Chapter 452 This Is Not My Fault

N city.

A week has passed since the bombing, and not many people are paying attention to this matter even in the neighborhood where the incident occurred.

There are so many things happening every day, and my energy is limited, so I can only chat a few words after dinner. The residents in other parts of N City have even forgotten about this matter.

According to the report, the explosion was caused by a gas leak in an old building.

There are many accidents caused by gas and gas in old buildings. If there was no problem during the last inspection, either someone cut the gas pipe or a mouse chewed through the gas pipe. This is nothing new.

That is to say, after this incident, the rat-catching company's orders increased significantly. A certain marketing claims that there may be a rat-catching company behind it.

The tug-of-war between new rumors and refutations begins again.

However, most people no longer care about that.

It’s a new week, it’s time to go to work in the morning.

In a prosperous business district with dense high-rise buildings, a high-efficiency and fast-paced day has begun again.

In one of the buildings.

The headquarters of one of Brother Bao's companies is here.

The employees clocked in one after another. In the past few days, they had discussed a lot of gossip about the boss in private, but they did not dare to talk so much when they were at work. The company has been in a bit of turmoil recently. Many people have been cleared out, and those who have stayed in the company have been eliminated one by one. They are all very honest. None of them want to lose their jobs at this time.

Everyone acted like a serious elite.

However, when the elites checked in today, they failed.

At the entrance, I don't know when there was a statue.

The upper body is human.

It seems to be the upper body portrait of the boss Brother Bao, half-naked, showing off his muscles. Also seems too robust.

Still gilded.

The lower body is...what?

I didn't dare to say for a while.

Overall, this statue is the type that the boss admires, with strong martial ethics. The muscles are particularly well developed. If placed on a normal person, it can be said to be stylish and classy.

But such an "artistic" statue...

Something feels wrong.

After thinking about it, it may be the boss's aesthetic taste.

"Is this the genie of Aladdin's lamp - a boss model? Do we want to make a wish to it?" someone whispered.

"Uh... it's not the magic lamp genie. I think the boss is imitated by Feng Yi? Do you remember Feng Yi? He has a very popular artistic style, and his lower body should be a snake's tail." Someone whispered.

Some time ago, due to the Blue Diamond incident, the artistic figure of Feng Yi that was revealed became popular on the Internet for a few days, and the scope was not limited to China. Those of them in the countries on the other side of the ocean have also seen it.

Those who still remember that shape will be reminded of it as soon as they look at the statue in front of them.

"Oh, the pattern does look like a snake's tail!"

"But it felt like something was missing."

"Lack of...artistic beauty?"

"Shh!"

I didn’t dare to say more, so I moved to the private chat group.

[The boss’s aesthetics are still as good as ever]

[The proportions are too inconsistent]

[Like a bug covered in muscles]

…

They didn't see it before get off work yesterday, but one night passed and it suddenly appeared today.

According to a person on duty in their chat group, the placement and angle of the statue were all instructed by an expert.

In other words, it will not be moved unless necessary.

You will see it every day when you clock in and get off work.

The employees all had the same doubt in their tangled hearts: Why does Brother Bao want to do this whole thing? To ward off evil spirits?

At the same time, someone also asked Brother Bao face to face.

"Brother Bao, why do you suddenly have to get this, emm... new image?"

Brother Bao held a cigar and said in a deep tone, "You don't understand."

This is the will of my Feng ancestors!

Although I don’t know what the ancestors liked, you can’t go wrong if you follow the “Feng Family Authentic Sect”!

If Feng Yi does this, I will do the same!

Hahaha, you look like a family at first glance!

After the statue was completed, before moving it to the company, he specially set up the incense table. Facing the faint smoke floating in the sky, he hoped that the spirits of his ancestors in heaven could hear his thoughts:

Ancestor! My beloved and beloved ancestor!

I am Ah Bao, a descendant of the Feng family~

I'm here to worship you!

Do you feel my filial piety?

From Brother Bao's point of view, these actions are a sign of goodwill and loyalty.

Of course people have to know!

The ancestors didn't know if they could hear it, but Feng Yi definitely could.

So Brother Bao happily took a few photos and a multi-angle video at the door of the company and sent them to Feng Yi to show his respect for his ancestors and fully carry forward their will!

There is a time difference between the two places, and it is already night here in Yangcheng.

Feng Yi was thinking about things on the terrace, and then he was distracted by Uncle Bao's photo of a "species with strange behavior".

He stared blankly at the newly received messages on his phone.

Not so!

You misunderstood your ancestors!

They absolutely have no such will!

Where did you misunderstand me? !

This shouldn't be my fault!

That night, Feng Yi's dreams were all about strange, muscular and extremely muscular Qixing species——

Screaming, twisting, rolling, dark crawling...

A dream filled with torment.

When Feng Yi woke up the next morning, his eyes were a little blue.

It took me a while to delete all the strange images from my mind.

It’s better not to tell the housekeeper about this.

Feng Yi finally suppressed the strange species from Uncle Bao's side from his mind. In less than half a day, he saw another strange species with greater impact.

Not far from Feng Yi Collection, in the warehouse rented by Steve.

A statue full of art and selfishness was placed in front of Feng Yi.

Feng Yi looked at the statue for a long time without saying a word.

Today Steve called him over and asked him to help refer to the interior decoration of the building.

As soon as Feng Yi came, he saw the surprise that Steve was hiding -

a high-precision statue with a human head and a snake body.

Yes, unlike Feng Yi and Brother Bao, who were half human and half snake, this one only had a human head.

Steve was also very excited and satisfied to share: "How about it? My new artistic shape!"

Feng Yi is now seriously allergic to the four words "artistic shape".

Don't let the housekeeper see this!

Faced with Steve's enthusiasm, Feng Yi touched his conscience and praised a few words.

After talking about some decoration matters and helping to refer to several plans, Feng Yi thought for a while and asked Steve:

"I went to N City to attend an exchange meeting a few days ago. There was also a climate seminar at that time. I heard people mention the problem of abnormal climate. Steve, you have experienced the abnormal climate period. The disaster weather at that time was terrible, right?"

When talking about the abnormal climate period, the smile on Steve's face was restrained.

"That's not terrible, that's despair!"

Steve is more than ten years older than Feng Yi. He was born in the abnormal climate period and spent his entire youth in that period.

"I still have nightmares frequently now." Steve said.

"If I experience it again..." Feng Yi asked.

"Kill me!"

Steve looked at Feng Yi seriously:

"Believe me, except for antisocial personality, no one wants to experience it again!"

Feng Yi paused and said: "I heard that someone proposed to study a meteorological weapon to change the disaster weather by human power. If there is continuous abnormal disaster weather, there is no need to be afraid."

Steve said indifferently: "Oh, someone proposed it before, but there has been no movement in these years. It is not easy to develop such a difficult weapon!"

"If it can be developed, do you agree with the release of such a thing? I looked through the previous papers and found that when some experts mentioned this, they expressed concerns and opposition, worrying that human ambitions and desires would trigger another world war, which is a wrong choice."

Steve couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "For me, I will consider whether it exists first, and then mention other things. Ambition, world war, etc., I will worry about it after it exists."

He put down the things at hand, and his eyes were unfocused.

"You haven't experienced the society of that era, so you can't feel it by watching documentaries. Suddenly a tornado appeared and rolled the whole city into ruins. Not just one, but several! Many! Tornadoes gathered like a party, and you couldn't escape even if you drove as hard as you could!

"The videos that can be found on the Internet now are all processed. There are some shocking things. You can go to the library database to check. You should have the authority to check them now.

"At that time, the weather changed too quickly, and it was very difficult to predict the weather. You didn't know what you would encounter tomorrow, next month, or next year. Drought, flood, hail, hurricane, too many possibilities.

"The people you love, the career you love, the city you love... everything may be destroyed.

"The ancients said, 'Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and treat all things as straw dogs.' Under that level of disaster, humans are no different from other creatures.

"Whether it is a rich area or a slum, an intelligent creature, or a weed that can't move its roots... the chances of survival or extinction are about the same.

" "Even if we develop a little bit of the power to escape, not everyone can grasp it. For us... Oh, you won't, you have enough money. For someone like me, even if I am better off than most people and have social status, if the end of the world comes, I won't be able to get a ticket to board the 'Noah's Ark'.

"For most people, if this kind of weather weapon appears, it can be regarded as a retreat.

"The abnormal climate period is not over. There will be more. Maybe hundreds or thousands of years later, or soon.

"No one knows how long the next one will last.

"No one knows when the sixth mass extinction will come. If it comes again, how many creatures can survive?"

Steve looked at Feng Yi's serious face, worried that his words would scare him, and smiled and patted Feng Yi on the shoulder, saying:

"Don't worry, we may not encounter it again. But my opinion is that if there is such a self-saving weather weapon, people in the future will at least have the choice of survival and the courage to fight."

Feng Yi nodded. He didn't express any opinions. After all, he hadn't experienced it, and all his feelings were limited.

The atmosphere was a bit heavy. Feng Yi sensed Steve's psychological trauma from that period, and stopped talking about the weather. Instead, he asked, "How did your cooperation with the Joint Security Bureau begin? Was it really as the news said?"

Steve smacked his lips and said, "No. The news was full of embellishments. My cooperation with the Joint Security Bureau actually had a not-so-wonderful start..."

During the period of abnormal weather, Steve bought many houses. At that time, house prices fluctuated greatly, and no one knew whether the houses he bought would be damaged by disaster weather. Steve bought some low-priced houses. The houses he bought were not suitable for living in, and he used them to adopt stray reptiles.

Steve did not tell Feng Yi in detail how many venomous snakes he had raised, what his intentions were, and what his mentality was at the time.

Don't talk about dark things to young people.

He was young at that time and faced social turmoil, so his way of thinking was different from that in peaceful times.

A society in a period of abnormal climate is a deformed society with too many dark sides.

He raised the poisonous snakes, protected the poisonous snakes, and allowed the poisonous snakes to protect him.

At that time, there were not that many hospitals that could provide corresponding antivenom. Even if it can be provided, timely treatment may not be possible. Even if it can be cured, can you afford the medical expenses?

Poisonous snakes, in those days, meant absolute danger and murderous intent.

But it's different with Steve.

He may lack force, but at that time, he relied on those poisonous snakes to protect him and his family.

Therefore, he never found venomous snakes scary.

What a lovely creature!

Venomous snakes, to him, represent security. They are comrades who have fought side by side and supported each other through difficult times!

In that era, he was like a strange swordsman holding his strange double-edged sword, carving a way out of a deformed society.

He knew that many people thought he was a freak, but how many people who came through that period had no psychological problems?

It’s just that some people pretend. Or in peaceful times, it is not obvious.

Once climate abnormalities return and society begins to turmoil, those "abnormalities" hidden deep in people's hearts will explode faster than anyone else.

Dark side Steve would not tell Feng Yi.

"In the first year after the abnormal climate period, the joint conservation organization flourished. One day a thief went to steal something in one of my houses and was bitten by a snake. He was so frightened that he called the police on the spot. At that time, the relevant laws had not yet been issued, and he had experienced During the period of abnormal climate, social unrest has not completely subsided, and the way of handling cases cannot be compared with now.

"The Joint Protection Agency thought I was a promising talent, so they started to cooperate with me. They just kept a close eye on me, fearing that I might raise them secretly. For example, I applied for a private protection agency, and I wanted to raise reptiles legally. Animals, they checked me in a few times, otherwise the progress wouldn’t be so slow!”

After listening to Steve complaining about the UN Security Bureau, chatting about the progress of the project for a while, and having a meal together, Feng Yi went back.

Although Steve didn't mention much about life during the abnormal climate period, Feng Yi could infer a lot of things from his emotional changes.

Look at the sky outside.

It's going to get colder again, and the weather is going to get angry.

However, in the eyes of people who live in an abnormal climate period, even this kind of weather is cute and soft, right?

The next day, Feng Yi received a call from Xiao Geng.

Xiao Geng talked about the new information he had collected.

"The satellite network has been deployed long ago and has been in the testing period for the past two years. At this time, they should be doing the final test before the exercise in the uninhabited waters of the southern hemisphere. The sea, land and sky are very guarded!"

Xiao Geng's last sentence was a reminder to Feng Yi: Don't sneak away to watch the scene or anything, as it will be easy to be discovered.

For a confidential experimental plan of this level, once a suspicious target is discovered, an attack will be launched directly.

Feng Yi also understood.

Give up the thought that just came up.

Well, then you can only watch it through formal channels.

Although the Ancestral Factory has no investment and has not directly participated in this plan, Yue Gengyang, as the person in charge and decision-maker on the surface, naturally has his own channels for information. No need to doubt.

"The exercises that invite people to watch are most likely to be deployed in the first area of ​​the Butterfly Project. They will choose to conduct them during the active season of tropical cyclones, which is more convincing. The location of the first area is during the active season of tropical cyclones. It’s summer to early autumn, and it’s expected to be five to six months away, but the list will be finalized within one to two months,” Xiao Geng said.

Feng Yi also had a sense of urgency.

He has to make more preparations in one to two months.

Xiao Geng: "They must have stricter requirements for accompanying people. I don't know yet whether I can bring anyone with me, or how many people I can bring. Even if I can bring people with me, it doesn't mean that I can bring whoever I want. It definitely needs to be reviewed and confirmed.”

He gave these analyzes to Feng Yi.

"If I receive a formal invitation, I will add you to the list of entourage and give it a try. It would be best if you can pass, but if you can't, you need to take other measures."

Feng Yi is not a patrolling security guard. He is famous now, and his review is definitely different from ordinary security guards.

Yue Gengyang needs to explain these things clearly to Feng Yi.

Feng Yi can also understand.

Xiao Geng said this to prepare him. If he really wanted to be on the list of the first batch to watch the exercise, he would either apply for a spot as an entourage, or expose his other identity in the Ancestral Factory.

Of course, for Feng Yi, it would be best if he could go there as an entourage and there would be less trouble.

He asked: "What else do I need to do to pass the review as an entourage?"

Yue Gengyang said: "I haven't found out the specific review standards yet, but I suggest you make more presence in the Joint Security Bureau. As the supplier of the sixth database and an important participant in the Butterfly Plan, even if it is only the Chinese branch, it has great say. If they push behind, the possibility of passing this quota will be greater!"

Feng Yi: "So, I need to take more tasks? But the cycle of important tasks is relatively long."

Yue Gengyang thought for a while: "Why don't you try the publicity room of the Joint Security Bureau? They usually seem to be an insignificant position, but in certain special times, they are effective!"

"Okay, I'll try it."

After talking to Xiao Geng, Feng Yi sat cross-legged in the room, concentrating on thinking.

He first thought about whether to brush another tropical rain forest?

But, after thinking about it, he gave up.

The matter of the previous tropical rain forest has not been completed, and now there are so many people staring at him, it is not convenient, and brushing the second one immediately will not get the result he wants.

In terms of qualifications, even if he brushes another one, in one or two months, he can't compare with those researchers with long qualifications and many achievements.

Moreover, experts who only study animals are indeed at the bottom of the priority list in this matter alone. They can't compare with those big guys who study satellites, meteorology, ecology and other fields.

If you can't compare with them in terms of professionalism, then give full play to other advantages.

I wanted to write 6,000 words in two chapters, but I only wrote 5,000.
