Chapter 55: Where's the Killer?
Xiao Yao asked if he could change the past, Miao Yu replied: "There are very few people who can go against time, those people are basically absorbed by the arbitration tribunal, and the responsibility of the arbitration tribunal is to correct deviations, they can tolerate people returning to the past, but they can't tolerate them changing the past, and the people who return to the past are just changing the fritters for breakfast with buns, but it is difficult to change the big events of birth, old age, sickness and death." ”
Xiao Yao thought for a while and asked, "I've only been in this world for two days, if I'm a time walker, can I go back five days ago?" ”
Miao Yu smiled: "Of course you can, but as soon as you go back, you will be targeted by the arbitration tribunal, and you may not be able to do anything, so you can only obediently return to the original timeline." ”
"Are the people of the arbitral tribunal strong?" Xiao Yao asked.
"Of course, the weakest ones are stronger than you." Miao Yu was not afraid of hitting Xiao Yao at all.
Xiao Yao was discouraged, changed the subject, and asked, "Is there any news of Qin Shuangshuang?" ”
Miao Yu said: "Not yet, the area of this world city is less than 10%, there are even fewer places with cameras, I can't monitor the vast wasteland at all, if she deliberately avoids the camera and lives in the wasteland for a long time, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to see her." ”
"Let me know as soon as I hear from her." Xiao Yao said.
"How do I become a Time Walker?" Xiao Yao asked the question in his heart.
Miao Yu explained: "Time Walker is like a superpower, maybe one day you wake up in the morning and find that there are several light gates in front of you, and behind each door is a new life. ”
"Tell me about the bookstore!" Xiao Yao was helpless, it seemed that if he wanted to become a time walker, he could only resign himself to fate.
Miao Yu didn't reply for a while.
"What's wrong? Can't even you find out? Xiao Yao stimulated Miao Yu.
Miao Yu guessed: "The bookstore is a very old force, selling books is their most superficial business, and selling intelligence is their biggest source of income. ”
"Does the arbitral tribunal care?" Xiao Yao asked in surprise.
"The arbitral tribunal only cares about the anti-time business, and does not care about anything else." Miao Yu said.
"Can you get into their intelligence system?" In the past, Miao Yu always showed off which firewall she broke through and which database she entered, but at this time, Miao Yu seemed to be avoiding this question.
"The bookstore also has an artificial intelligence, which is very similar to me, their data fortress is very strong, and I can't get in." Miao Yu said truthfully.
"Artificial intelligence? Have you ever fought with him? Xiao Yao was a little surprised.
"We're fighting, I'm parsing his underlying code, and it won't be long before he disarms and surrenders." Miao Yu said confidently.
"Don't assimilate." Xiao Yao reminded.
"How is that possible?" Miao Yu disappeared after speaking, he should find that artificial intelligence to fight!
Xiao Yao recognized the direction, and simply asked someone to find the location of the bookstore, in this world, you can not know where there is a restaurant, you can't not know where there is a bookstore. Your kitten can't be found, you don't need to send a search notice, just find a bookstore.
Miao Yu's ability to obtain information relied too much on electronic products, so he could only try his luck with the bookstore to see if he could find clues about Qin Shuangshuang.
The first floor of the bookstore is a real bookstore, where many people read and choose books.
The second floor is one cubicle after another, each compartment has a computer, input your needs into the computer, the artificial intelligence will automatically give a quotation, if you agree with the offer, you can pay online, the artificial intelligence will generate a contract for you, pay the money, sign the contract and you can wait for the news.
Xiao Yao found a cubicle, typed someone on the computer, and he typed his father's photo and name into it.
Soon, a mechanically synthesized female voice said with a slight coldness, "I have no information about him. "It's obviously artificial intelligence that's talking.
"What do you mean?" Xiao Yao asked.
"My authority is not high enough for civilian inquiries to find."
Xiao Yao had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and hurriedly asked: "That is to say, you have his information in your database, but you don't have enough permissions, if the permissions are high enough, you can find it, right?" ”
"Yes."
Xiao Yao took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and looked for information about his father, just start from the bookstore! If the civilian inquiries are not enough, then find them at the top of the hierarchy.
He entered Qin Shuangshuang's photo and name into it again, and quietly waited for the artificial intelligence to reply.
"This person has bought out the information and can't look it up." The AI replies with a crisp female voice.
"What do you mean?" Xiao Yao was a little stunned.
The AI patiently explained: "She paid a sum of money and chose to hide her information, and no one could find out everything about her from us." ”
Why is she hiding her message? Is it because the enemy is too strong, there are too many enemies? Xiao Yao couldn't help but worry.
Xiao Yao's eyes rolled and asked, "If I pay more than she buys out, can I suspend her buyout?" ”
"Nope." The AI replied without hesitation.
"When did her buyout contract start?" Xiao Yao asked again, in his opinion, if he could get this information, then he would be able to roughly know the time when Qin Shuangshuang entered the Mysterious Land.
"No comment."
Xiao Yao's heart is a little relieved, which means that if he can't find it, then others can't find it either.
"Can I send her a message?" Xiao Yao asked again.
"Yes."
"I'm Xiao Yao, I'm here, come to see me." Xiao Yao typed a line.
"10,000 Alliance Coins." The AI quickly replied.
"Why don't you go and grab it." Xiao Yao was stunned, and only sent a message, asking him for 10,000 yuan.
"If you pay the money, you can sign the contract." Artificial intelligence is not annoyed either.
Fortunately, the alliance currency from the outside world can also circulate here, otherwise Xiao Yao would really be unable to move an inch.
As soon as Xiao Yao left the bookstore, Tang Huan walked into the compartment just now.
"What did he look up?" Tang Xiao asked.
"Store Manager Tang, he checked the information of his father and Qin Shuangshuang."
"Didn't give it to him, did you?" Tang Xiao asked again.
"Of course not, but he sent a message to Qin Shuangshuang." After the artificial intelligence finished speaking, a line of words suddenly appeared in the air, which was "I am Xiao Yao, I am here, come to see me".
The so-called information security is just for outsiders.
Tang Xiao nodded and said, "It's gone!" ”
"Okay."
Tang Xiao returned to his store manager's office, put his feet on the desk, tapped on the chair handle, and kept thinking about something.
After a long time, she seemed to have finally made a decision, and said to herself: "Many people say that you are an abandoned son of the Xiao family, I will recruit you to the bookstore to see if you can be used by my brother." ”
Xiao Yao just walked out of the bookstore, and received a recruitment message on his mobile phone: The bookstore is now recruiting a librarian, if you are interested, you can go to the personnel department of the bookstore for an interview with this information.
The message is very simple, as if it was tailor-made for Xiao Yao: when he first came to this world and had no place to stay, the bookstore gave him a job; He wanted to find information about his father and Qin Shuangshuang, and the bookstore was the intelligence center of this mysterious place.
He didn't seem to have a reason to refuse.
He turned around and walked into the bookstore again, went straight to the personnel department on the first floor, and took out a text message on his mobile phone to show the personnel director.
The head of personnel is a man in his thirties, wearing a suit and tie, and he looks very capable.
The personnel director just looked at the source of the information, didn't ask anything, and directly gave Xiao Yao a training manual, asking him to go back to study first, and then he could take up his post after passing the exam.
At the same time, he also gave Xiao Yao a key to a single dormitory.
Xiao Yao walked into the dormitory in a daze, and didn't understand what the situation was for a while.
He simply flipped through the training manual, and found that there was also a test paper in the middle, and there were answers on it, thinking that this was the exam that the personnel director said!
"It can't be a trap! How could it be so easy? Xiao Yao laughed and laughed to himself.
But think about it and stop, how could a dignified bookstore organization set a trap for him to play a game, he may be a character in the outside world, and in this mysterious place, he is really worthless. If you come here, you will be safe!
In the personnel department, a handsome little girl asked the personnel director softly: "Who was that guy just now?" Why did the supervisor record without asking anything? ”
"The person recruited by the store manager himself, you still don't have to ask." The Director shushed and whispered.
"It's good to have a relationship, we have interviewed several rounds when we are hired, and we have to do what assessments we have to do after we finish, and how many heroes and heroes have fallen on the way to the assessment." The little girl grinned.
The supervisor scratched the tip of the little girl's nose and scolded, "Okay, go to work." ”
The little girl shrugged her nose and walked back to her station with a disgruntled expression.
Xiao Yao lay tired on his single bed, and soon fell asleep.
In the dream, he suddenly appeared in an elevator, he was the only one in the elevator, and the floor had been pressed to the 11th floor, which was the highest floor.
He didn't know where the killer would suddenly appear, but it must be the most unsafe in this closed elevator.
He quickly pressed down on every floor, and no matter where the elevator stopped, he had to leave the elevator immediately.
The elevator stopped on the 7th floor, and he dodged out of the elevator.
On the opposite side of the elevator is the staircase, a middle-aged man about 1.7 meters tall combs his big back and leans on the door frame and smokes; A girl with a ponytail walked past him with a garbage bag, and subconsciously fanned the tip of her nose with her right hand, glaring at her back imperceptibly.
After throwing out the garbage, the girl trotted away to avoid an extra puff of secondhand smoke.
In the hallway, a man in a suit was engrossed in the phone porridge, his eyes were full of softness, and a girl in a white dress ran past him with a stack of papers.
Xiao Yao frowned, these people don't look like killers, and it seems that killers won't kill people in such an office building.
In the past, killers appeared in his dreams, and today should be no exception.
Thinking like this, Xiao Yao tried to judge the clues from the spider silk tracks around him.
There is a personnel chart on the wall, with Liu Bo's name written on the top chairman's position, and his photo remaining.
"Is it really Liu Bo?" Xiao Yao stared at the photo and looked at it, and finally determined that it was Liu Bo.
