Sitting in the minibus, Jiang Liushi called his sister … although he knew that the call would be like a stone sinking in the sea.
Before Starseed appeared in his mind, his sister had already gone to the depths of the mountains to do some research. The signal was intermittent.
His sister was in the depths of the mountains, and at the moment when doomsday was about to break out, it was the worst news.
But Jiang Liushi knew through Starseed that his sister and himself would not be infected by the virus.
His sister's investigation should be over in two days, which made Jiang Liushi particularly happy. He and his sister could be said to be dependent on each other. If doomsday came and his sister was still in some ravine, Jiang Liushi would go crazy.
Sure enough, when he called the other side, it was also in a state of shutdown. Jiang Liushi sent a text message to his sister, asking her to contact him as soon as she saw the message. He would wait for her call 24 hours a day. Based on his understanding of his sister, she would definitely call back as soon as she got to a place with a signal, given how careful he was with his words.
"Boss, do you want to stop here?" The driver of the rental company drove to Jiang Liushi's house and looked around curiously. It was an old community that had almost been eliminated in Jiangbei Town. The houses were old houses from the 1990s, and every household had the most old-fashioned canopies and anti-theft fences.
It was really not like a place where a rich second generation lived. Was it a place to experience life? But it was none of the driver's business. After Jiang Liushi signed, the driver handed the key to him and left.
Jiang Liushi sat in the car and took a deep breath. Today, he had made all kinds of preparations, but now everything was ready, he did not feel calm. Instead, he had a feeling of trepidation. His previous calmness, order, and suppressed panic seemed to have exploded at this moment.
After sitting in the seat for five or six minutes, Jiang Liushi slowly recovered. After all, doomsday was coming! It was normal for him to have such a reaction.
According to the information given by Starseed, Jiang Liushi stood up, walked to the driver's seat, and then sat down, holding the steering wheel with both hands.
Then, Jiang Liushi closed his eyes. It was as if a switch had been opened, and in Jiang Liushi's mind, a picture that his eyes should have seen appeared.
Holding the steering wheel with both hands, he "looked" left and right, and his field of vision quickly zoomed in, taking in the entire car. Then, the car became transparent, and all the parts could be seen clearly.
Jiang Liushi knew that Starseed was scanning him. However, Jiang Liushi still felt very magical when he experienced it personally. It was like a VR science fiction experience.
When VR came out, Jiang Liushi was very interested in it, but he didn't buy it because it was too expensive. Now he had a more advanced experience than VR.
After the whole minibus was scanned, the vehicle's information also appeared in Jiang Liushi's mind.
Model: Medium passenger bus (14 seats)
Age: 10 years.
Power: Gasoline powered.
Highest speed: 110km/h.
Engine: 5.014L water-cooled inline four-cylinder turbocharged direct injection type.
Malfunction: The engine is old, and the parts are old.
In summary, it was a very ordinary minibus. It was estimated that it had been retired from traveling, and then it was bought by a car rental company. In fact, as long as such a car was driven, it would have a lot of small problems. The car rental company was completely deceiving people.
However, Jiang Liushi didn't care about these minor problems. He had spent more than 10,000 yuan to get a minibus, which was a very good deal.
After completing the first modification, the minibus would be initially adapted to the doomsday use.
There were several ways to modify "Starseed". Jiang Liushi thought about it and chose the "MCV" type. The MCV was actually a more material choice, but it was the most practical.
Soon, Starseed listed the materials needed to modify the minibus into a MCV (ordinary). Seeing the list of materials, Jiang Liushi secretly smacked his lips.
Steel X 100 pounds, copper X 100 pounds, screws of different specifications, titanium alloy 10 kilograms, leather 10 square feet, and all kinds of strange materials. Just the first few items, Jiang Liushi knew that it was not a small number. He vaguely knew that one kilogram of titanium alloy was about five or six hundred yuan, and some of those strange materials were also very expensive.
The list of materials was completely beyond Jiang Liushi's expectations.
The number of materials needed was beyond Jiang Liushi's imagination. It might be because he had chosen a more complex MCV.
He didn't know whether the rest of the money, as well as the money from various sales, would be enough.
Although the roadside was full of "One minute transfer, ID card to borrow money", Jiang Liushi's student ID card was given to Ma Hao, and his ID card was given to the car rental company. He didn't have any property certificate, so he was really at a loss.
"Forget it, I should first order what I can buy..." Jiang Liushi took out his mobile phone.
As soon as he turned on his mobile phone, Jiang Liushi found that he had two missed calls. He looked at the time. Maybe he was on the road, so he didn't hear the calls.
But looking at the phone number, he didn't know...
"Hello?" Jiang Liushi called back.
"Jiang Liushi?" A girl's voice came from the phone, sounding very sweet and very gentle.
"I am. I saw that you called me. What's the matter? "Jiang Liushi asked.
"I'm Li Yuxin." The girl said a name that surprised Jiang Liushi.
He had thought that it was a business call, either from the car rental company or from some express delivery company, or from the seller of the goods he had ordered.
But he didn't expect that it was really a girl he knew, and a very popular girl... Although Jiang Liushi rarely communicated with girls on the phone, he didn't panic when he received a call.
He just felt very strange. He didn't have any intersection with Li Yuxin, so why would she call him?
Of course, to be exact, it was not that they didn't have any intersection at all. In fact, they had been classmates since high school, and they were deskmates.
Li Yuxin's family conditions were very good. She was also beautiful and had a good character, so she was very popular in the class. At that time, Jiang Liushi also looked at Li Yuxin staring out of the window, her beautiful hair gently flying in the air.
Although Li Yuxin was very good in all aspects, she had a headache when it came to mathematics. Jiang Liushi happened to be very good at mathematics. Li Yuxin often asked Jiang Liushi to help her solve problems.
When listening to the class, Li Yuxin was very serious and focused, so that her hair often fell on Jiang Liushi's hands, but she didn't notice it.
But later, Jiang Liushi's parents had an accident, so he didn't go to class for a whole month. When he went again, Jiang Liushi became a lot more introverted, sitting alone in the last row.
Although Li Yuxin looked at him from time to time, several times they passed each other, Li Yuxin wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say it.
Of course, Jiang Liushi had now walked out of the shadow of that time, but the relationship between them had since become indifferent. Even if they were admitted to the same university in the same city, it was still the same. At that time, Jiang Liushi had also hidden the little throbbing in his heart.
Now, hearing Li Yuxin's voice, Jiang Liushi's mood was actually uncontrollably a little bit. Li Yuxin's voice was also like a wisp of breeze, light and light.
"It's been … a long time." Jiang Liushi could not help but sigh.
Li Yuxin also said, "Yes, we haven't been in contact for a long time."
"Oh, why are you looking for me?" Jiang Liushi asked.
"I heard from Li Jun that you are very short of money now? I am not familiar with him, but I happened to hear him talking to a friend of mine, "Li Yuxin said.
Jiang Liushi suddenly frowned, "What did he say?"
"He invited my friend to dinner, and my friend asked him why he was looking at his mobile phone and who he was chatting with. He said that you were asking him to borrow money. I thought you might have some difficulties, so I asked for your mobile phone number … "Li Yuxin said calmly.
"This Li Jun …" Jiang Liushi was also speechless. Li Jun didn't want to pay him back, but also talked about him like that.
"It's like this …" Jiang Liushi explained the truth.
After listening, Li Yuxin was also very angry, "I know you are not that kind of person. He also said that you are shameless … This kind of person, I quickly told my friend not to contact him. Oh, you are really short of money, right? "
"It's okay, I have already thought of a way …" Jiang Liushi said.
"Your Alipay is your mobile phone number, right? I will transfer you a sum of money, and you can pay me back when you have enough money. We are friends, so you don't need to be polite with me. You used to teach me every day, and you were so careful that you didn't even have a little spare time. I didn't thank you, right? "Li Yuxin smiled.
Jiang Liushi was stunned. Li Yuxin's laughter was still so pleasant to hear …
"Wait, no need …"
"That's all. You don't need to be polite. We are friends, right?" Li Yuxin said with a chuckle, and her laughter was as clear as a wind chime.
"Of course." Putting down the phone, Jiang Liushi felt warm.
He didn't expect that at this moment, an unexpected person would help him. Moreover, from beginning to end, Li Yuxin didn't ask why he wanted to borrow money.
[Di!] When Jiang Liushi opened it, he was stunned again. Li Yuxin had transferred a total of 20,000 yuan.
She also left a message, "A little more is more. Anyway, if you can't use it up, you can keep it and pay me back." At the end, there was a cute smiling emoji.
Jiang Liushi looked at that message and felt really touched. Although Li Yuxin's family was rich, she usually lived a very simple life. That 20,000 yuan must be her own private money, it was not as simple as casually giving it to Jiang Liushi.
But as soon as she heard that he was in trouble, she immediately took the initiative to call him. Seeing that he didn't answer, she called him several times in a row …
Jiang Liushi suddenly made up his mind. He immediately called her again. He didn't expect that when the phone was picked up, Li Yuxin's tone was a bit perturbed, "What are you doing?"
"..." Jiang Liushi could not help but feel moved and funny, "Don't worry, I'm not here to refund the money."
"Oh …" Li Yuxin suddenly felt relieved, and quickly said, "You don't need to thank me. If you thank me, I should thank you for helping me before. Without you, how could I be admitted to Jiangbei University …"
"That's a small matter." Jiang Liushi scratched his head with some embarrassment, then coughed, and then said very seriously, "Give me your home address."
"Address? Why? You still want to pay me back? "Li Yuxin laughed.
"Don't worry, just tell me. Don't worry, I won't do anything bad. "Jiang Liushi deliberately joked.
"Well, my home address is..."
"Tell me, I'll write it down." Jiang Liushi turned on the speakerphone, and then wrote down Li Yuxin's home address with a memo.
"You even specifically wrote it down? I'm a little nervous. Do you really want to come? But if you come as a guest, I will certainly welcome you. "Li Yuxin said.
She was a little embarrassed. Jiang Liushi knew that his request was too abrupt, but he couldn't care less about it. Although it was a little abrupt, it was necessary.
Jiang Liushi said, "Yuxin, next Tuesday, you must wait for me at home. Not only you, but also your parents. You must stay at home and don't go anywhere. It's best if you can separate into different rooms. Each room has a lock. In case of an accident, lock yourselves in the door and go somewhere else. I will come to find you. Is that okay? I have a very important, very important thing to do! It's related to my life! "
His tone was very firm and very serious.
Jiang Liushi knew that if he said doomsday, it would be difficult for Li Yuxin to believe him. Even if he could make Li Yuxin skeptical, she still needed to convince her parents … It would take a lot of time.
If he said it was related to their lives, Li Yuxin would certainly not believe it, and it would be more difficult to convince her parents. Her parents might even suspect that he was crazy and had some ulterior motives.
"Lock yourselves in a locked room?" Li Yuxin was stunned. Did someone want to attack them?
"Jiang Liushi, do you have any big difficulties? Is it because of usury, gangsters or something …" Li Yuxin asked in a panic.
"No, but it's really very important! You must believe me, definitely, definitely! This matter is very important. Please! "Jiang Liushi said.
He had borrowed usury, but it had nothing to do with that … He was not worried at all.
"This … I … okay … okay …" Li Yuxin reluctantly agreed. It sounded really bizarre.
"Of course, do as I say!" Jiang Liushi said again.
"This …"
"Promise me!" Jiang Liushi said very sincerely.
"Okay, okay …"
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Liushi breathed a sigh of relief. He had tried his best, but he didn't know how far Li Yuxin could go.
But at least, she should stay at home. She was a very kind-hearted person. As long as she cared about his safety, she would listen to him and stay at home.
As for whether Li Yuxin could survive or not, it could only depend on God's will.
He hoped that God would not let such a kind girl die in this catastrophe.
