Wanjie Shop 37 "Help, Xiaoxi!"...
In the teaching building, the children who had just finished their morning reading were listening to Xiguang's report in a daze.
A student who was rushing to correct the mistakes on yesterday's test paper suddenly crushed the plastic shell of his fountain pen.
He raised his head and looked blankly at the loudspeaker, then at the classmates around him.
They are a group of high school students with high hopes.
Although the future is confusing and we don’t know which will come first, death or tomorrow, but as the saying goes, as long as we are alive, we must learn until we die.
They must master more advanced knowledge in condensed textbooks as quickly as possible, and rush to transform themselves into the talents that the country currently needs most, just so that they can contribute their strength as soon as possible when a new life arrives one day.
During these eighty days, they studied and took exams non-stop, spending sixteen hours a day in the classroom and had already become numb.
Now Xiguang says that a new life has arrived.
Someone sniffed first, then low sobs and unbelievable murmurs were heard. Slowly, the sound became louder and louder, and finally merged into deafening cheers and hugs.
The teachers did not stop them, in fact they hugged the students as well.
Death and tomorrow, tomorrow comes first!
"Holiday!! Holiday!!!"
On the factory assembly line, workers who started work early numbly packed the fast-grown food from the farming area into boxes, preparing to clean and process it.
After hearing Xiguang's report, someone was stunned and dropped a whole box of food to the ground.
The supervisor stopped the machine, but instead of blaming the workers, he shouted, "It's over! It's really over!"
Everyone hugged each other and cried, or pounded the equipment around them, venting the fear and fatigue that had accumulated over the past eighty days.
On the street, the breakfast stall owners double-checked that they had heard correctly, then threw the dough in their hands onto the chopping board. Unable to hold back tears, they shouted, "All breakfasts are free today! All free!"
Without waiting for the leaders to say anything, the people had already started celebrating spontaneously.
The experts at the shelter center also started laughing when they heard the excited roars and cheers coming from outside.
As they laughed, they found their faces were covered with hot tears.
As core insiders, they knew better than anyone how lucky this victory was.
Did it really, really succeed?
…
Research base, conference hall.
Li Wangruo listened to Xiguang's report in a daze. Although red dots were still flashing on the holographic sphere, the deep red area representing the devastating impact had disappeared.
He took off his glasses with trembling hands and wiped his face hard, but he couldn't stop the tears from flowing.
"It worked...it really worked..."
He murmured, the great joy and relief almost overwhelmed him. He turned his head subconsciously: "Xi Heng, look, he succeeded..."
Li Wangruo suddenly stopped talking.
Fang Xiheng stood in front of the huge holographic sphere, watching quietly without any smile on his face.
Each shelter reported the good news to them through Xiguang, and Xiguang even captured some of the cheers in the scene to celebrate the success of their operation.
However, the cheers from all over the world seemed to have nothing to do with him, as if there was an invisible barrier between them.
After a while, Fang Xiheng finally said, "Xiguang, contact Xie Yunsui."
Xiguang paused for two seconds: "Sorry, I can't contact him."
Li Wangruo's heart sank suddenly and his joy cooled instantly.
If Xiguang was unable to contact Xie Yunsui before the super earthquake threat was officially lifted, it meant that Xie Yunsui was still trying to transfer underground energy. It was understandable that he could not be contacted because he was too busy, because the distance was too long and he was beyond Xiguang's detection range, or because... there were too many factors.
As soon as the mission is completed, with Xie Yunsui's ability, he should be able to contact Xiguang as soon as possible.
But why can’t I get in touch with him?
Li Wangruo's teeth chattered as he forced himself to remain calm and said, "Wait a little longer. He might be looking for a place with internet access."
Whether there is internet or not, the little bee can contact Xiguang.
As long as Xie Yunsui is still alive, as long as he releases the little bees, Fang Xiheng should have received his good news by now.
But no.
"Xiheng..." Li Wangruo walked forward with a hoarse voice. He wanted to say something nice, but he couldn't.
He did not study the Wanjie Shop thoroughly, but he knew that the Wanjie Shop did not have the ability to change the rules of the world. In this confrontation with the super earthquake, he could not guarantee that Xie Yunsui would still be alive.
Li Wangruo's lips were stretched straight, and he was about to say "My condolences", but when the words came to his lips, he looked into Fang Xiheng's eyes and swallowed them back.
Wait a little longer.
"I don't want to wait any longer." Fang Xiheng suddenly turned around. His voice was soft, yet it carried an undeniable firmness. "Academician Li, the crisis is over. My most important task now is to protect Xie Yunsui's safety."
Li Wangruo's heart skipped a beat: "You...what do you want to do?"
He wouldn't want to chase after Xie Yunsui, right?
Li Wangruo coughed and said hurriedly, "We still don't know whether he's dead or not. Don't be impulsive..."
Fang Xiheng blinked: "Ah, I don't want to commit suicide for love. I want to find him, to the place where he disappeared last."
Oh, I see.
Li Wangruo scratched his hair and said awkwardly, "Yes, we should go find him."
They were used to relying on Xie Yunsui, and always thought that Xie Yunsui would come back despite all difficulties, but they forgot that they could also take the initiative to welcome the hero home.
but……
"Xiguang traced back to when underground energy weakened, and there were still several strong earthquakes around the world. We can't be sure which one was caused by his transfer or the original crustal activity. Even if we narrow the scope to uninhabited areas, there are still three. The situation in uninhabited areas is complicated. It was difficult to survive before the earthquake, and it should be even more dangerous after the earthquake. It is very likely that extremely strong energy and geological activity will remain."
Fang Xiheng said calmly, "I know those places are dangerous. It is precisely because of the danger that I want to go there."
With Fang Xiheng's identity, any outbound activity had to be approved by his superiors. Li Wangruo saw that he couldn't persuade him, so he took the initiative to help him mediate.
While his application was still pending, Fang Xiheng came to the small balcony of the villa where Xie Yunsui often came out to get some fresh air.
This place has become his exclusive resting area. Whenever he feels upset, Fang Xiheng will accompany Xie Yunsui up here to look at the scenery of the motherland, and all the troubles seem to disappear.
Fang Xiheng stood alone on the small balcony, looking at the world in front of him that was in chaos due to the earthquake.
The city in the distance has become a ruin, with no tall buildings to be seen. Those places where protective shields were originally installed have lost their protective function because the energy has been exhausted and no one has replaced or maintained them.
The earth seemed to have been kneaded repeatedly by an invisible giant hand, leaving behind countless hideous cracks and undulations.
The once familiar scene became strange and desolate.
The low temperature cold wave seemed to slowly dissipate as the super earthquake was lifted.
Fang Xiheng stretched out his hand and found that the nine-year-long snowstorm had stopped.

"Mad man! Asshole shop owner!"
The little bee was smashing the wall frantically in the Wanjie Shop, trying to leave.
But the owner closed the passage for it to enter and exit freely, so it couldn't go out even if it wanted to.
The energy in the Wanjie Shop sometimes surged, and sometimes was drained away by the owner, repeating this over and over again. It couldn't even remember how many times it was drained away.
All I know is that after the last energy surge, there was suddenly no movement.
The energy was no longer being drained, and no new energy was being absorbed by the Wanjie Shop.
Everything is calm now.
But the owner didn’t come in!
The good news is that the Wanjie Shop was not ejected from this world, leaving any gaps in time and space, or suddenly bound to other shop owners, which means that the current owner is still Xie Yunsui.
But Xie Yunsui didn't respond to it, and the little bee was very panicked, fearing that a new store owner would suddenly appear in the next second.
Damn it, at least let it out!
Woohoo, it can't even contact Xiaoxi...
The little bee cried and struggled for a long time, and finally had to ask for help from the Wanjie Shop, trying to get the Wanjie Shop to open a back door.
There had been shopkeepers who had sought help from the Myriad Worlds Shop in times of crisis before, but had always been rejected. Little Bee didn't know if there was a rule in the Myriad Worlds Shop that forbade rescuing shopkeepers, so he had to frantically praise the shopkeeper's benefits: "Hey, hey, he's been seriously accumulating energy in every world, and even at this last moment, he's left a lot of energy for you. If you want energy, I can give you all the energy the shopkeeper gave me before. Just help me..."
It doesn't even require any other energy consumption, just remove the restrictions placed on it by the shop owner.
As long as he can open the access channel, he can contact Xiaoxi and send the owner back safely!
Little Bee: "Look, my previous shop owner was like a mad dog. Not only did he not collect much energy, he also got you into a space-time rift and nearly ran you out of energy and destroyed you. What if the next shop owner is the same..."
Wanjie Shop: [Unlocked.]
Little Bee: "Huh?"
…
Fang Xiheng was flying a fighter jet hovering over the Yana Trench, carefully searching the area.
The entire Chinese top leadership is very concerned about Xie Yunsui's whereabouts, so they are determined to find him at all costs.
Not only did they agree to Fang Xiheng's search and rescue plan, they also dispatched elite search and rescue teams to three uninhabited areas at the same time, and also sent people to other possible places.
Among the three uninhabited areas, Fang Xiheng was most concerned about the Solar Trench, so this was the first choice for search and rescue.
All the nearby islands sank in the earthquake, and the waves surged, occasionally creating waves tens of meters high.
Occasionally, the corpses of rotten deep-sea creatures would surge up and be blown away by the waves. Fang Xiheng didn't dare let any of them go. He had to make sure that Xie Yunsui was not among them before he would fly to the next place.
No, no, and still no.
The entire sea area has been thoroughly checked.
Fang Xiheng gave the order with a cold face: "Prepare the deep-sea boat."
"receive."
The voice of Xiguang in the headphones was always cold and indifferent. Suddenly, a strange electric current passed through, and the familiar sound of a little bee rushed into his ears.
"Help, Xiaoxi!"
Fang Xiheng concentrated, his eyes flashing with surprise: "Tiantian, coordinates."
Following the longitude and latitude coordinates sent by the little bee, he flew over at an accelerated speed and collided head-on with Youyou who had jumped out of the water.
When the three-meter-tall robot saw Fang Xiheng, it stopped flying and carefully opened his chest and abdominal cavity, revealing Xie Yunsui, who had his eyes closed and was only breathing his last breath.

The author has something to say: A small drama about the backdoor of Wanjie Shop:
"The Wanjie Shop?"
A pink and chewy tentacle picked up an unusual energy message and received the old employee's request for help.
"Ahaha, no, that's not possible. He hasn't passed the test of his native world, so he can't get any special treatment. Shopkeepers change over time, and if this one is gone, there will always be another one. Oh dear, go find the next one. I'm very busy."
The small tentacle flicked the energy thread that was sent to it, deflecting it.
The next second, the energy thread came over again, and an information bar popped up in front of the tentacle.
"I don't care about the shop owner you're binding with this time. The energy you're collecting isn't that great, no wonder you haven't come back in so long. Haha, even if you dodge me, I won't... Is this merit serious? You're cheating for him, right?!"
The small tentacles transformed into millions of energy threads, traced the energy source of the Ten Thousand Worlds Shop, and stared at the human lying in the dark deep sea for a long time.
"Saving the world? That's not surprising. What's surprising is that there are actually people who are willing to give up everything and fight against the laws of the world, haha."
"As for this merit...it's not impossible to relax the conditions. Anyway, I'll help you this time."
The Wanjie Shop, which had just asked the main system for help, turned around and said coldly: It has been solved.
