Chapter 40 NO.0028: Patting Repair Method

Bai Dong first raised his sleeves and wiped his eyes, then held the display screen of the detector with both hands, holding his breath and looking at the results again.

[Target mental index: 1.000]

That's right, there is no change, it's not because I'm dazzled.

"Leader Erwin, come here..."

After confirming again and again that she had read correctly, she hurriedly shouted.

"What's wrong?"

Hearing Bai Dong's urgent call, Booker finally took his attention away from his sleeves. He walked over and asked nervously:

"What, are the test results bad?"

Bai Dong took a deep breath and tried her best to control her excitement. Then she turned her head, looked at Booker seriously and said:

"Team leader, a piece of bad news...

"This mind detector must be scrapped."

As she spoke, she immediately turned the instrument's display screen in Booker's direction.

"Look, this is completely impossible!"

Bai Dong tried to make her voice sound regretful, but was not very successful - the corners of her mouth that could not restrain herself from rising and the expectant eyes revealed her true mood at the moment.

The expression on Booker's face was originally very nervous, but the moment he saw this series of numbers, he immediately turned into a bitter and bitter face.

After you finish a math word problem and find out that the number of children who are going to the amusement park is 8.3, you don’t need the teacher to draw a big cross on the paper to know that you made a mistake.

"this……"

Booker seemed to want to say something more, but Bai Dong immediately interrupted excitedly:

"But there is another good news. In a few days, the 404 Shopping Festival will be held. Feishue e-commerce platform has a 50% discount on the entire website, and there is also a trade-in event. Leader Erwin, now is definitely the best time to replace equipment. You

Let’s talk to the people in the finance department. If you calculate it, you can get the sixth-generation psychometric instrument for about 450,000 Ore, which is an absolute record low!”

450,000 Orei is still "only", given the current miserable financial situation of the organization...

Booker heard this and hugged his chest, then raised his right hand to cover his mouth.

After a long while, he pointed to the dazzling "1.000" on the display screen with some resignation, and then said:

"So is there a possibility that the instrument is not broken and this is the real mental index measured by Liao Qi?"

Bai Dong looked at Booker as if he were mentally retarded:

"So, you want to say that Liao Qi is actually Janus?"

"Forget it, just pretend I didn't say..."

Booker, who was also dumbfounded by what he said, helplessly covered his forehead with his hands as he spoke.

Bai Dong stood up, walked to Booker, patted his shoulder and comforted him:

"It's better to accept the reality, team leader. All electronic products will be scrapped one day. This instrument has done its job well enough."

After saying that, she walked over to Liao Qi and planned to help him take off the helmet for testing.

Booker sighed and walked to the instrument that looked like an old-fashioned picture tube TV, and patted the side of the instrument reluctantly.

"It's only been used for a few years, how could it be scrapped..."

He kept mumbling.

"Hiss-hiss-"

Along with a burst of electric sound, the picture on the screen changed as he filmed it.

It was also at this time that the owl logo of Minerva Information Technology flashed and jumped several times quickly on the display screen, and then the entire screen seemed to be disturbed by something, with countless mosaic color blocks popping up.

"Um?"

Booker noticed this change, tentatively increased the strength on his hand, and tapped the instrument a few more times.

The messy current sound stopped, the mosaic on the display disappeared, and the owl also disappeared from the screen after flashing violently for the last time.

But for some reason, Booker felt for a moment that the owl seemed to be looking at him.

But before he had time to pay more attention, Liao Qi detected a change in his mental index on the screen.

The impossible "1" jumped to "0", and at the same time, the three digits after the decimal point also began to change.

The numbers kept jumping and finally stabilized at a value:

[Target mental index: 0.978]

Booker patted the detector again, and this time, the numbers on the display did not change.

After looking at the numbers and then at his hand patting the instrument, Booker excitedly shouted to Bai Dong standing aside.

"Hey, this thing is fixed!"

"ah?"

Bai Dong made a confused sound.

Booker turned the instrument's display screen and pointed it towards Bai Dong, who was preparing to help Liao Qi take off his helmet.

"I just took a few shots and it seems to have been fixed.

"Look, the values ​​are normal."

…………

"So, no one told me what the mental index of 0.978 is like?"

After taking off his helmet, he felt like he was going to be blinded by Jiang Zhou, rubbing his eyes and asking questions.

"very nice."

"Hmm... very talented..."

Booker and Bai Dong on the side replied respectively.

The former's voice was calm and revealed a touch of joy; while the latter seemed a little weak, like a primary school student holding a failing paper on the way to school.

"This isn't a radio, how can it just take two shots..."

After Bai Dong finished answering, he continued to talk full of resentment.

"Uh... by very good, do you mean how good it is?"

Seeing that the mind adjuster seemed to be in a bad mood, Jiang Zhou turned to Booker and asked.

Booker smiled and replied:

"Let's put it this way, your talent may be better than that of the former team leader Koret. I remember that when he completed the adjustment to Depth 1, his mental index dropped to 0.972. Looking at it this way, you completed the upgrade to Depth 3 before it fell below 0.95.

It may be okay. And if you are willing to take a certain risk, upgrading to depth 4 is not a bad idea.”

Having said this, he stood up and walked to Jiang Zhou's side, patting Liao Qi on the shoulder like an old leader:

"I think we can now start preparing the printing permissions and materials required for Icarus Path Depth 2. Later, I will ask the comrades in charge of procurement to pay attention to those Abyss Rover sellers."

Hearing the word "purchase", Bai Dong suddenly raised his head and looked at Booker and said:

"So how about we test it again? Maybe it was just an accident before..."

Although she was asking about Booker, it was Jiang Zhou who reacted first. He took a breath and said:

"It's better not to... I've just tested it three times, and even Booker tested it once. There should be no problem with the instrument. It measured 1 before, probably because of a system update bug or something..."

He said this, on the one hand, because the experience of testing the mental index cannot be called a good one no matter how you say it.

But more importantly, Jiang Zhou didn't want them to continue on this topic...

To be honest, he couldn't figure out which "1" or "0.978" was him, or the real mental index of Liao Qi, a controllable factor.

But the fact that he can control two bodies at the same time will make his mental index different from ordinary people. There is definitely no problem.

Looking at it this way, the number "0.978" seems too normal.

But in this case, if the real number is really "1", then what is helping to cover it up?

The Janus system? The unknown existence I saw on the Abyss Dark Web? Or Minerva Information Technology?

God knows... I know too little information at the moment, and I can't deduce anything based on the few clues in my hand.

"Yes, I have tested it. There is nothing wrong with the instrument and it can be used again."

Seeing what Liao Qi said, Booker immediately agreed.

Bai Dong curled his lips when he heard this and went to the side to draw circles again.

Booker smiled apologetically, then turned to look at Jiang Zhoudao:

"Since your mental index is normal and stable, and the organization is short of manpower now, let's go through the discharge procedures without further delay."

In this era, medical technology and medical costs have made great leaps.

As long as you can afford to pay, and you still have a breath, or your body can be roughly recovered, hospitals run by big companies can basically save you.

An injury like Liao Qi's, which had several broken ribs, could be completely healed in just a few hours.

Jiang Zhou nodded and then asked:

"So where are we going next? House of Chiron?"

Booker shook his head and said:

"We need to interrogate that Lobo Gang guy first.

"You are more qualified than us for this matter."
