Chapter 900: The Weather Cools, and the Lin Group Goes Bankrupt

The welcoming ceremony for the “new recruits” on Exodus seemed to have become a customary practice. The posthumans, who appeared exhausted and dusty from the outside, with their spirits and skin seemingly numb and cracked, were often comforted and taken care of by Silas in a gentle manner, starting from the most basic physiological needs such as food and sleep.

After enjoying a hearty lunch—during which Silas didn’t forget to remind Lin Sanjiu that if the number of people continued to increase, resources would soon become insufficient—they took a refres.h.i.+ng and invigorating bath. When the twin brothers reappeared, they were wearing a brand new set of sportswear and jogging pants. It was hard to tell them apart now.

The only thing that hadn’t changed was their dense hair, which stood on end and shot out in all directions. After was.h.i.+ng away the dust, their hair seemed to possess even greater vitality, vigorously pus.h.i.+ng into the air, resolutely a.s.serting their unwavering spirit.

“I have no idea what you guys look like,” Lin Sanjiu looked at the two of them as they pulled out chairs and sat down, pointing to her own hair. “Um, do you want to trim it a bit?”

“Is there any fundamental difference between the appearance of the face and the appearance of the b.u.t.tocks?” a hairy person spoke up, pulling out an oily pen from his pocket and scribbling a crooked “A” on his chest.

“They are just different parts of the body’s surface,” another hairy person took the pen, and just when Lin Sanjiu thought he would write “B,” he wrote an “A+.”

…So, even between brothers, there is a sense of compet.i.tion.

“You don’t ask what our b.u.t.tocks look like but care about our faces,” A turned to his brother, and from under a tangle of beard and hair, it was hard to tell if he was happy or not.

“Concern for the face, in a biological sense, is one of humanity’s instincts.”

“Hope you can realize your own animal nature in a timely manner,” the two of them said in unison, “don’t make things difficult for us.”

“After all, the hair and beard must never be shaved.”

Lin Sanjiu’s head was spinning from their words. She waved her hand and asked, “Why not?”

A and A+—such random names that felt incredibly strange when spoken—glanced at each other, pondered for a moment, and finally answered, “Originally, it was a trade secret—”

“But since you are the employer and have paid us in advance.”

“…mainly because of the salary,” A+ added honestly.

“We have decided to trust you.”

“These hairs are our ‘antennas,’ and most of the information we capture is done through the antennas.”

Lin Sanjiu almost jumped up from behind the table. She leaned closer to the table, her voice filled with disbelief, “Can you capture any kind of information?”

If that were true, then the hundreds of red crystals would have been well worth it!

“Not exactly,” A denied, “There is an effective range for information reception within our surroundings.”

“But if it exceeds that distance, we have to plant receiving antennas.”

“Receiving antennas?” Lin Sanjiu looked at them in bewilderment.

“In other words, we leave a strand of our hair behind.”

“Like how plants use birds to transport seeds,” the twins seemed a bit proud as they forgot about any secrecy.

“We use customers and people we meet to spread our hair.”

“It’s best if it gets fixed in a certain place,”

“But if it gets blown away by the wind, it’s also an opportunity to receive information from a new area.”

As a final conclusion, the twins sighed together, “Fortunately, we naturally have far more hair than ordinary people.”

Lin Sanjiu crossed her arms and leaned back in her chair, completely captivated by their abilities. After a moment of contemplation, she asked in a low voice, “So… after you entered Exodus, there’s no way to hide anything from you about its internal affairs?”

The two brothers fidgeted uncomfortably in their chairs.

They seemed to be bad at lying, and after a moment of hesitation, they finally said, “Ah, well, not everything…”

“Don’t make excuses.” Lin Sanjiu interrupted them, “You know someone named Silvan in the Munitions Factory, right?”

“Of course, we do.”

A+ added, “We’ve also seen the love letters sent to him.”

“They start like this…”

These two acted as if they couldn’t help but leak information from time to time due to the sheer volume they carried. Lin Sanjiu quickly declared, “Don’t tell me, I’m not interested in that!”

“You’re not interested?”

“Then why did you let Silvan stay at your place?” the hairy person named A asked, “He’s sleeping upstairs right now, isn’t he?”

They seemed to think that all women would be enchanted by that blond man.

“He’s just tired and needs rest… it’s not like he’s staying at my place! Anyway, that’s not the point,” Lin Sanjiu, who could still speak fluently in front of Silvan, was now blus.h.i.+ng due to the commotion, “The point is, tonight I’m going to sneak into the Munitions Factory with him. What kind of information can you tell me about the Munitions Factory?”

As it turned out, these two employees didn’t perform very well on their first day and their first a.s.signed task. The Munitions Factory was always heavily guarded and more closed off than other organizations. They tried a few times but only managed to leave a few strands of hair, most of which were blown to the neighboring area. Although they derived some results from a.n.a.lyzing the surrounding data and information flow, it wasn’t particularly significant, yet they didn’t seem to feel any embarra.s.sment.

Despite their poor performance on the task a.s.signed by their boss, they didn’t forget to a.s.sign a task to their boss.

“When you go, don’t forget to plant more of our hair.” The twins spoke while their hands were scratching through the tangle of hair. When they took their hands out, they were holding a thick stack of beard hair. “Here, take it.”

Lin Sanjiu reluctantly picked up the twisted black beard.

As she was pondering what other information she should inquire about, she suddenly saw the twins sitting up straight, and their hair seemed to expand like a circle exploding on their heads. Even though she couldn’t see their expressions clearly, she realized something was wrong, “What happened?”

“Some people,” the two of them answered in unison, “many people are rapidly approaching this place… about twenty or thirty… at least forty to fifty people, they are almost at the door!”

Lin Sanjiu’s heart tightened, and she stood up abruptly. She was about to shout and ask Silas about the situation outside when Silas spoke softly first, “The patients in the medical room have just awakened.”

Puppeteer was awake?

“There has been damage to one of the treatment pod doors. Mechanical maintenance personnel, please proceed to the medical room urgently. Repeat…”
