In recent days, the traffic volume in Xiacheng at night has suddenly increased.
As we enter the weekend and non-working days, the situation becomes even worse.
The magnetic tracks seemed to be covered with glue, and vehicles were stuck on them; all parking platforms were full, making it difficult to get in and out; the entire city seemed to have been lit up by circles of fire dragons, coiling between high-rise buildings, and some even reaching into the sky.
.
Under such circumstances, urban residents who generally regard driving as an extra cost in life will undoubtedly feel anxious.
But if it represents a salary bonus, then it doesn't matter.
Master Jin was taking a nap in the car, with the dinner carton casually placed on the center console. The car was filled with the cheap aroma of heavy salt and oily spicy sauce.
The door at the back slid open, and Zhang Yingying got in. "Hey, we've got another family!"
Master Jin opened his eyelids and looked in the rearview mirror, only to see that Zhang Yingying was not talking to him, but was on an external call.
"Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is inevitable. No matter how transcendent the boss is, some human relationships are still unavoidable. In the past few years, he has been moving around, and it is not like that when he is extraordinary. In the business world, one's own image has always been determined by
Allies, customers, and enemies are calibrated together... The other thing is your side. If your family's authority wasn't so high that it's a bit neurotic, someone would have broken through the door a long time ago."
Master Jin smacked his mouth, his chin beard swayed, and he was thinking about closing his eyes and squinting for a while, but he met Zhang Yingying's eyes through the rearview mirror, and the latter made a gesture, which probably meant "next house."
So the rare luxury business car started to drive, carrying the boss's assistant and the unpacked dinner box, and slowly merged into the stagnant traffic outside.
Zhang Yingying was still chatting in the back row. It could be heard that the person she was chatting with was Ronan, because she soon started complaining about the "Blood Ring Fortress"
"In the past 48 hours, there have been 4 downtimes. What happened in the Yuan District? Can it get better?
"Who are you asking? You are the boss at the top of the pyramid. Anyway, if there is any problem on the earth now, it will be either you or Li Wei. It will be right for you two to be caught.
"And you said that you need to add those practical functional structures, fully mobilize the turbulence power in the abyss, and imagine that there is a huge array of fusion furnaces behind, and you need someone to test it. Where were you when the test was done?
"Just talk about it! It was noon when Xue Lei met you, and then he went back to school in the afternoon; you were talking about 'seismographs' and 'physical and chemical printing plates' with Dean Wan, and you were doing experiments on site, almost...
Blowing up the welfare home...nonsense, of course I know it's an exaggeration, but you've been in Xiacheng for four or five days and you haven't seen a ghost, isn't that an exaggeration?"
She complained, but Zhang Yingying smiled as brightly as a flower.
Okay, if you take the initiative to call me, something will definitely happen, so feel free!"
After listening to a few words, she started to operate the virtual workspace in the back seat, and connected the in-car communication facilities by the way. Ronan's voice rang in the car, "...The main thing is to help me gain popularity on the association's intranet. You guys
Doesn’t Youlan Office have business in this area?”
"You still need to speculate on the articles you published?"
"The information given in it is too much and too complicated. I have deleted some that are too sensitive or that even I am not so clear about. Sister Yueyin also helped delete some, but there are some common sense that must be said. Everyone
Only then will you understand. But if everyone picks up words and concepts, their attention will soon be distracted... Some people may prefer this, but I need everyone to focus on Jin Buhuan."
In the driver's seat, Master Jin took out a few pieces of chewing gum from the side, stuffed them into his mouth, and chewed hard.
"I understand, it just means that you have to be oriented and don't go off topic. But I see on the intranet, people are now writing long articles recalling Jin Buhuan. The popularity has not diminished, right?"
"Oh, that's the person I asked Sister Yueyin to find. He was one of the managers of Maple Pavilion Hotel and spent a fortune on it."
Inside the carriage, Zhang Yingying and Master Jin sneered at the same time, one deliberately and the other silently.
"I've been meaning to ask for a long time. You and Jin Buhuan are not relatives, so why do you put so much effort into it?"
"As soon as you hear it, you will know that you haven't read what I wrote. I have already said it above, mainly because of the special battlefield environment..."
"Oh, I saw it. So you think that the Earth, the Deep Blue World, and the 'three cats' structure of the Maze Maze are all connected by flesh and blood, and that the Deep Blue World does have other passages to the Earth, not just the one in the Mariana Trench
'Star Gate'? And this passage was unfortunately encountered by Jin Buhuan?"
"What kind of 'star gate' is that? Well, the basic meaning is still correct." Ronan's voice was a little casual, "But the 'misfortune' behind it was just a guess by me, it's just a name."
Master Jin continued to chew gum, so that the corners of his heavily bearded mouth became more stretched.
Zhang Yingying refreshed the intranet forum page and followed the trend of the current topic while talking, "So you are not trying to solve the mystery of Jin Buhuan's death. To be honest, your goal is still in the Deep Blue World, in the 'Thirteenth District'. Tsk, you are like this
There are indeed too many concepts released in it. Let me remind you in advance that the news on the internal forum will be released soon.
Transferred through the 'dream world', and then spread among secular people...
"I understand, this is what you want to see, right?"
Ronan answered of course, "Hmm, through the 'Jin Buhuan Incident' and some things before and after, people can have a deeper understanding of the current situation in the world. You can also be mentally prepared for what will happen in the future -
If you don’t know how to swim, you won’t be able to learn to swim for a while, but it’s good to know that there is a possibility of flooding.”
"So gold cannot be exchanged, he is just a tool man."
"If I could, I would say sorry to him."
Zhang Yingying pouted, "Forget it, just because you can do whatever you want in the mist maze, doesn't mean you can do it in hell."
Master Jin used chewing gum to blow an unsuccessful bubble, and then it collapsed.
Next, Zhang Yingying communicated with Ronan for several rounds and took notes to determine the direction of public opinion that would be needed next.
Luxurious commercial vehicles slowly crawled around the city along with the traffic flow.
Zhang Yingying ended her call with Ronan, put aside the holiday activities for the time being, and contacted the public opinion team of the firm to ask them to work on the intranet.
After this wave of business was over, the commercial vehicles finally left the most congested magnetic track line and began to run more smoothly.
At this time, Master Jin in the driver's seat said, "By the way, I'm going to take a sick leave starting tomorrow, so I arranged for Xiao Sun to follow me."
"Ah?" Zhang Yingying was stunned for a moment and asked casually, "Did you tell the boss?"
"Well, she didn't object."
This answer seems quite subtle.
Zhang Yingying is not very familiar with Lao Jin.
This person has only been in the office for a few years. He seems to have been transferred from another company owned by the boss. He is relatively old and not in good health. There are rumors in the office that he may have been injured while performing a task and was unable to return to his original position, so the boss made arrangements
He came here to take care of himself.
For such a senior person, a young person like her, no matter how favored she is, should always have some respect.
Zhang Yingying was not an HR, and there was no need to say more, so she nodded, "I understand, Master Jin, take a good rest for a few days, and have a quick holiday."
After saying that, she was slightly startled again. This person’s surname is also Jin!
Master Jin didn't care about Zhang Yingying's thoughts. Three hours later, he finished his whole day's work, returned him and his car to the office, and then drove his own car home.
He was in a bad state, his thoughts were wandering, and he didn't do much to calm down, so he fell asleep.
But lying on the bed, my mind
A movie started playing in the room. Sora closed his eyes and could only let time pass by. A few more hours passed like this. It was past midnight and he still didn't fall asleep, but his body became increasingly uncomfortable.
So he sat up again and looked at the time
Sunday, September 15th, 2:11 am.
He took off all his clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower. Amidst the sound of running water, he stared at his body, which was no longer strong. The temperature in the room was rising, and his skin color was becoming redder and redder, but
There is an area at the junction of the chest and abdomen that is always a cold silvery white.
Master Jin started to apply the shampoo, but as soon as he made a lather, he suddenly froze there.
The silver-white metal inlay at the junction of the chest and abdomen has become smaller. It is actually embedded deeper into the body, so that the skin is twitching slightly, and there are some blood vessels and tendons around it that are beating constantly. Perhaps this twitching is too intense.
It was so frequent that the silver-white lumpy insert seemed to be twisting, and something was holding it up, swelling and trying to come out.
He had to press against the tile wall to fight against this wave of chaotic and painful body sensations to prevent himself from falling to his knees on the ground.
Fortunately, the situation soon calmed down again.
At this time, he didn't even need to put any water on his body, he was just wet.
Master Jin turned on the shower with trembling hands, and hot water spurted down. He murmured curses in the water, and did not have the energy to take a shower again. After doing it hastily, without even wiping it clean, he fell down.
On the bed, I had lost the strength to move further.
He is so tired, he needs to take a nap...
Master Jin finally fell asleep and had a dream in a trance.
He staggered while walking in a cramped and stuffy passage. A cool breeze seemed to be blowing from the opposite side, and some curtains were fluttering in the wind.
Then there is the sound of regular and cold machinery colliding with rocks. The rhythm is clear, but there are chaotic steps in the middle.
In the chaotic light and shadow, someone fell down in front of him, struggled to get up, and opened his arms to call out to him.
But he looked at it as if he were looking at himself.
The whole body was red from top to bottom, and the joint between the chest and abdomen was a dazzling silvery white.
He was panting heavily, and seemed to have gone up to help him. When the person opposite raised his face, his face was blurred, but dark red firelight lit up in his eyes, and a huge metal slowly appeared in the darkness behind him.
The flashing light on the outline is exactly the same.
There was a sound that shook his eardrums. It was a certain language. He couldn't understand it, but he somehow knew what it meant.
