Before he could think about it, someone pushed him hard from the back, forcing him to move forward, and his sight suddenly shifted away from the corner of the stage.
However, even though I didn't see the person, my heart was still beating wildly.
In the original owner's memory, Meng Sheng was a girl with strong learning ability but usually lazy.
During the year she spent with the team, she showed a state of having no desires or demands most of the time.
The original owner had heard Meng Sheng mention that she came from a wealthy family and had no shortage of money. She chose researcher as a career purely out of curiosity and had no other ideas.
If that’s the case, how could a researcher suddenly become a killer who shot and killed the chairmen of three major conglomerates?
Song Yue couldn't figure it out, and didn't want to think about it too deeply.
The characters in each world have their own backgrounds and secrets, and she can't be so idle as to explore every one of them.
After being pushed out of the conference hall by the crowd, Song Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The scorching temperature baked the ground hot, so she quickly stopped a taxi and got in.
But what she didn't know was that a pair of eyes were silently watching her through the window of the conference room.
Meng Sheng stood by the window, scoffing coldly. Then, turning back to Zhou Shuhan, whose face had already turned pale with fear, he said, "See, I wasn't lying to you. The research results belong only to you. Qiu Rongyao and Song Yue can't take them away. Of course."
She narrowed her eyes, half-smiling, and said, "If they try to steal it, I have my own ways to deal with it. Anyway, congratulations, Zhou Shuhan, on getting the highest-level purple crystal investment you've ever wished for. And I've also successfully completed my mission and can return home anytime."
Go home? Go back to Hammer's home!
Zhou Shuhan, who was slumped on the ground, was shaking like a sieve.
She had killed three people in a row, all of whom were chairmen of the most prestigious consortiums in the country. How could she even say "going home"?!
She was lucky not to be shot. What on earth was she thinking?
No, that's not right. He should be thinking about what to do with himself now!
If his team turns out a first-degree murderer, does his research still count? Will he still get the 100 million yuan?
Damn, Meng Sheng, this lunatic!
He was both afraid and angry. He raised his head and glared at Meng Sheng fiercely: "I don't care who you kill, but if you don't let me get the purple crystal investment, I will fight you to the death!"
Unfazed by Zhou Shuhan's warning, Meng Sheng shrugged, his expression remarkably cheerful. "Don't worry, I'll explain everything to the police. This is all my personal behavior and has nothing to do with the team."
What……
Zhou Shuhan moved his lips: "Are you serious?"
Meng Sheng chuckled: "Of course."
Her mission has been completed. After that, she can leave as long as the system completes the settlement. At that time, no matter how the police deal with the original owner, it will have nothing to do with her.
Thinking of this, Meng Sheng smiled even more cheerfully.
"Put down your weapons, raise your hands, and don't move!" A stern shout interrupted her thoughts.
Meng Sheng glanced at the policemen who surrounded him, his expression extremely calm.
She dropped the gun to the ground and raised her hands as she was told.
Click.
A pair of handcuffs were fastened firmly around her wrists.
The shooting happened so suddenly that those who escaped quickly spread the news.
"The chairmen of the three financial groups were all shot in the head! The scene was a mess. I barely managed to escape!"
"It's horrible. The ground is covered in blood. It's like hell!"
"I saw Brad's head was crushed, and his brains were all over the floor. I feel like vomiting just thinking about it..."
"Who on earth did this? How dare they openly challenge the power of the consortium?"
"Could it be a spy sent by the neighboring country of Star? Isn't their country the best at this kind of thing?"
"Who cares who the killer is? The biggest problem now is that all three chairmen are gone. What will happen to the Star Nation?"
…
The offline discussions quickly spread to the Internet. When Song Yue rushed back to the farm, he had already scanned most of the online posts.
Mr. Qiu and She Wen didn't know about the shooting case yet, so Song Yue briefly told them about it.
After hearing this, She Wen's eyes almost popped out: "Senior Sister Meng...why did she do this?!"
Song Yue shook her head: "I don't know either."
The dining room fell silent.
Suddenly, Elder Qiu spoke slowly: "Let's not talk about the reason for the murder first. Judging from the result, I think this is a good thing."
"Ah?!" She Wen was surprised and didn't understand why Mr. Qiu said that.
Mr. Qiu was thoughtful: "The Star Country has been controlled by the three major financial groups for too long. Some of the systems should have been changed long ago."
When these words came out, She Wen's face changed, and she lowered her voice and said, "Mr. Qiu, just say this here among us, but don't let anyone with ulterior motives hear it."
I've heard before that if anyone posts slanderous words about the three major conglomerates in public or on the Internet, they will be taken away immediately and disappear without a trace.
Mr. Qiu treated her well, and she didn't want anything to happen to him.
Naturally knowing that she was thinking about him, Old Qiu smiled and said, "I know."
The sudden shooting case only lasted for two days and was quickly overshadowed by new news.
#High temperatures sweep across the country! Will Xingguo become the second Sta?! #
#The number of people suffering from heat stroke continues to rise, please try not to go out! #
The high temperature finally spread from Star Country to Star Country. The summer that the citizens of Star Country had previously taken for granted now became a sickle that could take their lives!
The once bustling commercial street is now deserted except for the scorching sun and the shadows of buildings under the scorching sun.
People stayed at home and turned on the air conditioner to get through the day.
But you can only hide for a while, not forever. Soon the power station declared a state of emergency and adopted temporary power supply.
It's over 50 degrees Celsius, and you're not allowed to use electricity? How can this be tolerated?
People started cursing online, accusing the power station of making money in an unscrupulous way and being irresponsible. All these curses reached the ears of the power station owner.
"Let them curse!" The power station owner was no pushover. Seeing the overwhelming online comments, he was so angry that he turned off the last main switch and sneered, "The power reserve is already low, and these idiots are still lashing out. Fine, I'll just keep the last bit of power for myself today and see what you can do!"
Snap!
All electrical appliances in the city stopped running and the engines became silent in an instant.
The citizens in the city panicked and asked online what had happened.
"Didn't we agree that there was still reserve power? Why did it go out?"
"Turn on the main switch! We need electricity!"
"It's 51 degrees outside and 44 inside. Are you trying to heat us to death? Call us quickly!"
However, no matter how the citizens cursed, there was no movement at the power supply station outside the city.
Panic spread instantly, and some hot-tempered people rushed out of their homes in the scorching sun, saying that they would put a knife on the power station owner's neck!
This group of people did what they said. They drove their private cars out of the garage, ignited the gas, stepped on the accelerator, and sped out on the wide street.
However, not long after they drove out, they suddenly smelled a burning smell.
"Oh no, the car caught fire!"
A driver's heart trembled, and he lost his grip on the steering wheel, causing the tire to swing to the side and the whole car to crash into a lamppost with a bang!
Impact, high temperature, and gasoline combustion.
The private car quickly engulfed in flames. The driver screamed and tried to escape, but the car was deformed and the door could not be opened at all.
He thrashed desperately in the car, begging others to save him.
But who dares to save?
The fire could melt the metal shell of the car. The others were just naked bodies, and they would die if they went in!
Everyone was silent, watching the fire melt the cars and burn the people who were calling for help.
The cry for help stopped abruptly.
Every driver present was in a state of panic.
How confident are they that they can withstand the high temperatures of nature?
What do you think you are? An indestructible body?
Too naive! All it takes is a big fire and they will be burned to ashes like the people in front of them!
At this moment, no one dared to say anything harsh. Everyone quickly got into the car, turned it around, and rushed back at full speed.
Unfortunately, nature does not allow ignorant challengers.
The road and tires were burned, and the car was moving with difficulty.
The sun above continued to release high temperatures, and the cooling system in the car stopped with a click.
The drivers realized that they could no longer stay in their cars or they would be steamed to death.
But should they get off the bus? The ground temperature is so high, and there are no big trees on the street to provide shelter. They will still be sunburned to death, right?
What should I do? Should I stay or get off?
"Damn it, I don't believe it. I can't get home after just this short distance!" A driver got out of the car cursing and took the first step bravely.
Seeing this, the others gritted their teeth and got off the car as well.
Seven or eight people just walked there in silence.
Fortunately, there were some sheds on the street where they could stand and rest temporarily. After stumbling and falling, they finally returned to the community sweating profusely.
"Hahaha, I'm back!" The driver who got off the car first to test the water laughed loudly. Even though his face was sunburned, it couldn't hide the joy in his eyes.
The few people who followed behind also smiled with relief, saying that their buddy was a good leader.
However, at this moment, the laughing man suddenly stopped laughing.
"What's wrong, brother?" someone asked suspiciously.
The man seemed not to hear the questions from others. His pupils suddenly widened, and then he held on to the wall with his hands and spat out a mouthful of blood!
"Ah——!" The bystanders were startled and jumped away quickly.
The man looked at the blood on the ground and wanted to speak, but he couldn't.
He felt as if his whole body was being boiled. His heart, liver, spleen, lungs, mouth, nose, ears and eyes were all steaming, making it difficult for him to breathe.
“…Save me…”
Before he died, he uttered two words with difficulty, then his eyes widened and he fell to the ground with a thud.
The others looked at the big brother in shock, unable to believe that he had collapsed like that.
"How could it be... He's clearly back!"
"That's right, the sun's out, why is he still vomiting blood?!"
The man who fell to the ground seemed to sound the alarm for them, and everyone who had just relaxed became nervous again.
"Ah, look!" a sharp-eyed person suddenly screamed, "His skin! There are so many red spots!"
A disease called "erythema" spread rapidly.
It was at this time that the Singaporeans heard that this disease had already broken out in Ethiopia.
However, the latter was afraid to admit responsibility. When the president heard about this, he fled overnight and issued a strict order before escaping to completely block the erythema disease.
Therefore, it was not until more than a month after Song Yue arrived at the copy that the governments of various countries realized it.
In order to let everyone know about erythema, a famous Singaporean medical scientist posted a video online to explain that there is currently no cure for this disease and the disease develops very quickly. Basically, the virus will be produced if the body is exposed to direct sunlight for more than 10 minutes.
The virus will lurk in the human body for a period of time, ranging from a few minutes to a few days. Once the disease occurs, the patient is basically dead.
Therefore, citizens are strongly urged not to travel during the day.
Seeing this news, Song Wei's eyes dimmed. She lowered her head and tugged at her pants tightly: "So this is what Zhang Tong has..."
Fearing that she would fall into self-blame again, Song Yue put down her work, sat beside her, and said softly: "This is not your fault. We can't predict nature."
"Yeah, I know..."
Song Wei responded softly, and at the same time, an idea slowly formed in her mind.
After learning the basic situation of erythema disease, domestic citizens were somewhat frightened.
The water and power outages are already difficult enough, and now there’s a deadly erythema disease!
How can I survive like this!
The order in the city finally collapsed at this moment.
At night, the streets are no longer quiet.
People, either holding wooden sticks or kitchen knives and carrying bags, sneaked into the supermarket that had long been unattended and snatched goods.
Water is the first thing they consider, followed by foods that can be stored for a long time, such as biscuits and instant noodles.
In just a few days, all the supermarkets in the city were looted.
People had food temporarily, so they stopped going out at night and drew the curtains during the day, staying at home.
Day after day, as the food supply slowly decreased and there was still no news from the government, worry once again rose in everyone's hearts.
On the 45th day of the copy, Qiu Lao, who has been obsessed with improving new types of grain, announced good news.
"We found it! We found a way to grow new crops without water!"
She Wen wiped the sweat from her forehead with the back of her hand, laughing and crying: "We succeeded, we finally did it!"
Song Yue also fell to the ground exhausted. Regardless of how dirty the mud was, she just sat there with a smile on her face.
Although she was no longer eligible to participate in the optional tasks, she still participated in the improvement project after Mr. Qiu.
Waterless cultivation can produce large quantities of crops and is also resistant to high temperatures, which is tantamount to hope of life for the people who are struggling under high temperatures.
Mr. Qiu quickly contacted the leaders in the same industry and jointly announced the good news.
For a time, the whole country was excited!
The crowd cheered non-stop, calling Qiu Lao the modern-day savior of Xing Nation! His team and its members were instantly propelled onto the stage!
She Wen became famous, and Song Yue also became famous.
But they did not appear in public, and only expressed their thoughts in a low-key manner off-screen.
Unexpectedly, this scene deeply moved people all over the country.
"God knows how many tears I shed after watching this video! Mr. Qiu and his team are so great! Why didn't I know this before!"
"I thought that after the disbandment incident thirty years ago, Elder Qiu had lost interest in research, but I didn't expect that the elder Ren had been quietly researching behind the scenes!"
"I am too superficial and look at Mr. Qiu with worldly eyes!"
"Am I the only one who thinks the members of Qiu Lao are selfless? Both of them refused to appear on camera and were determined not to let anyone know what they look like. For this alone, I give them a thumbs up."
"Hehe, you guys remind me of a press conference two weeks ago. The B-level team promoted it so highly that they even invited the chairman of the consortium to attend."
"Looking at this, the character of the two teams is immediately apparent."
"Since we're on this topic, I'll let you in on a secret. According to industry insiders, the new grain developed by a certain B-level team actually has flaws and is completely incapable of mass production."
"Damn it, what's the point of not being able to mass produce? And they're still giving them purple crystal investment? Where's justice!"
"If you ask me, those three chairmen deserved to die. It was their fault for not investing the purple crystal in Elder Qiu!"
"Ahahahaha, if it were before, I definitely wouldn't dare to say it, but now I can barely afford to eat, so I'll just say it straight out. I fully support Mr. Qiu! I hope Mr. Qiu's team can get the purple crystal investment!"
The voices supporting Mr. Qiu on the Internet are getting louder and louder. Although Song Yue and the other two were caught off guard, they are sincerely happy.
On the 46th day of the copy, the government sent people to purchase Qiu Lao's improved new grain.
The people who came did not wear any badges of the three major consortiums. Song Yue saw it in his heart but said nothing.
On the 47th day of the copy, the improved new grain was put into the farmland in a hurry to start production.
At the same time, construction of underground air-raid shelters began, and it was expected that the first batch of citizens would be evacuated in five days.
On the same day, the country also released news that experts have developed technology to convert seawater into drinkable water, and citizens no longer have to worry about water problems.
On the 52nd day of the copy, the underground air-raid shelter was built as promised. State personnel moved the residents of the old community away, and the new community waited for the next batch.
Song Yue, Qiu Lao, She Wen and Song Wei were on the first transfer list.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Qiu insisted not to move. He thought that the basement he dug was very good. Although there were few electrical appliances and his life was not as convenient as the one provided by the government, he hoped to stay here and continue to concentrate on his experiments.
"Improving new types of grain is good, but what if a new disaster strikes Star Country one day? I must develop seeds that are adapted to different natural disasters so that the people will not go hungry."
This is what Mr. Qiu told the visitor.
The visitor's eyes were red, and he saluted solemnly at the end: "I am proud that Singapore has a great man like you!"
So he stopped trying to persuade Mr. Qiu and left quietly.
Song Yue stood nearby and saw the badge on the left chest of this visitor.
The badge is sewn with golden ears of wheat, which are large and full.
If she remembered correctly, she remembered that the newly elected government was called the Akiho Party on the Internet.
In the autumn harvest season, the old wheat ears are ripe.
Song Yue originally thought that the high-temperature copy would come to an end at this pace, but the next day, which was the 53rd day of the copy, she heard She Wen shouting at the basement door.
"Master Qiu, Senior Sister Song! It's bad! The mountain is on fire!"
The author has something to say:
The high temperature dungeon countdown is coming, it will be finished tomorrow~
I owe 4300, and I made up 1800 in this chapter, so I have 2500 left. Ok, I'm almost done with my debt~
