I'm trapped in a cube

The mighty attack came to an abrupt end.

The black smoke in the sky shrank back and turned into a human form.

The black shadow reached out and took the falling Coke.

It was obviously stunned, holding the Coke can for a long time. After a while, a faint black smoke floated out of it and pried open the pull ring on the Coke can.

"Snap!"

The brown-black liquid rolled out with white bubbles, and the bubbles kept bursting. Coke also dripped from the side of the can and sprinkled in the sky.

The black shadow held the Coke can and was silent.

Under Mo Ling's shocked eyes, the black shadow actually picked up the Coke can and poured it on his head, but the Coke went straight through the black shadow's illusory body and drifted into the air.

"It's this taste, yes, I don't remember it anymore..." The black shadow muttered in a daze, as if he remembered something.

It finally calmed down, holding the Coke can, and did not attack Mo Ling again.

The dark head slowly looked at the cube in the sky.

"Has someone finally found me? Where are you from? Pipeline Fortress? Or somewhere else?"

The black shadow eagerly threw a lot of questions to Mo Ling. Before Mo Ling could think of how to answer, the black shadow continued to ask.

"Are you a relic? Or some kind of technological creation? What is the current technological level of mankind?"

These questions made Mo Ling even more unsure of how to answer. He looked at the electronic screen in the cube and planned to find out the identity of the black shadow first.

After writing some simple questions on the electronic screen, Mo Ling directly transmitted the electronic screen to the black shadow, and the black shadow also grabbed the electronic screen directly.

However, the black shadow seemed to not understand the use of the electronic screen. After fiddling with it for a while, he noticed the questions on the electronic screen:

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

Mo Ling was still on guard against the black shadow. Although it spoke human language and its logic and behavior were in line with humans, its strange appearance still made people very suspicious. Therefore, Mo Ling did not answer its questions first, but asked about its origins first.

The shadow stared at the writing on the electronic screen and was stunned for a long time.

"It's been a long time since I saw human writing."

It stroked the electronic screen nostalgically and gently lifted it in front of itself. It looked at it for a while.

"Is this the current human technology? It's amazing."

The dull and strange voice came from its body again.

"I can't remember my name, but I remember that I am a member of the Pipeline Fortress Development Group..."

...

"The first residential area has been completed, just above the current residential area. The living conditions there are much better. Hurry up and move there..."

The shadow vaguely remembered that before he came here, he was organizing the relocation of people in the old residential area of ​​the Pipeline Fortress.

The environment in the old residential area was very bad, but people were used to living there and were not willing to leave. He was given a task to persuade those stubborn elements to move out. Although he was not very interested in this task, he had no way to disobey the order. He could only persuade those who were unwilling to move out every day.

Other than that, he was very thick-skinned. Some people were often annoyed by him and cursed.

He just stood there, letting others finish scolding him, and then continued to persuade him.

They were all people who could reach the fourth level of the abyss, and no one was so stubborn. After scolding, they calmed down. Most people would apologize, pack up and move away. Some people knew that they were impulsive and would offer him two cigarettes, but he declined them all.

"No, just move away early... I'm on a mission and can't smoke."

After some refusal, he always took a can of Coke from others and left quietly.

They were all companions exploring the abyss, and there was no malice between them. It was just that the environment was too bad, and there were always casualties, so everyone was full of hostility.

Too much pressure would transfer negative energy to the people around him.

He knew this very well, so he would not be petty with those who scolded him.

Under such shameless persuasion, the number of residents in the old residential area gradually decreased.

"You have done a good job. Let's move everyone out as soon as possible. The conditions in the No. 0 residential area are too bad, and the pipeline fortress needs to be further renovated, which may affect the structure there. If you stay there, you may get hurt. Tell them the interests involved, and they will understand."

The superiors thought he was very efficient and asked him to continue working hard. It was only then that he knew that the old residential area was now called "No. 0 residential area."

The major renovation of the pipeline fortress was about to begin. The pipeline structure of the No. 0 residential area would change. If you continue to live in it, you will get hurt at best, and at worst you will be directly crushed by the changed pipelines.

After he told the "nail households" about the interests involved, they really packed up and moved out quickly.

"Sure enough, people will only seriously consider it when it involves their own interests."

He persuaded them much faster, and gradually, there was only one household left in the No. 0 residential area.

"Room 0123."

In order to complete the task as quickly as possible, he moved directly to Room 0122, and patiently persuaded the residents of Room 0123 every day. Not only did he explain the pros and cons of relocation clearly, he also asked his superiors for some benefits, promising that the residents of Room 0123 would receive these benefits as long as they moved.

But the residents in room 0123 just don’t want to move out.

The person who lives in Room 0123 is a senior from the pioneering group. He is very old and has a bad temper. He keeps looking through a pile of old books every day. He doesn’t know how he found these when there is such a shortage of materials in the abyss. Book.

"Old senior, hurry up and let me help you move the books away."

"Go, go, don't affect my reading."

"The Pipe Fortress will be renovated soon. No one can live here, and you will be injured by then." He persuaded very patiently, although he had said this many times.

"Come and talk to me again when we start the renovation." The old man still looked indifferent.

"You have to leave first before we can start the renovation. Your safety will not be ignored."

"I'll leave after the transformation first." The old man said calmly.

"You must leave first before we can reform."

"..."

The old man stood up directly and slapped him on the head with the book.

"Get out! If it weren't for your good attitude, I would have taken action! I said I would move out, so don't bother me! Just go and tell your superiors. I will leave naturally when the renovation starts, no need to rush you."

"Okay, I'll try." Covering his head, he reluctantly agreed.

He knew that if he really said that, he would definitely get scolded by his superiors again.

This is the veteran of the pioneering team. No one will risk getting him injured to start the transformation. Although it is simple to say that he will leave as soon as the work starts, but who can guarantee that the senior will not be injured?

No one wanted to take responsibility, so he was allowed to do this offending thing.

They are blocked at both ends and get scolded wherever they go.

Thinking of this, he was unwilling to leave and stayed in front of the old man's door.

"If you don't want to leave, just stay here and don't interfere with my reading."

The old man waved his hand and went back to reading...

"Is this book really so good? Why do you have to read it here? Wouldn't it be the same if you read it somewhere else?" He muttered softly, covering his still aching forehead.
