Chapter 51: Controlling the Seniors
Having witnessed the metamorphosis mutants with his own eyes, and unexpectedly witnessed Ye Xiaojing eating, Jiang Qian once again updated his understanding of the super-species population.
On the way home, he was reviewing and thinking.
First of all, about the mutants.
In the three days before the quarantine was lifted, Lan Junxian gave him the basic concepts and survival rules of the super-species world, among which the mutants were a key part.
The mutants are the opposite of the license holders, and they are often caused by: imbalance of energy structure, mental illness, and excessive evil deeds.
Although they are not completely hostile, there are great differences in the way they absorb energy and maintain balance.
Normal license holders complete the vertical transformation and upgrade of energy structure through evolutionary copies; while the vertical energy structure of the mutants is locked, and over time, energy will slowly drain from the collapsed structure.
Therefore, they must constantly replenish their energy structure by preying on license holders with normal energy structures to achieve temporary stability and balance.
Mutants will also enter copies, but their reward mechanism is different from that of normal license holders. And they will hunt down normal license holders whenever they have the chance. As a result, the danger level of multiplayer copies is exponentially higher than that of single-player copies.
And the most terrifying thing is: not all mutants are as easy to identify as today's metamorphosis mutants.
Most mutants look no different from normal license holders.
Just like Jiang Qian, who is obviously an emotionally disabled person, but can thrive in normal human society.
It would be even more troublesome if she was like the peacock spider. She can "disguise herself" and there is no photo of her in the official system.
"By the way, are the results of the peacock spider's gene restoration out? Should I call Teacher Lan to ask..."
Jiang Qian hesitated for a moment, but chose to give up.
For such an important matter, Lan Junxian would inform him as soon as there was news.
If the results are consistent with the initial conclusion, then Ye Xiaojing will also leave Jinping and return to Donghai. Following Lan Junxian, she will probably not have the opportunity to "indulge in food"... Jiang Qian couldn't help thinking.
Following this line of thought, he began to consider whether to raise a snake in advance?
Yu Xuan's room seemed to have a glass tank as a gift... Isn't she interested in reptiles? It doesn't matter if she keeps one or a group of reptiles.
It's better if they are poisonous.
Otherwise, with his current desire for toxins, he is worried that the second and third states will not be able to withstand the restlessness of primitive desires.
If he doesn't plan ahead, he can imagine what kind of bad news will come out of Jinping Zoo at that time:
"Jinping Zoo was bloodbathed by poachers overnight! Countless poisonous creatures died, and their bodies were almost drained, without even a drop of venom left! Is this a distortion of human nature or a loss of morality?"
While lingering in his imagination, the taxi stopped.
Jiang Qian paid and got off.
Just as he was about to walk to the community, Xiao Xuebai called.
Jiang Qian picked up the phone and said, "Hello?"
"It's me, Xuebai... Jiang Qian, are you home?" Xiao Xuebai on the other side sounded a little nervous.
"We're here, don't worry."
"I'm really sorry for getting you involved in today's matter, and thank you. I will listen to your advice and report the matter to my superiors truthfully." A serious and cautious voice came from the other side, "How is your injury?"
The obvious throbbing and warm concern made Jiang Qian inevitably feel a little sympathetic: "It's up to you to decide, I'm fine."
"Well, then you have a good rest."
"Got it, see you tomorrow!"
"See you tomorrow~"
When Jiang Qian returned home, dinner was over and his aunt was cleaning up the dishes in the kitchen.
Seeing Jiang Qian coming back, she smiled and greeted him: "Sure, you took the initiative to work overtime on the first day of internship! Did the leader praise you for your ability?"
No, the leader rushed off work every day, and I couldn't compare to him at all... Jiang Qian smiled: "Of course, the leader praised my work attitude and praised me as the future of the company and the hope of the department."
"Hahaha, just brag~" The child at home is promising, and the aunt looks very happy.
Jiang Qian quickly returned to the room to change the torn clothes inside, took a shower, and then went to the study to greet the old lady.
The lights in the study were bright at this time. Teacher Tang was wearing a reading goggles, holding a newspaper in his hand, and dozing off on a recliner.
Jiang Qian took a piece of clothing from the hanger and covered the old man's shoulders.
He sat next to him and waited for a while.
The old lady in front of him was strong, stubborn, and even a little self-righteous, but she spent her whole life to unite this family tightly.
Even if this family only had... these few people left, at least they were tightly united.
Even if there was an "outlier" in the family.
He looked at his grandmother's silver eyelashes trembling gently in her sleep, and many past events emerged in his mind when he was diagnosed with emotional disorders many years ago.
To some extent, Yu Xuan was right. At that time, the family was about to be unable to protect him.
The old Buddha taught his whole life with integrity. Such a proud man, at an old age, had to go to the homes of school leaders to ask for help and apologize to students' parents. He didn't care about these things for a long time.
He chose to learn to be a normal person out of consideration for his own interests.
But after experiencing the metamorphosis today, he really took the initiative to stand from the perspective of his family to consider the gains and losses at the time. He found that he was not smart enough but lucky enough: although his family was incomplete, the family affection was full and the trust was solid.
After staying for a while, the old Buddha, who had squinted, slowly opened his eyes and saw his grandson coming back. He happily asked about his adaptation in the company.
He also told him not to work too hard, to find a reliable girlfriend, and to fall in love early...
After coming out of the study, Jiang Qian went to his sister's room again.
There was a desk lamp on in the room.
The golden lampshade dyed the whole bedroom into a warm and cozy warm color.
Yu Xuan, wearing a silk long-sleeved slanted-collar nightgown, leaned against the head of the bed, resting her head on a big and soft pillow, wrapped in a quilt and fell asleep.
She had an open laptop next to her, and her face was not made up, but she had already removed her makeup.
Jiang Qian first fed the little guys in the glass tank one by one.
Then he picked up the empty glass tank sent by the store from the corner of the cabinet, measured it in his hand, and roughly estimated the size of the next resident.
Finally, he came to the bed and leaned over to look at his sleeping sister.
When she was made up, she was beautiful and delicate, and her proud aura was aggressive; when she was made up, she looked several years younger than her actual age, and her face was more delicate and soft, and she looked peaceful and defenseless when she was asleep.
Jiang Qian reached out to cover the black computer screen and put it on the bedside table.
He turned off the desk lamp and left his sister's room.
In the bedroom, Yu Xuan slowly opened his eyes.
After a while of silence in the silent room, he turned over, pulled out the pillow leaning against his back, hugged it in his arms, and fell asleep.
…
The next day, Jiang Qian followed the department culture and arrived at the company on time.
Unfortunately, more than half of the people in the security department did not show up.
It was too early.
Then Jiang Qian nodded and greeted his colleagues along the way, just like he did when he first arrived yesterday, and came to his workstation.
When his eyes met Xiao Xuebai, he saw some kind of hot emotion in the other's eyes.
…A bad premonition.
Then Xiao Xuebai hurriedly got up from his workstation and handed a cup of coffee to the intern's desk.
With a warm and flattering face: "Jiang Qian, when are you free today? I'll tell you about the work arrangements?"
Even the address was changed from "Xiao Jiang classmate" to "Jiang Qian's real name".
Colleagues in adjacent seats also noticed the movement here, and looked sideways, showing honest and gossipy expressions: What? Is Xiao Xuebai reporting to the intern? Isn't this the trick she usually uses to deal with Captain Xiong Er... Ah, tone?
What is the background of this intern? He was not successfully trained by the senior, but he straightened out the senior in one day? ?
At this time, Jiang Qian was also a little cautious: "Senior, you can arrange work at any time, no need to be so polite..."
"Ah polite? Do I have it?" Xiao Xuebai got nervous, and then quickly calmed down, "I'll change it now!"
Other colleagues: ? ? ?
Jiang Qian: ...
Then Jiang Qian quickly adapted to this new role.
——A young man with a big background, a little wolf dog who controls the senior!
In the company, Xiao Xuebai followed Jiang Qian obediently, welcoming and seeing off, she communicated with him about anything, and she came forward to do any work.
And Jiang Qian only needed to take notes and understand the personnel composition of the company's licensees. He didn't have to worry about other things at all.
When he had nothing to do in the afternoon, he could still fight with Ye Xiaojing in the gym.
This was probably the most physically demanding activity of the day.
Strangely, since he had witnessed Ye Xiaojing eating live food, every time he saw Ye Xiaojing chewing snacks, he would unconsciously think of the scene of a mantis eating... In other words, he was calm and ferocious.
The need to buy a venomous snake became stronger and stronger.
…
In this way, the school was handed over to Xue Yang to take over, and Jiang Qian spent a few days in the company leisurely and happily got a full week of attendance.
On Monday morning of the second week, Captain Xiong Er called him and Xiao Xuebai together alone, and announced to the two of them with a lazy look but a solemn expression: the case involving the metamorphosis mutants they handled had been concluded.
And, Ji Ming, the director of operations of the Jinping City Special Service Center, would visit the company the next day to meet with Jiang Qian alone.
