142 Lu Yao
Not too safe for you
Zhu Ning went downstairs and returned to her home. Lin Xiaofeng was already asleep. Because she was a transparent person, she was afraid that others would not be able to find her, so she wore a nightcap when she slept at night.
From Zhu Ning's perspective, there was a bulge in the quilt, and a rabbit-shaped nightcap on the pillow.
And...quite cute.
The two of them spent very little time together. Fortunately, Song Zhizhang was there to accompany her, otherwise Lin Xiaofeng would be so bored being alone at home.
Zhu Ning leaned against the door and looked at Lin Xiaofeng. To be honest, she didn't fully understand it at the moment.
Mother Wei has seen two Zhu Nings.
How is the so-called restart achieved?
Generally speaking, in time-travel novels, when people from another world travel back, their first priority is to pretend to be the original owner, so as to avoid being discovered and treated as heretics by the natives.
Zhu Ning didn't understand whether he had traveled through time, but the information left by this body was incredible.
For Zhu Ning, is this survival difficulty too high?
Does she need to play the role of a big boss behind the scenes?
Zhu Ning raised his hand and looked at his arm. His arm had been broken before, with the bone piercing through the flesh, leaving a scar, like a stitched doll.
There was blood under her skin, and bones underneath, and it was confirmed that there were no wires.
Does she have gears and wires in her head, too?
Zhu Ning can use metal manipulation to fight against the red tentacles. Can he use it to explore himself?
She closed her eyes and tried to sense her own brain. Her talent for metal manipulation instantly unfolded, and the entire room was under her perception.
She could feel the air conditioner in the living room, the metal table lamp, the chandelier on the ceiling.
But she couldn't sense her own brain because it was wrapped in something?
Zhu Ning thought of his previous communication with the red tentacle and saw its memory. It was originally a black cube with a very smooth surface.
Zhu Ning used a dentist's electric drill to open a small hole, and stuffed enough explosives to blow up a thirty-story building into it to create a crack.
Is Zhu Ning's brain defense so high?
Zhu Ning took out a gear from the blank card. There was an Alpha symbol engraved on it. If he was in the same series as it, it would have the same structure as Zhu Ning.
Zhu Ning thought of Chu Ling, who said that as long as she protected her brain, she could buy other mechanical prostheses for regeneration.
Theoretically, as long as Zhu Ning had a brain left, she wouldn't die, even if she hid herself in a card.
The powerful opponent he encountered was so strong that Zhu Ning couldn't even keep his head?
Zhu Ning used to think she was working for Prometheus, but now it seems she is working for herself.
She is her own boss and should think like a real boss.
Zhu Ning gently closed the door of Lin Xiaofeng's bedroom, opened his secondary brain, and sent a message to Liu Niannian: "I need your help with something. Let's talk in person."
She needs to continue digging for the truth. The current progress in finding the truth about death is only 70%, and she still has 30% of the information unclear.
Liu Niannian was not at the deputy head's side, and it took fifteen minutes before he replied, "Okay, boss!"
Zhu Ning put on a coat and walked out quietly, planning to talk to Lin Xiaofeng tomorrow.
…
A high-end residential building in District 103.
The Lu family's base is not here. Liu Niannian bought a mansion here to support his dream of adventure.
The information had been entered before, and the security guard let her in very smoothly.
A supercar was parked downstairs, and Pei Shu was waiting for her in the car. "Hello, Miss Zhu."
Zhu Ning greeted him: "Hi, Teacher Pei."
Pei Shu was obviously not Zhu Ning's teacher, but he was almost used to being called that by Zhu Ning.
Pei Shu: "Come in and wait for her. She can't see you now."
As expected, she is a first-class citizen lady, and she still needs to wait for a table to meet him.
Looking at it this way, this wealthy neighborhood looks a little different today. There are three or four more cars parked nearby, and their engines have just been turned off. Has someone found Liu Niannian first?
In contrast, the red supercar Pei Shu was sitting in looked a bit unremarkable. When Zhu Ning opened the door and got in, he thought he was seeing things.
Zhu Ning: "What are you doing?"
Pei Shu: "Knitting."
Pei Shu was sitting in a sports car, knitting a sweater with black wool in his hand.
Of course Zhu Ning could recognize that this was knitting, but for a moment he didn't know what to say. Why was the grumpy Pei Shu knitting in private?
Zhu Ning: "No, I mean, is this your hobby?"
Pei Shu: "My psychiatrist said that handicrafts are good for my physical and mental health."
Zhu Ning: “…”
Zhu Ning hadn't quite understood Pei Shu before, but she'd been outside the Great Wall and seen the world, which meant chaos and disorder. Now she could completely understand. If Pei Shu had lived outside the Great Wall for years, he'd be a miracle man if he hadn't suffered a mental breakdown.
Is he still receiving psychotherapy?
Pei Shu: "Have you finally figured out the deal with the young lady?"
Zhu Ning has "fallen" and started doing business with capitalists. The next step may be to become a running dog of capitalists.
Zhu Ning: "Yes, I must bow to the capitalists."
Pei Shu smiled: "You came at an unfortunate time. Wait a minute, her brother will be here."
Zhu Ning was stunned. Liu Niannian's brother was Lu Yao? He actually came to District 103 in person. Sure enough, what the news said was true. He doted on his sister.
Now that Lu Yao is here, Zhu Ning of course needs to step back.
Zhu Ning: "What are you doing here? To take her back?"
Zhu Ning had read too many different books before, all of which were about the feuds between wealthy families, and they all wrote about the unruly and willful eldest daughter who would eventually be caught by her family.
Pei Shu: "Yes, the Lu family feels it's unsafe here."
Zhu Ning wanted to laugh when he heard this. It turned out that the chaebols were the most sensitive. It was like when two countries went to war, the businessmen ran the fastest. They must have received the news in advance and evacuated all their property in time, including Miss Liu Niannian.
Zhu Ning was not sure that District 103 would be destroyed before, but now he is sure that all the Lu family members will run away.
It would be safer for Liu Niannian to return to the Kingdom of God.
Zhu Ning felt the gap between himself and first-class citizens. First-class citizens crushed other citizens in all aspects, not only in terms of wealth and status, but also in terms of information.
Rich people can know the news in advance and make plans to protect their own interests, but poor people don’t even know how they died.
Zhu Ning looked up at the house. She still remembered the location of Liu Niannian's room, and also remembered the feeling of looking down from Liu Niannian's house.
In a sense, that mansion was very close to the kingdom of God. She lived on a suspended island and could overlook Area 103.
Zhu Ning looked at the bright light in Liu Niannian's house and said, "I went outside the wall this time."
Pei Shu asked as he crocheted a sweater, "How is it?"
Zhu Ning retracted his gaze: "What can I do?"
Pei Shu looked at her: "You seem quite calm. When did you go?"
Zhu Ning: "Five days."
When she recalled it, it was quite strange. It actually happened five days ago. In five days, she entered two polluted areas, a deserted village and a company.
Zhu Ning looked at Pei Shu's expression and said carefully, "Something strange happened."
Pei Shu continued knitting and asked, "What's so weird?"
Zhu Ning couldn't reveal the secrets of the mission, so he casually said, "I saw something weird, and I keep having nightmares after coming back."
clatter--
The knitting needle in Pei Shu's hand hit the car door with a dull thud. "What's all this nonsense?"
Zhu Ning pretended to think, "I went to a village where a family was worshipping a statue. After watching it, I couldn't even remember what it looked like. It was like it was etched in my mind."
Zhu Ning's words were very contradictory. Sometimes she said she didn't know what it looked like, and sometimes she said it was like it was engraved in her mind. It was indeed true for her. As soon as she closed her eyes, she could think of the outline of a statue, but as time went by, the details could no longer be seen clearly.
Pei Shu's body was a little stiff, and his eyes narrowed, as if he remembered something.
Pei Shu: "And then?"
Zhu Ning: "No, I'm just a garbage collector. I'm not responsible for the rest of the story. I keep having nightmares when I come back."
Zhu Ning was lying with her eyes open. She always had good sleep quality and never had nightmares. But there was some truth in it. After she saw the statue, her brain system twitched.
Pei Shu: "Next time you see it, go around it."
Zhu Ning: "Why?"
Pei Shu: "What about getting my hands on me for free?"
Since knowledge has become paid, Zhu Ning always tries to take advantage of Pei Shu by asking him questions whenever he catches him.
Zhu Ning: "Yes."
Pei Shu laughed when he heard this. How could it be so direct? Bai Zao admitted it immediately.
Pei Shu stopped knitting and lit a cigarette. His special ability was fire, and the cigarette butt automatically ignited. After lighting it, he asked, "Do you want one?"
It is normal for many demon hunters to smoke and drink to relieve the pressure of life. Zhu Ning thought of Huo Wenxi, who must be under a lot of pressure as well.
Zhu Ning instinctively refused: "My job doesn't allow it."
Pei Shu: "Why, are you an athlete?"
After Pei Shu said this, he felt that it was not good to let Zhu Ning smell the cigarette, so he put out the cigarette directly.
He knew that people like Zhu Ning didn't smoke or drink, and always had to ensure their health was in top condition, so he had to respect other people's habits.
Pei Shu was silent for a moment, then asked, "Do you think there are gods in this world?"
Zhu Ning was just asking casually, but she didn't expect Pei Shu to actually talk to her about this topic. Teacher Pei really answered every question.
Zhu Ning had discussed this issue with Huo Wenxi before, and he replied, "I think there are pollutants at most."
"Clever," Pei Shu continued, "What if someone worshipped pollutants as gods?"
Zhu Ning didn't discuss this with Huo Wenxi, and asked, "Is worship useful?"
Pei Shu, please don’t say that the more people believe in it, the stronger it will be, right?
Pei Shu: "You have spiritual value, and pollutants can reduce your spiritual value. Aliens feed on fear. Demon hunters enter polluted areas to eliminate the so-called resentment of the pollution source."
Pei Shu has always been inspiring and concise. This time he spoke a lot in one breath: "Our world is built on the spiritual world. What do you think?"
Zhu Ning nodded. That was the theory.
Pei Shu: "What if this thing requires sacrifice?"
Zhu Ning fell silent. A group of humans offering sacrifices to a pollutant? What sacrifices? Living people?
This thing is unbelievable to Zhu Ning, but for believers, what if it is true?
Considering the mess that Bao Ruiming made with the mechanical aquarium that day, is the Yongsheng Pharmaceutical Fund really holding a sacrifice?
After Pei Shu finished speaking, the car fell into silence. He always stopped at the point and gave Zhu Ning room to digest the information.
After a while, Zhu Ning asked in a low voice, "What's the most terrifying pollutant you've encountered?"
Pei Shu did not answer this question. Zhu Ning's previous questions were all accurate, but this question was very general, which meant that Zhu Ning had obtained some information, but she did not want others to know, so she asked the question in a roundabout way.
Pei Shu: "What happened to you again?"
Zhu Ning originally wanted to ask if there was a pollutant that could reverse time, but told Pei Shu that it was too risky.
So Zhu Ning just said, "Just asking."
Pei Shu didn't believe it at all, but he didn't expose it. "Pollutants, what I encountered might be worse than you think."
Pei Shu touched his brow and recalled the past. The pollutants outside the wall would make people tremble. In front of it, you would feel the insignificance and impermanence of life. Human beings could be wiped out in the blink of an eye.
Time, space, memory, perception, outside the wall, primitive pollutants can deprive us of everything.
Pei Shu didn't want to recall that past.
Zhu Ning was about to ask more questions when she heard footsteps. Before she could see what was happening, she heard Pei Shu lower his voice, "Miss Zhu, put on your hat."
Zhu Ning hesitated for a moment, but even though Pei Shu didn't explain anything, he still put the button on.
The hood of Xu Meng's sweatshirt is very big. When she puts it on, it covers most of her face, leaving only her chin.
Pei Shu didn't get out of the car, but he sat up and blocked Zhu Ning with his body.
Pei Shu blocked Zhu Ning so tightly that outsiders could only see that there seemed to be another person in the passenger seat and nothing else could be seen clearly.
Zhu Ning had a God's perspective. She saw several men walking out of the residential building. They were bodyguards carrying heavy firearms. Some of them could be seen to have undergone prosthetic modifications with the naked eye. It was estimated that some of the bodyguards were people with special abilities.
The man surrounded in the middle was wearing a black suit, a very expensive style. Even Zhu Ning, a poor man who didn't know the value of things, could tell that the man's pair of leather shoes was enough for an ordinary person's annual salary.
The man showed his side profile. He looked somewhat similar to Liu Niannian. Zhu Ning recognized him because he often appeared in advertisements and magazines.
That was the first time Zhu Ning saw him in person, Liu Niannian’s biological brother Lu Yao.
The current helmsman of Genesis Technology.
Lu Yao glanced in Pei Shu's direction, and Pei Shu nodded to him. There was no obvious master-servant boundary between them.
Lu Yao was very busy. He took a look and then looked away. Then he got on the flying car. Two minutes later, all these people had evacuated.
Only after the exhaust fumes from the car disappeared did Pei Shu relax, revealing Zhu Ning behind him.
Zhu Ning asked, "What are you doing?"
Pei Shu: "I think it's better if you don't let him see you. It's not safe for you."
Based on Pei Shu's understanding of Lu Yao, if Lu Yao met Zhu Ning, Zhu Ning would leave a mark in his mind.
To survive in front of these big men, all lower-class citizens are like cats and dogs that can be disposed of at will. The safest thing to do is not to leave any impression.
It would be best if he didn't see you at all.
Pei Shu got out of the car and held the door open, "Miss Zhu, you can come in now."
The author has something to say:
Ningning doesn't understand either. She's just as confused as the rest of us! Maybe you're smarter than her and know more than her. Relax, baby.
