Chapter 44: A New Fellowship
In the morning, the sun has driven away the cold of the morning, and the soft and warm sunlight is sprinkled on the earth, adding a touch of vitality to the whole world.
Hanrui drove his overlord on a rampage down the highway, thrusting through the traffic on the highway and throwing cars behind.
Simon saw that the speed of the car had reached one hundred and eighty yards, and the scenery outside the window quickly regressed, leaving behind the afterimage of the road. He asked the driver who came to pick him up a little weakly, "Is it really okay for us to drive so fast?"
"It's okay, we're hanging the sign of the Special Bureau, and the police won't take care of it, you can rest assured. Han Rui replied nonchalantly, and then stepped on the accelerator again and blasted directly to two hundred yards, grazing the edge of the crowd of cars and overtaking it.
"Who cares what sign you hang up? Lao Tzu is afraid that you will have a car accident, and when the time comes, the victim will have to leak some skills to save his life!"
Simon kept cursing the crazy bastard in front of him, but said with a grin on his face, "Is it?
"When you get to the bureau to report, you will also be issued a special license at that time. Thinking that he was envious of his license plate, Han Rui quickly turned his head and smiled at him to explain, passing between the two large trucks by the way.
"Oh, that's good." Simon laughed dryly twice, and then
quickly shut up and didn't say a word more, for fear that he would forget that he was driving a death car when he patronized!
The journey, which originally took more than half a day, only took more than four hours to reach the destination with Hanrui's superb technology.
His destination was on the northwest edge of Fred City, a wilderness with sparsely populated landscapes that few people visited on a normal day.
The Montaichi Prefecture Special Bureau Branch is located in the military base here, or the military base outside is just a shell of the Special Bureau.
It's been a while since the last incident ended, and when Simon sensed that the time was almost up, he dialed the phone number left for him by the Anomalies Bureau at that time.
Naturally, there is no problem with this aspect of the Special Bureau, and he asks him very humanely if he still needs some time to arrange his own private events.
Simon immediately said that he hoped to officially participate in the work, contribute his own strength to the Special Bureau, and make a small contribution to maintaining world peace.
After all, he fed the whole family by himself, and he didn't have so many personal things to do. The most valuable thing in the house was the Book of Morello's Mystical Books, but it had been tossed into the Mirror of Eternity and devoured.
This also made Simon realize that he was thinking a little wrong, it turned out that it was not only those dark creatures that could provide food for the Mirror of Eternity, this kind of magic item could also play a lot of roles, and there was also one more type when collecting resources later.
After passing the inspection of the janitor, Han Rui drove the car into the base and parked it, Simon finally breathed a sigh of relief, quickly got out of the car, and took his car after killing him.
Bill Ajilie, who had been waiting for a while, walked up and stretched out his right hand in a friendly manner, "Simon, welcome to join the Special Bureau, I am Bill Ajilie, the leader of the third group of the logistics research team, and we will be colleagues in the future." ”
Simon stretched out his hand and shook it, and said very politely, "It's my pleasure, Team Leader Bill." ”
Taking the opportunity of shaking hands, Simon had already roughly observed the tall, thin man with eyes in front of him, he was about thirty-five years old, he looked very confident and energetic, his personality didn't look very difficult to get along with now, and most importantly, he was just an ordinary person.
The two hands shook slightly, and then quickly put them down.
Bill Aguilie's first impression of his new subordinate was quite good, and he was not as eccentric as he imagined to be a potions master, and it seemed that it would not be too difficult to get along with him in the future.
"Let's go, I'll familiarize you with the environment first. Bill Ajlie smiled slightly,
With Simon around, he walked to a bungalow in the back.
Simon followed him, and after going through layers of disinfection and inspection, Bill took Simon, who had changed his clothes, to the scientific research department on the third floor of the military camp.
As the encrypted elevator stopped, Simon looked at the scene in front of him and exclaimed half-truthfully, "This, this, this is just cool." ”
He looked around like a bun and kept exclaiming. Bill Ajiri, who was next to him, didn't urge him, and let him look around.
Everything in front of him was simply unexpected, almost like the laboratory in a science fiction movie shot in DreamWorks, full of all kinds of science fiction feelings.
Bill walked into the hall, tapped the keys on the table, took out a thin card from the open drawer, and then walked over and handed it to Simon, saying with a solemn expression.
"This is your pass, you can use it to eat and play, though
You have to keep in mind that it only allows you to pass through the C-level areas of the base, and once you travel to the more advanced areas, it doesn't do anything. If you force your way inside, the alarm will be triggered, and the security personnel will shoot at that time. ”
Simon took the card and flipped through it, and said casually, "What am I doing there, I'm just here to mix up a pension, and I don't have that much curiosity." ”
"That's good. Bill Aguilie nodded, and walked directly to the back area with him, and told a not-so-funny joke by the way, "Then you have come to the right place, our logistics research team is the department with the largest number of pensions, and no one in the warhead next door has received a pension for eight consecutive years, haha." ”
Simon, who lacked humor, laughed twice, and Bill changed the subject a little awkwardly, "I'll take you to meet our office, our office area is in the C3 area, originally there were only five people in our group, but after you came, there were six of us." ”
Simon followed Bill towards Area C, and it was a real eye-opener along the way.
It seems to be a shelter for strange creatures, not only those dark creatures, but also many unique and strange lifeforms.
For example, in the huge glass tank in front of you, in the light blue liquid, a dolphin-like creature with three eyes more than one meter long and transparent glowing is swimming happily in it.
As if noticing Simon watching it, the strange dolphin swam up to the glass jar and stared at Simon curiously, spitting out a string of bubbles from time to time.
"Hey, Vera. Bill saw the dolphin swim over, stretched out his hand to greet it, then pointed at Simon and said, "This is our new member, Simon come and say hello to Vera!"
"Hello Vera, I'm Simon, and I'm very happy to see you. Simon greeted the dolphin in a kind way.
Unexpectedly, this strange dolphin immediately let out a pleasant song, and it kept gently slapping the water, as if responding to Simon's greeting.
"Look, Vera is welcoming you. Bill explained Vera's movements to Simon, "According to our observations, Vera's IQ is very high, much smarter than ordinary people, and after our training, Vera has been able to understand the common words of Shikoku, and can also calculate addition and subtraction within 10,000." ”
Vera, who had been listening to their conversation, stretched out her head proudly and swam in place, expressing her special satisfaction with Beale's compliment.
After saying goodbye to Vera, Bill took Simon for a while before arriving at their office area.
The only difference between the environment in Area C and the previous one is that there are a lot of strange plants, but there are not many strange creatures seen in front of you.
In the hall of the office, a young man was boredly cutting the poker in his hand, and as soon as Simon came in, he greeted him familiarly. "Hey, man, are you the new Potions Master?"
Simon nodded and said happily, "Yes, I'm Simon, and it's nice to meet you." ”
The young man's five fingers turned slightly, and the poker in his palm was neatly organized, and he put down the poker and walked over, "Ryan Svik, you can just call me Ryan, welcome to join us." ”
It wasn't until the two of them had said hello that Bill asked, "What about the three of them?"
Ryan shrugged his shoulders and pointed to the workshop in front of him, "Well, someone sent materials over just now, and they're analyzing them inside." ”
"By the way, Simon, would you like to see how they work first?" Ryan said to Simon with a smirk.
Bill didn't stop him when he heard this, and a strange smile appeared on his face.
"Ryan, then you go around with Simon first, and I'll help him apply for a room and basic items. Bill said with a smile on his face and quickly turned and walked out of the office.
"Well, go ahead, I'll show Simon around. Ryan grabbed Simon and pulled him into the workshop, "Hurry, hurry, maybe they'll be busy and won't be able to see each other later." ”
When Simon entered the workshop, he saw two of his colleagues at first sight. One of them was holding a pen and constantly recording, and the other was constantly stuffing something into his mouth.
Simon took a few steps forward, just as he was about to say hello to them.
The man with short hair and short hair, wearing a casual suit, sitting on a chair with Erlang's legs crossed, in Simon's stunned eyes, took out a twelve-thirteen centimeter insect from the plate in front of him with an expressionless face, and the yellow was covered with countless barbed antennae, and constantly sprayed out with brown juice, and then stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it slowly, and the juice splashed everywhere.
"It doesn't taste as bad as you think!" the man said as he chewed, "Kevin noted that this thing has the ability to hallucinate in small amounts, and the juice secreted can numb the pain. Well, also, they live on the cerebral marrow of humans and animals, and the parasitic eggs can survive for decades. ”
The man sucked back the juice that kept flowing from his mouth as he spoke, "This bug is rich in calories, enough to support an adult to walk a distance of about two kilometers. ”
When they were completely busy, Ryan shouted at them, "Bell, Kevin, our new colleague is here." ”
