Chapter 3 The way home
"What's wrong?"
The man who just pushed her into the car was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his head to look at the display on the screen, and cursed, "The identification system in the factory has been broken these days. Even after reporting it to the high-dimensional people, they have no plans."
It’s too inconvenient to change, please use biometrics!”
After saying that, the man pointed to the place next to him where his fingerprints were swiped.
Yin Yueli knew that even if she had to swipe her fingerprints instead, she would not pass!
Turning to look at the man, she explained: "I don't really want to go back today, how about you leave first?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" The man rolled his eyes at her, "Gaowei people have classified our place as a slum and will start a cleaning plan at night. Do you want to die here?"
There was a cold war. Although he didn't quite understand what the "purge plan" was, Yin Yueli also knew that staying would mean death.
Her fingers trembled slightly, and she placed her hand on the recognition system with a heavy breath——
"Dip! Recognition passed, welcome home, Vera."
Her body froze, and her heart was filled with shock, but her face remained calm—
Vera is this woman's name, but how could I...
Just as she was thinking about it, she came to her seat and stretched out her thumb. Only then did she notice that there was a woman's blood on her thumb——
The blood left behind when he killed her during the fight.
For biometric identification, fingerprints are OK, but blood is even better, so the machine reads blood first.
She breathed a long sigh of relief, licked her lips, and followed the example of the people around her, leaning on the chair to look as relaxed as possible.
After a while, the whole body seemed to be out of control, and the eyes closed soon...
…
"We're here at Balihe, follow up behind me when you get off the bus! Hurry up, don't delay my get off work!"
When Yin Yueli opened his eyes again, the surroundings were so familiar——
Bali River?!
Isn't this a place in Dongpu District, Linjiang City? She has traveled here before, so she knows!
Could it be that the "dirty soil" those people just mentioned is the real world they live in?
Somewhat unsure, she staggered out of the car. When her feet actually stepped on the ground, she realized that her helmet and mask had all been taken off, and she had also changed into a neat little suit.
——
Only the blood stain on her thumb reminded her that everything just happened really happened.
"What the hell is going on..."
Yin Yueli did not live in Linjiang City, but she still felt inexplicably at ease looking at the familiar environment. She wanted to borrow some money to make a phone call, but when she touched her pocket, she found a mobile phone in it——
It should be this woman named Vera!
Somewhat surprised, she opened her phone. Although she didn't know the unlock password, there should be a woman's selfie on the screen——
The selfie was taken by a woman holding a puppy on the balcony of her home.
The location of her home is...
Narrowing his eyes, Yin Yueli quickly focused on the landmark building - the Ferris wheel - that was revealed under the balcony glass.
"If you look at it from this direction... the Ferris wheel is on the west side of her house. You can take pictures of the Ferris wheel and the river from the balcony of her house..."
Calculating carefully, Yin Yueli asked a passerby to pick up two yuan because he had no money to take a bus, and then bought a map at a newsstand far away:
"From this shooting angle, you can see that there are two intersections between her home and Motian Road. Looking at the map, the two intersections should be Beihuan Road and Binjiang Road. There is only one community to the east, which is Hepingjiayuan. Then
The floor she lives on is..."
She estimated and found two lines on the photo that should have been parallel but were not parallel due to the angle of the shooting. After roughly estimating the intersection point, she calculated the height: "The height from the 18th to the 19th floor."
There is also a key in his pocket, which should be the key to Vera's house! Although the house number is not written on it, Yin Yueli believes that he has found a place to stay.
Pursing her lips nervously, she chose to walk "home". After first trying on the eighteenth floor and finding that the door could not be opened, she found Vera's home on the nineteenth floor.
As soon as she opened the door, a golden retriever looked at her warily, and then roared immediately.
Yin Yueli was a little scared when she walked in. She leaned down and tried her best to be friendly: "Dog, good dog, come here..."
However, the golden retriever is a good friend of human beings after all, and he doesn't accept life at all. He immediately became well-behaved after eating two handfuls of dog food from Yin Yueli's hands.
She looked at this unfamiliar environment and didn't know what to do for a moment.
At this moment, Vera's cell phone rang, and Yin Yueli was startled. He held the phone and didn't know whether to answer it or not.
"Hello?" In the end, she chose to cough twice to make her voice sound hoarse, and then answered the phone.
"What's wrong with your throat?" came a man's voice on the other end of the phone.
"I have a cold. Everyone has a cold these days," Vera found an excuse to excuse herself, and then asked, "Why did you call me?"
"I heard that you found a new job. Why, after resigning from my job, you found a new job very quickly, or are you trying to do two things?"
Boss? Or ex-boyfriend?
Listening to this tone, and the fact that Vera did not give this person a note, Yin Yueli thought it should be her ex-boyfriend and boss, so she immediately entered the role:
"What, do I have to report everything to you?"
"You!" The man hesitated, obviously very angry.
"By the way, do you remember the lock screen password of my mobile phone? I...had a plastic surgery in the past few days, and my face cannot be scanned."
"Did you really do it?"
"..."
Yin Yueli: Then let Vera work like me?
"Forget it, 2580, it was this before we broke up. I don't know if you changed it later."
"Okay, I'll hang up first."
"No, you..."
Before the man could continue speaking, Yin Yueli immediately hung up the phone. After entering the password, she didn't expect to unlock the phone. She looked at the miscellaneous icons on the desktop and felt mixed feelings——
I killed her.
Do I want to be her?
Pursing her lips and sitting up straight, Vera looked at the communication software on her phone. When she was about to check it, a memo popped up: "Keep a diary."
"journal?"
Who seriously keeps a diary?
It was a bit surprising, but also a bit gratifying. After all, this was probably the place where I could learn about the Pure Land and the Dirty Land most directly from Vera.
Opening the memo, it turned out that she had written down a diary every day according to the date. After finding the earliest entry, Vera curled up on the sofa and looked at it carefully:
"The earth is a prison, and each of us is a prisoner."
