Chapter 16 Cracked
After entering the camp, Lynn took Tilu to a complex near the center of the camp, with the Rhine Welfare School written at the door.
Here, another circle of walls is erected on the periphery, which adopts an optical shielding field that is more advanced than the power grid.
Tilu didn't recognize these, but just looked at the dormitory-like buildings inside the walls and the playground where the buildings had not been specially repaired.
There were about fourteen or five children playing in the playground, some of which were known to Tilu, some of which she didn't.
"Tobecca, Debbie, Jimmy, who are you here!"
Several children chasing and fighting raised their heads when they heard this, and then cheered and surrounded them.
"elder sister!"
"I miss you so much, where have you been?"
"Sister, look at my toys."
Lynn was surrounded, greeting them one by one, then touched her head and smiled on her face.
She introduced Tilu, and the children also said excitedly, "Long time no see," "I miss you so much."
After playing for a few minutes, Tilu asked Lynn, who was standing next to her, "Lynn, where is your brother?"
Linen, who was holding hands, heard the question and smiled and said, "My brother is in the house. He had some accidents a few days ago and his emotions were not stable."
"Are you sick?" Tilu asked seriously.
Lynn shook his head, not explaining too much.
"Oh, I remembered it!"
Tilu nodded for granted: "He has been like a girl since he was a child, and he likes to hide in the room and play with dolls and toys."
"Saying this, a little gentleman is not something a lady should do."
A young male voice came from the side, and Tilu turned her head and saw the iconic blonde hair.
"It's you?" she exclaimed.
Nero Shuer slowly walked out of the house with a little boy's hand, and it was Lynn's younger brother, Shay Whitelaney.
Nero bowed with one hand and said, "I met again, I say hello to Mr. Fu Xi for me, Miss Tilu."
"Good morning, Mr. Nero."
Tilu quickly returned the gift.
When Shay Whitelaney saw Tilu, she immediately became excited, and she made a whimper of unknown significance in her mouth, and she wanted to break free from Nero's hands.
"Shay!" Lynn raised the volume unhappily, and Shay quickly calmed down.
After a brief greeting, Nero handed Shay's hand to Lynn and then explained: "At noon, I went to the camp command center, and I made an appointment with Fu to visit the laboratory. I didn't have time to process the report, so you can reply to the supply for me.
The business and the previous wet parts servers need to be re-checked, so you are responsible.”
Lynn held his brother's hand and nodded silently.
Nero greeted Tilu again and left the wall with two bodyguards.
"Have you been with him like this?"
Tilu asked her playmate.
Lynn smiled: "Well, Mr. Nero... occasionally explains me some work related to the wet parts server."
"That's great!"
Tilu sighed: "My boss never explains what job I have. It's great to be trusted like you."
“Trust?”
Linen stood beside her, her fingers unconsciously touching the prosthetic pattern on her waist.
She murmured to herself: "Trust comes at a price, Brigitte."
"What did you say?" Tilu didn't hear clearly.
"No, nothing." Lynn handed his brother's hand to his friend: "Shay has liked to follow your butt since she was a child. She finally met, so you can play with him for a while."
"OK."
Tilu nodded, looked at Shay, and couldn't help but say, "I haven't seen you for a year, why do I feel your brother is stunned?"
...
Tilu and Lynn played with the children in the yard for about an hour.
She still remembered that she only asked Fu Xi for two hours of vacation, so she stopped and walked aside with Linen.
"Have you had fun?" Lynn asked at Dilu with a sweaty end of his hair tied behind his ears.
“Ah… well.”
Tilu looked at the children who were still playing, playing a catch game: "I'm very happy, I just couldn't say a few more words to Shay, Debbie and the others."
"This place is usually managed in a closed manner. If there are no guests, the children should be in the room."
Lynn explained with a smile: "You've been here to give them a few more hours of entertainment, and they'll definitely have to play crazy for a while."
Tilu accepted the friend's explanation, then thought of something, and suddenly came to Linen's side.
“I have a plan!”
She excitedly told her friends about the town reconstruction plan she had thought about for most of the day yesterday, and added at the end:
"How about it? When we rebuild the town, we will be able to bring back all the homeless people and live together again."
"Brigie..."
Lynn sighed: "You should not think so much about serving the big guys you specialize in for Fu now."
"Don't you?" Tilu was shocked.
Lynn's eyes flashed and just said, "I am now affiliated with Rhine Biotechnology and work for Nero... I'm very busy, I'm afraid I won't be able to take time... But then I can provide you with logistical support."
Tilu didn't say anything, but she couldn't help but show disappointment on her face.
If everyone does not live together again in the future, what is the point of rebuilding a town?
Lynn touched her head and comforted her softly:
"You, you should grow up, and you can no longer act as willful as a child."
"Would you like to think more about others and consequences before making a decision?"
"Um...well."
Tilu responded twice with a low voice, but did not listen.
Perhaps because he noticed the crack with his friend, Lynn and Tilu chatted for a few more casual words and stood up.
"You should go back, let me go."
Tilu didn't continue to stay, but just told her to take good care of herself.
After his emotions faded, his smart IQ reoccupied the brain high ground again, and Dilu began to realize the various abnormalities in this playground.
She opened her mouth, but thought of Lynn and finally asked nothing.
...
"Pay specialist, welcome!"
Rhine Bio's laboratory was not in the camp where they were stationed, but dug up a large area underground.
There are optical camouflage and automatic floating cannons at the entrance of the laboratory. If Nero Seul had not led the way, it would be difficult for ordinary people to find this place, let alone break it.
Nero, who came to the laboratory, changed into a white coat that belonged to the scientific researchers and walked in front of him.
"There are few friendly partners coming to visit the laboratory. Please pay more attention if the hospitality is not done well."
The two walked a long way along a square corridor, took the elevator and went all the way down.
Finally, what was presented to Fu Xi was a huge factory building in the style of a machining factory.
Various intelligent weapons monsters were cut off from energy supply and AI response, and hung on piles of bondage racks of robotic arms like dead bodies.
In the center of the entire laboratory, there is a wide circular area. In addition to the robotic arms and conveyor belts, there are also liquid-covered glass pipes connected to the head of the intelligent weapon behemoth.
Every time, the black wet parts server that looks like a seaweed gather will be transported to the intelligent weapon monster by pipeline, and several busy engineers will surround the monster for data testing.
“It’s spectacular.”
Fu Xi objectively commented that the scene in front of him has a shadow of science fiction games.
"Not comparable to the military Kabbala Machinery Laboratory."
Nero shook his head and smiled bitterly: "In fact, the entire laboratory is no longer enough to make ends meet. The intelligent machine monster has not formed an industrial chain that can continuously make profits. The manufacturing and maintenance costs of wet parts servers are too high, and there are many hidden dangers...
I've been looking for alternatives, and I'm still in the early verification stage."
He paused, and then suddenly bowed deeply to Xi.
"Nero, what are you doing?"
"I'm sorry, I lied to you yesterday. It was really rare to see a friend in the deserted wasteland. I was so excited that I wanted to invest a lot from Fu Gong to make up for the project hole."
Nero Seul's tone was very sincere. He didn't even hit the smiley person, and Fu Xi couldn't get angry.
But then he said something that made Fu Xi breathe stagnate.
"And I've heard of the 'emperor' that Mr. Fu asked Mayor Edishi yesterday."
