Chapter 157 Underground mines, emotional mobilization(2/3)
Ruin beasts like to feed on humans and also like metals.
To the wild people, the beast is both a prey and a hunter.
But for Yang Bingzhong, the beast is the best accomplice.
Thanks to the help of the ruin beasts in destroying corpses and traces, this place will never be full.
It's a pity that Xumon has no interest in clothes and other things.
Over the years, although there are no corpses piled up here, the clothes and other personal belongings of the hard workers have been piled up as relics.
Yang Bingzhong chose to burn it regularly.
God knows how huge and on what principle he has built an air circulation system here.
Ren Zhongyou walked on the black ashes, and then used the mechanical arm installed on the armor to dig up some ground.
From top to bottom, the braid in the ashes shows differences in age.
The incompletely burned pieces of clothing at the bottom were at least ten years old. Although they were not completely burned, they had been degraded to pieces by microorganisms and were broken into powder the moment they were dug out.
As for the top one, although it is damaged, the remaining pieces look new.
Ren Zhong walked slowly without saying a word.
He tried hard to control his mood.
After a long time, he made a new decision.
Considering that family members of the team members might appear here, such as Wen Lei's missing parents, Yu Jin's father, Ou Youning's mother, etc., he decided to search carefully to see if he could find some relevant relics.
Then when the time is right, he can give these to the team members, and everyone will have something to rely on.
Ren returned to the center of the hemispheric space, turned on the improved scanner on the armor, and raised it to the highest power.
Multiple instruments such as electromagnetic scanning, ultrasonic scanning, low-power X-ray scanning, etc. repeatedly scanned this space.
First, a rough outline of the stereoscopic projection is formed, and then the accuracy is continuously improved.
After a full two hours, his armored brain finally built a complete model based on the information it continuously collected.
Objects of various materials are stacked together, making the model look colorful and almost indistinguishable to the naked eye.
"Eliminate cotton and linen."
Most of the items in the model are missing.
"Eliminate..."
Less than half.
"Remove active organic matter."
There is only a small part missing from the model, which should be underground insects and the like.
Dots of objects are suspended.
Now, the model looks like a hollow galaxy.
"Focus on objects with regular shapes and artificially cut corners."
Some stars in the Milky Way galaxy light up.
Ren Zhong began to rummage like a real garbage man.
An hour later, he piled up a half-person-high pile of objects in the corner of the hemispheric space.
In the pile of objects are some plastic ornaments, unburned paper, broken resin glasses, rubber shoes...
Turning on the searchlight, Ren Zhong lowered his head and looked at the half-burnt square piece of paper in his hand, falling into silence.
This is a yellowed photo.
The photos are not buried on the bottom floor, but on the top floor.
Next to it is a set of standard radiation-proof clothing that looks much more upscale than other clothing.
The radiation protection suit is very new, with no trace of microbial degradation, and the unburned parts still smell clean and tidy.
This photo was originally supposed to appear in a pocket watch, paired with Wen Lei's pocket watch.
But now, the metal pocket watch must have been swallowed by the beast, leaving only the photo.
In the photo, a little girl is smiling brightly.
She has bronze skin and white teeth.
There is also half a strong arm beside the girl.
She is Wen Lei's childhood friend Ai Jiashan.
According to legend, she achieved a class leap because she was adopted by a senior citizen ten years ago.
She is also the only deserter in Spark Town who has become a citizen in the past ten years.
Wen Lei once said that he didn't know what Ai Jiashan's talent was.
But Ren Zhong got the answer.
She must also be a smart girl with some talent in the field of mining or smelting.
She should be an upper-middle-level manager here.
She lived in the dormitory area of the middle cavity for ten years and was murdered not long ago.
Ren Zhong sighed and put the photos into the storage box.
Obviously, Ai Jiashan is both a victim and an accomplice in this massacre, even if that was not her intention.
Let's go back and find a suitable opportunity to tell Wen Lei the bad news.
It's just that Ren Zhong lied to Wen Lei again, saying that he had dealt with Ai Jiashan in the Internet world.
He probably still needs to patch up this lie.
Ren Zhong searched for a long time.
Unfortunately, he could not find any other relics related to the team members.
Maybe, but he really couldn't tell.
But he found a complete five-inch photo of the two of them in the inner pocket of a high-end uniform.
The owner of the uniform died at exactly the same time as Ai Jia Shan, from the same batch.
In the photo, a man and a woman are standing side by side, smiling very sweetly.
Ren Zhong recognized this woman as Tang Shuying.
However, Tang Shuying in the photo looks younger than she is now, and it should have been taken when she was in her twenties.
Ren Zhong put the photo in his arms and returned to the ground.
He didn't go to the mining area at the bottom.
Although the ore there has been excavated, there must still be radiation left.
Although his radiation-proof external armor has excellent performance, the radiation from foreign minerals is not a trivial matter.
Ren Zhong was not sure whether it would be dangerous for him to venture down rashly.
After seeing this, it is enough to confirm the authenticity of the whole thing and to draw out the complete context.
…
Day 49, morning.
Ren Zhong was leading a team hunting when Ma Xiaoling sent him a message.
"There's something new."
Ren Zhong: "What?"
Ma Xiaoling: "According to the original plan, I should quarrel with you this evening, right?"
"Yes. After today's quarrel, I will go to Manager Ju's villa to sleep. When we go hunting tomorrow, you will block the door and beat me again."
Ma Xiaoling: "But just now, a marginalized person in my guard who I don't take seriously came to me mysteriously and sent me an information package. He also reminded me that you are not a good match."
Yes, I know roughly what is in the package without asking.
It must be "solid evidence" that Yang Bingzhong's spy has been secretly following and photographing him for "playing with women" these past few days.
Yang Bingzhong took the initiative.
Ma Xiaoling was speechless about this thief, but the heavy responsibility was expected.
His behavioral logic is really easy to predict.
A superficial person who only relies on the routines in rigid textbooks to pretend to be sophisticated is destined to have this stupid ending.
Yang Bingzhong can deal with the former Ma Dafu with just this method.
The reason why Ma Dafu lost was because he had a bottom line.
