Chapter 1283 - Why didn“t you just ask me?

Chapter 1283 Why didn“t you just ask me?

Being stared down by Sun Jiao made Jiang Chen somewhat uncomfortable, so he touched his nose to hide the awkwardness, then he asked with a guilty conscience, “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing,” Sun Jiao shook her head, “I just wonder if I have to add another pair of chopsticks at home.”

“No, I don’t need to eat. I just need to replace my battery regularly.”

As Lilith spoke, she grabbed her clothes and was about to show Sun Jiao the battery slot on her chest.

Lin Lin, who was standing next to her, immediately grabbed her hand and stopped her from exposing herself. Xiaorou also reached out, but she covered Jiang Chen’s eyes instead.

“It’s time to eat …Hmm? What are you all doing?”

Yao Yao, in an apron, came into the living room. She saw Jiang Chen whose eyes were covered by Xiaorou, and at Lilith, with a poker face. She blinked in confusion, not really understanding what had happened.

“Nothing, I just wanted to show the location of the battery, but she stopped me,” Lilith spoke to Yao Yao and said seriously.

…

Although Lilith said she didn’t need to eat, the kind-hearted Yao Yao prepared a pair of chopsticks for her.

Lilith took a bowl of rice from Yao Yao expressionlessly and went to sit next to Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen didn’t know if it were an illusion but he could feel that even if she didn’t show any expressions on her face, she was still very happy that she could sit at the dinner table with everyone.

Even though he himself thought that speculating on the thought of ​​a program was a bit stupid anyway…

At the dinner table, Lin Lin explained Lilith’s identity to everyone.

Sun Jiao had heard about Lin Lin’s recent work. When she heard that Lilith was number X71291, Sun Jiao’s reaction was similar to that of Jiang Chen’s, and all her emotions were written on her face.

In some ways, the two were really similar.

After lunch, Lilith accompanied Yao Yao and Xiaorou and took the plates to the kitchen. There, they washed the plates clean, and then returned to the living room. In the living room, they entangled themselves with Jiang Chen who was sitting on the sofa and reading a book.

“When will you take me to the other world?” Lilith looked at Jiang Chen and asked.

“After a few days. I have some things to deal with here… what happened? Are you in a hurry?” Jiang Chen asked.

“I’m in a hurry.” Lilith nodded expressionlessly. Then she blinked and a glimmer of eagerness appeared in her pupils for half a second. “In a hurry to get into a raid.”

Jiang Chen froze slightly before he suddenly understood. One of the reasons Lilith wanted to go the modern world was that, it was fed up with watching as an outsider and wanted to participate in Godly Land as a player.

But is it cheating to let advanced artificial intelligence play?

As if she had guessed what Jiang Chen was thinking, she added expressionlessly, “Rest assured, I’ll only participate in the game as a player, and I will not use any means outside the rules to change the server data. It’s boring. ”

“I’m not worried about this,” Jiang Chen shook his head and said with a smile, “It’s just a little surprising.”

At this point in time, as the only large-scale immersive VR online games, it had actually only accounted for a small part of the Future Technology’s virtual reality network. Especially now that Future Technology was developing a large-scale space-themed online game with the Milky Way as the background. Even if Lilith ruined Godly Land, it would only cost him a few hundreds of millions at most.

“Surprising?” Lilith looked at Jiang Chen expressionlessly. “Well… this kind of thing doesn’t matter. Since you are not worried about this, can you take me there?”

“You’ve waited for so many years. Can you not wait another four or five days?” Jiang Chen gave her a side eye.

“You can send me to that world first and then come back; it should be easy for you. Rest assured, I am very obedient.” In order to strengthen her persuasion in this sentence, Lilith restarted the emoticon function, which was originally shut off to save power, and she made an “I’m super obedient” expression.

Jiang Chen was unmoved by this, but his mouth twitched.

“You know this is impossible.”

In any case, he would not leave her alone in that world.

Lilith let out a helpless sigh, she knew she had no chance to persuade him.

“Well, then can you tell me what are you going to do in the next few days?”

“I’m investigating some things related to Pan-Asia Cooperation’s space projects,” Jiang Chen said nonchalantly as glanced at Lilith. “You should have heard that Pan-Asia Cooperation had a research station on Mars. I want to know about that. The more detailed the information, the better. ”

“Oh, that,” Lilith nodded with the same expresssionless state, looked at Jiang Chen, and said, “Why didn’t you just ask me?”

…

NASA headquarters.

A group of workers wore headphones and worked busily and nervously at the computer desk. Behind this group, in addition to Bolden and the Deputy Director of NASA, several FBA agents in grey suits could be seen pointing around.

Intelligence experts appeared at NASA, a scene that was rare in the history of UA spaceflight.

The reason why this happened was due to an incident that happened a few days ago.

Just a few days ago, several UA astronauts, stranded in the Mars colony, made their routine video call to their families. It was done on a monthly basis and under the supervision of Celestial Trade staff.

While the call was in progress, NASA staff members accompanying the astronaut’s relatives unexpectedly discovered that the astronaut named Jenny seemed to be using this opportunity to send a call for help subtly.

This phenomenon was discovered by Jenny’s family and they notified the NASA staff. Consequently, this immediately caught the attention of the authorities.

Jenny’s colleagues retrieved the record of her video call with her family members, played it over ten times, and found some unusual spots. After Bolden reported the incident, the authority sent FBA intelligence experts to assist in the investigation.

Sure enough, with the help of professionals, they immediately discovered where the problem was.

“Pay attention to the frequency of her blinking, fast blinking means short sound, and slow blinking means long sound. This is Morse code. Compare frame by frame, pay attention to every action and every keyword. Don’t let go of any details. ”

Soon, a code list of dots and dashes were transcribed.

Glancing at the password table, the intelligence expert from the FBA immediately picked up a pencil and scribbled down the translation result on another piece of paper.

“071, danger, new species,” Holding onto the paper, the intelligence expert walked next to Bolden and the FBA director. “Several possible errors have been deleted. The keywords that she repeatedly emphasized were these three.”

“Danger and new species are well understood. It’s likely Celestial Trade had disrupted another part of the ecosystem on Mars, but what does 071 mean?” The FBA director frowned slightly, then he said inexplicably.

Bolden’s brow scrunched slightly.

He vaguely felt that number was familiar, but he couldn’t remember where he had heard it.

His eyes moved around the room. When his eyes fell on the face of a black colleague, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately looked at the FBA director.

“Mine 071… I remember it! Remember the James incident? The black employee who was killed by Devil Worms? I remember seeing in a report that he was exploring groundwater reserves at Mine 071.”

Because it was news in his field of work, and because he was a black man, the incident left a strong impression on Bolden.

After the FBA director heard Bolden’s words, he appeared stunned.

“The Devil Worm… Mine 071… new species, she means that Celestial Trade was again attacked by Martian species while they were developing Mine 071? And this time it was a new species other than the Devil Worm?”

“The same incident happened twice in the same place. Why are they so attached to Mine 071? Unless there is something there that is worth their attachment…”

When Bolden raised his head, he looked at the FBA director, who was also looking at him, and they both saw the unusualness in each other’s eyes.
