  Chapter 47 Partner: Hot Spring

  The three of them met in Shangcheng District as agreed. After reuniting, Zuo Yan took Zhang Cishun to the institute to report.

  This time, Zhang Cishun walked calmly on the road. On the one hand, the city guards were almost invisible on the streets. On the other hand, the ID card in his hand could help him solve a lot of troubles.

  The 'Neural Network and Human Brain Simulation Research Institute' is located in an area close to the inner city. When Zhang Cishun saw the high-rise building belonging to the research institute from a distance, the haze of the sandstorm had already enveloped the barrier.

  He could clearly see the tumbling sand that was stirred up by the wind, and the several hundred meters of barrier was swallowed up in an instant. The pressure of the surrounding air seemed a bit oppressive, and the wind blew over, mixed with gravel.

  When the gravel hit Zhang Cishun within a few centimeters of him, it seemed like he had hit some invisible wall, and his speed suddenly slowed down. It wasn't until they attenuated to a certain critical speed that they passed through the force field lightly and fell on Zhang Cishun's body.

  "Jing Shuo, let's find a place to take shelter first." Zhang Cishun said, and his voice reached the ears of Jing Shuo, who had been walking behind him and used his body and the force field around his body to block the wind and sand to a limited extent. middle.

  "Yeah."

  Jing Shuo responded.

  The speed of the sandstorm was much faster than Zhang Cishun realized. As the sandstorm approached, the wind became stronger and there was more and more sand and dust in the air. When I raised my head and looked towards the sun, the sunlight was no longer dazzling, but had a hazy grayish-yellow look to it.

  But this time will not last long. Soon, City No. 88, swallowed by a sandstorm, will no longer be able to see the light of the sun.

  In fact, according to Zhang Cishun's original intention, he wanted to first arrange Jing Shuo's housing and transportation in Shangcheng District during this period, but Jing Shuo disagreed. He wanted to see Zhang Cishun walk into the research institute safe and sound.

  But the institute is already close at hand.

  "Be careful." Jing Shuo ordered, then covered his mouth and nose, and his figure quickly disappeared from the surroundings.

  Zhang Cishun is not worried about his safety. The power of the "Xun" core allows him to face any danger with calmness.

  Zuo Yan watched the interaction between the two people quietly, and then met Zhang Cishun's gaze and disappeared into the air.

  In the next period of time, Zuo Yan will provide him with personal protection. Until it was confirmed that he had completely and safely entered the institute's system.

  Now
  on the surface, Zhang Cishun is the only one.

  He looked at the place where Jing Shuo disappeared, then looked away, changed the box in his right hand to his left hand, and walked towards the research institute.

  The door to the institute is closed.

  But there was an identification device outside the door. Zhang Cishun took out Ning Jiancheng's ID card and swiped it, and the door opened.

  But it's not fully open, because there are two doors.

  The ID card only opened the outermost door for Zhang Cishun, but the inner door was still locked.

  There is a display screen on the metal wall on the left, which displays Ning Jiancheng's identity information.

  In the bottom display area, there is such a text: The reception staff is preparing, please wait patiently...

  "Put the gun on me first." While Zhang Cishun was waiting, Zuo Yan's deliberately lowered voice suddenly sounded in his ears. sound.

  Zhang Cishun was stunned for a moment, then naturally pushed up Ning Jiancheng's glasses on the bridge of his nose. When he lowered his hands, he quietly lifted the hem of his shirt.

  A metal object appeared vaguely as he moved, but quickly disappeared.

  This was Zhang Cishun's mistake. He almost forgot about the gun.

  Zhang Cishun thought he wouldn't wait too long, but he stood in such a small space for nearly twenty minutes!
  It wasn't until he was a little doubtful about life that he heard a beeping sound.

  The inner door opened.

  "Sorry, sorry, the work at hand is not finished yet."

  The woman who spoke was a woman with a kind of intellectual beauty, but her face was more tired. The clothes she was wearing were not the white clothes Zhang Cishun had in mind, but were similar to surgical gowns. There's even a pair of gloves on the hands!
  Although she was saying apologetic words, she didn't even look at Zhang Cishun during the whole process. Instead, she was working on the instruments on the wall.

  Zhang Cishun did not walk directly through the opened inner door, but waited for a while before stepping through.

  The other party had just finished the instrument at this time, put down his hand and looked towards Zhang Cishun.

  Zhang Cishun noticed that the corners of the other party's mouth pursed, and then relaxed quickly.

  "What's wrong?" he asked calmly, and then handed over Ning Jiancheng's ID card.

  The woman took the ID card, checked it on her watch, looked at the information that appeared, and then handed Zhang Cishun's ID card back and said with a wry smile: "I've been busy lately. I was confused and thought I had seen the wrong person."

  Zhang Cishun asked nonchalantly: "Why, is the information wrong?"

  The woman shook her head:

  "Yes, it's my problem. You should have heard about it, right? The urban area... Something has happened recently. Think tanks have transferred many researchers to their departments, transferring the pressure of staff shortages to our research institute. So after work,

  we have been reviewing the information of personnel who are suitable for transfer to us. . Maybe I confused your information with other people's...

  In short, everything is in a mess now, which makes my head feel big." "By the way

  , let me introduce myself. My name is Hot Spring. If nothing else, I’ll give you more advice in the days to come, partner.” the woman said.

  When she spoke, she had already taken off the mask hanging down on half of her face, leaving only her smiling eyes exposed.

  "Teach each other." Zhang Cishun replied.

  What he was worried about before happened. The transfer order was issued three days ago, but he only changed Ning Jiancheng's identity information to his own last night. But in fact, he didn't change anything, he just replaced the photo in the message with his own.

  What he was worried about was that during this time difference, someone would see the true information about Ning Jiancheng before he changed it, and leave an impression.

  Obviously, the woman named Hot Spring in front of me is one of them. However, perhaps due to her lack of impression and busy work schedule, she was not sure whether there was a memory error.

  Zhang Cishun missed Jing Shuo a little.

  Because if he were here, he would definitely be able to tell at a glance whether Wenquan had just lied.

  But now, Zhang Cishun can only rely on his own experience to judge.

  He felt that the other party was not lying.
