On the morning of February 6, the fourth conference room of the Brave New World Research Center in the Poppy District of San Martin, Colombia.

The morning meeting had just ended, and Xue Pheasant and her researchers were about to return to the workroom to start the day's work. When she stood up to leave, someone stopped her.

"Please wait a moment, Miss Snow Pheasant."

Even though he has been working here for a while, Xue Zhi is still not used to being addressed using honorifics when talking to others.

"Ah, Gunter, what's the matter?"

The person who stopped her was Gunter. Gunter joined her project as a second-level researcher ten minutes ago, but their previous research directions were completely different. Snow Pheasant still couldn't see any overlap between their projects.

.

"I want to talk to you about the project after get off work. After all, I need to do more homework."

Xuejia suddenly realized that this was the reason. She asked curiously: "Didn't your original project supervisor tell you about the arrangements of the research center a few days ago?"

The research center will notify researchers in advance when making personnel transfers. Snow Pheasant thought that Gunter had been informed in advance, but now it seems that this is obviously not the case.

"Not yet. When I was in Qiangwei District, for some reason, the communication equipment suddenly failed, so I probably missed the message. Anyway, thank you. Being able to join your project is a rare opportunity for me."

Snow Pheasant didn't take it to heart. She corrected Gunter: "It should be said that Mr. Lin gave us the opportunity. Well, let's talk after get off work, but you may need to take some notes. My topic is now divided into two Two directions, one is the application of barbed hooks, and the other is telescopic electric catching nets, and they also require a new safety protocol."

"Okay, I'll treat you to dinner."

"eat?"

Snow Pheasant hesitated for a few seconds. Just when Gunter thought she had other ideas, she asked in a low voice: "Let's go to the canteen. Today's dishes seem to be very good."

Gunter was stunned. He didn't expect Snow Pheasant to think so simply.

…

At the same time, on the other side of the city, the detective lady stood anxiously at the door of the Eagle's Nest Bar. She was still waiting for the arrival of her companion, but the other party seemed to have missed the appointment. Fifteen minutes had passed since the agreed time, and no one was seen.

arrive.

It's a coincidence that they met here, all because of Miss Frostleaf's ice cream. It's really surprising that the taciturn man of the undead is also interested in desserts.

After a few more minutes, Mei was about to lose her patience. She turned around and saw a tall figure standing behind her. She screamed "Ah" and backed away in fright. Unexpectedly, there were steps behind her.

His feet were in the air and he fell backwards.

At the critical moment, the undead stretched out his hand to catch her, and he was so quick that he took action even before she retreated.

After Mei stood firm, she supported her crooked hat and couldn't help complaining: "Did you already know that I would be frightened and fall down?!"

"Yes."

The words of affirmation came from the hoarse throat of the undead, and the angry detective's cheeks turned red. She searched in her mind but couldn't find the words to fight back. She couldn't help but lowered her head in despair, thinking that if it were the penguin, she would definitely use it.

The sharpest rhetorical reply!

"Why are you so late?"

Mei temporarily let go of her unhappiness. She was more curious about what the undead had been doing in these twenty minutes. If she overslept, she would have to laugh hard to relieve her anger!

"investigation."

Mei was confused by the undead's golden answer. She thought about it all night yesterday and couldn't figure out where to look for clues. How could the undead find its target so quickly?

She followed two steps forward, pressed down her peaked cap, and whispered: "Where are we going now?"

“Sunflower District.”

"What are you doing there?"

"Check for clues."

Mei couldn't help but feel angry. She said she was a partner. How could she be a partner when she was talking so secretly?

The undead's footsteps paused slightly. He waited for Mei, who had been lagging behind, and then said: "Now it's up to you to take the lead. When you get to the Sunflower District, you must be very tough. If necessary, you can use a Taser to hit people.

Don’t worry about other problems, if there is a close combat, just leave it to me.”

He rarely spoke many words. Mei stopped and listened. She vaguely noticed a brief fluctuation in the undead's mood. In addition, due to the vigilance of the detective, the undead's current movements seemed to be avoiding someone.

She glanced at the people chatting on the street from the corner of her eyes. There seemed to be nothing special among the people coming and going, but there was a tall man who just walked past, followed by a Carters girl.

"let's go."

The undead continued to move forward, Mei frowned. She vaguely felt that the undead had just come to life for a moment, and then fell into a long dead silence.

…

"Doctor, did you really find Miss Frostleaf here?"

Amiya followed Zhou Jinru and looked up at the sign of the Eagle's Nest Bar. She didn't like the place very much. The doctor couldn't drink. He would fall over if he touched it. There were only two of them now. If they were knocked down by the smell of alcohol, would they still be able to do it?

Want her to drag such a big man back?

Zhou Jinru nodded. Ever since he saw Shuangye and Jianlei that night, he knew that he would definitely come to this place again in the future.

After making up their mind, the two people walked in one after another, but they were stopped when they reached the door. The security guard looked at Amiya and pointed to the height scale at hand: "Brother, bring such a young child to the bar.

That's not kind. I advise you to go back now, otherwise I will notify people from the police station to arrest you. This has happened before."

Zhou Jinru: "..."

What's going on in this world? Does his face look like a lolicon? Who is Amiya, the leader of Rhode Island? She's 160 centimeters tall including her long ears, so she's a bit younger. She's sixteen.

Have you ever seen a 16-year-old power leader who is only 16 years old?!

Of course, these words were of no use. The security guard didn't listen at all. Seeing that the conversation had collapsed, a Ms. Walper came out and looked at Zhou Jinru and then at Amiya, who had an unhappy face.

Sighing: "I originally thought you were pretty good, but I didn't expect you to be such a scumbag, with such a unique taste..."

"I'm not! I told you I'm not, this is my friend, she just looks a little smaller!"

Zhou Jinru was about to collapse and deeply felt the malice of this world.

"Are you Patrick's spring thunder?"

"I've told you so many times, now I'm called Jian Lei."

Amiya looked past Zhou Jinru and looked at Ms. Walper opposite, and continued: "We are here to see Miss Shuangye. If you have her contact information, please tell me. She will not refuse to see me."

"oh?"

Jian Lei became interested and looked at Amiya's appearance, her long ears, and the dark-faced Zhou Jinru, and rolled his eyes: "I know who you are, please come with me.

."

Things turned around so suddenly?

Zhou Jinru and Amiya looked at each other and were surprised by Jian Lei's sudden change of attitude.

"Oh, don't be surprised. That kid Shuangye told me about you. She once had a shady boss, which should refer to the gentleman next to you. I also know what you do. Her life is very good now, maybe

I won’t agree to go back, after all, this world will not be destroyed without anyone.”

Jian Lei walked beside Amiya. Compared to Zhou Jinru, she had a better impression of the little rabbit.

Amiya seemed to have recalled some bad experience, and from the moment Jian Lei walked beside her, she unconsciously leaned towards Zhou Jinru.

"We are a serious pharmaceutical company and will not force anyone to sign a contract of sale. There was a misunderstanding between Shuangye and I before. Now I just want to clear up the misunderstanding."

Zhou Jinru tried his best to explain, but Jian Lei was obviously not satisfied with the answer. She smiled playfully: "It seems that you don't understand girls' hearts at all. Some misunderstandings are better left alone than solved. To be honest

I would rather you take that child back for her own good, otherwise I would not agree to take you to see her."

"Why?"

Jian Lei took a deep look at Zhou Jinru and explained: "The child's time is running out, and you are the only ones who have hope of saving her. You are a doctor, so you should be able to understand what I mean, although this is Rhine Life.

It’s a small place, but those researchers who are engaged in scientific research are far more interested in killing people efficiently than in how to save people, I don’t need to say more about this.”

Suddenly, Zhou Jinru remembered that in Shuangye's game files, the infection level was as high as 16%, second only to several high-risk operators. The root cause of all this was the poor living environment of Colombia's lower-class people, who had been trained as mercenaries since childhood.

Even the infrastructure skills of Frost Leaf accelerate the production of combat records, which are experience props that are used as dog food by players.

"Thank you for your help. If possible, we also hope to help Shuangye," Zhou Jinru said in a sincere tone, "I may have done some things that hurt Shuangye in the past, and I would like to find an opportunity to make up for it."

"Don't say this to me. Go tell Shuangye and see if she is willing to forgive you. Let me advise you, even if she wants to slap you, you should stand still and let her do it. Then hug her and say

You are wrong, let her give you a chance, if you can prove it to her, maybe things will work out."

Zhou Jinru: "..."

Amiya: "..."

Why is this guy still acting as a wingman?

Shuangye is now a student at St. Martin Community College, and this adult university is located in Qiangwei District, attracting many civilians to study here. When Zhou Jinru and three people arrived, there were no people in the school because of classes, only people watching.

I pulled a banner at the door, which seemed to be an advertisement for Brave New World.

"Mr. Lin's advertisements are all here?"

Zhou Jinru sighed.

Amiya showed no expression, and felt neither sadness nor joy in her heart.

Jian Lei was silent, and Zhou Jinru sensed a bit of depression from her mood.
