao Jinsong launched a coup to seize power in the Sixth District, but failed and died. After receiving the news, he made a prompt decision and led the soldiers loyal to him to execute his cousin, Cao Wei, his father's nephew, who was preparing to separate the family. In the end, he took over all the properties of the Crimson Chamber of Commerce and prevented the division of this huge business.
It was after that that he met Lin Chaoen and started cooperation with him.
a month ago. He followed Lin Chaoen's advice, withdrew the Crimson Chamber of Commerce's business caravan in Wanghai City, and liquidated the properties anonymously purchased in the Sixth Block in batches. Although he was still doubtful of Lin Chaoen's words at the time, he never expected that what the robot said would actually come true.
A wave of alien species has indeed broken out in Wanghai City!
"Of course. Everything in this world has its cause and effect." Lin Chaoen sighed and said leisurely, "For example, the economic crisis in 2150 was destined to break out this war. And that war The economic crisis started from..."
Cao Guangkai sneered. He said unceremoniously: "I'm not interested in hearing your deduction of history. I'm a businessman. I only care about the present and -"
"Shh!" Lin Chaoen suddenly interrupted him and put his index finger to his mouth.
Then, he put his hand to his ear, closed his eyes and listened.
"Listen, they are talking again." Lin Chaoen leaned forward with a smile, "Poor little bugs, tusk tusk..."
Cao Guangkai, who was watching from the side, frowned.
He suddenly had the urge to step forward and kick this idiot down.
But I thought I couldn't afford to be angry with a robot. He restrained this dangerous impulse.
"Pretend to be a ghost."
Cursing under his breath, Cao Guangkai turned around and walked towards the elevator.
"Aren't you curious about what I heard?" Lin Chaoen said lazily, tilting his head.
"I'm just curious about what mood your designer had in bringing you into this world." Cao Guangkai curled his lips and said sarcastically without leaving any trace.
"Probably... Well, similar to my father's mentality?" As if he didn't hear the irony in the words, Lin Chaoen shrugged and continued, "Speaking of which, I'm curious about one thing. Can you answer me?"
"Oh? Is there anything else you don't know?" Cao Guangkai smiled.
"Don't you want to take revenge on that man? He killed your father." Lin Chaoen asked with a smile.
Of course he was referring to Jiang Chen.
Because of the sudden intervention of the Fish Bone Base, the already tilted scale of victory fell to the ground, and all the chips were taken into the arms of that person. The mantis stalks the cicada, followed by the oriole. That's probably what it feels like.
"There is no father or son in the shopping mall. His 'investment failed' in Wanghai City and then he lost all his chips, that's all." Cao Guangkai said expressionlessly.
"You are really open-minded." Lin Chaoen smiled strangely, turned his head back, and continued to look at the sky in the distance.
"Although the Crimson Chamber of Commerce originated from the Sixth Block of Wanghai City, its base is in Su City, and its business is in Hang City and further away in Luzhou. I have always disagreed with my father's strategy of intervening in the local situation. Only by adhering to the identity of a businessman will I give We bring greater benefits." Cao Guangkai said calmly.
"Really?" Lin Chaoen asked slowly.
Just as Cao Guangkai was not interested in what he heard, he was equally not interested in the business experience of this businessman. In his opinion, no matter how these humans played with the sub-crystals, there was no difference between them and the magpies on the treetops.
They didn't even understand what kind of powerful thing they were holding in their hands.
"Yes." Cao Guangkai nodded.
Without answering any more words, Lin Chaoen just looked quietly in the direction of Wanghai City. He seemed to have seen something interesting, and he raised the corners of his mouth.
Cao Guangkai stood behind him silently.
At this moment, the communication device he placed on his body began to vibrate.
Cao Guangkai raised his finger and pressed it on his collar, then answered the call.
"Hello?...Yeah, I got it."
Soon, he hung up the phone and looked at Lin Chaoen, who was sitting on the edge of the building.
"What you want is ready."
"Really? That's great." The smile on Lin Chaoen's face grew thicker, he put his hands on the ground, turned over and stood up.
This action is nothing, but it is done on the edge of this 100-story building. .
Cao Guangkai thought he was calm enough, but just looking at his movements made his scalp tingle.
"Pharmacion formula." Lin Chaoen said when he passed by him.
"Oh, that thing." Lin Chaoen seemed to have remembered something, and took out a USB flash drive the size of a fingernail from his pocket, and said lazily, "Take it, it's all in here."
That recipe for a good time.
That is the ultimate phantom poison. product formula.
After taking the USB flash drive, Cao Guangkai couldn't help but hold his breath.
He felt his fingers tremble.
It seemed that what he held in his hand was not a USB flash drive, but a key to the Yajing Library.
All it takes is one pill to live happily before the war.
After admiring the expression on his face for two seconds, Lin Chaoen raised the corners of his mouth meaningfully, left him and walked towards the elevator.
Zoom out from the two of them.
I saw a six-story manned rocket standing in the open space one kilometer north of the Crimson Chamber of Commerce Building. (.)
