Jack decided to go and rescue Xin.
After all, for him, the biggest issue with the shelter now was cybersecurity.
A house that had achieved intelligence in the vast majority, once invaded by external networks, poses an unimaginable threat to Jack.
He considered this decision very carefully and did not make it with a slap in the head.
But before going, he also had to make detailed plans and collect intelligence before going.
After a night of turmoil, the next day Jack called Jennifer and Janice over to discuss the rescue plan together.
"Tell me about the current situation on her end."
Jack spoke cautiously to the two of them.
Janice looked at Jennifer and said, 'You should speak up!'
After all, Jennifer was Xin's cousin, and her relationship was closer than hers, so Jennifer knew more information than her.
Jennifer sat upright and said seriously, "Xin is trapped in T Academy."
T Academy was a leading aristocratic school in T City, not open to the public, and ordinary people had little understanding of it
This school was integrated from kindergarten to university, only nurturing the children of the privileged, and also admitting a very small number of geniuses.
After graduating, everyone inside was a seed player in both politics and business
Jack nodded, indicating that he was not unfamiliar with it.
Around 2050, education had achieved polarization.
The education levels received by ordinary people and the elite class, the elite class and the privileged class, were completely three parallel lines.
There would be no intersection between schools, faculty, or career paths after graduation. So some monopolistic educational institutions were born, namely aristocratic colleges.
Education might still have some impact on ordinary people, but it had lost its meaning for the truly upper class.
"If she were in school, how did a girl with disabilities in both legs survive until now?"
This was a question from Jack.
The population density in schools was so high that there were usually not many resources available.
If people fought against each other to obtain food, there was still a possibility of survival.
But that Xin, she had been a polio patient since childhood!
Jennifer said, "T Academy has its own special food supply channels, and the food stored in the warehouse is also very abundant."
Xin and the others hid in the school cafeteria, so they didn't starve to death
Jack nodded, which can also be justified.
"But I don't understand one thing. If she could contact the outside world, why didn't she contact you before, but have to wait until now? "This is something that Jack found very strange.
People in difficult situations must find ways to survive.
Anyone who can seek help would not be spared.
Why did you wait until almost two months after the end of the world to think about contacting the outside world?
Jennifer was also stopped by this question.
Her expression was somewhat hesitant, and a puzzled look flashed in her eyes.
"At that time, I was too worried to ask her. "she took out her phone." Let me give her a call now."
Jack nodded and looked at her quietly.
Jennifer opened the external voice in front of Jack and dialed the number.
Doo
Doo
Doo
"Sorry, the number you dialed is currently not answered. Please try again later."
Jennifer's expression was somewhat awkward as she said to Jack, "I also want to contact her again in the future, but it keeps reminding me that I can't get through."
Janice covered her mouth and sneered, "Don't think too much. Maybe she thought you were dead at first! That's why she didn't call you."
"Not really."
Jennifer glared at her angrily.
Jack rubbed the back of his left hand with his right palm and suddenly asked, "How far is T Academy from here?"
Jennifer pondered for a moment and replied, "About ten kilometers."
"Probably?"
Jack smiled helplessly, as this woman's grasp of distance left people unsure of what to say.
He took out his phone and began to search on the map.
Although the signal was poor and there were problems with satellite positioning nowadays, it was still possible to use the previous map to query the distance.
After a search by Jack, the answer was obtained.
T Academy was located in X District. The straight-line distance from Y Manor to there was 22.6 kilometers.
"It's a miracle that a phone call can be made at this distance once."
Jennifer and Janice suddenly realized.
"No wonder it's like this."
Jack looked at Jennifer and jokingly said, "But it's not ruled out that they might think you died first and be too lazy to call you."
Jennifer clenched her fists angrily and said, "No! I... at least I'm an adult too."
Jack stood up and said to the two people, "Come to the control room."
Ordinary mobile phones cannot transmit signals through Nebula's satellite chain, but that super server can.
Jennifer and Janice were both computer idiots, not as good as Jack in this regard.
The two obediently followed Jack to the control room.
Jack turned on the computer and dialed Xin using an internet phone.
Soon, a sound of electric current came from the computer, sizzling as if it had been strongly disturbed.
"It seems that they are in a place where the signal is very unstable."
Jack judged.
After a few seconds, a soft and cute voice came from inside: 'Who are you?'
After hearing the sound, Jennifer and Janice's faces showed excited expressions.
"It's Xin."
Jennifer quickly leaned over and said anxiously yet joyfully, "Xin, I'm your sister! Where are you now? Tell me quickly. Your sister will come find you soon."
The voice on the other end of the phone was intermittent and there was a lot of noise.
"I'm in the school cafeteria... it's very dangerous... take me away."
Upon hearing the words' danger ', Janice and Jennifer were both very nervous, and a serious gleam flashed in Jack's eyes.
Jack asked, "What's the danger?"
"Cats. They kill…"
The sound became increasingly chaotic, and the sound of electric currents made people's ears ache.
Jack frowned and planned to ask when, when suddenly a very eerie and terrifying voice came from there. That was not a roar that humans can make, extremely mournful and long.
Jack's three backs were covered in white sweat, and Jennifer and Janice were even more frightened, their faces turning pale, and they quickly slipped into Jack's arms. Immediately afterwards, they heard chaotic shouting coming from the other end of the phone.
"Hurry up."
"Monster, monster, monster…"
The voices of a group of people were filled with fear and despair.
And that mournful voice never stopped.
Jack even heard the sound of limbs being torn apart and bones being gnawed.
This sound was even more infuriating than what he heard when he lived in Y District!
Crackling... click…
Dudu, dudu…
The phone was suddenly hung up, leaving only the busy tone echoing anxiously.
