Chapter 987: Night Talk in the Study
Lin Ling, who had accompanied Yao Yao until five o'clock in her room, returned from Camp 27, and Sun Jiao and Xiaorou, who had finally finished their day's work, returned home one after another. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Satisfied, Yao Yao jumped down from Jiang Chen's lap with a "hey", took out an apron from the wardrobe and tied it to his petite body.
"There is a delicious steamed sea bass tonight, big brother can look forward to it, hehehe......"
The blushing little Lori left these words, turned and trotted out briskly.
Listening to the cheerful tune coming from the corridor, Jiang Chen couldn't help but smile, got up and walked outside the girl's boudoir.
When I came to the living room, I happened to meet Sun Jiao, who had just returned home.
When she saw Jiang Chen, Sun Jiao immediately pounced in surprise and kissed him fiercely on the face. Xiao Rou, who was standing on the side, looked at the two people who showed affection with bright eyes, covered her mouth and smiled softly. Only Lin Ling couldn't stand it anymore, complained a few words to the two of them viciously, rolled her eyes and hid back in the laboratory.
Because Jiang Chen came back, dinner was a lot more lively.
After dinner, Jiang Chen helped Yao Yao and Xiaorou clean up the dishes and chopsticks together, came to the third floor, and walked straight to the study.
Pushing open the door, Sun Jiao was standing in front of the window, looking at this side with a smile.
"I knew you were going to be here. ā
Walking in front of her, she reached out and hooked Jiang Chen's neck, staring into his eyes with eyes that flashed with longing.
Jiang Chen closed the door behind him, hugged Sun Jiao a few steps forward, kissed her deeply on the lips, looked back at her eyes full of longing, and smiled slightly.
"Yes, I know, you're going to be here waiting for me. ā
"There's no one around now. ā
"Do you want to be here?"
"It's better to stay until the evening," a little red cloud appeared on her cheeks, Sun Jiao bent the corners of her charming mouth, rested her chin on Jiang Chen's shoulder, and closed her eyes happily, "Now, I want to be held by you like this." ā
Leaning against the window of the study, looking at the snow that was almost fading outside the window, Jiang Chen only felt that the delicate body in his arms was extraordinarily warm. Faintly, he faintly heard a trace of distant singing from this silence.
"Outside...... Are you singing?" Looking out the window at the bright lights, Jiang Chen asked casually.
"A spring concert by a large orchestra in the sixth block will last from 8 o'clock to 12 o'clock in the evening. I don't know very well here, but if you're interested, I can accompany you to see it live. Sun Jiao said with a smile.
"Still no, I'm not interested in concerts," Jiang Chen shook his head with a smile, "But it's good to hold more of this kind of event, especially when it's peaceful." ā
As supplies grew more abundant and the survivors lived in abundance, they had to find something to do when they didn't need to carry guns to the front. Holding more of these cultural events will continue to contribute to social stability and will also foster a sense of civility among these survivors.
"There are a lot of female stars who woke up before the war, do you want me to hold a concubine selection contest for you?" Sun Jiao smiled narrowly, and in Jiang Chen's arms, she gently poked his soft underbelly with her fingers, "Many people are very interested in your heroic deeds." ā
"I have no heroic deeds. Jiang Chen coughed and staggered his gaze embarrassedly.
Sun Jiao looked at him with a smile and did not speak.
As the closest woman to him, she sees it all. Exterminate mutants, quell the tide of xenomorphs, recover the city center, destroy the rampaging artificial intelligence, and expedition to Hongcheng Yizhou...... Each merit taken out alone is enough to make a person proud for a lifetime.
And when these halos are all condensed in a person's body, no matter how humble he is, he is worthy of the name of a hero in terms of merit.
This has been the case since a long time ago, and the stability of the NAC has never been based on some slave collar or civic rank, but on the personal prestige of the marshal.
"Don't talk about that, right...... Is there any news from the Grave Keeper Sect?"
Hearing Jiang Chen ask about business, although he did not leave his arms, Sun Jiao also restrained his playfulness slightly, and replied after thinking for a moment.
"They sent 50 technicians from the city of Kamikyo to participate in the maintenance of the Aegis system before the war, and also participated in the research and development of the Colony Ship Shield technology after the war. ā
Hearing this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but ask.
"These talents have not been taken away from the pan-Asian cooperation?"
"It is impossible for a colony ship to take everyone, and there is no need to take everyone, Lu Minghui explained. Sun Jiao took over this topic with a word, and was corrected back by Jiang Chen's temporary interruption and crooked topic, "At the beginning of last month, the maintenance work of the Wanghai City Sacred Shield System had begun, but the repair of this kind of city-level fortification could not be completed overnight. ā
"How long will it take?" Jiang Chen asked.
Sun Jiao shook her head, "I don't know, maybe this year, maybe next year, maybe it will never be repaired...... However, for now, according to the feedback from our engineers, we have not encountered unsolvable technical problems for the time being. ā
Jiang Chen nodded.
The Xiaoice season has arrived, and this year's winter will only be longer and harsher than last year's. It would be best if the shield system could be completed before October, but if not, it would have to work more on the cold protection.
As a preparation, before leaving last time, he had already told Lu Huasheng to start cleaning up Wanghai Metro Line 1, and allocated a part of the budget from the loose finance to set up heating facilities, temporary living space, and spare necessities production workshops in the subway.
If the living conditions on the surface are too harsh, at least the civilians of the sixth block can be moved underground for the entire winter.
"By the way, a new shelter has recently opened in the northern suburbs of Hongcheng. The Director of the Vault has accepted our offer and agreed to be incorporated under the NAC banner, but after accepting the status quo on the surface, he would like to see you. Sun Jiao suddenly seemed to remember something and said.
"Really, where is he now?" Jiang Chen said with a smile.
If it's nearby, it's fine, if it's far away, after all, he won't stay too long when he comes back this time.
"In the 6th block. ā
Jiang Chen nodded.
"Tomorrow I'm going to go to the Sixth Block to see an old friend and have him wait at the Capitol. ā
The blue skins may be "ignorant of the world" and may not be treated well by the survivors, but for Jiang Chen, who hopes to re-establish order in this wasteland, these people are the most valuable resources in this wasteland. Even if they are not scientists, even if they are just ordinary people, they are well educated, and they have the reserved qualities that have long since disappeared in the ruins, which belong to civilized people.
The spark of civilization cannot be germinated simply by relying on guns.
When these people who "crossed over" from the pre-war period successfully integrated into the post-war society, perhaps they could bring a valuable and unique inspiration to NAC's path to the future.
Based on this alone, Jiang Chen felt that it was really necessary for him to have a good chat with the director. (To be continued.) )
