Chapter 776: A Crack in the Heart
Chen Qiong knows what Xie Ling's so-called help means, and now the efficiency office is under the actual management of Xie Ling, and the few staff who once entered the efficiency office by mistake because of the last elimination system are also counted, and the personnel who came out of the Kangning Institute of the Yashan Production Brigade to "re-employ" have always been a hidden danger in Xie Ling's heart.
Xie Ling knew very well what these people were, so she invited Chen Qiong to come from time to time and use her abilities to "detect" the "psychological state" of these special employees.
Chen Qiong immediately responded, although Xie Ling's move made it clear that she did not trust her father Wang Lu's magical blood and her ability to "purify" her own abilities, but Xie Ling was also for everyone's good.
Last week, the Ministry of Agriculture applied to bring in more zombies to help manage farmland.
Chen Qiong hurried to the school, found Zheng Jiayan, stuffed her with a letter, and whispered, "It's Lu Kai." β
Zheng Jiayan's mental state is different from the past, she is much more cheerful and enthusiastic, and she will joke with her peers from time to time. She took the letter, opened it generously, and frowned: "Lu Kai, this guy, what an ugly word." β
She looked at the letter at a glance, and in the letter, Lu Kai told Zheng Jiayan that he had traveled all the way and inquired about Zheng Jiaxi's whereabouts everywhere, but unfortunately he was disappointed everywhere, but he did not give up. Because Zheng Jiaxi's identity is not ordinary, it is possible that he was mixed with the zombie group and avoided the survivors' settlement. Therefore, he will continue to search, and with the expansion of the scope of activities of the Yashan caravan, he will be able to find Zheng Jiaxi one day.
"I'll definitely take Jiaxi back to Yashan." Lu Kai wrote in the letter.
Zheng Jiayan bit her lip gently, she also looked forward to her sister returning to her side, but when the time came, between the three of them, ...... She sighed secretly and continued reading the following. Next, it was Lu Kai who boasted about his "great achievements" along the way, what shot injured the three leaders of Qiangjiao fishermen, and the Great Wall on the night of the typhoon to reduce the ugliness and so on. See the end. She suddenly burst out laughing, raised her eyes, and glanced at Chen Qiong meaningfully.
Chen Qiong smiled: "Don't you take your brother's letter seriously, see what I do?" β
Zheng Jiayan slapped Chen Qiong in shame: "What nonsense." Lu Kai is not my lover...... All right. You girl. will make fun of me, why don't you laugh at your brother Wang Bi'an, at such a young age. Everyone rushed to introduce him to a child daughter-in-law. β
Chen Qiong sighed in her heart, child daughter-in-law? What's going on? Wang Bi'an's letter to himself did not mention this!
Her face was impassive - to perform purification, it requires strong self-control, although Chen Qiong is young, but her self-control ability is not comparable to ordinary people, although her heart is shocked, but she does not show the slightest abnormality. She said indifferently: "Sister Zheng Jiayan, why did you become flamboyant like Lu Kai?" What a child daughter-in-law, it's a mess. β
Zheng Jiayan shook the letter and said: "Don't deny it, I don't believe that Wang Bi'an didn't write to you, Lu Kai said clearly, in Qiangjiao, their big leader introduced his daughter Zhou Min to Wang Bi'an as his wife." Lu Kai also secretly looked at Zhou Min's appearance, and said that he was quite handsome. β
Chen Qiong smiled: "That's good, I have an extra sister-in-law." "The relationship between her and Wang Bi'an is extremely secret, not to mention Zheng Jiayan, even Wang Lu didn't notice it.
Zheng Jiayan said with a smile: "Yo, these eight characters haven't been skimmed yet, you will call your sister-in-law, Lu Kai said, Uncle Wang rejected the other party on the spot." β
Chen Qiong wanted to snatch the letter in Zheng Jiayan's hand and read the content on it carefully without pulling a word, but in the end he held back, and at this time, the class bell rang and the students sat down one after another.
Class, class, and lunch in the cafeteria, Chen Qiong took advantage of the lunch break and hurriedly went to the efficiency office, Xie Ling had already waited in the office, and when she saw Chen Qiong rushing over, she smiled and said, "Do you want to rest for a while?" I've just eaten. β
Chen Qiong hurriedly said: "Sister, no, I have done something familiar, I still have to rush to the afternoon class." β
Xie Ling said heartily: "Okay, I'll go and call them over to report to work." She just stood up, but heard Chen Qiong ask casually, "Sister, what does that girl Zhou Min look like?" β
Leng Buding heard Chen Qiong ask this question, Xie Ling blurted out: "Then I don't know, your father Wang Lu only mentioned one sentence in the letter." Besides, anyway, this family affair turned yellow on the spot, what does it matter what Zhou Min looks like, even if he grows like a fairy, it has nothing to do with our family. β
Chen Qiong's heart sank again, and even in the letter received by Sister Xie Ling, this family affair was also mentioned, so why did Wang Bi'an hide herself?
Xie Ling didn't notice Chen Qiong's abnormality at all, her mind was full of vigilance against the smart corpses who stayed in the efficiency office, and hurriedly went out to summon the "re-employment" personnel who had been waiting outside the door for a long time.
The report began, and a "re-employed" person from the Kangning Institute sat on a stool in the office, sat upright with his hands on his knees, and looked directly at Xie Ling behind the desk without blinking.
He wore long coats and trousers, and in fact, even in the hottest summer months of the past, these people from Corning were all dressed thickly, because they had more or less wounds on their bodiesβwounds that were "relatively difficult to heal completely with current medical treatments," and long clothes and trousers became their standard attire, and even an alternative uniform for the Efficiency Office.
The so-called "reporting work" of the efficiency office already has a set of fixed procedures - Xie Ling opened the folder in front of her, which was a piece of printer paper with some questions and answers. These questions and answers are set by Xie Ling herself, and she believes that through these questions, she can test the true consciousness of these special employees who have no emotion and only know obedience.
Are they loyal to the king's road, loyal to Yashan, or are they still hiding thoughts in the deepest part of their hearts?
Xie Ling read out the first question:
"There are two basins in front of you, one of which is filled with raw pork. One has a live cat in it, and you want to eat that food. β
The staff member sitting on the stool was expressionless and said without thinking: "None of them are food, so they can't be eaten." β
Xie Ling remained silent and ticked the first question.
Second question: "How many zombies do you like to command?" β
"I can command zombies, but I don't know what it means to like, Captain Wang commands me to command as many zombies as I want."
The third question: "A zombie is eating people, a dog is biting, and a tiger is pounced on people." What do you think. Which one should be saved first? β
"I will wait for Captain Wang's orders."
"The order is that you must protect humanity."
"I'll save the human that the tiger pounced on."
"Why?"
"A person who is bitten by a zombie will not die, he will be transformed, and a person bitten by a dog will not die, he will only be injured. And the one who was pounced on by the tiger. His head could have been destroyed. I can't be converted, so I'm going to save him first. β
Xie Ling said loudly: "Wrong, people who are bitten by zombies are even more miserable." Because no one wants to be a zombie, such a life is more terrible than death. So you should save the person who was bitten by the zombie first. β
"Yes, I should save the people who were bitten by zombies first."
"Why do you want to save someone who has been bitten by a zombie, all three of them are in danger of life, and life is equal."
"Because you ordered me to save people who were bitten by zombies."
"Do you obey my orders?"
"Yes, I obey your orders."
"Why did you obey my orders?"
"Because I obey Captain Wang's orders. Captain Wang orders me to obey your orders. β
"What if Captain Wang orders you not to obey my orders?"
"I don't obey your orders."
"Will you obey Captain Wang's orders and kill people?"
"Captain Wang ordered us not to kill. Don't kill anyone. β
"It was Captain Wang who ordered you to kill."
There was a long silence, "Don't kill anyone." He repeated.
Xie Ling had a tough attitude: "Listen, this is a direct order from Captain Wang, he ordered you to kill." β
"Don't kill anyone. This is...... Come from...... The most, the highest directive, this is the highest...... Instruction ......" The staff stammered.
Xie Ling shrugged her shoulders: "Okay, the report is over, you can go out." β
The staff stood up and walked out of the office.
Xie Ling took a sip of tea: "It's still the same, forcing them into a corner, forcing them with a dilemma, and they start to stutter, just like an old-fashioned tape recorder cassette, repeating what supreme instructions over and over again." Wang Lu was their supreme leader, and they obeyed unconditionally, but this supreme leader gave them a supreme order not to kill, and then the supreme leader issued a direct order asking them to disobey the supreme order not to kill that he had made. As a result, they fall into a logical loop, not knowing which command to obey. However, judging from the current test, it is still the supreme command that does not kill that prevails. But it's hard to say, I'm just a test, if Wang Lu is standing in front of them, then I really don't know what the result will be. But then again, Chen Qiong, your supreme order not to kill, which is deeply rooted in their memories, is really quite effective. β
Chen Qiong sat at the desk on the side of the office, with a notebook in front of her, making notes - in fact, she had been using her abilities to detect the deep activity of the other party's brain waves since the staff member entered the office.
Xie Ling's series of questions are actually used in conjunction with Chen Qiong's ability, using a series of logical traps to detect the fluctuations of the opponent's brain waves. Zombie intelligent corpses have no external emotional performance, but there are ups and downs of brain waves, which is a bit similar to a lie detector, a clever criminal can let himself not have a trace of emotional external performance, but the panic detector may judge whether the other party is lying through changes in heartbeat, breathing, sweat and brain waves.
Chen Qiong is the same, any thoughts of the zombie corpse can be sensitively captured by her, if there is a fluctuation, or this fluctuation is abnormal with the past, it means that there is something wrong with this zombie.
Chen Qiong said: "My purification ability must cooperate with my father's blood mutation to have an effect, and it must be a blank mind at the moment when a living person transforms into a smart corpse, and forcibly insert an artificially made memory to be effective, and I have also tried to change the deep thoughts or memories of zombies or smart corpses in a waking state." All failed. β
Chen Qiong said that there is another kind of zombie or intelligent corpse that can be changed by her without the help of Wang Lu, that is, a zombie or intelligent corpse that is still in the fetal state. Xi Jiachao's unborn daughter was influenced by Chen Qiong, and the memory of the fetus that was once like a blank sheet of paper, with the help of Chen Qiong, successfully resisted the bad influence of her biological mother on her.
Xie Ling hugged her head and said: "Ah, sometimes I really envy a person with an ability like you, I used to be able to help my brother kill zombies, since I was injured." He became a half-wrecked person. I can only sit in the office and do these boring data work. β
Chen Qiong hurriedly said: "Sister, your body will definitely get better, besides, you have your father's ability." We don't need to fight and kill zombies and smart corpses every day now. β
Xie Ling waved and said, "Yes." Sister can't be comforted by your little doll. By the way, how did that guy behave just now? From my test here, nothing is wrong. Of course, I don't have any statistics here, so I'll have to listen to you. β
Chen Qiong thought for a while: "It's okay, I didn't notice that he was lying, the brain wave fluctuations at several key nodes were the same as the previous ones, either he was lying from beginning to end, or he always obeyed his father consistently." I didn't find anything wrong with the memory zone. β
Xie Ling nodded: "That's okay, next one." β
Another staff member in a long coat and trousers walked in.
Chen Qiong poked out her brain waves again......
This kind of report is very boring and monotonous, in order to detect the most subtle changes in the brainwaves of the Zhi corpse, Xie Ling deliberately made her tone not fluctuate at all, word by word, rhythm and volume.
Chen Qiong sensed the brain waves of the smart corpse while having a heart, but she didn't know where she flew.
Wang Bi'an, why didn't you tell me about Zhou Min in the letter?
Why did Wang Bi'an hide this?
Dad told his mother and Sister Xie Ling, and Lu Kai told Zheng Jiayan, but Wang Bi'an hid it from himself, why did he hide it?
Dad said he had turned down the business.
However, Wang Bi'an did not say that he rejected the family business.
Lu Kai said that the girl was very beautiful. (Lu Kai called Qu, I only said that Zhou Min is very delicate, when did beauty and beauty become synonymous?) οΌ
In his letter, Wang Bi'an didn't say a word about proposing relatives, nor did he say the name Zhou Min?
Why?
Is there something heβdoes he want me to know?
What does he mean to propose marriage and Zhou Min?
Does he mean anything to her?
Why did he hide it from me?
I'm so stupid, who am I? I'm just his sister, and I have no right to interfere in his affairs.
I'm not beautiful enough, Zheng Jiayan is much more beautiful than me, he is outside, he must be able to meet many girls who are more beautiful than me, without Zhou Min, there will be Li Min and Zhang Min who will meet him and know him...... Loved him.
Wang Bi'an is so good and is liked by girls, it's normal.
I am just an orphan daughter with no father and mother, and it was Chen Wei's mother who sympathized with me and accepted me as her daughter. I should be satisfied, I can't ask for too much......
He's my older brother...... It would be enough for me to be by his side as his sister...... No, no, I want more!
I know he likes me, and he must like me. I'm going to be by his side forever, and all the other girls will go away!
Xie Ling called in a few people one after another, asked questions, and then replaced, she didn't know that Chen Qiong, who was motionless next to her, had fallen into the battle between heaven and man.
Chen Qiong is just a child who is just beginning to fall in love, because she has a budding relationship with her titular brother Wang Bi'an, but she can't tell a third party, and she gets into the horns of the bull for a while. Zhou Min's appearance and Wang Bi'an's concealed letters made her suddenly feel an inexplicable danger, and the more she thought about it, the more she diverged.
In her heart, all kinds of inexplicable negative emotions unconsciously surfaced, jealousy, suspicion, complaint, and monopoly...... Even, resentment
Zhou Min, a girl Chen Qiong had never seen, became the enemy in her heart.
I only have Wang Bi'an, why do you still want to rob it, you are the daughter of the big leader of Qiangjiao, what do you want, why, you want to rob my Wang Bi'an!
Die!
Chen Qiong didn't realize that the negative emotions in her heart were not only shaking her own mind, but even affecting the Zhi corpse who was synchronizing with her brain waves, a staff member of the Efficiency Office who was being interrogated by Xie Ling.
Chen Qiong's purification ability is actually to project her memories and emotions into the brain of the smart corpse synchronously, she can use her positive, healthy, happy and good side to influence Xi Jiachao's daughter and the smart corpse who transformed the ecology at the beginning of the period, and similarly, the negative emotions in her brain will also affect the smart corpse in the state of synchronization.
This effect is very weak, and it can even be said that it is so inconspicuous that it can be ignored, but in certain circumstances, it can produce unintended consequences.
What's worse is that this kind of influence is still two-way, Chen Qiong just discovered the ability, because she felt the negative thinking from the zombie corpse and collapsed, so that Chen Wei once gave the order to prohibit her from touching the zombie corpse, it was Chen Qiong with strong perseverance who overcame the negative impact of the zombie corpse step by step, and made her purification ability the biggest help for Wang Lu.
Everyone, including Chen Qiong herself, believed that this kind of simultaneous negative effect when using the Purification ability could no longer cause harm to themselves.
But no one expected that today, when assisting Xie Ling to use the "work report" to detect the corpse, Chen Qiong cracked a thin crack in her heart because of the appearance of Zhou Min, a rival in love, and her own heart defense, a tiny crack that is not verifiable but enough to be fatal! (To be continued......)
