mini people

"You really are..." He Minghao looked at him helplessly, and stopped talking.

Shen Jiyun: "What is it really?"

He Minghao shook his head and said, "Nothing."

He wanted to say, you are really cold and unfeeling to yourself, your younger brother is gone, and your own perception function has been cut off abruptly.

He wanted to persuade Shen Jiyun to relax a bit and give himself room to breathe, but after thinking about it, he had never experienced the feeling of losing his parents and his only younger brother, so he was not qualified to point fingers, so he gave up.

Shen Jiyun asked: "What department do you go to?"

He Minghao smiled and said: "It's not decided yet, I'm not like you, special admission... I still have to go to the application interview."

Shen Jiyun was a little surprised, he thought He Minghao's uncle would arrange everything for him.

He Minghao: "But with my professional background, the only departments I can go to are the Human Rehabilitation Center. The application has already been submitted. Let's see which department responds to me first. If there is no accident, it will be the same as you."

Sure enough, due to the recent plague in country C and the urgent need for manpower, the upper management of the center learned that He Minghao and Shen Jiyun had done research in the same group, so they naturally sent him an interview letter.

He Minghao successfully passed the interview and was assigned to another expert's laboratory.

Even so, the two can still meet and communicate at any time, and He Minghao is quite satisfied with this.

However, in the past few months, the organization's research on vaccines has made no progress.

This morning, Expert Chen was summoned by the upper echelons to hold a meeting, and when he came back, he summoned everyone to the large conference room inside the center with a very unsightly expression.

Everyone whispered to each other, feeling uneasy, not knowing what happened.

Expert Chen told them that another city in country C had a large area of ​​plague infection—the city of God, which is the closest to Daping City. If the epidemic situation continues to worsen, this city will also face the fate of being blocked by the whole city.

Everyone's face changed drastically when they heard the words. Originally, the complete blockade of Daping City was the worst outcome they could have imagined, but now there is another... If this continues, can the secret of MWCC be kept?

At present, while putting pressure on MWCC, the governments of various countries are already considering the introduction of relevant policies to temporarily close the trade and personnel flow with country C.

Expert Chen said solemnly: "Everyone already understands the situation. The pressure from above is our pressure. In the days to come, everyone will not be easy."

After the meeting, everyone returned to their respective laboratories in a state of panic. On the way, several colleagues began to complain about the big basket made by the research department of country C, and were resentful about it.

He Minghao asked Shen Jiyun in a low voice: "What do you think?"

Shen Jiyun said in a low voice: "Eat what you eat."

He Minghao: "..."

Shen Jiyun is right. Although the current disaster is happening in country C, if MWCC hadn't acquiesced in allowing scientists to treat uninitiated mini-humans as experimental subjects, if scientists hadn't modified their breeding genes, if they hadn't been greedy to study more The genetic modification agent, why this?

It is all interlocking that lead to today's situation.

The "not easy" that expert Chen said at the meeting was quickly implemented in the work of each of them.

At the request of the organization, both Shen Jiyun and He Minghao temporarily suspended their courses at the National University and started full-time research.

Shen Jiyun is not optimistic about the development of the situation in country C, and his focus is not on this. Rather than helping MWCC clean up the mess in country C, he wants to know about the special case that was covered up by country B, and The whereabouts of the younger brother who may be associated with it.

But now that he is in the middle of the game, he has to take care of the authorities first.

As the New Year approaches, the busy research center also begins to be filled with happiness.

In order to relieve the pressure, the researchers whispered about the activities that MWCC might hold this year while doing experiments.

"I still remember the shock that the light show last year brought to the minifigures..."

"Yeah, every time I think of that scene, I feel that my work has meaning."

"I hope the troubles in country C can be resolved as soon as possible, so that we can regain our peaceful days..."

……

Shen Jiyun could not help but ask Tao Lixue next to him, "What activity?"

Tao Lixue explained to him excitedly: "MWCC holds a blessing event every year, usually on the last weekend of the year, you will know when you see it."

The date Tao Lixue said was three days later, and Shen Jiyun found that the atmosphere was very different as soon as he arrived at the company.

On that day, the entire MWCC was hung with bright red ribbons, and holographic screens were turned on in the rooms and corridors inside and outside the building, playing various videos.

On the video, people come and go, some are talking, some are chasing and fighting, and they seem to be full of life.

Shen Jiyun stared at it for a while, and found that the environment in the video looked very different from the real world, because the buildings inside were layered on top of each other and connected together, like a solid body, towering plants enveloped the building, which looked tall Unattainable, he has never seen such a city.

Looking at it, Shen Jiyun suddenly realized - this is the mini world base under the MWCC building, and these people are all miniature people living in the base!

"How is it? Isn't it shocking?" Xu Hong's voice suddenly sounded beside her. She came here at some point and looked at the screen with a sense of novelty and satisfaction on her face.

Shen Jiyun sounded mechanically: "How was this filmed? Are there cameras installed in the base?"

Xu Hong: "No, the administrator personally brought the camera in to take the real shots. You see, the angle of view of the screen is not fixed, and everything is moving."

Shen Jiyun: "...Administrator?"

Xu Hong nodded: "The administrator is the only person who can travel back and forth between the mini world and the normal world. They all have their own mini-human connection body. When performing tasks, the consciousness transmission between the main body and the connection body will not be interrupted. In this way, the two The body can share consciousness and memory."

Shen Jiyun was astonished and said, "Can it still be like this?"

Xu Hong didn't say much, just said: "In principle, in order to ensure the privacy of the mini world, MWCC cannot disclose the life of villains on the base, even us researchers, this is the condition when human rights organizations agreed to the establishment of MWCC .”

Shen Jiyun can fully understand, looking at these images, thinking about the world created by them, it is really possible for people to lose themselves completely, imagining themselves as the god who dominates everything.

"So, we only have this one day every year to witness the life of the little people in the mini world base, enjoy it, there will be more exciting things later." Xu Hong smiled at him, and walked away first.

After Xu Hong left, He Minghao and Tao Lixue came one after the other.

On this special day, everyone stopped their work and wandered in the public hall to enjoy the scene of the mini world.

He Minghao clicked his tongue and exclaimed: "This is probably the best promotional video of MWCC. Watching it for a day will give you blood for a year..."

Shen Jiyun was indifferent, but Tao Lixue beside him was amused by his words: "MWCC will also regularly send electronic newsletters to internal employees, and will also report some of the latest status of the mini world."

He Minghao: "Really?"

Tao Lixue: "Yeah, I remember that there was an issue of DigiTimes that wrote a tribal analysis of the mini world, saying that base No. [-] is now ruled by five internal mini-human forces, and the land is divided equally. Interesting."

He Minghao: "Fucking, this is fucking..."

He swears a few times, and seems to be unable to think of any exclamation words, and stands there with a blushing face and extremely tangled up.

Shen Jiyun took the opportunity to ask Tao Lixue: "Do you know the administrator?"

"Ah, I know a little bit," Tao Lixue explained a few words, similar to what Xu Hong said, and she said again, "The administrator department is a special department of MWCC."

Shen Jiyun was silent, no wonder he didn't find the information of the administrator department on the intranet.

Shen Jiyun asked again: "Then do you know how to become an administrator?"

Tao Lixue wondered: "I'm not too sure about this, I only heard that the selection of candidates in this department is very strict, after all, it has a lot of power, and it is difficult for ordinary people to even get the qualifications for application, they seem to only send out to the people they fancy. Invitation card."

At this moment, a countdown timer appeared on the screen, and Tao Lixue exclaimed: "Here we come!"

He Minghao: "What's coming?"

Tao Lixue excitedly said: "Blessing activity!"

Many people ran to the window to look out, Shen Jiyun and He Minghao followed, and saw several big lights lit up outside the building, shining directly on the base below, a helicopter flew directly from the top of the MWCC building to In the sky above the mini world base, something is being sprinkled down.

Everyone turned to look at the big screen again, and after a while, the objects thrown down appeared on the screen...

It was a pile of colorful petals, wrapped in exquisitely packaged mini candies, falling from the sky.

I saw the little people in the mini world looking up at the sky one after another, from being dazed and surprised at first, to chasing the petals and candies falling from the sky in ecstasy...the whole world was jubilant.

There were also many people who were excited and lay down on the ground and began to worship, taking this man-made "blessing activity" as a manifestation of a god.

"Can't they see the helicopter?" He Minghao asked in surprise.

"Backlight." Shen Jiyun reminded.

Yes, because several headlights were directly shining on the base, and the helicopter was flying over the light source. When the little people looked up, they could only see a vast expanse of whiteness, just like looking at the sun, without knowing what was behind the sun.

The researchers in the MWCC building looked at the scene on the screen and were moved by the joyous atmosphere, some even had tears in their eyes and wept with joy.

After the blessing event, everyone gathered together to discuss with unfinished business.

Only Shen Jiyun returned to the laboratory expressionlessly and continued with the work in hand.

Tao Lixue saw her, followed quietly, and asked curiously, "Don't you feel anything about this event?"

Shen Jiyun said in a muffled voice, "It's okay."

Tao Lixue put on a mask and rubber gloves, and said in a low voice, "I've never seen anyone who is...cooler than you."

Shen Jiyun paused, thinking, she probably meant to say "ruthless".

Tao Lixue glanced at him, then asked, "Do you really dislike this place?"

"No," Shen Jiyun said to her, "Please send me a DEX087 reagent."

Tao Lixue naturally started to attack him. Although she entered the research center earlier than Shen Jiyun, she found that the other party adapted very quickly. In just a few months, she was already able to lead many experiments.

"But I always feel that you are unhappy." Tao Lixue handed him the reagent, and said, "I've never seen you smile."

Shen Jiyun asked instinctively: "Have any of your relatives been turned into miniature people?"

Tao Lixue was stunned for a moment, her eyes suddenly dimmed.

Only then did Shen Jiyun remember that this girl had told him that she was an orphan, "I'm sorry." Shen Jiyun said immediately.

"No need," Tao Lixue quickly recovered, smiled at him, and said, "To be honest, I would rather they become miniatures, at least in this way, I can intuitively feel that they are still alive, and I will work harder work because I know that everything I do will make them happier."

Shen Jiyun was stunned for a moment, speechless.

Tao Lixue looked into his eyes and asked again: "What about you? Have any of your relatives been turned into miniatures?"
