My Apocalypse Fortress Vehicle
11. Similar
Under Gu Zhuo's questioning, he learned that Chaoying's younger brother Chaoyang had not been in good health since he was born. It was also at that time that Chaoying's family had some changes that she refused to disclose, and she and her younger brother were the only ones left to depend on each other.
While Chaoying was taking care of his younger brother, he was recruited into the Tsinghua experimental class in advance because he was too good. In order to retain Chao Ying as a talented person, Tsinghua University promised to waive all her tuition fees, and also raised funds for her brother to help him treat his illness.
But two months ago, Chaoying made a decision that no one expected: to drop out of Tsinghua University. Many people came to persuade her, and many people tried to figure out why she wanted to drop out of school. But Chaoying didn't say anything, and just silently brought Chaoyang back to City A. This is her and Chaoyang's hometown.
Back in City A, what’s even more shocking is that she didn’t choose a high-paying career, and there were obviously many good companies offering olive branches in front of her. But she chose to become an ordinary cashier in a gas station supermarket without hesitation.
No one could understand her choice and thought she had something to hide. But after all, this is the life Chaoying insists on choosing, and no one can change it.
Two months ago, Gu Zhuo noticed this point in the whole story. For him, this is a sensitive number, because his entire life has completely changed since two months ago.
"Maybe it's a coincidence."
Gu Zhuo didn't let himself think too much. After all, if he asked Chaoying about this first, he might miss something. He doesn't want to tell Chaoying that he has a "mechanic" yet. He is worried that unnecessary disclosure of information will cause trouble.
Seeing that he was silent, Chaoying continued to persuade him:
"If you believe in my professional ability, I really recommend that you don't become too dependent on this so-called doomsday fortress. I think you can survive in it until the end of winter, or until you are discovered. If you rely too much on this doomsday fortress, I'm afraid..."
Gu Zhuo interrupted her and said:
"I appreciate your kindness, but I have enough confidence in my Doomsday Fortress. If Chaoying you have nowhere else to go, I can let you live in the Doomsday Fortress, but I have a condition."
After hearing the conditions, Chaoying subconsciously became hostile to Gu Zhuo:
"If the condition is to sell your body, then you don't need to ask me. I can't agree."
"How is that possible!" Gu Zhuo waved his hand quickly, "My condition is that I hope you can help me draw the renovation design of the Doomsday Fortress."
Hearing this, Chaoying was obviously stunned. She didn't expect Gu Zhuo's request to be so strange.
Doomsday fortress renovation plan? Does this guy want to carry out large-scale modifications to his car in this environment? Isn't this tantamount to seeking death?
She repeated: "Mr. Gu Zhuo, are you really not joking about the renovation design of the Doomsday Fortress?"
Gu Zhuo nodded and confirmed her:
"No kidding! You don't have to call me husband, just call me by my name. I'm just a rough guy and I can't bear such a formal title."
Hearing that Gu Zhuo was not joking and seeing that his expression was so serious, Chaoying thought quickly in his mind. Suddenly, a possibility occurred to her.
The probability of this possibility is very small, but it is not completely impossible.
All I can do now is survive and then take another step. It is not difficult to draw a design drawing for Gu Zhuo, and with the possibility that just flashed in his mind, Chaoying also wanted to find an opportunity to verify it.
"Okay, I promise you that I will draw you a design plan for the renovation of the Doomsday Fortress. In exchange, you will let me stay in your fortress for a while until I find a new place. From now on, we will be considered a cooperative relationship."
"Okay." Gu Zhuo was very satisfied with the result. He stretched out his hand and shook Chaoying's hand, reaching some kind of contract.
"However, you now have to give me a design drawing of your Doomsday Fortress. I must carry out modifications and upgrades based on your original design drawing."
Chaoying made a request.
This request is not too much, but Gu Zhuo is in trouble. Without him, his design drawings had been annexed by the "Machinist" when he created the Doomsday Fortress. Where can he get the design drawings again now?
But people always come up with solutions. Since the "machinist" can annex the design drawings, maybe he can use some method to restore them back. Thinking of this, Gu Zhuo stood up and said to Chaoying:
"Well, just wait for me and I'll go look for you."
With that said, he asked Sam to stay where he was and look at Chaoying to prevent her from doing anything, and he walked back to the bedroom alone. After all, he couldn't completely trust her yet.
He walked back to the bedroom and locked the bedroom door to make sure Chaoying couldn't come in. Gu Zhuo sat on the bed and began to carefully recall all the details of the design.
At first, he only had the shell of the Doomsday Fortress in his mind. Later, the shell gradually turned into an all-round three-dimensional structural diagram. Then, the structural diagram spread out bit by bit, shrunk, and turned into lines one by one. These lines seem to be dancing in front of Gu Zhuo, chaotic yet full of rules.
After an unknown amount of time, those lines finally formed a flat image. When Gu Zhuo opened his eyes again, he was surprised to find that in his hand was the original design of the Doomsday Fortress!
He didn't expect that the "mechanic" would have such a hidden ability. Gu Zhuo was overjoyed and quickly took the design drawing, opened the bedroom door, and went out to hand it to Chao Ying.
At this time, Sam was staring at Chaoying warily. The Caucasian dog is extremely loyal to its owner and has a strong sense of protecting the family. Naturally, Sam was absolutely wary of strangers like Chaoying who appeared out of thin air.
Chaoying didn't care about Sam's hostility towards her, she took the design from Gu Zhuo. As she carefully observed the design, her expression became more and more weird.
"Gu Zhuo, are you sure what you gave me is your design for the Doomsday Fortress and not some fantasy machine information?"
"I'm sure!" Gu Zhuo replied with great certainty.
"Take it again and make sure."
Chaoying said, and handed the design back to Gu Zhuo with full of suspicion.
Gu Zhuo took the design draft and read it again while thinking to himself: He is indeed a serious mechanical researcher. He could tell at a glance that this was a design drawing he had asked a fantasy painter to draw.
But when he thought about the unparalleled design of two air cannons installed on his doomsday fortress, Chaoying could tell that these were fantasy weapons, and it didn't seem to be anything special.
In order to conceal the existence of the "mechanic", Gu Zhuo still had to bite the bullet and answered her with certainty: "Absolutely, this is my design draft."
Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows at Ying. She held the design drawing in her hand, pointed at several places, and muttered:
"If your doomsday fortress is really built according to the design drawings, then I would like to apologize for my previous remarks. Indeed, in addition to dispatching specialized troops, a doomsday fortress of this level must also be Only an army equipped with high-tech weapons can conquer your fortress vehicle.
"But..."
Chaoying seemed thoughtful, lowering his head and looking at the design drawings but he hesitated to speak.
She was silent for a moment, then raised her head and stared at Gu Zhuo with an unfathomable gaze:
"However, it is completely impossible to build such a doomsday fortress based on current technology. This is a completely theoretical vehicle! You insist that this is your design draft, there are only two possibilities... .”
"What two possibilities?"
Gu Zhuo and Chao Ying looked at each other. It had to be said that this woman was indeed difficult to deal with. She was indeed a genius recruited in advance from Tsinghua's experimental class.
Chaoying put down the design drawing in her hand and moved closer to Gu Zhuo, almost face to face with him. All the other person's micro-expressions could be caught in her eyes.
Chaoying decided to take a gamble and completely verify the conjecture in his mind about the slim possibility:
“Either you are a complete liar or a lunatic.
"Otherwise, you and I are the same kind."
similar! ?
As soon as this word came out, Gu Zhuo was stunned. The next second, he thought of something and looked at Chaoying in shock.
When Chaoying saw his expression, he knew that he had guessed correctly.
"Gu Zhuo, are you like me? Two months ago, you knew the end of the world was coming."
Hearing this, Gu Zhuo was silent for a long time, and finally nodded without any more words.
It turned out that half a year ago, Chao Ying, like Gu Zhuo, would often have some inexplicable information in his mind. After a thorough psychological and physical examination, as well as verification of the information, Chaoying was certain that he had acquired the ability to predict the future due to some unknowable reasons.
And according to her observation, of all the people around her, only she has gained this ability.
Two months ago, the message that the end of the world was coming popped into her head. Since the information about the future in his mind had never been wrongly predicted before, Chaoying chose to believe in the seemingly absurd news that the end of the world was coming after some weighing.
She didn't know exactly what the end of the world would be, but her subconscious told her that it would be dangerous to stay in the school.
Making a decisive decision, she immediately took her brother back to her hometown, City A.
She has planned many routes for survival in the doomsday, but no matter how she plans, the most important thing is the material preparation and safety protection at the end of the day. She searched in City A for a long time and finally chose a gas station.
The gas station is located in a remote area with few residents around it. She and Chaoyang moved to the employee dormitory behind the gas station where not many people lived, and began to renovate the employee dormitory, transforming it into a temporary safe house. When the end comes, as she owns a gas station and supermarket, she can be the first to have more supplies than others.
Just in case, she also bought a lot of self-defense tools. The knife she used to stab the employee who tried to do evil to her was no ordinary knife at all. It was a military dagger, very sharp.
Although he knew that his plan still had many loopholes, Chaoying had no other better countermeasures. She has no money, no connections, and no experience in surviving the apocalypse.
No one would believe what she said about the coming end. Even if some people chose to believe it, it would be because they wanted to please her and get her, rather than actually helping her in any substantial way.
Ever since that incident happened, Chaoying has never believed in any bullshit about human nature.
Similarly, while Gu Zhuo gained the special ability "Mechanic", Chaoying also gained a special ability.
But this special ability seems to be of no use for surviving in the apocalypse. Her ability is called: "Mathematician".
