5. Qingfeng City, White Market - on the way
It's cold
"White Lotus! Is your coffee cold? Xiao Jie's emotionless tone reminded, "Do you need to reheat it?" ”
"Oh!" Bai Lian raised her head, "Did you say coffee?" She didn't seem to be relieved from the memories of her first shift, and looked uncertainly at the coffee cup in front of her.
"Hmmm! The coffee is already cold, do you need to reheat it or make you another cup? "It's really a robot, and there's no warmth in its tone. Bai Lian was very uncomfortable with its tone at first, it didn't sound like the slightest pleasure in conversation, and it was pronounced purely for the purpose of conveying the meaning of the speech. After coming to this lounge many times and for a long time, she didn't care about Xiaojie's tone of speech. It's just that, at this moment, she has a little problem with its tone.
"Xiaojie! Why do you speak so calmly? Bai Lian took a sip of cold coffee, and a strong liquid rolled from her mouth into her throat and lay down in her stomach. Bai Lian frowned a few times, "It can even be said to be a pronunciation, you are really a cold-blooded robot." ”
"I'm sorry! White Lotus! I'm set up here. Xiao Jie pointed to her head, "To answer your question, you need to combine N more than 0101." I've heard you humans say that numbers are cold and don't allow the slightest warmth to come in. Its tone was as sensible and calm as ever.
"Let's warm it up for me!" Bai Lian pushed the cup in front of Xiao Jie, "Understand, understand!" Because 01 is not a cell, and it is not our mind. Your body is already lacking in temperature, what more can I ask of you? I'm just a fool to talk to you about this. Oh! Oh, my God! What's wrong with me? Actually struggling with a robot. You'd better move quickly. As she spoke, Bai Lian turned into self-talk. She looked at the sky outside the glass, it was rainy, and the city was gray.
Let's go
Xiao Jie warmed the coffee and put it back in front of Bai Lian. Bai Lian's headphones came from Dongfang Ming's voice: "Xiaobai! We'll leave in half an hour, you're ready! ”
"Thank you for the coffee!" Bai Lian drank the coffee in the cup in one go, and there was a "bang", and the bottom of the cup smashed on the table, "Thank you!" Let's go. ”
"Good!" Xiao Jie's emotionless words sounded behind Bai Lian.
Bai Lian walked to the equipment room and registered her name. The watchman took her inside, and she chose her usual weapon, and for the first time, she brought a *capsule.
"Are you ready?" Dongfang Ming saw Bai Lian return to the office and observed her demeanor, which was no different from usual, "Let's go!" This is an important task that we cannot afford to miss. The company arranged support for us. ”
"Okay!" Bai Lian straightened up, "Always be ready!" ”
Bai Lian knows that before leaving, she must raise her momentum, not only to reassure her partner, but also to cheer herself up.
The two walked out of the office and arrived at the departure room, where they received a land and air car, and the two sat in the car. The car started slowly without driving.
"Good luck with your mission." The supervisor's voice came from the speakers in the car.
"Roger!" The two men replied in unison.
Dongfang Ming opened the navigation and typed in the destination: Baishi Yellow River District. Navigation under the command of the Beidou satellite, quickly search for paths and routes. Dongfang Ming balanced and chose the fastest path. It takes ten hours to reach the destination.
"We need to set the human sleep pattern for eight hours." Dongfang Ming didn't ask for the white lotus, and directly set it up, "Leave two hours to adjust our body." ”
The car is on autopilot. The two of them immediately fell asleep to a hypnotic music.
Unmanned
At four o'clock in the afternoon, there were very few vehicles on the city roads. The traffic lights are automatically adjusted according to the flow of traffic, and there are five lanes in one direction, and the cars they are riding in are unobstructed, and the number on the horse racing watch shows "140". The hypnotic music played just right, and the two of them fell into a deep sleep. The car passed through the blocks, gradually moving away from the center of the city and heading out of the city.
Half an hour later, the car drove out of the city. The speed of the car is raised, and the number of the horse racing watch shows "180". Even though the speed of the car is already so fast, there is not the slightest bump in the car.
The car was passing through a garbage disposal site. Piles and piles of garbage, all over the mountains. A lot of people in ragged clothes, with smart lights, climb up mountains and climb down the garbage heaps, and they look for all kinds of useful scraps. Garbage disposal workers, operating large machines, are constantly splashing combustibles, breaking down enzymes, and digging ...... Garbage in different areas: burned, biodegradable, deeply buried......
An hour later, the car passed through the industrial area. The lights were shining brightly, illuminating the dark sky. Countless robots, under the command of the monitoring station, started work in an orderly manner. At night, they seem to work harder, working at full speed, making all kinds of products. The sound rumbled and resounded across the land within a radius of fifty kilometers.
An hour and a half later, the car arrived at the flight area. Under the setting, the vehicle slowly lowers the lower wheels, and a thruster sticks out of the rear of the vehicle.
"The vehicle goes into airplane mode."
With the sound of automatic announcement, the vehicle takes off into the air and smoothly ascends to the flight path. The route of the car is all set at a height of 1,000 meters above the ground, below or above this altitude, and the owner of the vehicle is blacklisted.
White Market
The car flew over mountains, rivers, forests, cities...... At 0:00 in the morning, when Bai Lian and Dongfang Ming woke up, they landed from the flight area to the road.
"It's only two hours away from our destination." Dongfang Ming woke up for the first time, "Let's mobilize the body's functions as soon as possible." ”
It is the first time for Bai Lian to walk such a long way on duty. Curious, she turned on the telescope with night vision. She saw the scene outside, a brightly lit city, standing on a vast plain.
"You hurry up and turn on the function of the seat......" Dongfang Ming patted her on the shoulder, "Time is running out." ”
White Lotus wanted to see more, but they were here to hunt, not to visit. She sat back in her chair and moved her body with it. The sleepy cells gradually woke up, and their heads became more and more awake. The strength is like the wind, blowing through the body in bursts, and the whole body is full of vitality.
As they regained their energy, the car was approaching the outskirts of the city.
A sign with the words "White Market" written on it hangs high above the gate to enter the city. Through the front windshield, White Lotus saw the city. This city is also like the city where you live, with reinforced concrete houses, like tall trees, and another forest city. Even the layout is not much different, and if you think back to the more than 100 cities I have visited, their layouts are all similar.
Humans tend to have the same tastes!
A massive god, hiding from the highest point of the universe. He didn't want humans to bloom and disrupt his life, so he held a baton and controlled human behavior remotely.
Over the course of countless generations, humanity has gradually come back together.
"It's not interesting." White Lotus seems to have forgotten the task and fallen into the whirlpool of "unification", "Boredom." ”
