Neverland

It never occurred to Xu Muzhou that the first person to face Qin Wei alone was not Yan Cen, but himself.

The research team leader put a document on Xu Muzhou's desk. Xu Muzhou raised his head from behind the computer and looked at her blankly, as if he didn't realize what the other party was just saying.

The leader of Xu Muzhou's research team is a woman in her 40s. She is capable and has a good temper. Seeing Xu Muzhou's dazed expression, she became motherly, rolled up the duty sheet in her hand and tapped Xu Mu gently. continent's head.

"Stupid to be happy?" she said.

"...team leader." Xu Muzhou said, "You just said that the major general asked me to do a work report?"

"That's right." The other party nodded: "Originally this kind of face-to-face reporting work should be done by 1 group, but 1 group is in the experimental period and can't leave. It just so happens that B-2 is the main research content of your 3 groups, so you just go. One time... don't be too happy, be more prudent when reporting work."

Xu Muzhou twitched the corners of his mouth, the "happiness" on his face was extremely perfunctory, almost a wry smile.

Qin Wei's special scientific research team consists of 1 people, divided into three groups, the first group is responsible for the main research module, and the remaining two groups work for the first group to do sub-item research.Neverland put Xu Muzhou in the relatively marginal 1 groups. Although he was given the title of "doctor", but because the B-3 experiment is coming to an end, Xu Muzhou has had a fair two days easy.

Xu Muzhou wasn't worried that Qin Wei would discover his abnormal identity. After these few missions, he had probably figured out Neverland's ability to handle affairs.In the previous missions, when Neverland set his identity out of thin air, he also appropriately tampered with other people's cognition, so that his identity was logical and could quietly blend into the crowd.

Although Xu Muzhou still doesn't know how Neverland did it, he still gives him blind trust in Neverland.

But Neverland can help him optimize his cognition - but he can't help him make a report!

The smile on Xu Muzhou's face was extremely stiff, he hesitantly reached out to pick up the documents on the table, and quickly thought about the feasibility of on-site sick leave in his mind.

However, Researcher Xu did not dare in the end.

It takes about ten minutes to walk from the research office area of ​​Group 3 to Qin Wei's office. Xu Muzhou is holding the documents and standing at the intersection outside the scientific research area like a thief, walking forward step by step while staring wildly at the wall. The emergency exit plan above.

Group 3 was at the outermost side of the central scientific research group. Xu Muzhou secretly wrote down the route before taking a deep breath and preparing to bite the bullet.

He just hid in the toilet and looked at the report report in his hand. This kind of periodic report is concise and concise, and it seems to be much faster than the basic document, but it involves a lot of professional terms, and Xu Muzhou's foundation is not good. , It is a bit difficult to see.

I don't know if it was because of Yan Cen's "protagonist and supporting role theory" that caused his psychological troubles, Xu Muzhou always felt that this was like a grand banquet.

Xu Muzhou exited the door of the special scientific research team. He had to pass through a long corridor. The surveillance camera hanging from the ceiling flashed a red light, following his figure and slowly moving the angle.

There are cold metal walls on the left and right sides, Xu Muzhou's hand holding the document tightly, feeling a kind of pressure for no reason.

He felt that this part of the road looked familiar.

【Warning——】

It wasn't until Xu Muzhou was blocked by a metal gate that he suddenly realized that he had indeed walked this way before.

—in the video material of Neverland.

[Advanced area ahead, please verify your identity information card. 】

The mechanical chime was clearer than the distorted audio in the video, and the text flashed on the display next to the door.

He raised his head, facing the black muzzle of the machine gun in the upper right corner.

Xu Muzhou collected himself, took out his ID card from his pocket, and swiped it on the verification machine.

[Identity information confirmed——]

[Welcome to visit, Doctor. 】

All of this is exactly the same as in the video-that is, the previous guide took the same path as him.

Xu Muzhou thought of the video where the signal was suddenly cut off, and his heart sank.

At this moment, Xu Muzhou was suddenly in a daze.For a moment, he couldn't tell whether he had unknowingly walked on the same path as the guide he had never met, or whether that video was simply his future.

Qin Wei is undoubtedly more special than all the tasks he faced before, and Xu Muzhou began to faintly feel the difference between the "protagonist" and "supporting role" in Yan Cen's mouth.

—A world of difference.

A piece of the ceiling in the upper right corner folded away, and the machine gun disappeared behind the metal wall panels, like a dangerous beast lurking in the shadows.The metal door in front of Xu Muzhou slid open, revealing the security room behind.

Stretching his head and retracting his head was also a stab, Xu Muzhou frowned slightly, and walked into the security check area.

The red light from the security detector flashed past him, and the second metal door opened, revealing a peaceful corridor in front of him.

Xu Muzhou walked out of the security check area, the sensor door closed behind him, and the office door carved with icons on the opposite side of the corridor was very close to him.After thinking about it, he still sent a message to Yan Cen.

Before he could finish typing a line, the hydrangea pendant hidden under his cuff suddenly felt hot.Xu Muzhou was already quite familiar with this change, he was stunned for a moment, never expecting that the progress would advance by itself at this time.

Fortunately, he hadn't moved forward yet, and the monitoring angle in front of Qin Wei's office couldn't see him. Xu Muzhou took a half step back, and pulled out the hydrangea from his cuff sideways.

Unexpectedly, a small part of the black marks on it faded away by itself.Xu Muzhou hasn't seen Qin Wei yet, and Yan Cen is still on vacation in the dormitory area doing nothing, so what's the matter if this obsession drops by itself for no reason.

Could it be that Qin Wei still has nothing to do to appease her emotions?Xu Muzhou murmured in his heart, that was really reassuring.

Of course Xu Muzhou wasn't so naive as to think that Qin Wei was thinking about it, he tucked the pendant back into his sleeve and sent the edited newsletter to Yan Cen.

Yan Cen didn't reply right away, wondering if it was because he was busy with something else.

The visiting time for the report was limited, Xu Muzhou didn't think about it any more, he hurriedly took care of himself, checked himself for any omissions, and then stepped forward and rang the visitor bell.

Qin Wei probably knew that he was coming, the information screen at the door picked out a line of [identity confirmation], and the office door opened automatically.

Xu Muzhou raised his head. Qin Wei's office was neatly tidied up. Except for a few pots of green plants, the overall atmosphere was filled with the word "rigorous".

Her desk was facing the door, and when she heard Xu Muzhou come in, she naturally raised her head.

Very young - this is Xu Muzhou's first impression of Qin Wei.

Probably because of his preconceived idea that this is Song Yan's sweetheart, Xu Muzhou has a deeper sense of reality for this task object.

Before that, except for the blurry silhouette, Neverland did not leave any video materials related to Qin Wei himself. This was the first time that Xu Muzhou met Qin Wei in a real sense.

It's also...difficult.

Human beings are inherently risk-averse, and animals will succumb to the strong in exchange for a place in existence—humans are no exception.Xu Muzhou instinctively sensed the difference between Qin Wei and Robert, and roughly understood why Yan Cen, who has always had a tricky eye, gave Qin Wei a similar praise without hesitation.

Qin Wei didn't look fierce, nor did she match the word cruelty, but Xu Muzhou still felt a faint sense of oppression from the other party.

The last time Xu Muzhou felt this way was from Yan Cen who he met for the first time when he was arrested by Neverland to take the exam.

The little radar in Xu Muzhou's heart had already dinged, his eyes were fixed on one point, and he almost had to mobilize all his cautious nerves to deal with this meeting.

Qin Wei sized up Xu Muzhou for a moment, then looked away naturally, and put the stylus in her hand back on the pen holder under the display.

"Dr. Xu, right." Qin Wei said, "You have 10 minutes to report."

Qin Wei's attitude and tone were very normal, Xu Muzhou took a step forward and handed her the document with both hands.

"This is the report document for this time." Xu Muzhou said, "Please read it."

Qin Wei reached out to take the folder. When she raised her hand, the cuff of her left hand was driven to slide down a little bit, revealing a small white wrist.

Like most people, Qin Wei is also used to wearing the communicator on her left wrist. When Xu Muzhou handed her something, he habitually glanced at her hand, only to find that it was under the black communicator bracelet. , Qin Wei also wore a humble bracelet.

The red string was loomingly hidden in the cuffs, Xu Muzhou had sharp eyes, and found that there were some beads made of unknown materials on the red string, which were small and inconspicuous.

Xu Muzhou was startled.

He also saw one of this thing in Song Yan's hand. Song Yan didn't have it when she was recalled from Neverland. She only applied for it when she finished the cleaning task last time.

Xu Muzhou wondered why Song Yan applied for such a thing at the time, but now he understands.

——I'm afraid that was originally Song Yan's thing in this world.

Xu Muzhou's gaze didn't stay on Qin Wei's wrist for long, he lowered his eyes, waiting for Qin Wei to flip through the documents.

"The experimental technology of B-2 tends to be perfected. We have finished the initial experiment. The experimental results are in line with the expected situation, and we can enter the next experimental stage." Xu Muzhou said: "We still start with small mice, and we will arrange Short, medium, and long-term categories of experiments."

The idea of ​​preserving human vital signs by cryogenic freezing is not new. When Xu Muzhou lived, some people were already working on this technology.But Qin Wei wanted more. She not only hoped to preserve her vital signs as much as possible, but also demanded that the technology be stopped at any time.

"I see." Qin Wei closed the document and asked, "Dr. Xu, what stage has the research on the linkage between B-2 technology and A-1 technology reached?"

Xu Muzhou's heart tightened.

——This question is not included in the report.
