Chapter 231: Love Technology
On the night news, another malicious assault was reported. Youxi paid special attention to the time and location.
It was the latest news of the night, and the location was in the Ferris wheel viewing pavilion of Longhu Park. Longhu Park was also one of the places she had listed as a landmark building.
Just like the subway assault reported last night, there was no mosaic video. The news anchor reported it in the simplest language, and the incident was over.
It felt like, in order to deal with the public who already knew about the two attacks, the details of the incidents were not told, the casualties were not detailed, and in the information age, not even a single video of the incident was released.
When the chaos on the subway just happened yesterday, she clearly saw several people holding up their phones to film.
But now, not only is there no video in the news, there is not even a single video leaked on the Internet. She recalled the people who were taken to the "Noai" company by bus yesterday, and felt that they were gathering people and taking them away in order to control the spread of the truth of the incident.
Are these people still in the "Noai" company building now? Can they still come out?
Does the official know the real reason for several injuries?
Why are these injuries previously reported as important news, but now ignored? It has only been a few days, and the official attitude has changed.
She remembered a sentence she had heard from somewhere: when the official suddenly began to blur the focus and whitewash the situation, it means that the situation has taken a sharp turn in an uncontrollable direction.
The mobile phone on the sofa beside her dinged lightly. This is the mobile phone she bought in Wukong City. There is an unread email in her mailbox. She clicked it and saw that it was an interview notice from "Noai" Technology Company.
It notified her to go to the "Noai" building for an interview tomorrow afternoon.
Sure enough, the reply notification came very quickly after submitting the resume, which indirectly shows that the company really has a great demand for security guards.
**
The next morning, Youxi changed into a light black hooded sportswear and went to the hair salon in the hotel building. She cut her long hair and changed it into a neat and refreshing short hair, and dyed her black hair into a dark chestnut.
She was cautious and used to it, so that her visible appearance must be completely different from the "disappearing girl" on the subway.
At 1:30 in the afternoon, she parked her car in the parking lot two intersections away from "Ruo Ai" Company and walked to the interview.
Although she had seen the pictures and video introduction of "Ruo Ai" Company on the Internet, after actually walking into the building, Youxi was still shocked. It is really impossible to imagine from the outside that the entire building is completely hollow from the first floor to the top 49 floors.
The hollow area at the bottom of the building is the largest, accounting for about half of the area of each floor. Starting from the eleventh floor, the hollow area is reduced by half every ten floors, and the hollow area of the last nine floors is like a long and narrow skylight.
When standing in the lobby on the first floor and looking up, people with good eyesight can see very high at once. The sunlight falls through the highest glass roof, and is repeatedly refracted through the glass fences in the hollow of each floor, finally forming colorful light spots like stars in the sky, which fill the tall and spacious lobby on the first floor.
She sat on the sofa in the waiting area and squinted her eyes for a moment, then someone came to inform her to go for an interview.
The interview was in the security room on the second floor. The inside and outside rooms were very large. There was also a spiral staircase leading upwards in the corner of the room. It looked like there was also a security room on the floor. The interview process was very simple. First, personal information was verified - face scanning.
It is worth mentioning that Youxi only knew the name and some basic information of this body after the first face scanning when entering Wukong City: Chen An, 22 years old, a college student who just graduated.
After confirming that there was no problem with the personal information, she entered the question-and-answer interview, which mainly asked some reasons for coming to "Ruoai" to apply for a security guard position. For this information, just make up a credible one.
She said that she came to Wukong City for tourism, but she liked it here very much and wanted to try to find a job. If she found one, she would live there for a long time. She has learned martial arts since she was young and has outstanding abilities in this area. "Ruo Ai" is the strongest company in Wukong City, and she hopes to become a member of "Ruo Ai".
The last level is the practical test.
The practical test room is semi-open, with one side of the wall all made of glass, so that the security guards who change shifts can see it.
You Xi took off her thick coat and focused on concentrating on all aspects of her physical fitness, suppressing her physical fitness from more than 9 times to about 1.5 times that of an ordinary person.
This stage of physical fitness can ensure that she passes the test smoothly, but will not be particularly conspicuous.
When she was taking the practical test, many security guards passing by the glass stopped in their tracks. There were also some female security guards in "Nuoai", some were tall and strong with tomboyish looks, some were petite with delicate looks, but there were not many who were so beautiful and well-proportioned, and also had great skills.
"Wow, this new girl is pretty good. She's so young and so skilled. She's very responsive!"
"That's right. Look at Uncle Qiu's face. It's rare that he looks so relaxed during an interview. He seems very satisfied with this new girl. Ah, I really hope I can work with her! I don't know if she has a boyfriend or what type of men she likes..."
A young boy said, patting the man who was standing quietly beside him, "Brother Xiang, what do you think?"
The handsome man narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze moving with the new girl mentioned by others: "Her skills are more than good..."
"The point is not the skills! Brother Xiang! Don't be so rigid, okay!"
Brother Xiang frowned slightly: "By the way, what's the new girl's name?"
"Ask me, I know. Her name is Chen An, Chen for morning and An for security guard. Doesn't it sound good? Hahaha..."
Brother Xiang: ...

Security work does not require any technical skills. On-the-job training is that the security captain spends half an hour explaining the work requirements and shift arrangements, and distributes security uniforms, and then lets her go to work directly.
She started work in the afternoon and was assigned to the middle shift, working from 10 p.m. to 11 p.m., a standard eight-hour work system. Her job is to patrol the building, because most people in the company start to get off work during this time period. They need to check each office one by one to see if the water and electricity are turned off, whether the windows and doors are closed, and whether anyone is stranded.
Of course, her current patrol area is limited to the tenth floor or below.
After seven o'clock, employees and ordinary scientific researchers in the "Ruoai" building go home after work one after another.
It is said that some senior researchers have their own lounge in the company, which is not only large but also very luxurious, with food, clothing and accommodation arranged in an orderly manner. When they are busy, they usually don't go home for several days and nights.
However, those are things for the upper floors, and Youxi can't go to those floors yet.
After eight o'clock, the lights in the building went out one by one, leaving only the dim lights for safe passage. The building that looked bright and transparent during the day became dark and quiet, like two different worlds.
Youxi could hear a lot of sounds, some people were continuing their conversations during experiments, employees who were forced to work overtime were complaining, security guards were discussing the order of night shifts, and those who were having office romances were hiding and making out...
But in this building, there were also many blind spots that her hearing could not reach. The ceilings, walls and even door panels in those places should have been made of very special materials, and the sound insulation effect was better than that of ordinary sound insulation boards.
The idea of using hearing to check the entire building was completely unfeasible.
At ten o'clock, Youxi followed another security guard to do the last patrol of the building, and then she could go off work after completing the handover task.
As the night drew to a close, the building became even quieter. When Youxi walked in the corridor of the hollow area, he could only feel his own shadow everywhere. That was the glass fence of the hollow area. The large transparent glass that reflected the sunlight during the day turned into mirrored objects that could reflect reflections at night.
Youxi slowed down two steps and followed the other security guard. While observing the reflection, he also paid attention to the other's emotional fluctuations.
In the empty building, their footsteps were clearly audible.
Then, in such a quiet space, Youxi heard the first breathing sound outside the glass fence.
There shouldn't be anyone there. They were now on the tenth floor. Outside the glass fence was the hollow area. No normal human being could be suspended in a place like that. But the breathing sound had followed them all the way.
You Xi did not stop, and at the same time suppressed the idea of going over to find out what was going on.
Going over to check might not necessarily catch the other party, but it would be equivalent to exposing her super five senses. In the current unclear situation, she decided to remain unchanged. If the other party was coming for her, she would definitely take action.
During the interview in the afternoon, she clearly heard someone outside the glass wall asking her name.
If it was an ordinary security guard, it would be fine, but the person asking her name was an experienced passenger who arrived on the same train as her, the handsome man she met yesterday.
When she patrolled to the seventh floor, the breathing sound disappeared.
After that, she completed the handover and ended the first day of security work.
You Xi changed back into her own clothes, picked up her backpack, walked out of the "Ruoai" building, and went to the parking lot two intersections away to pick up the car.
There is a 24-hour supermarket near the parking lot. She went in to take a look and decided to buy herself some snacks and drinks. She went to the parking lot to pick up the car first, and then drove the car to the entrance of the supermarket.
She bought two large bags of various meat shops, chicken wings, chocolate, cookies, chewing gum, spicy strips, and dried fruits.
There were also two large bags of drip coffee and O-fat candy. Thinking that coffee cannot be without milk, she swept away the few seven or eight bottles of fresh milk in the refrigerator.
After that, she went to find the cashier and asked him to bring two boxes of room temperature milk, two boxes of Coke, two boxes of milk tea, and two boxes of Fanta to her car.
After paying the bill, Youxi got into the car and started to leave while chewing cashews.
After a few intersections, she glanced at the rearview mirror and chose to turn right at the intersection where she should have turned left.
She knew that after turning right and driving for a while, she would pass a green park. There were no shops or residential buildings nearby, and the lights were dim. Most importantly, there was no surveillance nearby.
She slowed down a little after driving on this road, and soon, with a thump, something fell on the roof of her car.
It's coming.
You Xi slammed on the brakes and turned the steering wheel hard at the same time. The car drifted and turned on the empty road, and successfully threw away the object that fell on the roof of her car.
The object fell in front of her car. You Xi turned off the car, dimmed the headlights, and the light on the road suddenly became dim, but this did not affect her vision.
Right in front of the car, stood a slightly twisted figure, seemingly a person, but humans do not have such deformed limbs, and behind the other side, there seemed to be a pair of huge wings.
She felt as if she was being stared at by a wild beast.
Strong enemy!
You Xi got out of the car quickly, with an open multifunctional shovel in her hand.
She seemed to hear the other side's arrogant ridicule, and leaped up again to pounce on her at a very fast speed. She saw the other side's outstretched arm, the front part of which was a sharp claw.
She jumped sideways to avoid the other side's claws, and suddenly came behind the other side. The multifunctional shovel in her hand instantly turned into an unsheathed Tang sword.
Without any hesitation, she chopped at the wings behind the other side. With a swish, she cut off half of the wing membrane and the skeleton.
The other party screamed in pain, turned around and ran two steps, grabbed the front of the jeep, and threw it towards her.
Youxi did not avoid it, and put it into the space the moment it touched the jeep.
The other party was shocked: "How is it possible, how can the item slot fit into the car!?" He suddenly realized something: "Space! You have space!?"
There seemed to be something more in his voice that he was determined to get, and he rushed towards her again. Youxi smelled a little bit of a strange smell in the air, she held her breath, took out the [High Temperature Perfume], and sprayed it directly at the other party.
The [High Temperature Perfume] did not have time to adjust, and it sprayed the basic first level of flame at first. The other party was only forced back two steps before he rushed over again.
Youxi took advantage of this opportunity and adjusted the temperature to level five. Just as she was about to deal a fatal blow to the opponent, a short arrow shot out from the side and instantly hit the weirdo's neck. He choked twice in pain.
The flame of [High Temperature Perfume] also spurted out in the next second, and the extremely high temperature flame instantly surrounded the opponent.
Two seconds later, Youxi stopped the flame spraying, and the man had been burned into charcoal.
She was still alert, and after taking a few steps back, she began to breathe again, and at the same time nodded to the side: "Come out, you've been with me all the way."
The man walked out from the shadow of the tree upon hearing the sound. He was tall and straight. After pulling down the mask, his familiar facial features were revealed. He was indeed an experienced traveler who asked about her name in the company.
"His skill is to simulate a bat, which can fly short distances, hang, and track, and release poison gas at the same time. How much did you absorb?" The other party's eyes swept across her Tang sword and pink bottle, and there seemed to be worry in his voice.
"Basically, I didn't absorb it. I held my breath when I felt something strange." You Xi looked at him twice, and did not relax his vigilance because of the other party's attack.
If the other party really wanted to help, he would not have taken action after the man released the poison gas. He could have helped sneak attack from the beginning.
In the moment of hesitation between continuing to fight and leaving, You Xi's mobile phone placed close to her body suddenly vibrated.
She took two steps back again, checking while being alert to the opponent.
A new message appeared on the phone screen.
Congratulations on defeating the passenger Huang Zhong.
You can choose one of his resources:
① Ten items to carry, the items are: a box of water, a box of compressed biscuits, an axe...
② Tickets (one stop)
③ Skills (simulate bats, fly, hang, poison gas, claws. Effective time: 4 hours, cooldown time: four days. Note: This skill is special, and it is only valid for this stop after selection)
There are boxes with hooks behind each option.
Youxi is not interested in items. The skill of simulating bats will change a person's appearance, which is too disgusting, and the fighting power is not high, so in the end, she chose tickets.
The phone screen changed again at once.
Tickets have been selected.
Congratulations: The validity period of the ticket has been extended by one stop.
