Chapter 10 "The Chosen Son" (Recommendation Ticket Requested)
Long Yuehong originally thought that Shang Jianyao would echo a few words to comfort herself, but who knows that the other party didn't say a word, and walked straight ahead, as if she didn't hear what she was saying at all.
Long Yuehong opened her mouth, wanting to repeat it, but in the end she didn't say it, she just sighed silently.
After walking in silence for a while, the two arrived at the fourth elevator area at the corner of Area C.
While waiting for the elevator to arrive, Long Yuehong felt that time passed very slowly, and every second was painful, which made it difficult for her to breathe.
Finally, the elevator on the left opened the hall door.
After entering, Shang Jianyao swiped the electronic card and pressed the 647 button.
The car door is closed immediately, and the elevator starts to go up.
Seeing the changes in the floor numbers, Shang Jianyao suddenly spoke in a low voice:
"Everyone has a mission."
Long Yuehong was stunned for two seconds, then said with a bitter smile:
"I just want to stay in the company, find a good wife, have two lovely children, a boy and a girl, and strive to make them eat meat three times a week..."
His voice gradually lowered, as if he already felt that such a goal could not be accomplished.
Shang Jianyao didn't speak any more, and Long Yuehong didn't know what to say. The two of them stood there with their mouths closed, making the time inside the elevator seem to have come to a standstill.
After an unknown amount of time, the elevator stopped at the 647th floor.
As Long Yuehong walked out, she lowered her head and asked:
"Shang Jianyao, what were you thinking just now? I was thinking, luckily I have a younger brother and younger sister."
"I'm in a daze." Shang Jianyao said, looking ahead.
"...You have such a good attitude." Long Yuehong couldn't help sighing.
"After all, I applied by myself." Shang Jianyao turned his gaze to the right to check the house number.
"..." Long Yuehong was speechless, and searched for room No. 14.
Unlike the 495th floor, the 647th floor is not divided into several streets, and the rooms are not only two or three meters wide.
The "training grounds" are centered here, and they are surrounded by several large rooms.
Soon, Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong arrived outside Room 14.
There was no nameplate on the door, which made it impossible for the two of them to guess which operation group, which brigade and which group of the Ministry of Security belonged to this place.
Long Yuehong opened her mouth and inhaled forcefully, preparing to adjust her mentality and face her fate.
At this moment, Shang Jianyao didn't hesitate at all, bent his fingers, and knocked on the door.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sound came a bit suddenly, interrupting Long Yuehong's deep breathing.
He was about to complain to Shang Jianyao, when a slightly hoarse female voice came out:
"Please come in."
Shang Jianyao twisted the handle and pushed open the door.
Long Yuehong immediately looked inside and glanced around roughly.
This room is at least three times larger than his home, and there is a desk painted with brown-red paint and two large bookcases in the innermost part.
There are three tables on the left side of the wall, which are black and quite old.
The middle part and the right area play the role of "living room". There is a group of scarred cloth sofas, a coffee table, four armchairs, two benches and four low stools.
At this time, a woman stood up on the single sofa and looked towards the door.
She is in her twenties, close to 1.8 meters tall, with an excellent proportion of head, body, and legs, with wheat-colored skin, and black hair neatly tied into a ponytail behind her head.
Unlike the common girls in the "living area", she was wearing a uniform belonging to the "Department of Security" - gray background, with a certain camouflage pattern, looking heroic.
And her facial features are also very suitable for this kind of dress, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and full of heroism.
"Are you the new team members?" The woman smiled brightly, but her voice was a bit loud.
"Yes, yes." Seeing such a beautiful woman with such an unusual temperament, Long Yuehong was a little cautious for a while.
The woman frowned slightly and said:
"louder please."
There was an unspeakable clarity in her voice, obviously not the one who said "please come in" just now.
Long Yuehong was taken aback, thinking that she had somehow offended her boss.
Shang Jian Yao took a step forward, opened his voice and said:
"yes!"
His voice echoed in the room and into the corridor.
The woman smiled again and pointed to her ear:
"It doesn't need to be so loud, I just have a hearing problem, not deaf."
Long Yuehong followed her fingers and saw that there were silver-white metal objects in her ears.
"The cochlea." The woman said frankly.
She immediately restrained her smile, and said in a voice much louder than normal:
"Let me introduce myself, I am your team leader, Jiang Baimian.
"It is said to be the team leader, but in fact it has not yet reached the D7 level, and currently only D6."
"Yes, team leader." Long Yuehong responded loudly.
"Hello, team leader!" Shang Jianyao looked very happy.
Jiang Baimian pointed to the location of the couch:
"She's another team member, Bai Chen."
Bai Chen was only about 1.6 meters tall. Although he was also wearing a gray camouflage uniform, he was obviously much smaller than Jiang Baimian.
A dusty old scarf was wrapped around her neck, her black hair just passed her ears, her facial features were fairly delicate, and her skin was rather rough, as if she was often exposed to wind and rain.
Unlike Jiang Baimian's dark brown eyes, her eyes are closer to brown.
"Hello." Bai Chen greeted with a slightly hoarse voice.
"Hello." Long Yuehong was still a little cautious.
"Hello!" Shang Jianyao's voice was still loud.
Jiang Baimian pointed to the coffee table and said loudly:
"Find a place to sit by yourself, ah yes, introduce yourself first."
"Shang Jianyao!" Just as Jiang Baimian finished speaking, Shang Jianyao called out his name, then closed the door, took the lunch box, walked over, and sat down on an armchair.
"I'm Long Yuehong, my father's surname is Long, and my mother's name has a red letter in it." Long Yuehong subconsciously explained the origin of his name, and then he sat on the armchair next to Shang Jianyao.
Jiang Baimian sat down, looked around, and said with a smile:
"Now that everyone is here, let me briefly talk about the situation of our group."
"All here?" Long Yuehong blurted out.
There are only four people?
How could a team of the "Department of Security" have more than twenty people?
Jiang Baimian was stunned:
"What did you say?"
"He said there were too few people!" Shang Jianyao helped translate.
Jiang Baimian stretched his eyebrows, smiled and said:
"We are not a combat team."
Not a combat team? Long Yuehong was overjoyed.
Jiang Baimian glanced at Shang Jianyao and said:
"The full name of our team is 'Old World Destruction Cause Investigation Team', or 'Old Tune Team' for short.
"However, I'm not the only old investigation team, whether it's the security department or the board of directors, there are other old investigation teams, but they don't know each other's specific situation.
"Remember! This is the key point, confidential matters!
"Uh, don't worry about repeating the investigation. Although we don't know which old tune groups and what their progress looks like, they will share the latest and most valuable clues with us."
Having said that, Jiang Baimian paused for a moment, his expression became serious:
"Compared to ordinary combat teams, the 'Old World Destruction Cause Investigation Team' may face more and greater dangers.
"Why are there so many micro-teams with the same mission? It's because there was only one old team with a large number of people. Then, during an investigation, it disappeared completely and no one returned. The corresponding loss was very heavy and it was difficult to make up for it. "
Long Yuehong's face turned pale when she heard that:
"This, so dangerous..."
"What did you say?" Jiang Baimian only saw Long Yuehong's mouth moving, and hardly heard any sound.
Long Yuehong subconsciously looked at Shang Jianyao, and found that he had a serious expression and remained silent, and had no intention of translating for her.
Long Yuehong took a breath and shouted:
"So dangerous?"
After roaring like this, he found that his emotions had eased a lot.
Jiang Baimian nodded:
"The old tune team may go deep into the wilderness, investigate the ruins of the city, or go to other forces to find clues. We will face various situations and encounter various enemies.
"It can be said that even the senior employees of the security department are not very willing to join the old investigation team."
Long Yuehong's face turned paler and paler:
"How could we be so unlucky?"
After talking to himself, he roared out:
"How could we be so unlucky?"
Jiang Baimian looked around suspiciously:
"I'm not unlucky... I wasn't assigned here. Our old tune group was actually established only after my application."
She smiled and added:
"I have always believed that we need to find out the reason for the destruction of the old world. Only in this way can we avoid making the same mistakes, find the root of the heartless disease, and let all human beings get rid of this fear.
"Moreover, you have also heard rumors that in the depths of a certain city ruin above the ashes, there is a door leading to the new world. If we never explore, we will never enter the new world, and we will never be able to enter the new world. , distortion, and monsters as companions.
"This is my dream, so I took the initiative to apply to the senior management of the Ministry of Security, hoping to establish a new and old investigation team.
"Hehe, I also like to dig out the past history from the ruins of the city, I like to observe the social conditions of other forces, and I like to get in touch with people and things in different places and in different states."
Bai Chen, who was quietly sitting on the couch, suddenly said:
"I heard someone mention you. He said you were a 'sociologist' and his goddess."
Jiang Baimian chuckled and said:
"Ah, what did you say? I didn't hear what you said last time. Forget it. Tell me about your own situation."
Bai Chen looked at Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong, and said in a slightly hoarse voice:
"I applied to join on my own initiative. As you may be able to tell, I am not someone inside the company. I used to be a wanderer in the wilderness and was later absorbed by the company. I am not yet qualified as a full-time employee, and the old tune team can help me Complete this goal as soon as possible, raise the staff level as soon as possible, and then you will be eligible to apply for genetic modification."
Jiang Baimian turned his head to the side, as if he didn't hear Bai Chen's words clearly.
She smiled and asked:
"Is she talking bad about me behind my back?
"Hehe, we will definitely be active in the wilderness often. We need such a guide who is familiar with the wilderness and has dealt with multiple forces and settlements. Regardless of her young age, she has a lot of experience."
After finishing speaking, Jiang Baimian looked at Shang Jianyao:
"I have read your file, and I can probably guess the reason why you applied to join the old tune group.
"Is there any other reason besides that?"
"To save all mankind!" Shang Jianyao said loudly.
Jiang Baimian's expression was dull, and he raised his hand to touch his ear:
"Ah, what did you say?
"Hehe, no need to repeat, Long Yuehong, why did you join?"
"I was assigned here... I just graduated this year, unmarried..." Long Yuehong said in mourning.
After he finished speaking, he came to his senses and repeated it loudly.
Jiang Baimian blinked:
"Among so many people, are you the only one who didn't get married?
"Among so many graduates, you may be the only one assigned to the Security Department, and you are still in the old transfer team?"
Long Yuehong nodded heavily.
Jiang Baimian thought for a while, then smiled softly and said:
"People like you are generally called the Chosen One."
