Chapter 54 Train No. 0, the Moving Fortress
When Lin Jianguo carried Zhao Di and stepped onto the carriage of that black train for the first time, he was completely stunned.
This doesn't look like a train carriage at all.
This is clearly a mobile steel fortress.
The floor, walls, and even the ceiling of the carriage were all made of thick steel plates, which made a dull "thump-thump" sound when stepped on.
The seam at the joint was welded so tightly that not even a needle could be inserted.
The car window was small, fitted with ridiculously thick glass. Lin Jianguo tapped it with his finger and felt it was even sturdier than the observation window of a tank.
This is bulletproof.
It's absolutely top-level bulletproof!
Lin Jianguo served in the army his whole life, so he has some insight.
"Platoon Leader Lin, this way please."
A captain in a black combat uniform with a stern face led the way.
On his arm was an armband that Lin Jianguo had never seen before; it was a sharp sword that pierced through the darkness.
This is a special operations unit from Beijing, specifically responsible for the security of "Train No. 0".
Lin Jianguo, carrying his daughter, followed the captain through several train carriages.
He saw that anti-aircraft machine guns were mounted at the connection between the carriages!
The dark muzzle of the gun exuded a chilling murderous aura.
On the roof of the vehicle, there appeared to be even heavier weapons covered by a canvas, but they were not clearly visible.
Every five meters along the corridor stood a sentry armed with a gun.
They stood ramrod straight, their eyes sharp as eagles, vigilantly scanning every corner.
The entire train was filled with an extremely somber atmosphere.
This is even more extravagant than escorting a high-ranking official!
Lin Jianguo's heart grew heavier and heavier.
He knew that the country had pulled out all the stops to save its daughter.
This kindness is too heavy.
It was so heavy that he couldn't breathe.
"We've arrived. This is the medical vehicle."
The captain pushed open a heavy, soundproof door.
The scene inside once again made Lin Jianguo and Chen Zhiyuan, who was following behind, gasp in shock.
This carriage has been transformed into a top-notch intensive care unit.
Various unheard-of medical instruments shimmered with a soft light.
A faint smell of disinfectant filled the air.
Several top pediatric experts who flew in overnight from Beijing were already waiting here.
Upon seeing Zhao Di, they immediately surrounded her and began a thorough examination.
"Put the child on this bed. It's a specially designed shock-absorbing bed that can filter out 99% of the vibrations from the train."
"This is what Academician Li, who is leading the team, instructed."
Lin Jianguo carefully placed his daughter on the bed.
The mattress was as soft as a cloud, and Zhao Di's small body sank into it, seemingly feeling much more comfortable; even her tightly furrowed brows relaxed a bit.
Chen Zhiyuan, however, was drawn to the equipment on the other side.
It was a huge computer, with countless streams of data that he couldn't understand flashing across it.
"This is...this is a real-time vital signs monitoring and data analysis system."
A young doctor explained.
"It can monitor all data of the target 24 hours a day without interruption, and conduct cloud analysis and risk warning."
Chen Zhiyuan was stunned.
Cloud-based analytics? Risk alerts?
What kind of amazing technology is this?
He felt like a primitive man who had just emerged from a cave.
Just then.
Zhao Di, lying on the bed, seemed to have recovered a little.
She looked around the new environment with curiosity.
In her little world, it was like a fun cave.
There are lots of sparkly lights, and lots of toys that make a "beep beep beep" sound.
In my mind, that familiar voice rang out at just the right moment.
However, he sounded weak and listless, as if he hadn't eaten enough.
[Ahem... Host, how are you feeling?]
It's System Uncle!
Zhao Di cheered inwardly.
Uncle didn't run away!
[This system is almost out of energy trying to save you; it's now in energy-saving mode.]
The system sighed, its voice weak.
However, since you've shown some promise, this system will give you a little extra help.
[New mission released: A Journey of Self-Cultivation.]
[Task objective: Before reaching the destination, complete one hour of the "building block" game each day to repair damaged neural connections in the brain.]
[Mission Reward: Body Enhancement Potion (Minor Version), which can accelerate the recovery of bodily functions.]
Building blocks?
Zhao Di's eyes lit up.
Her favorite thing to do is play with building blocks!
"Father..."
Zhao Di stretched out her little hand and pointed to a pile of bottles and jars on the table next to her.
"Building Blocks……"
"I want to play with building blocks..."
Lin Jianguo was taken aback. What time is it? He's still thinking about playing around.
But looking at his daughter's expectant eyes, he couldn't bear to refuse.
As long as she still has the energy to play, that's a wonderful thing.
He turned around to look for Chen Zhiyuan, but found that Old Chen was hunched over the computer, having a lively discussion with several young doctors, like a studious student.
Lin Jianguo had to do it himself, taking out the gear building blocks that Qian Lao had given him from his backpack.
When Zhao Di got the building blocks, she immediately forgot that she was a patient.
She leaned against the bed, holding two gears in her small hands, carefully fitting them together.
“Clatter.”
A soft sound.
The two gears meshed perfectly together.
His focused expression amazed Academician Li, who was standing next to him.
"This child... is truly a genius."
"Even though he's so sick, his logical thinking is still so clear."
The train slowly started moving without anyone noticing.
There was no long whistle, and no violent shaking.
It was so stable, like it was floating on water.
This steel behemoth, carrying the nation's highest hopes, quietly departed from the Gobi Desert where it had been built up over nearly a year.
Heading towards that distant, unknown south.
The scenery outside the window began to slowly change.
The desolate yellow sand was gradually replaced by scattered patches of green.
A massive life-saving relocation spanning thousands of kilometers has officially begun.
But crisis, like a venomous snake lurking in the shadows, quietly reveals its fangs.
