The first day I took over Qinggeng Station Zero, the main console turned on by itself.
A line of text popped up on the screen: "Entering the 849th cycle."
The coordinates point to the abandoned No. 7 Mine, three hundred meters away.
Lao Zhou said that the machine had been broken for ten years.
But he changed his tune. He said that Webmaster Zheng locked all the passwords before leaving, leaving only one sentence——
"There's something living in this station that we can't afford to feed."
I started checking.
There was a wire that was welded to death in the power distribution cabinet. The solder joint was charred and burned.
The ninth item in the equipment list was called out 6 hours before I signed the contract. The person who took the order wrote "system administrator".
And I am the only administrator of this site.
Later I learned that there was a chessboard twenty meters underground.
There are two meters per grid, horizontally and vertically, and they were not dug by humans.
There is a metal box squatting on the chessboard. There is a seed in the box with light blue lines on the seed coat.
That's not an earthly color.
But it's sprouting.
