Chapter 428 The monster on the shoulder

What happened to Paulkin Walker broke the common sense that Chen Yan once knew. He didn't know what kind of knowledge he should use to judge what happened to this man.

Chen Yan could only silently take out his mobile phone, turn to the latest page of the notebook APP, type out Paulkin Walker's name, and then take a photo of the man when he wasn't paying attention.

This photo not only captures Pauline Walker, but also the monster on his shoulder.

Paulkin Walker has a bitter face, and the monster's expression is silly and ferocious. The photo of the two of them looks very weird.

"Why are you filming me?" Paulkin Walker frowned.

Chen Yan said unexpectedly: "Do you know this is a photo shoot?"

Paulkin Walker looked complicated: "Well..."

He took out a mobile phone from his inner pocket. From the appearance, the mobile phone was exactly the same as Chen Yan's previous functional phone.

"I don't know what happened..."

He unlocked his phone, turned on the camera, and "clicked" a photo of Chen Yan.

He was playing with his phone as if he were playing with a small toy.

"I got it some time ago...it came as a gift when I bought bullets. It's like a phone. It can make calls and doesn't need to be charged. It's very easy to use."

Hmm? A gift for buying bullets?

Could it be that... all mobile phones enter the hands of people participating in the mechanical ascension experiment through other channels besides sales?

Paulkin Walker and the monster on his shoulder looked at the tofu phone in Chen Yan's hand: "Is this a new model? It's very expensive, right?"

Chen Yan said perfunctorily: "It's okay...just leave your phone number."

Paulkin Walker's phone number is DTN-937653.

DTN is another new area code.

I don’t know what’s going on with these people who are doing mechanical ascension experiments. They always come up with these weird area codes. Chen Yan can’t guess what these three letters stand for.

The number following DTN, Chen Yan had previously guessed, was the serial number for participating in the mechanical ascension experiment.

According to Chen Yan's guess, Paulkin Walker may be ranked after 930,000 people. In other words, the entire Yanan... maybe the entire empire, or even the entire world, participated in the mechanical ascension experiment.

The number of people has exceeded 930,000.

Where did the mobile phones in the hands of so many people come from? It is certainly not fabricated out of thin air. Such a large number of light industrial products must have supporting light industrial production equipment, as well as related industrial knowledge, and a complete and mature production system.

process.

The industrialization of the empire had only begun for a few decades, so why did a mature mobile phone production line suddenly appear?

In this era of extremely backward light industry, what kind of price does it cost to research and manufacture such a production line?

The mobile phones produced by this strange production line are not ordinary light industrial products, but can synchronize with your body without your knowledge, and become your external limbs——

It's like one night when you are completely asleep, some unknown little thing that has both symbiotic and parasitic abilities comes to you, assimilates with you without physical contact, and becomes a part of your body.

And all of this, you can't control, you can't refuse, you can only accept it.

When did this all start?

Chen Yan doesn’t know, Paulkin Walker doesn’t know, and the vast majority of the 930,000 people who own mobile phones don’t know.

They only know that a mobile phone is a very useful tool that can bridge the distance of space and communicate with another person who has a mobile phone at any time.

No one will have a problem with something given away for free.

As more and more people own mobile phones, more and more people will have access to the Internet. Chen Yan couldn't help but think to himself that as a key link in the mechanical ascension experiment, what the "mobile phone" ultimately achieved was not actually "mechanical ascension".

” itself, but the Internet.

The control of the Internet is in the hands of the director. So, will the mechanical ascension experiment eventually become the director's wedding dress?

Or perhaps, the director was originally one of the implementers of the mechanical ascension experiment.

Chen Yan couldn't help but think of the series of different identities of the principal on the initial employment notice.

If his guess is true, the director's ability is too strong...

Various conditions restrict what a person can achieve in his or her lifetime, which is why most people have limited achievements in their lifetime.

But there are always a few geniuses who are not only talented, but also work harder than ordinary people. They also have the energy to put in huge efforts, and even have luck far beyond ordinary people.

The director is undoubtedly such a person.

People in this era have no idea what the Internet stands for, and the people who carried out the mechanical ascension experiment may not know it either.

But there is no doubt that the director must know.

The director knew, but the director didn't tell.

Until now, Chen Yan feels that what the director has done has exceeded "building the Internet" itself.

What exactly is the "new dawn" that the director calls?

Chen Yan and Paulkin Walker exchanged numbers and continued target practice for two hours before Jack Baldo came back.

It was past six o'clock in the afternoon, and it was time to eat. The shooting club provided members with a simple evening meal, and Chen Yan was happy to have dinner here.

"Pirates know everything."

In the dining area on the first floor, Paulkin Walker bit off half of a sandwich with bacon and raw onions, took a swig of mint water, and continued:

"People who couldn't make it in Yanan became pirates, people who were expelled by the Immigration Bureau became pirates, and all kinds of people from the other side of the sea couldn't make a living in Yanan and became pirates..."

"This makes the composition of pirates very complicated. They are from almost all ethnic groups, and there are many people who can cook. Those who are so poor that they can't even cook, how can they survive?"

"They couldn't go ashore before. They knew almost nothing and could only cause trouble, so they couldn't even take a shot. In order not to waste money on them, the Leprox Lane Street Police Department came up with one that can be reused.

Rubber bullets are cheap and deadly. The key is to save money and recycle them, so you don’t have to waste bullets on wastes like pirates.”

"But I don't know what happened, that is, what happened last weekend - the pirates suddenly had money - the pirates seemed to become rich overnight, and they entered Yanan City with an unprecedented gentleness and bought this piece of land.

Even the most ferocious gangsters in Xiacheng District of Yanan City did not dare to touch the land, and they opened this shooting club."

Chen Yan said:

"This piece of land is very good. It is located in Capone Alley, one of the most prosperous areas in Xiacheng District. I guess the hidden cost of opening a store here will be quite high."

He glanced at the bustling crowd around him.

“Who wouldn’t want to occupy a place with such a booming business?”

Jack Bardo chimed in:

"If you want to make money in Xiacheng District, it's useless just to have a prosperous business."

After Paulkin Walker finished his sandwich, he burped comfortably and lowered his voice:

"Yes, the more important thing is to take good care of the relationship with the various gangs, pay the protection fees that should be paid, and deal well with the rats in the gutter...those cults."

Jack Bardo reminds:

"The most important thing is paying taxes."

Paulkin Walker let out a deep laugh:

"Ha! Yes! That's more important than anything else!"

Chen Yan saw that before Paulkin Walker laughed, the monster on his shoulder licked his brain and showed an ugly expression of disgust.

Next, while going to the bathroom, Chen Yan asked Jack Baldo:

"Can you see that monster on Paulkin's shoulder?"

When Jack Baldo heard what he said, he had a look of enlightenment on his face:

"I can't see...no wonder he's a little weird these days!"

Chen Yan faced the dirty mirror in the bathroom and said while washing his hands:

"That thing is licking his brain and destroying his nerves. It seems to want to torture him, so the degree is very mild...it can make him suffer mentally without going crazy all of a sudden. I guess he can't sleep well at night because of this."

That’s why the dark circles under my eyes are so heavy.”

Jack Bardo's face turned serious:

"Good brother, we have to help him."

Chen Yan asked:

"Why should you help him?"

After he asked, he immediately said in unison with Jack Baldo:

"Because he is a good man."

Chen Yan looked at Jack Baldo's embarrassed expression and said with a smile:

"I have already asked him, told him about the existence of the monster, and made it clear to him that I can help him.

But he made it clear that he would not let me interfere."

Jack Baldo said in surprise:
