Chapter 107 Encounter

"You actually guessed it right."

CC was surprised to see dozens of hafnium alloy safes in front of her.

She did doubt Lin Xian's judgment just now, but facts speak louder than words:

"How did you do it? I've studied it... The places where these garbage trucks dump garbage are really calculated in real time. Sometimes the same truck has to go to two places to unload. Can you predict this?"

"It's hard to explain, but it's not important."

Lin Xian glanced at the monitoring room in the distance. The new supervisor was still looking at the air in front of him and laughing. There should be no risk if he was careful:

"Quick, find Lin Xian's safe quickly. We don't have much time. Only 14 minutes."

"Why? Why only 14 minutes?"

CC was full of question marks.

"This is also hard to explain... Just listen to me."

Lin Xian rushed out quickly with his back bent.

Time is money now. How can I have time to explain the worldview to CC? Besides, I will forget it tomorrow if I explain it, which is a waste of words.

"You go over there, I'll look over here. Be careful when you look, keep your body down, and don't let the supervisor see you."

"Okay."

After showing off these two tricks just now, CC obviously trusted Lin Xian more. He listened to Lin Xian and hid on the other side. The two of them searched for the safe separately.

Wei Shengjin...

Wang Shuo...

Among the messy and crooked hafnium alloy safes, Lin Xian saw two familiar names.

In the bank warehouse in the first dream, all the safes were embedded in the wall, and the safes of these two people were right next to him.

Especially Wei Shengjin's safe, which was right to his own safe.

When CC used an oxyacetylene spray gun to cut the safe, he was afraid of damaging the things inside... so he started from Wei Shengjin's safe.

But things did not go as he wished. In front of the powerful aerospace material new hafnium alloy, the 3000-degree high-temperature spray gun was like tickling, and could not do anything to Wei Shengjin.

Finding the safe was much easier than Lin Xian thought. After all, if the name was wrong, he could just glance over it.

And I have to say, they were lucky. There was no safe close to the ground with the nameplate facing down, which made the search much easier. The only two safes facing down were placed on top of other safes, so they could see the names on the nameplates as long as they squatted down.

They looked at all kinds of names.

But Lin Xian just couldn't find his own safe.

He looked at CC, who was crouching over:

"Did you find it?"

CC shook her head:

"No, I've checked them all, Lin Xian's safe is not here."

"What's going on?"

Lin Xian looked around at the number of safes, and then compared it with the bank warehouse in his memory:

"The number is wrong, there shouldn't be so few safes. There should be at least more than a hundred, or even two hundred."

"That means the remaining safes haven't been shipped out yet."

Unlike Lin Xian, CC's tone was very calm, as if such a result had been expected:

"The next wave of garbage trucks will arrive at 00:57, and that batch of garbage trucks should be loaded with the remaining safes. Lin Xian's safe should be on one of them."

"No, how do you know so clearly?"

Lin Xian was very surprised.

In fact, he had long felt strange, why CC knew accurately that the hafnium alloy safes were to be unloaded here today?

But he was busy opening the safe just now, so he didn't ask her about it.

But now it seems...

CC must have her unique source of information, and may know a lot of information about Xindonghai City!

Otherwise, she wouldn't know exactly what time the garbage truck would come to the garbage treatment plant.

"How did you know this information?"

Lin Xian took off the Rhine Cat mask on his face and looked directly at CC:

"And why do you know it so well? You know exactly what time the garbage truck will come. You're exaggerating. Even the workers at the garbage treatment plant may not have such accurate information, right?"

"That's why."

CC took out a small object from her pocket and opened her palm for Lin Xian to see.

It was something that hung on the ear, like a Bluetooth headset.

It looked familiar.

Lin Xian turned his head to look at the monitor in the middle monitoring room of the garbage treatment plant, who was looking at the air and grinning.

He also had this kind of thing on his ear.

"What is this?"

"I don't know what this thing is called." CC pinched the Bluetooth headset-like thing and examined it:

"But this is a device that every garbage treatment plant worker wears. When worn on the ear, a TV-like light screen can appear in front of you. It can be operated with your eyes. It's very advanced."

Lin Xian understood.

It seems that there are similar things in 2023 when he lives.

Google Glasses, VR Glasses, Holographic Glasses... Anyway, the product names are all called what they are, but in fact, the core is the same thing.

The lenses of this kind of glasses are actually a special display that can display electronic information. And there are also special small devices on the frames and lenses that sense the line of sight and the focal length of the pupil to determine the user's operation purpose.

This thing is still very advanced in 2023.

Lin Xian has only briefly understood and watched the PPT and press conference of the product. It is not clear whether the specific experience of using it is as good as the one demonstrated in the PPT...

But in reality, it is indeed rare to see anyone wearing this kind of thing, almost none.

From this point of view, the technology should not be very mature yet.

But this thing that CC took...at first glance, it looks very high-end and has a sense of technology.

It is about the same size as an ordinary ear-hook Bluetooth headset. It is semi-circular and arc-shaped, and can just be hung on the ear.

Lin Xian didn't know how this kind of thing could emit the "light curtain in front of his eyes", but since CC said so, it definitely couldn't be a lie.

It seems that the technology in New Donghai City in the Second Dream is still very advanced.

Although it does not meet Lin Xian's expectations, compared with 2023, there have been some incomprehensible high-tech products.

"How did you get this?"

"I stole it from other garbage treatment plants. I have stolen it for a long time." CC replied calmly:

"This thing seems very advanced to us, but to the people in Xindonghai City, this kind of thing is very backward. They only regard it as

It is used as a general work communication device, just for sending and receiving notifications. "

"Isn't this thing capable of identification? Can you steal it and use it?" Lin Xian asked.

"There is a password, but I cracked it." CC answered easily.

Can.

Lin Xian nodded.

CC's attributes as a cryptographic expert are still there, but he doesn't know whether the skill of cracking codes was learned in the second dream, or whether he inherited it directly from those memory fragments.

"I see."

Lin Xian looked at the gadget in CC’s hand:

"This thing is a communication device for the staff of the garbage treatment plant. Through this device, you can check the location, route, and even the specific tasks of each garbage truck, right?"

"So you already knew that tonight, a bunch of hafnium alloy safes would be transported to this garbage factory, and then you found a way to sneak in here."

"It's not as exaggerated as you think."

CC holds the "Bluetooth headset" with two fingers and rotates:

"After I cracked the password, many functions were actually unavailable. But I could indeed see every garbage truck.

The task route, factory departure time, and other information about garbage disposal. "

"In the memory fragment, the long-haired and bearded man told me that the safe he left for me was stored in Thame Bank. He was supposed to tell me the password, but in the end he didn't know why he didn't tell me... I don’t know if it’s because my memory is incomplete.”

"There is no such bank in Old Donghai. It must be in Xindonghai City, but I can't get into Xindonghai. I have been waiting for an opportunity near here for a long time. I have thought of many ways and am at the garbage treatment plant every day. Look through newspapers and information to see if you can find some useful information."

"Later, I saw in a newspaper the bankruptcy announcement and safe claim form published by Thame Bank. There was a deadline written on it. If the safe is not claimed by August 28, it will be disposed of as garbage."

"This may be my only chance, so I tried to steal the ear-hook device of a garbage plant supervisor, this is it. Then after cracking the password, I can see the work information of all garbage treatment plants in Xintonghai City, as well as the garbage trucks recycling route and stop time.”

"The current garbage treatment plant is responsible for the garbage transportation in the area where Taimu Bank is located. And the garbage vehicles responsible for recycling Taimu Bank enter the factory at 00:25 or 00:57. Only these two fleets pass through Taimu. bank."

"So, if Lin Xian's safe is not in the garbage truck of the 00:25 batch, it must be in the garbage truck that arrives at 00:57."

CC was completely unaware of the seriousness of the matter and stared at the steel gate not far away:

"We just need to continue hiding here and wait for the batch of garbage trucks to arrive at the factory at 00:57. Lin Xian's safe must be on one of those batches of garbage trucks."

…

Look at CC who is confident and relaxed.

Lin Xian didn't speak.

The next batch of garbage trucks will not arrive at the garbage plant until 00:57... That is no different from arriving 20,000 years later.

Because they can’t come either.

This dream and future world will be destroyed by white light in a few minutes at 00:42, and then the day will repeat endlessly, and everything will start over again.

There is no tomorrow here...

Never.

The 00:57 minute that CC has been waiting for will never come.

"Um...that..."

Lin Xian was about to speak but stopped:

"Forget it, let's talk about something else."

He looked at CC:

"Since you have been here for a long time, can you provide me with some clues on how to sneak into New Donghai City? Any clues will do, as long as they can help me enter New Donghai City... It doesn't matter even if it is dangerous, just tell me I."

"You want to enter New Donghai City?"

"That's right." Lin Xian nodded:

"I want to enter Xintonghai City to find two books and some information. These things cannot be found in the garbage factory. They can only be found in Xindonghai City, so I have to go there."

"Looking for two books?"

CC blinked and looked at Lin Xian in disbelief:

"Just for two books, you went to sneak into Xindonghai City...are you willing to die?"

"Let's go to each other. Your behavior seems similar to me. Besides, what's the difference between New Donghai City and this place? Why are you all so afraid of going in?"

Lin Xian changed his position and leaned against the stacked safes:

"Is the security in Xindonghai City very tight? Or are there identification devices everywhere that can immediately identify and eliminate outsiders?"

"have no idea."

CC shook his head, sat on a hafnium alloy safe, and looked up at Lin Xian:

"No one has successfully infiltrated this new type of city. Or maybe... they just went in and couldn't get out, and died inside. No one knows about these things, at least I don't know, and I have never heard of it."

"It may be like you said, the security inside is tight. But it may also be unexpected.

, Xindonghai City is just a facade. But... who dares to bet? "

CC chuckled lightly and turned to look at the high steel wall, which was like a vertical abyss:

"Everyone has only one life, no one dares to gamble."

"I think you dare to bet." Lin Xian complained.

"That's because I have a reason bigger than life, so I have to gamble."

CC turned back and looked at Lin Xian:

"But it's obviously not worth it just to find two books."

"That's not necessarily the case."

Lin Xian smiled and looked up at the majestic steel wall with no boundaries:

"My life is worthless, and I can afford to gamble."

"How about two books?"

"It's better than a piece of paper."

Poof——

CC was amused and laughed, her eyes behind the mask curved into shallow crescents:

"You really know how to joke."

"But...it's a pity to be honest. If you could have met me earlier today, you wouldn't have to think about sneaking into Shintokai City to find those two books."?

"What did you say?"

Lin Xian left the safe he was leaning on and stood up straight:

"What would have happened if I had met you earlier?"

CC took out the small "Bluetooth headset", weighed it in his hand, and said with a smile:

"If it were earlier, I could tell you... At the No. 314 garbage treatment plant, a large number of water-soaked books will be transported tonight. If you want to find books, can you just go there and find them?"

"It's a pity...it's definitely too late now."

"It has long been burned to ashes."
