Natsume Yunyu woke up after having been in a coma for two weeks.
When he woke up, he found himself lying in a large, bright room with only a hospital bed and some medical equipment.
There is a pot of flowers and a small plate of fruit on the bedside cabinet.
After being in a daze for a while, Natsume remembered what happened before she fell into coma.
…
Another week has passed.
"Natsume, if you recall carefully, are there really no other survivors found in Area R of Vault 03?"
Investigators came one after another.
First it was the senior management of the shelter where Natsume was located, then it was the regional management level of Xiongan District, and then...another group of First Central Axis staff came.
Everyone's problems are similar.
But the answers Natsume gave each time were not exactly the same.
Now, sitting opposite him was a middle-aged man who looked kind-faced, but in fact... Natsume could see that he was difficult to deal with, and he was a very scary person.
Natsume raised her head and looked at the news broadcast on the big screen in the public activity space in the distance.
After half a year of hard work, scientists finally gave the public a reassurance.
"According to our scientific calculations, it is estimated that in three to four months, the disaster will end and the 'sun' will rise as usual."
After saying this, the host's voice was drowned out by the cheers in the shelter.
Natsume was also excited, but not as excited as he imagined... He thought he would also jump with joy.
But after living in this darkness for nearly half a year, he suddenly felt that maybe all this was not as bad as it seemed.
The middle-aged man also noticed the cheers outside. He smiled and waited until the cheers subsided a little before continuing to ask Natsume: "Natsume, I know you must have experienced terrible things in Area R, but look
, you are safe now, and the 'sun' will rise again in a few months. If you can't prepare in advance, then the um under Base 03...do you understand what I mean?"
Natsume nodded, and then said: "I remember, Director Qiao."
"Oh? Then tell me quickly." Qiao Xiandong finally showed a sincere smile.
But what Natsume said next made his smile fade again.
"There is no R-area in Base 03. Hanako and I just lost our way and got separated in the ventilation duct... Later... I heard some strange noises."
"Natsume, outside, you really have to say that there is no R-area in Base 03, but you and I both know that R-area exists, and many people are just pretending to be confused, so..."
Natsume shook his head and insisted: "No... I don't understand what you said... Hanako and I did not find a deeper area... We got separated, and then I was bitten by an unknown monster.
...I was very scared at the time, and I thought about returning to the team quickly and asking others to help me find Hanako... But I didn't expect that I fainted after I came back... I stayed in a coma for two weeks."
Qiao Xiandong stopped laughing. After staring at Natsume for a while, he lowered his head and took a deep breath and said, "Okay... Natsume, then... I wish you a speedy recovery. Thank you for your hard work."
With that said, Qiao Xiandong stood up and left.
Natsume leaned against the wall with an expressionless face. When everyone went out, he closed his eyes and fell asleep just like that.
…
The next day, Natsume was "released".
The person who came to pick him up was Masato Shimizu, and she also brought her own bodyguards. The formation looked like welcoming a gangster boss at the gate of a prison.
Natsume is not a gangster in society, he is just a tired ordinary person.
When he saw Masato, Natsume felt a little at ease. He and Masato left without saying a word and followed her.
Back at Masato's residence, Masato didn't ask where Natsume Hanako had gone. She seemed to have known for a long time that Hanako would never come back.
Natsume washed up at Masato's place and changed into clean clothes before saying goodbye and going back to his post.
Finally, he stopped him and said: "Natsume, I asked my brother to change your job for you. Your previous job has been replaced by someone. You can stay here from now on."
Natsume was a little surprised and asked: "What kind of job?"
Masato walked over and smiled slightly: "It's a leisurely job, but the responsibility is not small." As she said this, she handed Natsume her new work badge.
Natsume took it and took a look.
"Environmental system inspector?" Natsume had never heard of this position.
Masato explained: "Well, the shelter in Xiongan District is different from those in the Wangye Ecological Zone in New Tokyo City. It is an underground ecological shelter that can grow and continue to expand its space. In layman's terms,
It is like a giant beast born underground, and we are all cells in its body. Only when each cell performs its own role can it thrive, and the environmental system inspector... is a bit like the white blood cells in our body.
Your job is to kill harmful bacteria that invade the human body, and your job is to find hidden environmental system hazards throughout the shelter through inspections, and report them for easy investigation."
Natsume nodded when he heard this: "Oh... I understand... But can't this work be directly handed over to the central algorithm core of the shelter? Let people be responsible for it... Even if I keep walking all day long, I'm afraid
I can’t even walk through every corner of the entire shelter.”
Masato smiled: "You reminded me, the main part of this work is indeed completed by the central algorithm core through its sampling data analysis, but some data are very strange, just
No matter how powerful the central algorithm core is, it still takes a long time to learn and upgrade to give a correct disposal report, so we need the intervention of inspectors. Just to give a simple example, last week the central algorithm core found that the production area c-
The overall production efficiency of the 0311 production team has fluctuated greatly recently. After excluding the impact of the health problems of the team members, the central algorithm core tried a variety of objective factors to deal with the strategy, but in the end, it was unable to bring the production team back to normal.
...It even tired itself out."
Natsume heard what he heard was novel and interesting, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Huh? There are actually problems that the central algorithm core cannot solve?"
"Well, the engineers were also very surprised by this. In the end, they agreed that the problem required experienced managers to go deep into the work area to solve it... What they didn't expect was that the block leader went there for one day and solved the problem...
...Guess, what is this problem? How is it solved?" Masato hesitated.
Natsume frowned and asked, "Listening to what you just said, I really can't guess it, but I think if you give me some more information, I might actually be able to guess the key points."
Masato raised an eyebrow, picked up the crystal plate, called up the final processing report, and handed it to Natsume: "Here, the first half of this report contains all the information you need."
After Natsume took it and looked at it for a while, he quickly raised his head with a smile and said confidently: "I guess... it's because there is a love triangle in this group, right?"
Masato was still smiling, but after hearing this, her eyes suddenly widened and her mouth turned into an O-shape.
"Oh my God! How did you tell?"
Natsume didn't explain, just asked: "Just tell me if your guess is correct?"
Masato smiled and nodded: "Yes, you guessed more than half of it right, but it's not a triangle relationship, but a more complicated emotional line between four people."
This time it was Natsume's turn to be shocked. You must know that he was actually pretending to be confident just now and just said it casually.
But I didn't expect...
Seeing Natsume's surprised look, Masato smiled bitterly and said: "It's incredible, right? The 0311 working group is all men. It's understandable that there is a couple, but the complicated relationship between four people... is... um..."
Masato's pretty face turned red as she spoke, she stuck out her tongue and said no more.
Natsume also smiled bitterly, sighing inwardly: 'This long-term closed underground world is still not suitable for human survival...'
By figuring out what the problem is, Natsume doesn't have to worry about how to solve it.
At the same time, he also realized that the new job that Masato gave him was indeed one of those things that felt relaxing, but actually... was easy to do without seeing it.
But he needs this kind of challenging job now, otherwise...if he were asked to go back to his previous position and repeat prison-style labor day after day, he might also do crazy things.
"Then...thank you, I like this job very much."
Masato smiled slightly: "It's best if you like it. Besides... this job doesn't require you to hang around all day. You can use your free time to do what you like... or come drink tea with me and play chess.
What."
Natsume nodded: "Okay."
…
When Natsume got her new job, Hanako, who chose to stay in No. 03 Shelter in the Mochino Ecological Zone in New Tokyo City with her mother, also "started her job".
But at first, when Hanako didn't meet the camp leader, she thought she would be assigned to be a "farmer" in the greenhouse.
It can be seen that after seeing the mysterious leader, Hanako's first reaction was to be a nymphomaniac, then to be wary, and finally to turn into a little fan girl.
So who is this mysterious leader?
It was none other than Zhang Yuchu, Liang Qiuru’s senior at university.
It stands to reason that the fifty-one-year-old Zhang Yuchu is no longer even an uncle. How could a young man like Hanako catch a cold?
But Zhang Yuchu, an old man, is an alternative among men. Not only does he have the appearance of a boy and a girl, but he also exudes a cold and feminine beauty from his bones. Moreover, his appearance seems to be fixed at the most attractive age of thirty. Apart from him,
The frost in his eyes shows the color of time, and any girl who sees him will inevitably bump into each other.
With Hanako's character, she didn't need to ask Zhang Yuchu when she saw him...but she quickly remembered who he was.
His name is Zhang Yuchu, and he is Liang Qiuru's senior. They once studied together at Tsinghua University in Beijing. When they were students, Zhang Yuchu and Liang Qiuru were a couple of gods.
It's a pity that both of them later left for other countries for their respective dreams, and their relationship ended.
They met again many years later at a memorial service for Zhang and Chu's wife. At that time, Liang Qiuru had just learned of the news of her husband's death.
So...um...
In short, since then, Hanako has discovered that her mother has become increasingly close to her senior student when she was a student. Not only did the two exchange letters frequently, but they also met frequently for private meetings.
Of course, this was just Huazi's own understanding. She didn't know that Liang Qiuru had been using Zhang Yuchu's connections to find out the whereabouts of Huazi's father these years.
But Hanako misunderstood, so it is understandable that Hanako is wary of Zhang Yuchu.
As for why he transformed into a little fan girl in just half a day...that's because the handsome old Zhang Yuchu's personality charm is really irresistible.
Having been teachers for nearly thirty years, Zhang and Chu have stood in front of those crude blackboards for many years in prestigious universities, key high schools, and even Hope Primary School in remote areas.
With so much accumulation in a person's life, it seems to come naturally to him
He has affinity and appeal, and his words and deeds are convincing.
A little girl like Hanako who has been in Wangye Ecological Zone since she was born, naturally "falls" easily.
But after transforming into a little fan girl, Zhang Yuchu gave Hanako an unexpected job.
"Hunter? Are you really planning to train me to be a hunter?" Hanako thought she had heard wrongly.
Zhang Yuchu did not joke, he said seriously: "Hanako, I can see that you are very talented in sports, and I heard from your mother that you also learned Taekwondo and dance when you were a child, so you must have some foundation, so...
I think you should become an excellent 'hunter' instead of going to the greenhouse to take care of the seaweed."
Hanako smiled and scratched his head: "Well... you are right, but I used to be lazy... besides... I am a little unsure."
"Um?"
"It's just a week, I'm worried that I can't do it." Hanako said honestly, but also because of fear.
She had been in the camp for a few days, but she still had nightmares about those disgusting monsters every night.
When she thought that she might have to go out to hunt these guys every day as a "hunter", Hanako's hands were shaking with fear.
Zhang Yuchu didn't have any unnecessary nonsense. He just smiled and said: "Actually, many times, many things are like wanting to travel but always being trapped at home... Everything is difficult at the beginning. As long as you choose to get up and go out, traveling is the hardest.
Just take one step forward."
After hearing this, Hua Zi suddenly became enlightened. She couldn't help but have little stars in her eyes. She looked at Zhang Yuchu with admiration: "Wow, leader, you said that and I'm not worried anymore!"
Zhang Yuchu smiled and touched her head: "Okay, I still have something to do. You go back and talk to your mother, and then go down and find the old cat to start training."
Hanako was transforming into a kitten at this time, enjoying the "caress" greedily. After hearing this, she said "meow" obediently: "Okay!"
…
However...when Ms. Liangqiu heard that Hanako was assigned to be a "hunter", she immediately transformed into a female devil.
"What? That bastard Zhang Yuchu wants my precious daughter to become a 'hunter'? Has his head been caught in the door?"
The doctor who was changing the dressing on the wound on Liang Qiuru's arm said with a bitter smile: "Well, please don't move, the wound will collapse again."
How could Liang Qiuru care about this now? She had long been impatient with the doctor who was changing the dressing so quickly, so she grabbed the medicine and sprinkled it on the wound, then wrapped the gauze up.
He tied it with one hand and said: "Okay, you can go about your business, I have to find Zhang Yuchu to settle the score!"
"Hey, hey! You haven't had the injection yet!"
"Save it for someone else to use!"
…
"Children, today we are going to have a history class. Does anyone know the reason why we chose to have a history class today?" Zhang Yuchu has another identity besides the leader of the camp. So
He is the teacher of all the children who survived.
These children of different ages are gathered together. In addition to sharing some work within their ability for the camp every day, they also have to attend classes and study at other times.
Because Zhang Yuchu firmly believes that the "sun" will rise sooner or later, but education cannot be delayed for a day.
After Zhang Yuchu raised the question, the twenty-five students in the teacher fell silent.
Zhang Yuchu was slightly disappointed, but he still smiled and said, "I was careless. Is it true that no classmates know what day it is?"
At this time, a boy finally raised his hand.
Zhang Yuchu's eyes lit up. The boy in his early ten years was usually taciturn, but to his surprise, he was not proactive today.
"Wu Haochen."
"Teacher, can you tell us first what day it is today?" Wu Haochen stood up and asked.
Zhang Yuchu was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly: "I'm sorry, everyone, I was negligent. Today is November 3rd, 2145 AD."
After hearing the exact date, Wu Haochen immediately replied: "November 3rd is the date of agreement. 100 years ago today, heads of state from more than a hundred countries around the world gathered in Beijing, China, and reached an agreement that has impacted today.
"Convention No. 0494" covers international network information security, artificial intelligence development, natural resource exploration and development, new energy recycling construction, aerospace and other projects. The core essence of the agreement is to comprehensively build a community with a shared future for mankind, so "
Promise No. 0494 is also known as the Charter for Building a Community with a Shared Future for Mankind. The date of the Promise has also been designated as an international celebration day by the international community! Because it was on this day that countries around the world put aside their prejudices, broke down barriers, and began to work for mankind in a true sense.
The overall destiny plans the future.”
After finishing this long paragraph, the class fell silent again, and everyone looked at Wu Haochen in surprise.
Including Zhang Yuchu, he had no idea that a teenage child not only knew what day it was and what its origin was, but could also explain it in detail and grasp the key points.
This really surprised and delighted Zhang Yuchu.
After Wu Haochen finished speaking, his expression did not change and he just asked, "Teacher, am I right?"
Zhang Yuchu came back to his senses, smiled slightly, applauded Wu Haochen, and encouraged: "Very good, Wu Haochen, what you said is not only right, but also wonderful! There are many things that even the teacher did not think of.
.”
Everyone in the classroom also applauded, and some girls even cast admiring glances at Wu Haochen.
However, Wu Haochen showed a maturity and stability that was completely different from his age. He nodded and sat back in the corner silently.
