When relaying the news from Lian Qingmiao, Lian Runing has been paying close attention to Hao Jian's expression. She is worried that Hao Jian will not be able to bear the stimulation and will do something extreme.
However, she was obviously thinking too much, because Hao Jian just listened quietly, frowning occasionally, and asked, "No more?"
Lian Runing let out a sigh of relief as if she was relieved, this matter was really uncomfortable in her heart.
"My dad doesn't know much, that's all."
Hao Jian stared at her and twitched the corners of his mouth: "No wonder he didn't like to tell me about his thrilling and exciting adventures later, presumably he already has other admirers, he will pester him and ask him excitedly. What is on the road, what is on the mountain, whether it is dangerous or not, how close will the top of the mountain be to the sky. Then he will say, the top of the mountain is very close to the sky, but also close to death, and he will try to persuade him not to go this way road… "
Lian Runing rested her head on Hao Jian's shoulder, feeling rather uncomfortable.
Hao Jian patted her on the back lightly and said, "Actually, I don't seem to be as angry and hated as I imagined, because I seem, seem, have known about it."
"Hippocampus effect." Lian Runing caught her words.
"Well, the hippocampus effect... Anyway, he'd better be alive. After the end of the world, I'll go and collect the debt from him."
The system that disappeared for most of the day suddenly appeared: "The host does not have to wait until the end of the world."
"What's the meaning?"
"Congratulations to the host for triggering Main Quest 2: Go to Pearl City to find Hao Kan."
Hao Jian's heart froze, and he was very worried: "Does your system have to poke people's hearts like this?"
The system looks very innocent: "The task is triggered by the host, and it has nothing to do with the system."
"You arrange such a task, don't say it has nothing to do with you." Hao Jian only felt a headache and a pain in the face, and was slapped by the system. back.
Lian Runing felt that Hao Jian's expression was suddenly a little strange, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Hao Jian shook his head: "Go take a shower, I'll go for a walk first."
"Want me to accompany you?"
"No, I'll just walk downstairs." Hao Jian didn't want Lian Runing to find out that she was different.
After she finished speaking, she walked out of the dormitory, and Lian Runing watched her back disappear at the door before sighing and entering the bathroom to take a shower.
"It turns out that when the side quest of my main quest 1 has not been completed, can I take the main quest 2? That is to say, the main quest 2 and the side quest are not in conflict, they are related to a certain extent, while the main quest 1 Maybe it's related to Main Quest 2, maybe it's not related..."
The system made an unintelligible sound, and Hao Jian felt that he was speechless.
"Let me take a look... Main quest 2 was triggered on the premise that I learned that Hao Kan was still alive, and I had to know that he was in Pearl City and fulfilled these two conditions. It so happened that it was the little junior sister who told me all this. , maybe Professor Lian Qingmiao told me indirectly."
Hao Jian frowned: "So it confirms what I said, the characters in the main quest must be related, then... when your central system releases such a quest, you know that there is a necessary connection between them, and even the cause of the incident. , process, development, ending, I'm afraid you have already finished writing it?"
"Write?" The system wondered.
"That's right, don't you think it's all like the layout laid out by your central system? I have every reason to suspect that the zombie virus is actually yours."
The sound of the system seemed to be disturbed by electromagnetic waves. It only took a moment for it to return to its original sound, and it seemed to be more serious than ever before: "… Obtained permission to inform the host of relevant information, the Qunaytirah virus is the result of human research and experiments, the system number 2018 is a pity , and kindly informed the host that the zombies are the creation of human self-destruction. If the host has the ability to enter the high level of this country, he may be able to glimpse the face of the world."
"If that's the case, what's the reason for your existence? If you really do it for the sake of human beings and let human beings live, then you really shouldn't be looking for me, but for the higher-ups in this country."
"If the host wants to know more and is unwilling to become a high-level person in this country, then please continue to work hard to complete the task."
Although the system was still a mechanical electronic sound, Hao Jian could sense a slight threat.
Hao Jian smiled: "If you can really analyze my thinking information, then you will find that I don't like being threatened. Whether it is being threatened, or by you, 'maybe high-dimensional beings', 'maybe a bunch of them' The existence of data' is threatened."
Hao Jian's conversation with the system this time was a little unpleasant, and she couldn't tell if the system had angered her by asking her to go to Hao. It's not just her that has changed, at least in her senses, the system has also become humanized.
Of course, "humanization" does not refer to the existing form of the system, but it is more like a person than when it was first bound to Hao Jian. It will be secretive because of Hao Jian's thinking about the world. He would start to intimidate Hao Jian and threaten her like a person.
Maybe she is approaching the truth, and what will be waiting for her, no one knows.

Early the next morning, Hao Jian and Lian Runing got up to go for running training. People from the Refugee Management Office found Hao Jian and said, "Miss Hao, someone wants to see you."
"Who?" Hao Jian thought about it for a while, and there are hardly any people who can see her here and need to pass a message through the management office, even An Minghui can come straight to her.
"It's Huang Sheng, the commando you contacted before."
Hao Jian and Lian Runing were a little surprised, but they didn't expect him to come directly to find someone.
Hao Jian returned to the dormitory and took Chen Jin's ring with him before going to see Huang Sheng, and Huang Sheng was a sturdy man with a shaved head, keen eyes and a calm expression. At first glance, he was walking on the edge of life and death. Many people have come back.
"Hello, I'm Huang Sheng. I heard your message through the Refugee Management Office, so I rushed over after finishing the mission. Fortunately, you're still here." He stretched out his hand first.
Hao Jian shook hands with him, no more words, and cut to the subject: "Chen Jin asked me to bring you something, I think you have seen it in the photo."
Lian Runing took out the ring and returned it to Huang Sheng, Huang Sheng stretched out his slightly trembling hand, and his eyes turned red all of a sudden.
"Excuse me, although I didn't say it, but Chen Jin was still alive when I left."
Huang Sheng was stunned for a moment, then blinked his eyes vigorously, then grabbed the ring and asked with a little joy, "Is she okay? I thought something happened to her. Since she is okay, then she—"
"She said you'd understand when you saw the ring."
Huang Sheng looked at the ring, rubbed his fingertips a few times, and then looked up at Hao Jian: "Did she say anything other than this sentence?"
Hao Jian shook his head, and Huang Sheng said solemnly, "Thank you both!"
Seeing that he seemed a little sad, Lian Runing couldn't help but said, "She said you are a dedicated person."
Huang Sheng nodded: "Thank you, I know what she meant. She hoped that I wouldn't wait for her, and she was also afraid that something would happen to us, and then there would never be any news from each other, and she kept on guarding like this."
He said, took out a silver necklace from his trousers pocket, and put the ring on it.
When he looked at Lian Ruling again, his expression became very serious: "But since I know she is still alive, I will not give up on her."
Lian Runing said again, "You couldn't get in touch before, but now you should be able to?"
Huang Sheng nodded: "The encryption work of the new contact network has basically been carried out there, and then you can try to contact her. However, because the number of guards is too small and the workload is heavy, many times it is too busy. I really won't be able to find anyone, so I can't be in a hurry."
Hao Jian suddenly asked, "How is the situation outside now?"
"I can't say this, but I think optimistically, there are still us outside, it's actually not that bad!" Huang Sheng comforted, and solemnly thanked him before leaving.
Lian Runing took Hao Jian's hand and said, "I won't give up on you either, I will always be by your side."
Hao Jian stared at her, hooked her nose, and said with a smile, "That's fine."
The two were looking at each other affectionately, and a figure broke the harmony. When Lian Runing saw her brother jump out, she first subconsciously pulled Hao Jian behind her, and then asked, "Xiaoji, why are you here?"
Lian Ruji ate a steamed bun and said, "I saw you running downstairs very early, and then when I changed my clothes and came out to look for you, you disappeared again. I didn't see you until I came out of the dining hall after breakfast. Come and say hello when you arrive."
He showed Hao Jian a bright smile: "Sister Hao is early!"
"Morning." Hao Jian was still happy for Lian Runing's little move, and there was always a shallow smile on his face.
When Lian Ruji saw it, she was a little excited: Sister Hao was pretending to be live during the live broadcast, and she herself was not so sandy at all!
Hao Jian didn't know how thick the fan filter in Lian Ruji's eyes was, and she didn't have the heart to deal with him, but asked Lian Runing, "Are you still going to Buddha City?"
"My dad persuaded me to go to the lab to help him last night, so I don't know."
"That's right. I may be coming to the aunt, and it's not convenient to go that far, so I will contact Wei Guojia and leave Rumeng's safety to them."
Lian Ruji almost choked on the steamed bun when he heard Hao Jian's words from the side. Hao Jian looked back at him: "Sorry, I forgot that you are a boy."
What does "..." mean
Lian Runing held back her laughter: "Xiaoji, we girls are chatting, if you have some discernment, go play by yourself!"
Lian Ruji was slightly injured: "Sister Ning, why do I think you are becoming more and more like Sister Meng?"
"No matter what, I'm your sister!" Lian Runing patted his head, "Be good, let's play!"
"… "
After Lian Runing dismissed her younger brother mercilessly, Hao Jian remembered her conversation with the system, and said, "Can we visit Professor Lian today?"
Although she can't become a high-level executive, if she can obtain virus-related information, it may help her to solve the puzzles of this world.
At the same time, she is also ready to take on more tasks - according to the relevance of each task and the importance of the characters, she feels that such an important place as the Science Center cannot be without tasks.
Although she came here once last time, there may be no relevant points to be mentioned. Just like the NPC in the game, even if the player encounters it many times, it is impossible without the right time and without related events. task triggered.
Lian Ru Ning said: "It should be fine."
The two went back to take a shower, changed their clothes, and then went to the Science Center to meet Lian Qingmiao. It just so happened that Gao Ruosu was there, and Lian Qingmiao planned to take them around the Science Center.
Lian Qingmiao also told Gao Ruosu about the relationship between Hao Jian and Lian Runing, so when she saw Hao Jian again, Gao Ruosu was very grateful to her, and seeing that Hao Jian was young, she would inevitably ask her about her. life experience.
Lian Qingmiao and Lian Runing were both secretive, and Lian Qingmiao simply said: "Don't ask so much, I'll take you for a walk."
Gao Ruosu didn't know why her husband reacted this way, but she didn't ask any further.
At this time, a beautiful figure stepped on high heels and passed by. She saw Lian Qingmiao and Lian Ruling, turned her toes, and walked towards them: "Professor Lian, I heard that areas A3 and B11 are used in the rice experimental area of the nursery cultivation base. The results of the watering have already come out, is it convenient for me to take a copy of the data back?"
"Researcher Le, of course." When Lian Qingmiao talked about work, he became serious.
"But I'm not in a hurry." Leyan fixed her gaze on Gao Ruosu, with a polite smile on her face, "This must be Professor Gao, hello Professor Gao, my name is Leyan, from the hydrology research side. of."
"Hello." Gao Ruosu stepped forward to greet her.
After the two exchanged greetings, Le Yan turned her attention to Hao Jian who had been silent: "This..."
"Security recorder, Hao Jian." Hao Jian took the initiative to reveal his identity.
Le Yan was a little puzzled: "Security recorder? Sorry, I'm ignorant. I don't know what this profession does?"
"It's just a errand. Researcher Le doesn't need to care."
Lian Qingmiao said: "Young people are interesting in doing chores. A safety recorder is a specialist who records safety-related events and information."
Le Yan nodded: "Professor Lian is right. Miss Hao can be a safety recorder at a young age. She must have extraordinary abilities. I have always admired such people."
Hao Jian also nodded shamelessly: "I also think my ability is really good."
"..." Lian Qingmiao choked with Gao Ruosu for a while, while Lian Runing seemed to be calm because of the recognition of this matter in his heart.
Leyan also obviously didn't expect that she would take the polite remarks as real, but she just smiled and didn't say any more.
