Chapter 214 Deep Virtual 41
Because of the alien riot, the experimental area was temporarily closed and cleaned up by the logistics team. Xie Ning had a rare two-day holiday, so he took the opportunity to go back to the welfare home to see the director and investigate some things.
The weather has been terrible these past two days, with heavy rain. Xie Ning stood at the waiting point with a black umbrella, waiting for security to go through. There were also little robots wandering around selling snacks. The girl in front of Xie Ning bought two pieces of bubble gum.
A man suddenly bumped into her, and the girl looked annoyed. "There's a queue here, sir. You can't just bump into me because you think my legs are prosthetic and I don't feel pain. Have some manners, okay? You can't go this way."
The slightly overweight middle-aged man's face was somewhat stiff, as if he was angry. Facing the strange looks from those around him, he slowly lowered his head and walked towards the back of the line.
Upon seeing this, the girl snorted loudly, "I was wondering why she bumped into me, turns out she was trying to cut in line!"
Xie Ning glanced at it but didn't pay attention. She just lowered her head to reply to the director's message. The director was very happy to learn that Xie Ning was going back to the orphanage to see her and the children.
Previously, Xie Ning had not contacted the dean's mother proactively, nor had the dean bothered Xie Ning, after all, the child was grown up and she was busy with work.
Now, the two of them quickly became familiar with each other when they started chatting. It was mainly the director's mother who asked questions, and Xie Ning who answered. The questions were all about everyday topics such as how life was going.
In order to find out more information, Xie Ning gradually guided the dean's mother to talk about interesting things from her childhood.
"Xie Ning, Level 3 citizen, identity verification successful. Security check passed. Please proceed to station number three to board the train." The scanner was a small sphere suspended in the air, and the voice was an inorganic electronic tone.
The train was clean and spacious. Opposite Xie Ning was the girl who sold bubble gum. There was a small table in the middle, a two-seater, with a partition separating it from the next seat.
Next door was a four-person table, and the middle-aged man who had bumped into the girl was sitting right outside. Upon seeing this, the girl snorted loudly again, turned her head away, and looked at the colorful advertisements on the window instead.
The above is an advertisement for a portable projector. With a portable projector, you can take your electronic lover anywhere.
The girl looked away and, seeing Xie Ning staring intently, poked his arm with her pen. "Stop looking at that! I have a projector, look!"
That thing, about the size of a pen, is a projector, exactly the same as the one in the advertisement.
Seeing Xie Ning's shabby clothes and the fact that she didn't even have any jewelry, the girl revealed a knowing look, then slightly raised her chin, "This is the latest model projector, you can't afford it, can you? Just tell me where you bought your colored contact lenses, and I'll show you!"
Xie Ning was momentarily stunned, but still shook her head, "I wasn't wearing colored contact lenses."
"Impossible!" The girl suddenly leaned closer to look and saw that Xie Ning's amber pupils were as warm and natural as jade. They weren't wearing colored contact lenses. She was a little envious and wanted to buy a pair of amber colored contact lenses too!
"Fine, I'll show you anyway. Let me tell you, my push is the most, most, most handsome!" He took out a monocle from his pocket and was about to hand it to Xie Ning when he seemed to remember something and put it back. "I forgot, you don't need to wear glasses with this projector."
The girl was very enthusiastic, and Xie Ning didn't refuse her request. The journey was still long, and it would be nice to see something interesting.
The girl turned the projector to the side, and Xie Ning saw a long-haired man in ancient costume standing in front of her. His face was like jade, and his lead-gray eyes looked somewhat cold.
But when he looked at the girl intently, he seemed very gentle, rubbing her head and smiling warmly, "Aren't we home yet?"
"No, it will take another forty-five minutes."
The girl turned to Xie Ning and asked, "How is it? Pretty, right?"
"nice."
Xie Ning's affirmation made the girl even more proud, but she was also a little annoyed because she had forgotten to bring the motion sensor; otherwise, she could have hugged her lover.
Xie Ning wasn't very interested in this kind of electronic product, because the projector was one of Huarui's products, and its technological content wasn't very high by today's standards. Just as she was about to look away, she suddenly noticed that the middle-aged man who had bumped into the girl before getting into the car had a strange expression on his face.
His head was lowered, and his pale face was covered with bumps, as if something was inside, a strange sight.
"Get away from him!" Although Xie Ning didn't know what had happened to the man, her sixth sense made her instinctively move away.
The passengers sitting next to and opposite the middle-aged man were startled by Xie Ning's sudden outburst. Just as they were about to say something, they saw Xie Ning had already run to the train platform.
"Are you crazy?"
"Neuropathy."
Then, looking at the middle-aged man next to him, the passenger patted him on the shoulder and asked, "Hey buddy, what's wrong?"
"Moss, something's amiss over there. Please call the police immediately!"
"What is that? Why did you suddenly run away?" The girl, who was enthusiastically introducing her electronic lover to Xie Ning, subconsciously followed behind Xie Ning.
But she didn't look at the middle-aged man. When she turned around, she was so frightened that her legs almost went weak. No, her legs were mechanical, so they couldn't go weak.
"Holy crap, this is a monster!"
