Chapter 312 Vinyl Record Player
Lilith directly changed the listening channel to 444.4MHz, and then pressed the play button.
The friction sound that originally sounded very uncomfortable outside became louder. The sound was like countless pieces of rusty iron scraping against each other, and was mixed with sounds similar to fingers scratching a blackboard and a knife scratching glass. The same sound... Listening to these noises for a few seconds will make people feel extremely irritable. If they are played continuously in the ears for 24 hours, even people with the best tolerance may not be able to bear it. Stay crazy.
"These sounds are so damn unpleasant..." Lilith frowned, "Next, next!"
The three of them quickly listened to all frequency bands from 111.1MHz to 999.9MHz, and even tried "more special" frequency bands such as 123.4MHz and 987.6MHz.
Unfortunately, there are only nine frequency bands from 111.1MHz to 999.9MHz that can search for audio.
After repeatedly comparing the sounds of these nine frequency bands, the three finally locked on the 888.8MHz frequency band - compared with the sounds of other frequency bands, the sound of 888.8MHz is not necessarily the most normal, but it must be the most "exciting". Comfortable”.
This frequency band has been circulating a classical piece of music - Mozart's "Symphony No. 40 in G minor".
"Tsk, so classy?" Lilith couldn't help complaining, "It sounds like the shabby jacket I'm wearing is turning into a tuxedo."
"Speaking of which, where do you think this song should be played?" Lilith suddenly stood up and waved her right hand. A metal bucket on the ground suddenly flew up and hit the top of the workshop hard, making a loud sound. There was a loud noise.
"What are you doing?!" Jiang Yu suddenly became nervous, "What if that strange thing is attracted?"
"It would be great if we could attract it, so that we don't have to look for it." Lilith said nonchalantly, "If we could attract it this way, it would have been attracted long ago."
Jiang Yu noticed that there were some heavy objects with obvious signs of smashing scattered on the floor of the workshop. It was obvious that Lilith had already made a similar attempt before they found her.
"The place where music is played is not in this factory." Ling Xiao, who was listening with headphones, shook his head.
The music is not too loud. As long as the sound insulation of the room is good enough, the music can be completely blocked. But the noise Lilith just made was different - the bucket hit the load-bearing beam of the workshop. This load-bearing beam welded by 65 cm thick hollow steel pipes connected the steel structure frame of the entire factory. Such a huge The sound of collision can be heard even in a soundproof room.
But there is no suitable sound in the music played at 888.8MHz.
No matter how subtle it is.
"However, I heard some other sounds." Ling Xiao raised his head and said, "It seemed to be a very subtle sound of mechanical operation, and the same slight sound of friction... gears, rotating shafts... and a slightly vibrating metal cavity... …”
"Vinyl record player." Lilith interrupted him, "I have heard this thing no less than a hundred times in Chunming City... The sound of this song does come from that retro vinyl record player, not from a CD or It’s electronic recording... Damn it, where’s the vinyl record player in a factory that produces chemical products?”
"I...I may know the reason." Jiang Yu said weakly.
"You know you should say so." Lilith urged immediately.
"Before I came in, I glanced at the list of missing persons in the factory..." Jiang Yu said.
From the factory director to the cleaning staff, plus the security team and soldiers stationed inside the factory, there are more than 4,000 missing persons in Factory No. 105. It is naturally impossible for Jiang Yu to read the detailed files of these 4,000 people. Once - in fact, she only looked at the files of the factory director, technical engineer and garrison commander.
Fortunately, the answer they want seems to be in these files.
"The director of Factory No. 105 is named Wu Zhiyuan... there is a sentence in his file." Jiang Yu said, "It is said that he is a very enthusiastic classical music lover... but there is only one sentence. , as for the vinyl record player, there was no mention at all.”
"That's enough!" Lilith snapped her fingers, "Those who like classical music will definitely buy a vinyl record player... The entry-level vinyl record player only costs a few hundred yuan, and the better ones are also Just a few thousand... Unless it's a work of art or an antique record player, most families will buy it. If you can afford it, this guy won't be reported for corruption if he buys a record player... Coupled with the work pace of Factory No. 105, when he is the director, he probably spends 25 of the 31 days in the factory eating, drinking and living in the factory. , it makes sense for him to put the vinyl record player in the factory!”
"Should...right?" Jiang Yu said with some uncertainty.
"Then the next question is where is this record player." Lilith took out a palm-sized PAD from the interlayer of her clothes - although it cannot be connected to the Internet, things like the structural drawings of Factory No. 105, She had already downloaded it to the device before the mission started.
"I think there are two places with the highest probability. One is the factory director's office. This office has an area of more than 80 square meters. The front is the office area, and the part behind the partition wall is the living area. Wu Zhiyuan lives there. In this space of more than 80 square meters, the record player is probably located Here. Besides, the second most likely place is probably the reception room of the factory... Putting a record player in the reception room would not seem out of place at all... Maybe that guy can also sell office supplies In the name of using the money to buy the record player to invoice for reimbursement.”
"The factory director's office and reception room are both in Factory Building No. 5, separated by a corridor." Ling Xiao said.
"Let's go then. Instead of staying here and wasting time, it's better to go see what the hell that thing is doing."
"Go out through the ventilation duct?" Jiang Yu asked.
"Of course we go through the main door!" Lilith kicked open the glass door of the dust-free workshop.
"The door is too thick. I may not be able to open it with violence..." Jiang Yu said with some embarrassment.
"I didn't say I wanted you to take action, either?" As soon as Lilith finished speaking, the three of them suddenly teleported to the door. The next second, a bright flame ignited at Lilith's fingertips.
As if she were painting with her fingers dipped in paint, she used the flame to draw a sparkling circle on the two-meter-thick special alloy door.
With a loud bang, the part of the alloy in the circle fell outward and hit the ground.
A circular hole with a diameter of more than one meter appeared above the gate.
"Object control, teleportation, flames...what exactly are your abilities?" Ling Xiao looked at Lilith and asked.
He suddenly thought of Sun Hang.
Generally speaking, the abilities possessed by hunters are linked to their memes. Hunters with as diverse abilities as Sun Hang are extremely rare. In particular, these three abilities displayed by Lilith are completely incompatible. It is difficult to imagine that they will appear in the same hunter.
"I told you that my codename is Red-Haired Witch, so of course my ability is magic!" Seeing Ling Xiao's interest in her ability, Lilith said happily. "Magic?" Jiang Yu was slightly startled, "What is that strange thing that infected you?"
"I don't know either. It seems that I was not infected by a monster, but a spontaneous infection." Lilith said frankly.
Ling Xiao's pupils shrank slightly.
Spontaneously infected persons…
He remembered clearly that the woman he once called his mother was also a spontaneously infected person.
The so-called spontaneous infections are special individuals who produce strange memes on their own in the absence of a source of infection.
"I wonder if you have ever heard of a joke, that is, 'If you remain a virgin until you are thirty, you will change your profession and become a magician and gain the ability to use magic'?"
"Ah?" Jiang Yu paused, obviously not understanding what Lilith meant by mentioning this.
"I thought it was just a joke at first, but until the day of my thirtieth birthday, when I was preparing to light candles for my birthday cake, I tried to imagine how my fingertips would make flames. …Then, it really came out of me.” Lilith seemed happy to share her story of becoming an infected person with others. “The next day, the local Anomaly Investigation Bureau came to the door, and I was confirmed. For the infected... you should have gone through the following process once. ”
"Wait a minute...you said you should remain a virgin until the age of thirty..." Jiang Yu stuttered, "Are you...a man?"
"It used to be." Lilith showed a rather charming smile to Jiang Yu, "After I gained the ability, there was an additional message in my mind - 'Once the virginity is broken, the ability to use magic will be Disappeared, but I will not become a normal person because of this'... At that time, I was wondering if I could get a bug and still enjoy the kind of enjoyment that normal people can enjoy without violating this rule. ...'Happiness'"

"So... you're going to... change your gender?" Jiang Yu looked at Lilith dumbfounded.
"A joint effort between the best transgender surgeon in former Siam and the best plastic surgeon in former Southern Silla... How about this body I have now, isn't it very charming?" Lilith asked, posing.
"...Then...then you..." Jiang Yu asked with a red face, "Have you done it?"
"Of course, what I lost was just my virginity and not my virginity." Lilith shrugged, "After that, my ability to use magic was also retained, and my life was not so boring that I could only have sex with the five-fingered girl. Isn’t it nice to have company?”
Jiang Yu suddenly thought... No wonder when she heard classical music just now, Lilith said that the leather jacket she was wearing was going to turn into a tuxedo, instead of the corresponding dress skirt for women...
Who would have thought that the "red-haired witch"... turned out to be a man.
"Correction, I was once a man." Lilith seemed to be able to guess what was going on in Jiang Yu's head and said directly, "Except for being infertile, I am no different from a woman... Oh, I still have One advantage is that my appearance will never age and I will always look like this until I die.”
"Uh..." Jiang Yu didn't know what to say.
"The taste of the witch is very good." Lilith hooked Jiang Yu's chin with her slender index finger, "How about it, do you want to try it?"
"No, no need!" Jiang Yu jumped back a big step as if he was electrocuted, shaking his head repeatedly.
"What about brother Ling Xiao..."
Lilith turned to look at Ling Xiao, but Ling Xiao just stared at the highly heated metal at the edge of the hole and said, "Since you can use magic, there should be a way to lower the temperature of the metal, right?"
The door is two meters thick. To be precise, the hole should be closer to a pipe. If you want to drill through it, you will inevitably touch the inner wall of the pipe... And at this temperature, if you drill directly, it will be difficult. It’s no different than roasting a living person.
"Yes, yes..."
"So you were wasting your time just now?" Ling Xiao turned around and stared at Lilith.
"Sister, I'm a little curious. Is this cold personality of yours innate...or is it deliberately pretending to attract your sister?" Lilith asked.
"If possible, please cool down the metal immediately." Ling Xiao said, "Even if the time in the other world flows very slowly, we should not waste it at will."
"Okay, okay." Lilith said in a doting tone. With a gentle blow, a stream of white gas instantly penetrated into the pipe.
The moment this white gas appeared, a layer of white frost condensed on the surrounding ground, and a biting chill made Jiang Yu shiver subconsciously.
As the white gas entered the pipe, the red and shiny metal immediately dimmed. At the same time, some subtle crisp sounds also came from the inside of the alloy door.
Ling Xiao stepped forward, tested the temperature with his hands, and then got in.
Lilith and Jiang Yu also followed immediately.
After passing through the pipe, the three of them finally arrived outside the factory building. However, a ray of light that shouldn't have appeared escaped from one side. Jiang Yu turned around and couldn't help but froze on the spot.
A sunset is slowly sinking into the horizon - although the sky is already pitch black, close to the horizon, the afterglow of the setting sun is still releasing its last rays of light.
In other places, this is a common sight...but in Shuzhou, the appearance of the sunset can definitely be regarded as breaking news.
If Jiang Yu had doubts about the other world's claims before, now her doubts have been completely dispelled.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... I didn't expect that the other world actually has day and night. It's interesting." Lilith said with her hands on her hips, looking at the sunset in the distance.
"There is still no signal in the communication equipment, no trace of drones was found in the sky, no troops or field operators were found outside the factory park, and no abnormal time and space fluctuations were noticed." Ling Xiao was like a robot, using his voice without any emotion. The tone said, "We are still in the world just now."
