Chapter 48
Chapter 48: School Registration
After breakfast, Chen Yu greeted Sister Qi and left with three memory cards.
He first went to the store to buy a card reader, then found an internet café and opened a private room.
Ding.
Through the card reader, the computer successfully identified the information of the memory card, and a mobile hard disk space popped up.
“It really can…”
Swallowing his saliva, Chen Yu’s fingers trembled as he clicked the mouse.
Pa, pa.
The hard drive opened and hundreds of files with weird formats were displayed.
The reason why it was described as ‘weird’ was because the suffixes of each file were twisted words.
One horizontal and one vertical, filled with danger and coldness, made Chen Yu instinctively feel uncomfortable.
After hesitating for a long time, he bent down, unplugged the internet cable of the computer host, then changed the suffix of one of the files to TXT, and entered to confirm.
The file immediately became a text format that could be opened.
Double-click to confirm.
Twenty seconds after the computer ran the calculation, the file opened.
Of course, it was full of gibberish.
He controlled the mouse to scroll down. In addition to gibberish and strange words, Chen Yu also saw English letters, Arabic characters, and simplified Chinese in horror…
It was roughly the repetition of words or words such as ‘live’, ‘anti-live’, ‘recombine’, ‘duplicate’, ‘cell’ and so on.
Narrowing his eyes, his brain was thinking rapidly.
He read the remaining two memory cards in turn.
He used TXT, EXE, doc, JPG, PNG, MP3, AVI format all once.
But except for TXT and doc, all the other types failed to open.
For the whole morning, Chen Yu was in this box, deciphering the strange files.
But he was not a professional after all. He didn’t get much out of the few hours.
He could only draw the conclusion of ‘resurrection’ from the English, foreign, and Chinese languages.
“So, does this place record the knowledge of resurrection?”
Carefully putting away the three memory cards, Chen Yu thought about this problem and left the internet café, returning to the cigarette shop.
“Chen Yu, where have you been all morning?” As soon as he entered the room, he was questioned by Sister Qi.
“I went to the internet café to look up information on fighting.”
“There are less than five days left before the college entrance exam. There’s no point in studying anymore.” Sister Qi breathed in the smoke and said lazily, “I’ll take you to sing and relax a little.”
“Don’t!” Chen Yu was so frightened that he quivered. “You even attracted the Beast Tide last time.”
Sister Qi: “…You’re bullshitting.”
…
That night, at ten o’clock in the evening.
Chen Yu entered the strange realm again and filled the three metal balls with the black oil in the prepared bottles.
Then he continued to go deeper.
After a series of twists and turns, he finally came to the end and saw the source of the radiation.
It was a collapsed wall.
From the black ash on the ceiling, the ground, and the burnt and melted metal, one could imagine that there had been a big explosion here.
“I see.”
Chen Yu almost knew why there was radiation in the alien land.
It must be because some high-tech device here was damaged, resulting in the leakage of nuclear radiation.
Moreover, the radiation concentration in this huge alien land varied from east to west, south to north, proving that there was more than one damaged device.
He went forward and pushed the ruins with force.
Crash–
Only a few pieces of debris fell.
“It’s not something that can be removed by human strength.”
Shaking his head, Chen Yu held the Tang blade and walked in the direction of another source of radiation.
He had been ‘living’ here for a month.
He had some understanding of the layout of the place, so it was not easy for him to get lost.
Therefore, he quickly ‘circled’ the metal corridors that looked like replicas and approached the radiation source on the other side.
He also found the fourth metal ball.
“Looks like there are a lot of these things…”
He squatted down and knocked on the ball. Chen Yu checked it a few times, picked up the Tang blade, and poked a small hole on the surface.
Wisps of black grease immediately flowed out. He hurriedly caught it with a bottle.
When the sphere was hollowed out, it was cruelly cut into pieces.
Clang.
Taking out the motherboard, Chen Yu kicked the shell away with his foot, and began to ponder again.
Obviously, there were many such things in the foreign land.
As the government continued to introduce new protective clothing, sooner or later, there would be martial artists approaching the location of the radiation source.
Naturally, they would find the other metal balls sooner or later.
The alien realm was so big that Chen Yu could not collect all of them by himself.
This meant that he could not complete the monopoly on the ‘metal balls’.
“So…”
“I’d better go to the black market and sell this thing. I can still exchange it for some money.”
“But I have to keep the memory card…”
Having made up his mind, he sped up the search.
At 7 am the next day, he obtained another motherboard.
…
Following the old method, he stuffed two motherboards and a bottle of black oil into his stomach. Chen Yu left the 341B Space Portal Square in a carefree manner.
On the streets, there were more and more banners hanging.
Everywhere was filled with slogans such as [Qingcheng College Entrance Exam, fighting for the top scorer!], [Countdown of 4 days!], [Please visit www.LSP(temporary ticket).com to purchase the live tickets], [Seize the day! Protect the country!] and so on.
“It’s time to consider the issue of tickets for my family.”
As he walked, Chen Yu took out his phone and logged into the temporary ticket website to check the ticket prices.
The VIP seats were sold out.
First row seats, Area A, 50,000 yuan each. Area B, 30,000 yuan each. Area C, D, E, F, G, 20,000 yuan each.
Second row seats, Area A, 35,000 yuan each. Area B, 22,000 yuan each. C, D, E, F, G, 10,000 yuan each.
Third row seats, 20,000 yuan each in Area A…
“WDNMD…”
Chen Yu scratched his ears. There was no ‘f*ck’ to speak of.
He knew that the VIP seats would have a high price of more than 10,000, or even hundreds of thousands.
But he did not expect that the price of the ordinary audience seats would also exceed 10,000 yuan.
After calculating his own value, he lamented.
Only 20,700 yuan..
And this was the cash found from Lewei and the others.
Now that the internet payment was getting more and more developed, his ‘box-licking party’ was too passive.
…
Ten minutes later.
In the bedroom of the cigarette shop.
Chen Yu used a dagger to cut open the isolation layer of the two motherboards, took out the memory cards, and put them together with the other three memory cards, keeping them well.
Then, he was ready to finish his breakfast and go to the black market to sell the motherboards.
But halfway through his breakfast, Sister Qi’s phone rang.
When she picked it up, it was from the form teacher of Class Six of No. 7 High School.
After chatting for a while, Sister Qi hung up the phone and took a bite of her food. While eating, she said to Chen Yu, “No. 7 High School has informed you to go to school before nine o’clock this morning.”
“What are they going to do?”
“There are only four days left for the college entrance examination. Strictly speaking, there are only three days left. You need to go to No. 7 High School to take photos and register. Get to know the class teacher and have him tell you about the rules of the college entrance examination.”
“Okay, I’ll go in a while.”
“By the way…” Sister Qi narrowed her eyes. “Didn’t I send you to No. 7 High School on the day of the Beast Tide? Why did the class teacher say that he hasn’t seen you?”
“He… might have dementia.”
“The teacher-in-charge of Class 6 is only 20 or 30 years old.”
“Isn’t that the age for dementia?” Chen Yu asked back.
Sister Qi: “…”
