With the return of the expedition team, the Fishbone base returned to its usual liveliness. The construction of the base was also back on track. The construction team transported batches of construction materials out of the wall and carried out the expansion work according to the previous plan.
The women rescued from the basement of the Huizhong Mercenaries were placed in an empty apartment building. Jiang Chen arranged for five nurses to take care of them and try to help them regain their sanity. At the same time, the survivors in the base could spend points to adopt the person they liked.
In principle, the Fishbone base encouraged the adopters to take responsibility and give points to the person who restored the person to normal and participated in the work.
The trading point in front of the wall was reopened due to the end of the zombie wave. After this incident, there would be an endless stream of survivors coming to trade. The relationship between the Fishbone base and the nearby survivor groups would be further strengthened.
The bullet production line and the hummingbird drone production line were placed in a simple metal room. After some simple maintenance, the two production lines could be put into production. Therefore, the Fishbone base had its first military factory. Although the production efficiency was not high, it was a good start.
After Jiang Chen ordered Lu Huasheng to plan a building in the newly developed area as the new location for the military factory, he walked in the direction of the mansion.
The terminal of the drone could be made from recycled electronic parts. Yaoyao was an expert in this area, so it should be no problem for her to complete it. Also, he could make a drone warning system to increase the base's defense and detection capabilities.
But the moment he opened the door, he was stunned.
"Do you know who I am?" Lin Lin raised her eyebrows, placed her hands on her hips, and raised her head proudly.
"You, you are?" Yaoyao gulped, her head shrunk, and carefully asked.
"Me? I am the noble, perfect, and the crystallization of technology – digitalized human! "Lin Lin smiled proudly. She was satisfied with the timid expression on Yaoyao's face.
At this moment, Lin Lin was in an extremely good mood. There was only one thought in her mind: this is awesome! The feeling of bullying the weak was so wonderful. Hahaha!
However, this joy didn't last long, because she saw Jiang Chen standing at the door and looking at her with a half-smile.
The corner of Lin Lin's mouth twitched as her proud expression froze on her face.
When Yaoyao saw Jiang Chen, as if she found her savior, she quickly hid behind him and pouted.
"Digitalized human? And then? "Jiang Chen smiled at the silver-haired beauty.
"I, I …" Lin Lin's mouth trembled as she recalled her fear of this "devil."
"Where's Sun Jiao?" Jiang Chen turned around and rubbed Yao Yao's head.
"Sister Sun Jiao went to take a shower," Yao Yao whispered.
Then, she looked in Lin Lin's direction, pouted, and continued, "Sister Sun Jiao asked me to find her a room, but as soon as Sister Sun Jiao left, she used it, she …"
"You bullied my Yaoyao?"
This was simply intolerable! Especially when he saw Yaoyao's timid expression, his desire to protect her exploded.
"What, what are you doing?" Lin Lin shivered and began to retreat.
Her silver hair trembled, and her fair face was filled with fear. Although her face was indescribably beautiful, her vile personality would only arouse people's desire to torture her, not to protect her.
Without hesitation, Jiang Chen took out his EP and pressed a few buttons.
A faint electric noise came from Yaoyao's neck, and the electronic collar was opened.
Without hesitation, Jiang Chen snatched Yaoyao's collar and approached Lin Lin with a smirk. He ignored her struggling fists and forcefully put the electronic collar on her neck.
Yaoyao touched her neck, and a wronged expression appeared on her face. It was the bond between her and Brother Jiang Chen, but it was taken away by this strange woman.
The more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt.
Her big, cute eyes began to be filled with tears of grievance.
"Uh, no, that's too dangerous. I wanted to take it off a long time ago. How about I give you a new gift?" Jiang Chen saw the situation and immediately comforted Yaoyao.
"Hey! If it's dangerous, why did you put it on me! "Lin Lin protested.
"Who cares about you!" Jiang Chen turned around and gave her a dirty look. Lin Lin was so scared that she retreated again.
Yaoyao looked back and forth between the two of them, and her cherry lips pouted again.
She had a bad feeling that there were more and more opponents.
…
After forcing the noisy Lin Lin to "submit," Jiang Chen took her to the office on the first floor.
Although it was the office, there were no books left. The bookshelves were thrown to the empty space in the backyard as waste. The place was now filled with the experimental equipment Lin Lin brought out from the fallout shelter.
"Ahh-! How could you treat my baby like this. "Lin Lin ran up with tears in her eyes and touched the precious equipment.
"This will be your room from now on. You can pack your stuff." Jiang Chen had a wicked smile as he said without hesitation.
In all honesty, he had always been a good person.
But for some reason, Lin Lin seemed to have a natural "come and bully me" buff. Her favorite thing to do was to "overestimate herself and provoke others."
"Humph." Lin Lin gave Jiang Chen a hateful look and then straightened the equipment on the ground.
"So that's how it was placed. I thought it was the ground."
"Humph, stupid." Lin Lin cursed in a quiet voice and didn't look at Jiang Chen anymore.
"I put the bodies of the mutated human and the Death Claw in the freezer. Your current mission is to help me dissect and analyze those two things. I need to know what the X2 bacteria is and what special effects it will have on mutants. And the body function data of the mutated human. This shouldn't be difficult for you. "
Lin Lin heard this and turned her head proudly. Her long silver hair fluttered to the side. "Humph, why should I help you-"
"If you don't need to eat, you don't need to help me." Jiang Chen interrupted Lin Lin with a smile.
"You! You … "Lin Lin's expression instantly turned wronged. But other than making Jiang Chen feel happy, there was no sense of guilt.
[Who asked you to have such a bad temper!]
"The mission is yours. If there's nothing else, I'm leaving. Also, you better treat Yao Yao better because she's responsible for your food. "Jiang Chen laughed and walked out the door.
"Wait!" Lin Lin immediately stopped Jiang Chen.
"What? If you're protesting, it's invalid. "Jiang Chen turned around and looked at her as he said without hesitation.
"What about my bedroom? Just to be clear, I want the top floor. It's best if it has a single bathroom, and it has to face the south … "Lin Lin was a bit reserved at first, but the more she spoke, the more excited she became. Her black gem-like eyes flashed with hope.
But Jiang Chen looked at her speechlessly with an indescribably strange expression.
As if she realized she was talking to herself, Lin Lin carefully looked at Jiang Chen. She began to accept the reality that she had to "submit" to him.
Lin Lin thought: [Humph, a wise man knows better than to fight when the odds are against him!] [I'll bear with you for now, wait until … Humph.]
Although she didn't know how long that would take.
"Can I?" Lin Lin asked in a quiet voice.
Jiang Chen was silent for a moment before he suddenly asked a question that lacked common sense.
"Do digitalized humans need to sleep?"
"Of course! I'm not a robot. "Lin Lin was on the verge of tears as she said with a mental breakdown.
After her explanation, Jiang Chen finally understood what kind of existence she was.
Simply put, she used to be a normal person, but because of a congenital disease, 40% of her body's tissues were replaced by machines. Her brain was equipped with neurological nano-components that allowed her to achieve computer-level computing speed with the help of the human brain. The artificial stomach allowed her to use food at twice the efficiency of ordinary people and convert part of the energy into electricity for storage and use.
As for the needs of eating and sleeping, she was no different from an ordinary person.
"So you're not a robot." Jiang Chen examined Lin Lin from top to bottom. Because he once slept with a robot at the Sixth Street, he had always thought of her as a robot. "I thought the outside of you was made of silicone."
"You're the one made of silicone!" Lin Lin gave Jiang Chen a vicious stare, but when she remembered that she still needed his help, her expression softened and she used a weak tone, "Um, room …"
"Room? Isn't it right here? "Jiang Chen looked at her with a strange expression.
"What?! Here? You want me to sleep with a bunch of lab equipment? "Lin Lin jumped up like a squirrel whose tail was stepped on.
"Why else do you think I gave you such a big room? I'll bring a bed for you later. "Jiang Chen rolled his eyes.
Jiang Chen ignored Lin Lin's depressed expression that was about to cry and left the room.
The reason why he bullied her was partly because Jiang Chen wanted to do it from the bottom of his heart, and partly because he had to teach this girl a lesson.
It was not that the mansion didn't have empty rooms, but Lin Lin's temper was too horrible. If he treated her better, her jaw would immediately fly to the sky.
He couldn't spoil her, he had to teach her a lesson.
…
Jiang Chen came to the kitchen and found Yaoyao cooking dinner.
With a pink apron tied around her chest and a long spoon in her right hand, Yaoyao was focused on the stew in the pot. Her cherry lips hummed a soft tune, and her innocent face was filled with a happy smile that sparkled under the light of dusk.
Ahhhh, she's so cute.
Jiang Chen subconsciously covered his nose, although it wasn't bleeding.
Yaoyao's ears moved cutely when she heard the noise at the door. She turned around and looked at the door.
"Hmm? Brother, are you done with your work? Wait a little longer, the food will be ready soon. " When she realized it was Jiang Chen, Yaoyao's face began to turn red. Then she turned around and continued to stare at the food in the pot.
"Ahem, uh, done. Also, cook one more meal in the future. Sorry for troubling you. "Jiang Chen walked up and rubbed Yaoyao's head lovingly.
"Hehe, mhmm! I've already made an extra ~ "Yao Yao rubbed her head against the top of her head, enjoying the feeling of the big hand rubbing her head.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen smiled.
As expected, Yaoyao was a kind child.
Even if Lin Lin "bullied" her as soon as she arrived, she still considerately considered Lin Lin's meals.
"Also, what does Yaoyao want as a gift?" Although he didn't know why Yaoyao was so obsessed with the dangerous electronic collar, Jiang Chen still put it on Lin Lin who "needed it more."
Yaoyao's face began to heat up as she whispered after a while.
"Can I save it first?"
"Save it?" Jiang Chen was confused.
"Yaoyao's birthday is in November, so … can you give it to me then?" With her head buried, Yaoyao's voice became softer and softer.
Birthday?
"Mhmm!" Jiang Chen smiled and nodded.
