There was an earthquake in the evening, but nothing was felt.
The dampers kept swinging, adjusting Noah's employee building to a balanced threshold.
Tang Rou sat in front of the dining table extremely haggardly, waiting for Aslan to come back from buying a special meal, with a hint of exhaustion on her paralyzed face.
She said she wanted to see the mermaid, but she couldn't do it for a whole day. Every time she expressed her intention to leave tactfully, the octopus would look so wet that she had to stay.
too difficult.
The sky was frighteningly gloomy at the moment, and not a single star could be seen in the pitch-black sky.
The Noah Base Territory is different from the cities and commercialization of Babel. It has a large number of manufacturing and processing industries, as well as oil fields and energy bases.
For example, nuclear power plants and aerospace have very little light pollution.
Precisely because of its vast territory, sparse population, and large number of areas without government jurisdiction, it has become a breeding ground for gray transactions and evil.
The people at the next table were chatting and mentioned an engineer's girlfriend.
"The two of them are usually very affectionate. He picks his girlfriend up from work every day, but he didn't go there last Saturday, and she disappeared."
"Hey, I just heard that the engineer took a long leave to search for his missing girlfriend personally, but too many people have disappeared recently and they have never been found."
"I heard that her shoes were found outside the observation area. She must have walked in a non-jurisdictional area."
"That's it. The joint police officers will not enter non-jurisdictional areas. Hey... human trafficking has been too rampant recently."
“There are so many people, it’s difficult to manage them, and it’s difficult to manage them.”
Losing the constraints of laws and rules will bring not freedom but disaster.
The violence that triggers bloodshed at the slightest disagreement, the irresistible temptation and depravity, and the infinitely magnified greed and evil in human nature.
Tang Rou lowered her head and poked at her phone and found that the network signal was very poor.
There was a click, and thunder flashed across the sky.
The more than 100-story employee building was illuminated like daylight, and the violent roar seemed to pass by my ears.
Aslan came over with two trays of ice cream, said "ouch" and stretched his head to look outside.
After a while, it started pouring rain.
Several people at the table next to Tang Rou started chatting again, saying that every time the weather was abnormal recently, there would be a "crazy phenomenon".
Especially in coastal areas where it rains.
Tangrou and Aslan looked at each other and quietly listened while eating ice cream.
From what I heard, it seems that strange phenomena have occurred frequently in various places recently. At first, the coalition suppressed all news and posts to prevent the spread of news that would cause panic.
But in the end, too many people went crazy, and there would be bloody attacks every time it rained. For the sake of the safety of the more than 20 billion citizens of the Commonwealth, the "crazy" incident had to be made public.
After modification, it became a kind of "spiritual flu", so that everyone should try to avoid traveling on rainy days.
Tang Rou thought that the so-called "spiritual flu" was probably the slimy anthropomorphic unknown creature she and Aslan saw at the beach before.
I also witnessed a strongly aggressive anthropomorphic creature in the hotel apartment in the Tower of Babel before.
She was eating her ice cream slowly, and suddenly someone tapped her on the shoulder.
Tang Rou turned around, and saw a strange female employee speaking condescendingly, coldly like a machine, "Is this the security officer from the Tower of Babel, Miss Jiang Yuanyuan? Mr. Heng said he wanted to invite you over."
"..."
Heng Lun is indeed a shareholder of some of Noah's biological projects, but he can actually control the employees here?
But……
Tang Rou finished the ice cream in her mouth before speaking, "It's very late now."
The female employee snorted and repeated coldly, "Mr. Heng said he needs you to protect his safety. He is used to it."
"..."
Do mermaids talk so much to humans?
Moreover, where did this female employee’s hostility come from?
Tang Rou followed her all the way into Noah's black tower. It was indeed very luxurious. From the exquisite and tall relief walls and the several-meter-high indoor tower, there was a glimpse of Noah's strong financial resources.
It is worthy of being the biological base of the energy region.
Until they reached the end of the floor, the tall double-door VIP suite, the female employee swiped her card arrogantly and snorted from her nose.
"Some women just don't love themselves. They know that someone else has a fiancée, but they still rush to get married."
Tang Rou gave her a confused look.
What is this man talking to himself?
I don’t know why, but her voice got louder, “Isn’t it just because other people are rich and handsome?”
There was a sound of "di-".
The door opened.
"Mr. Heng!" The woman immediately smiled like a flower.
Then he blushed and waved his hands quickly, saying with a mixture of embarrassment and excitement, "It's okay, it's okay, it's not hard."
"...Mr. Heng is so considerate!"
"It's okay, okay, if you need anything, please feel free to contact me... Yes, you are our shareholder, we are happy to serve you!"
Tang Rou knew that mermaids really don't talk that much to human women.
She watched the woman blushing and talking to herself in the air in front of her, sometimes bending down and bowing, sometimes covering her mouth. Looking past her, she saw the quiet and cold figure sitting on the sofa.
All he could see was a very superior profile face, looking at the... ornamental fish tank on the table with half-lidded eyelashes?
"Okay, okay, then I won't disturb you anymore. Goodbye Mr. Heng!"
The female employee over there finished her one-man show, walked a few steps, squinted up and down at the air, showing contempt, and then let out a contemptuous "Huh!" from her nose.
"..." Quite cute.
The suite is very large, and there are only a few doors in the entire corridor.
Just as Tang Rou was about to go in, the sound of opening the door sounded in the room diagonally opposite.
The person who came out of the room was stunned for a moment, then raised his voice and called out in surprise,
"Don Breeder!"
Tang Rou paused in her steps.
In Noah, everyone thought she was Jiang Yuanyuan, so how could anyone call her by her name?
The camera in the corridor and the red-light sound recording system went dark as soon as he uttered his first word. The mermaid's consciousness had previously intervened and manipulated Noah's high secret, destroying all information about Tang Rou, and...
Replace all on the hub network.
There is no reason why someone could escape the interference of the mermaid's will and recognize her.
Tang Rou turned around.
A young man who looked familiar but couldn't remember him was walking towards her. At first he was a little afraid to recognize him, but then his pace became faster and faster, and he walked in front of her in a few steps.
The fair and handsome man's face was a little red, and he said shyly,
"Mr. Tang, do you remember me? My name is Abel. We had... a barbecue and a sorority party together before. Do you have any impressions?"
Tang Rou snorted, and then said, "That time you fell into a hallucination?"
Abel's eyes lit up and he nodded hastily, "Yes, it was that time!"
I was secretly happy that this Miss Tang still had an impression of me!
Tang Rou looked towards the sofa in the suite, and the mermaid turned her head back at some point. Her face was covered with a silver eye mask, only revealing a pair of beautiful thin red lips.
Abel suddenly said in a hesitant and trembling voice: "He, he is...!!"
Tang Rou narrowed her eyes sensitively, "Do you know him?"
Abel's eyes dodge, he lowers his head and shakes his head quickly, "Remember, I can't remember clearly."
Very suspicious.
Abel couldn't help but take another glance, his face turned pale.
The man on the sofa, even if his eyes were covered, still gave him a fear of being watched.
His figure, movements, and the glass fish tank on the table in front of him gave Abel a nightmare for a long time after returning from that night at the barbecue restaurant, and it was deeply engraved in his soul.
Cold white skin, long blond hair, pointed translucent elf-like ears...
This is the scary "person" in the dream!
He still remembered that day when the blond beauty looked at the glass jar that looked like a sand table on the street. The world at the bottom of the jar was the world they escaped from in their dreams.
