Age of Cataclysm: I can light up the technology tree

One day later.

Human Alliance Starship Driving Training Institution.

In the office, everyone is immersed in sorting the documents in front of them.

"Old Song, are the background check results out?"

A male voice sounded in the quiet office.

Upon hearing this question, a middle-aged man about 40 years old suddenly raised his head from the pile of documents in front of him and looked forward.

"Principal Zhang, the results are out!"

As he spoke, Song Xiangming picked up a document on his desk and handed it to the man standing in front of him.

The man's name is Zhang Wang, and he is the principal of the People's Alliance Starship Driving Training Institution. It is affiliated with the Academy of Sciences and is fully responsible for the training of starship pilots.

Zhang Wang reached out and took the document handed over by Song Xiangming and opened a page at random.

"Zhao Zijie..."

"Ordinary families, in elementary school, get three top students every year, in junior high school..."

There was a bit of weirdness in Zhang Wang's expression.

With such detailed background information, a guess suddenly appeared in his mind.

He took a deep breath and sighed softly: "Is this done by Zero?"

Song Xiangming nodded quickly: "Yes, the Academy of Sciences attaches great importance to it and specially allocated some resources to us."

Zhang Wang nodded thoughtfully: "Now that the background review has been completed, let's find a time to notify them to come over. By coincidence, my test questions have also been completed."

"Okay!" Song Xiangming nodded vigorously.

…

Magic City.

After watching the live broadcast of the construction of the space elevator, Zhao Zijie was thinking about the application he submitted.

I don’t know when I will be notified.

Thinking of the identity and background requirements on the registration page, Zhao Zijie's heart beat.

Although he could guarantee that he and his parents had not done anything wrong, but the previous generation...he really didn't know.

He sat on the sofa, staring blankly out the window, recalling everything that had happened over the past year.

From the abnormal global aurora to the birth of the Xuannv series of space planes, from the Pangu fusion reactor to the birth of the space elevator, every trivial matter was strung together into a complete event in his mind.

Zhao Zijie looked at the blue sky outside the window and sighed deeply.

I don’t know how long such a peaceful life can last. If the registration is unsuccessful...

His eyes were full of confusion.

I really don’t know how an ordinary person can protect himself in such an era.

Just as he was about to get up and pick up the books on the table next to him to review some more, a familiar cell phone rang.

Zhao Zijie was slightly startled.

Who would call him at this time?

He turned around and grabbed the cell phone on the sofa.

A series of strange, unfamiliar numbers.

He hesitated for a moment and pressed the answer button.

"Hello?"

"Hello, is this Zhao Zijie? This is the People's Alliance Starship Driving Training Institution."

Listening to the smooth female voice on the phone, Zhao Zijie's heart began to beat violently!

"Excuse me, are you the one who signed up for this starship pilot training program?"

"Yes...yes, I signed up myself!" Zhao Zijie asked with a somewhat rapid breathing, "Excuse me..."

The female voice on the microphone interrupted him.

"Congratulations on passing the background review, please go to the capital within three working days..."

Zhao Zijie quickly got up, ran all the way to the computer desk, grabbed a pen and wrote down the address in the blank space.

"Okay, okay, I understand."

After hanging up the phone, the smile on his face gradually grew stronger.

Success!

Although the background check was only the most basic level, he still breathed a sigh of relief.

At least, he is now qualified to compete for the position of starship pilot!

At the same time, outside the window that he didn't notice, a camera on the roadside quietly changed its angle.

…

the next day.

Carrying a black backpack, Zhao Zijie walked off the subway with the crowd and entered the high-speed rail station.

He booked a high-speed train ticket for 9:30 in the morning, and it was still more than an hour before departure.

After thinking for a while, he walked towards a breakfast shop.

In the corner where he didn't notice, the cameras quietly changed their positions and captured his actions without missing a beat.

After ordering, Zhao Zijie sat silently in a corner of the breakfast shop.

Ever since he was a child, he didn't like crowded places.

He prefers to sit alone in a secluded corner and silently observe everyone's expressions and movements.

Just like before, after Zhao Zijie sat on the chair, his eyes subconsciously glanced at the people sitting in the lobby eating.

"Hello, this is your sticky rice."

His act of "human observation" was interrupted by the waiter's voice.

"Oh, okay, thank you." Zhao Zijie subconsciously nodded to the waiter to thank him.

But the next moment, his movements suddenly stopped.

"Sir? What's wrong?" the waitress asked softly with a gentle smile on her face.

Zhao Zijie frowned slightly and shook his head: "It's okay...I'm sorry, maybe I'm too sensitive."

The smile on the waitress's face did not change at all: "Okay sir, if you have any other needs, just let me know."

After saying that, the waiter turned around and left.

Zhao Zijie frowned and looked at the waiter's back, lost in thought.

He didn't know why, but he always felt that this waiter was a bit weird.

At least, it doesn't look like a waiter.

After thinking for a while, Zhao Zijie, who didn't get any answer, chose to give up.

Just as he was about to concentrate on dealing with the glutinous rice in front of him, he suddenly saw an extremely "abnormal" scene from the corner of his eye.

A woman holding a child, sitting quietly in the corner of the lobby.

At first glance, it seems that there is no big problem.

But... the child's sleeping posture is a bit strange.

It doesn't look like sleeping, but like coma.

The moment this thought flashed through his mind, Zhao Zijie's heart jumped suddenly.

Could it be that he ran into the so-called human traffickers?

He put down the chopsticks in his hand and prepared to get up.

"The G713258 train from the Magic City to the capital has started to check tickets, please..."

The broadcast outside the store came at the right time.

Zhao Zijie frowned and fell into hesitation.

After thinking about it, he gave up the idea of ​​"meddling".

At this time, he can't afford any mistakes.

If he missed this interview because of meddling, he would probably regret it for the rest of his life!

Thinking of this, Zhao Zijie sighed slightly, turned around, grabbed the packed glutinous rice, and walked out of the restaurant.

The camera in the high-speed rail station moved slowly, watching him go away.

After confirming that Zhao Zijie had left, the waiter breathed a sigh of relief.

She reached out and grabbed the intercom in the counter, and said, "Team leader, this guy is very vigilant, I almost got caught just now."

"Be careful when you follow up!"

The next moment, a male voice came from the intercom: "Received."
