Chapter 600: Seven Deadly Sins in the Cyber Age (7)
"Sister Hou hasn't finished get off work yet?"
“Just throw the waste materials into the trash can outside and prepare to leave.”
In the corridor, Hou Xiaoqin pushed a cart full of experimental samples and answered colleagues who greeted her with a smile.
At this time, Song Yuesheng was curled up in the narrow special secret compartment at the bottom of the cart, which was only big enough for her to squeeze through.
Another colleague came forward, his eyes fell on the cart, and asked curiously: "Sister Hou, why didn't you let your assistant do this kind of work? How about we give you a hand?"
As he said this, he pretended to go forward to help.
Hou Xiaoqin's heart skipped a beat, but she still had a smile on her face. She quickly waved her hand to refuse: "These waste materials are complicated to classify. You are not familiar with the process. If you are not careful, something might go wrong. I'd better do it myself."
As soon as she finished speaking, she pushed the cart away in a hurry. Her steps were a little faster than before, and the "gurgling" sound of the cart became more and more rapid.
Hou Xiaoqin was filled with anxiety at the moment, and just hoped to leave the gate of the Paradox Tower safely as soon as possible.
She secretly complained in her heart.
It is said that the sayings about auspicious and unlucky days in ancient times are not credible, but I am extremely unlucky tonight.
The autonomous consciousness of bionic people has clear scope and limits. The bionic person in front of him looks very similar to Miss Song, but his behavior is exactly the same as that of humans, which makes him very difficult to deal with.
Ugh.
After all, I am an expert in studying bionic people, but just now my holographic bracelet was taken away by this bionic man and I was threatened by him.
The holographic bracelet is a symbol of identity for residents of the Neon District.
Only one per person.
The re-application process is cumbersome and time-consuming.
Before getting the new bracelet, he was forced to go to the fork in the road where the second-hand dealers gathered.
The place was dirty and messy, and radioactive cockroaches from the slums often appeared. It was simply a nightmare place.
Therefore, she had no choice but to not only reveal the information about Bai Yanzhi and Song Le, but now she had to rack her brains to find a way to safely send this bionic man out of the Paradox Tower.
When she thought of this, there were only two words left in Hou Xiaoqin's mind: bad luck.
Along the way, people kept greeting her and asking similar questions. Hou Xiaoqin responded mechanically, thinking only of leaving quickly.
Finally, she saw a ray of hope—the main entrance to the Paradox Tower was right before her eyes.
Hou Xiaoqin took a deep breath and pushed the cart steadily towards the main entrance.
One step, two steps...
He walked out unhindered.
Eh?
Hou Xiaoqin couldn't help but stop and look back in confusion.
At this moment, several men with stern expressions and dressed in black came towards them.
She pretended to be calm, forced a professional smile on her face, walked forward, and tried to make her voice sound steady: "You guys are in such a hurry, haven't you caught the android yet?"
Rocco's eyes fell on the cart like a knife, and a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes: "What's in this cart, Professor Hou?"
"The discarded experimental materials should be taken to the trash can outside for sorting."
Hou Xiaoqin pretended to be calm and lifted the white cloth covering the samples, revealing rows of neatly arranged laboratory instruments.
Rocco reached out and knocked hard on the cart.
Song Yuesheng stayed in the secret compartment, and the knocking sounds from above could be clearly heard.
She was curled up, her body pressed tightly against the inner wall of the secret compartment, with no room to move. She felt so stuffy that she was almost suffocating, but in order to leave smoothly, she had to bear it in, not daring to breathe.
Fortunately, Luo Ke did not notice anything unusual and bowed to Hou Xiaoqin to apologize: "I'm sorry, Professor Hou, I took up your time."
Hou Xiaoqin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but still had a smile on her face: "It's okay, it's okay."
After saying that, he pushed the cart and continued moving forward.
But after walking for a while, Hou Xiaoqin stopped again.
Wait a minute.
What did she find strange just now?
Hou Xiaoqin frowned and tried hard to recall, but the only scene in her mind was the meeting with Rocco and the others just now.
Forget it.
Teacher's famous saying: Things that you can't remember are not important.
When she arrived at the light board barrier, Hou Xiaoqin first put the waste materials into the trash can, then quickly walked to the cart and opened the secret compartment at the bottom.
Song Yuesheng crawled out and stretched his stiff body.
Hou Xiaoqin stretched out her hand and said unhappily, "Hey, mirror image, it's time to return the bracelet to me."
Song Yuesheng smiled slightly: "I just told Miss Hou my name. Forget it this time. I accept the official standard term "mirror body". I look forward to working with Miss Hou next time."
As she turned around, she threw the holographic bracelet towards Hou Xiaoqin.
Hou Xiaoqin hurriedly took it and put it back on her wrist.
When I looked up, Song Yuesheng was gone.
Hou Xiaoqin stamped her feet madly and angrily called out all the derogatory terms for bionic people.
"Glass puppet, mindless genetic rag, sooner or later I will tear down your charging coffin!"
**
The currency of this world is called "Celadon Dust".
A small round metal core with a diameter of no more than 2cm and a sun pattern engraved on the surface.
The original owner didn’t have it at home.
She tried to take those high-tech means of transportation in vain.
You can only take the free hoverboards on the street.
Half an hour later.
Song Yuesheng came to another property of the original owner.
The convenience store is called "Daytime Sleep".
Also two floors.
There is a faint fluorescent sign placed on the door and at the entrance.
Opposite is a holographic fountain, and on the left is the abandoned track of the suspension train. The river behind, according to the map, is the upper reaches of the underground river in the slums.
The gray cat tile looked like it had had a big meal, with rice crumbs stuck on its whiskers.
It was lying lazily on the bluestone table at the door.
Song Yuesheng walked to the door and entered the palm print password at the access control.
With a crisp "ding" sound, the door slowly opened.
Hearing the sound, Wadang stretched slowly, stretched his body, and with a "meow", he jumped lightly from the bluestone slab and walked towards the store.
The belly is round.
Song Yuesheng couldn't help but chuckle: "You really eat a lot."
Wadang shook his head and meowed, then ran straight to the soft chair facing the door.
He curled up his body and continued to sleep soundly.
Being so familiar with the route can only mean one thing.
That is, the original owner had woken up before, but was locked in a sleeping cabin because of something.
There are many shelves on the first floor, and the products sold are also varied.
But apart from food, Song Yuesheng doesn't know what the other products are used for.
**Yes, but she knows too little about this world to fully understand it.
Song Yuesheng originally wanted to eat some bread to fill his stomach, but it turned out that the bread had expired three years ago.
The food area is all of it.
Other types of products have a shelf life of up to fifty years.
Song Yuesheng put the box with "Beauty Cream" written on it back to its original place and couldn't help feeling shocked.
I didn't expect that cosmetics in this world can be stored so well.
But she was hungry.
Song Yuesheng rubbed his belly and went up to the second floor holding the handrail of the stairs covered with vines.
She didn't notice at all that Wa Dang came to the cash register.
I saw Wadang gently touching the low-legged cabinet on the left with its question mark-shaped tail.
Then, it skillfully took out five or six bags of bread from the cupboard, exactly the same as the ones Song Yuesheng took at the beginning.
It placed the bread one by one in the most conspicuous place at the stairs, and then lay quietly beside it.
the other side.
After Song Yuesheng finished visiting the four rooms on the second floor of the convenience store, he exchanged food with the sparrow spirit and tasted it in the bedroom.
There was no identifying information on the second floor.
Fortunately, two of them are a study and a pharmacy.
And the medicines in the pharmacy are not expired.
In this world where almost everyone is sick, medicine is the biggest way to make money.
And the study can help her understand many things better.
Went downstairs.
Song Yuesheng saw the bread at the stairs at a glance.
The gray cat was squatting nearby, licking its paws contentedly.
"Wall tiles, these are expired and cannot be left lying around."
Wadang shook his head, took two steps, then turned to look at Song Yuesheng, motioning her to follow.
Song Yuesheng was full of doubts and followed Wadang to the cashier counter.
After opening the cupboard, she found that all the breads were produced at the beginning of the year.
Song Yuesheng suddenly became more confused.
The book says that the fingerprints and palm prints of humans and bionic people are different.
Even if the bionic human is created by extracting the genes of the original body, the genes of the two are different.
The convenience store door is closed. Who would put the bread produced at the beginning of the year here?
Song Yuesheng poked the cat's head and was about to ask it how it knew there was something here when the door of the convenience store was knocked open and a man covered in blood staggered in.
At the same time, the cracked bracelet she was wearing made a tiny buzzing sound.
