Chapter 43 Zuo Yan! Live!
Zuo Yan had never laid her eyes on Zhang Cishun's watch. When he threw the watch over and she subconsciously caught it, she looked at the familiar watch in her memory and felt a little dazed. .
"This is my brother's." She was very sure, because the scratches on the watch were exactly as she remembered.
She looked up and wanted to ask where he found the watch, but both Zhang Cishun and Jing Shuo had disappeared from sight.
The gleaming light of the factory's fluorite shone on the watch. She maintained this posture for a long time before finally raising her head and taking a deep breath as if she was prepared for something.
[The end-of-life recording function is being restarted...]
[It has been detected that protocol 4.14.4 has been triggered... Please enter the password...]
Cold text covered the screen of the watch, Zuo Yan's finger touched it lightly, and a series of passwords followed. was entered into it.
[Verification in progress...]
[Verification successful! 】
The text flashed, and what finally appeared in front of Zuo Yan was an audio message.
She clicked it, and a familiar voice that made her trance came from the watch.
"...Time, July...3rd, 3023. I will probably die today. I don't know if this recording will be uploaded, but there is a high probability that it won't, because of the related functions of my watch It's been locked up."
"I don't know if they will destroy it after I die, or if it will be discovered. But I want to say something." "
People who are listening. ..." Zuo Ling's voice weakened, like a long sigh, but also like a struggle that had exhausted its strength.
"I used to be a scientific researcher, and I pursued my ideals with all my heart and effort, but fate seemed to have played a cruel joke on me... Only now did I finally understand that the future of mankind does not lie in City 88. ..."
"...Yan, you are one of the most important people in my life. I have witnessed your intelligence and courage. If possible, if the person listening is you. Please don't be trapped because of me. Within the limitations of hatred. You who have integrated the power of the heart core have the possibility to walk out of the barrier, so leave this city." "Don't be afraid of the wilderness. How can people be afraid of wild beasts? People in the inner city will take the fear and disaster of the wilderness into account
. Er is rooted in the consciousness of the city people, this is their method of enslavement. You should not be enslaved by this lie, you should have a free soul..." "..." The crystal liquid fell from the air and fell on the
watch
. On the screen, the display of the recording above was blurred.
She seemed to see Zuo Ling, who was sitting peacefully in front of her, smiling and talking to her. There was no attachment to the world on his face, only a slight sense of sadness and frustration.
The past reappears in blurred vision.
When she was very young, Zuo Ling took her out of Shangcheng District. It was the first time she saw the city outside of Shangcheng District. She saw the numb people in Zhongcheng who worked in factories all day long. Through the barrier between Zhongcheng and Xiacheng, she looked at the hardship and struggle in Xiacheng.
That day she saw with her own eyes a woman drowning a young child in the dirty ditch water. That was a scene that frightened her. She looked up and asked Zuo Ling why she did this.
"You know, in fact, the weakest thing is that the greatest resistance a slave can make is to stop producing slaves." Zuo Ling reached out to cover Zuo Yan's sight, then hugged her and walked back.
The little Zuo Yan just rested her chin on Zuo Ling's shoulder, looking at the distant body of the child that had disappeared from sight with indescribable emotions.
"You know, the society before the end of the world was very beautiful. Although it still had flaws, happiness filled every corner of the world." In the
laboratory, Zuo Ling said to the grown-up Zuo Yan. He was controlling the instrument in his hand, and the core he had just applied for from the institute was lying safely in the containment device, being fiddled with at will by Zuo Ling.
"Uncle said this thing is very dangerous, you must be careful!" Zuo Yan stood beside the experimental table with an e-book between her legs. On the ink-colored screen, there were large pieces of obscure knowledge.
Zuo Ling took Zuo Yan's collar, put her back on her seat, and said seriously: "Yan, only technology can benefit mankind. We must turn science into weapons. Only in this way can we eliminate all the doomsday beasts." Fall! Let the world return to its original state."
"Brother, why are you telling me this? I'm still young and don't understand." "
It's because you're still young, so you have to study hard."
But in the end, I still He couldn't reach his brother's level.
The shackles of technology have made Zuo Ling's research make no progress day after day. Is the route wrong? He doesn't know, but he can't give up. He firmly believes that the only one who can deal with the Doomsday Beast is the Doomsday Beast. The existence of the core must be used by humans in some way.
It’s just that… I don’t have enough time to do my own research.
Perhaps it was God's curtain, but that night, Zuo Ling's technology made a breakthrough.
But the question immediately followed, where should I find the experimental subjects?
The power of the core is undoubtedly powerful, so you must have an experimental subject who is willing to cooperate with you wholeheartedly.
He called the institute to apply, but was quickly rejected, and he began to think about the possibility of performing surgery on himself.
But soon, before he could think about it and come to a conclusion, his research materials were taken away and 'destroyed' by the intruder.
That's the think tank guy.
Zuo Yan couldn't admit it, because their clothes had the unique logo of the think tank.
Zuo Ling was warned.
He protested, but was taken away by the armed men.
On this day, she knew for the first time that research was not necessarily correct. But she doesn't think her brother is wrong, maybe they just don't realize the changes this technology will bring to mankind!
With this thought in mind, Zuo Yan returned to his brother's laboratory after those people left. The core that my brother applied for was not taken back by the armed personnel of the think tank, but was still placed on the workbench.
This saved her a lot of trouble.
That day, she closed the door to the laboratory, operated the instruments dug out from the wilderness by the 'Wildness Army', and performed surgery on herself.
The operation was successful
but before she could prove the value of her brother's research to the think tank, he came back.
That day he hit Zuo Yan for the first time, and then he said with a depressed tone: "Do you know how dangerous this is..." "
But I succeeded."
Later...
-
"In the end...sister, no matter what Whatever you decide, remember to protect yourself... Heh... I wish I could say these words to you in person and hug you once. But now I can only express it through this recording that I don’t know if you will hear. Oh...Zuo Yan! Live."
