Everyone boarded the transport ship under the command of the foreman. The sky that was approaching dusk suddenly seemed to have melted, revealing a dark veil.
The foreman stayed where he was and did not board the ship. He stared in the direction of the mine, praying for a miracle. Everyone was as worried as the foreman. They knew that there were still two people in the mine whose fate was unknown. They all gathered around the cabin door to look out.
At this moment, darkness had engulfed the entire sky, and the boundary of the land was slowly shrinking. It would not be long before this plate disappeared completely.
As time passed, the boundary had shrunk to a visible range. The foreman sighed and turned to step onto the stairs.
"Look!"
"It's them!"
Everyone suddenly cheered.
The foreman heard the cheers and turned around instantly. A cart had appeared at the entrance of the mine, and a worker with a bloody face was sitting on it. Wei Guanqing was sweating profusely as he pushed the cart out of the mine. The hole trembled violently, and gravel fell down one after another. Fortunately, it did not hit the two of them.
The foreman immediately ran down the stairs and rushed toward Wei Guanqing. With their efforts, they finally boarded the transport ship at the last moment when the plate disappeared.
At this time, the plate had completely disappeared, leaving only the transport ship floating alone in the darkness.
"The mine suddenly collapsed and a big rock fell from above. If it wasn't for him, I definitely wouldn't have been able to come back!”The worker saved by Wei Guanqing described the terrifying scene to the onlookers.
Wei Guanqing was so tired that he sat in a corner, panting heavily. The foreman walked to his side and stretched out his hand.
Wei Guanqing looked at the foreman in confusion, not understanding his intentions.
"Thank you for saving him!" The foreman said. He looked at Wei Guanqing, who was sweating profusely. After a moment of silence, he added,"I also formally apologize for my rude behavior this morning. I'm sorry.”
Wei Guanqing shook his head and held his hand. It was a formal reconciliation.
" Everyone here has been with me for many years. Although I'm the one managing them, they're more like my brothers and sisters, so I'm really grateful that you didn't leave Lacey and my family behind..." The foreman said with a sob.
Wei Guanqing was moved by his affectionate appearance, but he could not say anything. He could only nod repeatedly in response.
Only then did the foreman remember that Wei Guanqing couldn't speak, so he said,""When we arrive at the base later, I'll take you to check if there's a problem with any of the programs.”
Hearing his words, Wei Guanqing's eyes lit up with hope again.
The foreman saw this and said," Don't worry. I should help you. Besides, you saved Lexie."”
The transport ship arrived at the base in the middle of the night. The foreman did not go back on his word and greeted Wei Guanqing directly. The two of them went to check on Wei Guanqing.
The machine scanned Wei Guanqing again and again, and the staff beside him became more and more puzzled. There was no scan result on the screen.
" I'm afraid this machine is broken. It was fine yesterday afternoon, but now it's not responding..." the staff said.
"This is too unfortunate!" The foreman echoed.
The three of them looked at each other awkwardly.
At this moment, the staff member spoke up." This isn't anything urgent. If we just can't speak, we can try loading the chip directly.”
The staff member took out the program chip. Wei Guanqing was about to load it when he received a response asking if he should unload the original version and reload this version.
Wei Guanqing chose to confirm, and the new program was loaded in the blink of an eye.
" 1…" Wei Guanqing said.
The moment they heard the voice, everyone's anxious hearts relaxed.
" You're the strangest person I've ever met. Usually, when people test their voices, they'll say hello!”the staff member joked.
Wei Guanqing also laughed. He didn't know why he wanted to count to 123.
The foreman brought him back to the dormitory. After a good meal, he mentioned the control collar on Wei Guanqing's neck. He was still quite concerned. After all, wearing a collar meant that he was a criminal.
Wei Guanqing also told him everything that had happened here, but he hid what had happened earlier.
After figuring out the ins and outs, the foreman was filled with righteous indignation. He wrote an email overnight and sent it to Ke Le's guard department. Then, he told Wei Guanqing that he could leave for Ke Le at dawn and clear his name according to the instructions of the guards.
Wei Guanqing thanked him again and again.
" I really admire your spirit of sacrificing yourself for others," the foreman said with a hint of drunkenness." If there's a chance, let's have a few more drinks."”
The night gradually darkened, and only two drunk figures were left at the table.
The next day, with the help of the foreman, Wei Guanqing boarded the transport ship to Ke Le.
Kohler was the second largest sector of the empire, second only to the main city Tuyi. It was also the location of the empire's guard department.
As soon as Wei Guanqing arrived at Ke Le, someone was waiting to take him to the guard department.
The Guard Department looked quite large. Not only was it the headquarters of the Empire's soldiers, but it also had the largest prison in the Empire. The number of prisoners it could accommodate far exceeded that of other departments. It was also the detention center for important criminals.
After a brief statement, the staff took Wei Guanqing to the court for a new trial.
When the judge asked Wei Guanqing where he came from, Wei Guanqing said that he fell into the sea and lost his memory.
This was a very safe answer, but the judge said that Wei Guanqing needed to do a code test to determine his identity.
Accompanied by the judge, Wei Guanqing was brought to the examination room.
The machine here looked much more advanced than the one at the base. When Wei Guanqing entered the scanning area of the machine, a white light enveloped him. As the machine slowly operated, Wei Guanqing's name was displayed on the screen.
Seeing that the name on the screen was the same as Wei Guanqing's, the judge nodded slightly.
The machine continued to operate, and a string of codes appeared below Wei Guanqing's name. The string of codes kept getting longer and longer, as if it was endless, refreshing endlessly on the screen.
The staff looked at the screen strangely. This was a phenomenon that had never happened before.
"What happened?" the judge asked.
The staff member shook his head, indicating that he was not too sure.
The machine was running faster and faster, and the refresh rate of the code on the screen also increased. After a while, the entire machine was buzzing, and the refresh rate of the code on the screen was no longer visible to the naked eye.
"Stop!" The judge shouted in panic.
The staff quickly pressed the stop button, but the machine did not have any intention of stopping and continued to turn.
Wei Guanqing was dizzy from the spinning of the machine. The bad thing was that after the machine turned to a specific speed, a sizzling electric current appeared in the white light.
The lightning was conducted on Wei Guanqing's body. The surrounding white light seemed to have turned into a thick solid, pressing down on Wei Guanqing from all directions.
"Ah!" Wei Guanqing roared in pain.
However, almost at the same time, he saw blurry figures appear beside him.
One of them was himself holding the color plate, and the other was himself fully armed.
Wei Guanqing was sandwiched between two of himself. He endured the pain of being squeezed and reached out to touch the version of himself holding the color tray.
The moment he touched it, his fully armed self turned into a bubble, and the self holding the color tray turned around to look at him, frowning and saying something silently.
The machine had reached its limit. With a roar, a flash of fire mixed with lightning shot out of the machine. Wei Guanqing fell to the ground and did not wake up. The entire testing room was filled with thick smoke.
A slender index finger replayed the scene of the explosion in the testing room on the screen, and then repeatedly watched the image of Wei Guanqing before he fell to the ground. Finally, the image stopped on the screen of the testing machine that had turned into garbled characters.
"I finally found you!" the man said coldly.
