Zombies don't need to rest

Xiao Wang is still under the supervision of Jin Mucheng, conducting simple experiments that are highly repetitive and have been repeated countless times every day.

Since the last time this guy suddenly "mutated" and said some inexplicable words to himself, he has always looked so cold.

And after he failed to resign and found no problems during the hospital inspection, it is very difficult for Xiao Wang to find an opportunity to resign now.

And I don't know if it's my own illusion, it seems that after the failure of resignation, I was found not sick.

It seems that I have been listed as the focus of attention.

After a day's work, I bid farewell to the expressionless Jin Mucheng.

Xiao Wang walked alone on the path between the dormitory area and the living area.

Occasionally, I would meet colleagues from Jin Mucheng on the side of the road.

They had the same black suits, and the same expressionless faces.

They stop to say hello out of politeness as they pass by.

But the stiff faces combined with their black formal suits, and the way they suddenly stopped and bowed and greeted with standardized smiles, made the supposedly harmonious simultaneous encounter look a bit like some kind of abnormal power organization, Some kind of shady ritual is going on.

But fortunately, after these days of running-in, Xiao Wang has gradually adapted to the existence of these people.

Although this group of guys, including Jin Mucheng, behaved very strangely, their efficiency was quite high.

And they don't like to talk, and they don't show any special behavior except that they often stare at themselves with incomprehensible eyes.

Since they came to the Federal Academy of Sciences, the former Dean Liu has rarely appeared, and the experimental projects that have been stagnant for more than 30 years have also been restarted one after another in recent days.

Although all the projects, the atmosphere in the laboratory is a little weird because of the participation of these guys.

But in the final analysis, after a lapse of 30 years, the Federal Academy of Sciences has once again embarked on the road of scientific research.

Everything seems to be fine except . . .

Looking down at the blinking indicator light on the phone, Xiao Wang didn't make any sound.

Silently raised his head and glanced at the cameras everywhere on the path.

As they walk, they are slowly rotating and adjusting their angles to align themselves.

And whenever he is about to walk into a short-term monitoring blind spot.

Immediately you will meet a man in black standing there.

When I pass by, the other party will nod and say hello, with a standard eight-teeth smile, watching me walk into the monitoring range again.

Under such monitoring, he didn't know whether other people had noticed these abnormalities, but Xiao Wang was never able to completely relax and start the experiment like others.

The new dean was elusive, and the experiment started by those in Jin Mucheng was approved by the new dean.

According to the news that Xiao Wang got while chatting with his companions, there are currently 50 scientific research projects in the Federal Academy of Sciences, involving about [-] experimenters.

And in all the laboratories that started working, the situation was similar to my own.

Jin Mucheng is only responsible for assigning tasks to guide the progress, and he doesn't care about other things, including how to operate, how to proceed, and how to verify.

He just told himself what the task of the next stage was.

If you submit the results yourself or point out that there is a problem with the experimental process and cannot be operated.

He will change and assign new tasks.

Like, an overseer.

This is Xiao Wang's summary of Jin Mucheng.

The same goes for other labs.

In the cafeteria, Xiao Wang once heard other people discussing these new colleagues.

They all thought these people were not bad.

First, they can get experimental projects, funds and consumables.

Second, they are very talkative, they can ask what they need, and they can also communicate in time to make changes to unreasonable task arrangements.

This has gradually heated up the research atmosphere of the entire Federal Academy of Sciences in recent days.

Xiao Wang can obviously feel that the people chatting in the cafeteria have gradually changed from gossip and complaints in the past to the current experiments and technical difficulties.

Although this is only the first start after 30 years, it is just showing a little sign.

But compared to the previous Federal Academy of Sciences, it finally looks like a scientific research institution here.

When Xiao Wang returned to the office once, he heard researchers in the same office discussing the current dual leadership system implemented by the Federal Academy of Sciences.

After these days of observation they unanimously confirmed.

The so-called dual-track system is to hand over all the logistics work to the new dean. With his unknown background and background, he can get a lot of experimental funds and materials.

It's just that he will arrange people to monitor the progress, and he has the final say on what kind of experiments to start.

As for the original Dean Liu, there are reports that he is considering retiring because of his age, and replace him with a technical talent who is truly capable of leading everyone to carry out large-scale research projects.

Candidates have not yet been determined.

But there are rumors that the next dean will be selected within the Federal Academy of Sciences, or among several universities in the Federation.

In short, the dean is responsible for purely technical issues.

Leave it alone, except for technology-related items.

Such rumors made many people regain their energy, and with the help of those men in black, they started their research that had been interrupted for 30 years.

But Xiao Wang always had a question and didn't know who to ask.

That is, the researchers of the Federal Academy of Sciences who held important positions 30 years ago and have not had much influence due to time delays in the past 30 years.

It's gone now.

The companion said that those people had already joined the No. [-] Research Institute.

Xiao Wang didn't know if it was true, but he did see those people leaving the living area with their luggage.

But now that the best researcher has left, he wants to choose the dean among the remaining people?

Choose a person who has no experience 30 years ago, and now has learned the spirit of the general secretary's speech for 30 years, as the technical director?

No way?

Seeing a mysterious man in black appearing in front of him again, Xiao Wang silently walked over to him and nodded his head to say hello, then he stopped wandering and walked directly to his dormitory.

In the corner downstairs, he saw Jin Mucheng again, and the guy looked at him expressionlessly at this moment.

After Xiao Wang walked into the elevator, Jin Mucheng's figure disappeared in place.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Xiao Wang got ready to go to bed after washing.

When I drew the curtains, I subconsciously glanced at the path below, and was surprised to find that there was a large group of people in black clothes gathering.

Pretending not to see it, he pulled the curtains and turned off the lights, lying on the bed and watching the flashing lights of his mobile phone, Xiao Wang covered his mouth to keep himself from shouting.

What are these people doing together at this late hour?

he does not know.

He didn't dare to look more, and he didn't dare to inquire.

The ubiquitous monitoring and the communication lights that are on anytime and anywhere make him terrified.

Get up.

Because he knew that as long as there was movement in his room, when he opened the door, he would definitely see those guys in black suits in the corridor.

It would be great if Jin Mucheng didn't show those abnormalities that day.

I can be like everyone else without noticing anything, happily participate in the experiment that I finally hoped for, and enjoy the high-quality logistics provided by these guys, as well as the experimental funds and materials that can be satisfied as long as they are proposed.

But no.

Although the bruise on the wrist has disappeared, the scene of that day is still unforgettable.

Who is that man named Zhao Mucheng?

Why did he let himself leave as soon as possible?

What's going on here?

Why is the Federal Academy of Sciences under surveillance?

Why did he let himself go to Mr. Jiang?

A series of questions linger in my mind.

Xiao Wang knew that he had fallen into a huge whirlpool.

And the center of the vortex lies.

In the end, I have to trust the Federal Academy of Sciences and the higher-level leadership agencies.

Still believe in that stranger Zhao Mucheng who has never heard of the other party's name.

Reason tells him that the Federation is worthy of trust.

But his intuition made him choose to trust Zhao Mucheng.

It's just, how can I resign and leave in such a situation?

He didn't dare to touch the phone, just lay quietly on the bed and looked at the ceiling in the dark.

There was no sound from outside.

If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes when I drew the curtain just now, it would be impossible to know that so many people were gathering below.

Could it be, what's wrong with me?

Xiao Wang was stunned suddenly.

Because he once heard a doctor friend say that there is a kind of mental illness that can make people "see" things that never happened, and believe in them.

So it's your own problem?

Look at the wrist that has fully recovered.

He was suddenly a little unsure whether there was a circle of bruises in this place a few days ago.

When everyone around you is different from yourself.

After all, he had come into contact with the truth.

Or, am I the only one who has gone astray?

In the dark night, Xiao Wang lay on the bed and suffered from insomnia again.

The next morning, Xiao Wang, who hadn't slept all night, rolled over and sat up in bed.

After a simple wash, he opened the door, and there were no people in black formal suits in the corridor.

He walked down the stairs silently, and continued to walk into the path between the dormitory area and the living area according to his recent habit.

It wasn't until he returned that he suddenly realized that he hadn't met those guys again along the way.

He raised his head and glanced above, and he was surprised to find that the surveillance cameras that would follow him were gone.

Turn to the entrance of the path again, this time, Xiao Wang focused on looking for those surveillance cameras.

However, when he walked all the way to the door of the cafeteria, he suddenly realized it.

All monitoring is gone.

Standing at the door of the cafeteria, he turned around and looked at the familiar scene.

On the shelf, on the side of the road, at the entrance of the building, all the places that should be monitored are all empty and there is nothing.

Pursing his lips, he pushed open the door of the cafeteria, and the hustle and bustle from inside reached his ears.

Some researchers were discussing their progress loudly, some were complaining that they had forgotten too many things in 30 years, and some were lamenting that the Academy of Sciences had finally returned to its normal rhythm.

No guys in black suits.

There is no new dean.

There is no Golden Mucheng in the corner position either.

The companion sat in the corner with the dinner plate and waved to himself.
