Chapter 26 The Black Box
At nine o'clock in the night, it was raining heavily.
You walked past the path that became muddy in the rain, carrying Shirley, who was no longer conscious, on your shoulders, limped behind on Sunday, and fell in front of the female spy's house.
………
………
………
Sherry was much more injured than Sunday.
There is almost no intact skin on her body. In addition, the wound has been exposed in the wild for too long, and there is a risk of infection at any time. You need to cut off the hair near her wound to perform the disinfection smoothly. More complicated internal organ examinations must be left until dawn.
After dealing with Shirley's injuries, you bandaged yourself with the help of the female spy. On your left shoulder, a shocking wound stretched to your back.
"Without carrying a gun or a weapon, how did you kill those wolves?" asked the female spy.
"I didn't kill them. I beat them away. At first I couldn't beat them, but then I suddenly remembered that the wolves that the rural people said were all 'copper heads, iron bones, and tofu waists', so I came hard on their waists. Sunday also helped me a lot, and it led two of them away by itself... Later, I was afraid that they would call more accomplices, so I took Shirley down the mountain directly."
You actually experienced a rather tragic battle, but you try to put it lightly and don't want the female spy to worry too much. You also showed her the military belt with scratches on your waist, saying how you used this belt to make a wolf breathless, and how did you carry Shirley down the mountain with a belt. The female spy kept listening, with a smile on her face, and looked at Shirley who was resting on the bed with worry from time to time.
Your wound looks scary, but it is actually a skin trauma caused by scratching, which is fine. However, the female spy's hand was found to be damaged by bones and it takes a month to be able to work hard. You simply took over all the work in the village and let her recover at home and take care of Shirley by the way.
Since she regained consciousness, Shirley has been listless and always avoided the eyes of the female spy. You are worried that Shirley will attack her again - after all, she has had a criminal record, but the female spy treats her as usual. Every night during dinner, she still maintains her previous habits on Sunday, always lying on the ground and waving her tail. After Shirley finished eating, she would eat her own bowl happily. You looked at it and said with a smile:
"This guy was so fierce when he fought with the wild wolf. He lost his temper when he saw Shirley. He really defeated everything."
"No," the female spy shook her spoon and said happily: "Sunday is a gentleman!"
When Shirley is a little better and doesn't have to take care of her all day, the female spy always pesters you to plant rice seedlings after breakfast. Her hand injury has not healed and she can't help much, and she just sits under the shade of a tree on the edge of the fields and watches you work, and talks from time to time.
Life is not boring. She is like a child. She always likes to pick some flowers and pull a few grasses, pick up gravel on the ground and throw it into your collar. Occasionally, the female spy also does her own work. She will use her mobile phone to remotely control the Alpha Dog to patrol other places, or drag you to the observation station to tinker with the machines you don’t understand when you are not so busy.
A month has passed, the weather has become hotter, and the dressing style of female spy has become strange. Sometimes they wear a pair of suspenders of the same style as Mario, but they are unwilling to wear them well. They only hang a strap and wear a strap on the upper body, exposing half of their navel, screaming when they are bitten by mosquitoes. Sometimes they wear some ethnic costumes that they don’t know where to beat them, and they look like people from the territory who are jumping on black horses.
Shirley gradually recovered to a healthy and beautiful white wolf. During this period, her relationship with Sunday seemed to have eased a little, at least she would not bare her teeth at it when Sunday was approaching. The female spy took her to shepherd the sheep again. At sunset, the wolf howlings on the other side of the mountain were rising and falling one after another. Shirley was still sitting on the hillside, but when the female spy squatted beside her, she would droop her ears softly and look at her master with her side eyes.
Shirley called out softly. The female spy gently hugged her and said:
"I know..."
The early rice has been sown, and the next time is waiting for the harvest, you finally have free time to accompany the female spy and Sunday. There are many books transported from the library in the commune warehouse, studying and cooking have become your most common pastime in the day. A few days later, the female spy suddenly came to the door, full of energy.
"Zhang Sirui, let's go on a trip?"
You were stunned.
"Travel? What kind of tourism?"
"It's probably in Hainan... in Sanya, we will take a helicopter and we will arrive in half a day."
"No... Why do you suddenly remember to travel?"
The female spy smiled and told you the whole story.
"Actually, since I came to this shelter, I have been tracking the signals of several near-Earth satellites. Since there is no manual intervention in the correction of the orbit, these satellites will be pulled by gravity and gradually depart from orbit. The satellite I have been detecting for a while happened to fall near Sanya..."
"Let me scrutinize it, you keep staring at the satellite, just to wait for it to fall and then run to pick it up. That's what it means?"
"It can be understood so too."
"But, what do you want that thing? Make Gundam?"
The female spy curled her lips:
"You don't know this. There are so many things you can do! Although the satellite crashes, the black box sealed inside will not be damaged. If I can get that black box, I can do a lot of things. For example, the black box will store the last aerial data of the near-Earth satellite, which can help us update the satellite map of the entire earth. It is indispensable for the research on the ecological changes of the entire earth. The more I understand what happened on the earth in the past year, the more likely it is to plan in advance and avoid some unknown risks. Also, the black box is an information device that is not open to the public. It will store a lot of high-tech aviation technology source codes. If there are these source codes, I can further program the Alpha to make more things..."
You were convinced by the female spy. In short, the black box will release a signal of a specific frequency within a short period of time after the satellite crash waiting for people to discover. The opportunity must not be missed and you need to set off as soon as possible. As for the female spy, since she has not been able to use her power, she will need you to help with some exploration and transportation work after she arrives in Sanya. However, the most important thing is actually not this.
You stared at the military helicopter in front of you that you hadn't used for half a year, and twitched the corners of your mouth.
"You don't... want someone who has only played with drones to drive this thing, right?"
The female spy looked innocent and shook the bandage on her hands.
