Chapter 9 What is handmade ramen?
Once Li Lin announced this will and got a stake in Lotus Technology, he put himself in the spotlight.
If there are other masterminds behind Xia Lian's death, the other party is likely to do something to Li Lin, which can be regarded as playing into Li Lin's arms.
It's just that it may also startle the other party and scare the other party away because of this.
In that case, the gains outweigh the losses.
In the end, there were really no clues, and Li Lin was not ready to do so.
Drinking the wine from the glass, the glass was placed on the table, and the holograms in the void quickly dissipated.
Li Lin lay on the sofa and closed his eyes.
I encountered so many things on the first day of work, it was a continuous rotation, and it was terrible.
Thinking about what happened today, I can't believe I'm only on my first day on the job.
Tomorrow, I will ask Lao Wu to take a leave to deal with personal matters, and I won't have time to meet my old friends when I return to Midtown.
Slept and slept.
The next day, Li Lin slept until three o'clock in the morning before getting up, sent a message to Wu Dalong to say hello, and went out to get on the bus.
There are not many people on the bus, and the fully automatic and driverless silent carriage is particularly comfortable.
Li Lin sat by the car window and looked at the towering skyscrapers outside, as well as the delivery drones and various functional drones that kept flying in the low air, trying to suppress the urge to lie down on the spot and find cover in his heart, and adapt to the current environment.
It's still good here in Zhongzhou, drones are used for daily life.
When you are in the war zone, once you can see the enemy's drone with the naked eye, it is basically not far from death.
Of course, Li Lin's coalition government army uses countless drones, sometimes carrying out clean-up operations and combat missions, and all kinds of combat drones are like locust swarms, covering the sky and the sun.
And it's highly intelligent, so it can quickly identify enemy targets and hunt them effectively.
Midtown is worthy of being known as the cyber capital, and most of the drones flying in the sky are food delivery robots, and the smell of various meals wafts when they arrive at the meal.
The pedestrians on the road are also colorful, and the proportion of people who have undergone limb and organ modification is much higher than elsewhere.
Although most people have only made minor changes to their organs, eyes, fingers, etc., from time to time you can still see people with major changes to their arms and legs.
There is also a large proportion of the elderly, most of whom are installed with medical insurance smart devices, all with annual inspection barcodes.
Due to the rapid development of civilian cyber technology, human life expectancy has been greatly extended again, with an average of more than 100 people, and it is estimated that it will be even higher.
At the same time, from time to time, you can see some stand-in intelligent devices on the street, either acting alone or following their own masters.
These stand-in intelligent machines are equivalent to a clone of ordinary people, and it is much more convenient to directly connect the brain computer to mind control.
Due to its high price, the existence of stand-in smart machines is equivalent to the luxury cars of many years ago, and they are a tool for the rich to show off and have fun.
Li Lin was thinking about it, when a strong aroma of pepper came to his nose, and the bus stopped quietly.
Fuzhou Road arrived.
Different from the sense of science and technology in the new area, Fuzhou Road is an old alley, where more than one or two hundred years old buildings maintain the original cultural atmosphere, and many buildings are cultural relics protection units.
He got out of the car and looked at the source of the fragrance, and saw that in an old house, a wooden signboard of "Fuwang Chongqing Small Noodles Handmade" was very eye-catching.
The oil-stained twist flowers on the signboard have become dark because of the smoke and fire, and there is still an hour before the meal, and it is already full of people, and there is even a team of tourists under the guidance of the intelligent machine guide, who is feasting.
Li Lin said to himself:
"I came to Midtown to eat Chongqing noodles...... Interesting ...... of Zhente Niang"
Then he strode into the store, looked at the boss who was sitting behind the counter, and said with a smile:
"Boss, why are you doing this as a manual cashier? What age is this? Bring me a bowl of AH noodles. ”
The boss, who was looking down at the hologram, raised his head as he spoke:
"Our store focuses on artificial retro, and manual cashier is also a feature, and AH board surface is ...... Woods!? ”
In the voice of surprise, the boss who kept a plate inch jumped out directly from behind the counter, punched Li Lin in the shoulder, and scolded with a smile:
"You're fucking alive?"
Li Lin also punched him and scolded with a smile:
"Your fucking Boss Zhou is not dead, I don't dare to leave, why don't I cry for you?"
"You want to kill me, join the army and think you died in the war zone, go outside and talk about it." The man was combing the board inches, the upper body was a little fat, the lower body was two conspicuous mechanical legs, and a round face, which was Li Lin's hair in the orphanage.
I found a seat outside and sat down, the two hadn't seen each other for many years, and chatted about their respective situations. Knowing that Zhou Ye had married a wife and had children, Li Lin couldn't help but sigh.
"Okay, Lao Zhou, I didn't expect you to be so good with that leg left, I'll tell you if Cybertech saved you."
Zhou Ye scolded with a smile:
"Fuck off your uncle, peeing in the orphanage competition is far away from Lao Tzu's pee! It's you, but you have a serious job, not so slippery, I can't imagine you being a policeman when we were playing together......
"You said that the current world is also interesting, people like me who are born with disabilities and those who are old, weak, sick and disabled are just that, many normal people have replaced their good arms and legs with mechanical prosthetics, do you think there is a brain disease?"
Zhao Ji's shadow flashed in Li Lin's mind, and he nodded:
"It's not very smart anyway."
Speaking of this, Zhou Ye's expression darkened, and he said:
"Xiaolian's business...... You got it, right? She'll be glad to hear you're back......"
Li Lin lit a cigarette, threw another one to Zhou Ye, and said:
"I know...... Did she contact you before the accident? ”
Zhou Ye shook his head:
"She's a busy person, you know how busy a company is, and the last time she had a meeting was a year ago, so she occasionally sent a message...... However, Xiaolian has never forgotten about the orphanage, and has set up a fund for our orphanage...... Alas, if I had known, I would have called her to come to the house for a meal and relax......"
Li Lin nodded slightly.
Zhou Ye stood up and said:
"You haven't eaten yet, have you? It's time for dinner, so I'll make you some noodles. ”
Li Lin said curiously:
"Are you really making noodles by hand? How many masters do you have to hire for this? ”
Zhou Ye lowered his voice and said:
"Bullshit handmade, now robots are much better than human hands, whose mouth can eat it? If you don't open a store, you have to be distinctive...... Besides, every time I finish making noodles, I will go over and press the button of the noodle making robot, which is also considered manual. ”
Li Lin gave a thumbs up:
"Fuck you!"
Zhou Ye scratched the back of his head embarrassedly:
"Praise me again."
The noodles were fragrant and spicy, and Li Lin was sweating and sweating when he ate them.
While eating, I saw a few men with mechanical arms and big waists with circular stripes and tigers, staggering to the store, finding a position by the door and sitting down, ordering a few servings of noodles, eating less than two bites, the bearded man of the leader suddenly dropped the bowl and scolded:
"Why is there a cockroach in this side!? Boss, lose money! Lao Tzu wants to pay for mental damage! ”
Several other people immediately raised their mechanical arms to smash the table directly, shouting in their mouths, and most of the customers who were eating ran away in an instant.
Zhou Ye, who was smoking a cigarette on the side, hurriedly ran over and said with a smile:
"Brother, our store is all aseptic back kitchen, how can there be cockroaches?"
The bearded man sneered, took out a cockroach from the soup, and said:
"Boss Zhou, what is this? We hope that our boss will consider the conditions before and agree as soon as possible, otherwise, today it will be a cockroach, tomorrow it will be a fly, and you don't have to open this store...... I've heard, you've borrowed from a loan shark? ”
Zhou Ye frowned, and was about to speak, when he heard Li Lin's lazy voice suddenly sound:
"No, I said what age is it, why are you still playing with the underworld forces?"
Several big men twisted their eyebrows, and they all stood up with a "whew", and the next moment, I saw the man in front of me carelessly on his wrist, and a basin-sized golden police badge phantom flashed in the void, and the big men sat back with a smile on their faces.
"Officer, his face is really not clean, can't we protect the legitimate rights and interests of consumers?" The bearded man in the lead said with a grin.
Li Lin ignored him and asked Zhou Ye:
"Noko, what's the situation? Collecting protection money? ”
Not many years after the establishment of the World Coalition Government, these demons and monsters have been exploiting loopholes in the shadows, but I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen in Midtown.
Zhou Ye smiled bitterly:
"The owner of a catering company took a fancy to my store and wanted to buy it, but I rejected it......"
Li Lin raised his eyebrows and looked at several big men:
"Okay, a small boss has bullied the government!"
The bearded man said fearlessly:
"Officer, you can't talk nonsense, we are all good citizens, and we won't let you talk about things if they are not clean? Anyway, we will come to eat noodles every day in the future, so we can't discriminate against customers, right? ”
Li Lin shook his head:
"The shopkeeper is my godson, which means that the store is also mine, I am the investigator of the Investigation Section, you bully my godson is bullying me, you are bullying the Investigation Division, you are bullying the government, I see that you have an opinion on the world coalition government, saying, are you a violent terrorist of the rebels who want to rebel!?"
With a slight click, an image shot out of the wristband-type police pass, which was the picture of the bearded man secretly throwing cockroaches into it just now.
From the moment they came, Li Lin had already set his sights on him.
Hearing Li Lin's big hat buckled over, several big men were shocked, and their faces turned white.
This guy runs a hat shop, right? With such a deduction, who can stand it?
"You're a bloody squirt! How can we have anything to do with that kind of illegal and criminal thing! The bearded man shouted.
Li Lin nodded solemnly:
"That's what all the criminals I have arrested before have said, please rest assured, my biggest characteristic of this person is that he is fair and just, and he will never wronged a bad person! Just come back to Corey with me and explain the matter. ”
As he spoke, he took out an explosion-proof gun, adjusted it to suppression mode, and instantly shot out five electrode nails with wires and nailed them to the mechanical arms of the five people.
The other end is connected to a high-voltage electricity.
