Chapter 598: Valuable
The heavy rain poured down, soaking the entire city, as if a hole had been opened in the sky, venting anger downward.
Jialongpo is full of high-rise buildings, and the light of civilization and technology is like a sea of stars. It takes such a summer rainstorm to penetrate and wet its bottom.
After Linyin settled down with Lu Jing, she found a place to surf the Internet and sent all the important news she could hack to Ye Zi.
"These messages are really secret, and you need hacking skills to extract them." Ye Zi browsed the relevant information, and felt more and more that Lin Yin's technology was superb.
Linyin was originally just a street hacker. After being promoted and trained, her hidden talent was fully revealed, and she is no less than an elite hacker now.
"I'm very useful." Lin Yin boasted. At the same time, she was also searching for news about the Nemesis Group, where Rinne had spent her childhood, and those transformations and experiments constituted her initial nightmare. And Linyin is destined to fight to the death with Aiden Crusher in Jialongpo.
Ye Zi was wearing silk pajamas, checking the list of treasures at tomorrow's big auction, feeling more and more interested.
Tomorrow there will be many large-scale factories listed for trading, all of which are smart factories in the petrochemical, mechanical and microelectronics industries at the top of the Cold Bay Industrial Zone. If the core production capacity of these Jialongpo is acquired, Nistor's manufacturing capabilities can be described as leaps and bounds.
If it finds a fulcrum in Jialongpo, Nisto Company will not only face the eastern hemisphere, but the whole world. Starting from Jialongpo, they can expand their relationship network to Baixiangzhou, Reshuzhou and the Near East in the west, which is a big step for the current corporate strategy.
The second small target of the auction is the digital mind.
"You really need a digital mind?" Ye Zi asked.
"Of course I really don't want to owe this...forget it, please." Linyin begged.
"Don't worry." Ye Zi understood.
The seller of Digital Mind is very mysterious, and no information can be found. Its core architecture is "Helix-fourth generation". This core digital mind originates from the technology of the Western Hemisphere, emphasizing the optimization of computing efficiency by advanced algorithms. Xu Yang's digital mind uses a six-fold intellectual structure, focusing on the use of the human brain itself.
The third important auction item is the artist's "Peacock Puzzle Painting", which greatly interested Ye Zi.
There are 24 paintings in total, and it is said that each painting has a phantom of a peacock, which is why the painter surnamed Wu is crazy. The page peacock is the messenger of the river goddess, spreading her memories and forbidden knowledge.
Two of the paintings have been unsealed by two local companies in Jialongpo, Yongyi Company and Genting Group. According to their tests, the peacock puzzle painting can give people the "answer".
The process is that the observer first anticipates the question he wants to ask, then gazes at the painting, and immediately feels the answer emerge from the painting and enter his mind.
Isn't this the world's top oracle question answering machine? Ye Zi secretly thought.
However, it is impossible to answer everything in the world.
"What questions did the company people answer with those two paintings?" Ye Zi asked.
"According to the information I hacked, they chose two out of nine questions to ask the riddle: the way beyond the tower; the grand unified theory; the means beyond the limit of telomere splitting in organisms; the creation of this universe the Navier-Stokes equation; how humans become eligible...there are three others that are not clear. Don't know what they chose. Are they really going to ask an ancient god a question of modern technology? "
"The memory of the River Goddess is a record of all past history... There may have been civilizations more advanced than ours in the past." Ye Zi guessed.
All in all, this is not a simple painting, but a medium that can convey knowledge.
Similarly, the starting price of each painting is calculated in hundreds of millions. That knowledge may change the tide of the world, or point to some mysterious ancient technology.
Judging from the clues collected so far, all forces will focus on snapping up and competing for these paintings.
Even if Nisto Company bought 5 or 6 paintings, it would be regarded as a blood profit, and there is no need to get all of them. Its use is ambiguous and doesn't necessarily answer the questions they really need.
Ye Zi thinks hard about her bidding strategy.
At this moment, the manager Qiu Shanyue reported to Ye Zi.
"Miss Kojima... There are guests in the lobby who want to see you." Qiu Shanyue lowered her voice and said in a weak tone.
"Who?"
"She refused to reveal her name, saying that you must see her because her existence is very... important and special. If you miss her, you will lose a big opportunity. In short... very mysterious." Akiyama Yue said, At the same time, send the video information to Ye Zi.
In the lobby sat a very strange woman.
Wrapped from head to toe in a bright red plastic rain canopy ripped from some large rain umbrella, she was soaking wet, sitting on the sofa, soaked in rain. The waiters around looked uncomfortable and wanted to change it for her, but she refused to approach anyone with a hoarse voice.
"Take her to my room." Ye Zi observed carefully.
"Yes." Although Qiu Shanyue was afraid of risks, she was even more afraid of going against Ye Zi's will, so she immediately ordered someone to take the woman in the lobby to Ye Zi's room.
Ye Zi bids farewell to Lin Yin. She thought she knew who the woman in the red awning was.
She sat in front of the dressing table and fixed her nails, and then gave her forearm a shot of cell repair fluid, which is mixed with spices and can greatly improve people's aging condition.
From the observation of leaves, "senescence" is not so much a gradual process, but actually more like a mutation. First enjoy twenty or thirty years of youth, and in an instant, the body functions take a sharp turn for the worse. All the previous staying up late, bad habits, and hidden diseases erupt in an instant, like a trap of impermanence, destroying all vitality.
After finishing the medicine, she ordered food, and then heard footsteps stop at the door.
Ye Zi opened the door with her eyes, and the sliding door opened along the magnetic track, and she saw the woman wrapped in a red rain tarpaulin.
"You can rest assured now?" Ye Zi tried to lift the rain tarpaulin off her body, but she slapped Ye Zi's hand hard.
The security personnel escorting behind wanted to be violent, but was stopped by Ye Zi.
"Go, go, I'm fine." Ye Zi said with a smile.
After the security personnel left, Ye Zi pulled her into the room.
When she walked, the floor was covered with rain, and the leaves smelled bad blood, which reminded her of many dark memories. The struggle ran through their lives, and there were countless corpses along the way.
Countless dead people's names flashed through Ye Zi's mind. She closed the door, tore off the awning, and saw a very young, indifferent girl with pale blond hair and bloodshot eyes, who had been written in secret script from head to toe. The black symbol, the body is dirty, I don't know how much suffering I have suffered along the way.
"Why wrap yourself up like this, Hornet." Kojima Yezi sat on the bed.
"They will come after me."
"Who is there?"
"Invisible Guards." Hornet's eyes were a little distracted.
"More than two digits?" Ye Zi was immediately alert.
"Scared? I can go now." Wasp was weary.
"I'm scared, because this hotel was just attacked once during the day today. Even a group of thugs can't resist, let alone the invisible guards?" Ye Zi said with a smile, and then savored the disappointment on Hornet's face.
"Do you mean I'd better die?" Wasp took a small box from her arms and put it on the table.
Leaf opened the box, and there was a large smart chip inside, which was specially used for synthesizing mental slots.
"How much is this worth?" Ye Zi asked.
"This is A40, it's worthless. I'm sorry to bother you." Hornet walked out.
"Don't be too sad." Leaf approached from behind, holding the wasp's hand.
Not long after, the food delivery waiter delivered the food through the anti-disturbance drifting express tunnel. Ye Zi snapped her fingers, and an eyeball robot flew out from the box on the ground to help them open the dark cabinet by the wall, and filled it with food. The food comes out.
Wasp's eyes lit up when she saw the fried chicken burger, tomato beef soup, barbecue steak, spicy burrito, cheese hot dog, and Coke on the tray. She rushed over and quickly picked up the food and stuffed it into her mouth. The coke cap was poured into his mouth.
Ye Zi looked at the wasp with soft eyes, and she just took out a chicken wing from the meat platter on the tray, and tore it apart.
Watching the way Hornet was eating Hesse, Ye Zi talked to her slowly.
"Our current resources are very limited, and there is not much we can do for you. Have you heard of the Witch God?" Ye Zi said.
"...the Goddess of the Witch promised me to be free, and she let me work here, and I did get... some progress. Do you mean I'm going back to the Goddess of the Witch? I'm... a little scared." Wasp looked up.
She sometimes dreamed, in wild, chaotic dreams, of herself lying on a silver dinner plate and being eaten by a brunette woman.
"You should really be afraid, because what the God of the Witch gives you often comes with a price that you regret. So you must come to my side and be protected by me. This is why you chose Xisheng Hotel. "Ye Zi comforted softly.
"The news said that there was a gun battle here. You are back, and there is that ship." Wasp recognized Nestor from the red innovation.
"Wait here first." Ye Zi persuaded.
The wasp ate half of the food and then got a sore throat.
She stretched out her hands blankly to the projection lamps floating in the air. They looked like some fish swimming in steam waves. Her hands touched those colorful fish schools over and over again, feeling like she was standing in the sea somewhere. In the room, the lights in the room were deliberately dimmed, so that it is convenient to see the sparkling light on the ground.
Wasp's mind was completely absorbed by these visions of fish and water.
What she wants is actually very little. Leaf looked at the wasp, and then crouched cautiously by the window.
boom!
A bullet hit the bulletproof window, and a piece of fragment was shot out, passing through Ye Zi's delicate face, leaving a scar in an instant.
"Coming!" Hornet screamed.
"Don't worry." Ye Zi quietly closed all the curtains, and at the same time sent people to check the surrounding situation, and then mobilized the combat power of the Witch Department.
"..." Hornet said nothing. In order to bring back the Hornets, Black Fire Innovation invested most of its immediate combat power in Jialongpo.
The hotel will be attacked a second time.
"How's the situation?" Ye Zi asked the hotel security department.
Most of the people were killed by the bandits in the afternoon, but some were still alive, and the newly bought combat robots piled up at the door, serving as combat power.
But Ye Zi knows that if they encounter real enemies, they will melt like ice and snow under the scorching sun, and the defense line is as fragile as paper.
"We detected a lot of people ... approaching from various intersections, like paramilitaries."
"How many?"
"There are hundreds of them, and there are some high-risk units mixed in, like heavy armored mercenaries and other things. I suggest you retreat!"
"... Watch the entrance." Ye Zi sat in the room.
