chapter 118 them
Ning Fei's departure from the Quantum Mansion does not mean that he has left the Quantum Company. Realistically speaking, Quantum Company has come to this day, although it is the original capital provided by Xinyue, but in the process of development, the scientific and technological support provided by Ning Fei has played an irreplaceable role.
Ning Fei was reluctant to open up the Warframe technology to the Alliance Army, but left the complete Warframe platform and the related weapons arsenal in the Quantum Building, if he insisted on destroying all the Warframes and historical data, then the Quantum Company, which had lost the combat capability of the machine, would probably have its comprehensive combat power reduced by more than half.
But Ning Fei didn't do that, he didn't have a family, and Quantum Company was his new home.
He left here, just tired of the disgusting tricks of the Alliance, and he didn't want to embarrass the others, because Crescent Moon and his opinions were different, and his continued stay in the Quantum Corporation would only cause factional divisions from within.
He really didn't want to see this, although these things were very important to the entire alliance, but for a person who had little time left in his life, any wealth and fame, honor and status, did not matter.
Ning Fei went to the base hospital alone, he was very familiar with this place, and there was no one in the brain surgery department at night.
"Knock Knock"
Hearing a knock on the door, Dr. Wiener immediately put down the book in his hand and saw who was coming.
"Dr. Wiener, I've thought about it, undergo surgery, I need your help."
Dr. Wiener's bare head was a little puzzled, "Although it was a wise decision, it seems that something has happened to make you change. ”
"Is there a difference?"
"You seem to have lost something important," Dr. Wiener said, giving some hint to Ning Fei's face.
Ning Fei couldn't help but be surprised, nodded and said, "I lost my armor." ”
Dr. Wiener smiled, "I'm not talking about your big toys, but it's not the most urgent thing right now, and now that you've made your decision, I'll schedule your surgery." ”
"Thanks, just don't let me stay in the hospital bed for too long."
"Don't worry, new technologies are always working to reduce human suffering."
......
Time passed quickly, and Parliament was working the Limitation Bill, and on the other hand, through the official media, with a focus on it, to inform the public about the progress made by the Alliance in the cause of global security and peace.
The harder the coalition government's mouthpiece goes, the more it will divert the public's attention from the problems exposed by the unipolar world of capital exploitation and rising social injustice.
cause
The public is ignorant, at least when individuals form groups, and this ignorance is particularly common.
Once the Council regulates Quantum Corporation, they will come to believe that the superheroes' contributions to the world are ultimately due to the Alliance.
But in stark contrast to the excitement of the Alliance, the members of the Quantum Corporation were particularly listless after learning the reason for Ning Fei's departure.
Ever since she left her role as an agent, Caitlyn has learned to show her true emotions on her face, but has recently returned to a state of indecibility.
Blade asked himself why he had worked with his long-time partner, and in Catelyn's words, "When I learned that I was going back to work at my mean old club, I was in such a bad mood that I had to turn into a poker face." ”
Bloom Eddie was a chatterbox, and few people could last more than fifteen minutes except for the battered Ning Fei, but now he was about to be reduced to talking to a guinea pig.
And Gibbon can't stand Eddie's conversation with the guinea pig, but he can keep nagging, most of the time he will fly out on a plane, sometimes calling Caitlyn, in the name of checking out the potentially dangerous events happening in various places, but in fact, before the restriction bill takes effect, cathartic to enjoy the rare freedom at this time.
Dr. Crescent Moon spends more and more time in the lab, but less and less energy is spent on research projects on next-generation microrobots, and she spends a lot of time alone and silent thinking every day.
However, this gesture is a typical daze in Elizabeth's view.
Elizabeth is the most normal one in the whole team, Xinyue is not keen on managing the company, and the situation at this time can be regarded as passive sabotage, the old housekeeper Cooper is old after all, so more and more management affairs of the quantum company basically fall on the energetic Elizabeth.
Elizabeth has experience in these areas, and although Sino has collapsed, she is still the top manager.
"Toot ~"
The screen on the wall suddenly lit up, it was Colonel Barton's video call, and Crescent Moon came back from her daze and connected the phone.
"Hey, Barton."
"Doctor, are you all there?"
"Gibbon and Caitlin just went out."
"There's an emergency, look at this."
Patton sent a copy of the information, and the Intelligence Agency obtained a report from NASA from the Space Warning Network, the legacy of the Hellfire Legion's Space Warning System, which lost its space carrier and monitored entry into the atmosphere 24 hours a day
The event described in this report is the detection of an unidentified object from outer space entering the Gulf of Alaska.
"The image is not very clear, and judging by the calculated volume, could it be a small meteorite," Crescent speculated.
"I'm not sure if it's a threat, but the coalition means that it's better for someone to go and see it," Barton said helplessly, the report sent by NASA, the Alliance Intelligence Agency is not the only recipient, and the Council of Parliament also has access to these top-secret documents.
Crescent's tone couldn't help but be a little dissatisfied, "The restriction bill hasn't started to take effect yet, are they so impatient to start calling us?" ”
"Theoretically, they don't have this power, you can refuse, I'm just sending out inquiries for them according to the process", Patton was also a little helpless, although the council could not directly intervene in the internal affairs of the intelligence bureau from the functional point of view, but it could unite the military high-level in the council and indirectly affect the intelligence bureau he led, so if it didn't touch the bottom line, Barton didn't want to confront them casually.
"Forget it, it's just an errand, I'll contact Yoshimoto and ask them to take a look by the way, maybe the meteorite has fallen into the sea, and this does not conflict with our duties", although the new moon was unhappy, but it was clear that he didn't want to offend the parliament at this time, otherwise it would only make them more harsh on the terms of the restriction bill, and even use such trivial things to make a big fuss in front of the public, and splash dirty water on Quantum Corporation.
After Barton hung up the video call, Dr. Crescent sent the task to Caitlyn and Gibbon to work on.
Crescent Moon rubbed her temples, and the sorrow between her brows intensified.
"What are you bothering you, doctor?"
Elizabeth walked to the crescent moon, in a sense, the two of them can be regarded as sympathetic people, women, independence, intelligence, and the self-confidence temperament shaped by their careers, in addition to the differences in their fields and personalities, they really have a lot in common.
"What kind of person do you think I am?"
Crescent Moon didn't answer Elizabeth's question directly, but suddenly came up with such a sentence, which made Elizabeth who didn't know how to respond, just looked at Crescent Moon quietly, waiting for her to continue.
"I've tried, but I'm not doing well, I'll always be like a calculating egoist, weighing every gain and loss, I'm not as good as them. I'm not really a superhero. ”
They, Elizabeth didn't know who they were, but at least one of them should be the guy who was still an hour away from death, and he could barely put on his armor, and he still wanted to stay and do something for the world.
