Chapter 378 Help me investigate one thing!
"you say."
"Do you have any special records about the number 'seven' in your files?"
Guan Xing's eyes flickered slightly.
"seven?"
"Um."
"Scope?"
"World borders, blockade, door, outside, any related words."
Guan Xing immediately said, "I'll go back and investigate."
"Don't let too many people know."
"clear."
Half an hour later, the helicopter took off.
Nie Qingcheng sat next to Zhang Yan.
She didn't look at him, only at the evacuation report on the tablet.
Qin Xiao sat opposite, glancing at Zhang Yan one moment and Nie Qingcheng the next, before finally shutting his mouth.
Zhang Yan opened the system panel.
The maintenance protocol for the door remains grayed out.
He clicked on the activation conditions.
It can only be activated after the three breaks are repaired.
First fracture: Required material, Stardust.
The second fracture: required energy, injected by the Four Spirits Energy Matrix.
The third fracture requires the first and second fractures to be repaired, and the stability of the Heavenly Craftsman's Heart must be no less than 100%.
Zhang Yan looked at the three characters "Heng Xingchen".
He didn't ask Nie Qingcheng directly.
He first retrieved the system's material database.
No stock available.
The history record is empty.
The system only provided a very vague explanation.
Ultrastable stellar core metals are typically found deep within the core of meteorites and cannot be detected by ordinary equipment.
Zhang Yan then accessed the military's satellite mineral database interface.
Search using keywords such as "high-density meteorite", "abnormal metal", and "unpublished sample".
Nie Qingcheng suddenly spoke.
"What are you investigating?"
Zhang Yan paused for a moment.
"Material."
"Fix the device below?"
"Um."
Nie Qingcheng put down her tablet and looked at him.
"What's your name?"
Zhang Yan said, "It's not confirmed yet."
Nie Qingcheng did not ask any further questions.
She simply said, "Zhang Yan, every word you say now will lead to another explanation three days from now."
Zhang Yan looked at her.
"I know."
Nie Qingcheng picked up the tablet again.
"Then continue."
Qin Xiao sat opposite him, not daring to breathe loudly.
It was already dark when we got back to Jinghai.
Nie Qingcheng neither allowed Zhang Yan to return to Tianji Security nor sent him to see Qin Changfeng.
She took him directly back to the villa.
The car was quiet.
The driver's partition is raised.
Zhang Yan said, "You're angry."
Nie Qingcheng did not look at him.
"no."
"You have."
"I said no, and that's final."
Zhang Yan said, "Alluring beauty."
Nie Qingcheng finally turned her head.
You don't need to coax me.
Zhang Yan stopped.
Nie Qingcheng looked at him, her eyes a little red, but her voice was still steady.
"I know why you're filtering information."
"You're afraid I'll worry."
"You're afraid that the more I know, the deeper I'll get involved."
"You're afraid that next time I'll be standing in front of you again."
Zhang Yan did not deny it.
Nie Qingcheng continued, "But have you ever thought that what I fear most is not knowing the truth?"
What I fear most is that you are sitting in front of me, physically alive, but your heart has already wandered off to a faraway place.
Zhang Yan's throat moved slightly.
He reached out to hold her hand.
Nie Qingcheng did not dodge.
But he didn't immediately return the handshake.
Zhang Yan said, "Three days."
Nie Qingcheng looked at him.
"I only need three days."
"And then?"
I'll tell you everything.
Nie Qingcheng then took his hand.
Her hands were cold.
"Zhang Yan, I'm only giving this one chance."
"it is good."
After returning to the villa, Nie Qingcheng went upstairs to take a shower.
Zhang Yan went into the kitchen.
The refrigerator has been refilled.
He took out some greens and eggs and cooked a simple pot of noodles.
When Nie Qingcheng came downstairs, she had changed into a silk nightgown and was wearing a light coat over it.
She sat down at the dining table.
Zhang Yan pushed the noodles over.
"Eat something first."
Nie Qingcheng looked at the noodles.
"You want to pay with noodles?"
"no."
"What is that?"
"I was afraid you'd be hungry."
Nie Qingcheng picked up her chopsticks.
I don't want to praise you right now.
"Um."
"But I will eat noodles."
"it is good."
The two finished their meal quietly.
Nie Qingcheng went upstairs to handle company affairs.
Zhang Yan entered the study.
After closing the door, he opened the system panel.
Past external contact records: 1.
He pulled up the detailed statistics.
The system began passively analyzing the recent residual fluctuations at the Shennongjia main control gate.
A new notification pops up.
Statistics on the frequency of external contact with doors.
In the past 72 hours, the first door was "knocked" 17 times.
Frequency: Increasing.
Zhang Yan stared at the line of text.
Three days ago, he had not yet arrived in Shennongjia.
In other words, that wasn't the first time.
The things outside the door have already been tested.
He just happened to overhear one of them.
There was a sudden knock on the study door.
Nie Qingcheng's voice came from outside.
"Zhang Yan".
Zhang Yan closed the system interface.
"exist."
Nie Qingcheng pushed open the door and came in.
She glanced at his computer screen.
The screen is black.
She didn't expose it.
"I can't sleep."
Zhang Yan stood up.
"I'll stay with you."
Nie Qingcheng stood at the door without moving.
"Did you see something new just now?"
Zhang Yan remained silent for a second.
"Um."
Nie Qingcheng smiled.
There is no temperature.
"Will you say it again in three days?"
Zhang Yan walked up to her.
"I can say that now."
Nie Qingcheng looked at him.
Zhang Yan said, "There was contact outside the door more than once."
Nie Qingcheng's fingers tightened.
"How many times?"
"Seventeen times in the past seventy-two hours."
Nie Qingcheng's expression finally changed.
"Incremental?"
"Um."
She didn't ask any more questions.
After a long time, she reached out and hugged Zhang Yan.
Very hard.
"Zhang Yan".
"Um."
"I hate it when you hide things from me."
"I know."
"But I hate it even more that I can't help."
Zhang Yan reached out and hugged her.
"You can help."
Nie Qingcheng's voice was very low.
"Then don't push me away."
Zhang Yan said, "Okay."
She leaned against him.
"Three more days."
"Um."
"If you don't say a single word more, I'm really going down."
"No less."
Nie Qingcheng closed her eyes.
"Remember what you said."
Zhang Yan nodded.
"I've got it."
The study fell silent.
The system interface flickered silently in the depths of Zhang Yan's vision.
External contact record: 17.
Next forecast window: Unknown.
The first morning.
Zhang Yan did not go to the school, nor did he go to Tianji Security.
He sat in the study of the villa, directly accessing the military's satellite data system.
Qin Xiao's face was still wet when he called via video.
"Brother Yan, what are you doing checking global geological data so early in the morning?"
Zhang Yan said, "Follow-up monitoring."
Qin Xiao rubbed his eyes.
"The monitoring area is that large?"
"Um."
"All six coordinates are uninhabited areas: the North Atlantic, the Sahara, Antarctica, the Andes, Siberia, and the Pacific abyss."
"Brother Yan, don't tell me there's another job coming up."
Zhang Yan did not answer.
Qin Xiao's expression gradually turned serious.
"Really?"
Zhang Yan said, "Let's adjust the data first."
Qin Xiao sat up straight.
"What dimension do you want?"
