Chapter 114
Excluding them, there were less than 10 people in the room. None of them stood, and even sat down, as if reluctantly. Basically, they are lying on the ground or leaning against a mainframe computer. 8 men and 2 women, three of whom were young men, and the others were old men with gray hair.
In the center of the room is a large computer, about the size of a 5-meter-long conference table. There are a lot of buttons and logos on it, but very few of them are bright. Only a few insignificant lights flickered, indicating that the computer was still running.
And in a corner of the wall, there were several objects wrapped in plastic bags, and looking at the shape, it should be a corpse. On the ground, the countertop is full of instant noodles, biscuits, and some drinks and mineral water bottles. And in the other corner, there is actually a bucket-like thing, covered with a plastic sheet.
The ventilation system in the whole room is still working, but it doesn't smell very good. They guessed what was inside the bucket at this point. After all, the smell is really impossible to ignore.
Kyoto received their call 12 days ago. So they've been trapped in this room for ten days. There are generally no food reserves in the control room, so the weakness of these people at the moment is understandable.
"Don't look at it. There were just a few of us left. Those are starving to death. The voice in the corridor sounded again, and they saw that it was an old man leaning against the computer, even his eyebrows were white, his face was wrinkled, and he was estimated to be in his 70s.
Ouyang Zhi motioned for Chen Yan to come over, and his hand lightly touched the backpack. Then he said to the people in the room, "Let's eat something first." ”
Take some soft bread and milk out of your backpack. He didn't choose instant noodles. It's because these people are hungry, it's not easy to digest instant noodles, and they're all old men and grandmothers. These people's abilities should not be small, if they can be rescued, maybe they can get back to Doom City. In this way, his institute can add more staff. can buy people's hearts with a little food, he won't be stupid to let the end of the season take the lead.
Sure enough, seeing the bread and milk he took out, several people who were originally indifferent to the people who came in immediately got up from the ground like chicken blood. Grab the bread and tear open the package, and eat it in one bite.
"Don't worry. Hold your horses. I'm done eating. Beware of choking. Hey, hey, you're talking about you. Take a sip of milk. "Qin Qin is in a hurry. These people have a taste for him. You can't afford to lose easily. He had already put these people in the institute he was in charge of. As for the Kyoto base. Who remembers?
"Boss, don't be stingy, bring out some more apples. Helps with digestion! "It's all his subordinates, and of course we have to be courteous when we meet for the first time.
Chen Yan glanced at Qin Qin, but fortunately she still grabbed Ouyang Zhi's backpack and didn't put it down. However, these are all people who can be her grandparents, and she has also tried the taste of hunger, so she can understand their urgency.
"What a kind-hearted young man, little girl!" The only old woman was still chewing bread in her mouth, and she couldn't drink the milk, and she laughed and boasted.
"Here, eat an apple. To aid digestion, these are cotton apples. Qin Qin stepped forward when he saw the stitches, in his eyes, this was not a grandmother, but a researcher or person in charge of the *** project. Well, I don't know what the research direction of this grandmother is.
The others looked at these gobbling people, but they didn't look down on them. They hadn't ever been hungry like this, though. But think about it, if they were trapped in this small place for so long, without food or drink, and suddenly there were so many delicious foods in front of them, they would be the same.
After more than ten minutes, the people in the research center were full, drunk, and rested slightly. Finally relieved.
"Let's introduce us first. I'm Sun Aiguo, and I'm the vice president of this research center. These old guys are all project leaders in the research center, and the younger ones are assistants. ”
Apart from his name, there is no other introduction at all useful information. Isn't that something obvious? It doesn't need to be introduced at all.
However, even if everyone has an opinion in their hearts, they will not say it now. No matter how high your status is before the end, what experts teach, now, it's a drag. These people look like ordinary people.
But just because you don't talk doesn't mean you don't have an opinion. The crowd listened to their "brief" introduction, but did not say anything.
Sun Aiguo touched his nose and felt a little embarrassed. In fact, it wasn't him deliberately putting on the score. He still knows what their situation is. Not to mention the poor living environment, they have been without food and water for 2 days. Don't look at people who seem to be able to persist without eating or drinking for 5 days, they are healthy young people, they have old arms and legs, although they have not seen the light of day for decades, but the country has supported them as national treasures.
Food, drink, use, which is not special? They have never experienced the sin of these days, except during World War II. If it hadn't happened today, it was estimated that in another day, at most two days, there would be a lot more on the pile of corpses.
And they have been trained in secrecy, and decades of rules have long been etched. Now I want them to tell these people about the research center, even if they come here for help, he can't say it.
"Okay, old grandson, don't hide it. What else is there to hide now? The only old woman spoke.
"Hey." Sun Aiguo let out a long sigh.
"I'll tell you the truth. Let's start with the current situation. We hid here 12 days ago. There were 21 people who came in at that time, and only 4 were young, and they were still alive. Now we have 12 left, and the remaining 9, some of whom can't stand it and are finished, and some of whom are starving to death. There is also a serious injury, and there is no medical treatment. Right there, all we can do is bag these old guys. ”
Speaking of this, the people in the research center were very sad, especially the elderly ones. This research center has been established for decades, and they have been working together since they were young, and although their research projects are different, they have also grown up as assistants. A lot of people don't have families and have lived here for decades. Now that these old fellows are so desolate, how can they not sigh?
Sun Aiguo eased his emotions, took off his glasses and wiped them, and continued: "You can enter here, I believe you also have a certain understanding of this place. There are a lot of projects that we work on here. But in general, it's biochemical organisms. (To be continued......)
