I pick up trash at the end of the day

"Yuan, Dr. Yuan, why are you here?"

Nan Fei nervously looked at Yuan Ning who suddenly appeared in front of him. He didn't know if he met him by accident, or if Dr. Yuan had overheard all his previous conversations in the corner.

Nan Fei's heart instantly rose to his throat, his brain was crazily congested, and his flustered heartbeat echoed in his ears.

No way, can't you carry it like this? !

I just said that I was smart and was caught in the next second, so I couldn't be slapped in the face so fast, right? !

"I should be asking you this question, right?"

Yuan Ning stared at the flustered Nan Fei, feeling that he was suspicious, but not to the extent of suspicion.

He once helped himself, and was appointed by the general as the exclusive liaison officer of 1029 in public, which shows that the general has some trust in him.But, where is he going in such a panic?Why is he here alone?

Nan Fei took two deep breaths, he suppressed the panic in his heart, calmly and carefully observed any slight expression on Yuan Ning's face.

Her brows were lightly knit together, her chin was raised slightly, and there was suspicion in her eyes, but there were more doubts and confusion in the doubts.

She didn't know anything, which meant that it was just a coincidence that the two of them collided, and she didn't hear what she said through the communicator just now.

It's okay, it's okay... there's room for turning around.

Nan Fei breathed a sigh of relief instantly, he adjusted his breathing and regained his composure.

Now all he has to do is to take himself out in a legitimate way, and he has to find a reasonable reason that won't be questioned...

"Oh, Dr. Yuan, didn't you tell 1029 to come to me and say that he was looking for a piece of information? I just brought him into the archives room, but the command center suddenly urged me to submit some reports, so I..."

When Nan Fei said this, he deliberately covered his mouth, then changed the subject and hurriedly defended: "Yuan, Dr. Yuan, I didn't mean to leave 1029 alone in the file room."

As he talked, Nan Fei let go of the fear in his heart and made his facial expression more realistic: "I, I know that people without authority can't be left alone in the file room, but, but I still have a job in hand, and 1029 has another job. I said that I must hand over the materials to you within half an hour. I don't want to delay your work, so, that's why I... I'm sorry, Dr. Yuan, I was wrong, you can punish me, but don't drive me away Out of the barracks, I, my family still has an elderly father to take care of, if you drive me out, he and I will starve to death, Dr Yuan, please, I beg you."

Nan Fei's performance is called a true heart, pretending to be true, and he didn't forget to squeeze two tears to deepen the dramatic effect, he almost knelt down and hugged his thigh.

Yuan Ning sighed, she didn't mean to blame Nan Fei.

He was originally just a low-ranking soldier in communications. He looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, and he was promoted to his current position by coincidence. He felt a little panic in his heart, but now that he was caught violating military discipline by himself, he was naturally even more panicked.

Yuan Ning is not hard-hearted, she has already softened her heart after watching Nan Fei burst into tears and snot, and her attention has long been distracted by the sentence 'Didn't you ask 1029 to find me to find a piece of information? ' Fascinated.

The person who asked him to do this is 1029, which means that 1029 has something to hide from himself, and he will do it even if he is charged with conspiracy/rebellion/crime.

Yuan Ning didn't say anything, she put one hand on Nan Fei's shoulder, and said in a gentle tone: "Okay, don't be afraid, I don't mean to blame you, I'm just afraid of your hands Did you come here by yourself because you have a job? Go back and get busy. If you want to say this, it’s my fault. I don’t blame you. Don’t worry, I won’t tell others. "

"Okay, thank you, Dr. Yuan, thank you, I promise I won't make such a mistake again next time."

Nan Fei quickly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, thanked Yuan Ning with tears of gratitude, and then ran away pretending to be in shock.

"I'm sorry, I'm called Mingzhe to protect oneself, and it's none of my business from now on."

Yuan Ning didn't go to the archives room immediately. She went up the elevator in the opposite direction. After returning to the room, she turned on the personal terminal that had been returned, entered the surveillance system of the military camp, called up the monitor at the door of the archives room, and guarded quietly.

Half an hour later, 1029 left the archive room.

Yuan Ning followed the route of 1029. After confirming that he had returned to his room, he hurried to the archives room and found the personal terminal that was still slightly warm.

"The personal holographic terminal is starting, please enter the password."

Yuan Ning looked at the light blue holographic screen that gradually emerged and entered the password neatly, and the mechanical voice sounded again in the file room: "Hello, may I help you?"

"Recall browsing history."

"Okay, please wait..."

The progress bar began to load on the light blue holographic screen, and the loading speed of the progress bar far exceeded Yuan Ning's imagination. After a few seconds, the search ended, and what appeared in front of her was a blank.

"Sorry, no browsing history found yet."

Was the browsing history deleted immediately after the query?

Yuan Ning took a breath, and said to the holographic screen: "Permission override, identity verification, Yuan Ning, search the browsing history again."

"Permission confirmation, re-searching for you, please wait..."

This time, the loading time of the progress bar returned to normal. After 1 minute, the loading of the progress bar was completed, and dense browsing records lingered around Yuan Ning, and the information closest to the time was about the abandoned laboratory.

1029 Why did you secretly investigate this information?

Could it be that there was some deviation in this mission?

Yuan Ning suddenly felt that the problem seemed to be more serious than she had imagined. She hurriedly clicked on the information, and the dense files and audio and video pop-ups replaced other historical records, and an old report caught her attention.

"Here, this is the accident report..."

As night fell, Yu Ge left his residence and came to a deserted white building in a slum.

It used to be a church here, but now it has been deserted and left empty, the colorful rose windows are broken into slag, the statues erected are beyond recognition, half of the surrounding walls collapsed, and the white stones of the ceiling fell to the ground, leaving behind A large hole that does not block the wind or rain, the ground is overgrown with weeds, desolate and dilapidated.

This place is relatively empty, and it is a typical high-risk building. Homeless people dare not approach it, but it is just as Yu Ge wants.

No one else will come here, and it is also convenient for sentinels with sensitive senses to see what is going on around them. It can be said to be an excellent hiding place.

Yu Ge sat on a stone step. He released the colonel to let him inquire briefly, while he patiently waited for 1029 to appear, recalling the information in his father's notebook in his mind.

"In [-], on January [-]rd, today I received an order from the capital fortress to select a site near the laboratory and prepare to build a high-walled fortress. I don't know why the higher-ups suddenly issued such an order. The climate here The environment is not suitable for a large number of people to live in, and there is no trace of human settlement here. The only advantage may be that there is a natural barrier. But is it too childish to build a high-walled fortress based on this alone? Why waste manpower, time and materials resources to do such a thing? Are other high-walled fortresses incapable of accommodating refugees?"

The fortress mentioned in the father's notebook should be the abandoned fortress where the village chief lived, and it was also the place where he lived with his parents in his impression.

Due to the large area of ​​damage and damage, coupled with the passage of nearly 20 years, Yu Ge did not recognize it at all.

Just, what happened back then?Why would a strong fortress with high walls collapse like that?

Let’s say it’s because of the invasion of zombies, but although the vitality of the zombies is tenacious and there are a lot of them, it’s not difficult to destroy the gate of the fortress, but even groups of zombies don’t have the ability to destroy the wall. Collapsed wall.

Well, all of this can only come from human handwriting.

Suddenly, the colonel who got into the weeds raised his pointed head to look around, and then quickly rushed towards an empty corner.

After a while, a figure came out from the corner where the colonel disappeared, and the colonel stayed safely on the shoulder of that figure.

"Come here?"

1029 walked to Yu Ge and sat down, Xiao Hei walked to Yu Ge's side, rubbed him intimately for a while, and then quietly lay beside the two of them.

"How is it? Did you find it?"

"Found it," 1029 said, "that laboratory is directly under the jurisdiction of the Capital Fortress, and the military is responsible for sending sentry guards to protect it, but they are not allowed to interfere with any internal experiments. The person in charge of the laboratory at that time was Yu Nian, who was originally an experimental project manager of the Capital Research Department. The person in charge became the director of the laboratory after he was transferred, and I also found a photo of him taking a group photo in front of the laboratory."

Yu Ge hurriedly showed the photo in his father's notebook to 1029: "Is it this one?"

"Yes," 1029 nodded, "I tried to look up the information of the people on the photo, but many people couldn't check it out, and finally only found two. One is Director Yu, and the other..."

1029 pointed to the figure standing on Yu Nian's left in the photo: "And she, she was the only female sentinel sent there at that time, her name was Morena."

"Morena..."

This, is this the mother's name?

Yu Ge carefully looked at the figure pointed by 1029, he still couldn't see anything clearly, but looking at her, Yu Ge felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy in his heart.

Nostalgic and sad intimacy.

"Then, can you still find out her whereabouts?"

1029 looked at Yu Ge, his eyes darkened, and he spoke weakly, "In [-], there was an accident in the laboratory. At that time, no one survived, including the sentinels stationed there."
