On the morning of March 23, 2028, a black red flag drove into a residential area.

Xiang Shan was dressed in tourist clothes, carrying a backpack and waving to his parents who were sent out the door. Xiang Shan's mother was teary-eyed, touched the corners of her eyes, and waved at him.

When the door opened, a young man in a suit stepped out. He smiled politely at Xiang Shan: "Xiang Shan Xiang Researcher? Can I take a look at your documents? ”

Xiang Shan showed his ID. The cadre used his mobile phone of unknown brand to check it, and after confirming that it was correct, he turned around and took out an envelope: "This is the document you need, as well as your new mobile phone." ”

Xiang Shan flipped the envelope, heavy, there was an obvious touch of the mobile phone, but the other part was not thick. After sitting in the back seat according to the cadre's gestures, he opened the envelope, took out his mobile phone, and found that there was no brand, and the shape was very similar to some flagship phones on the market.

"The phone is purpose-built and the system is written in-house." The cadre started the car and said: "It locks some authorizations very tightly, and many apps in China may not be able to use them normally." I hope you can overcome this. Also, please don't upgrade this phone yourself without authorization......"

Xiang Shan was embarrassed: "This can't be. I'm not stupid. ”

"I know that too." The cadre smiled: "It's just that I also know that you computer scholars are used to tinkering with your own electronic products." I've had accidents before, so I still have to make this clear. ”

Xiang Shan nodded hurriedly.

The phone seems to have entered a fingerprint lock. Xiang Shan naturally activated the mobile phone.

"By the way, the phone card inside is also specially made, and the number is your original number." The cadre then said: "You don't have to pay the phone bill in the future." However, your call logs will also be subject to some scrutiny. I hope you understand this - you shouldn't have a partner yet, right? ”

Xiang Shan shook his head. He was a little surprised by the fact that "the mobile phone number is still the same", but he was not too surprised. As for surveillance and the like, I was prepared when I decided to take on this classified project.

Xiang Shan put his phone in his pocket and poured out the rest of the envelope.

"Huh?"

Then he exclaimed.

Among those few documents, the top one is actually a passport.

It's the familiar little dark red book.

There is also a copy of Xiangshan. Lao Liu has taken him out of the country several times. But because he was involved in a secret project this time, he didn't take the little book with him. In his mind, he probably won't need that thing for years to come.

According to his understanding, he will most likely stay in some heavily guarded place in China, and at worst, go to the western desert.

"How do you ...... Forget it, nothing. ”

This question doesn't make much sense. The passport itself is issued by the state, so it is not surprising that the state will temporarily issue him another one if he needs it.

But here's the problem...... Why are classified projects held overseas?

He's a scholar and not an agent, huh?

Xiang Shan hurriedly picked up his passport, wanting to see the contents inside.

But the document on the ground made him even more strange.

The blue leather cover of the document was stamped with the United Nations badge.

"Joint ...... UNOPS certificate? Xiang Shan was shocked and looked at the cadres driving in front of him.

The cadre glanced at Xiangshan from the rearview mirror and said with a smile: "Don't ask me if you have any doubts." All I can tell you is that I don't know anything. ”

Xiang Shan will not believe this. He put his passport aside and picked up the United Nations document.

The identity information and photos in it are all his. And the position is ......

"Special Counsel?"

Xiang Shan was even more puzzled.

Why does a foreign-related project have such a high level of secrecy?

Then again, why should foreign-related projects recruit academics who are engaged in hardware?

Xiangshan is completely unknown.

And after opening the passport, he was even more confused.

This passport has already been issued with a visa. His original passport only had visas for the United States and Japan. And on this one, visas for the United States, Russia, the United Kingdom, France, Japan and other countries are readily available. Since France is a Schengen country, he can also travel to more than twenty European countries with this passport.

But here's the problem......

He is involved in a secret project, even if it is in cooperation with another country...... At best, it is to give him a visa to the country in which he cooperates. Why give him so many visas at once?

And even more strangely, why did those countries give so quickly? You know, he could have been pulled into this project only yesterday. It is not possible for the state to prepare this passport in advance. This was clearly done within one day.

A big question mark appeared on Mukaiyama's head.

"Why ......"

"All I can tell you is that I don't know anything."

Soon, Hongqi turned around and entered an alley, and then drove into a compound.

In the courtyard, the cadres opened the car door for Xiang Shan.

Xiang Shan was still a little stunned, and his head didn't turn for a while: "This is ...... Got to the place? ”

"Ah, no, we're changing cars here." The cadre shook his head.

A few people came out of the room inside. One of them is Xiangshan's mentor Liu Zhenghui.

"Teacher?" Hurried greetings to the mountain.

Lao Liu was slightly chubby, and his head was topped early. He nodded to Xiang Shan: "Xiang Shan, how do you feel?" It was the first time I participated in this kind of program, did you have any ideas? ”

Xiang Shan said: "Quite nervous...... And then there's ...... I think it's a little weird. ”

"Strange?" Lao Liu seemed to think of something: "You also got a certificate from the United Nations?" ”

Xiang Shan nodded: "We must be a group?" ”

Lao Liu was a little worried. He is a researcher in hardware structure design, and he also has a lot of experience in reverse technology, and has participated in two classified projects.

But he really didn't know why he received a United Nations certificate after accepting a national call-up.

Another staff member beckoned everyone to change into another car. Lao Liu is relatively fat and sits in the passenger seat. Xiang Shan got into a car with another tall and thin woman in her thirties.

On the way, several scholars whispered conversations.

Lao Liu is a relatively heavy scholar in China, and he has several laboratories under his name. In addition to the hardware structure design, he also has two interdisciplinary projects. One of them is the hardware part of the additive construction instrument, which is located in the Basic Industry Training Center in cooperation with the Department of Materials Science. This laboratory is usually managed by the "big brother", but the important projects are called to Xiangshan. In addition, he has a crossover project with neuroscience. Xiang Shan occasionally makes some experimental supplies for that side, but there is not much contact other than that.

Because of the same circle, there are so many famous scholars. Therefore, when Lao Liu saw that there were people he didn't know among the fellow scholars, he instinctively decided that the people who would work with him this time would be people in the field of materials science or neuroscience. After all, he does have projects that intersect with these disciplines.

But after asking, he realized that things were a little different from what he had imagined.

The tall and thin man with gold wire glasses is called Li Jiahua, who is engaged in behavioral research at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. His research focuses on the evolutionary psychology of primates, and he usually deals with monkeys. According to his own account, he was called while fiddling with the monkeys.

And the woman's name is Zhang Qiaoyun, who is from the Institute of Ethnic Linguistics of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, and she was only studying a dead language called "White Wolf Language" before. She had no idea why the state would need to participate in such a project on its own.

But after some conversation, they found that they all got the same documents.

"Wow!" Xiang Shan muttered, "It's not good...... Big bad ......"

Electronic information technology, behavior, and linguistics are all unrelated.

If ancient human remains are found, it is possible that behavioral and linguistic scholars will be in the same area.

But in the end, I didn't call the computer hardware one by one.

There is no reason to set such a high level of secrecy.

These connections only made him think of ......

………………………………………………………………………………

"Damn, alien?" Xiang Shan ...... To be precise, I felt that I had withdrawn from the link to memory "with a confused face".

It's daytime and the sun has just risen. Instead of moving on, Xiang Mountain parked the "donkey" on the east side of a raised boulder, next to the rock, so that the car's shadow could be cast on the rock as much as possible.

Running during the day is too risky and can easily be noticed by optical surveillance. And in the morning and evening, it is even more dangerous. When the angle of sunlight is small, the shadow of the "donkey" will be very long and very conspicuous.

So during the day, Xiang Shan usually finds a place to recharge.

Now is the time to rest.

Although Yuki had been on the road all night and was sleepy, he was still called to the mountain and held a rifle to guard the surroundings.

And Xiang Shan continued to absorb and sort out the memories of the past.

What he read just now should be the oldest memory in this hard drive.

No, the files don't indicate the time, but during the preview, he did have such a hazy feeling.

Then he began to read one of the memories.

And then ......

Xiang Shan felt that things were weird.

"The remnants of an ultra-ancient civilization? Or aliens? Xiang Shan pressed his head: "Why do you feel that the painting style of this world is wrong?" It's a post-apocalyptic wasteland, isn't it? Maybe there are cyberpunk elements...... Oh yes, and there are martial arts elements. But no matter how you think about it, you can't jump out of an alien, right? ”

A strange story inexplicably appeared in Xiang Shan's mind.

An alien spaceship crashes to the ground, and then, a young man who has practiced martial arts to the extreme, and there is no room for progress in front of him, enters it, grabs resources to strengthen himself, and then changes the painting style of the whole world......

"No, no, no, no, no......" Xiang Shan shook his head: "Did I love reading novels before?" Such a story...... It must be something from a novel! ”
