Is Amiya's intuition so sharp?
But Zhou Jinru didn't intend to admit it. He relied on vague impressions to judge. I'm afraid no one would believe it, not to mention that the incident in Saint Martin has never happened in the game.
"I just want to make Rhode Island stronger. We are struggling with the integration movement right now."
He hesitated and got over it.
Seeing that he didn't want to talk, Amiya didn't continue to ask. Dr. Kelsey once said that don't push the doctor too hard on some things, otherwise things will only be counterproductive.
The two came to Jian Lei. She was communicating with the staff at the publicity point. Looking at the height-size poster, Zhou Jinru suddenly understood that it was promoting a new product, but with the size of Brave New World, it was still Need to come to a community college to promote?
They should press down all-round advertisements and quickly complete the publicity work. Anyway, more than half of the industries in this city have the logo of Brave New World.
"They are promoting a brand new functional drink, which has a certain refreshing effect and is very affordable. In short, this is a product that serves the public. They just started promoting it yesterday. Some shopping stores on the market have corresponding counters. Whenever you come Citizens who come to the publicity point can receive a bottle for free.”
Zhou Jinru summarized the contents of the poster, and Jian Lei next to him handed over two bottles. Because the three of them came together, the staff did not ask any questions. It seemed that they did not care about the situation of repeated receipts.
"Just one sip and the pulse comes back?"
Zhou Jinru stared at the blue plastic bottle in his hand. He vaguely saw some colors of the sky. It was heavy, a bottle of 350 ml, and the advertising slogan was also very simple.
"The source, have a good day."
The price of the source is quite cheap, and even ordinary university students can afford it. Brave New World promises to recycle the bottle after drinking it, and if you still want to buy it, you can offset part of the purchase cost.
This is very similar to the marketing methods of those beverage manufacturers in the past.
Since she was not too thirsty, Amiya stuffed the fountain into her bag, while Jian Lei had already unscrewed the bottle cap, took a sip, and smacked his lips: "It's a little cold, a little sour and sweet, and it quenches the thirst pretty well. As for that, Refreshing, I haven’t felt it yet.”
"Brave New World should print a row of small words on the trademark, 'Please refer to the actual product.'"
Jian Lei took another sip: "You are quite interesting."
Seeing that she was not very resistant to this kind of energy drink, Zhou Jinru also learned to unscrew the source in his hand and took a sip. The cold liquid filled his mouth with a faint sweetness, and his taste buds felt the stimulation brought by the drink. , very much like the sugar-free drinks he once drank. After swallowing it, it was like an ice line sliding down the esophagus and flowing into the stomach bag, making his whole body shiver.
"Um?"
Just as he was about to speak, he saw a change in the corner of his eye. He suppressed the shock in his heart and said calmly: "I think it's better to drink less of this kind of thing. Energy drinks are for ordinary people. Warriors like Jian Lei, you, Drinking too much will affect the speed of neurological reactions.”
But Jian Lei didn't take it seriously and laughed: "You see, I drink like water now. I don't care about reaction speed for a long time. I am no longer a Colombian soldier."
She drank half the bottle in one breath, completely ignoring Zhou Jinru's objections. Amiya, who had been silent all this time, gently grabbed his sleeve and whispered: "Did the doctor discover anything?"
"Well, I feel a little bit better, Amiya, don't drink this kind of thing."
Zhou Jinru reached out to touch the little rabbit's head, his palm hanging in the air, but Amiya stared back fiercely.
"If your head is touched all the time, you won't grow taller."
Amiya explained seriously that she was indeed a little shorter now. If she could be as tall as Lapland, maybe no one would treat her as a child anymore.
Moreover, every time I look at the doctor, I have to raise my face. My neck will be tired if I look at him too much. He is really too tall.
Zhou Jinru retracted his palm in embarrassment, and his eyes fell on the reason on the panel. When he drank the drink, his reason quietly dropped a little. He thought he had touched something that could affect his reason, so he took another sip. , his eyes were fixed on the panel. Soon, his guess was confirmed, and his rationality declined firmly.
Staring at the drink in hand, what is causing the decline in sanity?
Zhou Jinru has figured out the situation of sanity decline very clearly. One is to actively extract sanity to improve his mental state. The other is to passively decrease when receiving damage from the Origin Stone. The third is to lose a little sanity when turning on talents. After he became elite, this one It has been hidden, which means that the only situations that can affect sanity now are the first two.
He didn't extract his sanity just now, so the result was the latter, something in the drink called the Source was consuming his sanity.
"I don't know what's in it, but there is a pharmaceutical company behind us."
Zhou Jinru went to the promotional stall and bought a box in his hand. Together with the bottle in Amiya's bag, he planned to send them all back to Rhode Island for testing. Members of Rhode Island were prohibited from drinking the drink until the results were obtained.
"I hope it's not too late."
Yesterday until late at night, Yue Jianye and Zi Lan did not come back, and Lapland and Mostima were nowhere to be found. Airblast returned to the hotel, as did Jiao Feng and others. It is not known whether they have come into contact with the source.
"Could it be that I'm too nervous?"
He lowered his head and murmured to himself until a pair of dark cotton boots appeared in his sight. He raised his head and saw a girl with long pink hair standing in front of him. Her hands were unconsciously holding the hem of her clothes, wearing a hat with KEE printed on it. A pair of furry pointed ears hung on his head, and the earphones hung around his neck. A pair of bright eyes were staring at him, as if he had a thousand words to say.
The white teeth gently shook the cherry-colored lower lip. Because of the cold, the delicate face was slightly red, and even small red blood vessels could be seen, and the two eyelashes were fluttering gently.
This is a frost leaf.
Wherever she appears, the temperature will drop unconsciously. Because of the special skills of Origin Stone, she has few friends. When she lived in Rhode Island, she mostly lived alone. Now she only has one friend in St. Martin, which is pretty good. A friend who, ironically, was once her enemy on the battlefield.
"Frost Leaf, I..."
"You don't need to say anything."
Shuangye interrupted Zhou Jinru's words without hesitation, with a very unfriendly tone: "I'm living a good life now, thank you for your kindness. I will graduate from high school here, then go to college, work in this free city, and look for My own dream.”
Jian Lei's face changed slightly. This is not the same as promised. How could this happen? Before the conversation started, the situation had already collapsed. She hurriedly stopped in front of Shuangye and shouted apologetically to Zhou Jinru: "I'm really sorry, she's in a bit of a bad state today. Why don't you come back another day? I'll have a good time with her." Let’s talk.”
Zhou Jinru sighed. He couldn't undo what happened now. If Jian Lei could calm Shuang Ye down, things might turn around.
At this moment, they were no longer in the mood to stay in the community college. The two of them walked out of the door one after another. Amiya suddenly said: "Miss Frostleaf may be just angry for a moment."
"I know."
Zhou Jinru responded with a wry smile. He had already mentally prepared himself for the situations he might encounter when facing the operator, such as being glared at and insulted. After all, the relationship between the operator and Rhode Island Pharmaceutical Company was only an employment relationship, and there was no relationship between the two. For a solid relationship, even if you resign or change jobs, you can only say that it's a good time to get together and a good break up.
If Shuangye finally decides not to join Rhodes Island, then Zhou Jinru will be sad for a while, and then he will find the whereabouts of the next operator. Life will go on. Everyone has their own ambitions and cannot force it.
Just like Hongdou who wants to fulfill his musical dream.
"Doctor, don't be discouraged. Although you have done many wrong and excessive things in the past, there are still many operators who respect you from the bottom of their hearts. After you came back, everyone has become much more active. I believe that everyone will come back one day."
Amiya kept cheering Zhou Jinru up. Even though it was just chicken soup, he still enjoyed it. Who makes the sales lady so cute? She couldn't help but want to pinch her face and hug her...
Um……
He quickly dismissed the strange thoughts in his heart. Could it be that the source can cause people to have evil thoughts, but after taking two sips, the side effects are so great?
"Let's go see Vina."
Zhou Jinru stopped a special car and went to Yinhu's apartment, and then rushed to nothing. He was told that Wei Na had returned to Tulip Street with Breeze a day ago.
Silver Fox stared at the box of fountain in his hand and said with interest, "Do you still like this thing?"
"No, this is a new product from Brave New World, have you heard about it?"
"I know a little bit, but I don't care too much. Why are you suddenly paying attention to their new products?"
Silver Fox folded his arms. She seemed to be slightly taller than Amiya. The two girls stood together, their eyes met, and sparks instantly flew out. Zhou Jinru had to make a long story short: "Go buy a few bottles and check it out." Regarding the ingredients, I drank a bottle and felt something was wrong. This box is going to be sent back to Rhode Island for testing. You know, we are experts in this area."
"Why should I listen to you? Just test it if you say..."
Silver Fox bared his teeth at Amiya and asked rudely.
"Check it out. If the problem can really be found, we can start cooperating, but we need more participants. A successful conspiracy must have many participants, right?"
Watching the man's leaving figure, Yin Hu gritted her teeth and immediately dialed the phone at hand, her voice as calm as usual, as if her previous anger was all a disguise.
"Find a way to get the original juice from the source, I say so, you do it!"
Snapped.
She tapped the phone hard and sat on the sofa, lost in thought.
The other side.
Zhou Jinru pulled Amiya onto the city bus. When the little rabbit got on the bus, the early warning machine in front of the bus door sounded a sharp alarm. The eyes of the people in the car with various meanings all fell on Amiya. on the body.
"Dip, special investigator of Rhine Life."
Zhou Jinru hugged Amiya and used his generous back to block the stinging eyes. He took out the magnetic card from his pocket and swiped it. The early warning machine immediately stopped working.
"Doctor, I'm fine."
Amiya responded to Zhou Jinru's concern. She moved but failed to break free from his arms, so she had to let him hold her in his arms.
Zhou Jinru chuckled and said: "Doctor Kelsey has told me repeatedly that I have the responsibility to protect the safety of the leader of Rhode Island. Although the Rhineland life is weak in St. Martin, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. After all, it is with the Colombian official As a cooperative scientific and technological research organization, as long as this city does not declare independence, Rhineland Life will definitely be respected accordingly."
This is what he wants from Silver Fox. We can't let the operators run away on two legs, right? At the critical moment, the tiger skin that pulls Rhine's life can still scare people.
St. Martin did not buy Rhode Island's account, but it was impossible to openly oppose Rhine Life. In addition, Silver Fox had been seeking to cooperate with Rhode Island. The two parties hit it off, and it was convenient for them to take advantage of Rhine Life's reputation.
Amiya was carried to the seat by Zhou Jinru. She sat inside, leaning against the doctor, and whispered: "I really hope that one day I can walk freely on this land."
"We have been here for too short a time, otherwise no one would dare to disrespect doctors unless they will never get sick. It's a pity that only dead people in this world will not get sick."
The warm sunshine shone on the little rabbit's face. She leaned on Zhou Jinru's shoulder and fell asleep slowly. Her fingers were still holding the corners of his clothes, for fear that when she woke up from the dream, everything would be nothing.
"Doctor, if you dare to leave again, I will hate you to death."
The murmur with pursed lips was like a solemn declaration, which fell in Zhou Jinru's ears. He gently tapped the tip of the little rabbit's nose, which was regarded as agreeing to her request.
…
"Oh, why are we here? There are so many Ursans. So is the Sunflower Street a street exclusive to Ursas?"
The detective girl cowered and hid beside the undead. She was inexplicably afraid of the Ursus people, fearing that they would suddenly let out a loud roar and charge towards them brandishing their battle axes.
"Because the largest underground black market in Saint Martin is here. The Ursus people are fierce and greedy. As long as they are willing to pay money, there is nothing that cannot be sold."
Mei asked curiously: "Including themselves?"
The undead was silent for two seconds before replying: "Yes, if there are enough benefits, they can betray their compatriots."
"What a terrible nation."
Mei sighed, suddenly woke up, and stared at the undead nervously: "Do you have that much money to buy information?"
If not, there is a beautiful girl beside him. Using her to offset the debt, the strong Ursus people will certainly not object, right?
When she thought of this, she couldn't help but her legs trembled, and she subconsciously wanted to run away from this terrible neighborhood.
"Even if I want to sell, they won't buy it. Human trafficking is a taboo, and Saint Martin officials will not let it go, and..."
The undead solemnly said: "I cannot insult those deceased names."
