Chapter 137 President
“……………………………………………………”
The hesitation and struggle were entangled with each other, and Lin Xiang himself didn't know what attitude to treat the girl in front of him. Although the gap between reality and imagination was too big, this was the moment that Meng Yingxiu was most looking forward to. Sadness, excitement, loss, joy... Countless thoughts were intertwined, like a heavy stone pressing on her heart, and it seemed like a cloud that was lighter than the air rising... It took him a long time to murmur out the name that had been wandering in his throat with a sound that was almost only he could hear.
A hint of surprise appeared quietly on the girl's face as soft as porcelain. She opened her slightly red mouth and whispered timidly with the same hesitant and unsure tone: "...Dad."
Lin Xiang smiled. He had no choice but to smile bitterly.
The girl in front of her was bleeding exactly the same blood as Ying Jia. Her face, skin, and hair were like a small version of Ying Jia. If she was enlarged, she would be able to be meticulously matched with the white figure in her memory. But now... she is just a child of a few years old. The title of "Dad" is reasonable and normal.
Reality cannot be as perfect as dreams. But no matter what, incomplete reality is much better than false fantasy. I need a lover, but God has given me a daughter... She and she are both my loved ones.
"Jia Jia——"
Unlike just now, this call abandoned all hesitation and hesitation, full of strength and affirmation.
The girl smiled and showed her face like morning light. Her light steps quickly shortened the distance between the two people, jumped up and rushed directly into Lin Xiang's slightly opened arms, allowing him to feel the warmth and softness crowded in his arms.
The extremely delicate face gently stroked Lin Xiang's neck, and there was a very comfortable and slightly cool smoothness. This shocked his whole body and his body began to tremble uncontrollably. The crazy-beating heart was like a ball of hot fire, burning its body and boiling blood, urging his black jade-like eyes to ripple with salty and hot tears, and the emotions that he tried his best to control quickly retracted.
"dad……"
The girl's voice was very light and very pleasant. She curled up in the center of her warm and solid arms, as gentle as a kitten. Even she herself couldn't tell why. This strange man who had never met and had just entered her vision could bring herself an unprecedented quietness and warmth.
"I implanted your image in the memory space of her cerebral cortex. In her subconscious mind, you are the person she is closest to. This is her most primitive memory. The special feeling of intimacy felt in the mother's uterus during pregnancy has been converted into your personal information. Your body, appearance, hair color, sound, etc. are existences that will never be erased in the depths of her mind. The person she loves the most is you."
Liu Yuchen's voice came from behind him. It was very calm, without any unnecessary emotions.
The girl grabbed Lin Xiang's clothes tightly, as if afraid that he would disappear from his side at any time. Lin Xiang's body was trembling, and he hugged the girl very tightly. The soft jade-colored skin on his face showed unprecedented happiness and satisfaction.
In the quiet morning light, there was a soft and soothing thin water vapor floating. The light red light curtain slowly emanated from the end of the horizon in the distance, covering the dull clouds with a bright color that could barely block the gray. The soil was slightly wet, and the soles of the shoes were slight softness on the ground covered with sand and stones.
A huge fleet of more than ten trucks slowly drove out from the bottom of the white round eggshell-shaped building. From a distance, it looked like a jointed insect squirming and moving forward in the vast wilderness.
Holding the steering wheel with both hands and gently lit the accelerator rhythmically. Because he had to take into account the full load of trucks, the off-road vehicle was not very fast. However, Lin Xiang felt a sense of relaxed and happy pleasure. The breeze that came over him made him feel refreshed, without any fatigue, a relaxed mind, and extremely energetic.
Ying Jia sat in the passenger seat like a cute doll with her two delicate feet raised. Her soft hands clasped the seat belt stuck around her waist, turned her head from time to time, and looked at Lin Xiang curiously with her bright and flashing eyes. The latter was like a heart-to-heart relationship. Just at this moment, they turned their faces, and they both showed a gentle and warm sweet smile at the same time.
The buildings of No. 24 City of Life all have exactly the same appearance and shape. The only difference is only the different heights of each other.
On the top of the largest "eggshell" in the center of the city, there is a spacious hall with an arched dome. Like other rooms in the city, the decoration here is very simple. Apart from an oval desk made of alloy and a set of fabric sofas with square edges, there is no unnecessary decoration.
In front of the floor-to-ceiling window more than three meters high, a woman with an old face stood. The loose cotton robe covered her petite body, and the golden hair that slipped from the top of her head was quite sparse, revealing the traces of time left by the wrinkled skin on the corners of her eyes. She leaned against the thick and cold window frame and stared at the convoy gradually fading away in the wilderness. The wrinkled corners of her mouth showed a faint smile.
"Haha...a very interesting young man."
This sentence should be talking to herself. About three meters away from behind her, her right hand was behind her, and Liu Yuchen's eyes, which were slightly bent, also had a relaxed look as if she was relieved.
"Have you given all the things?" The woman did not turn around, her eyes still followed the dust flying high and gradually fading away in the distance.
"According to your instructions, all of them have been paid in full." The deacon of the Medical Association replied respectfully.
"He is very smart and knows how to cooperate in exchange. Instead of asking for direct demands or help with a blunt attitude... Whether in the old days or now, wise and intelligent people should be rewarded."
The woman's voice sounded very soft and full of unquestionable calmness: "However, this kind of thing is only once. If he wants to continue playing with the tricks that are not good and continue to enjoy this kind of free lunch, I will arrange a luxurious banquet for him that is rich enough but enough to keep people alive-"
Liu Yuchen showed a solemn expression on his face and nodded seriously.
"What do others think about this? What is the result of the three-person resolution?" the woman turned around in front of the window and asked faintly.
"Just like before. One vote for it, two votes against it." Liu Yuchen bowed, his words were brief, without a single redundant syllable.
"Lesl agrees, Lola and Chris oppose?" The woman's voice was still dull, and there was a little more feminine and coldness.
"Vice President Lesl believes that Lin Xiang's request is in accordance with the rules and should be met. Vice Presidents Lola and Chris demand that Yinyue City be directly occupied, and lifelong imprisonment be used as a threat, or material inducement to force Lin Xiang to hand over the formula." The young deacon of the Medical Association put the known answer in more detail.
"...They are so anxious. Do they really think I am useless?"
The woman's voice was very dull, but she had the coldness of resisting people from afar. She could not hear anger and had no other emotions. After a long time, she asked slowly: "What do you think about this?"
"The formula of the Level 6 enhancement agent is extremely important and must be in our hands."
After a pause, Liu Yuchen continued: "That drug has nearly perfect traits. It is suitable for humans of all physiological constitutions. It does not produce resistance, does not have common physiological rejection, and cellular reversal and neurasthenia almost does not exist. According to my test results, the degree of fusion with the blood is as high as 99.86%. What surprised me in particular is that it does not have common blocking and arrangement effects on the gene chain, and it will even repair and fill those parts that have been broken or physiologically missing. Compared to the enhancement drug we make, it has a milder effect, more significant, and more powerful mutant ability. This is no longer a simple conceptual ordinary drug, but an enhancer that can truly produce evolutionary effects in the human body. President Josephine, I suggest..."
Suddenly, the woman named Josephine suddenly reached out and interrupted his unfinished words, roaring in an almost crazy tone: "If your advice is as arbitrary as Lola and Crix, it is best not to say it, just let it rot in your stomach forever. I have heard enough of myself and thought it was smart. Enough, I have had enough-"
Liu Yuchen looked at her carefully, hesitated for a moment, and then re-connected the interrupted part: "...I suggest to strengthen cooperation with Yinyue City. Lin Xiang should have other ingredients worth exploring. I have a feeling that the level 6 enhancement potion is just a tool he throws out for material exchange. Even if we can't get real matching data from him, our own research progress has become more important. If we get more advanced potion from him, such as level 7, level 8, or even level 9 enhancement liquid... Such cooperation will always be more beneficial than disadvantages for us."
"Seventh level medicine? If he really has that kind of thing, why ask us for so many level five enhancement fluids?" Josephine had returned to her calmness. She shook her head lightly, as if she didn't believe it.
"To cover up the eyes-"
Liu Yuchen pointed out the core of the problem incisively: "He must have more and more appropriate reasons to cover up his secrets. The Joint Doctors Association is the best cover."
"So what are you going to do? I want to hear your opinion." Josephine yawned gently, covering her lips, looking a little tired.
"We are so unfamiliar with him first."
With a special aristocratic temperament, Liu Yuchen said in a unique melodious tone: "Lin Xiang's origin is very mysterious, and information about his childhood or a longer time is completely blank. Under normal circumstances, only the copyist or the person who had just left the refuge can do this. However, according to the relevant information we collected in Rock Town, he could almost say that he had nothing when he first appeared there. This is not consistent with the survivor of the refuge with a large amount of reserve resources for development. However, it is precisely because of his appearance that the development speed of Yinyue Town has unexpectedly improved. I have carefully studied every step of his action, and he seemed to have deliberately operated from the beginning, wanting to develop that sweet water land into a solid settlement. This business strategy is very similar to the Red Republican Army. Combining all aspects of intelligence and information, I attributed him to the first type - the copyist."
"You mean, the Red Republican Army has more advanced technology than us in genetic and biological research?"
Suddenly, Josephine opened her eyes in disbelief, her face full of fear and rage. She raised her hands high and waved her desperately towards the sky, and shouted nervously: "No! This is absolutely impossible! I, only I, is the only genius in the world--"
"Your Excellency! You are too nervous."
Seeing this, Liu Yuchen quickly stepped forward a few steps, took out a small portable vacuum syringe from his top pocket, grabbed Josephine's arm quickly, and stabbed it hard at the center of the expanding and bulging muscles. At the fastest speed, he injected all the transparent agent with a scale of ten milliliters in the syringe.
Josephine's heart was beating violently, and the powerful heart squeezed and flowed blood to the whole body at a terrible high frequency. The transparent agent entering the body quickly stopped this crazy abnormal stimulus. It cooled the fanatical heart, causing the surging jump to suddenly contract, and slowly returned to normal physiological functions.
Josephine opened her eyes wide and looked at the ceiling blankly and dullly. Her body was still twitching, but the fluctuation was already very small. Her inflated muscles were completely calmed down and her breathing became stable. Liu Yuchen slowly lifted her, weak, and her hands with distinctive female characteristics, drooped low from beginning to end.
Josephine, who was lying flat on the sofa, opened her mouth slightly, her fluffy hair spread out in disarray, and her stiff body had become soft. If it could smooth out the dense wrinkles on the surface of the skin, it should be able to re-expose a heart-wrenching peerless face.
Open the slot on the side of the syringe, take out the empty needle tube, and take out another new one from your pocket to replace it. Liu Yuchen silently looked at the godless face and shook his head sadly: "The attack time is advanced again... From the last time to now, the interval is less than 48 hours... President Josephine, what should I do?"
Pulling a metal alloy chair from the side and sitting down heavily. Liu Yuchen felt that his whole body was drained, empty, weak, and melancholy...
He stared blankly at Josephine who was as unconscious as a dead person, lowered his head and buried his face deep between his hands. His slender and white fingers were inserted into the depths of his hair, as if the demon's teeth were biting his scalp tightly. He murmured with a trembling voice: "...what should I do...what should I do? Help me, no matter who it is, please help me-"
When the sky is shrouded in darkness, it means that the light is getting closer and closer.
No matter in any era, building a new city is a huge and cumbersome project.
The wilderness is full of busy people. Along the drainage ditch made of stone and mud, thousands of houses are gradually being completed. People are constantly pushing and pulling simple wooden carts, entering and exiting the central gate of the tall city wall. The car is loaded with pieces of simply cut square stone, and the heavy body presses the wide axle into the ground, crushing clear lines on the gravel road connecting the inside and outside the wall.
The thick walls divide the entire city into two parts: inner and outer parts. The continuous mountains on the inner city contain a large number of high-quality stones. As an indispensable resource for urban development, quarries require more and more workers. According to regulations, civilians outside the city can obtain the necessary stones for building their own houses through exchange of goods or paying for work. In fact, they cannot and have no second choice - there is only soil in the wilderness. If they want to get a house of their own, they must obey the laws issued by Yinyue City.
Summer is basically over. The only ending of spending winter in the wilderness without any obstruction is to be frozen to death.
Civilians no longer talk about leaving or escaping. Potatoes sown in the fields will be harvested soon. Apart from the part that must be handed over, the remaining food stored should be eaten until next year. The soil here is good and the water is abundant. It is free to continue wandering in the wilderness, but it is difficult to find a rich place with abundant water and grass like this. As for the armed patrol personnel who are guarding the edge of the city with live ammunition... having them is also a safe guarantee.
People began to forget the city of Flame, and gradually disappeared from the rudeness, barbarity, and robbery that they encountered when they first entered the wilderness. They used various kinds of reasons to convince themselves that they could see with their eyes and actually contacted with their interests - other settlements may have various conveniences that Yinyue City cannot match, but Yinyue can indeed be self-sufficient in terms of food and water supply, the two most basic conditions for survival.
Chapter completed!
