Tomorrow is the winter solstice, which is the longest night of the year. The weather in Xia City has not been very good for some time. At around five o'clock in the evening, the sky becomes obviously dark. In the depths of the jungle on the north coast, there are even shadows.
, coupled with the sharp or rough calls of resident birds, those who are a little brave may not have the courage to walk on the forest trails.
However, inside the gear building in the jungle, the public activity area on the second underground floor is brightly lit. Due to the light, the side next to the sandbank waterway has attracted some lake bottom fish and shrimps, etc., against the glass.
The curtain wall is full of collisions. As for whether it is interesting or weird, it depends on everyone's aesthetic taste.
None of the people staying here paid attention to this scene. They sat around the bar, laughing and joking, and the atmosphere was lively.
"Aha, you deserve it!"
Xue Lei drank some wine. Because he was under the legal drinking age and lacked experience in this area, he could not help but get a little drunk. Of course, the more important thing was that the difficulties of the winter solstice battle disappeared silently, and he had a lot of thoughts in his heart.
His bold and cheerful energy came back to him, and his voice became louder and louder:
"This is what happens when you try to eat alone.
"Not to mention what happened over there, I suffered the dividends inside, brother!" The person pulling Xue Lei's shoulder was Director Xie Junping, the CMO of Tianjing Biological Research and Development Company, who was also upset.
Xue Lei's face was already burned red by the alcohol, but this marketing director, who had been in office for a month, had a face full of red light, which could light up almost half of the bar: "You haven't seen the energy in the past two days.
plate, there was a launch accident, it went straight up and down without any bends! To make a profit at this time is extreme operation, intelligence, decision-making, ability and luck. In other words, since and
After you two get to know each other, my luck will skyrocket!"
"It's the people from the General Association who want to die... They actually want to hide this kind of thing, and they haven't hidden it yet."
Don't hesitate.
Not many people were clear about the sudden turmoil on the other side of the Pacific Ocean. The information obtained by the Xia City Branch only showed that Tancheng's General Association of Escapists, together with the Justice Order, had somehow discovered a world similar to the one in the Deep Blue World.
It is said that the two parties were originally preparing to secretly collaborate on the development of the plane, but during the negotiation process, such a major secret matter was inexplicably leaked.
Such a slap in the face has left both the Association of Ability Users and the Justice Order in a state of embarrassment. In the past two days, they not only had to deal with inquiries from various forces, but they also inevitably questioned each other's ability to keep secrets and even their most fundamental attitude. It is said that after the leak,
High-level talks between the two sides have broken down on several occasions, and now the negotiations have been put on hold indefinitely, but the impact has been difficult to deal with.
At first, people from all parties were still a little confused and couldn't figure out whether it was a fact or a rumor. Later, more detailed information continued to be released, and even the extremely critical and extremely fatal "the parties did not have the exact coordinates" came out
detailed information.
At this time, all parties finally came to their senses: How dare you two scratch each other's faces until they were bloody before you even figured out the situation!
The joke will be in vain if you don’t see it, and the advantage will not be taken advantage of. Nowadays, large retail investors are entering the market one after another. Regardless of whether they can catch fish or not, the water will be muddied first. The turbulence of the global stock market is just one aspect of it.
Outside capital like Xie Junping has taken the opportunity to take a bite first and exits to watch the show with satisfaction. But there are more big forces and more retail investors who want to be destined for life, rushing in, hoping to win in the Pacific Ocean.
In that new plane whose coordinates have yet to be determined, tear off a few more pieces of flesh.
"It's so rare to have leisure time!" Qin Yikun, who has always been dedicated to his duties, still doesn't drink at all tonight, but he can't help but sigh at this time.
It can be said that since the end of September, Xia City has been in chaos, with people from all walks of life rushing in like a revolving door, setting up a stage to sing, and having a lot of fun. Nowadays, the situation is changing, whether it is the General Assembly or the Justice Order,
They all fell headlong into the whirlpool.
In this situation, in the eyes of the Xiacheng Branch people, it is really an ice drink in summer and a hot pot in winter, all in one comfortable place.
He reached for the ice water in front of him, when behind the bar, Maoyan, who temporarily acted as the bartender, called out:
"Jerry!"
With a "swish", a fat brown shadow jumped from the gap between Qin Yikun's arm and the bar. When it came to the cat's eye, it braked suddenly and stopped in front of a glass of juice that had just been prepared.
This is a muskrat, with its iconic long tail swaying on the table. Regardless of this tail, it is nearly 20 centimeters long. When squatting normally, it is taller than a cup. Due to its small head and large body, there is no obvious boundary between the two.
, it looks quite plump. But its size is still underage among its kind.
It was already very close to Xue Lei and Xie Junping, especially the latter, who was really startled. But when Xie Junping turned his head and saw the fat guy in front of him, not only was he not annoyed, but he laughed.
He stood up and said, "Look, I said this little guy is not a mortal thing. I was really hurt by it back then..."
As he spoke, he reached out to touch it. However, the muskrat, which he had already named "Jerry," remained extremely vigilant. He twisted his body and walked around to the other side of the cup, revealing his sharp incisors to Xie Junping.
"Tch, be careful!"
Xie Junping still wanted to tease the little guy, but Maoyan had already ordered it: "Send it to your mother."
As Maoyan spoke, he made two gestures and pointed at Ruiwen, who was sitting alone at the end of the bar in silence.
Jerry's flat head twisted back and forth twice, and his tail swung accordingly. In the end, he actually lowered his body, his front paws clasping the connection between the cup stem and the cup holder, his fat belly pressed against the table, and his webbed hind limbs
He exerted his strength and advanced towards Ruiwen in an almost gliding manner, with a look that made people howl.
If Xue Lei hadn't pulled him in time, Xie Junping would have laughed to the ground.
This is not the first time Qin Yikun has seen this situation, but he still couldn't help but marvel: "This is not the intelligence of a muskrat... Are you sure there is no distortion?"
"The laboratory didn't find it out. Besides, as long as Ruiwen likes it, what's the problem?"
What logic!
Qin Yikun was speechless. The "sensory school" and the "rational school" could not talk together anyway.
At this moment, a call came in. After Qin Yikun answered the call, he stood up after saying a few words, turned around and said, "Leizi, do me a favor and move a few things."
Xue Lei stood up, and Xie Junping was not to be outdone. He stood up unsteadily, raised his hand and said, "I'm here to help, too."
Qin Yikun glanced at Xie Junping's body and didn't have much hope for the effect of Xie Junping's training in just one month, but he still saved him some face and smiled: "Two people are enough, we will go back as soon as we go
.”
He took Xue Lei up in the elevator.
Xie Junping was still a little drunk. He was stunned for a moment and failed to follow him. He saw the elevator closing and could only sit down in frustration. But he turned around and saw Maoyan concentrating on mixing drinks.
He seemed to be ignoring me, and I felt bored... well, I was also a little scared.
It's true that he likes beauties. Not to mention Raven, the image of cat's eyes is his favorite. But the more he comes into contact with the other world, the more he understands the depth inside. He still hides as far away from such a dangerous person as possible.
Xie Junping simply got up again, waited for the next elevator, and walked up.
It was okay on the second underground floor, but when he arrived at the foyer on the first floor, the cold winter wind blew, and he couldn't hold on any longer. Finally, he still had some sense, rushed to the edge of the small square in front of the door, faced the grass, and vomited.
Wave.
Next, his condition improved a lot. The rigorous training during this period also showed its effects. He was standing outside wearing only a thin sweater and didn't feel too cold. Looking around, he looked around and walked through the door.
With the bright lights, he could actually vaguely see the depth of the jungle six to seven meters ahead.
Even though it was still blurry, the only two living creatures in that area, a bird and a beast, could not escape his induction.
According to Dean Wan, he has been able to combine the differences in multiple sensory factors such as sound waves, smells, and thermal radiation to distinguish living entities from the surrounding environment.
According to the other world, this is spiritual awareness.
At this point, even if it is far from being called awakening, it can still be said to be a person with certain "extraordinary power".
Xie Junping could even barely tell that the slightly undulating bird on the branch was a crow, but of course it was far less powerful than the ink.
It seems that his spiritual awareness has improved in the past two days.
What a smooth ride!
"Yeah!" Xie Junping clenched his fists and jumped a few times in the cold wind to vent his passionate emotions. Perhaps because his movements were too large, the crow on the edge of the forest tilted its head, as if it was sizing him up.
Xie Junping whistled to the crow, but the crow did not respond. Instead, at the end of the forest path on the other side of the square, Xue Lei's voice rang out:
"Hey, why are you outside?"
"I wanted to help, but I didn't expect you to run so fast!"
Xie Junping complained half-truthfully, but in the next moment, he saw Xue Lei and Qin Yikun's sturdy and heavy metal boxes with shoulders that were half a man's height, and his words turned into a strange scream:
"What a fool!"
"This is not grass, it is a precision part that is about to be destroyed by our teacher Luo. I think his credit limit must be negative again."
"That's not the case, the commission from SVIP's model usage fee is still very considerable. Lei Zi, you put on the bracelet immediately, it is inevitable that a full man will not know that a hungry man is hungry."
Qin Yikun unloaded the box weighing hundreds of kilograms from his shoulders like a school bag and put it in the hall. Only then did the load-bearing pulleys of the box come into play.
Xue Lei followed the instructions, and Xie Junping came over and touched the outer shell of the box curiously, but he didn't see anything.
At this moment, he felt something in his heart, and turned his head. The crow on the edge of the jungle flapped its wings, flew away from the branches, scraped twice in the air, flew deep into the forest, and soon disappeared.
