People in Terra, governing a weird little country

Saria glanced at her friend with some surprise:

"What's that in your hand?"

"Data," Kristen replied, "Data from the entire process of the Star Reaching Project."

The data of this entire process naturally also includes the second-hand version of the [recording].

The communicator is open to the public.

The Dome Research Station is her territory, and the Tower of Babel used for experiments was built under her supervision. As a scientist who does not want to miss any information that may be related to the extraterrestrial world, how could she not make corresponding preparations?

The preliminary experiments of the Star Picking Project were conducted no less than a hundred times before the conclusion was reached that Originium life could penetrate the isolation layer! That was a complete experiment of hundreds of times!

During this period, Muerseth was angry because Christen had requisitioned all the [Source Stone Plants] that she had carefully cultivated after the Fire Demon Project. Nastie was also surprised that Christen could so accurately grasp the limit range of electromagnetic interference in the isolation layer when she was in charge of installing the elevator of the Tower of Babel.

This was not surprising, because she had done almost the same thing a hundred times. She had given up countless Originium plants that broke through the isolation layer and were shattered outside, as well as photographic and collection equipment that were damaged because they were too close to the interference range.

With such experience, she was able to install monitoring and sound recording equipment within every limit and grasp all information, including the recordings that were played publicly in the Tower of Babel.

Of course not all.

Information contaminated by evil spirits must be forcibly deleted. Christen is by no means a reckless person. Even if she really wants to soar into the sky, she will prepare a "coffin" for herself in advance.

So, after regaining consciousness that day, no matter how unwilling she was, Kristen had to delete the videos and audio recordings in the Tower of Babel in front of Kal'tsit, from the time Safar came into contact with the isolation layer to the time Ernst and others arrived and knocked down Safar.

This cannot be faked. Kal'tsit is not a fool, and neither is Typhon. Information contaminated by evil spirits will produce garbled characters, incorrect word order, incomprehensible emoji symbols, etc., which can be seen at a glance.

But Kristen still got a second-hand version of the recording.

It was not because she restored the deleted file, but because the file was not included in the list of files to be destroyed.

She had hidden something, which was the recording of Kal'tsit and Typhon cleaning the building after the matter was resolved.

[“Oh yeah, I picked this thing up when I was disinfecting the front of the top passage. It was still making sounds over and over again, and I thought it could still be used, so I disinfected and poisoned it, and then I picked it up.”]

These were Typhon's original words. It was after hearing these words that Christen suddenly realized that although the original recording was in Ernst's hands and the file recording the scene when Safar first heard the recording had been deleted, there was still a file that existed. That was the second-hand recording of the recording played during Typhon's disinfection!

Kristen suddenly remembered a joke from Colombia

——If I die, before I die, I must completely format my phone and never let anyone see my browsing history!

It's just a joke. How can I delete all the browsing history?

In modern society, information is leaked all the time without anyone noticing.

"Thanks, Saria."

Kristen suddenly thanked him.

Saria was a little surprised: "What is there to thank you for?"

Kristen smiled slightly:

"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to leave Kjerag so easily."

Ernst was a careful and meticulous person. He might not have realized that there was something wrong at the time, but it was hard to say that he would not have discovered something over time. As for Kelsey, although Kristen had not had much contact with her, her intuition told her that she was not someone who could be easily fooled.

If you want to hide something under the noses of these two people, the most taboo thing is not poor acting skills or rough details, but four words - the longer the night, the more dreams you have!

"What did you use me for?"

Saria raised her eyebrows and asked suspiciously.

Kristen smiled slightly and didn't intend to say anything.

If nothing goes wrong, when she returns to Colombia with the recording, she will be able to spend a large sum of money to recruit all the linguists in the world to translate the text of the recording!

What? Where does the huge sum of money come from?

It's okay, as long as Justin initiates the remittance, everything will be fine.

However, as everyone knows, it is absolutely impossible for no accidents to happen on the land of Terra.

The next second, Saria stepped on the brakes directly, allowing Christen to experience the feeling of losing weight and flying out in advance by emergency braking.

She pulled up the handbrake and looked at Kristen, who was holding onto her seat belt in shock, with a cold face:

"Kristen, what are you trying to do?"

"I just feel like something is wrong with you this time. Have you ever been so easy to give in in the past?"

Saria smacked her lips.

"I thought you might be... Tsk, I really thought too much! Now, tell me! This time, I won't let you fool me anymore!"

Kristen blinked, obviously not expecting such a big reaction from Saria.

Didn’t he just secretly take a piece of information away? Saria didn’t even know what it was. Was it that serious?

When did you become so close to Ernst? How many times have you met?

This is the misunderstanding of genius.

In Christen's eyes, Saria and Ernst were at most friends, because she had never really cared about the Rhine Life company.

As for Saria, she has been conscientiously cleaning up Rhine Life for several years, and last year and this year, she took over the management of the company for a year instead of Kristen, the hands-off boss. Her love for Rhine Life can only be described in one sentence: great, no words needed!

And Ernst was the one who saved Rhine's life once.

While Kristen was still watching the giant beast of burden baring its teeth in Kjerag, Ernst was fighting alongside them in the Fire Demon Project, taking on the military, confronting the Fire Demon, bringing in Vice President Wilson, blocking the terrifying pink-haired Sarkaz, and protecting Rhine's life!

Saria owes Ernst a favor.

As a close friend of Kristen, she knew very well that Kristen often did things without considering human feelings.

Therefore, she had to remind Christen that at least she couldn't let Ernst down!

"Hey! Saria, listen to me, it's really nothing, can we reconcile?"

"reconciliation?"

Seeing that Kristen didn't explain clearly, Saria simply said directly:

"If you don't tell me, I'll drive back to Kjerag and ask Ernst and the others."

Christen opened her mouth. After decades, she suddenly found herself weak, pitiful and helpless in front of this Vaifan.

No one in the office was there to arm Saria, and no one from Shelagernst was there to help mediate the fight. It seemed like she really couldn't do anything about Saria.

With a somewhat aggrieved sigh, Kristen handed the USB drive to Saria;

"This is it."

"There was a recording inside that neither Ernst, Levi, nor I had been able to translate, so I wanted to take it back to Columbia."

"Ernst agreed?" Saria went straight to the heart of the matter.

"Of course... no."

"Then it is forbidden to publish it to the public, and it is not allowed to be shared privately either."

Saria said, and put the recording away directly.

"It is our responsibility to protect the privacy of our partners. Commander, you should read the employee code of conduct of Rhine Life when you go back."

Kristen's expression was a little confused.

Who am I, where am I, what do I do?

Why should I open champagne at halftime if I'm fine?

Also, Saria, you with thick eyebrows and big eyes, how come you also betrayed the revolution?

Fortunately, this process did not last too long.

In just a few days, when the Rhine Life convoy arrived near Columbia, Christen received an email on the communicator connected to the nearby intercity network signal.

To 【Christen】

From【Kekaoke-Mariam (don’t call me Mary when you are working)】

Attachment: [Unknown signal]

[The base station set up by the Science and Technology Research Institute in the suburbs received a group of unknown signals. The signal appeared almost at the same time as the Star Picking Plan, and appeared again two days later with the same frequency. The Science and Technology Research Institute is trying to track it, but none of the equipment we have currently called upon can accurately locate it. ]

[Does Rhine Life not even have a manager? Where did you and Saria go? I came back to apply for equipment and funds, but I have to report to Ferdinand. Oh my god, is this serious? Has Rhine Life been swallowed up by that guy? ]

[If you are still alive, please come back soon. I will regrettably lose the signal.]

[PS: Remember to approve the funds and equipment. ]

PS: There are a lot of things to explain in the recent update, such as Fei Tian and the Preserver on the Rhine side, the Duke and Londinium on the Victoria side, the Behemoth on the Yan side, the follow-up of the Star Picking Plan, the preview of the World Summit, etc. So it seems that the scene switching may be more frequent. Some readers have said that it is not good, and I am helpless and can only apologize. Because I suffered a loss in the last time when I wrote the Ers chapter without explaining the cause and effect, so I try to write every place in detail. In addition, my hands hurt, so the update will be slower. Please bear with me.

Chapter 345: The Preserver's Prayer

Tremont, Columbia.

As a unique scientific research enterprise in Colombia, Rhine Life has established ten major departments, which are coordinated by the general construction department and divided into five scientific research departments and four affairs departments.

There is no need to say much about the affairs department: Business Department, Defense Department, Engineering Department, and Human Resources Inspection Department, covering the basic business required for the normal operation of a large enterprise.

The core of Rhine Life is, of course, the five major scientific research disciplines: structure, energy, source stone life, ecology, and scientific investigation.

Yes, although it is counterintuitive, the scientific investigation department is actually divided into the scientific research department. Rhine Life, or the entire Terra, seems to have tacitly accepted that scientific research is a discipline that can not only rely on climbing the technology tree by itself, but also directly "look for dragons and gold by looking at the winding mountains, each winding is a level of difficulty", and make a fortune by shoveling the ground with a Luoyang shovel and making a fortune through archaeology.

Rhine Life is one of the largest companies in Colombia and even in the whole world. The threshold for entering it is undoubtedly daunting for many people.

It is no exaggeration to say that at Rhine Life, if you call out "Doctor", 100 out of 99 people in a hall will turn around, and the remaining one who does not turn around may be called to the Human Resources Inspection Department to have an interview with Ms. Yara the next day because of walking in with his left foot. That scene is just like walking down the street and calling out "Zhang Wei".

However, even with such strict standards, there are still exceptions.

Yes, it’s still science and technology.

Mariam, the director of the scientific research department, does not have any restrictions on academic qualifications in his recruitment requirements for his employees, but rather places more emphasis on "practical experience". In other words, he has no interest in college students who are spotless, but instead prefers "professionals" in the industry.

As for whether your major is a good major or a bad major, he doesn't care that much.

This undoubtedly gave many [Diggers] some hope. There has always been a rumor circulating in the market that the Rhine Life Science Research Institute is the base camp of Terra's tomb robbers.

But this is just a rumor, of course.

Director Mariam advocates "making the best use of everything", but he does have a bottom line. Most of his subordinates are normal people with an exploratory spirit like Magellan. But this does not prevent him from becoming Ferdinand's target.

"Why didn't you approve the funds and equipment Mariam requested?"

After returning to Rhine Life, Christen immediately found Ferdinand and questioned him in a rather dissatisfied tone.

Ferdinand answered honestly and with a clear conscience:

"Kristen, the scientific expedition department has not made any achievements for a long time, but the funds consumed are increasing year by year. The equipment in the areas they explore needs to be specially customized, and almost all of them are disposable. This is simply an uneconomical investment. Many times, I suspect that we are just spending money to support Mariam to play his wilderness survival games in various places on Terra."

He curled his lips and looked at Kristen, even daring to accuse her directly:

"I know what you're going to say. [It takes time to produce and verify scientific results], right? Humph, if it were in the past, Rhine Life could provide Mariam with this not-so-big expense. But, Christen, this is up to you!"

"Blame me?" Christen was slightly stunned.

Ferdinand nodded in affirmation:

"It's your fault! Because of the mess you made in Kjerag, Rhine Life is in chaos now."

Kristen retorted: "But I heard from Justin that Rhine Life is not short of funds now. We have many new investors."

Ferdinand sneered:

"Yes, we are indeed not short of money, but we are short of people."

"The heads of the research department, except Parvis and me, all went to Kjerag. The heads of the affairs department, except Justin and Yara, all went to Kjerag as well. There are almost no more people in the Rhine Life headquarters than in Kjerag. All departments are basically at a standstill. The pile of things is higher than a mountain. Why don't you sort out the internal affairs first and continue to invest money in new projects?"

"I dare say this is a losing business!"

What Ferdinand said actually makes sense.

Money alone is useless. No matter how much money you have, you still need people who know how to use it. Rhine Life is in chaos now. Almost all departments are contributing to Christen's star-picking plan. The top priority should be to restore order.

Otherwise, it would be like a moron with uncoordinated limbs holding the money, which would just be a waste of funds.

There is an example of this. A company known for its internal divisions and factions claimed to have received 300 million in investment from Fujiko. However, the things it produced could not be said to satisfy everyone, or at least it could be said that no one was satisfied.

The most famous statement of their producer is "I have plenty of time and resources to spend with players."

It can be seen that there is still too much money, so much so that even children with cerebral palsy can have such confidence.

"Kristen, if you really don't want to do this anymore, you can just hand over the position of general manager to me. I can sort everything out in a few months."
