Chapter 565 Difficult decision
I stayed until I was about to get off work, and several members of the "Old Tune Team" packed their belongings and prepared to leave.
When Long Yuehong, who was holding her own portable computer, passed by Jiang Baimian, she opened her mouth but did not speak.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Baimian noticed his abnormality.
Long Yuehong hesitated for a moment and said:
"Team leader, you have been insisting on investigating the cause of the destruction of the old world and the origin of the 'heartless disease', this must be full of dangers, aren't you, aren't you afraid of dying yourself?"
"There are latecomers!" Shang Jianyao, who was not far away, smiled and shouted.
Jiang Baimian glanced at him, looked at Long Yuehong, and smiled slightly:
"Of course I'm afraid."
She paused and added seriously:
"But there are things that someone always has to do, on the gray soil, many times, it's not that you are afraid of death, if you don't take risks, you won't die, and no one knows when the 'unintentional disease' will fall on their heads. Rather than dying in a daze, I would rather fall on the way to find hope."
"Wouldn't it feel better to look for light?" Shang Jianyao asked in a discloring tone.
Jiang Baimian said "heh":
"Did you use 'literary youth' for yourself?"
She turned to smile at Long Yuehong:
"Besides, it's not guaranteed to die, but there is still a possibility of success."
At this time, Bai Chen interjected:
"At least as long as I can keep up, I want to stay in the group.
"In the future, the danger that the group will face is getting bigger and bigger, and I can't improve myself anymore, so I will take the initiative to withdraw and not drag everyone down."
"What is a drag or not?" Jiang Baimian said angrily and funny, "But this idea is very good, in short, do what you can, you are like this, and I will do the same. If the danger ahead is really too great to deal with, I will definitely not rush over stupidly, leaving the green mountains behind, and I am afraid that there will be no firewood? If my generation really can't complete the investigation into the causes of the destruction of the old world, I will focus on cultivating the next generation."
Speaking of this, Jiang Baimian thought for a moment and said:
"Anyway, don't make a decision in a hurry. Xiaohong, don't be impulsive and give up the opportunity, maybe you will regret it in a few days, Xiaobai, you too, genetic modification has certain risks no matter what, you can think about it for a while longer to see if the situation changes, tomorrow and accidents, no one knows which will come first."
As for hey, he has already given up on treatment!
Seeing that the team leader spoke more formally, Bai Chen and Long Yuehong both nodded in agreement.
On the way back to the 495th floor, Long Yuehong was silent and did not speak, while Shang Jianyao argued with himself for a few words.
He didn't persuade anything, nor did he cheer up, waved his hand, and embarked on the road home in style.
Back home, Long Yuehong began to be busy, sometimes going to the "kitchen" to help Gu Hong, and sometimes going to the small room to tutor her sister Long Aihong in her homework.
After dinner, the family packed up the dishes and chopsticks, went out for a couple of walks, and then the two took turns playing with the computer, and the three of them chatted while listening to the radio.
"Hello everyone, I'm Hou Yi, the hourly newsannouncer, and it's 8 o'clock in the evening......
"Today, Su Yu, director of the company's board of directors, went to the surface to express condolences to the employees on duty in the surrounding sentry and commend their unremitting spirit in the harsh environment......"
Hearing this, Gu Hong turned her head sideways and looked at her eldest son:
"Is the surface environment really that bad?
"You didn't say that before."
"Divide the place." Long Yuehong explained simply, "Many areas were severely damaged when the old world was destroyed, and there are often extreme bad weather until today.
"Those people on duty and the expatriate employees of the Security Department are really hard......" Gu Hong sighed.
Long Dayong immediately echoed:
"Yes, if it weren't for their sacrifice, how could we live so peacefully and steadily?"
Even if the supplies are a little scarce, it is much better than Shuiwei Town and Hongshiji.
Long Yuehong listened quietly, habitually raised her right hand and touched her cheek.
The cold feeling made him sober.
…………
In the middle of the night, Long Yuehong's body twitched and opened his eyes.
He had a nightmare just now.
In the dream, his parents, younger brother and sister all suffered from "heartless disease".
He wanted to save him, but was hit by a shell and exploded to pieces.
Long Yuehong subconsciously raised her hand and touched her forehead, feeling cold.
He habitually used his right palm again.
After changing to his left hand, he found that his forehead was covered in sweat.
Long Yuehong took a breath, spat out slowly, and decided to go to the bathroom to make it easier and wipe her face by the way.
As soon as he arrived at the door of the small bathroom at home, he saw a dim light shining through the crack of the door.
"Who's inside?" Long Yuehong asked.
"Me." Long Aihong's voice came out.
Long Yuehong asked casually:
"Haven't you slept yet?"
Long Aihong smiled awkwardly:
"Brother, don't tell your parents, I, I've been playing with the computer until now."
"Are you not going to study tomorrow?" Long Yuehong was angry and funny.
"Don't read it." Long Aihong replied very confidently, "Tomorrow weekend."
Have you forgotten about this stubble...... Long Yuehong thought for a while and said:
"I won't say it, you can't hide it, the energy ration at home is just this, you use so much, how can your parents not find out?"
"I, I came back today and accidentally found that the energy ration at home was much more, so I squandered it a little, a little, this is almost the end of the month, and it will be wasted if I don't use it anymore." Long Aihong asked suspiciously, "Brother, do you know what's going on?"
Long Yuehong thought for a moment and said:
"Probably, the corresponding part of the energy ration after my promotion was issued."
"You, have you been promoted again?" Long Aihong was surprised and happy, "D6?"
Long Yuehong said a little embarrassed and a little proud:
"Just confirmed, D7."
He hasn't told his parents about this yet, and Shang Jianyao hasn't been publicizing it all over the street today.
"Wow!" Long Aihong sincerely admired, "Brother, you are so amazing! Seriously, do you want to consider my classmates, several of them admire you."
Obviously, she learned a lot from old world entertainment materials.
Long Yuehong coughed:
"How long do you have left?"
"Wait a little longer, wait another five minutes, chatting with you will make me feel like I'm brewing again." Long Aihong estimated.
Long Yuehong thought about it slightly:
"Forget it, forget it, I'll go outside."
Five minutes is more than enough.
He wrapped himself in a thick cotton coat, took a flashlight, and walked out of the house to the nearest public toilet.
After solving it comfortably, Long Yuehong shrank his body, illuminated the road ahead, and walked back step by step.
He has long been accustomed to the cold after the lights are turned off, knowing that most of the precious geothermal energy is directed to the "production area" with the help of some technology.
As Long Yuehong walked, a black shadow suddenly jumped out from the side and pounced on him.
This...... Long Yuehong's actual combat experience was already rich, and when he saw that he had no time to dodge, he hurriedly raised his right arm and blocked it in front of him.
Almost at the same time, his arm was heavy and he was pressed up by the black shadow.
With the flashlight, Long Yuehong saw the attacker clearly.
It was a somewhat familiar face, it should be a neighbor nearby, at this time, his expression was distorted, his eyes were cloudy, and he was bloodshot.
"Heartless disease"...... Another person has "unintentional disease"...... Long Yuehong's heart tightened, and the palm of her right hand suddenly became a little red.
It was his subconscious reaction, but soon he took control of his instincts and abandoned the use of the "laser launcher."
This will pierce the wall or floor, and it is very easy to accidentally injure others!
In the blink of an eye, Long Yue's right arm, cast in red steel cast iron, shook and threw the "heartless person" out.
Then, he kicked his feet, pounced on them, clenched his iron fist, and swung it out.
Pong!
The head of the "heartless one" sank directly, and an exaggerated wound appeared.
Watching the enemy slowly fall, Long Yuehong was a little frightened by the strength of the robotic arm.
He had just recovered from a serious injury and solved a "heartless person" so easily......
The strength of this simple fist is no worse than the team leader's biological prosthetics, and it is definitely better than many chips in terms of hardness!
After staying for more than ten seconds, Long Yuehong turned to the "Order Supervision Room".
…………
The next morning, in Room 14 on the 647th floor, in the office of the "Old Tune Team".
"There was another 'heartless disease' last night?" Bai Chen finished his work at hand, and as he was about to go to the training room, he asked.
She heard about this from the early morning broadcast, so she asked the well-informed local employees Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong to inquire.
Shang Jianyao looked at Long Yuehong.
Long Yuehong said "uh":
"I met you."
"Are you okay?" Bai Chen asked.
"No." Long Yuehong smiled, "It's relatively easy to solve."
"Has the frequency of 'unintentional disease' in the company increased this year?" Bai Chen turned to another point.
"I don't know." Shang Jianyao shook his head, "I have to let Dabai check it."
When it came to Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong realized that the team leader had not come until now, and it had been more than 20 minutes since working hours.
