Lin Yunlai was stunned for a moment and handed the photo album to Zhang Tianzhao. Zhang Tianzhao flipped through a few pages and noticed a photo showing that the photo was taken three years ago. This child should be about five years old, but she still looks over one year old in the last photo of the album.
Zhang Tianzhao forced a smile and said, "They are quite similar." He handed the photo album to Bai Zhi, "Look, if you have a daughter, she will probably look like this."
Bai Zhi took it in her hand and opened it, inhaling gently. The little girl in the photo really looked like her. She carefully read the photo album from beginning to end and said with a smile, "It's really similar. No wonder people in Lu saw Confucius." You might mistake him for Yang Hu."
"Every Lidou smiles are exactly the same." Brother Xun put the photo album back solemnly, "Bai Zhi, what is your real name, and where is your home?"
"Gu Baizhi, a native of Shanghai. Where does your family come from?" Baizhi thought he might be a relative from her mother's side, so she politely went through the process of recognizing relatives.
"The child's mother is from Xijing. I have never heard of her having relatives in Shanghai." Brother Xun smiled reluctantly, "It seems that they look alike by chance."
"Do you have any recent photos of your beloved? I really want to see how she looks when she grows up." Bai Zhi also noticed that there were no bigger photos, and her heart was beating fast.
"The baby died when she was two years old." Brother Xun's eyes were slightly red. "The child born after her mother remarried was healthy and fine."
"My condolences." Bai Zhi took two steps forward, heading towards the door. Zhang Tianzhao reached out and took her. The conference table was on the other side.
Bai Zhi was in a trance. She didn't listen at all to what Hai Fengqiu and Hong Xing said. She had never thought that Gu Tianbai, she, Xiao Qi, and Wang Chengpeng were all test-tube babies. She has not learned about it specifically, but she is generally aware of an important point in the process: in order to ensure the success rate, multiple embryos are often frozen.
Brother Xun's daughter looks really like her, so there's a good chance she's her sister. This matter has something to do with Zhang Tianzhao's aunt, and it also has something to do with her. Zhang Tianlie did not control her for fun, he must have wanted to study the changes in her body. She was the only one to survive to adulthood, and she is still alive and well. Aunt Shen must especially want to know why she can survive. Letting her sisters be born is the most convenient and effective way.
Brother Xun and Aunt Shen have a deep relationship. Bai Zhi raised her eyes to look at Brother Xun. Brother Xun was also looking at her, his mood had recovered, and he smiled politely at Bai Zhi.
Lin Yunlai sat at the other end of the table, holding a cigarette and smelling it under his nose, all the while looking at Brother Xun. Xiaoman kept blinking and making faces at Bai Zhi from the opposite side. Bai Zhi turned a blind eye to her. Xiao Man played for a while, lowered his head and raised his mouth, twirling his long curly hair with his fingers.
Haifengqiu had no intention of selling the magic potion formula. In fact, he had no intention of selling the finished product. Don't say he doesn't have big blue, he just has medium blue. As soon as he takes it out, the other three will know what's going on. The opponent in the negotiation actually knows your background very well. What else can you do except not sell?
Hong Xing persuaded her for a long time, but Hai Fengqiu stood firm. The most he said was two words: "No sale."
Hong Xinglan helplessly looked at the five people across from him with different expressions and the same firm stance, and said: "I will give you a way to improve my abilities in exchange. Think about it, you have more than 70,000 people in District 1, men, women, old and children. A master. We will be able to build a country in the last days, just fight wherever you point."
"It's so easy to use, you Xijing must have promoted it a long time ago." Haifengqiu pointed at Xiaoman, "You came out to negotiate and brought a girl with no powers at all, is it to prove that those who stay in Xijing are all masters? "
"I have spatial powers." Xiaoman jumped up and retorted, "Which of your eyes saw that I don't have any powers?"
"There used to be a girl in our District 1 who had very powerful spatial powers. However, the fluctuations in her powers were very obvious. Unlike you, there were no fluctuations at all." Haifengqiu and Manzi were not friends with each other, so they spoke very directly. , "How about you show us your superpower?"
Xiaoman put her hand on the conference table. After a few seconds, her expression changed. After a few more seconds, the sweat fell from her forehead. Brother Rong asked in surprise: "What's wrong?"
"The space power is gone." Xiaoman's face turned pale. Brother Rong was stunned for a moment, and his expression also changed.
What an innocent and cute girl, what a simple and straightforward pig teammate! Xiaoman, you found out that your powers can't be used anymore, why don't you tell me later behind someone else's back? There is no one in the citizen team who is professional in deception and abduction! Hong Xing covered his face and glanced through his fingers at the girl Bai Zhi who kept a polite smile the whole time. He had no experience in this, but people would often trick him.
Last time, I didn't give him a good look during the whole process, so I gave him a magic potion. He was so stunned that he threw himself into the trap, knocked him unconscious and took him away. He simply cut off his retreat in Area 2, fell out with his ally Wang Chengpeng, and found himself not just two, but a whole bunch of enemies who liked to target him in a shady manner!
After a half-day trip to Xijing, the girl waved her hand to drain away his powers, and then dropped a bottle of magic potion to lure him into a trap. Now I'm sitting across from you, and I'm extremely honest. If he said that he was the one who was deceived, his parents probably wouldn't believe it.
The disappearance of Xiao Man's space power just confirmed one thing from the side: the power improvement method that Hong Xing used in exchange was by no means as easy to popularize as he described. Since Hong Xingluan's method cannot be promoted, there is nothing to regret if it cannot be replaced. Hai Fengqiu easily took out the cigarettes and distributed them to everyone. The negotiation was over. Next, he had to settle the kidnapping account with Hong Xing.
Peipao's knock on the door was very light. Yue Dongting went over to open the door, and there was his little cousin outside the door. Yue Dongting turned around and shouted: "Bai Zhi, I'm looking for you."
With sweat on his forehead, Liu Yuenian brought in two one-meter-high hauling bags, "Tianbai asked me to find them for you."
"Thank you, Brother Yuenian." Bai Zhi took out a handkerchief and gave it to him, "Come in and sit for a while. Third brother helped Xiao Qi go to the Shanghai Botanical Garden to find samples. He will probably be back soon."
"Okay." Liu Yuenian took the handkerchief and wiped his sweat, "How about you take the day off tomorrow and let's go see Fei Ying together?"
"If something happens tomorrow, you have to go alone." Bai Zhi pressed softly on the two hauling bags, "What are they?"
"Clothes." Yuenian held the clothes bag and nodded to greet the people at the conference table. Bai Zhi instructed him to put the clothes bag in the small compartment behind the two cabinets, and then put the two big bags into his backpack. . Yuenian flicked the small bag around Bai Zhi's waist, then came out and found a seat by the door to sit down. When Bai Zhi made tea for him, she also made tea for everyone.
Hai Fengqiu and Hong Xingluan each held a hot tea cup at the moment, practicing their new skill of hurting people with the eye knife. Zhang Tianzhao is relatively familiar with Brother Xun, and Lin Yunlai gets along well with them. The two of them had a good time with Brother Xun to reminisce about old times and learn about each other's ins and outs.
Xiaoman found that his powers couldn't be used, and he lay on the conference table and refused to move. Please be comforted clearly written on his frustrated shoulders.
The three of them came together with Hong Xingluan and were related to Zhang Tianzhao's aunt. Bai Zhi instinctively resented anyone and anything related to Aunt Shen, and could not go to comfort Xiao Man. She went back to her seat to sort out the forms and clear the table.
Yue Dongting also came back with a teacup in his arms. With Hong Xing around, there had to be someone closer to Bai Zhi.
Seeing them chatting, Liu Yuenian walked over to Bai Zhi holding a tea cup and said, "Why don't you have a computer in your office?"
"We don't have much to do, and we can still handle it manually. We have been given a few computers to support the laboratory." At this time, it is very pleasant to have an unfamiliar acquaintance to talk to about random gossip, Yue Dongting said with a smile. , "Computers often break down recently. Didn't you go into the city today to search for computer spare parts?"
Liu Yuenian changed the tea cups back and forth and looked up at the lights on the ceiling. The current was not very stable, and the lamp would flash every once in a while. "It always happens like this, and everything will be broken," he said.
The light tube flashed a few more times, and the light was a little darker than before. Yue Dongting looked up and said, "Why is the voltage unstable again?"
Before he finished speaking, the lights went out. Bai Zhi immediately ejected the thunder ball and floated it to the ceiling. The brightness of the purple light is no worse than the previous lamp. Liu Yuenian said with a smile: "There is still a future in developing supernatural powers. Sister, you can sell lights along the street now."
"Why why why!" Xiaoman banged the table, "Why can't I use my powers?"
Liu Yuenian smiled and ran to sit across from Xiao Man, "The power has disappeared? Give me your hand."
Xiao Man extended his hand to him unsuspectingly. Liu Yuenian pressed her hand on the table, paused for a while and then said: "The environment in Shanghai is quite normal. Why is your body's magnetic field so chaotic? Pay attention to rest and avoid going to strong magnetic environments."
"Brother Xueba, does the human body's magnetic field have anything to do with supernatural powers?" Hai Fengqiu was very interested in this topic.
"People with powerful abilities will also have a very strong and stable magnetic field."
The eyes of Hai Fengqiu and Hong Xingluan were as bright as thunderballs above their heads.
"An old thing that has been studied for decades." Liu Yuenian stood up and waved his hands, "In the past, those who said they had superpowers were liars out of ten. Nowadays, the aunts who cook in the canteen all have superpowers. If you don't study this, it is actually a problem. It’s not important anymore.”
The canteen, the cook, the aunt! Xiaoman couldn't bear the blow and lay down on the table again.
Liu Yuenian suddenly said: "Something is wrong. The magnetic field has changed greatly. Everyone, go downstairs and evacuate to an open place. Quick!"
The room seemed to shake slightly, followed by a second shake, and several teacups on the conference table fell over. earthquake!
As they retreated downstairs, sharp alarm whistles sounded one after another. The light balls thrown by the fire and thunder superpowers are everywhere. Several old buildings have collapsed, and the water tower in the canteen next door is crooked.
Members of the new 1st Division gathered towards the large playground opposite the division headquarters. Bai Zhi ran to the back of the division headquarters. Yue Dongting gestured to Haifengqiu and followed. They met Sha Shuang and the others halfway. About thirty girls ran to the playground in two lines. Violent vibrations came one after another, and many girls fell down while running. They silently got up to catch up with the team. Stand quietly in a corner of the playground.
Hai Fengqiu left Liu Yuenian behind and summoned the captains for a meeting, with Yue Dongting attending. Lin Yun came and took away two hundred people to inspect. Zhang Tianzhao accompanied Hong Xingluan and stood in the open area. A fireball more than one meter high above their heads glowed orange. He frowned and looked in the direction of Shanghai. The dull sound of collapsing buildings in the city direction never stopped.
Xiao Man clung to Brother Rong, who hugged her and comforted her softly. Brother Xun looked at the crowd blankly. In the cold night, the fine sweat on his forehead glistened in the firelight. Hong Xinglan put a heavy hand on his shoulder and said, "Calm down."
Brother Xun's smile was uglier than his cry. Zhang Tianzhao gently patted his other shoulder and said, "Ms. Shen didn't just trick you. Be more open-minded."
Brother Xun kept shaking his head, as if he wanted to deny this. But the sadness on his face gave him away.
The captains of each team return to the team to arrange work. Hai Fengqiu strode towards Zhang Tianzhao and said, "It must be the sound of explosives exploding over there in Shanghai City."
"It's just explosives." Zhang Tianzhao said, "It seems like the internal fighting in District 5 has started?"
"Who and whom?" Haifengqiu asked.
"I don't know, it could be anyone." Zhang Tianzhao frowned.
Another violent shock started. Xiaoman couldn't stand firm, and Brother Rong didn't hold her back. After she fell, she got up crying softly.
In the corner where Bai Zhi was, several bright thunderballs rose up, and most of the playground was as bright as day. Many people fell down, and none of the girls stood upright. Bai Zhi got up from the ground and reached out to Sha Shuang. After they stood up, two led four and eight led, and soon the little girls all stood up. Haifengqiu didn't assign any tasks to them, so Bai Zhi led them to stand in that corner. Their quietness and calmness quickly spread to the entire playground. Each team calmed down and left the playground under the leadership of the captain to start rescue work.
A crack appeared in a corner of the playground, and the team leader nearby ordered the team members to disperse. The crack grew bigger and bigger, eventually cutting off half of the playground. The squadron leaders led their respective team members to run in different directions in Area 1. Hai Fengqiu waved in Bai Zhi's direction, gesturing for her to bring the person over.
Bai Zhi ran over and asked the first thing she said: "What can we do."
"Guarantee your own safety and wait for the aftershocks to pass. Bai Zhi follow me." Haifengqiu asked Bai Zhi to enter the tent that had just been set up. The outside was illuminated by thunder and fire light balls, but it was much darker inside. Yue Dongting is sitting at the folding table writing something.
"How many space pockets have you made this time? Four cubic meters." Haifengqiu asked.
"About thirty." Bai Zhi said as she dug out her pocket.
Haifengqiu put the pockets one by one into his backpack, "The three of us will go to the research institute to deliver the pockets. Yue Dongting, I'll leave this place to you."
Yue Dongting nodded and said, "Please pay attention to your safety."
Half of the tunnel leading to the ground from the research institute has collapsed. Glow sticks were hung on the walls of the passage, and the guards remained at their posts. There are glow sticks everywhere in the institute, and Sea Coral is urging researchers to pack important information. Haifengqiu grabbed her and took out the space pocket, "Thirty-two of them are four cubic meters. You can see how they are distributed."
"Thirty-two are not enough!" Haihuo shouted loudly: "The more, the better."
"Take the belt bag that you carry with you. You can take it out first after loading it. Leave the rest to me." Haifengqiu pushed her, "I will install your filing cabinets in one office after another."
"You go to the Institute of Botany first and send sixteen of them over there." Haihuo held a bunch of pocket bags in his arms and shouted: "Department 1, come to Department 6 to get the space bag. Department 7, please bring them." Mark the filing cabinets you leave.”
Haifengqiu took a breath, snatched one back from Haifengqiu, and said, "Let's go!"
The Botanical Research Institute is even messier than the sea coral place. Haifengqiu threw his pocket to the director, who was as bare as his chin and the top of his head, and said: "Four Cubes, you pack sixteen of the most important information."
The director changed from a frown to a wolf-like one, hugging his pocket tightly and not letting go, "Sixteen is too few, give us one for each one!"
"That's all. I gave it to you from Haihuanhual. If you think it's too little, I'll give it back to her." After saying this, Haifengqiu was frightened by the director's resentful eyes. He changed his words and said, "Can you move faster?"
"Where is the seed warehouse?" Zhang Tianzhao asked the key point.
"Gu Tianqing!" the director called to his disciple, "Your brother-in-law is here to rescue the seeds!"
Xiao Qi appeared out of nowhere and shouted: "This way!" Bai Zhi ran towards him. Zhang Tianzhao ran a little faster than Hai Fengqiu.
The seeds of the institute are installed in cabinets and racks. Greatly reduces the workload of packing a backpack. This living Angelica dahurica can be done by one person. Hai Fengqiu and Zhang Tianzhao discussed it and he went back to Haihualu first.
Zhang Tianzhao and Bai Zhi started working together, and after that, not to mention not a single particle was left, not even a single frame was left.
It didn't take Xiaoqi and them half an hour to empty six or seven warehouses. He took the two of them to the greenhouse in a hurry, pointed to the large greenhouse of several thousand square meters and said, "Can these be moved?"
Zhang Tianzhao shook his head.
Bai Zhi walked over and flicked her fingers on the osmanthus tree in a large flower pot. The osmanthus tree disappeared with the pot. "As if I could."
"Where did you put it?" Zhang Tianzhao asked in surprise,
"Space is flat." Bai Zhi said to him, "Do you want to help him?"
"I'm going to find him." Zhang Tianming understood what Bai Zhi meant, turned around and left. He walked into an empty office at the corner, locked the door and teleported into the gang territory.
The large and small flower pots that Bai Zhi collected into the gang's territory were all concentrated in the small square of several hundred square meters in front of the gang lobby. She was not very skilled yet, and sometimes the flower pots would bump into each other. All Zhang Tianzhao had to do was sort out the broken flower pots, pack the plants in the pots with bags and move them aside. Support the plant that was accidentally knocked around. When no new flower pots appeared in the small square, he was already sweating.
Xiao Qi has already gone to find his teacher. Bai Zhi came out of the greenhouse and stood right outside the door. After he opened the door, she handed him a bottle of water with the cap unscrewed.
"Is there more?" Zhang Tianzhao asked breathlessly.
"No, the most important things are all here. Xiaoqi said that sixteen pockets are enough to hold the information they have here." Bai Zhi sighed and said, "I took a look just now and found that plants have some mutations, okay The news is that some of them are mutating for the better. The bad news is that you've learned all your lessons in vain."
"My major is road and bridge design, and my specialty is directional blasting." Zhang Tianzhao smiled, "Tasting Baicao seems to be Xiaoqi's doing."
"Will the underground research institute collapse?" Bai Zhi wiped away a pile of ashes that spilled on her face.
"An earthquake of the same magnitude just now will happen twice more. Let's go." Zhang Tianzhao drank the water in one gulp.
Xiaoqi ran over with a bundle of books on his back. When he saw Zhang Tianzhao coming back, he was stunned for a moment and said, "Fifth sister, let's go quickly. I shouted for the second time to retreat."
They walked through the now deserted hallways and finally exited the institute. A team of guards stationed at the door manually closed the heavy door. The above-ground buildings of the institute have been razed to the ground. There are two temporary tents set up on the rubble, and several injured researchers are resting inside. Sea Coral was calling names one by one, her voice was loud.
Hai Fengqiu stood far away and looked at his sister for a while, then silently turned around and walked towards his friends, back to the new First Division's station.
During the earthquake, many people collapsed and mutated into zombies. The people who were bitten in the chaos mutated quickly. It was unclear how many there were. They were hiding in the ruins and huddled in the corners. There might be one behind the big tree that had been cleared just a few minutes ago. Ordinary officers and soldiers could not guard against it at all, resulting in casualties. Very big.
The family members who were placed in the open area were in a panic. One or more people would turn into zombies if there was an aftershock.
Hong Xingluan and Brother Xun joined the zombie killing team, while Brother Rong stayed with Xiao Man. Yue Dongting arranged for the two of them to be with Sha Shuang and the others. This girl's team is very calm, but not very capable. Sha Shuang was very self-aware and restricted the team members not to leave the tent.
Bai Zhi helped Yue Dongting, and Yue Dongting had a rare tough attitude. He asked Bai Zhi not to leave the office tent.
"Hong Xinglan won't do anything to me!" Bai Zhi tried to convince him.
"Hong Xing took you away indiscriminately. If you coax him, he will definitely come back." Yue Dongting turned his pencil. "What I'm worried about is the unknown danger. Anyone could be Chen Xu. It's better for two people to face future dangers." You are stronger alone.”
The ground became bumpy again. A devastating scream came from outside, the voice was high and thick, and the scream quickly turned into the roar of a zombie. A small team of superpowers ran over, leaving a string of rushing shadows on the tent. Soon the zombie's roar disappeared.
"There are so many mutated people tonight." Bai Zhi sat firmly on the chair and sighed again.
"There will be more people in other districts." Yue Dongting said: "I don't know how many people will be left in Shanghai after dawn."
