In the other world, there were no legends of the original people, nor were there any records in the computers of the Temple of Time, so help had to be sought in the field of technology.
What Xiao Xun did not know was that because he had built the particle laser cannon in advance, he had already alerted extraterrestrial civilizations, and they had begun to act.
Returning to the base, Xiao Xun found an old acquaintance, Black Shark, one of the world's top hackers.
Su Xiang's ability to get things done was indeed strong, and his actions were fast. In just two days, he had found two people, Black Shark and Golden Finger.
Xiao Xun sat at his desk, looking at Black Shark in the interrogation chair, a smile on his face, "Long time no see!"
Black Shark looked confused, "Have we met?"
"I'm very curious, since you're not lame, why are you sitting in a wheelchair?"
"Who are you?"
Xiao Xun did not answer his question, but continued, "How did you escape from the detention center in G City that day?"
Black Shark suddenly realized, "I was arrested last time because of you? Are you the police..."
Xiao Xun shook his head, "If I were really a police officer, would you still be here?"
"Who exactly are you? I don't like riddles."
"Hackers don't like riddles? Fine, but since you're here, I will still treat you with courtesy."
Black Shark looked at his bound hands and feet, "Is this your courtesy?"
Xiao Xun gave a look to the guard captain, who had the person behind Black Shark release him.
"I've come to invite you to join my organization."
"What organization? I'm a hacker, and I don't work for free. You've found the wrong person, you should be looking for the Hackers Alliance."
Xiao Xun pointed at Black Shark, "No, I'm looking for you. We're old rivals. Don't you even recognize your own nemesis?"
"Nemesis? You?"
Black Shark sized up Xiao Xun, "I don't have a nemesis as young as you."
"You're quite the flatterer. I won't keep you in suspense, so you don't say I'm insincere. My online name is Dark Commander."
Black Shark's eyes nearly popped out, "You're Dark Commander?"
"Genuine and authentic."
Black Shark, who had stood up, sat back down, "If you say you're Dark Commander, I might as well say I'm an Ark survivor."
"Believe me, he will be here soon too."
"Bragging, who do you think you are? Even if you are Dark Commander, catching me was my carelessness. You definitely won't catch anyone else."
Xiao Xun said confidently, "If you don't believe me, let's try."
Black Shark still looked disbelieving, "Are you really Dark Commander?"
Xiao Xun crossed his arms, "We can chat slowly once everyone is here."
Then he said to the person beside him, "Take him down and keep a close watch. This kid can fly to heaven and escape to earth."
"Yes!"
Black Shark was taken away, and Golden Finger was brought in.
Xiao Xun looked at the Caucasian man, who was in his fifties, almost sixty, and asked curiously, "Are you Golden Finger?"
Golden Finger nodded, "Although I don't know what you're going to do to me, I am indeed Golden Finger."
"Do you know about the Gatekeeper Convention?"
"I've heard a little. I don't know what you need me to do by summoning me, sir?"
"You're much more straightforward than that stinking fish."
Golden Finger looked at Xiao Xun in surprise, "Black Shark is also here with you?"
"You two arrived one after another. Alright, enough with the nonsense. I've invited you here to help me develop the system."
"I'm just a hacker. I'm not good at programming."
"I'm not asking you to write programs, but to link them together."
Golden Finger looked at Xiao Xun curiously, "I don't understand what you mean?"
"The human body has a central nervous system. I hope you can link the nervous system with the computer system."
Golden Finger said disdainfully, "Isn't this just making a robot that can imitate movements according to voice commands!"
"That's right, that's the idea. It seems I've found the right person in you."
Golden Finger smiled, "That's the idea, but I can't do it. The human body is quite mysterious. You should find an expert in bionics, not a beggar 'making a living' online."
Xiao Xun extended his hand, "You don't need to be so modest. Welcome to the Cradle Project."
Golden Finger looked at Xiao Xun in surprise, "You are from the Cradle Project?"
"The overall leader, Dark Commander."
Golden Finger shook Xiao Xun's hand, "You are the renowned Dark Commander. I've heard so much about you. Good, I'll follow you."
After his subordinate took Golden Finger away, the guard captain asked Xiao Xun, "Did he agree too readily?"
"Whether he agreed readily or not doesn't matter, as long as you don't let him escape from me."
"Please rest assured, Commander. He definitely won't escape."
Xiao Xun thought of something, "The bowl of noodles you brought me that day was quite fragrant. I think those two are also hungry..."
The guard captain nodded, "Your subordinate understands."
Xiao Xun came out of the base and went to the hospital. Qin Yongmei, who had handed over her work, was lying there, with her daughter Qin Shuangxue peeling an apple by her side.
"Sister Mei."
Xiao Xun put his things aside, "How are you feeling?"
Qin Yongmei shook her head, "I don't feel great. My head is feeling dizzy. I don't know if I'll be able to open my eyes again the next time I close them."
Qin Shuangxue's eyes were red, but she said nothing.
Qin Yongmei said to Xiao Xun, "I've already told Xiao Xue to recognize you as her brother. You two should love each other as siblings from now on. If... if you still fancy my Xiao Xue, you can marry her, but she has no family on her side, so you can't bully her in the future."
"Sister Mei, what are you saying? I've always treated Xiao Xue as my own sister. Please recover with peace of mind, and let me know if you need anything."
Qin Yongmei said to Qin Shuangxue, "Xiao Xue, you go out for a bit. Your brother Xiao Xun and I have some private matters to discuss."
Qin Shuangxue nodded and went out. Before leaving, she gave Xiao Xun a meaningful glance.
Xiao Xun sat in the position where Qin Shuangxue had just been, "Sister Mei, please tell me what you want to say!"
"Since I've handed over my work, I feel much more relaxed. We only have private matters, no official business."
Qin Yongmei laboriously took out a passbook from under her pillow, "This is the money I saved from working for so many years. I originally wanted to invest it for Xiao Xue to receive monthly payments, but I wasn't at ease. Today, I'm giving you this passbook. When Xiao Xue gets married, please give it to her on my behalf as her dowry."
Xiao Xun asked curiously, "Why don't you give it to her personally?"
"She's still young and hasn't experienced society. She doesn't know how treacherous people's hearts are. I'm afraid she won't be able to keep this money. Her future, I entrust to you."
Xiao Xun put away the passbook without even looking at it, "Sister Mei, please rest assured, as long as I have a breath left, Xiao Xue will not be harmed in the slightest."
"I believe you, I believe you. It might be just these past two days. How far has that plan progressed?"
"Sister Mei, didn't we just agree that there are only private matters and no official business?"
Tears streamed down Qin Yongmei's eyes, "I was destined to have a hard life. I can never stop worrying. Area 8 has been through so much hardship, you must protect her well, please."
"Okay, I promise you. I will definitely protect Area 8. This is also my homeland, and my family is here too."
Qin Yongmei's voice was faint, "I'm not going to make it. Before I leave, I want to know what your deepest hidden secret is?"
