"Come," He Qin pulled him away in a hurry in the corridor, "How about taking it back now?"

He spoke cryptically, but Wen Zheliu knew what he was talking about. The infatuation turned into data and stayed in the uncanny valley, but they still maintained a tacit understanding of being connected. If one person said the first half of a sentence, the other could say the next. Half a sentence.

"It's a pity that they are safe and sound," Wen Zheliu and he ran through the wide corridor. All N company employees passing by looked at them with horrified eyes. He Qin's awakening was still a secret known to very few people, "With that pair of How stupid the couple is, it’s no less than a miracle that they haven’t been dragged into the uncanny valley by the Holy Nun yet!”

He Qin opened the special elevator and said with a smile: "The decision to keep them alive is also based on your face... After all, the blood relationship cannot be severed. If you are under one day, they have the right to take your parents' A relic for a day.”

The elevator door slowly closed, and He Qin whispered: "What we are afraid of is not that lowly and despicable family. We are only worried about the work of our uncle and aunt. They can hide you under N-star's nose for several years. If Violating their will, I'm afraid that relic will be in danger of being destroyed on its own... "

Wen Zheliu asked: "Are it my parents who hid me?"

"Who else could it be if they weren't them?" He Qin smiled bitterly, "It can't be those three hidden gems from your family, right?"

"... Well, that's not necessary."

"Take the elevator once," He Qin said, hanging a mask on Wen Zheliu's face and wearing one himself. "If too many people are seen, it will still cause commotion..."

The elevator door opened again, and He Qin's words were stuck in his throat. Only Wen Zheliu, with quick eyes and quick hands, took out a pair of sunglasses and put them on his face.

The overwhelming light was like a flood, hitting He Qin in the face. The peerless swordsman could only cover his eyes and cursed "fuck" in embarrassment.

"Yeah, this thing hurts your eyes a bit, I understand." Wen Zheliu patted him on the shoulder. Golden and green peacocks walked past the two of them in groups, and a male peacock looked at He Qin arrogantly. , spread out the brilliant tail feathers with a "swish", and walked away proudly.

He Qin: "..."

This scene was also very familiar to Wen Zheliu. The illusion of the second world almost simulated the overall situation of n-star headquarters, and this corridor called the "sky garden" was also included. He Qin wanted to understand the key and patted Wen Zheliu on the head in a state of laughter and laughter: "Little one, are you happy just by tossing me?"

The two people turned back from the "Sky Garden". Dozens of staff wearing sunglasses and black suits were waiting in the underground parking lot. Their exposed fingers were shining with mechanical paint, and they all had gun blades on their waists. With their daggers, the cold killing intent leaked out from these men, they were even more terrifying than desperadoes.

"Your Excellency, Executive Officer," the leading man saw He Qin coming in, and immediately followed him to report, "The target has been under surveillance and isolation since four months ago, and there has been no abnormal behavior as of three minutes ago."

"Where's the Holy Sister?" He Qin asked calmly, "She didn't do anything to that family?"

"The rebellious AI corps in the town have been basically suppressed. Several small and medium-sized electronic base stations have been destroyed. The military detection robot infected with the Holy Sister virus has sneaked into the target's house three times to conduct inspections, but found nothing."

"Rebellious... AI Legion?" Wen Zheliu was a little dazed, "What is that? Is it the Terminator? Is Schwager coming?"

He Qin led him to stand still: "It's just a small fight. The military keys are also connected through the Star Network. As long as the Nova City remains standing, the Holy Sisters will not be able to control nuclear weapons, which can have a real impact on the real world." .”

The guard had already brought in a vehicle covered by optical cloth. The captain whispered seriously: "Your Excellency, Executive Officer, this is a transportation device that Mr. Adeide directly transferred from his private treasury... It is completely in line with the requirements of strong concealment and high visibility." It has high camouflage, is light and sensitive, and meets all the requirements of drivers to respond promptly in unexpected situations! The gentleman said... this is the one that is best for you."

The members of the guard all lowered their heads and showed respect with their actions. After hearing these words, Wen Zheliu couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring. As a super giant economy that spans the world, n-star has already exceeded the expectations of ordinary multinational companies. It is no exaggeration to say that it is the only empire in the virtual world with the scale and wealth it possesses. Its owner has the top resources and power in the world. He is more like a king than a king. He can make the current CEO directly from his private treasury. What kind of undiscovered treasure will be the transferred private property

The dark cloth was lifted up by the captain's hand! The flash of light brightened the eyes of the two people. The silver-white paint craftsmanship, the small and slender body can carry two people, and the four bold Song Dynasty characters "Takeaway must be delivered" on the brightly colored incubator looked so solemn and shocking. !

He Qin: "?"

Wen Zheliu: "..."

"Ahem!" The captain coughed loudly, "Your Excellency, the executive officer, according to the highest instructions conveyed by Mr. Adeide, all electrical machinery may be invaded by the Holy Nun, and now is the peak time of delivering lunch in the city. Use this, You can easily blend into tens of thousands of delivery vehicles, and even the monitoring system of the Holy Sisters cannot detect your whereabouts immediately. It is the best choice for disguised travel!"

He Qin: "..."

Wen Zheliu finally knew why the team members were bowing their heads... because he himself was having a hard time holding back his laughter at the moment.

"...Great, you and I share the retro life," He Qinpi climbed onto the take-out motorcycle without a smile and said to Wen Zheliu, "Hurry up, sit behind me! Wait until this idiot company is punished by the Holy Nun. If it goes bankrupt, I will deliver food to support you!”

In full view of everyone, Wen Zheliu had no choice but to sit astride him in the same posture. The scooter started "chugging". Wen Zheliu hugged He Qin's waist and laughed so hard that he was dizzy.

The two people drove out of the underground passage under the cover of the entire n company and merged into the traffic on the street without anyone noticing. They were both wearing take-out hats and masks, which covered their distinctive facial contours. The surveillance system could only adjust After obtaining the disguised license plate and identity certificate, the records will show that at the previous intersection, a delivery boy's car hit the flower bed next to it and was therefore scrapped. Fortunately, a passing friend was able to give him a lift.

"Turn left forward and enter Xiacheng District." Wen Zheliu whispered. The closer he got to the familiar, cold home, the clearer his memory became. "You can change to another car. In such a big city, there is no People will travel across three districts to order takeout, and no merchant is willing to deliver it.”

"It doesn't matter." He Qin glanced at the steering wheel, "Liu Jianzhang... I mean your uncle was promoted yesterday and received a large bonus. The family did not dare to go out, but for the reason of celebration, He specially ordered a restaurant where his consumption level far exceeded his income, and generously tipped far more than the delivery fee... "

He laughed lowly: "Don't worry, everything is within the plan. He has been working as a junior supervisor for more than ten years, and it is time for him to be promoted."

"Well, nothing can count against you," Wen Zheliu said, "Then you can grab a lane...turn left and then turn right."

Looking at the increasingly familiar streets, Wen Zheliu couldn't help but be lost in thought. He had only been away for a few months, but he seemed to have lived a life that seemed like a world away. After the suppression war in the real world came to an end, many shops were still closed. , there were only scattered pedestrians on the street, mostly workers who used primitive means to transport materials. He looked into the distance and said softly: "I used to work there."

Fast food restaurants are still open, and restaurants are one of the few places that can still stay open amid the wave of AI riots. The burger icon on the signboard is flashing alone.

He Qin took a serious look and said nothing.

"Weekly salary calculation, an ordinary waiter's salary is 17 yuan an hour. As for me, even though I am a minor, it is included in the work-study program and is protected by the new labor law. I can get 20 yuan an hour," he continued, "Saturday and Sunday I went to work part-time because I couldn’t access the StarNet. I had to wait until the winter and summer vacations, when Liu Tianxiong had to attend cram school, and then the game cabin could be released... "

He Qin's hand tightened on the handlebar, and veins burst out on the back of his hand, as if he was about to tear the bear's chest apart in an instant, but he quickly calmed down.

"That's right," he said, "no wonder your level was so low when I first met you."

The wind howled, He Qin was silent for a while and asked: "...which way to go after turning right?"

"Go straight ahead," Wen Zheliu said. "After three more traffic lights, we will reach the residential area."

Wen Qian was sitting at home at the moment, wearing a sweater uneasily. A woman's sixth sense was usually very accurate. Her eyelids had been twitching since the morning, and she had an intuition that something bad was going to happen.

"Jianzhang," she called her husband's name, "Why hasn't the meal you ordered arrived yet?"

When Liu Jianzhang was promoted, he was in a good mood. He flipped through the newspaper leisurely and said absently: "If you order more, you must have to wait longer!"

Wen Qian said worriedly: "Don't bark so much. Tianxiong has gone to a classmate's house. How can the two of us eat it? We will have to throw it away by then."

"Oops," Liu Jianzhang waved his hand impatiently, "Don't worry about it. Keep the unfinished food for your son. If it doesn't work, throw it away. What are you talking about?"

The doorbell rang, and through the door panel, a man asked with a smile: "Is this Mr. Liu Jianzhang's house? Your meal has arrived. Please come out and get it!"

Wen Qian stood up in a hurry, manually opened the peephole and took a look. When she saw the takeaway merchant's hat, she opened the door: "Here, here! Thank you..."

As soon as the door opened, Wen Qian was immediately stunned: the person who came was so tall, with arms and waist, broad shoulders and long legs, blocking most of the light.

"Oh, is this Ms. Wen Qian... right?" The visitor laughed twice, "Your takeaway? Please sign for it."

He was wearing a mask, and Wen Qian couldn't see his face clearly. She could only hear his voice that told people to never forget it after hearing it once. After all, there are more than a few people who speak pleasantly, but his voice was as sentimental as a hook, which was enough. There are very few people who can even take away a piece of people's hearts.

"Ah... ah," Wen Qian nodded, "Yes, I just smell..."

Her expression changed.

Wen Qian threw away the pen in her hand like an electric shock and stepped back step by step. Her teeth chattered and she asked viciously: "You... who are you?! I'm not on the takeout list. Why do you know my name?"

Liu Jianzhang also stood up suddenly, cautiously took out the baseball bat at hand, and slowly moved toward the door.

"Is it an accident?" At this time, another young man's voice sounded behind the man, "Because I told him."

The man turned sideways and the young man at the foot of the steps took off his mask. Although his face was still a little pale, his features were handsome and his eyes were bright and clear. He said slowly: "Long time no see... uncle, aunt."

The baseball bat in Liu Jianzhang's hand clattered to the ground, and he lost his voice: "I heard... break, break a willow?"

Wen Qian also took a few steps back, as if she was petrified: "You're not... you're not being held in..."

Wen Zheliu walked in, and He Qin closed the door behind him. He was a little curious: "Guan? What did you tell them? Why did you say that I was locked up?"

He Qin also took off his mask and whispered a few words in his ear. Wen Zheliu laughed and said with emotion: "So that's it, this is retaliation."

Liu Jianzhang stared at him in surprise, but after not seeing him for a few months, he had the illusion that he didn't dare to look directly at the nephew in front of him. The young man's eyebrows were lowered, and he was not much different from his usual taciturn behavior in this family. However, the aura around him was not tolerant and shrinking, but something more majestic was hidden in his expression. He looked at Liu Jianzhang as if he was standing in the sky, standing on an unattainable cloud.

Liu Jianzhang didn't know where this change came from. He looked at He Qin behind Wen Zheliu. He had never seen this man before, so he could only regard Wen Zheliu's rash visit as a provocation. He scolded: "Wen Zheliu! Look at all the shady people you brought home!"

"Oh," Wen Zheliu said nonchalantly, "So this is still my home."

Liu Jianzhang was choked by him. Wen Qian took a careful look and said with a forced smile: "You kid, now that your head has healed... Oh, your hair has grown out. How can a person who has gone to hell behind a closed door still be like that?" You're so reckless, pretending to be a takeout delivery guy and scaring your family... Come on, come on, sit down, sit down!"

Seeing that Zheliu didn't move, she tried: "That... is your friend?"

"No," Wen Zheliu said calmly, "He's my boyfriend."

Wen Qian was also choked by him, and she didn't know what to say. Liu Jianzhang saw his ungrateful look and said angrily: "Look at your uneducated attitude! Your aunt cares about you , who do you show to me like you’re a dead dad?! You ran back without saying a word, and even called someone like this... "

His words were harsh. He Qin looked at him coldly. The huge murderous intention was so shocking that Liu Jianzhang swallowed the second half alive.

Wen Zheliu had long been accustomed to such bad words. He said calmly: "I wasn't hit on the head by the sign of the coffee shop, and I didn't stay in the hospital for the past few months. However, it's true that the door to hell has been closed for a while. of."

He turned to Wen Qian: "Have you ever gone to the hospital to see me?"

Wen Qian laughed unnaturally: "I went! Why didn't you go? But didn't the person in charge at the time say that all your medical expenses would be provided by Company N, and they wouldn't let us go to see..."

"That means she didn't go, right?" Wen Zheliu interrupted her explanation. Wen Qian couldn't answer for a while, and she couldn't keep the smile on her face.

"Forget it, I don't want to talk nonsense to you either." Wen Zheliu said, "Where are my parents' relics? Can you give them to me now that you no longer have the right to hold them after I become an adult?"

Even though Liu Jianzhang and Wen Qian were mentally prepared and vaguely guessed that Wen Zheliu was here for that thing, they still didn't expect him to be so straightforward, and they were both stunned.

"Speak, are you mute?" Wen Zheliu looked at them, "For so many years, haven't you relied on that thing to be so unscrupulous? Now you think I want to take it back, don't you want to? Have you remembered the consequences?"

"...you!" Liu Jianzhang was furious, "Don't you dare to slander others! We have raised you for so many years..."

"You can live in this city and buy this house with whose money?" Wen Zheliu looked around with a sneer, "Liu Tianxiong can successfully enter the school in this city and receive an education that is a hundred times better than before. Whose money did you take to support me for so many years?"

He looked at the pale faces of Mr. and Mrs. Liu and said word by word: "Yes, you have supported me for so many years, and nothing else. You are afraid that I will come back to settle accounts with you in the future, so you gave me a lot of advice. 'There is hard work even without credit', 'You must learn to be grateful as a human being', 'When you grow up, you must repay your uncle and aunt well'... Ah, don't I remember all of this clearly? Give me back my parents' belongings , how about I repay you for your hard work right away?"

He emphasized the emphasis on "repay well". Facing the young man's malicious intent, Liu Jianzhang felt his heart trembling and his legs weak, as if someone had pressed a knife to his neck.

"Indeed." At this time, He Qin, who had strolled around the house, also returned, "Although the place is a bit small, but without an annual salary and subsidies of one million, plus years of savings, I want to stay here Buying a house with full payment is nonsense. What does Mr. Liu Jianzhang do? Small supervisor of a building materials company? Oh, I forgot, starting from yesterday, Mr. Liu has been promoted to department supervisor, right? Come on It’s quite a bonus.”

Liu Jianzhang swallowed his throat and pretended to be calm: "You... who are you? It is illegal to check citizens' information privately. Do you understand?"

"Is it against the law?" He Qin curiously approached the jeweled enamel eggs placed on the rosewood shelf in the living room, and gently wiped them with his fingers. Liu Jianzhang's face turned green immediately, "Tsk, what are you doing with these poor fakes here? "

Wen Zheliu squinted at him in a funny way: "Hey, that thing is said to be the legendary Faberge Easter egg, specially bought from the auction to show off its appearance. It's very expensive. Liu Tianxiong will be beaten if he accidentally touches it. .”

"Faberge egg? That's it?" He Qin squirted, "Are you kidding me? It's just one of the five fake ones in the Virginia collection. It's not made of real materials. It's really cheap to put here. Already…”

"How do you know?" Wen Zheliu was a little surprised, "Is this something from your home?"

He Qin straightened up casually: "It doesn't really count. The prototype of this one was designed by Nicholas II and asked Fabergé to design it for his new wife Alexandra. It's called the Rose Egg. It turns out that it is indeed kept in the Virginia Museum. , was later sent to the He family’s old house as a commemoration of n-star’s 100th anniversary. When I was a child, I had a fight with He Rui and accidentally knocked it down. I had thirty-seven new diamonds put on it. My uncle I felt it was a pity and sent it back to the museum. Now of course it doesn’t belong to my family.”
