MTL - Therapy Planet No. 13-v2 Chapter 142 chance encounter

When the news of the mutant zerg reached Riley's ears, she was looking for the necessary materials on the 333rd floor of the First Library of the Main Star Federation of the University City Galaxy.

Although almost all books—confidential and unclassified—have been scanned into data and transferred to the Sanxingdui Research Institute, some are too old, not to mention the improperly preserved paper versions. The version of the digital hard disk also suffered a lot of damage and had to be read by a special machine.

Moving around will also cause damage to hardware and software to some extent, and Sanxingdui’s site is also limited. In the early days of the Federation, when Sanxingdui and the First Library were built, high-level deliberation took a long time, and finally some important materials were definitely kept. in the first library.

Riley came here to re-check relevant original materials and to relax.

—For example, she is just wandering around in other floors. In a library of this magnitude, you can always encounter some interesting things inadvertently.

"Ah, sorry."

Riley had just taken his eyes off the video when he accidentally bumped into a tall, thin-looking man.

"It's my fault, you're not hurt, are you?"

The man looked polite, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and his short silver-gray hair was meticulously combed. He was elegant and easy-going, and people couldn't help but suspect that he was a professor in a university city galaxy.

"No." Riley shook his head quickly, and with a detached smile pulled the distance between the two of them.

She saw the book in the man's hand clearly, and asked casually, "Are you interested in Zerg? Not many people like to study Zerg."

This is a stack of reprints of Zerg combat records.

Although the Federation and the pirates have recently fought, and the Zerg have also participated, the mutation has basically been covered up by the Federation, and not many people know about it. Changes in focus.

"I haven't seen you before."

Riley quickly went through the big names in the field of biological warfare in his mind, and no one's face could match the person in front of him.

She smiled politely and asked, "You are quite young based on your age, are you new here?"

The man shook his head: "I'm just a tourist living here, and I'm not in the university city system. I just came across this floor and I'm just a little interested."

"To the Zerg?"

"To the Zerg."

Riley only thought it was novel. Now the Zerg is almost on the verge of withdrawing from the stage of history in the eyes of ordinary people. Even if there was news some time ago to hype the Zerg Queen, it was only a short-lived publicity, and it was impossible to continue.

The rare rest time, and the mutant Zerg video that just came, and the need to watch it, must have been filled with the message box requesting communication now, which made Riley feel a sense of self-defeating irritability.

She tilted her head and walked towards the cafes on every floor: "I just happen to have some experience, why don't we talk?"

The man nodded: "It's an honor."

The two sat face to face at the small round table, next to a huge floor-to-ceiling window.

The First Library is undoubtedly the highest geographic coordinate in the University City Galaxy, and it is also the greatest symbol of wisdom.

From the outside, it looks like a splendid pile of books piled up by piles of books, and they are scattered. Looking out from the transparent "spine" composed of single-sided glass, there are countless floors with different shapes at the core of different disciplines. .

A house of text structure, a structure surrounded by musical notes, an academy formed by particle spheres…

The wisdom and wealth created by human beings through the ages are all in front of our eyes.

"By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet."

After sitting down, the man took out a business card from his pocket: "My name is He Xiangbin, a freelancer."

A folded robotic hand stretched out from the edge of the table, the steel shell exuded a cool cyberpunk beauty, and poured a cup of specially-brewed coffee for the two of them.

As they sat down, they decided on the drinks they wanted to drink.

"Riley."

The director of the Sanxingdui Research Institute did not shy away from revealing his true identity.

As a result, the entire First Library is subject to official monitoring, and entry and exit must undergo detailed identity verification, so it is difficult to infiltrate criminals;

Second, ordinary people do not care about such top scientists. Even if they appear on the news, in the current era of information explosion, they will be forgotten by humans in an instant;

Thirdly, even if someone with a heart wants to come over and kidnap the current director of Sanxingdui in full view...

Riley doesn't think that's a bad thing.

After all, the recent rumors in the institute made her have to apply for a transfer order to go to the university city galaxy to steal some cleanliness.

He Xiangbin recognized Riley's true identity the first time he saw her, but the experience on the 13th made him subconsciously suppress his surprised expression, and it was only now that he squeezed out a just right surprise.

To a certain extent, those who have stayed on the 13th for a long time can directly apply for a degree from the Federal Academy of Drama.

I believe that most people can become the first person to play the role of "never liked" even if they can't get in the seat of an outstanding graduate.

"It turned out to be...you." He Xiangbin quickly stood up, but Lai motioned to sit down with his eyes, "I'm sorry."

"You're welcome, I'm also a layman in terms of Zerg."

Riley picked up the cup and took a sip of coffee, then glanced at the book: "But I'm also a little interested recently, and I happened to meet a friend, so I want to exchange a word or two."

He Xiangbin smiled: "I thought you should know this very well."

Liming explained 90% of what happened in Sanxingdui.

The core of it is the various sub-projects based on the "Great Return" project of Sanxingdui... Digital planet, 13 different forms of social simulation, black death virus, brain-computer interaction... and so on, Dawn's brain is like a precise A working machine that re-engraved all the paper materials into the limited brain capacity.

She has grown into a monster with a huge capacity.

Since the Federation is also experimenting with the Black Death Virus, it is impossible for Riley not to react to the source of the mutation of the Zerg.

It is absolutely impossible to "know nothing" about the Zerg.

What does she want to do?

He Xiangbin has repeatedly confirmed that he is definitely not on the federal or Almi's wanted list. His identity certificate was re-registered by Lucas with great effort. Although the name has not changed, it is still a federal citizen. At a certain point in time in the information system, he can find an anchor in the boundless universe.

As long as he doesn't say it, he is the most ordinary federal citizen.

"Don't get me wrong, I just want to find someone to chat casually."

Riley seems to be doing something like this: "You know, anyone who's ever read a college paper and wrote a dissertation will have heard the instructor say something like this - if you could just pull a passerby in the coffee shop and ask him If you understand your research, then you can show that the paper is easy to understand - after staying in a fixed circle for a long time, it is easy to take some fairly professional things as common sense, which is also the reason why science is separated from the public."

"Occasionally we need someone to help us find our way or develop ideas," she said, holding a coffee cup.

He Xiangbin expressed his understanding.

Anything done to the extreme can easily become extreme, which is why many scholars are arrogant.

As the head of Sanxingdui, Riley can still see the whole picture, which is really not easy.

"So, what do you want to talk about?" he asked.

Riley said: "Now the Zerg is basically extinct, and there are not many active ones now. Which one are you looking at?"

He Xiangbin closed the page, revealing the cover: "Fernando."

He rubbed his temples: "After all, wasn't the news everywhere reporting that Fernando's queen was imprisoned or killed by pirates? I didn't know, so I just looked it up."

In fact, he came to study the fighting style of Fernando's team after Dawn's reminder.

-According to the announcement of the Queen before her death, at a certain point in history, a certain human affected the entire Zerg.

He will soon find this node.

"Battlefield records..." Riley read it carefully and couldn't help but read it out, "These are all first-hand information... Are you interested in the history of war?"

He Xiangbin nodded: "A little bit."

Riley was about to see what the passerby had to say when her personal terminal shrieked untimely.

She glanced down displeasedly, she had blocked ordinary contacts, and if she can still contact her now, something important must have happened!

"Jeffrey, what's the matter?"

She got up, turned her back to He Xiangbin, and looked at the forest of buildings outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

"Where are you now?" Jeffrey's voice didn't sound like hesitation.

"college town."

"I suggest you come back for a while. There are rumors all over the place now, saying that you acquiesced in letting the experimental body Dawn go, the video of the Zerg was posted on the public channel, and someone also deducted the leak of the Black Death Virus on you."

Riley gave an unpleasant "um": "I know. If you're just talking to me, then you don't have to..." So troublesome.

The last four words were rudely interrupted by Jeffrey: "Rumours are spreading all over the institute now, I believe that if you let them ferment, you will be criticized."

"Trust me, you wouldn't want to lose the title of director," Jeffrey said.

Losing a title means losing power.

Although Riley doesn't care about the political power on the head of the "director", she is well aware that research funding, equipment, political support, and other conditions are all tied to this title.

It would be fine if she was only demoted and abdicated, but once she got the title of "spy", she probably wouldn't even be able to set foot in Sanxingdui!

She originally wanted to wait for the results of the subject at hand to fight a beautiful turnaround every once in a while, so that this group of irresponsible people shut up, but now it seems that time does not allow it at all.

Riley cut off the communication: "I understand, come back soon, you help me stabilize them first."

"By the way, call the person in charge of Z4 to my office."

When Riley turned around and apologized to He Xiangbin to leave, He Xiangbin was already convinced that Riley's killing intent had been decided.
