When he walked out of the warehouse gate, Shen Changwen came out with Wu Xiaoqing.

Both of them used to smoke very little, but now they both lit one.

There are very few people in the underground garage of the Skyscraper, and there are not many cars. The parking lot has just been renovated once a year ago, and now it looks sparse. It was close to evening, and the light was a little dim, but the lights were all off. Wu Xiaoqing and Shen Changwen walked silently in the darkness for a while, smoking silently.

Until a cigarette was almost half smoked, Wu Xiaoqing pressed the cigarette against the wall and snuffed it out, and then threw it to the nearest trash can.

When he was about to turn around and enter the elevator, Shen Changwen said: "Isn't your heart very messy?" ”

"Of course it's messy," Wu Xiaoqing laughed at himself, "but who can blame him?" We brought it all upon ourselves. ”

On Earth, Wu Xiaoqing has always felt like an orphan. Although he has a mother, they have never really disciplined themselves, and from the beginning of being sensible, Wu Xiaoqing feels that he is an orphan.

There is nothing good about being an orphan, no one cares, but there is also a little benefit, that is, there is no concern in this world, no matter what you do, you don't need to scruple or be afraid. This kind of carelessness was not an advantage for Wu Xiaoqing in the past, at best, it made him more unscrupulous when he did stupid things, but for him now, it is useful - Wu Xiaoqing has never really regarded himself as an earthling, or a member of the earth's civilization, so in the process of performing the mission, he can completely put the interests of the search and rescue team first.

But now, he is not an orphan.

In a way, he has a brother, and he is not a ...... It's tens of billions of ......

These brothers did not come into being out of thin air, but because of themselves...... If you look at it from the perspective of cause and effect alone, you can also count yourself as theirs...... Father......

suddenly became the father of tens of billions of people, this is probably how Wu Xiaoqing feels now.

Obviously, this kind of melancholy is not completely alleviated by smoking a few cigarettes.

"Don't think about it, the mission is over anyway," Shen Changwen comforted, "After that, this mess has nothing to do with us." ”

Wu Xiaoqing's eyes widened: "What's the matter?" ”

Shen Changwen suddenly realized that he had slipped his mouth: "No...... It's just some trivial things to clean up the aftermath. ”

"Trivia?"

The trivial things that Shen Changwen said were just for this mission. But for those Wu Xiaoqing, it is obviously not small.

The search and rescue team did not disclose the specific content to Shen Changwen, but only told them that the search and rescue boat would be borrowed for a period of time, and during this time, their search and rescue mission would be temporarily suspended or carried out in other ways.

Although neither the search and rescue team nor Shen Changwen said anything, Wu Xiaoqing could more or less guess some.

It must have something to do with the clones.

……

It's been more than ten days since I went home, and to be honest, Wang Youquan is still a little uncomfortable.

When lunch was approaching, he habitually went to the kitchen, only to see that his wife was already cooking there.

"What do you think you are absent-minded at home all day? Do you want to play cards again? ”

"......No," Wang Youquan said as he walked back to the living room, "It's just that I got used to cooking some time ago......"

The mobile phone rang, Wang Youquan picked it up, it was Yevgeny and Xu Yan: "Come down to help move things, come to eat." ”

After going downstairs, Wang Youquan saw Xu Yan taking something out of the trunk of the car: "What did you buy here?" ”

"Computer...... Didn't you say two days ago, I'm going to study at your home. ”

"Isn't it okay to put the company dormitory?" Wang Youquan helped take the screen, Yevgeny took some light sundries, and the three of them walked into the elevator.

"The company dormitory is not good...... Wu Xiaoqing and Shen Changwen are there...... It always feels weird. ”

"What's weird...... Unless you're going to watch......"

"You're a man...... It's not about believing you to let you go. ”

"I don't stay overnight here, it's a small place."

"Rare...... More than a place to stay at night. After coming back this time, Xu Yan has already found a girlfriend, and the relationship has improved in the past few days, so he will live directly at his girlfriend's house.

The computer was eventually moved into the utility room of Shen Changwen's house, which is also where his son usually writes his homework. When he moved in, Wang Youquan also explained that the computer could not be used by his son, for fear that he would delay his studies by playing with the computer.

"I bought a computer to study, how can I install games."

Wang Youquan's wife sat today to make lo mein, and the toppings of the beef were boiled for a morning, and the stew was rotten. When the noodles were served, the faces of the three people were full of red light, and Yevgeny rubbed his hands, pointed and said: "It's better than what you do, fragrant." ”

"Of course." When Wang Youquan married his wife, he saw that she cooked deliciously.

After eating noodles and setting up the computers, Yevgeny gave them a basic lesson in the afternoon.

It's a lesson, but it's actually a general introduction to some of the details of this mission - the mission seems to have been completed, but the two of them are still in the clouds, and they don't even know what they did in this mission, which is the key.

In the past, when they drove excavators, even if they didn't know what the purpose of the work was, they still knew the basics of digging trenches...... But this trip, to be honest, both of them were similar to going out on a trip.

During the whole mission, Wang Youquan cooked for Yevgeny every day, and Xu Yan followed him into the virtual world...... And then there was nothing.

Mission accomplished, go home to get money, vacation......

It sounds good, but the hearts of the two of them are getting more and more up and down.

In the eyes of the hard-working and simple Chinese, this is not a good thing, because everyone believes in a sentence that there is no white pie in the sky.

Although Wang Youquan and Xu Yan have little to do with diligence and simplicity, this uneasiness is still common.

After the completion of this mission, looking at the faces of Wu Xiaoqing and Shen Changwen, it was obvious that they were not very satisfied with the details of this mission...... They were all afraid that this dissatisfaction would eventually be transferred to the two of them, and eventually they would be fired. So now, although they are going home for vacation, the two of them have begun to strengthen the study of cultural knowledge.

But is this culture easy to learn? Especially with an old man who doesn't understand Chinese half-understood......

“…… So you say, will my clones ever come back...... Or just help the search and rescue team? Xu Yan has always been concerned about this, "There are also those clones of Wu Xiaoqing...... Since it's the same as Wu Xiaoqing, wouldn't the search and rescue team even want Wu Xiaoqing? ”

"I don't think it's that simple," Evgeny explains, "and the value of a person lies not only in memory, but also in social relations...... At least for now, search and rescue teams are inseparable from the vast advisory teams on the planet. ”

"But there are more clones than the entire planet combined." Tens of billions, that kind of number...... It feels like a fantasy. Wang Youquan and Xu Yan now feel the same as seeing Sun Wukong when they see Wu Xiaoqing, as if they can pluck the hair on his body and blow it, hundreds of clones can come out.

"No matter how many people there are, they are all Wu Xiaoqing, and the degree of open-mindedness cannot be compared with the completely different 6 billion people." This explanation was given by the search and rescue team, and to be honest, Yevgeny himself was a little skeptical of this conclusion, but since he said it, Yevgeny only believed it.

"Ten thousand steps back, even if they're really useful...... We still have irreplaceable value, at least through which we can mobilize some of the planet's resources. ”

After the mission, Yevgeny also talked to Shen Changwen a few times, all about their future.

Shen Changwen has a judgment, Yevgeny still agrees, he thinks that the intellectual resources on the earth are ...... To be honest, there is no further potential for further exploration, and now that the scope of the consultation has been expanded to the limit of confidentiality, if it continues, there will be people who will doubt the nature of their company and care about the specific content and purpose of these consulting topics.

But there is still considerable room for the exploitation of material resources.

Of course, the material here does not mean that the production capacity of the earth is still needed, if the previous tasks still need to use the earth's productivity to help produce some emergency supplies, in this mission, the earth has not been able to help at all......

Even if they want to help, they don't have the ability, imagine if they didn't drive the search and rescue ship sent by Civilization A, but appeared in the galaxy of the Federation people on a rocket on Earth...... Not to mention saving Changbai Changxing and starting this mission, I'm afraid they will be caught in the zoo and watched as alien giant monkeys.

After seeing the extent to which the Federation civilization could exploit planets, both Yevgeny and Shen Changwen began to look at the many planets around Earth.

Not to mention the galaxies near the Earth, even in the solar system, the Earth only occupies the surface of a planet...... Just like the monkeys in the primeval forest, the only thing they can control is the forest where they move, the vast world outside...... It's all unmanned.

If the mission requires it, and if the search and rescue team wants to, they are fully confident that the search and rescue team can rely on a search and rescue ship to develop and modify the surrounding planets to a similar degree as the Federation planets. The civilization of the search and rescue team is obviously higher than that of the Federation civilization - this can be known from the fact that the search and rescue ship has the ability to shuttle through space that the Federation does not have.

So Xu Yan and Wang Youquan are worried about the work problem...... Yevgeny did not have the slightest doubt.

Both he and Shen Changwen were worried about another possibility—whether the earth civilization itself would undergo some kind of change because of the existence of the search and rescue team.

Despite the search and rescue team's constant emphasis on secrecy, they have barely had any impact after being on Earth for so long and on so many missions. It turns out that they thought they could continue like this forever...... But after this mission, they began to realize that the "accident" of the exchange between civilizations really cannot be measured by common sense.

Just like they were in the Federation, when they first approached in the past, who would have thought that just because of Wu Xiaoqing and the three of them, they could have such a far-reaching impact on a civilization. Although they thought in advance that it would be best to save these two civilizations without having any impact on them.
