Volume Eight: Empty Mine

Chapter 4: Officer F and the Jupiter Mine

"You guys know each other?" Officer F saw the change in Long Jiao's face, and felt that something was wrong.

"Uh, we are colleagues. To be precise, Dr. Long is my senior." Gao Jian said it sincerely, like a student reporting work to a teacher.

"You can gossip on the road," Wang Zhijun seemed anxious, "Get on the spaceship first." Following his words, someone came over and led three people to board Mr. Wang's spaceship——Wuwei. A small private spaceship, just like other people's private jets on Earth, this spaceship has a small hull and only eight people, that is to say, apart from Police Officer F and Long Jiao, President Wang himself and Dr. Gao Jian, and four crew members, including two pilots, two service personnel, and the guides who took them aboard and arranged cabins and other necessary things for them left before the spacecraft took off.

"It seems that Mr. Wang is really a person who enjoys it." Looking at the bar of the restaurant at the tail of the spaceship and the rows of red wine behind it, Officer F said with emotion.

"Excuse me, what do you need?" A beautiful and generous waitress asked Police Officer F. She was probably in her early 20s, and there was even a little childishness on her cute face.

"Uh, no, I'm not hungry right now," Officer F felt a little embarrassed, like a countryman who just entered the city, "It's okay, I'll tell you if I need it."

"Okay, if you need anything, please tell me. I wish you a pleasant journey." The girl always had a smile on her face. Officer F felt that it would cost a lot of money to invite such a person. Thinking about his own pocket, he couldn't help but feel the difference. too big.

"Come here and have a drink," Wang Zhijun greeted. He had already taken a bottle of wine, finished a glass of wine for himself, and was pouring wine into the second glass. You will regret this."

"Okay," Officer F felt unable to refuse, so he had to sit opposite Wang Zhijun, "How long will it take us to get there?" Officer F didn't have much interest in alcohol, so he changed the subject.

"Wine is something that should be treasured properly. With enough years, the taste will naturally become more mellow." Wang Zhijun seemed to be immersed in his wine, "We will arrive in about a day."

"So fast?" Officer F is also the first time to do this kind of travel. Although he has no experience and doesn't have a strong concept of interstellar distance and time, he still thinks it is very fast.

"I'm lying to you, how can it be so fast," Wang Zhijun had already finished his drink, "actually it takes one day, one hour and 15 minutes."

Officer F didn't speak, he didn't expect the serious Mr. Wang to make such a joke.

"In fact, it can be faster, but that is the unmanned spaceship we are transporting goods. We humans cannot bear that speed due to our own physical reasons, so we can only arrive later." Wang Zhijun explained.

"As far as I know, the environment of Jupiter is not very suitable for a mine, why do you want to go there?" Officer F asked his own question.

"You are right. Jupiter has many special factors, such as too fast rotation speed for us, too strong magnetic field, and we can't even build a base on it. All our staff are operated by special spacecraft. In the combined space station, people will be sent down only when there is a need for mining.” Wang Zhijun explained the general situation of the Jupiter mine.

"Then why do we have to spend such a large cost on such a laborious thing?" Officer F felt that the mine must be of high value, otherwise how could a businessman make a loss-making business.

"Because of you, Officer F." Wang Zhijun's words made Officer F confused.

"Because of me?" Officer F felt very strange. He didn't know what Wang Zhijun meant. He had nothing to do with them. This time he was entrusted by a friend to help Wang Zhijun. If he wanted to talk about his relationship with Wang Zhijun, Without that person in the middle, he might not come back at all, so Wang Zhijun became more and more confused when it came to his relationship.

"May I ask, your arm and the left side of your body have been modified, right?" Wang Zhijun had already poured himself another glass of wine.

Officer F nodded his head, which was an answer to his question, but he was very surprised that not all the people in the police station knew about it. How could he, an outsider, know? Could it be that he revealed it to someone who still had a body? This is impossible, there is a confidentiality agreement between them.

"It's very strange why I know, right?" Wang Zhijun looked at the suspicious police officer F, took a sip of wine and continued, "I also know the reason why you transformed your body, because you were injured in an arrest, and it was very serious. Your left arm and most of your left body were almost destroyed. It was a miracle that you survived. But with the remaining half of your body, you will not be able to stay on the job, and it is even impossible to live alone, so you I accepted the body modification project, am I right?" Wang Zhijun said as he lit a cigarette for himself and handed another to Police Officer F.

Officer F took the cigarette, but didn't light it, but said slowly, "Why do you know this?"

"I know far more than that," Wang Zhijun puffed out his cigarette, motioned for the waiter to bring over an ashtray, then turned his face to Police Officer F and continued with a smile, "At first your body was transformed with titanium alloy. , you can do some basic movements, and also hide some basic attacks, but this is an outdated technology after all, and it is far from meeting your requirements, so you carried out a second transformation, this time in titanium alloy. Other elements give your arm the ability to deform arbitrarily, but because of this, your defense has declined."

Officer F frowned, looked at Wang Zhijun, he was right, it was true at the beginning, and after going to Yincun, he felt that his strength was not enough, so he carried out a second transformation, but why did Wang Zhijun know so much about it? , it is even possible that he knows his body better than himself.

"And your last body transformation was done in Yelu City, right?" Wang Zhijun was still trying to tell the truth, but he didn't say how he knew all of this, "This time the transformation is more thorough, all your prosthetic bodies have been replaced A new alloy replaces it, which makes you stronger, and you can perfectly fuse with this alloy without any rejection, I think this is why they chose you to come."

"What the hell are you trying to say? I started to help you investigate the case, but I didn't ask you to investigate me." Officer F felt as if he was walking naked on the road, and everyone's eyes were on him, which made him uncomfortable. comfortable.

"I said that I came to you this time because this mine is related to you," Wang Zhijun smiled mysteriously, "because the alloy on your body was collected and refined from the core of Jupiter." (End)
