32 days

"Then why are you so nice to me?"

"Because you are kind and brave, you deserve to be treated well by others."

The subject of Zhou Yan'an's answer was Yi Alan, not himself.This made Yi Alan feel that those words were just a consolation in his depressed state.

Life always gets back on track.

Yue Ximing declined the vacation and continued to work.Yi Alan temporarily forgot about the things that put him in a dilemma, and took one step at a time like his past life.

However, Luo Caiyun and the others still took extra care of Yi Alan, and did not assign him too many tasks this month.After Ye Zhou was killed, Yi Alan's safety was more important, and he was not sent out, and he was well protected in the impregnable affairs team.On the 32nd last time, there was originally a two-day mission, but it was delayed by one day due to the missile incident, and the mission for that day was moved to the next 32nd.

During this period of time, Yi Alan became very leisurely.Zhou Yan'an was fine when he was there, and he still had someone to talk to, but most of the time Zhou Yan'an was running around outside.After all, Zhou Yan'an is not like him, Zhou Yan'an always has so much to learn.

Yi Alan can only watch movies, read books, and play programming mining games, but even if he gets a holiday card, Chen Ruming dare not cash it out for him now.

This year's winter came fast and fiercely, and the first snow fell in late December.The snow fell quite thickly, although it was not enough to drown the ankles, but it also gave a uniform color to the decoration of Beishan City overnight.

On the 32nd, the emergency team was about one kilometer away from the nearest residential area, and they were usually independent of each other.

But on this day, the Saturday of the rest day, things changed a bit. The rumors that had been quietly circulating in the mouths of a small number of residents suddenly became intense.

The nearby residents all know that there is an extra building around them, and they feel sorry that it is not a shopping mall, a school or other facilities that benefit them, and they are also grateful that it is not a landfill. They all know that it is just a not bad building. Institute of Physics - This was originally the purpose of development and construction at the beginning, but it was used for other purposes because it appeared on the 32nd.Residents commute to get off work and go out to play in the opposite direction to the office, and rarely pass the gate of the office, so no one cares about the buildings there for a while.

But for a very small number of people, they are particularly concerned about the building one kilometer away from them.At the beginning, some people suspected that the research of the Institute of Physics or the machines used for the research would produce radiation, which would affect their health.The enduring conspiracy theory quickly found a small following.Sometimes they would deliberately pass by the affairs team, and found that the security there was particularly strict, and the guards at the sentry boxes at the entrance were all armed with live ammunition.Sometimes I would spy with a telescope and see a lot of weird signal transmitters similar to antennas.All this made them feel uneasy.

On the morning after the snow fell, someone swore that he found that the snow on the roof of the building melted very quickly. He explained it this way: This means that the heat there is very high. Although high heat does not necessarily mean that it will be harmful, but Certainly more suspect than low in calories.Either the big machines are running all the time to cool off, or some kind of radiation is making the snow melt faster than elsewhere.

Then someone said that he felt that the leaves of the trees in that building were withering more than the trees in their community. Even the evergreen pines and cypresses had a lot of yellow branches and leaves, and even a few trees died.All of a sudden, everyone decided that the radiation had affected the growth of the trees.No one seemed to have thought that the building was built in the past six months, and the greenery was transplanted in the past six months, and it was a relatively cold early winter. It is normal for plants that are not acclimatized to the water and soil to survive.

A group of people became impulsive like an avalanche, and it was difficult to stop them from coming back. After a few words, they decided to go to the gate of the "Institute of Physics" to demonstrate and ask for an explanation.

About 20 people responded, put on padded jackets and down jackets, squeezed into a car if they had a car, and immediately headed for the affairs team.To say that everyone here really thinks that there is radiation and that radiation can harm themselves 1000 meters away is not necessarily the case. There are many snobs who fish in troubled waters, feel that the law does not blame the public, and can get some compensation for making a fuss.

Six or seven cars suddenly stopped at the gate of the affairs team, and there were nearly [-] people coming down. The guards at the guard box immediately reported to the security team through the walkie-talkie, and then vigilantly asked the person walking in front about their purpose.

It was a healthy old man in his 70s - he was urged to go ahead by the young people in the car, saying that others dared not do anything to the old man, the old man said in a deep voice: "We are residents living nearby, and we want to talk to you Talk to your leaders."

The guard said: "Can you explain your specific identity and purpose of coming? I can report to the leader."

I don't know if the attitude of the guards is too approachable, these people are a little presumptuous, and said in an unpleasant tone: "Call your leader out, it's not the emperor, can't we meet?"

The security team leader came quickly, and the old man asked, "Are you the biggest leader here?"

The group leader played Tai Chi: "If you have anything to do, just tell me, we will help if we can."

"We want to talk to your leader!" The man snorted dissatisfiedly, and the group of people behind him also clamored to be able to talk, not security.

However, amidst the chaotic voices, the team leader finally managed to distinguish the effective information, and suddenly felt helpless, thinking that he had also encountered this kind of thing.He had no choice but to raise his hands and signaled everyone to be quiet: "Everyone listen to me, don't worry, all the research in our institute has undergone a safety assessment and will never leak any harmful radiation! If you are still worried, you can go to If the relevant departments report through formal channels, someone will naturally send experts to supervise and inspect our institute."

"You're going around and around, just tell me if there is any radiation!" The man also held up the phone with the recording turned on, which means that if you dare to lie, he has evidence.

The team leader had no choice but to say: "There are many kinds of radiation. For so many years, everyone knows that computer radiation and mobile phone radiation have little harm to the body. In fact, there is a steady stream of radiation reaching the earth in the universe, and even a piece of granite will release it. radiation, but the effective dose of these radiations is extremely low and will not cause harm to the human body."

"So there's radiation?" the crowd yelled.

The team leader complained endlessly: "There is radiation, but it is within the normal range. I am in the camp, eating, drinking, and messing around. If it really affects me, wouldn't I be the first to run away?"

These words dispelled the concerns of those who were genuinely afraid of radiation, but those who wanted to take advantage of it were a bit foolish: "Who knows if you have any way to not be affected, just let ordinary people like us suffer?"

"Why is it so noisy outside today?" Luo Caiyun stood at the window of the meeting room and looked towards the door.

At this moment, the security team leader felt that the movement here might attract the attention of the inside, but because he had to keep explaining to the gathered people, he couldn't get away, so he gestured to the deputy behind him.The deputy nodded, exited the noisy crowd, and reported the latest situation to Luo Caiyun by phone.

"Nearby residents are worried that we have radiation leakage here." Luo Caiyun told several other deputy team leaders.

Lu Liangjun has long been familiar with such things. In his many years of experience in dealing with abnormal events, the only enlightenment he has received is that no matter how advanced the basic education is, there will always be fish that slip through the net.

Yan Fei also walked by the window, looked at it for a while, frowned and said: "It's a bit too coincidental for them to choose this time to make trouble."

After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Just in case, I'll go to Yi Alan's place to have a look. You'd better ask Zheng Duo to arrange a few more people to guard it."

"Okay." Luo Caiyun said, "Yi Alan's safety is something you should pay special attention to."

Because of the Joker incident, Yi Alan became the spying target of some countries.The responsibility of protecting Yi Alan naturally falls to Yan Fei, who is used to dealing with spies from various countries. He not only has the latest foreign intelligence and can respond in advance, but also has many spy subordinates with sharp ears and eyes and outstanding skills who can respond accordingly.

"Since you said that the radiation has no effect, then you let us go in and take a look?"

"The research in the Institute involves confidential projects and is not open to the public. However, you can still make reasonable appeals to the relevant departments. After due process of discussion and planning, they will select representatives of the masses from among you if feasible. Experts accompanied me to visit."

"Aren't you ready for another day?"

"Yeah! Yeh!" the crowd yelled, in high spirits.

The confrontation outside the gate has reached a stalemate, which makes the security team leader instinctively uneasy.He felt that sometimes when the communication progressed to normal steps, unreasonable people would always come out to disrupt the rhythm, making it impossible for the two parties to talk peacefully.With one hand behind his back, the team leader made an internal gesture to the colleagues behind him, asking them to enter the third-level alert state.

Suddenly, the sound of sudden braking attracted the attention of everyone at the door.

I saw an out-of-control oil tanker driving to the side of the road and collided with a car of a nearby resident.Immediately, a terrified driver jumped out of the cockpit and ran towards the crowd: "Run! The oil tanker is damaged, oil has leaked out, and it is about to explode!"

There were indeed a few long trails of black liquid trailing behind the tank body.

The crowd suddenly panicked, shouting and running around like headless chickens, pushing each other.

"Help the masses evacuate!" The security team leader shouted hastily.

Four guards rushed to the guard room and took out explosion-proof shields and foam fire extinguishers, and then rushed to the front of the crowd, with the explosion-proof shields facing forward, lined up to cover everyone from retreating.

The black liquid leaked from the oil tanker should be crude oil, with many impurities and macromolecules, and a low ignition point. It is less harmful than refined gasoline and diesel, but there is still a risk of explosion, and the security team leader dare not neglect.

"Hide in, hide in!" Someone shouted.The frightened crowd subconsciously followed the voice like a bright light, and ran towards the interior of the office building while screaming and screaming.

The head of the security team thought badly, but in this case, he couldn't prevent so many people from going in for refuge, so he had to radio the security team inside: "Attention everyone! Level [-] security! Level [-] security! All Let the people take action and guide the insiders and outsiders to hide in the underground air-raid shelter!"

Suddenly there was a gunshot.

The frightened crowd was even more panicked, screaming heart-piercingly, and running away separately.

The security team leader jumped nervously and shouted: "What's going on? Whose gun went off?"

There was no answer on the intercom headset.

The security team leader shouted again: "The team leaders understand the situation in the team, and then report to me."

"The 001 team is here, with 5 members, and no one escaped."

"The 002 team is here, with 5 members, and no one escaped."

……

"The 010 team is here, with 5 members, and no one escaped."

The security team leader naturally knew that his people were well-trained, and he would not let his gun go off at such a time, let alone choose to hide it if it went off.It wasn't their own people who shot.

When Yan Fei heard the gunshots, he just walked to the door of the dormitory building, his face changed drastically, and he hurriedly notified the special agents who were arranged to protect Yi Alan everywhere in the dormitory building: "You pay attention to mopping up!"

Without time to wait for the elevator, Yan Fei ran upstairs quickly and bumped into Yi Alan who opened the door.

"What happened outside?" Yi Alan asked ignorantly.

Yan Fei dragged Yi Alan into the room and closed the door: "It's too late to explain to you, in fact, I don't know much. In any case, I want to ensure your safety first, let's leave through the safe passage first." .”

Yan Fei took Yi Alan straight to the entrance of the safe passage in the wardrobe of the bedroom, below which was an anti-gravity well.Zhou Yan'an introduced this anti-gravity well to him when he moved in on the first day, but Yi Alan didn't expect it to come in handy today, because he didn't know exactly what happened, and he was even a little curious about it .

Yan Fei hugged Yi Alan's arm, and they jumped down together.

The falling process was very light and slow, like falling on the moon with only one-sixth of the gravity of the earth, and the height of 20 meters did not hurt them.They landed firmly on the solid ground, and Yi Alan only felt a little numbness in her calf.At this time, the passage extended forward, parallel to the ground, and the dim emergency lights were faintly on.

Not far from them, there is a small and cute transportation tool that looks a bit like a go-kart.Yan Fei pressed his fingerprint on the door of the car, and the door opened automatically.

"Sit in." Yan Fei shouted to Yi Alan, "Your fingerprint has also been entered into the system, and you can open it by yourself, but if other people who have not registered their fingerprints want to start the maglev self-driving car, an alarm will be triggered system."

Yi Alan stepped into the car and asked curiously: "What if someone hijacks me?"

Yan Fei said: "That's okay, there are people on standby 24 hours a day in the passage."

After both of them sat down and put on their seat belts, the door of the car closed automatically, and it slid forward along the track quickly. The emergency lights on both sides of the passage turned into a silky light strip and stretched backward.

"In just one minute, we will have run 1 meters away." Yi Alan looked ahead through the windshield, and he always had the feeling of sliding into an unknown world.

"Of course, the cost is expensive." Yan Fei knew that he was far away from danger—no matter what the danger was, he relaxed, "I have been waiting for this opportunity for a long time."

Yi Alan smiled: "Do you take a small car? It seems to be no different from ordinary maglev trains except for the closed environment."

"No." Yan Fei's face was moody and angry under the strange light, "What I'm waiting for is to be alone with you without any chance of surveillance."
