Volume 1, Pot of Gold, Chapter 628, Director's Diary

Next chapter

The two waited for a long time at the door, their rifles pointed at the entrance not far away.

However, after a long wait, there was still no movement there.

"......Someone got into the power room and refilled the fuel rods? Li Wang: They are guarding the entrance to the shelter, and no one should come in. Jiang Chen threw the rifle behind him, took out the case-sized drone terminal from the storage space, and placed it behind the bunker on the side.

More than a dozen hummingbird drones flew out of the terminal's "hive" and hovered around the hallway.

"What are you doing with the drone?" asked Sun Xiaorou curiously.

"I always feel panicked when it's empty, so let the drone stay outside, and we go in to search for useful information. Patrolling rules were set on the terminal, Jiang Chen glanced at the entrance of the black hole and walked towards the door of the director's office.

Stepping through the iron door, Jiang Chen saw a skeleton in the director's uniform in the room. He had a pistol lying in his hand and a diary, which looked like he had committed suicide.

"Somebody has been here, and it wasn't that long ago. Poked the skeleton's chest with the muzzle of the gun, Sun Xiaorou frowned slightly.

"How can you see it?" Jiang Chen asked, picking up the diary from the ground.

"Didn't you notice anything wrong with this dress?"

"What's wrong?"

"The director's office is a refuge within a shelter. The door we opened to Guò just now is equipped with an ultraviolet sterilization device, which means that this room is a sterile room. In a sterile sealed environment, the decay rate of the corpse is very slow. More than ten years is a long time, but it definitely doesn't make him look like this. Sun Xiaorou said.

That's true.

More than ten years is a long time, but it didn't make him rot so completely. And according to Sun Jiao's recollections, the director should have been in the camp on the ground at that time, directing the security forces to fight back against the marauders, and there was no reason to appear here.

Someone, for some purpose, moved the director's body from the surface to the ground. Or maybe some other corpse, just dressed him in the clothes of the head of the vault.

Jiang Chen looked around, trying to detect some clues from the surrounding environment.

However, it's a pity. He doesn't have the talent of a detective.

"Someone has been here, and then the body of the director has been brought from the outside and something has been taken from here. Jiang Chen muttered to himself as he looked at the diary in his hand. And left this notebook. ”

That's all I can say. Sun Xiaorou pressed her index finger against her lower lip and frowned slightly, "Maybe the federal president has already come, and he also replaced the fuel rods in the power room when he came, so when we started the door of the director's office just now." Since they have already gotten something from here, they naturally don't care about Ji Yucheng leaking the password, they just want to get rid of him and keep this eternal secret...... But that doesn't make sense. If they wanted to keep it a secret, there was no reason to leave a clue like a diary. ”

Looking at the right diary in his hand, Jiang Chen fell into deep thought.

Jiang Chen sat on the chair and opened the diary. At this time, he was surprised to find that the footer position of each page was neatly painted with a black pen. The place that originally belonged to the date was artificially withheld, for some unknown reason.

[The shelter is closed for a week.] We can still receive information from the outside world. However, in order to take care of people's feelings, we decided to report the good news and not the bad news, and Energizer blocked the bad news of the PAC, and encouraged people that the nuclear war would soon be over, and NATO could not be our opponent. 】

……

[In the first year, we spent the Spring Festival in the shelter. From today onwards, we will no longer receive information from the outside world. The front line of the war has shrunk to the Hongcheng area, and for safety reasons, the shelter has gone into a state of radio silence, completely cutting off all contact with the outside world.

It's an indescribable feeling. It's like walking from a civilized society into a forest. It was dark for us outside, and in order to survive, we had to choke ourselves by the throat and plug our ears. Don't make any noise. I don't believe any false information from the outside.

The doors of the Vault will not be opened until the years of lockdown. 】

[First year and three weeks.] The work is similar every day, and the food eaten every day is similar. In order not to make the journal seem too boring, I have made it a habit to keep a journal every other week. However, it seems that the boring days will soon pass, and today I was suddenly found by someone, who claimed to be an observer and an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. He claimed to fulfill the orders given to him by the PAC. Hope that I will cooperate with him in the refuge to carry out the real yàn.

He did show me the paperwork with the signature of my superior.

Anyway, being idle is idle, so I agreed to his request. However, there is a premise that the lives of the residents of the hài shelter must not be endangered. As the director of the shelter, that's what my job should be about. 】

[In the first year and four weeks, the real yàn began. However, although it is a real thing, it actually means that the blood of each resident is regularly drawn for testing, and there is no impact on the normal life of the residents of the shelter. I noticed that he had a list on his hand, and some of the names were circled behind them. I asked him what the circle meant, and he didn't answer me. 】

[In the first year and five weeks, after a week of work, he approached me and told me that it was time to move on to the next part of the trial. I asked him what he needed to do, and he sued me to arrest all the people on the list who were marked with emphasis.

It's vexatious, and even though I'm the head of the shelter, it doesn't mean I have the right to do whatever I want.

He threatened me, the highest directive from my superiors, to carry out the plan as soon as it was confirmed that the vault would be locked down for a long time. If I disobey, I will be considered treason. 】

[Well, I compromised, you bear all the consequences yourself, hell the task, damn it!]

I reluctantly gave the order that the survivors on the list were tested for some kind of terrible genetic virus and were to be forced into a dormant chamber to wait for treatment in the future.

Speaking of which, there is also a little girl under the age of age on the list. It was so cruel to take the child away from her parents that I crossed her name off the list...... Am I doing a good deed?]

[Luckily, the mission was completed smoothly and did not cause much panic inside the shelter.] xxx's real yàn officially began, and all the popsicles that were put into the freezer were his real yàn products. 】

……

[The first year and nine weeks.] It wasn't until today that I discovered that this so-called "observer" appointed by my superiors had shelter privileges that were not inferior to mine. I can mobilize the security plane, and he can order the security plane to lay down his arms. As for why I found this...... Well, we're at odds. He asked me for the girl who had been crossed out from the list, and I asked him to reveal the truth. He refused on the grounds of confidentiality, and I retreated and asked to confirm the health of the real person, which was also rejected by him. 】

……

[It's so wicked!What did I find!What did I do!How could he trick me into doing such a dirty thing!Can't wait any longer, we have to do something.] Even if the machine obeys his orders, my soldiers will still be loyal to me!]

[Today, I organized the security forces. We stormed the real yàn room and found the people on the list inside...... of corpses. 】

[All the people who invaded the real room reached a tacit understanding and kept their mouths shut about the people outside.

I've found that in a closed environment, people are far more vulnerable than they think.

We can't drag it out any longer, we have to get out of here as much as we can.

Once we reach the lowest enclosed environment, we leave here.

The darkness here is simply suffocating. 】

……

[To exchange the sacrifice of some for the eternal life of another, I refuse to carry out such an order.] 】

The middle of the journal is torn out of the pages, and only the first two years of the Vault's closure are recorded.

However, from those words, Jiang Chen still sorted out the information hidden in this diary.

Is it an observer again?

That Academician Qin is also, using the evolution of Vault 27's simulated civilization in an isolated environment.

He couldn't help but wonder if all the shelters were carrying out such an almost evil practice.

"Xiaorou?" Jiang Chen put down the diary in his hand and took a deep breath.

"Huh?"

"Do you remember your life in the Vault?"

"Most of the memories are very vague, but I remember everything about my sister very clearly. My sister at that time was very cute. Sun Xiaorou said with a smile.

"It's not about Sun Jiao...... Do you remember a year when a lot of people disappeared from the shelter?"

Hearing Jiang Chen's question, Sun Xiaorou couldn't help but shake her head and said.

"Brother-in-law, please pay attention to the next time. The diary entries ended nine weeks after the first year, before I was born. ”

Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, but also reacted.

Closing the diary, Jiang Chen got up from his chair.

"It's not early, since there are no clues worth noting here...... It's almost time to go. ”

Sun Xiaorou was still unwilling, and searched carefully in the director's office, but still did not find any useful clues.

Sighing, her expression couldn't help but be a little frustrated.

"It looks like I ran for nothing today. ”

"Not necessarily. Jiang Chen patted the diary in his hand, "I still found a lot of useful clues." ”

"That diary isn't necessarily true. Whether it's the location of the diary, or the traces of those alterations, it's too much of a coincidence. Sun Xiaorou reminded.

"I know. Jiang Chen nodded, "But this is our only clue, we just need to find that observer next...... If he was still alive. ”

There is also the whereabouts of the observer, which is not recorded in the diary. Or it was recorded, but it was artificially torn away. If he hadn't died, then the secret of eternal life would have been in his hands. But thinking of this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but have a little headache.

Finding such a big living person in the wasteland is even more difficult than the Mother of Dead Claws-

(Wuhan has cooled down here, I had a little cold last night, and I didn't feel well in the morning.) So today's update is a little late, sorry. (To be continued.) )
