[Part 1·Soviet Palace]
There is a huge palace among the mountains in the distance.
Its base has four square and equilateral high walls, shaped like layers of cakes, divided into nine stepped palaces. Above that are the opposite twin towers, with Albert Einstein on one side. The statue with its arms pointed toward the sky, but the statue on the other side was destroyed. It seemed to be a portrait of a certain Soviet leader.
It is the Palace of Soviets -
——The main building of the Albert Research Station.
The armed train circled the winding railway all the way down and entered the spiral pit of the Grand Canyon.
Meteor leaned against the car window and saw the lights and candles at the bottom of the deep valley, as well as the large statues of the Twin Towers.
He tugged at Xueming's clothes and asked questions like a curious baby.
"Brother Ming, why should a scientific research station be built in a place like this? The environment here is too harsh. Aren't scientists all delicate and frail men of letters? What if a terrible monster escapes from Niflheim? Don’t all these highly skilled talents have to die?”
"Because the antimatter project requires this kind of environment." Jiang Xueming pulled Meteor to his side and pointed at the city's scientific research listening base station: "Meteor, look - our motherland also has this kind of equipment, which is about 8,000 to 10,000 meters underground. , can isolate most of the clutter coming from the universe, and can listen and observe antimatter in this absolutely quiet environment. In addition, we also have an antimatter satellite to cooperate with it. Its name is [Wukong] - —Amazing, right?"
Meteor stuck next to Xueming and asked curiously: "Brother Ming, where did you learn this knowledge?"
"Read more and read more newspapers. I only know a little bit." Jiang Xueming explained: "The name of the Albert Scientific Research Station should refer to Einstein. During the Cold War, in addition to nuclear physics, the Soviet Union wanted to In front of the gate of the Kingdom of Death, a trace of divine power was stolen, and this scientific research station is their last ruins."
Meteor said: "But it failed."
Jiang Xueming: "It's not it, it's them - Meteor. They are never a certain flag, a certain symbol or a certain object. They are a group of people. It is human beings who created this city."
Meteor asked in surprise: "Isn't this scientific research station built by BOSS and the giants?"
"It is a typical Soviet architectural style." Jiang Xueming's dark eyes reflected the blue light of the building complex: "There is no porch road for giants to pass. The size of the window sills and door openings of the palace buildings are all designed for humans. It looks like In Armenia, a remote region of the Transcaucasus, there are many Soviet-era architects and designers showing artistic sentiment in this small country.”
At this point, the train is about to pull into the station.
At the bridge approach to the platform, you can still see the human-shaped staircases on both sides.
Jiang Xueming said: "Look, this is the shape of the socialist ladder in Yerevan."
Bu Liuxing asked: "Brother Ming, how come you know a little bit about everything?"
Jiang Xueming denied: "No, I had to do decoration for [JoeStar] before, so I took the time to study the historical architectural styles of various countries. The Soviet people's aesthetics revealed an aloof and cold temperament, which was impressive. I Once you see it, you’ll never forget it.”
As the train slowly stopped in front of the platform of the scientific research station, after more than forty hours of trekking, everyone finally arrived at the first destination of the trip.
As soon as Jiang Xueming got off the train, he saw thousands of soldiers rushing up from both sides of the lonely railway track, once again crowding the armed train. Within a minute, its iron wheels began to spin again, rushing towards the Red Star Hill. Endless wilderness.
Su Ling and Xueming said: "These people are the soldiers of the Guangling Snow Mastiff Unit. We took a ride with them - this train should be the last one. Before the BOSS survives the harvest season, except for what I mentioned Those two transport teams, no other trains will come here."
Xueming: "I understand. What should we do now? Leader?"
"I'm going to buy something. You wait here for the contact person." Su Ling hugged Xiao Qi, snatched the apprentice away from the handsome man, and captured Xiao Qi's soul back to the cold reality.
"Let's split up and see you at the Red Nail Hotel." Xia Xia grabbed the sleeve of 3301 and said to Xueming: "Don't go too far along the railway line. There is no satellite signal or electromagnetic wave signal base station here. If you want to contact us, just contact us. Landline calls only. Follow your contact person."
The two VIPs rushed out in a hurry and disappeared without a trace after a while.
Only Xueming and Liuxing were left on the huge platform, as well as a pile of luggage.
Bu Liuxing made an assumption and tried to figure out the thoughts of the VIPs from the most malicious angle.
"Brother Ming, is there a possibility, I mean is there a possibility - Teacher A Ling simply didn't want to carry her luggage and found an excuse to go shopping."
Xueming picked up the luggage of the two distinguished guests and walked towards the exit of the station.
"There's no need to make assumptions. They made it very clear and it's written on their faces."
Ah Xing scratched his head and grabbed Xia Xia's big iron box. He couldn't move it for a while, but then he saw that he was working hard, his face turned red, and he finally picked up the smooth rectangular iron box, which was over 1.5 meters tall. In his arms, he walked forward tremblingly.
As soon as the two people left the station, they saw Yanwuping, the training ground in front of the Palace of Soviets.
There are not many people on the Mendong Avenue open to traffic, most of them are security guards. The city is subject to cold winds all year round, and the outdoor environment is not suitable for human survival.
I saw a skinny young man approaching Xueming and said hello.
"Hello, are you a comrade from Jiujie Station?"
He was a boy, only in his mid-twenties. Xueming had to call him brother when he saw him.
This man has a timid expression and cautious words. His eyes are like two jaspers, his head is full of dry blond hair, his cheeks are sunken, his eyebrows are protruding, and his temples are bulging.
It's like being in a state of neurasthenia all year round. You have to grit your teeth and persevere, but you can't eat high-quality fat. The chewing muscles on both sides of the skull are developed, but there isn't much oil on the cheeks.
Xueming stretched out his hand: "Hello, comrade, what do you call me?"
It seems that this is the liaison officer that Teacher A Ling mentioned.
"Diamond." The little brother stretched out his hand first, then hesitantly and nervously took his hand back, and wiped it on the cotton sweater. As if it was not clean enough, he took out a bottle of wine from the clothes and used the wine to wash away the sludge on his hands. It was so cold in the cold wind that it turned red, and the cracked texture could be seen. Finally, I held Xueming's warm hand.
Xueming: "Are you Russian?"
Diamond was stunned for a moment——
——So he said his Russian name.
"Dear Davari! My name is Avdei Vladimir Grunia Veronka Dymonov!"
Xueming: "Okay Brother Dai, my surname is Jiang, you can just call me Xiao Jiang."
Diamond immediately emphasized to Xueming: "Davari, do you think my name is too long and too complicated to remember?"
Xueming and Liuxing said, "Just call me Brother Dai."
Meteor smiled and said: "Hello, Brother Dai! My name is Bu Meteor! What's your zodiac sign?"
Diamond didn't think much about it and talked to Xueming.
"Xiao Jiang, come with me. There is no broadcast system here. Let's go to the place agreed upon by Yin Asong."
Who is Yin Asong?
When Meteor heard this strange name, he started to get lost in the lake.
Until Xueming figured out some clues from the other party's Russian accent.
He and Meteor explained.
"This is another transliteration of [Jason·Jason]. Brother Dai is Russian. There are regional differences in interpretation. It is normal for them to like to decode words."
"Oh! I thought I had a new friend!" Meteor hurried forward holding his luggage.
The three of them ran into the wind and snow and headed to the East Street of the Soviet Palace Training Ground.
Diamond was a talkative man. He was 1.88 meters tall and looked like a tough poplar tree in the strong wind. He took out his velvet hat from his satchel, handed it to the two passengers, and then started talking about Jason.
"After Yin Asong returned to the scientific research station, he was still as weird as before. His illness has not been cured yet."
Xueming put a velvet hat on her head and stuffed her earmuffs into the thick fur collar.
"He has a mental illness? Are you talking about neurosis? That really hasn't been cured."
Just as Meteor was about to speak, poisonous ice flowers flew into his mouth, causing him to spit several times.
Diamond covered his mouth and nose and shouted loudly: "Not only is he neurotic, Davari - this guy is also delusional."
Xueming asked: "Tell me more details?"
The three people's marching efficiency was very low. Without the protection of Teacher A Ling, Xueming and Meteor felt it was difficult to move forward in this terrifying mountain.
Diamond took a deep breath and walked about 300 meters, finally having a chance to speak.
"He has always imagined that there is a beloved girl waiting for him here."
"What?" Xueming's eyes were out of focus, and it was difficult to understand the meaning of this sentence: "What did you say? Brother Dai?"
Diamond acted as a reply reader: "I say! Yin Asong! This time he returned to the scientific research station and went to Hongxing Mountain to find his sweetheart, but that girl does not exist at all! I have never seen this person before!"
Xueming stuck to Brother Dai's side and wanted to ask clearly.
"You mean, Wendy Mills is fake? Didn't exist in the first place?"
Diamond didn't know what to say. He had never even heard of the name. He just told Xueming about Jason's past.
"Three years ago, he came here alone to purchase equipment and make clothes. He was going to the Red Star Mountain outpost to complete the VIP trial mission. But for some reason, he always said that there was a waiter beside him to help him with his work. ——People at the scientific research station think he is sick."
Diamond pointed to his head and tapped his temples with the back of his fingers.
"Sick brain."
This is not a curse word——
——More like stating the facts calmly.
"Yin Asong is a good man. He is older than me. When I was discouraged, he told me many historical stories. He said that I was a brave and barbaric Russian and a descendant of the Soviet Union. I would definitely be able to defeat the wind and snow. ——But the girl or the Soviet Union he talked about may have died before I was born. I have no spiritual vision and cannot see the ghosts in these history books."
Xueming was surprised in her heart. If the cook's sweetheart just disappeared and could be seen alive and dead, there were traces of it.
What if this big girl Wendy is really, as Diamond said, a phantom in Jason's mind?
He only hesitated for a moment, then continued to move forward firmly.
What else can be done?
Take it one step at a time.
[Part②·Fake love, fake love, fake AK]
Go to the hotel and ask for details first. If the secondary goal of this trip cannot be completed, there is still a main goal, which is to help Jason perform the unfinished mission.
Diamond walked the walk and talked the talk.
"I am a prospector in the Public Works Section, and my usual job is to dig holes. I have been drilling holes in this place for thirteen years. In fact, the Public Works Section and the entire agency are already in a semi-strike state. Except for the antimatter interception research institute, they are still operating. , the engineering career has long been suspended. When I was born, my mother died in childbirth. My father thought that I would not survive seven months, so he threw me into the Red Nail Hotel. The boss took me in, and I worked with people doing nothing. Meaningful things.”
Xueming: "It's meaningless?"
"It's literally meaningless. Most of the industrial facilities here have been acquired by Aohen Mingde. The coal used for boiler heating has been replaced by nuclear power. Our new generation can't find suitable jobs, and the talents in scientific research institutions have all been replaced." They are brought in from outside. Occasionally, some people will go to Tianqiong Station to study and seek spiritual enlightenment, and never come back. But the Albert Research Station needs people, even those who are just hanging around and waiting to die." Diamond's tone was very sad, his expression Qu Zhengrong: "If the population of the entire scientific research station falls below a certain threshold, the terrifying spiritual pressure from Niflheim will destroy the lonely spiritual world of the researchers at the scientific research station - we are like surrounding them. They have built a human wall, and Ao Mingde has sent us materials and currency, and brought in fresh movies and games, just to prevent us from leaving here."
Brother Dai opened a wind path in front, allowing the two juniors to hide behind his tall and thin body.
"If we leave, I'm afraid that the Soviet Palace, which has a history of more than 70 years, will become a ghost town and a historical site many, many years from now. Although I don't know who built it. , To be honest, I feel confused every time I see it. It existed before I was born, and maybe after I die, I don’t know what it is used for.”
Xueming asked emphatically: "That Yin Asong, also known as Jason - did you know him three years ago?"
Diamond replied immediately.
"Yes, I have been working very hard. I am afraid that one day Aoheng Mingde will become weak and unable to send out materials and money. I am afraid that our site will die the fastest - it is the closest place to human habitability. There are hundreds of kilometers of local trade transfer stations.”
"I kept digging, digging, digging with the drill bit, hoping to dig out more gabbro and send it to Aohui Mingde as the base material for the pyroxene project, so that I can send some of it. Use it to prevent the station system from becoming a victim when it encounters huge risks. When a company encounters a financial crisis, isn't the first department to be laid off the ones that are left to die? Do you think that's right? This is what I said in the movie Learned.”
"But my work team and foreman didn't understand my ideas. They said I was [Diamond who only knows how to drill holes] - they isolated me, ostracized me, and treated me as another kind of scab. Every time it was time to pay The day I can exchange gabbro for more money and supplies, someone will come to blackmail me and threaten me with knives and sticks.”
"Three years ago, Yin Asong helped me get rid of these people. At that time, I saw him beat up sixteen people with his bare hands, but he told me that it was all done by Wendy Mills."
"I don't understand. I just think this guy is weird and powerful."
Walking onto East Street, with the protection of the buildings, the wind became lighter.
Xueming returned the velvet hat to Brother Dai.
"Thanks."
Diamond put away his hat and continued to lead the way.
"You're welcome, Davari - I can speak Chinese and have studied it for a long, long time. I know that China and the Soviet Union are brothers, but you don't seem to like Russia very much. I haven't figured out the difference between the Soviet Union and Russia yet. Wait for me If I have the opportunity to study in the Big Library, I will definitely figure it out."
Xueming wanted to say something, but couldn't.
Diamond continued: "Yin Asong told me the same thing at the time. If you have troubles or difficulties, you can ask the Chinese for help. You like to count favors rather than using money to compensate. You are smart, cunning, gentle and cute. Smart The point is that favors cannot be calculated. If you can take advantage of something, you will never let it go. The lovely thing is that as long as you accept the favor, you will definitely remember it. If you don't live up to the favor, you will probably feel guilty for a long time. "
Meteor immediately said with a smile: "Absolutely! Brother Dai! If anyone dares to bully you in this world! I will be the first one not to agree!"
The three of them walked towards the Red Nail Inn.
Diamond continued.
"The last time Yin Asong came to this place, he bargained with people in the city to buy chariots and winter clothes. After various work groups were suspended, there were also craftsmen in the field of food, clothing, housing and transportation who were struggling to make ends meet. The prices offered to outsiders were all Slaughtering customers and killing pigs - he knew these tricks, so he made his own cold clothes and asked me to go to the steel mill to ask someone to get an old car. This car was obviously repaired by Yin Asong and I, but he said it was Wendy ·Mills is clever and handy. The clothes we are wearing are all made by Yin Asong, but he says they are Wendy Mills and Hui Zhilanxin - in short, he often talks to the air, he kisses the air, and embraces the air."
At this point, Diamond paused.
"Occasionally I can still hear the sound of him sleeping with the air in the hotel."
Jiang Xueming's brain shut down for a while.
"What exactly do you mean?"
Diamond blushed, like an inexperienced boy who had never seen a strange girl before.
"That's what it means."
After saying this, the eldest brother quickly walked forward and knocked on the door of the Red Nail Hotel.
A hot warm air surged out from the door, and as soon as Diamond entered, he was grabbed by a big hand.
I saw a big man with a fat head and big ears, wearing a white vest and overalls, grabbing Diamond.
"Isn't this our scab Diamond?!"
The big man grinned widely, holding a cigarette between his fingers, and there were vegetable leaves and shredded meat among his yellow teeth.
"How many more rocks have you dug this month? How much money have you earned? Are you going to use money to insult us?"
His thick arms grasped Diamond's neck tightly and he questioned aggressively.
"Diamond? Why did you choose a Western name? Are you like a sparkling diamond? Or have you become a lackey of capitalism? You have to work hard for a big company that is proud and moral, like a walking zombie! Morning! Have we forgotten our lofty ideals?!"
Diamond looked like a chicken being strangled by the neck, and his face turned red.
"Let go...let me go...let go..."
He feebly slapped the strong man's arm, feeling the brutal and powerful power of the working class.
The strong man just pursed his lips and asked with innocent eyes.
"Can't hear! Can't hear at all! Do it again! Can't hear!"
Jiang Xueming took out a gun from his pocket——
——The moment when the AK12 was revealed.
About thirty-one of the people on the first floor of the small hotel pulled out firearms from under the table and pointed them at the strange guests outside the door in the snow.
In the hands of these sloppy men, they all held AK-47s with stamped receivers and mahogany holders, which were very old.
When people saw the guy in Xueming's hand, they started screaming.
"What kind of freak is that?!"
"That gas guide! That handguard! That Picatinny rail!"
"Why would someone add so many tactical modifications to AK?!"
"Oh my God! Gun Jesus! What kind of extremely evil devil is this!"
Meteor didn't dare to take a breath. They didn't have bulletproof vests, Morpho clothes, or heavy armor. The more than thirty guns in the hotel could definitely kill them.
Xueming first put away the gun and talked to Meteor.
"Relax, the things in these people's hands are just models. There are no bullets in the gun, and there is no complete firing structure - they are just made of a pile of wood and rotten iron."
Meteor looked carefully and could occasionally see the cold sweat of guilt on the faces of these bluffing guys.
The strong man at the head took out his knife, held Diamond's neck, and said coldly to Jiang Xueming.
"Are you also from Jiujie Station? You are not welcome here, so get out."
Xueming took out his stick and was about to beat someone.
Meteor immediately shouted: "Put my friend down first!"
The strong man immediately said: "Is this guy your friend? Diamond! You actually became friends with the passengers at Jiujie Station? Oh my god! I can't believe it! You can actually do such a thing?! Deceptive friendship is painful The trauma, false sympathy is a sharp poisonous arrow! You betrayed our hearts!"
Diamond's nails dug two red marks on the strong man's arm, but he was still speechless.
The strong man continued to scold.
"First you dug holes in the mines and stole the heritage of the Soviet ancestors, and now you have to associate with these shameless and shameless passengers. How many bad things have you done? Diamond! How many times are you going to hurt us comrades?"
He put Diamond down and spat to his heart's content.
"Our supplies have decreased again this month! Do you know! Ao Mingde is exploiting us in this way! It's because of you! Because you sent gabbro to the station - these greedy guys want to You promote yourself as a labor idol and want us to work in the mines! Otherwise we will starve and die!"
Diamond was finally able to breathe. He just felt that these compatriots were unreasonable. They seemed to be breathing dioxin for a long time and living in an area with abnormal spiritual pressure. They were almost crazy.
"No, no, no! That's not the case!"
Xueming stepped forward with a stick, but Diamond immediately stopped him.
"No! No! Don't! Davari family! Don't hurt them - they are just like Yin Asong! They are sick! If we live in this place for twenty years, we will all get sick!"
Right now, right now.
Jason slowly walked down from the second floor.
His face was gloomy, as if he could suck all the good things into those vicious eyes.
The men on the first floor immediately put down their arrogance when they saw this fierce god, as if they had been beaten up more than once by this little bourgeoisie from the West.
Just the sound of Jason's footsteps on the solid wooden floor on the first floor can silence these noisy "comrades".
Xueming immediately started packing his luggage and handed one of the bags to Jason.
When Jason saw Diamond, he just nodded, took the baggage, checked the cold clothes, and talked to Xueming.
"Diamond didn't tell you anything strange, did he?"
Xueming has always said what he has to say.
"He said you are a two-dimensional person, and Wendy Mills is the virtual idol in your head."
