Chapter 2: A New Beginning
It is a finger-sized, very thin silver chip that has been tucked into the recesses of the clasp with a thin adhesive tape, the same color as the strap.
If you hadn't known it before, you wouldn't have been able to see it at all, and it is estimated that it has been soaked in snow on the mountain for a long time, and the buckle just happened to be hit before it fell.
"Huh?" Jin Lixin took it in his hand and looked at it carefully in the sun, the words "C9847" were lightly printed on the edge of the chip, and the font was so small that the naked eye could distinguish it, and people with slightly worse eyes couldn't see it clearly.
Jin Lixin frowned, copied the letters on the sticky note paper, lay on the bed and drew casually, thinking in his heart, "C... 9847?" But no matter how much you think about it, you can't remember what these characters mean.
Early the next morning, Jin Lixin left the hospital with his only few belongings and strolled through the streets of Hehai City alone.
A sense of familiarity arose, and in the depths of my memory, I seemed to have been familiar with the city once.
After being blinded in the room for so long, Jin Lixin, who came out at first, felt refreshed, took a deep breath, and the pain on his body suddenly relaxed.
Located on the eastern coast, Hehai is one of the largest cities in the country and the financial center of the country, with rapid economic development, crowded and chaotic population, and a large-scale and all-encompassing city, with heavy industry chains such as ports, electronic manufacturing, and steel. Several well-known families in China are here, controlling a large part of the economic network of Hehai City.
"Well, there is no place for me to go in the big city. Jin Lixin thought that there were probably only two ways to try to get back to his past, one was to investigate the place where he was rescued, and the other was to start with this small piece of metal.
But no matter which one it is, you have to find someone to help you now, otherwise you can't go to the scene where you were rescued, and I'm afraid that the connected food will become a problem.
Thinking of this, Jin Lixin quickened his pace and walked towards Lin Peng's house on the outskirts of the city, and he could only ask him for help at present.
Jin Lixin quickly found Lin Peng's address according to the address registered in the hospital.
This is a small residential area, Lin Peng's house is a small two-story building with an independent courtyard, it cannot be regarded as very rich, but at least it can be seen that there are good economic conditions.
Jin Lixin hadn't seen Uncle Lin since he met him that day, and he couldn't care if there would be any inconvenience when he suddenly visited, so he stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Hey, who are you?" The one who opened the door was a young girl, wearing a loose pajamas, looking very bloated, with long black hair scattered on the top of her head, a thick mask around her eyes, and three layers of gelatinous liquid on the left side of her face, which made people sick to their stomachs.
Jin Lixin was startled by the face in front of him, if he got closer, he wasn't sure if he would instinctively punch him. He shook his head and asked tentatively, "This... Is this Lin Peng's home?"
"Oh, you look for my dad, he's upstairs, you come in first. ”
"Okay, thank you. Jin Lixin muttered in her heart, the girl in front of her should not come out and be scary.
"Dad, someone is looking for it!"
"Who?" Lin Peng stretched his waist and walked into the living room, "Jin Lixin, why didn't you come here in the hospital to recuperate?"
"I felt like I was almost fine, and it was boring to stay in my room all day, so I was discharged. ”
"The young man is in good health, few people are so seriously injured, and they can be as energetic as you in dozens of days. ”
"Haha, I was about to thank Uncle Lin for saving his life. Jin Lixin touched his head and said embarrassedly.
"You don't have to worry about that, anyone else would do it in that situation. By the way, do you remember anything?"
When Jin Lixin heard this, he shook his head in frustration, "I don't have anyone I know except you now, and I don't have any family. ”
"Still, I seem to have a clue. Jin Lixin helplessly squeezed out a smile.
"Oh, what is it?" Lin Peng asked curiously.
"Dad, who is he?" At this time, the girl just now interrupted the conversation between the two, and sat down with two cups of tea and a smile.
"That's what I mentioned to you, and I saved the young man on the mountain-Jin Lixin. ”
"What a strange name. The girl muttered softly, sat down beside Jin Lixin and stretched out her white and slender hand, "Hello, my name is Lin Xinyu." ”
Jin Lixin looked at the cute girl whose eyes were narrowed into a slit and was in a daze.
At this time, her face had been completely washed, a picture of snow-white and crystalline skin was lovely, her face was pure and beautiful, her hair was scattered to her shoulders, and she looked tall and slender in a tight-fitting cotton home clothes, which was very different from her previous image.
"Oh, you... Hello. ”
"It's a pity that although Jin Lixin is in good health, he has amnesia, he doesn't remember anything before, and his family can't contact him. Lin Peng explained to his daughter, but covered up the gunshot wound.
"Dad, then you must help him. Jin Lixin's tragic experience obviously stimulated Lin Xinyu's sympathy.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely help him. Lin Peng took a sip of tea and said with a smile.
"Then where are you going to go now, where are you staying?" Lin Xinyu asked with concern.
Jin Lixin had no choice but to shake his head helplessly.
"Then you can live here first, since my dad saved you, he won't look at you. Right, Dad?" Lin Xinyu looked at Lin Peng with a grin.
After lunch, the sun increased its power, and people felt lazy, Jin Lixin and Lin Peng stayed in the study and blew cold air.
"What is the clue you just said?" Lin Peng asked as he drank the strong tea in his cup.
"It's just..."Jin Lixin hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to tell the truth, I don't know if it was because Lin Peng saved him, Jin Lixin inexplicably trusted him in his heart, and took out the small metal chip from his pocket as he spoke.
"Uncle Lin, look, there is still the word 'C9847' on it. ”
"Hmm, it's an ORCP chip, right? I used to only hear about it, but now I see it with my own eyes, it is really a very high-tech integrated circuit, and the position of the chip read is also very special, and there should be important information about you in it. ”
"Well, do you know where there is a device that can read this chip?"
"This..."Lin Peng paused and said, "Our school may have such a decoder." ”
"School?"
"The school I work for is one of the biggest and best universities in Hehai City. It is funded by the state, including secondary education, higher education, scientific research and other national industries, abundant funds, environment, and talents, and the students in it are either top students from all over the world, or they are either rich or expensive, so the school's scientific research center should be able to do. ”
"Uncle Lin is a teacher?" Jin Lixin asked in surprise.
"Yes, my dad is the director of the School of Architecture at Huaxin University, and I am in my second year at Huaxin Law School. Lin Xinyu interjected while sitting cross-legged on the sofa next to her, full of sympathy for this young man with clear eyes in front of her.
"Can I go in and borrow it?" Jin Lixin looked at Lin Peng with some expectation.
"This... I'm afraid not. Because the high-end computer equipment is located on the 25th floor of the research center, this layer involves all kinds of confidential information documents, and many national scientific research projects come from here. Lin Peng frowned and explained.
"Is there any way to get in?"
"Is this... Except for insiders with a pass, the floor is not allowed to enter by ordinary people. Ordinary visitors and visitors can only move below the 20th floor. ”
"Oh. Jin Lixin put his head on the back of the chair.
"Li Xin..."Lin Peng watched his daughter walk out of the room.
"Every month, the school organizes a group of students to visit and learn about some new scientific and technological achievements, so you can take the opportunity to go in and think about it. Lin Peng also sympathized with Jin Lixin's current situation, so he said this unconventionally.
"Hmm. Jin Lixin looked at Lin Peng, his eyes were bright, giving him a sense of stability and tranquility, and he couldn't help but have more trust and respect in his heart.
After speaking, the two were silent for a while, and Lin Peng sat at the desk with his hands on his chest.
"Uncle Lin, why do I mix in with the visiting students and go in together?" Jin Lixin asked tentatively.
"This... It shouldn't be a big problem, just go through some small formalities. ”
"Thank you, Uncle Lin. ”
"However, the students who visited the institute building this month just went there yesterday, so it seems that you will have to wait until next month, and you can get acquainted with the school environment first. ”
