Chapter 56: Huang Jie's Predicament

Where did Luna and Alice go?

Huang Jie is convinced that they are still alive, and Alice, who is seriously injured and waiting to recover, sneaks out of the surgical capsule, she steals Lucius's latest invention of Zeus's blade and Thor's hammer power armor, goes to Luna alone, and leaves a phantom projector in the capsule compartment of the miniature operating room, hiding from all the doctors and even everyone for at least a day, thinking that she is still healing.

Huang Jie also learned the news from Mr. Augustus's mouth the day later, he came to the hospital, surveyed the surroundings, and then she received information that Luna wanted to synchronize VR to 100%, Huang Jie heard it, and hurriedly took Adeline and located the chip on the Thor armor that Alice took to the scene, but at this moment they only found the unconscious Bertha, Tina, Jack with the broken arm on the other side, and Martin's body.

Huang Jie asked Jack where Luna and Alice had gone, he shook his head, and just said Samuel's affairs and fainted, but Huang Jie had no choice but to order Adeline to take the three teammates who had passed out to go back to heal first.

Although the Red Crisis was successfully stopped, and their team was selected for the official test of the Scavenger Games, but the test required a team of four, but fortunately, Alice and Luna are gone, leaving Bertha, Tina, and Jack in the intensive care unit unawakened.

How can this be good, the progress of the game of Operation Scavenger is close at hand, and Huang Jie's head hurts a little, although at this moment he wants to know what happened to Luna and Alice that night.

Huang Jie asked Augustus what to do, but Augustus handed him a business card named Xie Qi,

For Huang Jie, this name is not unfamiliar, because Xie Qi has been his friend since he was a child in Whartont, but because of his father's affairs, after Huang Jie followed his mother to Osroni, they have not had much contact until now, and it is only today that he knows that Xie Qi has now become the upper echelon of Osroni's army.

Although there was not much contact, Huang Jie still believed that Xie Qi would help him.

Huang Jie swiped the screen and sent Xie Qi an email according to the email address on the business card, asking him to meet him at the ship café next to Ronnie Bay tomorrow afternoon.

"Will you help me?" Huang Jie said.

They were on the plywood of the steamship café, and the seats on the side were empty, only the traces of peeling paint on them told the hustle and bustle of the past. There were three people standing on the side, Huang Jie didn't know any of them, maybe they were Xie Qi's friends. Every now and then, they would glance over the side and then turn back to whisper conversation.

"I don't know." Xie Qi replied.

"I don't know what it means?"

Xie Qi didn't answer, just looked at Huang Jie quietly.

"Don't make a fuss, you're better than me when it comes to hacking, better than everyone else." Huang Jie glanced at the two people standing on the other side, and whispered, "Even if others don't know, I know, this is the secret of the two of us, isn't it?" ”

Xie Qi glanced at his friend next to him, and did not show the slightest smile because of this. Since Huang Jie told him about the things and plans he wanted to entrust a few minutes ago, he had a serious face. Xie Qi and Huang Jie in front of them were like two people in their impressions.

Huang Jie's memory of Xie Qi has been stuck in the first time they met, after Huang Jie's family changed, his mother took him to live with his maternal grandparents. The unfamiliar living environment, the unfamiliar teachers and classmates, and even the people who bullied him were so unfamiliar.

"I want to think about it." Javier looked at his watch and said lightly, "Time is running out, it's time for me to go." With that, he turned and left.

"Do you really?" Huang Jie asked.

Xie Qi looked back at him, "What will it be?" ”

"You're going to help me, aren't you?"

"I said I would think about it." Xie Qi said, and walked to the side.

In this way, Huang Jie watched Xie Qi return to his small team, and he didn't know if those people were Xie Qi's friends. But when Xie Qi approached the group, they pointed at Huang Jie with their chin questioningly, Xie Qi shrugged his shoulders, and then shook his head slightly.

Huang Jie didn't know what Xie Qi was thinking now, and he didn't know why he was the way he was. In just a few years, Huang Jie sighed and turned to leave.

Huang Jie left the café and walked home. He decided that no matter whether Xie Qi would help him or not, he would hack into the scavengers' official uniform system according to his plan. He didn't have a choice, he had to.

He must know where Luna and Alice are now.

Huang Jie opened the door, and Augustus was sitting in a recliner in the antechamber watching the TV program on the projection screen. There is a quiz program with prizes on it, and this form of program has been passed down for a long time. When he walked into the house, Beanie on the ground stood up from Augustus' side. Doudou barked twice, wagged his tail and came to Huang Jie's side to look at him.

Huang Jie bent down and gently stroked Doudou's neck and head, "I'm back." ”

"It's back," Augustus said, turning off the volume on the TV, and the cheers on the show would disturb their conversation, "look at you, and you're gone?" ”

"Not exactly." Huang Jie replied.

"How's that?"

"You can't say it's bloody." Huang Jie stopped stroking Doudou, came to the table next to him, poured a cup of herbal tea and said, "We didn't drink coffee, so we just leaned next to us and chatted." ”

"Don't think so much," Augustus said calmly, standing up, "at least there are days before the game starts, and we have a chance." ”

Huang Jie has heard this many times in the past few days. In Huang Jie's opinion, this is just another way to comfort him, Huang Jie supported his head, leaned back against the chair, and looked at the ceiling, "I still have to think of a way." Huang Jie whispered, "Where did Lucius go?" ”

"He's in an underground lab." Augustus replied, "There should be new development, and you may need to help." ”

Huang Jie didn't think so, but his face was silent. He knew Lucius better than Augustus, and he was enthusiastic about people, but he was an independent person for research and development, and he couldn't possibly need him to help him get his great invention out of it. But as far as Augustus is concerned, he thinks Lucius should have something to talk to him about, maybe some terrible thing, Alice and Luna's bodies have been found? This made him a little scared, because what Lucius said to him these days was not a good thing, but there was no escape, Augustus was also a smart man, he would not let Lucius help useless for no reason, forget it, accept it calmly. Huang Jie nodded and said, "I'll go and have a look." ”

Huang Jie walked through the living room and walked outside. I don't know if it's because the carpet doesn't get dirty easily, or because Lucius doesn't want to spend more money on home decoration and takes care of it, the carpet under his feet has not been replaced for many years, which is not like a duke's style. On the walls covered in beige wallpaper are delicate paintings by Lucius.

As he passed the kitchen, he took an orange from the fruit bowl on the counter covered with plastic veneer, then gently opened the hidden wooden door on the kitchen floor, walked down first, slowly lowered the wooden door with his hand, and gently closed it above his head.

There was still some distance between the basement and the laboratory, and at the end of the stairs was a garden, small but so carefully groomed by the gardener that it looked unreal. A lawn in the shape of an amoeba is enclosed by a flowerbed and shrubs, and a few orange and avocado trees grow against the fence.

Huang Jie walked along the brick-paved path to the laboratory in front of him, the room in Huang Jie's memory, a sewer electronic control room, has been used by Lucius as an experimental treasure, but the interior of the room looks similar to the electronic control room. Huang Jie pushed open the door and walked in, Lucius was standing bent over, constantly adjusting the small lamp on the experimental instrument to look at the new thing in his hand. He was wearing a white lab coat, but now he was a black coat.

"Ahem, ......", Huang Jie pretended to cough, he successfully attracted Lucius's attention, "When did Yaxing come to the laboratory?" ”

"I'll come and see," Huang Jie asked, and he looked at the biscuit-like substance in Lucius' hand and asked, "What's that?" What cookie rewards do you get from signing up with a new company? ”

"Nope." Lucius replied with a smile, "It's so much better than a cookie, at least he doesn't want it to be so crumbling." ”

"That's a compressed biscuit, huh?"

"No, no, it's not for food." Lucius explained, "This is a new substance I got from a friend. He paused, then said, "Do you remember the blade of Zeus?" ”

"Remember, it's the one the fox took it."

"Yes......" Lucius said, covering his head, "this thing is called Star Rock, and it's a special synthetic metal substance. ”

"Tell me about its features."

"It's hard, it's 200 times harder than carbon fiber, plus it's heat-resistant." Lucius slid the projection screen out and explained, "It's very heat-resistant, and if you put it in the middle of the heat of a simulated miniature nuclear explosion laboratory, all the metal is intact, and the temperature hasn't risen at all, and it's not contaminated with any nuclear contamination, and it's ......," he explained, "It's the same thing as sound-absorbing steel, it emits a certain frequency of vibration waves to absorb the energy source." ”

"Oh, so amazing?" Huang Jie said, "Then what do you say this thing is indestructible, resistant to high temperatures, and can absorb energy sources?" He paused and said, "It's all heat-resistant, how do you make it a material?" ”

Lucius touched his mustache and said, "Yes...... By the way......" he said, "Do you have any news about the Zeus Blade you just mentioned?" ”

"No ......," Huang Jie shrugged, and then said, "They disappeared without a trace like cannon fodder." ”

"Alas......" Lucius sighed.

"What are you looking for from me?" Huang Jie then asked, "You told me to come down." ”

"Yes!" Lucius turned around and rummaged through the drawers and said to Huang Jie, "I got what you wanted." He took out a chip-like thing from the drawer, turned around and handed it to Huang Jie, "Here you go." ”

"What's this?"

"Micro radio base stations." Lucius explained, "Aren't you looking for Luna? You can use it to try hacking into the network of people around you. ”

"What do you mean?"

"You can blend in with the people around you and see if you can find Luna." Lucius explained, "You can find big clues from small clues. ”

"I'll try it first, by the way," Huang Jie looked around and asked, "What happened to Bertha and the other two?" ”

"You said they." Lucius swiped the projection screen towards Huang Jie on the side, on the screen, Bertha was holding on to the railing and walking slowly with the help of the doctor, and from time to time there would be falls, Lucius put down the work in his hand and walked over, and said to Huang Jie, "She was stabbed in the spine, but fortunately, the blade only hurt her nerves a little, but it made it difficult for her to walk." He looked at Huang Jie, who had some sadness in his eyes, and continued to murmur, "You can rest assured that she is recovering quickly, her wounds have basically healed, I believe she will return to normal soon, you don't have to worry." ”

"What about the other two." Huang Jie asked.

"I was about to tell you something." Lucius turned to face the door of the lab and said, "You can come out." ”

As soon as the words fell, a person walked out of the air: a standard classical melon seed face, just like a person who walked down from the most standard beauty comics; Compared with the big eyes of ordinary beauties, her eyes are big and bright, and there seem to be rippling water in her eyes, as if she is silently pouring out something all the time; The resolute and straight nose bridge has both the beauty of a woman and the heroism of a man; The slightly thin and soft cherry lips show an almost transparent ruby red, which is delicate at any time as if it can make people intoxicated at a glance; A long black purple hair as soft as water slanted down like a waterfall, and it was just right to spread on the slightly shaved fragrant shoulders.

After seeing Huang Jie, her big purple eyes were a little stunned at first, but after a while, she greeted him with a smile again, "Hi?" ”

Huang Jie was a little moved by her appearance, he was stunned for a moment, and then pretended to be calm and said, "This is?" ”

"I should have talked about her in the first few chapters?" Lucius frowned and looked at Huang Jie suspiciously.

"Huh?"

"Well......," Lucius sighed, then said, "I'm going to introduce you." He pointed to the girl and said, "Her name is Blue ......."

"No, my name is Tina......" the girl next to her vetoed.

"Tina?" Huang Jie said, "She wasn't ......"

"She's also one of the new humans," Lucius said, "and most of the tuners have powerful healing genes in their blood, like Luna, Alice, and your Bertha you've seen, they're all tuners, but it stands to reason. He paused, then said, "They are all genetically the same, but they are different in appearance and ability, but her companion, the mechanical boy, is different." ”

"What's wrong with him?"

"He is a reformer, he is seriously injured, and he is still in the custody room."

"Let's not talk about this for now...... Huang Jie looked at Tina and said, "What did you call her for?" ”

"That's exactly what I'm going to say." Lucius slid the data sheet in the air to show him, "Tina's ability is survival of the fittest, she can adapt to all circumstances, just like she was able to hide in the dark just now. ”

"Oh......" Huang Jie looked to the side, he was surprised to find that Tina was gone, "What about her?" Huang Jie looked around and asked, and after he said this, Tina suddenly appeared a few meters in front of Huang Jie, "What are you calling me for?" Huang Jie's surprised and shy expression was reflected in his amethyst-like eyes.

Tina stopped and said to Huang Jie with a smile, "Don't be shy, I won't kiss you." ”

"You purple ......" Huang Jie was even more surprised, this thing can read minds.

"My name is Tina!" Tina said.

"By the way, I forgot to tell you." Lucius hurriedly explained, "Tina also has the ability to sense the other party's brain waves, to put it simply, she knows what you think, but to put it more complicated......" At this moment, Tina suddenly became smart, turned around and pressed the pistol on Lucius's waist, she frowned and said, "Man, I'm not like you to point a gun at me." ”

“…… She can sense the next movement of someone through her brain waves. Lucius explained.

"Then why was she hit in the body?"

"I was about to say this too, she ......" Before Lucius could finish, Tina interjected, "I was there to provoke Luna and use my death to make her defeat Martin." ”

"That's right, she said what I wanted to say." Lucius said.

"Okay......" Before Huang Jie could finish speaking, the projection screen in front of him popped up, and it was Xie Qi's email, "Lucius, I'll answer the phone first." ”

"Okay." Lucius nodded, and Huang Jie left the lab and walked out.

"What's wrong?" Huang Jie answered the phone.

"I've thought about what you said." Xie Qi on the other end of the phone said, "Don't be anxious about the excitement, I want to ask you something for you to consider." ”

"What's the matter?"

"I can help you simulate that system, but ......," Xie Qi said with a frown, "at that time, we were going to extract your DNA and even use your brain, would you be willing?" ”

Huang Jie choked up, he thought, gnawed on his fingernails, and didn't reply for a moment.

"You've got ...... with me"

"Wait!" Huang Jie replied firmly, "I do." ”

Xie Qi paused for a long time, sighed and said, "I'll give you the address, you can come over at night." After saying that, a window popped up on the screen to the right of Huang Jie, showing an address: New Thames.

Huang Jie hung up the communication, he returned to the laboratory, pointed at Tina to the busy Lucius and said, "I can take this purple rabbit ......"

Tina frowned, pointed at Huang Jie and said impatiently, "Again, my name is Tina." ”

"Okay." Lucius stared at the drawing in his hand and said, "Until Snow Rabbit replies, she will be your CP for the time being." ”

Huang Jie nodded, looked at Tina, who was tilting his head to look at him, and before he could speak, Tina said, "Let's go, partner." ”

She read my thoughts again, Huang Jie sighed in thought, and then led Tina to open the lab door and walk towards the room above.
