Chapter 37: Sleepwalking

When Kai Ming walked away along the passage, the uncle deliberately raised his voice and said, "Come out." ”

Jiang Yan came out of the dark corner, took her uncle's hand and said, "Dad." ”

The uncle looked at Kai Mingyuan's back and asked his daughter, "He is the man you fancie?"

Jiang Yan nodded shyly, "Dad, what do you think of him?"

The uncle said: "Although this kid is a bit deviant, he is indeed a talent. ”

"Then you agreed?"

"Don't be glad yet, you haven't asked for the boy's permission, and he's got a wedding ring on his hand. ”

"Dad, what are you talking about?" Jiang Yan's face turned red, "I just want him to join the group." ”

"Ha, your little bit of caution, Dad already guessed it. ”

Jiang Yan was panicked by him, and found an excuse to slip away and keep up with Kaiming's pace.

The two walked around the workshop, and Jiang Yan found that Kaiming was not interested in them, so she took him to visit the group's secret research institute.

It's rare that paper-making companies also have secret research institutes.

Kaiming followed her to the east side of the workshop, where there was indeed a large domed building, and the first thing to enter was to pass through strict security, which contained industrial robotic arms full of cables, half-body robots that could talk, and most amazingly, a taller than human iron armor.

The iron armor is a humanoid structure, not yet painted, the whole body is primitive metallic silver-gray, the limbs are thick, and the face armor is embedded with a pair of red glass eyes, which looks very powerful.

An old silver-haired man crouched and was fitting foot armor to it.

Jiang Yan walked over and introduced Kai Ming: "This is the scientist I hired from abroad, Dr. Lemon. ”

When the foreign man turned around, he startled Kemin.

This big-nosed guy is the doctor from the American Research Institute, and when Kaiming was imprisoned as a monster, he was tortured a lot, so he was particularly impressed.

How did he come to China? Could it be to track down the metal inhuman? Calm down, he has never seen the true face of the metal inhuman, maybe because of the last escape, he couldn't stay in the United States, so he came to China to look for a job, yes, it must be so!

Kaiming shook hands with him amicably, he only regarded Kaiming as an ordinary person, unaware that he was facing a metal inhuman.

Lemon turned to Jiang Yan and said, "Your friend is so handsome. ”

Jiang Yan glanced at Kai Ming with a smile, "It's really good-looking." ”

This gringo really shines people's shoes, and if he sees the person who compliments him mutate into a monster, his jaw will surely fall to the ground.

"What is it?" said Kemin, turning his attention to the iron armor.

"It's an alloy armor I developed. Lemon tapped the armor on its surface, making a metallic whine, "It has more strength than steel, and its lightweight body can withstand the strafing of thirty-two millimeter bullets. Humans wear it and, with the help of a pneumatic booster, can run at a speed of 50 kilometers for an hour and easily jump over obstacles up to seven meters high. ”

"It sounds like a stake, but what is it for?" asked Kemin.

"I will arm it, and whoever wears it will become an all-round warrior," Lemon said. ”

Kai Ming and Jiang Yan followed him to a small platform where a mechanical arm was placed.

"This is a manipulator for testing, and I believe it will surprise you. ”

He told Keming to put his left glove in, and when he heard a click, the mechanical equipment locked automatically.

Kaiming moved his robotic arm, and his fingers and joints were very flexible, just like a normal arm.

Lemmon retrieved a thick steel pipe and shoved it into Keming's robotic hand, "Hold it tightly with all your might." ”

Kemin tightened his mechanical fingers, and the steel pipe bent and became indented with five large fingerprints, the force of which amazed him.

"I was going to install a machine gun for it, but it didn't seem legal in China, so I developed a high-energy laser weapon for it. Lemmon said.

This guy is a lunatic.

After an afternoon of wandering around the research institute, Jiang Yan proposed to have dinner together when he came out, but Kai Ming couldn't find a reason to refuse.

"I now solemnly invite you to join the Jiang Group. ”

Kai Ming had just stuffed a piece of cut beef into his mouth, and Jiang Yan finally said what he had been thinking in his heart for a long time.

"No kidding, what can I do for the Jiang Group?" his first job when he came out of society was a trader, and he didn't know what else to do besides this profession.

"I hired you as the general manager of the group with a high salary. Jiang Yan said.

"How tall?"

"Six million. ”

Oh my God, the job of a financial company is only 300,000 yuan a year, and the same general manager is too different.

"In the Jiang Group, do your words work? I mean, should you consult your father first?" Kai Ming was worried that she was impulsive, after all, she was a rich second generation, and her father was the president of the group.

"My dad agreed. ”

This father and daughter are too unreliable, how can they recruit a person who has only known each other for two days into the company, and arrange them in important positions, it's just messy.

"I'm in a mess right now, can you let me think about it. ”

Jiang Yan nodded and said, "I will prepare the contract and wait for you to come to sign it." ”

God, her serious look doesn't look like a joke.

When he drove home, he had forgotten what to eat for dinner, and his mind was full of her warm invitation, and he felt that he had been hit by a pie falling from the sky, and he was completely confused.

After returning from Egypt, good things have been going on, and I thought that my lost wife was back with me, and the lost position was back in my hands, and I also met a high-salary invitation.

Kaiming was happy, but he felt a chill in his back, strange things had been happening lately, he was worried that everything was just a fantasy now, in fact, he had never left Egypt, he was still a monster huddled in a dark corner with scales all over his body, or a madman in a mental hospital, there had never been a Nile monster, a man-eating beetle, an alien.

The hand trembled and reached into his pocket, the gold necklace was still there, as if everything was caused by it.

The car gradually drove out of the suburbs, without the hustle and bustle of the city, the surroundings suddenly became silent, and after a ten-minute drive, a riverside villa area appeared in sight. Only half of the residences in the villa complex are lit up, and the other half is hidden in the night. Due to its distance from the city, it is not suitable for living, but it does not hinder the enthusiasm of speculators, and people who see and sell houses always wander around the villa area every day.

As he passed by the street lamp in front of his house, Kaiming looked up and saw that the dog skin hanging on it had been removed.

Who is doing this prank?

Kaiming opened the door of the house, and without stepping inside, he looked inside. I don't know if Angel has eaten? Such a big person should be able to take care of himself.

"What are you looking at?" Angel suddenly appeared behind her, startling Kemin.

She was wearing a pair of flip-flops and carrying a large bag of plastic bags with the logo of a nearby supermarket.

"Why are you sneaking around at your doorstep?"

"I'm not sneaky. Kaiming was a little confused, "What's in your hand?"

Angel opened the bag to let him see enough, it was full of snacks such as biscuits and potato chips, "They are my dinner, I wanted to wait for you to come back and cook for me, but you haven't come back for a long time, the place is remote, you can't order takeout, the bus only runs once an hour, I can only go to the supermarket to get something to eat." ”

Kai Ming shook his head helplessly, this woman is too worry-free.

"By the way, the police came to your door just now. Angel said.

Kai Ming was stunned, "What are you looking for me?"

Angel approached him and whispered, "I heard that the neighbor's dog was skinned and hung on a lamppost, and the prisoner hasn't been caught yet." ”

"Other people's dogs, what does it have to do with me?"

"I don't know. Anyway, the police came to the door and said they wanted to question you. ”

Hearing her say this, Kaiming remembered that he ran to the neighbor's house to complain last night because the dog was barking.

Is it difficult to become the object of suspicion of the police because of this?

While pondering, he followed Angel into the house, took off his heavy leather shoes, and planned to change into slippers, only to find that the flip-flops in the shoe cabinet were stained with mud.

It's strange, these shoes are for him, and he never wears them out of the house, what's the matter with this dirt?

But it's nothing, wash and wear again.

Angel fell on the sofa in the living room, eating mist food and watching TV. Keming pushed her feet away to squeeze a little space for herself.

Angel glanced at him, obviously there was a short sofa next to him, why did he have to squeeze with others?

The TV broadcast the news: "According to the latest news received by this station, because the metal alien has appeared frequently in the city in recent days, the government is organizing personnel from the Animal Husbandry Research Institute of the agricultural department to search the whole city, hoping to find the traces of the metal alien." ”

Kaiming rolled his eyes, "Damn, do they treat me as a domestic animal? ”

"You are on fire again in front of the people of the whole country. Angel looked at him gloatingly.

"I won't tell you, I'll peel apples. Cumming squeezed her away and scrambled her ass to the kitchen.

Angel stuck out her tongue at him, "Sharpen it, why do you look proud?"

Apples in the fridge, what about knives?

It was a trivial matter for Jamin to find that the sharpener he used to use was not in the kitchen cabinet, but his hairs stood on end when he thought of the police visit, the muddy slippers, and the dog skin that hung from the lamppost.

He walked around the whole house, the doors and windows were all good, it could not be an outsider breaking in, it could only be the work of someone in the house.

I remember going to the neighbors to complain last night, and I never went out after I came back, and they also led the dog into the house, but how did it happen later?

Kaiming thought hard and let himself be like a great detective, putting all the clues together to come to the most reasonable conclusion, and although the results were not satisfactory, he had to admit that this was how things happened......

He had always hated the neighbor's puppy, even a rich dog with a pleasing snow-white coat, whose incessant barking would only bore him. This emotion unconsciously builds up in the subconscious, and finally, in the dead of night, it drives him to get out of bed, put on flip-flops, and find a knife in the familiar kitchen.

Come on, it's not hard to climb over the flowers in the yard and sneak into the neighbor's house.

Go, it's lying on the mahogany floor.

The movement should be silent, before it opens its eyes, the cold light pierces the warm neck, and the bright red will release the resentment of the past.

You can hang a flag on the second lamppost in front of the door, wait for the sun to rise, seal the memory in the depths, and go to work like the usual Muna, as if it were a sleepwalk.
