Chapter 256: Enter the fortifications
Lyle immediately stopped and turned sideways: "What's the matter?"
She smiled: "Time is not in a hurry, go slowly." ”
Charles turned, his eyes sharp, and saw the GI's feet retracted. Stared at it a few more times as a warning, and then continued walking.
The GI seemed to be a little bought by Charles, and lowered his head slightly, not daring to look directly into Charles's accusatory eyes. The table mates snickered gloatingly, it should have been nothing malicious, it was just too boring.
Finding a four-seater seat and sitting down, everyone began to eat.
Charles still eats quite quickly, while she eats more slowly. In the past, there was no need to eat fast, there was no need to go to the rest area, everyone was still eating, drinking, chatting, and when passing the customs, most of them were either running for their lives or dodging. When hiding, it is not required to eat quickly, but to eat without sound to avoid being discovered.
Lyle and Bill weren't eating very fast, either, but barely sound.
Charles finished eating again and sat there watching them eat. A phrase came up: "What did you do before?"
This question has been thought about for a long time, and she spat out: "Don't do anything, maybe after this trip, you will consider whether to get a diploma or go to your parents' small company to get a spare job." ”
The image of the three middle-class hangers, so that they can ask a lot less questions, anyway, they only know how to play, and they don't understand anything.
"Oh~" Charles asked again, "Then what do your parents do?"
She replied: "Tourist, small company." Their father's company sent people here to my country for tourism, and my parents sent people from my country to travel here. ”
Finance, real estate, technology and other industries are too professional, and if one can't say it well, it will be a goof. Presumably, as a high-level personnel of the base, there should be many restrictions, and you can't travel around at will.
Charles looked at her: "Then you can travel with a tour group, why bother so much on foot?"
"With the tour group?" she replied deliberately, "I feel like someone is watching all the time, so I'd rather stay at home." ”
Again, it makes sense, because they don't want to be restrained, so the three of them choose to hike, like free birds flying out of their cages.
In fact, if she asks which travel company it is, she can report it, saying that it is affiliated with the name of a big travel company, if you want to check, it will not be clear for a while, and these questions have long been thought through.
After eating, Charles carried the plate to the plate recycling point, and they followed.
When standing on the elevator, Charles pressed "-6", and looked at the buttons that were basically negative, and understood something... Underground fortifications.
The elevator door opened, and I saw a large iron door, which felt like it was at the door of a bank vault.
Charles used to put his hand on the scanner and scan his palmprints.
Lyle poked her, she followed Lyle's gaze, at the top of the palmprint scanner, there was a camera, but this camera was not monitoring, but an eyeball scan... Double identification, the security level is high enough.
"Poof~" There was a slight sound of air pressure, the door opened, and Charles walked in with them. The door was half a foot thick, and the only way to open it was to use explosives.
When you walk in, there is a long corridor, and if you have claustrophobia, you will definitely have a problem. At the end of the hallway, there was another door, and at this time the door was opened, and it went straight in.
It was a room, and there were two GIs with light traps on their backs.
One of them came over with something like a slab: "Don't move, trouble. "Looks like it's going to take a picture.
Lyle tried to dodge, but only hesitated a little and didn't move.
It's already here, so let's follow the locals. It's going to be dark outside, so let's save my life first.
After entering his face, he asked to put his hand on the tablet, and Lyle and Bill, as well as He Ningyan, did so. What else can I do now, one step at a time, is it possible to turn around and walk now, leaving the room, through the long hallway, and out of another thick door?
Maybe as soon as he walked down the hallway, he was slaughtered. In this place called heaven and earth, a person's life may be similar to a chicken, and when the chicken dies, it can at least be served on the dinner plate, and when a person dies, he may soon disappear in this world, not to mention the three of them.
And Charles had a little smile on the corner of his mouth, as if watching them with interest as they were swept on their faces and palm prints. He Ningyan pursed his lips at him and grimaced, which made the smile on the corner of Charles's mouth even thicker.
With everything out of order, Charles led them on.
When I entered, my eyes lit up, as if I had moved a building underground. The middle is hollow and you can see the entire building with a total of 11 floors. The layout is similar to the spherical rest area, except that the floors should be cubes, with a few more floors and more space. At the top of the building, there is a very bright lamp, which glows warmly like the sun.
This light should have ultraviolet rays or something, mimicking sunlight. Look at the flowers and plants in the corridor, they grow well, and there is no malaise at all from the lack of sunlight in the ground for a long time.
He Ningyan followed while looking at how many floors there were underground, there were no rooms there, and in the space of several floors, there were rows and rows of silver containers: "What is that?"
"Cryogenic freezer. Charles led the way: "Freeze the human body." ”
She frowned slightly: "Frozen corpses?"
"It's not. Charles smiled slightly: "Living." ”
Living... He Ningyan felt that his hairs were about to stand up, what were the frozen people doing?
Charles walks with a military posture, with a straight back and spirit: "Every country will establish a contingency plan to preserve the continuation of mankind. Whether it is the freezing of embryos or the human body, freezing technology will be used. ”
He Ningyan has heard: "Cryonics technology is currently only a few rich people who dream of being reborn after death daydreaming, being able to freeze the human body and travel through the long interstellar world, only science fiction movies have." ”
Charles didn't stop and didn't look back: "It's not science fiction anymore, reality exists." There are a total of 10,000 people stored here, plus frozen embryos, enough for humans to wake up and renew at the right time. ”
Looking at the dense low-temperature freezer cabins arranged in several layers, He Ningyan asked tentatively: "Now these freezers are not loaded with people, right?"
"No, if there were people inside, the monitor in the middle would be green, and now it's all dark. Charles stopped and looked sideways, with a bit of meaning: "I hope these freezers don't start." ”
The meaning is very clear, once it is activated, it means that mankind will suffer a great catastrophe and face the possibility of extinction.
"Ding Dong~" The radio sounded: "Lieutenant Colonel Charles, please go to the colonel's office as soon as possible." ”
During the continuous broadcast, Charles slowly took out a Bluetooth headset from the pocket of his uniform, put it on and responded: "I'm on my way to the office, and I'll be there in about a minute." ”
