Chapter 421 Chapter 143 Autumn
"Want to understand the meaning of life?"

"Do you want to really live?"

The hoarse voice sounded in the narrow and dilapidated house. The woman was lying flat on the bed, muttering questions that kept circling in her mind.

Turning sideways to glance at the electronic alarm clock on the bedside, the upper right corner of the broken screen shows tonight's temperature at night: 19°C.

"It's going to be autumn"

The quilt was crumpled and piled up in a mess, and there were a few autumn clothes that had just been taken out.

Outside the bolt-type glass window, the sudden strong wind at dusk made people panic. It was a little ridiculous that she had paid an extra 30 federal dollars in rent in order to rent this window that could barely let some sunlight in.

Ping ping bang bang~
A chaotic sound came from the upper floor.

She knew that family, the man was doing low-level jobs in the industrial area, and the woman was making some handmade products at home. Since both of them were healthy adults and had financial resources, they could not receive relief money.

Although this so-called relief fund is actually hovering at the border of dispensable.

"It can't go on like this."

Standing up abruptly, the woman looked at her rough hands, her short and medium blond hair hanging in front of her eyes, she was silent for a while, and then emphasized her tone again,

"It can't go on like this!"

"Drip~ A message from Mr. Crow."

The phone screen lights up.

"Lucy, I'll give you one last day to consider whether you want to come to work with me. Your figure and appearance are not bad, and you haven't received prosthetic body modification. You might be able to be the first-line in my field. And I will try my best not to arrange some weird guests for you."

"roll!"

Shen Sheng roared, his hoarse voice was full of exhaustion.

In this era, the demand for human resources in various factories has been suppressed to an extremely low state. Except for the management, it is normal for the rest to use machine assembly lines, and some jobs that have to use manual labor are often recruited externally. People with electronic brains are preferred.

It's not that Lucy doesn't want to install an electronic brain, but that she has no money at all!
You can't even buy the lowest grade, let alone go to a professional hospital for transformation.

But the situation turned around two days ago.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

There was a knock on the door.

"Lucy, are you ready?"

Familiar voice.

Get out of bed, don't even need to walk, just take a few steps and touch the doorknob.

Standing outside were her few friends.

Colorful skin, facial features covered with metal rings, this kind of curious outfit has been very popular in their area recently.

"Let's go."

The night wind was a little cold, and Lucy walked into the corridor with her arms shrunk and her body huddled.

The light bulb emitting the only dim light was swaying in the corridor by the wind. Looking up to the southeast, the gorgeous neon lights were particularly eye-catching at this time.

"This damn world!"

The companion next to him complained.

Lucy thought the same way, and soon thought of the letter of intent and volunteer form for transformation.

Maybe something will change after tonight?

Long ~
The third muffled thunder of the morning.

It is the time of autumn recently, and the weather forecast shows that it may rain intermittently for a period of time.

Holding the water glass, Zhu Jue glanced at the imprint he left on the water bed and was gradually recovering. He bought the villa at dusk, and he lived there that night.

As for those things in the Heywood area, the important things are all in the space ring, and the unimportant things are for Lisanna to find a place to deal with them directly.

Speaking of which, the room was left by the great race for himself, so Zhu Jue didn't intend to sell it, thinking that if the great race came over time on a whim one day, the two sides might meet again.

Walking out of the bedroom to the edge of the balcony outside, the protective dome outside the entire villa has been unfolded, and the temperature is automatically adjusted to a comfortable 26°C. It was originally intended to simulate a sunny effect, but Zhu Jue refused.

Four seasons like spring will only make people feel nothingness, and the occasional gloom can also be regarded as an adjustment.

Aw~ Aw~
Fengling was having fun in the swimming pool next to it. It was probably the most exciting part of changing to a spacious environment. While running around this villa to confirm his new territory, he also released his excess energy to the fullest.

Turning around and snapping fingers, a layer of water waves in the swimming pool supported the wind chime, which bounced on it for a while and then ran to Zhu Jue's side to circle around.

Holding a large towel to dry the hair of the wind chime, it doesn't like the hum of the hair dryer, so Zhu Jue can only do it by himself.

"Go, let's eat."

Patting Feng Ling on the back of the neck, he went back to the bedroom and changed his clothes. He had to go downstairs for breakfast.

Because the huge villa doesn’t even have bionic servants, originally according to Lisanna’s intention to arrange a few, but considering his own situation, Zhu Jue still refused, because nowadays bionics have their own hues when they are manufactured Value detection function, this is a very popular design to protect the safety of homeowners, but unfortunately it is a bit tasteless for Zhu Jue.

Although Zhu Jue can find someone to turn off this part of the function, but this kind of behavior itself somewhat means that there is no silver 300 taels here.

"I wish Wendy was still here."

Standing in the descending elevator, Zhu Jue subconsciously thought that if the lotus leaf or the sycamore tree had brought Wendy out, he might not have to think about such things now.

Wendy knew her eating habits and her work and rest schedule, and she performed perfectly in all aspects during that time.

In fact, there are times when she's so perfect she doesn't look like a robot.

This kind of statement may be a little weird. Humans always think that there are no perfect creatures in this world, but in many cases, the standard for bionics is to be absolutely close to human beings, taking human words and deeds as their standard, it seems to be The imperfections of being biological make a radical change in the android.

"Heh~ how is it possible."

Zhu Jue talked to himself a little funny, threw out the unrealistic thoughts in his mind, walked into the shopping mall that had been contracted by himself, and sat down at a breakfast restaurant.

While drinking milk, Lisanna's communication request flashed on the screen of the mobile phone. She glanced at the time and found that it was only 7 o'clock in the morning. She scratched her head helplessly and swallowed the rest in one gulp with the shocked expression of a little girl next to her. Most of the meat buns, while chewing, got up and walked back.

"Boss, there is news about the killing game."

Lisanna's words are simple and clear.

"So fast?"

Lisanna was only allowed to spread the news yesterday, but today there is news that Zhu Jue never thought of. After all, Yimeng investigated the matter for nearly half a month, and he thought he would have to spend some time.

"Late last night, someone from the club contacted me, saying that he knew about that game and had participated in it. I thought you should be resting, so I delayed contacting you until this morning."

"Well, what did he say?"

"He wanted to see you and said he had to tell you in person. He is a recent member of the club and has only attended one party, but he is very keen on the liberation of souls."

Obviously, this insider wanted to exchange his information for the opportunity to have individual contact with the hermit, most likely in exchange for some special items.

"Can you confirm the truth of his words?"

"It should be true. Part of the information he revealed is similar to what we know now."

"Okay then, I'm going back to Dawn City later, you can arrange it."

The face-to-face interview here naturally refers to the face-to-face communication between two people through the Internet, rather than meeting in a real environment.

Zhu Jue has just taken over the status of a gentleman hermit, and is getting familiar with this aspect of affairs through Lisanna recently. Naturally, it is not suitable to have close contact with these club members at this time, otherwise it will be easy to reveal his secrets.

It only takes more than half an hour to travel by airboat between Green City and Dawn City, so before 8 o'clock, Zhu Jue appeared at the gate of the Dawn City Archaeological Association.

Why are you here?
Because August's translation results were sent to Zhu Jue's phone last night.

Part of the content needs to be borrowed from the association’s internal materials. August’s identity is sensitive, and the Archaeological Association’s headquarters is doing its best to investigate the robbery in the ruins. They suspect that there are internal leakers. In order to avoid suspicion, he must try to avoid going to the Check the database for information about the relics.

After all, as one of the core figures of the Archaeological Association, his every move always attracted the attention of many people.

No way, Zhu Jue had to do it himself.

"There are nobles and lowly ones, and there are scholars and women. The quality of the soil, the loamy soil, are human beings. A dry tortoise without self can see great knowledge; a magnet without self can see great power; a bell and drum can see great power without self. See great sound; boats and vehicles without me, can see far away. Therefore, although I have wisdom and strength, action and sound, I still have me. Tsk, if I knew it, I should have learned more classical Chinese."

Sitting in the main seat of Olivia's office, Zhu Jue is holding a note in his left hand and a pen in his right hand. The phone is placed horizontally in front of him. On it is the content sent by August, a series of ancient texts, all of which need to be translated by him And based on the content of some archaeological materials for secondary research.

"When you actually sit quietly and do academic research, I have to open the window to see if there is sun in the west."

Olivia, carrying breakfast, came in from the door, stood behind Zhu Jue, stared at his handwriting for a few seconds while talking, then grinned and said,
"You have handwriting that looks like an earthworm crawling, it's better to use voice input."

"You call it peeping at other people's privacy. Be careful, I will call the police and arrest you. Go to the opposite side!"

Stretching out his hand to Olivia's back and pushing her away, Zhu Jue said without raising her head.

He wanted to input by voice, but the problem was that if the content was read out and heard by people nearby, he might be the one who called the police and arrested him.

Olivia was not annoyed, she pulled a chair from one side to the opposite side, and ate breakfast slowly. The working hours of the Archaeological Association are from [-] to [-], and the standard civil servants work and rest. She just came to see it when she was bored at home. Seeing what business needs to be dealt with, who would have thought that there would be someone earlier than her.
