"Where have you been recently? Zheng Gong has been looking for you, even coming to with questions. Ever since you left last ti, there’s been no news from you. If it weren’t for your sudden call this ti, I would have thought you’d disappeared. Thank heavens you’re finally back," Zheng Lan said as soon as they t, patting her ample chest before letting out a long sigh of relief.
"Really big."
Standing to the side, Lv Jue glanced over and was inwardly astounded.
"Zheng Gong was looking for ? I rember giving him a heads up before I left. Maybe it’s because this trip took a bit longer than expected and things have changed so much that it went beyond his predictions," Li Yi inquired, "By the way, was he very anxious to find ?"
"Very anxious, and not just once... It’s good that you’re back now. Later on, I suggest you make a trip down to the investigation bureau, he’s still working there," said Zheng Lan imdiately.
Li Yi said, "Alright, I’ll make a trip to the investigation bureau right after I finish moving houses."
"And this is..." Zheng Lan then turned her gaze to Lv Jue.
"His na is Lv Jue, he’s my friend. He’s helping move this ti, we ca over to take a look. By the way, how’s the renovation of the building going? Everything smooth, I hope?" Li Yi asked.
With a wry smile and a shake of her head, Zheng Lan said, "It was very smooth at first, but after too many things happened later on, not so much... Still, it’s fortunate that this building is well-located near AnDing District. Many people are willing to work here, after all, it offers job safety and security, plus I pay well... But in the end, I have managed to get the building basically ready."
"It’s a pity you were in such a rush, otherwise I could have added a few more floors for you."
"For now, as long as it’s practical, that’s enough. Oh, did you move the dical pods for my parents over here? Which floor do you think is best?" Li Yi asked, pointing to the two dical pods on the truck beside him.
Zheng Lan said, "The building has thirty floors. According to the previous plan, the thirtieth floor is for cultivation and use as a temporary resting room. The twenty-ninth floor is a personal recreation area... The other floors are for storage and unused space. Li Yi, I suggest we put your parents’ dical pods on the first floor."
"On the first floor? That doesn’t sound too good," Li Yi frowned and said.
Zheng Lan explained, "Since only your family lives in this building, putting them on the first floor makes it convenient for you to take care of your parents. You have to pass through the first floor every ti you enter or leave, which makes visiting and caring easier. If they’re on a floor with no people, you wouldn’t know if sothing happened, and it’s also not good to put them in the cultivation area, as the cultivation process can have energy anomalies which might interfere with the operation of the cultivation cabin."
That made sense to Li Yi when he heard it.
"Is there room on the first floor?"
"Of course, I designed a sunny room with great natural light. It could be considered for use as a living room most of the ti. There’s no problem at all in placing dical pods there now," Zheng Lan said.
"Great, then I’ll move the dical pods over there. Lv Jue, can you handle moving one by yourself?" Li Yi then asked.
Lv Jue said, "No problem, but I’ll be moving the one belonging to your father."
He dared not touch Li Yi’s mother’s dical pod again; who knew if Li Yi might suddenly undergo so terrifying, unknown change.
"Hmm?" Li Yi was puzzled but quickly nodded in agreent.
The two quickly moved the dical pods down from the truck.
"Follow ."
Zheng Lan imdiately led the way, adding, "I’ve equipped the building with many intelligent systems during the renovation. All the lights, doors, surveillance, even the elevators can be controlled intelligently. In a mont, I’ll give you a cellphone, Li Yi, with which you can control all the electronic devices in the whole building. I’ve heard that a company recently developed an intelligent life system, but the licensing is very expensive, in the billions. If it could be integrated, then the building’s security system could be upgraded significantly."
"Intelligent life? That’s sothing new," exclaid Lv Jue, quite surprised.
"I also heard about it from a colleague, it really exists. It’s far more advanced than the smartphone intelligence we used before. They say that the intelligent life system has the intelligence of a normal person and can communicate with you normally. It’s quite incredible," said Zheng Lan.
Lv Jue whistled, "The world sure is changing a lot."
"I’m afraid it’s not a technological product of our world," Li Yi’s eyes narrowed as he imdiately thought of the existence of the Cross-border.
Since there was a Cross-border Organization, there must be people who have successfully crossed over, just like himself, but so people didn’t enter a world of martial arts, but possibly a world of technology. In one of those technological worlds, getting an intelligent life system wouldn’t be difficult.
And after all, once you have one intelligent life, you could potentially replicate it endlessly.
"It’s possible. Ever since the Sky Tipping event, there’s been a lot of stuff that doesn’t belong to our world. It’s possible that soone picked up so high-tech artifact, analyzed it, and achieved a technological breakthrough," Zheng Lan nodded as she spoke, not directly thinking in terms of Crossing Borders but rather associating it subconsciously with the Sky Tipping event.
Shortly after,
The group entered the first floor of the building.
Here, the floor had already been laid with tiles, and under the illumination of the lights, it was bright and dazzling. Zheng Lan led them to a thick steel door, which she opened with facial recognition, revealing a spacious and well-lit room. The room also had a bathroom, storage space, and many green plants that gave off a warm and comfortable atmosphere.
"Quite nice," Li Yi comnted as he sniffed around.
