Chapter 81: Occupied
There was nothing he could do about it because Jiang JinYuan was a simple researcher. He was also what you would commonly refer to as bookworm. He only knew how to do his best at work, so he wouldn’t know how to play the psychological game. How could someone like him possibly beat the scheming and foresighted Liu Gan in mind games?
After going up to the parking lot on basement level 1, Yin He noticed that the zombies she encountered didn’t actually take the initiative to attack her. Thus, she could very freely walk around. Moreover, she was able to move around and search in the dark very easily with her infrared vision. The electric generator room was somewhere in the parking lot on basement level 1, and it didn’t take long before Yin He found its location. She then successfully opened all the backup power sources.
The backup power sources used oil to drive them. Judging from the amount of oil reserves, the power system in the building could keep going for around an hour.
The following matters were simpler. Liu Gan commanded Yin He to walk down the stairs and return to the ground floor before walking up a few floors and entering some laboratory. There, she wirelessly connected herself to the building’s main system terminal.
After gaining access to the building’s main system, Jiang JinYuan manipulated it so that he was able to download various materials from the main system onto his PDA. He also granted himself authorization to the building’s communication system on the same PDA. This allowed Jiang JinYuan to directly use the communication system while hiding in the underground room.
“This is the San Xing Corporation’s Ninjing City Division calling the main city laboratory. I am the investigator dispatched by San Xing Corporation, Jiang JinYuan. I have some important information to bring to you. My employee number is L6A8R7, and my mission number is X6T9K4W7V3. Please dispatch some support to Sang Xing Corporation’s Ninjing City Division to pick me up after verifying my identity.” Jiang JinYuan used the building’s communication system to send out an SOS signal.
“What does the employee number and mission number mean?” Liu Gan asked Jiang JinYuan.
“They’re the only codes that the main city laboratory uses to check my identity. If they don’t check the importance of my identity and mission, then they won’t possibly send people to save us.” Jiang JinYuan replied to Liu Gan.
“You can use a code you received in the real world in here as well?” Liu Gan kept feeling something strange in the air behind all of this.
“I don’t know. In any case, the company appointed employee and mission numbers to me when I came in. After meeting the main city laboratory’s personnel, they also provided these two numbers to them to help confirm my identity.” Jiang JinYuan answered Liu Gan.
“It looks like the San Xing Corporation in the real world has an inescapable relationship with [The Trembling World]…” Liu Gan coldy snorted.
“Perhaps.” Jing JinYuan once again sent out the recording of his call earlier.
“If you call out like this, won’t other people be able to record and take your identity upon receiving your broadcast?” Liu Gan asked Jiang JinYuan another question.
“This is the encrypted channel provided by the corporation. When I send out any voice message, it will also be encrypted. Even if anyone intercepts it, it won’t be of any use unless they decode it. Moreover…if they don’t know the circumstances of my mission, what can they gain from pretending to be me?” Jiang JinYuan shook his head.
“That’s true.” Liu Gan nodded.
Jiang JinYuan sent out the call a dozen more times in succession, but he didn’t receive any response. It seemed as if this entire world had already died.
