Across Deep Space: Four Men and a Play

Chapter 40: Receiving and following.

The next day, Xia Jiumeng got up early, packed up briefly, and took Xiaoqi out to the ant nest.

Qi Yu was going to pick her up in the afternoon, but she didn't want to be discovered by Qi Yu, so she changed the transaction time to the morning.

The ant nest is open 24 hours a day, but there are not many people there during the day.

When we arrived at the ant nest, a young man dressed as a waiter came to greet us.

"Hello, there is no entertainment during the day."

Xia Jiumeng threw him a red envelope and said, "Get the goods."

The waiter happily accepted the red envelope, nodded, and led her to an elevator at the corner.

"Ma'am, this way please."

Xia Jiumeng followed him and took the elevator to the third floor below ground.

When the elevator door opened, there was a long and narrow corridor with silver metal walls on both sides.

She followed the waiter all the way to a circular gate and stopped.

"Ma'am, we are no longer responsible for the safety of the items once they are taken out. Please keep them properly."

Seeing her nod, the waiter started operating the electronic screen on the left side of the door.

"Click."

The dull sound of gears turning was heard, and the metal door slowly opened from the middle to both sides.

"The waiter made a gesture to invite Xia Jiumeng to go on her own."

Not long after, Xia Jiumeng came out carrying a heavy box.

The Persian cat with white heterochromia eyes followed her gracefully and left with her in the elevator.

Not long after leaving the ant nest, Xia Jiumeng felt a strange sense of being watched.

When passing by a dark alley, he went straight in.

The person following her thought she was trying to get rid of him and quickly followed her without thinking.

"Fuck, where are the people?"

The man cursed as he looked at the empty alley.

He was originally a middleman wandering around the ant nest. He fell asleep nearby after drinking too much yesterday. When he woke up and was about to leave, he saw a young girl holding a cat entering the ant nest during the day. He immediately smelled the scent of making a fortune.

You should know that 80% of the people who go to the ant nest during the day are there to pick up goods, and they all come with a group of people.

It was the first time he saw someone going there alone.

Is she really not afraid of being robbed by villains?

However, he still followed her carefully all the way, but he didn't expect her to suddenly speed up and enter the alley.

Worried that the person would run away, he hurried to catch up, but it was too late.

"Damn it, it was all in vain."

The duck that was about to be in his mouth flew away, and he was so angry that he punched the wall hard.

"Are you looking for me?"

Xia Jiumeng's voice came from behind the man.

The man was startled and couldn't help but take a few steps back when he saw the girl suddenly appear, with his back against the wall.

"You...how come you are behind me?" He had just seen her go in with his own eyes!

Xia Jiumeng tilted her head and said, "Guess."

"What are you following me for?"

She was too lazy to waste time with the man and asked directly. She had to hurry back to wait for Qi Yu to pick her up.

The man swallowed and said, "Who, who followed you? I was just passing by."

"is it?"

She pointed at the wall behind the man. "Go down a dead end?"

The man was shocked. People in their line of work have to be careful every day. He thought that the only girl would be easy to bully, but he didn't expect that she was scheming.

But so what? What can she do when she's alone with a cat and no weapons?

Now that he's been exposed, he simply stops pretending.

He pulled out a gun from his waist, pointed it at Xia Jiumeng and said, "Hand over the box in your hand!"

"Hey, open robbery?"

Xia Jiumeng looked at the gun in front of her without any fear, but just shook her head with some regret.

If he didn't take out his gun, maybe she would consider letting him go.

The man didn't understand what she meant by shaking her head, but just said in a stern voice, "Hand it over quickly, don't play tricks on me!"

"Okay, I'll give it to you, but you..." are you still alive to take it?

The man watched Xia Jiumeng hand over the box under his threat, and immediately stretched out his empty hand to take the box when a white shadow flashed before his eyes.

The man felt a chill in his throat, and when he opened his mouth to say something, he could only spit out a mouthful of blood.

"you....."

"boom."

The man fell straight to the ground with his eyes wide open.

"idiot."

Xia Jiumeng looked at the man lying in a pool of blood and sneered coldly.

Next to the man sat a beautiful white cat, gracefully wiping its blood-stained claws clean on him.

【Master, do you want to clean up? 】

Xiao Qi's cold voice sounded.

How could anyone who could survive in such an environment as her be a really good person? He was just being kind in front of her.

"Clean it up."

So as to avoid being discovered and causing unnecessary trouble.

Xia Jiumeng watched as the blue flame leaped out from Xiao Qi's claws and instantly burned the man to ashes.

She brought Xiaoqi with her when she went out today because she knew that someone would definitely watch her if she came to pick up something.

It would be best if we could get back safely, but if not, it would be a good opportunity to test the power of Xiaoqi's transformed body.

[Master, this temperature is still a little hard to control.]

Xiaoqi clasped his paws together and said that he wanted to leave some dust for him, but he used too much force.

"The materials are limited, so make do with this. I'll exchange it for something better later."

Xia Jiumeng picked up the box again and left with Xiaoqi in her arms. The moment she walked out of the alley, the cameras on the street flashed at the same time.

*

After returning home, Xia Jiumeng took out all the small cubes from the box.

There is a special energy plant in each small cube, but too many will cause special energy disorder and lead to the appearance of wandering bodies, so they are all placed in special boxes.

[Xiao Qi, turn on the energy stabilizer.]

That stabilizer was an improvement on the special energy stabilizer provided by the decoration company.

She would often come into contact with these strange things in this house in the future, and the energy stabilizer was very important, so she modified that first.

[Good master. 】

A slight buzzing sound was heard, and the fluctuating energy in the workshop caused by the opening of the box disappeared instantly.

After taking out all the contents from the boxes, there were more than forty boxes of various sizes.

"This box is not big, but it can hold a lot of things."

Xia Jiumeng began to open the boxes one by one, took out the special energy plants inside, and then took out a part of the samples one by one and put them into the analyzer to analyze the components.

With Xiaoqi's assistance, the work was completed quickly.

But an hour is basically enough.

The analyzer is not large and can only analyze dozens of samples at a time.

[Master, these materials only increase the contrast by 14 percent.]

It's very troublesome. We can't even get the most basic genetic medicine.

"Project the data comparison so I can see it."

Xia Jiumeng dropped the tweezers in her hand and looked at the data comparison elements projected in front of her, then raised her hand to move and piece them together.

In the end, the formulas for three different versions of primary genetic medicine were pieced together.

"Record the ratio of the three material elements."

[Good master. 】

Xia Jiumeng took off her gloves, got up and left the workshop, poured a cup of coffee in the living room, walked to the small swing on the balcony and sat down to enjoy the afternoon sun.

Xiao Qi knew that her master might not be in a good mood at the moment, so she squatted quietly at her feet to keep her company.
