Someone
Just as he was walking out of the port in the alley, He Kui noticed several strange shadows behind him.
He Kui's heart suddenly tightened, and he pretended to be indifferent and showed a shadow of the gun.
Although it is very dark here, the adjusters all have good eyesight, so they should be able to see it.
Sure enough, after He Kui made this move, he clearly felt that the shadows peeping at him from behind were a little less, but there were still one or two people following him.
The gang commits crimes like a pack of wolves. These people are professional robbers and have developed a fixed process. I'm afraid the two people behind him are just confirming whether he is bluffing or not. There are still many fake guns on the market that are indistinguishable from the real ones.
Can't relax.
His hands were positioned so that he could draw his gun at any time. Although his marksmanship was not strong, he had attended military school after all. At least his posture looked professional. He maintained a posture designed to draw his gun at any time and slowly released the safety.
With a click, the figure behind him gradually left.
He Kui finally arrived at the station, and the most dangerous journey came to an end. Although police force was extremely scarce, at least there were one or two policemen deployed in such an important place as the station.
After signaling to the two men in tight blue uniforms, He Kui got on the magnetic levitation automatic car and returned safely to the campus of the Heilan Design Bureau.
Day two.
With Su Lei's prior instructions, He Kui successfully returned the gun to Su Lei by passing through the layers of security outside.
"I think I ran into those robbers yesterday."
"Did you really encounter one?"
Su Lei opened her eyes wide in surprise and glanced at He Kui.
"Are you okay?"
"No, thanks to the gun."
Obviously, if he hadn't pulled the trigger yesterday, those guys might have really rushed over.
"It's a mess outside right now, so be careful and don't go out unless necessary."
The lack of police force, the rising unemployment rate, the sudden emergence of various war taxes and the sluggish market have made it seem that things are calm inside the five major design bureaus, but it is not the case outside. When a person is in a desperate situation and cannot afford the rent or synthetic meat, he will naturally take risks.
"About that, I actually want to rent a house in the plant area outside."
"The house in the plant area. You're really afraid of death."
“It’s about being prepared.”
"Okay, but I won't pay for you. I don't have much money." "I don't want Director Su to pay for me. I just want to ask if there is anyone Director Su trusts who can share the rent with me."
He Kui didn't dare to ask Su Lei to pay for her, but Su Lei was the director after all, and her connections were definitely better than his.
"Sharing a house is also an option. Okay, I'll help you see, but don't hold out too much hope. Most people are having a hard time right now, so they probably don't have the spare money."
Su Lei sighed. She knew many people who had ended up in debt due to failed investments.
"That's enough, thank you."
He Kui probably guessed that Su Lei would say this, and he was not too disappointed. Just a few days after saying goodbye to Su Lei, his extremely fulfilling life continued.
Late at night, in his room, Haro in front of He Kui slowly floated up without using his legs. According to the program settings, the lights in his eyes flickered, like a person blinking.
"Hello?"
"Do you understand?"
"Hello."
"Move this thing to the living room."
"Hello~"
The pink Haro, as big as a football, stretched out its arms from both sides of its body and lifted up the materials in front of it. However, when it floated to the door, the magnetic levitation device lost its function due to the change in the center of gravity. Seeing that Haro was about to fall, He Kui caught Haro quickly, but the materials in Haro's hands fell to the ground with a clang.
failed again
The movement logic of objects in the magnetic levitation state will also change. After all, Hello cannot just move straight forward like a car, but needs to change the center of gravity of the sphere at any time according to the weight of the object. This leads to a surge in Hello's calculation amount, and the program needs to be further streamlined.
"Did it fall again?"
Shihe, who came out of her room, happened to see He Kui standing at the door thinking, and the mess on the ground.
"Sorry to bother you?"
"Not really. Go take a shower first. I'll help you clean up. You have to go to work tomorrow."
Shihe put down the report in her hand and gently stroked Haro who was held in He Kui's arms.
"Hello~?"
"So good~"
