120 A ruthless and unrighteous scumbag
Huo Wen'an sat by the window, seeing the old man scolding Huo Wuxing, and a slight smile on his lips.
A sudden ringtone of the mobile phone rang suddenly, and he glanced in the direction of the coffee table, and saw the word 'little star' in sharp eyes. "It's the young lady's call."
Zheng Lie walked over quickly, picked up the phone, and respectfully handed it to Huo Wen'an. In Huo Wen'an's territory, Zheng Lie and his subordinates directly blatantly accused Xu Xingguang of calling the young lady.
Because they found that whenever they mentioned the young lady, it was a little more approachable to take the helm.
They were at the helm of the Yama Hall with half a foot, and only the young lady could make him pick up his interest in returning to the human world.
Huo Wen'an answered the phone, and as soon as he shouted Xingguang, he heard Xu Xingguang say, "You seem to be in a good mood." Even through the mobile phone, Xu Xingguang could easily sense Huo Wen'an's mood.
Huo Wen'an is a person who pays great attention to hiding his inner emotions, and can easily be read by Xu Xingguang, not because Xu Xingguang has the ability to read minds, but because he gave Xu Xingguang the privilege to understand his heart.
Seeing that Xu Xingguang guessed his mood, the corners of Huo Wen'an's lips curved a little deeper.
"It's fine." Huo Wenan said: "I just ran away from the old man." β
"Looks like you're on good terms with your grandfather."
Then when she prepares the greeting gift, she should also be more careful.
"How's it going? Didn't you say that you were going to report to the institute today? Huo Wen'an knew that Xu Xingguang was leading the Xia Guo Research Institute to study corpse centipedes.
But it is unclear what the name of the institute she leads is or where it is located.
Xu Xingguang responded: "I have already reported it, and I have also met with my colleagues." β
Hearing this, Huo Wen'an was like an old father whose daughter went to work on the first day of the company, and asked her in a babbling manner: "What is the personality of my colleagues?" Can you get along happily? Did you prepare a greeting for them as I said? β
Xu Xingguang stared at the fragrant herbal powder on her desk and told Huo Wen'an: "Of course I have prepared a meeting gift, it's not cheap, they definitely like it." β
"That's good."
If Xu Xingguang didn't have something serious, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to call Huo Wen'an, but he expected that she had something important to ask when she called, so Huo Wen'an asked Xu Xingguang: "Call me at this time, are you in any trouble at work?" β
Xu Xingguang asked Huo Wenan a question that had nothing to do with the content of his work, "Ah drunk, you are a senior movie fan, I have a question I want to ask you." β
Xu Xingguang even used the word 'ask for advice', Huo Wen'an subconsciously sat upright and listened, "You speak." β
"What comes to mind the first moment you hear the name Christopher?"
βChristopherοΌβ Huo Wen'an pondered for a while, and then said: "This name has appeared in many movies, but what can leave a deep impact on movie fans must be the characters in movie masterpieces." β
"Just like when we mention the character of Hannibal, the first thing that comes to mind is Hannibal the ogre, and when I hear you mention Christopher, the first thing that comes to mind is the movie 'the-TRUMAN-Show.'"
βThe-TRUMAN-ShowοΌβ Truman's world?
Although Xu Xingguang is not a veteran movie fan, she has also watched this movie, but because her soul has traveled through multiple worlds, her memory of the real world is very vague.
She couldn't remember what was in it, but she could still remember a rough outline of the story.
As screenwriters and authors, their impression of the framework of the story is always deep.
Xu Xingguang asked puzzledly, "Is there a person named Christopher in "The-TRUMAN-Show"? β
"Of course." Huo Wenan reminded Xu Xingguang: "Do you remember the old man who adopted Truman?" It's the old man who created Seahaven Island, who directed the whole reality show. β
Xu Xingguang didn't remember it at all.
Seeing that Xu Xingguang was silent, Huo Wenan guessed that Xu Xingguang didn't know much about this movie.
Huo Wenan patiently introduced Xu Xingguang's identity as the old man and his influence on the actor.
In the end, Huo Wenan said: "[The outside world is as false as the world I gave you, with the same lies and the same fraud. But in my world, you don't have to be afraid of anything. γβ
"When the male protagonist found out that the world he was in was fake and a reality show, Christopher said the previous sentence to the male protagonist."
"You just need to know that Christopher is the director of the whole reality show, and he is the god of the actor Truman."
"I see." Xu Xingguang said: "I will take the time to watch the movie carefully tonight. β
Huo Wen'an asked curiously, "Why did you suddenly ask me about this?" β
"If you want to solve the confusion in my heart, this matter is related to the content of my work, so I can't tell you more." Xu Xingguang is a principled person, and it is a matter of Xia Guo's secrets, even if it is Huo Wenan, she will not reveal it to the other party.
Huo Wenan admired Xu Xingguang's businesslike attitude very much.
Thinking like a tide, like a breeze, rushed to Huo Wen'an, Huo Wen'an blurted out: "When will you come to see me?" β
These words jumped too fast, but Xu Xingguang has always favored Huo Wen'an, she said: "Within this month." β
The month is over with twenty days left.
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
"Well, it's time to go to work." Xu Xingguang directly put the phone away without the slightest hesitation.
Huo Wen'an stared at the hung up phone, frowned, pouted and scolded: "Ruthless and unrighteous scumbag." β
Such a scumbag can't be let out to harm others.
It is enough to plague him alone.
Putting down the phone, Xu Xingguang walked to the shredder, she scooped up the pile of residues inside, and let them slip through her fingers.
"Christopher, the God who controls Truman's fate."
She jerked out her right hand, letting go of all the scraps of paper. "Could it be that the master of the Extinction Gate wants to create a Seahaven Island under his control?"
Hiding this guess in his heart, Xu Xingguang picked up the lure vanilla box on the desk, turned on the communicator as he walked out, and notified all the members of the institute to go to the office for a meeting.
Before Xu Xingguang came, the conference room was all on hold, and no one had ever entered it.
After receiving the news, everyone stopped what they were doing and hurried to the conference room.
When they arrived, Xu Xingguang was already waiting inside.
Notice that on the table in front of everyone's seat, there is a small box of aromatherapy. Jin Yaoyang was a little moved, he pulled out his chair, and as soon as he sat down, he reached out and picked up the fragrance and smelled it.
"It smells so good!"
Jin Yaoyang looked at Xu Xingguang with a smile, and said, "Team Xu, what is this?" Aromatherapy? β
Researcher No. 6 Zhou Chi, a delicate man who enjoys life, picked up the aromatherapy and sniffed it carefully, and said thoughtfully: "This aromatherapy smell, this is the first time I have encountered it, and the smell is really good." β
Zhou Chi asked Xu Xingguang: "Team Xu, this shouldn't be the meeting gift you brought us, right?" β
Without waiting for Xu Xingguang to respond, Yu Ke said, "Hey, Team Xu is so polite, we are all embarrassed." When we joined the company, we didn't have the habit of giving greeting gifts. β
Yu Ke winked at the vice captain Hua Junqiao, "Vice team, why don't we go out for a hot pot tonight, even if it is a gift to each other?" β
Hua Junqiao was asked, and subconsciously looked at Xu Xingguang.
Their funding is all for research. This is a hot pot, and you can't touch the funds.
Hua Junqiao said: "Then I invite everyone to eat hot pot tonight?" β
"Want to eat hot pot?" Xu Xingguang smiled generously, "Okay, I'll invite everyone to eat hot pot tonight." She looked at Hua Junqiao and said without a beak: "I am the captain, and I should be invited." β
Hua Junqiao felt that it was not appropriate, "Team Xu, you have prepared a meeting gift for us, and then let you please eat hot pot, it is too expensive." β
"This is indeed my gift to you, but" Xu Xingguang stretched out his index finger and nodded Jin Yaoyang in the air, reminding him: "Be careful, don't let it wake up the corpse centipede in your body." β
Hearing this, Jin Yaoyang hurriedly put down the diffuser box, while the other members all showed stunned expressions.
Wang Zefa pointed to the small box of aromatherapy in front of him and asked Xu Xingguang in disbelief: "Team Xu, you mean that this thing can awaken the corpse centipede lurking in the body of the parasite?" β
Everyone else also looked at Xu Xingguang.
"This is filled with an inducer that I have specially configured, and among them is a medicinal powder called lure vanilla, which is the most favorite nutrient for corpse centipedes. No corpse centipede can resist the temptation of inducers. β
With a cold smile, Xu Xingguang said: "Corpse centipedes are naturally fond of killing and destroying, so they have extremely strong destructive power. But at the same time, they also have a natural penchant for seducting vanilla. β
"Since it's nature, you can't resist. No matter how powerful biological weapons are, they are just artificially created weapons, not high-IQ creatures. β
Knowing that the gadget in front of them, which seemed to be scented, could actually awaken the corpse centipede lurking in the parasite's body, all the researchers were incredulous.
When they looked at Xu Xingguang's expression, they looked even more admiring and worshipping.
Even Wang Zefa, the eldest, stared at Xu Xingguang with emotion in his eyes.
Xia Guo can get Xu Xingguang, it's really a great luck!
Looking at the aromatherapy box in front of everyone, Xu Xingguang told them: "In the near future, our institute will cooperate with the Health Bureau to hold a public welfare national citizen physical examination in Xia Kingdom. At that time, all citizens will be called on to participate so that they can all smell the tempting herbs up close. β
"It is important to note that after the parasite smells the lure vanilla, they do not have obvious reaction characteristics, but their blood test data will be abnormal. Your task is to review the blood medical data of all citizens in the shortest possible time. β
Speaking of this, Xu Xingguang looked at Researcher No. 7 Yu Ke, "Yu Ke, you are a computer technical talent in our group, I need you to make a blood data screening network, which can intelligently screen out all those with abnormal blood physical examinations, and must be foolproof." β
Staring at Yu Ke's squinting eyes, which seemed to never wake up, Xu Xingguang told him with a serious expression: "Any parasite being let go can lead to the destruction of a city, Yu Ke, you understand the importance of your work, right?" β
Yu Ke suddenly felt Alexander.
But Yu Ke is precisely the kind of person who is more pressured, the stronger the motivation.
He stood up suddenly, saluted Xu Xingguang, and said loudly: "Please let the captain go, I will definitely treat my work seriously!" β
Nodding, Xu Xingguang asked him, "How many days does it take?" β
Yu Ke said: "Five days." Actually, it's pretty fast to write a program, but I need to test it again and again to make sure it's safe before I can deliver it to everyone. β
"Okay."
"Everyone else goes out, Jin Yaoyang stays."
Jin Yaoyang, who was left by name, had a stiff expression.
He subconsciously straightened his back, and waited for Hua Junqiao and them to leave the office, then he raised his head nervously and looked at Xu Xingguang. "Team Xu, did I do something wrong?"
He had a sense of helplessness when he did something wrong in elementary school and was left by the head teacher to lecture.
"Don't be nervous, let's talk." Xu Xingguang said.
'Chatting' generally doesn't end well, and almost every employee is either forced to leave or adjusted to a position after being 'chatted'.
Jin Yaoyang was even more nervous.
He hid his hands under the table, kept clasping his fingers, and waited for a long time before he heard Xu Xingguang say, "You are the youngest in the group." β
Jin Yaoyang suddenly became a little angry, he nodded proudly, and admitted, "Yes, I am 32 years old, and I am the youngest in the entire research institute except for Team Xu. β
"They all call me Little Kim."
Little gold, little gold, young and golden.
Xu Xingguang smiled sullenly, and she said, "But your academic qualifications and professional abilities are also the worst among them." β
Hearing this, Jin Yaoyang was like a deflated ball, and he instantly withered.
He rolled his eyes, and defended without confidence: "I'm young, young and inexperienced, when I'm a few years older, I'll be as powerful as my predecessors." β
"But as you get older, it's not just your experience, you may also have a beer belly." Xu Xingguang stared at Jin Yaoyang's slightly bulging belly, and said with a smile: "I look at your belly, it can't be bigger." β
Jin Yaoyang was really injured by Xu Xingguang, he lowered his head like a quail, and his voice was buzzing: "Team Xu, it's not polite to attack appearance." β
"Okay, I'm not going to tease you." Xu Xingguang's face changed in a second, and he became a strict Captain Xu again. "You should know that the reason why you were able to enter the 23rd Secret Research Institute is because of your special physique."
Jin Yaoyang was stunned, he pretended to be calm, and bluffed Xu Xingguang: "My physique? What's so special about my physique? β
Xu Xingguang said bluntly: "You are a virus immune body. β
Jin Yaoyang's eyes widened, and he subconsciously looked back at the door.
After confirming that no one else was there, Jin Yaoyang got up and sat down next to Xu Xingguang, and asked Xu Xingguang like a thief: "Team Xu, do you even know this?" β
Xu Xingguang stretched out his index finger and pressed it against Jin Yaoyang's forehead, pushing him away a little. "You ate scallion pancakes at noon?"
Jin Yaoyang was embarrassed for a moment, and quickly retreated two meters away.
Staring at Jin Yaoyang's slightly fat body, Xu Xingguang said straight to the point: "You are personally selected by me from a list of tens of thousands of candidates, of course I know your situation." β
Hearing this, Jin Yaoyang realized that Xu Xingguang was his Bole. "It turned out that Team Xu chose me."
Jin Yaoyang himself knows that his strength is not high or low, and he is not qualified to stay in Research Institute No. 23 with real medical bigwigs like Wang Zefa and them.
Why he was able to enter the No. 23 Research Institute has always been a mystery that Jin Yaoyang can't figure out.
It wasn't until this moment that he figured out the truth.
"You are a virus immunizer, even a corpse centipede can't enter your body to latent growth, I picked you because I fancy the particularity of your physique. I have a hard task for you to do. β
To put it bluntly, Jin Yaoyang is a bug in the virus world.
Being reused by Xu Xingguang, Jin Yaoyang felt honored, and he said loudly: "Team Xu, no matter what you do, the sword mountain and the sea of fire, if you give the order, I will do it, it is incumbent!" β
"The slogan is loud." Xu Xingguang signaled him not to get excited, and when Jin Yaoyang regained his composure, Xu Xingguang said straightforwardly: "This national screening is huge, and it will definitely attract the attention of the mastermind behind the corpse centipede." β
"In order to facilitate the control of corpse centipedes, the main messenger will set a unique code name for each corpse centipede at the beginning of its birth. Once the mastermind behind us perceives our intentions, it is inevitable that they will not wake up the corpse centipedes in advance and manipulate them to find another parasite. Therefore, I have decided to entrust you with the task of isolating parasites. β
"It's just you, and there's no danger of being parasitized by corpse centipedes."
Jin Yaoyang listened with enthusiasm. "Team Xu, thank you for your promotion and trust, Jin Yaoyang will definitely be able to complete this task!"
He laughed and laughed, "My grandmother has high hopes for me, and she hopes that I can benefit the people and accumulate good deeds. I'm finally able to make my own use. β
Affected by Jin Yaoyang's mood, Xu Xingguang's mood was also a lot more excited, she said: "After you successfully complete the task, you can share your joy with your grandmother." β
"That's for sure!"
*
Next, Xu Xingguang, accompanied by Jin Yunhai, went to visit the Minister of Health.
The Minister of Health has already received a document from the president's office, and he said that he will fully cooperate with Xu Xingguang and his institute.
But he didn't know the core of Xu Xingguang's research institute, only that a new type of virus had emerged in the world, which was very harmful, and it was necessary to screen out the source of the virus in advance and solve the security crisis as soon as possible.
With the cooperation of the health department, Xia Guo launched a nationwide citizen health screening.
Ordinary people don't know that there is an unknown secret behind this health screening, and even those people in big families don't know anything about it.
On this day, it is the family dinner of the Xiahou family once a month.
Xiahou Shang and his wife Zhang Zhiyi returned to Huoling Peak, first went to his parents' courtyard to sit for a while, waited for his younger brother Xiahou Jin to come back, and then went to the family banquet hall for dinner.
Xiahou Jin recently talked about a good-looking stunner female star, and the conversation was hot, in order to make her girlfriend happy, she specially took her to fly abroad for a big shopping trip.
As soon as he arrived at the airport, he hurried back to Hump Peak.
Xia Houjin didn't dare to miss the family reunion day again.
Seeing Xiahou Jin returning with a rouge scent, Zhang Yuyao slapped her nose in disgust and complained about Xiahou Jin: "You fell into the garden?" The fragrance of the whole body. β
Xiahou Shang betrayed his brother mercilessly, he said: "He recently talked about a female star in the entertainment industry. β
"Got another girlfriend?" Zhang Yuyao was angry, "Can you learn from your brother?" Or don't talk about it, if you want to talk about it, talk about a stable and reliable object? Girlfriend changed so quickly, be careful to get sick! β
"Mom, you're still not my own mother!" Xiahou Jin was very angry by Zhang Yuyao's words.
Zhang Zhiyi listened silently on the side and did not participate.
Although Xiahou Jin is a playboy, he never engages in forcible occupation, and he plays with those women on the spot. exchanging money for beauty is all your willingness, and she doesn't evaluate it.
Zhang Zhiyi didn't open his mouth, it didn't mean that she could avoid Zhang Yuyao's idea.
Zhang Yuyao looked at Zhang Zhiyi and brought up the old topic again: "You and the eldest are not young, this marriage has been married for several years, and the grandchildren of the families who married you in the same year are all in kindergarten, when do you two plan to have children?" β
Zhang Zhiyi is a translator, and he has been very ambitious in recent years, and he really doesn't want children.
Xiahou Shang has just secured the identity of the city lord of Yujiang City, and he still wants to fight for the position of the lord of the Eastern Continent, and he does not want children for the time being.
Zhang Yuyao couldn't help her son, so she turned the fire on Zhang Zhiyi.
The persimmons are all pinched softly, and Zhang Yuyao can only pinch Zhang Zhiyi.
Xiahou Jin saw that his mother was angry at his eldest brother and sister-in-law, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and did not forget to cast a 'your turn to be scolded' at his eldest brother.
Xiahou Shang squeezed Zhang Zhiyi's hand and subconsciously explained to his mother: "Mom, Zhiyi and I have wanted to run for the future first in the past few years, and then think about the child's affairs when the future is stable." β
"Shut up!" Zhang Yuyao raised her voice and yelled at Xiahou Shang: "You said clearly, are you not good, so you haven't moved?" β
Xiahou Shang: "."
Very good, in ordinary families, if the son and daughter-in-law do not have children for many years after marriage, the mother-in-law will question the daughter-in-law's incompetence.
Their family is different.
Xiahou Shang was ashamed and annoyed, and it was difficult to refute, but he couldn't admit it.
Fortunately, the servant came to spread the word that everyone had arrived, and that the old lady and the old gentleman were ready to go to the banquet hall.
Zhang Yuyao put away her anger at this time, got up and said to the three unconscious children: "I will spare you today, your grandmother has been in better health recently, pay attention to me when I eat later, don't do wrong things and say wrong things, make her unhappy!" β
Luo Xiangyue's influence on the Xiahou family is self-evident, Zhang Yuyao and her husband are looking forward to their mother's life for a few more years, and it is best to survive until after the general election of the continent lord.
Those who can participate in the family banquet are all descendants of the Xiahou family, as well as collateral clansmen who have made great contributions to the Xiahou family. But they were all together, and there were more than a hundred people.
The Xiahou family as a whole is a Hui style building, but the family banquet hall building is a luxurious building built later. In the middle of the large banquet hall is a large round table that can accommodate up to 120 people.
Everyone sat together, communicating in a measured manner, and it seemed lively and not noisy.
Xiahou Huaigui pushed his mother in a wheelchair and accompanied his father to enter the venue last.
Seeing the old lady and the old lady enter the arena, everyone stood up, "The head of the house, the lady, the little son." β
"Sit down."
After Xiahou Xiong and his wife Luo Xiangyue sat down, Xiahou Huaigui sat down.
After the two old men entered, the atmosphere in the banquet hall became much more restrained and quiet.
The maid began to cloth the vegetables, and when the vegetables were finished, Luo Xiangyue suddenly mentioned an irrelevant trivial matter: "I heard that the Health Bureau is going to hold a national public welfare physical examination." β
"Yes." The eldest son, Xiahou Huaicai, asked Luo Xiangyue: "Mom, have you heard about this too?" β
Nodding, Luo Xiangyue said, "Since it's national, then everyone should go." β
Hearing this, many people showed surprised expressions.
A man in his fifties said disappreciatively, "Do you want to use it?" We have a family hospital, and we will go for a regular physical examination every year, so there is no need to participate in the physical examination activities organized by the Health Bureau. β
Many of them don't plan to go.
Xiahou's family has their own investment in the hospital, and anyone who is not feeling well usually does not need to go to a public hospital, just go to their own hospital for examination.
The inspection equipment of the health bureau is not necessarily as advanced as that of their hospitals.
Hearing this, someone was about to nod his head in agreement with the open-mouthed man, but he noticed that the old lady raised her eyebrows lightly and looked at the open-mouthed person with sharp eyes.
His name is Xiahou Zhuo, and he is Xiahou Xiong's nephew.
Xiahou Zhuo, who was stared at silently by the old lady, had two folds on his face, and he actually felt that his legs were weak. "Auntie, did I say the wrong thing?"
The banquet hall was incredibly quiet, and everyone could see that the old lady was angry.
Luo Xiangyue asked Xiahou Zhuo: "Xiahou Zhuo, do you understand what these three words national represent?" β
Xiahou Zhuo vaguely guessed what he had done wrong.
Luo Xiangyue said in a cold voice: "National, it means that within the territory of the Xia Kingdom, all citizens who are under the leadership of the Xia Kingdom Alliance Government have no particularity. Whether it's me, or someone else. β
Luo Xiangyue frowned and asked Xiahou Zhuo: "Who gave you the illusion that as a member of the Xiahou family, you can have the privilege of not going to participate in the physical examination?" β
Xiahou Zhuo's face was pale.
The rest of the tribesmen were tense and didn't dare to breathe heavily.
When Luo Xiangyue was powerful, Xia Houxiong generally chose to pretend to be transparent. He also felt that these people in the family were a little confused about their identities, and they should be beaten well.
