Nomenclature of Night

Qing Chen stood on the tarmac, the turbojet of the floating car stirred up the noisy wind and waves.

Suddenly, in the distance.

There is a light rail running through the sky between the cities, and the dense windows show white light, like a white pegasus.

Even more amazing is that it is passing between dense buildings.

It is not through the gap between the buildings, but a hole in the body of the tall buildings, and the light rail passes through the building like a tunnel.

The city became mysterious.

"Since you can come out at any time, why stay in prison 18?" Qing Chen asked suddenly.

"Because the prison is cleaner than here? You'll know later," Li Shutong didn't answer directly.

When the waiter turned and led the way, Qing Chen asked in a low voice, "It's one o'clock in the middle of the night, is the restaurant still open?"

Li Shutong glanced at him: "The life in this city that never sleeps has just begun."

"Don't you guys need to sleep? You won't need to work tomorrow?" Qing Chen wondered.

"Qing's previously discovered the unique effect of the neuron connection technology, which can simulate nerve bands outside the brain and help people enter deep sleep. Sleeping for two or three hours a day is enough," Li Shutong said.

"Is there no sequelae to this technique?" Qing Chen asked again.

"Of course," Li Shutong said, "After using this technology for a month, even if you want to sleep late, you won't be able to sleep."

"It's a bit miserable," Qing Chen sighed. Although he worked hard, he occasionally enjoyed sleeping.

Li Shutong said to Qing Chen: “Technology is a double-edged sword. No one knows whether it will bring blessings or disasters to mankind. For example, Li once developed genetically modified fast-growing trees, fast-growing corn, and fast-growing soybeans. Ten years later, large tracts of land can no longer grow plants. The Kashima Consortium originally developed a well-developed animal husbandry industry, but after genetic modification, it was discovered that those genetically modified livestock lost their fertility after three generations of breeding."

While human beings continue to enjoy the achievements of science and technology, they are also constantly suffering from the backlash of wisdom.

Li Shutong continued: "When human beings don't have to sleep for so long, the production efficiency has not improved much, but it has caused the emptiness of the human spiritual world."

Of course, Qing Chen felt that the watch world hadn't suffered such a fierce backlash for the time being, or it might be because they hadn't been so radical in the inner world.

At this time, Qing Chen saw a huge flower boat flying by between the buildings under his feet. The flower boat was decorated with lights and festoons, but it revealed a strange atmosphere.

Qing Chen couldn't understand the totem on the ship.

Li Shutong followed his gaze and looked at it: "Don't look at it. It is a cruise ship of the Mechanical God Church. Every second it sprays liquid oxygen and methane, it uses the blood and sweat of the believers."

During the words, Uncle Li had no expression on his face.

The two sat in the exquisite and luxurious dining room, and the well-dressed waiter brought a braised pork to Li Shutong.

There is only one pair of chopsticks.

"Where is mine?" Qing Chen was puzzled.

"You wear a mask, you can't eat it," Li Shutong ignored a piece of braised pork.

Qing Chen: "..."

After a while, Li Shutong looked up and smiled at him: "Are you hungry?"

"A little bit," Qing Chen said.

As a result, Li Shutong actually called the waiter: "Bring him a bowl of fried noodles."

"Okay Mr. Li," the waiter responded politely.

Even in the Nikko Pavilion, there has never been soy sauce noodles.

After the noodles were ready, Li Shutong held back everyone again, and then said to Qing Chen: "Take off the mask and eat the noodles."

Qing Chen looked out the window while mixing the noodles.

This should be one of the tallest buildings in the city on the 18th. Looking up, there are only two distant buildings standing in the sky with it.

"That is the building of the Qing family and the Li family," Li Shutong explained.

Qing Chen looked down again. The dense buildings were connected by bridges. The whole city was like a galaxy, and the lights and neon were the stars in the galaxy.

Occasionally, a floating car flew past, and the opponent's turbine jet was like a meteor passing by.

At a certain moment, Qing Chen was in an 88-story high building, as if he was in the heaven and earth, far and magnificent.

"Is this the most beautiful scenery in the 18th city?" Qing Chen asked.

"The Eternal Building is built on top of six buildings, and it has its current height and beauty based on those six buildings. If you don't consider the graffiti, urine stains, sewage, and crime on the ground floor, then this is the most beautiful scenery. ," Li Shutong said: "Today I will show you the most beautiful. If there is a chance, I can show you the ugliest side of this city."

As he said, Li Shutong pointed to the side: "There are telescopes beside the windows, which are specially used for diners to enjoy the scenery. You can take a look."

Qing Chen walked to the binoculars.

He saw the endless stream of vehicles on the ground and the frolicking crowd.

Some people are graffiti with strange but trendy paintings on the walls, and the white smoke of the barbecue restaurant and the wine flags of the izakaya are waving in the wind.

Suddenly, he saw two black helicopters slowly descending on the plaza platform downstairs, and more than 20 combat crew members jumped out of the cabin, rushing into the Eternal Building in a tactical formation.

There are also two mechanical dogs running fast beside them.

These people were armed with live ammunition, carrying weapons that Qing Chen could not name.

Obviously it came from Uncle Li.

Qing Chen looked back at Li Shutong, but the teacher smiled calmly: "Eat first."

"Well," Qing Chen ate the noodles seriously.

Now Li Shutong was interested: "Aren't you afraid?"

"The teacher took a student out to see the scenery for the first time, so he wouldn't let the student die halfway, otherwise the teacher would be too incompetent," Qing Chen said naturally.

Li Shutong's hearty laughter swayed outward.

He really liked Qing Chen more and more.

At this moment, the more than 20 combat team members in the building were divided into two teams. One team took the elevator to climb to the 87th floor, while the other team entered the safe escape route and searched upwards on foot.

Outside the Eternal Building, two Black Kite-01 armed helicopters once again pulled up towards the sky.

They slowly hovered around the 70th floor of the Eternal Building, ready to provide heavy fire support at any time.

In a temporary military base farther away, more than a dozen armed helicopters and floating boats have just taken off.

Farther away, Qing's "Land Cruise" giant floating boat began to load new solid fuel tanks amidst the busy logistics staff.

All this is like a net, gradually tightening.

At the moment when the big network was tightening, in the communication channel, the squad leader of the combat team calmly said: "Stop, check the charging status of their respective mechanical limbs on the spot, and give me feedback."

After speaking, he signaled that all members of the tactical team entered a silent state in the stairs of the safe passage, and briefly shut down all communication systems.

After he was sure that the voice would not return to the headquarters, he said calmly: "Boss Chen explained that if you want to leave here alive tonight, don't shoot. Remember, don't drag others down."

"Squad leader, I didn't understand," a combat team member was taken aback for a moment.

The team leader said: "You will understand in the future, repeat, do not shoot, repeat, do not shoot."

But before they could reconnect the communication equipment, a black shadow fell silently between them on the stairs.

Fierce and powerful.
