Tomorrow's Ark is too real

Chapter 93 Feather
3 hours later.

Sitting on a bench in the lobby on the first floor of Experimental Base No. 4, Xia Feng sighed sincerely.

Big, big, too big.

Within 3 hours, Xia Feng walked around the entire No. [-] base of Rhine Life, from the first floor to the fourth floor, he visited all the places he could enter.

Apparently, his movements were not restricted, and the occasional passing staff just glanced at his badge and ignored him.

This base covers a very large area. Xia Feng estimates that it is at least tens of thousands of square meters. There are many rooms on each floor, but most of them cannot be entered.

There is a fingerprint reader in front of the door of each room. Except for his private room on the fourth floor, Xia Feng can only enter some public areas, such as toilets, smoking rooms, restaurants, entertainment rooms and so on.

Moreover, he also discovered a strange phenomenon.

There are very few staff members in the entire No. 3 base. Within 30 hours, he never saw more than [-] living people, and most of them appeared on the first and second floors. There were very few people on the third floor, and on the fourth floor, except Apart from Aina, he never saw anyone else come up.

Guigui trotted all the way to Xia Feng with two glasses of juice.

"Big windmill, here."

Xia Feng took a cup, and suddenly remembered that Aina said before that he could only eat normal food from tomorrow.

Hey, who cares, he shouldn't die.

Xia Feng took a few sips into the straw, it tasted like apples.

"Tuigui, where did you get the juice?"

Turtle pointed to a room at the end.

"It's right there. There's a machine inside that you can pick up by yourself. It doesn't cost money, and no one cares. I often come to drink juice these days."

Xia Feng touched her little head.

"How are you, are you happy these days?"

"happy."

"Just be happy."

"This time you wake up, I'm happier, hehe."

Xia Feng noticed that Guigui was also wearing a slender ring around his neck. He guessed that this should be a device to suppress and monitor ore disease.

Lean back on the chair and lift your head.

The surrounding area was very quiet. At this time, there were only him and Guigui in the empty hall. The entire base seemed to be completely closed. There were no windows in the surrounding walls. I can't tell the time, and I can't even know the weather, environment, geographical location, etc. outside.

Xia Feng didn't know where the No. [-] experimental base was. It might be in a large city in Colombia, it might be built on a snow-capped mountain like Chaldea, or it might be in a desolate desert. He didn't know.

Judging from the current situation, he and Guigui are undoubtedly very safe. Not only him, but even Guigui has received ore disease suppression treatment. Hemo is quite reliable.

"Drip drip!"

While thinking, the ring on Xia Feng's neck suddenly flickered a few times, and then made a sound like a communicator.

"Number 020, number 020, please go back to the fourth floor later, Commissioner White-faced Owl wants to explain something to you."

Xia Feng was startled by this voice, but after listening carefully, it seemed to be Aina's voice.

It seems that this ring also has the function of unilateral communication, and it may also have the function of positioning. Aina knows exactly where she and the turtle are.

It doesn't matter, this level of surveillance is acceptable.

Xia Feng drank all the juice in his hand, threw away the cup, and patted Guigui on the head.

"Let's go, I'll go back and meet that white hair."

"kindness."

Back on the fourth floor, Aina was standing at the door of the room waiting for him.

"I'm back, what's the matter, Sister Na."

Aina pointed to a small room next to her.

"Commissioner White-faced Owl is waiting for you inside."

"Oh."

Xia Feng asked Guigui to go back first, and then walked to that room alone.

"drop!"

His fingerprints successfully opened the door of the room, which seemed to be an ordinary room like a conference room.

Pushing open the door, he quickly saw the white-faced owl sitting at the table.

At this time, she was wearing a long white dress, with an armband with the Rhineland symbol of life hanging on her arm. Under her long snow-white hair, those strange orange pupils shimmered.

To be honest, he was still a little nervous when he met a stranger like Aina for the first time, but he was not nervous at all when he saw the white-faced owl.

Because, he had poked her in the head countless times in the infrastructure, and looked at her funny reaction that was completely inconsistent with the character with a smirk on his face.

Xia Feng raised his hand and pulled out the chair opposite the white-faced owl, and sat down on it, as casually as if he was eating with his cousin.If the gap between the chair and the table hadn't been too narrow, he would have put his feet on the table.

The white-faced owl's expression didn't change at all from the beginning to the end.

She looked at Xia Feng, and a mechanically calm voice came out of her mouth.

"Number 020, you seem to be in a good mood, which is a bit beyond my expectation."

Xia Feng waved his hand.

"It's not bad. By the way, Hemer is still sleeping."

"Dr. Hemo left the No. 4 experimental base half an hour ago, and went to Rhine Life headquarters to report the progress of the experiment to the person in charge of the Originium project regularly. He is expected to return to the No. 11 base at 4 o'clock tonight."

Sure enough, Hemer is not the person in charge of the Originium project yet.

Xia Feng adjusted his sitting posture.

"Xiaobai, what do you want from me?"

"noob?"

"It's you, it's my pet name for you."

"Number 020, please don't give me strange nicknames. I am the data maintenance specialist of Rhine Life and Dr. Hemer's assistant. You can call me White-faced Owl directly."

"Okay, Bai Gu Gu."

The white-faced owl did not speak.

Xia Feng is not nervous at all now, instead he feels like he is breaking a can, because he knows that being nervous is useless.

Xia Feng secretly smiled, teasing the white-faced owl is really fun.

Coughing lightly, he stopped joking and asked the white-faced owl.

"Commissioner White-faced Owl, I heard that you want to explain something to me, what is it?"

"You rescued subject No. 019, and Dr. Hemer promised to treat your ore disease. I'm here to explain the initial inspection to you."

"Oh, you said."

"According to the results of the imaging test, number 020, the outline of internal organs is blurred, abnormal shadows are visible, the detection of origin stone particles in the circulatory system is abnormal, the fusion rate of somatic cells and origin stone is 12%, and the crystallization density of blood origin stone is 0.48u/L. stage can be confirmed as moderately infected with ore disease."

After listening to the white-faced owl's explanation, Xia Feng felt like an idiot.

"That... I don't quite understand these data, little. Commissioner White-faced Owl, can you introduce me to my condition in an easy-to-understand way?"

The white-faced owl looked at Xia Feng quietly, as if the whole person had entered a standby state.

Then, a mechanical sound came out of her mouth.

"Number 020, your constitution is very special. The fusion rate of somatic cells and origin stones reached 12% in a very short period of time. This is a terrifying rate of disease. Fortunately, this deterioration trend has been suppressed now. This is Dr. Hemer worked tirelessly for two days and two nights."

It turned out to be the case.

After listening to the white-faced owl's explanation, Xia Feng felt warm in his heart. It seems that this guy Hemo is not just talking about coping with things, but she is really doing her best to heal herself.

"Aha, then I really have to thank Hemo. Oh, by the way, I mentioned to her earlier about the abnormal phenomenon in my body. I don't know if you have drawn any conclusions?"

After Xia Feng asked this question, the white-faced owl on the opposite side fell into "standby" again.

After a long time, a mechanical sound came out.

"This anomaly is very complicated, and I have to wait for Dr. Hemer to explain it to you personally."

"oh oh."

Xia Feng felt that there was nothing wrong with his question, why did this guy react so slowly?
Tired of waiting, he no longer wanted to talk to the white-faced owl.

"Commissioner White-faced Owl, is there nothing else to do?"

"You can leave now."

"Farewell."

Xia Feng stood up from the chair and walked to the door in two steps.

Just as he was about to open the door to leave, his movements stopped.

Xia Feng lowered his head, as if he was weighing something in his heart, while thinking, he turned his head to look at the white-faced owl.

Then, he withdrew his finger that was about to touch the fingerprint recognition, turned around and walked step by step in front of the white-faced owl.

Under the blank gaze of the white-faced owl, Xia Feng raised his hand and grasped the pinch of feathers standing on top of her head.

Xia Feng held the feather expressionlessly, and tugged lightly.

Nothing has changed.

At this moment, the air fell into a strange atmosphere.

The white-faced owl still maintained the same expression for thousands of years.

"Number 020, I cannot understand your behavior at this moment."

Xia Feng let go of his hand.

"Sorry, it's okay, goodbye."

He lowered his head and muttered to himself as he walked out.

"Why can't you pull it out? I thought I could pull it out and plug it back in. It's strange."
