The first food stall in the wasteland

Is a first-level researcher so majestic?

Shen Lu followed Li Qin to the office with a confused look on his face.

Li Qin's office is a bit messy. There are a lot of documents piled up on the left side of the desktop, and various experimental equipment on the right side. Shen Lu even saw a few small flower pots. There was a slight green color in the pots. They were so thin and weak that they couldn't be noticed unless they were careful. .

Li Qin rummaged around and found a few star coins from the bottom of a drawer.

She thought about it and gave it all to Shen Lu.

"Little sister, you don't need so many." Shen Lu took out one of the cards, "This much is enough."

She exchanged the sanitary napkins with her popularity points. Although the popularity points were much higher than the value of star coins, the star coins given by Li Qin were obviously at a premium.

"Okay." Li Qin became more fond of Shen Lu, "What's your name? Why did you come to the research institute?"

"My name is Shen Lu, and I came here with others to deliver something."

Shen Lu originally wanted to lie, but after thinking about it he decided to tell his real name.

When entering the institute, you must fill in visitor information, and it is the kind that will verify citizen information. You cannot fake it, so there is no need to lie now to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"Oh." Li Qin had no doubts. Many people came to the institute to deliver things, and this was how they collected many of their research samples.

But why does the name Shen Lu sound familiar?

Shen Ludong took a closer look and asked curiously: "Miss, what are you studying?"

"We should be about the same age, just call me Li Qin." Li Qin casually stuffed the remaining star coins into the drawer, "I study plants."

"Researching new planting varieties?"

"No, I study plant mutations."

"Plants can also mutate? Is it like animals turning into strange beasts?"

"Absolutely." Li Qin doesn't mind chatting with others about his research topics. Anyway, these are not parts that need to be kept secret. "Do you know that mutations are actually divided into benign and malignant?"

Shen Lu shook his head: "I haven't heard of it."

People who do research probably have the heart to be teachers. Li Qin felt that she was very close to Shen Lu, so she talked a lot.

"Like today's superpowers, they are benign mutations, while alien beasts are malignant mutations."

Shen Lu's pupils widened, is there any other way to say this?
According to Li Qin's logic, whenever he awakens, he has a chance of becoming a strange beast?

No, no, what is the alien beast that emerged from Fang Peng's body?
It's more like parasitism in the human body, not a simple awakening.

"What I want to study is to make plants develop towards benign mutations, so that they can grow faster and stronger and bear more fruits."

Li Qin lowered his head to search for information and didn't pay attention to the expression on Shen Lu's face. "This topic has been established for several years, but there has been no major progress. Anyway, I don't think the research value is high."

She seemed to be bitching and complaining.

Shen Lu came back to his senses, "Can plants really mutate? I haven't heard any news about this."

"Of course they can mutate, but there are almost no wild plants now, and cultivated plants have no conditions for mutation." Li Qin clicked his tongue, "I'll take you back to the conference room, don't keep your partners waiting. .”

Shen Lu waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, I know the way back. Just go back by yourself. I won't delay your work."

"That's okay. You go out and turn left, then turn right and you're here. It's best not to take the wrong turn, otherwise you will be treated as a dangerous person." Li Qin asked, "If you really go the wrong way, what will you do if others ask you?" Just answer whatever you want, and I will come to save you when the time comes.”

Shen Lu: ...

Well, these words reduced her lively big thoughts to small ones.

Originally, Shen Lu planned to pretend that he had made a mistake and visit a few more offices, but now it seemed that it was better not to go too far.Don't do sensitive things during sensitive periods. If you are blacklisted, it will be more difficult to enter the Biological Research Institute.

On the way back to the conference room, Shen Lu deliberately walked very slowly. Occasionally, he could catch a glimpse of some scenes in the room through the cracks in the closed door.

It's similar to Li Qin's office, nothing special.

Xue Can returned to the conference room without any danger. The glass box in Xue Can's hand was empty. During the time she left, he had completed the handover with the people at the institute and could leave just waiting for Shen Lu to come back.

The Institute of Biology has never allowed unauthorized persons to stay, and it was no different this time.

The security guard sent the two of them out of the door. The rain outside was heavier than before. Shen Lu frowned. Why didn't the rain stop? It had been raining for several days and it didn't stop.

"Let's go." Xue Can looked up at the sky, "The rain will get heavier soon."

"You want to get bigger?" Shen Lu's little face wrinkled, "Why is this like this?"

There was no way to do business on such a rainy day, and Shen Lu was really worried.

It's not that it's not good to rest. If the rest time is long, Shen Lu will feel a sense of crisis.

Opening the business every day is a bit tiring, but be practical, there will be natural disasters later, she must make herself as strong as possible, and live a good life in the apocalypse.

"It's always been like this. It's the end of the rainy season, when it rains the most." Xue Can put on his rain hat. "If you don't leave, you'll have to swim back."

Shen Lu couldn't swim. She was a landlubber. After hearing this, she immediately followed Xue Can.

Just as Xue Can said, they had just passed the checkpoint and the rain turned from moderate rain to heavy rain. The big raindrops hit Shen Lu, and the weight could be felt through the raincoat and short sleeves.

When he reached the [-]th block, Shen Lu held his hand on the wall and panted, his waist too tired to straighten up.

so tired.

She couldn't walk anymore.

He originally took a taxi when he came out of the research institute, but there was water blocking the road halfway and the taxi couldn't pass, so Shen Lu had to get out of the car.

Therefore, Shen Lu walked the next part of the road by herself. In addition, she had been very physically exhausted when she came here before.

If only there was a boat now, even a plank of wood.

The water on the ground had already covered her calves and was still rising little by little. The rich stench enveloped her whole body. Shen Lu breathed rapidly and her brain went black.

Xue Can noticed that the people behind him had not followed, and when he looked back, Shen Lu looked like he was about to faint.

Look, you deserve it.

Tell her not to go. She must follow her. She may not have enough physical strength to keep up now.

Just when Shen Lu's brain was almost down and she was trying to think about what she should do, her body suddenly floated up.

Ok?
Did she pass out?
No, no, why is her head down?
The sky became the earth, and the earth became the sky.

It took a minute for Shen Lu to realize that he was being carried on someone's shoulders.

This position was not very comfortable. The other person's shoulders were pressed against her stomach, making it uncomfortable to move around.

Shen Lu twisted, trying to change into a more comfortable position.

"Don't move." Xue Can said coldly, "If you move, you can get down and walk by yourself."

"Oh, I can't move."

Shen Lu pursed his lips and muttered secretly in his heart: His service attitude is so bad. Can I ask for a deduction? (End of chapter)
