Chapter 314: Which Farewell? Which cilin?
The eyes of the people behind Parker were about to pop out, they didn't know why it was happening, they were all highly vigilant about Xilin for a while, and the sweat on the forehead of the person who pulled out the gun just now fell dripping, since he started doing this, he had never encountered such a thing today.
Parker waved his hand and smiled at Xilin: "The subordinates are not sensible and offended. ”
Parker knew that Cillin's movements were too fast just now, and there was no time for people to pay attention, and no one could keep up with his movements.
Who the hell is this guy? When did such a figure come to his own turf?
Before figuring out the other party's origins, Parker is not prepared to continue to make too many temptations and not be offended, after all, the other party has no intention of going against him now. And even if you want to be tempted, it's not now.
Thinking about it, Parker laughed and motioned for the person who had used the gun just now to apologize. The man was not ambiguous, his posture was very low, and after apologizing, he retreated to the back and stood still, wiping the sweat from his forehead, and his heart could not calm down for a while.
"It's okay, you can continue talking." Cillin said nonchalantly.
Seeing Sirin like this, Parker turned his head to look at Sarou, he couldn't figure out the relationship between this stranger and Sarou now, so, in order to avoid conflict, Parker's smile looked much more sincere, and he whispered, "You solved the three people in the alley, right?" Although they don't have any marks on them, I want to remind you that one of those three people has something to do with the small boss of Wanhai City, but since they have gone to my territory to spread wild, they will die if they die. ”
Hear the second half of the sentence. Sarou secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Wan Haicheng and several big bosses of the fox wolf had been trying to pull her into the gang, but she never agreed, and only made some deals with them in private. Part-time killers, after dealing with the target, they will get a sum of money, that's all, don't dare to involve too much with these two parties, let alone offend. She was afraid that Parker would threaten her with those things, but now it seems that Parker didn't mean that. I just don't understand if Parker's decision is because of this stranger or because of something else.
"Lately, you've been paying attention. Wanhai City is not very peaceful over there, and the people of the planetary government are also keeping an eye on it, so they are less hands-on and more cautious. ”
"Okay. Thank you Boss Parker for informing me. Sarou said. For Parker, Sarou is still more fearful.
"Okay, I'll stop bothering you."
Parker got up, gathered his cloak, and left with the man. It wasn't until he got upstairs that Parker felt the coldness behind him. Unconsciously, his back was already drenched with sweat, and if it wasn't for the cloak, others would definitely be able to see that although Parker just now didn't show anything on his face, he was actually lacking in confidence.
Parker quickly contacted a person. "Check this guy."
Saying that, Parker was about to send Cillin's image over, but found that all the images in the monitor were gone. There are also no video recordings of Xilin.
After Parker left, Sarou didn't immediately take Sirin back to Shitang. She needed to buy medicine, which was the main purpose of entering the city, and the medicine for the hall was running out.
"You're not curious about my relationship with the fox-wolf?" Sarou asked.
"I know a little, but there's no need to dig deeper."
In fact, what Sarou is doing now is very similar to Xilin, who was still a shadow hunter back then, if it was in the Star Alliance, Sarou would be a good hunter and be able to be absorbed by some good hunter groups, but unfortunately, this is the Lanza Empire.
Sarou is now more and more unable to understand the person in front of her, she is not old next year, but it feels very strange, it seems harmless, but in fact, it is not, even Parker, who has always been arrogant, did not take Qiao, and Sarou, who was originally going to be careful, did not dare to act at will. Forget it, as long as this person can get good treatment for his brother, he can do anything.
Getting off at a stop on the city speeder, Sarou came to a pharmacy with a familiar way, and the owner of the pharmacy saw Sarou and smiled: "Come to buy medicine again?" ”
"Well, it's still the same as last time."
Sarou often comes here to buy medicine, and the shopkeeper has known her for a long time, but when she saw Xilin next to Sarou, the shopkeeper's eyes looked at Xilin, and then she didn't have much interest, and invited a service robot to let it take the medicine.
After the transaction was completed, Sarou carefully packed the pharmacing bag, said goodbye to the shopkeeper and left.
"Can I see what you have in your hand?" After leaving the pharmacy, Xilin said suddenly.
After thinking about it, Sarou handed over the medicine, there shouldn't be any need for this person to make trouble with the medicine, after all, these drugs are not worth too much money, and it doesn't look like a lack of money, so this money should not be in his eyes.
Taking the medicine, Cillin opened the medicine bottle and sniffed it, his eyes flashed, and even the gray cat on his shoulder who was yawning with his eyes closed was also moved.
Following Xilin for so long, the other gray cats haven't learned much, and the corresponding price of the items The gray cat is getting more and more transparent, and it just saw that the money that Sarou gave to the pharmacy owner was not enough to buy a bag of fish biscuits with a new flavor, but the medicine in the bottle was ...... More than 50 bags!
The price here is not low, although the consumption level is not as good as the center of the urban agglomeration, but it will not be much worse, besides, the others can be cheaper, but the price of drugs should not be too different, so much money can buy such a good medicine?
Xilin sniffed and knew that it was probably that level of medicine, poured out a pill and re-fastened the medicine bottle, and then looked at the other bottles of medicine. After reading it, he returned the medicine to Sarou and didn't speak again.
"Is there something wrong?" Sarou asked. I was a little uncertain. My brother takes these kinds of medicines every time, and these kinds of medicines are really effective, if it weren't for these medicines, her brother would definitely not be able to hold on to now.
"Nothing, is there anything else to do? If not, let's go and see the temple. "Xilindao.
Although she was still skeptical, Sarou didn't insist on asking, "Let's go back, there's nothing wrong for the time being." ”
Originally, Sarou was going to dispose of the things that were fished out of the three people she killed today, but since Parker said that the wind has been tight recently, it is better to be careful. Wait until the rumor is over and find time to exchange the item for coins.
When Sarou wasn't looking, Sirin's fingers moved on the communicator. A new command was given to the robot. It seems that things are not as simple as they seem.
No wonder Shitang in such difficult conditions has been able to persist until now, and it turns out that there are still people in the shadows. But who is this person?
Sha Rou Shetang will definitely not know. The other party did it so secretively, and he would definitely not let Sha Rou and Shetang find out that something was wrong, so he could only check it himself.
At the entrance of the city, Xilin relived the situation of being stared at by strange eyes, and the staff there did not treat anyone who left the city very well, especially those who took the station train instead of driving their own flying car, which was called a contempt.
Sarou quietly looked at Sirin and saw that he was not affected by the eyes of those people. I admired it in my heart, and sure enough, the cattle people were silent. is like Parker, who is sometimes scared to death, but on the surface he still looks very calm. Sarou thinks that she is still not ready for the heat, and needs to practice.
The train out of town was in poor condition, crowded with people, carriage environments with all kinds of weird smells and noisy foul-mouthed people everywhere, most of them aliens. Some were slaves who had been released to visit relatives, and some were residents of the city.
Many of these people have quite good combat effectiveness, and even if their combat effectiveness is not good, they will have a great advantage in other aspects, but they are very satisfied with their current life. Although it is a slave, as long as it is obedient. Be willing to work hard and follow a good master. Living conditions can be better than those of the average city dweller.
In the carriage where Xilin was located, there was a xenomorph who was showing off a gem rewarded by his master, and the eyes of the people around him glowed green, if it weren't for the fact that this person was not easy to deal with, they would have gone up to grab it.
The gray cat glanced at the so-called "jewel", which was less than the size of the flesh pad of the soles of its feet, closed its eyes and went back to sleep. I muttered to myself: It's not as attractive as half a bag of fish biscuits.
After leaving the city, the scene is like entering a different time and space, and the bustling city scene of high-rise buildings that I saw a moment ago is like a fleeting light, fleeting, replaced by an area like ruins.
Seeing their own residential area, some people in the carriage began to roar, many of whom were slaves who had not been out of the city for several years.
At every stop, someone would go down, and some flying xenos would just spread their wings and roar and jump out of the carriage and fly down, with a great sense of impatience. The closer she got to her destination, the more she couldn't sit still, eager to go back and see how her brother was doing.
"Cillin, do you want me to solve those little mice that are following us?" The gray cat whispered to Cillin.
"No, let them follow."
"Okay." The gray cat reluctantly clawed, and the paws itched again.
As soon as she arrived at the station, Sarou couldn't wait to rush out, Xilin followed her, and there were people watching from the hall, and he was not afraid of accidents.
In fact, in this remote area of ruins, the space occupied by each household is not small, but most of the land is uninhabitable, and a lot of the soil contains radioactive elements and some toxic substances, so if you want to live in it, you have to deal with it yourself.
The place where Shetang and Sarou live is what they have dealt with by themselves, otherwise they will be killed by those substances in less than half a year of living here.
A low-slung house with an area of about 100 square meters does not look good, but those who know it can see many clues, although the materials used are very rough, but the machinery assembled from those inferior materials is not as bad as it seems.
When Xilin entered the house, Sarou was taking out the medicine for Shitang to eat.
The person who took the medicine with a glass of water was less than twenty years old, but he was so thin that he was only skinny, his complexion was quite bad, and his hair had almost fallen out, and only a few sparse ones remained. His eyes were sunken and his nostrils were stained with blood that had not been completely wiped off - because his condition was often bleeding uncontrollably, and his skin was darkened, according to the complexion of the sa, which was not Shitang's original complexion, but the cause of the deterioration.
Sarou told Shitang about Xilin, but Shitang didn't immediately say that although his complexion was very bad, Xilin could see a kind of persistence in those sunken eyes, perhaps, if it wasn't for Xilin's "take them away", Shitang would definitely refuse immediately.
If she can leave, Sayo won't have to travel around the city anymore.
Xilin didn't rush, and looked at the house, there were a lot of old machinery and electrical appliances in it, most of which should have been discarded and picked up by Shitang to repair and prepare to sell. Shitang's health is not good, and he can't go around the city like Saro.
Suddenly. Xilin's eyes fell on a set of old modified microbrains, which are actually not microbrains, its volume is five or six times larger than ordinary microbrains, and subsequent modifications account for the main reason.
Shitang's source of income used to be the repair of some worn-out electrical appliances. Later, when Xilin's "return" forum appeared, Shitang interviewed and answered some reward questions, and while watching the debates of the industry leaders, he also found a new way to come to the economy.
There are also a lot of formulas written on a drawing board next to it, and according to these formulas, you can see that the show has really studied this aspect deeply, and he has a strong calculation ability.
Cillin noticed a shake in the communicator on his wrist and lowered his head to press one of the buttons on it. Look at the encrypted message composed of strings sent by the bot that went to investigate.
"I want to ask, why did you choose me?" Shitang asked. He is not the kind of researcher who does not care about the world, and he sees many things very clearly.
"You have that potential." Cillin pointed to the second formula on the drawing board and said, "I can use this formula." You're halfway there. ”
Shitang paused, "It's not that I'm suspicious, but I really can't believe that there are such good conditions, we have lived here for more than ten years, but no one cares." And I had no formal education, not even a primary education, and no one would accept the recognition of someone like me. ”
There's no denying that today's academia places too much weight on the educational background behind people. So much so that a lot of good seedlings have been lost. This is one of the more acute issues pointed out by Cillin in St. Callenberg.
Cillin waited for Shitang to finish speaking, and took out the pills he had poured from the medicine bottle earlier. "Do you know what this medicine is?"
Shitang looked at Sarou, who was also puzzled. He said: "I don't know much about drugs, and Sarou has always been in charge of buying them." ”
Every once in a while, Sarou would go to the city to buy medicine, this was just one of the purposes for Sarou to go to the city, secretly she didn't know about her deal with the fox wolf and those people in Wanhai City, he wouldn't have thought that his sister had no less than a hundred lives in his hands.
Xilin naturally understands that before this, Sarou also told Xilin to keep it a secret. When Sarou fidgeted for fear that Xilin would leak her mouth, Xilin continued: "Do you know the value of these drugs? ”
Cillin pointed to the several pill bottles on the table, "These bottles are worth enough to buy a good flying car." ”
Syllable!
The metal cup in Shitang's hand fell, and he looked at Sarou in shock, where did they get so much money?! But it turns out that Saro's reaction is similar to that of him.
"How so?" Sarou muttered.
"What I want to say is that you have been watched all the time, but the people behind it don't want you to die, this medicine is not bad, it's not too good, but it's enough to hang your life. You should know how lethal the electromagnetic radiation and many rays involved in your experiments are, not to mention that you have no protection. ”
Sha Rou and Shitang also remembered that three years ago, the medicine she bought back had a very good effect after taking it, and since then, she has been taking the same medicine for three years. In this way, the people behind them have been paying attention to them for more than three years, and they are unaware of it!
Sarou stood up abruptly, "Could it be the fox wolf's people?" Or are you from Wanhai City? How could they pay attention to my brother's research?! ”
Even Shitang, who doesn't go out much, knows how horizontal the fox wolf and those people in Wanhai City are, and if he catches up with them, it will be difficult to get out.
"No wonder...... No wonder I was able to pick up those materials, hehe, it was arranged. Shitang covered his head, the reason why he desperately researched and wanted to make results was to get rid of such an environment and get rid of such a life, but in the end, he was told that he had always been under the control of others, under the control of those who regarded them as slaves, which made Shitang how willing!
Moreover, those people are obviously paying attention, but they do not provide a good research environment and conditions, which shows that they do not really value it, this is more like a kind of charity, see that you are pitiful, the research is not bad, just throw a few sweeteners to you.
The atmosphere in the room was heavy for a while, and Shitang didn't fully trust Xilin, because in Shitang's eyes, Xilin also discriminated against xenomorphs like those slave owners.
The gray cat flicked its ears and yawned boredly, and suddenly, its eyes were aimed at the broken micro-brain, and said: "That's called showing something, I'll use your micro-brain, it's too boring, I'll play first, you talk slowly." ”
Shetang's mind is in a mess now, and he doesn't care. Without answering, the gray cat saw this as a tacit approval, jumped off Cillin's shoulder, walked over and jumped on the table, and squatted in front of Shitang's broken brain. Raise your paws to start landing on the landing page. With outsiders there, it doesn't dare to let people know its ability to control mechanical data without moving, so it can only move its cat's claws to make a show.
As soon as I saw the situation in the forum that it occupied the area all year round, the gray cat became popular.
"Meow! If you don't have these guys for a few days, you're going to make a fuss! The gray cat crouched there and flicked its tail unpleasantly.
Shitang looked at the gray cat, he was afraid that the gray cat would destroy his only microbrain, but he was surprised when he saw the picture on the microbrain.
"You also go to 'The Return'?" Shitang looked curiously at the gray cat squatting in front of the microbrain and skillfully moving its paws, and walked over to take a look. This look at Shitang was stunned, like a stone sculpture, his eyes staring unblinkingly at the picture on the dim light screen that flickered on his microbrain, and the login name.
"Farewell?" Shitang almost shook a word. It's unbelievable.
If you want to talk about celebrities in the free debate area, who doesn't know the name "Hu Beilu", the one who has been active in the debate area since the establishment of the forum and "quarreled" with many famous experts, and said that he stunned several old pedants. Many speculated that he was from the Royal Academy of Sciences, and the people of the Royal Academy were collectively silent. If the people of the Royal Academy of Sciences answer no, it is definitely another case of "slapping the face of a folk master", and they will not do this kind of reputation-damaging thing, and it is because of this. This speculation was tacitly acquiesced by many.
But now, Shido looked at the scene in front of him. There was a feeling of being nailed with a hammer. This is the legendary "Hubei Road"? The magical character who is adored by countless people and has a bunch of back-ups in the support team every time he "quarrels". He's actually a cat?!
The face of the temple that froze there twisted and twisted again.
And the gray cat squatting in front of the broken brain didn't pay attention to the strange appearance of the show, and was busy "quarreling" with the few people who were making a lot of noise inside.
In such a situation, there is no reason not to believe the identity of the person in front of him, no, the cat in front of him.
Shetang was quickly attracted by the content of the "quarrel" on the forum, a purely academic quarrel, and such an atmosphere really made him ...... Adrenaline rush! Now I don't care about the value pills, no matter what the people behind them, they are all immersed in the debate on the forum.
"Meow a mi! This old guy is still hard-mouthed! His matrix equation was originally wrong, Xilin, this old guy must be severely punished! Such a person is still a senior professor, and he is a child of a mistake! The gray cat yelled as she used its fat paws to enter the correct matrix equations.
Westwood?
Westwood!!?
This name is definitely at the forefront of Shitang's dictionary, so much so that the gray cat grabbed these two words as soon as Shitang said them.
"Where...... Which cilin? Shitang's distorted expression cracked, and his words were hurried and excited.
The video of the lecture report in the twenty-third star domain did not come out, or it was cleared when it came out. Even in the forum, there are no images and pictures about Xilin, so many people in the industry have only heard the name "Xilin" but have not seen its real person.
However, those who had listened to the whole lecture in the academic hall of St. Calenberg at the time would say something about the second half of the lecture when they went to the forum. For many people, especially those young researchers who have been pressed to the bottom for many years with dreams that seem unattainable to others, Xilin is a myth, a myth in academia.
Shitang's breathing became more and more rapid, and before the "return" appeared, Shitang heard about Xilin, but at that time, Xilin's name was only circulated in a small area in the industry, and people in the virus research circle were more familiar with this name, but with the spread of part of the content of the later lecture, Xilin's deeds gradually became known to more people. Then came the creation of the "Return" forum, which took the academic community by storm. It can be said that Xilin is an idol worshiped by countless young people. Even Sarou, who didn't know much about the academic world, also knew this name under the influence of Shitang, and knew this amazing figure who was not a few years older than them.
Just as Shitang was getting excited, Sirin looked out the door.
"Why don't you come in quickly, what are you doing with your probe?"
As Cilin's words fell, a round mechanical head poked out through the crack in the door, and then pushed open the door and twisted in with an embarrassed look.
"Well, when we met for the first time, I heard that the visitor was going to bring a visiting gift, so please accept it." Ah Yue said "restrainedly".
Xilin twitched on his face, how familiar is the so-called visit ceremony in Ah Yue's hand. (To be continued)! ~!
