"nothing."
Amiya left in a hurry, refusing to say anything. Zhou Jinru could feel the slight anger in her emotions, and she was angry about something.
He was sitting alone at his desk, staring at the photo frame placed in front of the computer. On it was a photo of him, Amiya, Kelsey and Keluciel, which was taken before leaving for St. Martin.
Opening today's material dispatch and seeing -99% familiarity, Zhou Jinru sighed. Rhode Island didn't have many fuel-efficient lamps. It seemed like he had to make a trip to the procurement center before the closed-door meeting in the afternoon.
After noon, Zhou Jinru took advantage of his break and came to the door of the purchasing center. Before he even entered the door, he heard the advertisement recorded by Kelu Xier. The magic sound hit his ears and broke his heart...
The shop owner's wife was lying comfortably behind the counter with her legs crossed, her recliner rocking, and a glass of sweet and sour soda in her hand. She didn't even notice Zhou Jinru entering the door.
"You can choose what you want. We support overdraft of two months' salary and support private customization. It's a small business and no credit is allowed."
boom!
Zhou Jinru raised his hand and slapped the -99% label on the glass cabinet. The landlady was so shocked that she almost fell off the recliner.
"B-Doctor?!"
Zhou Jinru frowned: "What's the matter?"
"Just a little thing, Miss Mel ordered a set of the latest equipment from me, but she doesn't have her salary yet..."
Zhou Jinru pointed to a few lines on the table: "Don't you already support an overdraft of two months' salary?"
Ke Lucille spread her hands: "But the equipment she wants requires half a year's salary to afford it."
“What about our own small loans?”
"She's not an operator yet, so she can't go through the formalities."
This is not Kelu Xier's problem. The efficiency of the personnel department is limited. He brought back many people this time and may not have time to enter the files into the system. The previous files cannot be used, so the matter was stranded.
Zhou Jinru waved his hand: "It's useless for you to ask me about this matter. She is the one who pays the bill, not me. Do you want me to give her my salary?"
But Lucille blinked: "Isn't it possible?"
In fact, it is not impossible.
After Mel connects with certain research topics in Rhode Island, the efficiency can indeed be improved a lot, but her personal intention is to continue to open a studio, which can theoretically promote the internal circulation of Rhode Island. In short, with her joining, There are many benefits for Rhode Island, and Zhou Jinru also hopes that she can get into the state as soon as possible. After all, there is a shortage of manpower.
"Okay, I'll use my own small loan to cover it first, and let Mel start work as soon as possible."
Zhou Jinru finally decided to compromise and prioritize the development of Rhode Island.
While filling out the form, he asked: "Is St. Martin still peaceful recently?"
Now that Rhodes Island is staying in the docking area of St. Martin, it is not yet time to set sail, and during the days when he is not on the ship, Lucille has learned more than most operators.
"It's quite peaceful. San Martin has calmed down now. Under the wise leadership of the acting mayor, businessmen and officials have strengthened their confidence in confronting Colombian officials. Everything is going well."
Zhou Jinru threw down the signature pen: "Normally, Colombia is a federal country, and it is their tradition for local forces to maintain their independence."
This form is not valid after it is filled out. It has to be sent to Amiya for signature before it can take effect. Zhou Jinru's signature will not be valid because he is the party involved.
"Is there anything else? If not, just go to the meeting."
"There's still one hour, don't be in a hurry, right?"
Zhou Jinru looked around and saw that there were actually just the two of them in the purchasing center, and the monitoring facilities were also under the control of Kelu Xier. This was her domain.
But Lucille pressed her slender fingers on the -99% label and whispered, "Don't you know what this means?"
Zhou Jinru did not answer directly: "So, you asked me to come here for a purpose?"
"In my personal studio."
"Let's go, I hope we made the right choice."
The landlady put down the drink in her hand and led Zhou Jinru into her personal studio. However, this was not the end. They passed through a long and narrow corridor. Different from the internal passage of Rhode Island, the rough inner wall was densely engraved with words. They were all characters that Zhou Jinru couldn't understand, and they looked like ghostly symbols.
“Every time I come here it makes my head tingle.”
Lucille complained.
"I hate this place more than you do."
They stood in front of a closed metal door with no lock or other means of opening the door.
The road ends here.
"I didn't expect that there was such a door inside Rhodes Island. Lucille, where is your achievement?"
But Lucille approached the door, touched the patterns carved on it, and whispered: "The result is these patterns. I have tried many methods to decipher the content during this period. It seems to tell a story."
Zhou Jinru also looked at these patterns and asked: "Then what?"
"You have to ask the doctor."
She raised her head and her eyes fell on Zhou Jinru's face. Miss Gorefiend, who was not scary at all, looked at him with a strange look.
Zhou Jinru shook his head and said, "I don't know anything."
"No, you know, even though those two people appeared by your side, they didn't say anything to you?"
"Who are you talking about?"
"That was many years ago. You, Dr. Kelsey, the Silver Fox, and two other people formed an adventure group. At that time, Dr. Kelsey was still very immature. You forgot everything. Okay, Seeker Brigade, do you still have any impressions?"
No, not at all.
Zhou Jinru's expression was dull. His memory was only from the moment before the time travel to when he appeared inside Rhode Island. He had no idea how many things happened during that period.
The only thing that is certain is that this is not the first time he has traveled through time. There was also a Mr. KFC in front of him.
"You can tell the result, I don't remember anything."
But Lucille took a deep breath: "I'm very worried about Kelsey now. She seems to be launching a plan, her own plan. The only person who can help her is you. Just look at the meaning of these patterns. Those who don’t understand, it has to be this way.”
She took out a flashlight and shone a strong light on the door, causing the pattern to change slightly and form characters.
"I can't understand these characters. Do you recognize them?"
Zhou Jinru stared at those words, stretched out his hand, stroked it gently, and whispered: "In the distant past, a disaster occurred on the earth. Monsters climbed up from under the ice. This part was missing. They built a ship The ship was called Genesis, and the sun rode in Genesis and destroyed the monster.”
"that's it?"
Zhou Jinru nodded: "That's all."
But Lucille nodded slightly: "It seems to be related to the teachings of the Sun Church."
