Galactic Garbage Station Chapter 340-343

Su Jing got on Yang Xiao's car and drove to the city, he entered a building and opened the bas.e.m.e.nt door and several people went on. Yang Xiao walked and said, "Oh, there's one thing I forgot to tell you, if you can't help us, we won't force it. But we will send someone to monitor you. All the information here must be kept absolutely confidential, It would be a felony if you were found to have leaked anything."

"I understand." Su Jing nodded, not minding this.

While talking, they went down to the back room and they saw two women and a few men sitting on a table. Some of them were using computers, some were looking at the materials, and when they saw Yang Xiao, they all stood up and saluted. There is only one girl who looks 17 or 18 years old and is a little smaller. She is still sitting and playing with the computer as if she doesn't see Yang Xiao.

"Let me introduce you. This is Su Jing, my hired helper." Yang Xiao introduced.

"Help?" All of them were stunned. They looked at Su Jing up and down. A woman in shorts and a T-shirt asked, "What is he good at?"

Their special task force usually consists of the member who is familiar with each other. They seldom ask for help from outsiders unless they have a very special ability. For example, the pet.i.te girl who is still playing on the computer.

"I can't say specifically. Mr. Su might as well introduce himself." Yang Xiao turns to look at Su Jing.

"My physical fitness is good, and I'm also a beast tamer." Su Jing said that and Yang Xiao, the long-legged policewoman, the middle-aged man in an overcoat, and the old man with thick gla.s.ses were stunned and their mouth twitched slightly. His Physical fitness is good and he is a Beast Tamer. Isn't that what Yang Xiao said before? This guy is repeating Yang Xiao's words. What's the use of this introduction?

"Beast Tamer?" Everyone was surprised, even the pet.i.te girl playing with the computer looked up at Su Jinh and continue to bow down.

"Mr. Su, let's go straight to that point and I will tell you what the problem is. Please explain to me if you can help me or not." Yang Xiao thought about it and said that as Su Jing was invited by himself. In addition to Su Jing's ability, it is also because according to Su Jing's information, his background and experience are very clean, his conduct is also honest and kind, which is worth believing once.

"Jian Hu" is a woman in shorts and a T-shirt. She puts a stack of information in front of her and quickly explains the situation to Su Jing. Su Jing 's heart was beating wildly. He didn't expect to be involved in these kinds of situations which are related to national security and it is such an important thing. Until then, this kind of thing can only be seen in the movies.

This problem. It can be called an impossible task. If it was not the case, they would not have risked inviting himself here. After all, he has no special training and there are many unknown factors.

Simply put, some secrets of national defense agencies have been stolen. Two spies were caught, but not much information was obtained. After investigation, they could only confirm that these two may be from the MI6. There are also some spies hidden in national defense or other agencies. If they are not caught as soon as possible, they may cause indelible losses.

Now, it is natural that the country is investigating further and trying to find out the spies. Yang Xiao's task is to get a spy list from MI6.

"Wait, MI6, why do I seem to be … I remember it, James Bond, 007." Su Jing was surprised.

"Hehe, MI6 also exists in reality, or is the prototype of the movie." Yang Xiao said.

"It's hard to get the spy list from MI6." Su Jing said thoughtfully.

"Nonsense, it's almost impossible." In fact, when they received this task, they were all stunned and thought that their bosses were going crazy. Who can accomplish this task?

"Do you have a computer master?" Asked Su Jing

"This is it." Yang Xiao refers to the little girl still playing computer.

"She?" Su Jing is shocked. This girl looks like she hasn't even graduated from high school yet.

"She just looks small. She's in her twenties. Besides, she used to be a super hacker that gave us all a headache for a while. Don't look down on her. " Yang Xiao laughs.

"That good?" Su Jing glanced at the pet.i.te girl as he spoke.

"What do you ask? How can MI6's intelligence be obtained by hacking alone? Even Little Ti has to insert a USB virus into their computer in order to obtain information," said the fit woman.

"That's it, that's easy," Su Jing said.

"It's easy … Do you even know where the problems are? MI6 is heavily guarded. In addition to the security and special agents inside, there are also gate pa.s.swords, fingerprint authentication, pupil authentication, infrared sensors, gravity sensors, and many other barriers. Easy?" Said the fit woman angrily. This guy really doesn't know anything. Does he really think that MI6 is his backyard?

Yang Xiao, the long-legged policewoman, the middle-aged man in a coat, and the old man with thick gla.s.ses also felt that Su Jing probably didn't hear it clearly, otherwise, he wouldn't say such a thing.

"If you don't think so, I will be responsible for plugging in the USB and bringing it out, and the rest will be left to you." Su Jing said. Everyone waited and their mouths twitched, this guy has a problem in his brain, he is going to plug the USB into the MI6 computer and bring it back?

"Captain, where did you find such a clown, can this guy even help?" The fit woman said to Yang Xiao.

"Mr. Su, were you just kidding?" Yang Xiao said.

"How can I make a joke about such an important thing. How about this, we do an experiment and you choose a place that is as guarded as MI6. I will take a USB to get some information and come out." Su Jing said.

"We're so heavily guarded that you can't even get through the first gate." Said the fit woman.

"This is a waste of our time," The middle-aged man said.

Yang Xiao looks at Su Jing, who is full of confidence, but he is thoughtful. He is not clear about Su Jing's ability. However, from the "Spider-Man" and "bullet ant" stunt pulled by him, he obviously has some skills that ordinary people don't have. Yang Xiao thought for a moment and said, "OK, I'll experiment with you. If you can do it then I will toast to you."

Expect for the long-legged policewoman, the middle-aged man in an overcoat and the old man with thick gla.s.ses, others think it's a waste of time, but since it's the captain's order, they can only listen. So they chose a place and spent half a day preparing and guarding it. Su Jing's helper was only a little girl who was a computer expert. (To be continued ~ ^ ~)

"Ready?" In a high-end building, Yang Xiao asked.

"Ready." The rest of the team stood in line and answered.

"Very good. You go to your post to watch. Don't even let a fly in." Yang Xiao said.

"Yes." All the people scattered and guarded the entrances. Yang Xiao entered the secret room, stored the data in the computer, and then came out. The first door requires swiping card and pa.s.sword, the second door is a light point capture system, the second door also requires fingerprint authentication and pupil authentication, there are gravity sensors and dense infrared inside the chamber, and even flies can't fly in. Any touch will sound an alarm.

This is a high-tech experimental building. Yang Xiao and his boss are friends, so they can borrow it for experiments. Of course, that friend can also use it to test the security of the building.

In fact, even if Yang Xiao and others guard it personally, the security here is naturally not as good as MI6, but Yang Xiao and others knew in advance that Su Jing was going to break in and they only gave him half a day, which was very bad for Su Jing. Therefore, in general, this is also an impossible task. Even they can't break in to steal secrets.

"Little Ti, is this distance enough?" Su Jing and the little girl are standing on the building next door. Su Jing already knows her name - Su Ti, who has the same surname as himself. Maybe they were of the same family many-many years ago.

"That's enough. The signal is good. Just plug in the USB." Su Ti sits on the ground, the computer is on her lap as she looks up at Su Jing and grinned before saying, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, Sister Liao Hu and others are all very good. You're going to get beaten up."

"Thank you for reminding me but don't worry and wait here, I will plug in the USB soon, and you can copy the information as soon as possible." Su Jing smiled.

"OK." Su Ti made an OK gesture.

Su Jing went downstairs and came near the experimental building. Sitting in a cafe, he ordered a cup of coffee and slowly drank it. At the same time, an Emperor Dragonfly was released from the Spirit Beast bag. Then he controlled the Emperor Dragonfly and flew towards the laboratory, carefully detecting a Foreign Terrain inside and outside the laboratory. He finally figured out the position of Yang Xiao and others and he also figured out the drain sewer position. However, he was not able to enter the secret room where the secret files were hidden, because the only entrance was the air outlet, except for the occasional wind. There are screens with very fine mesh to prevent anything from coming in.

Su Jing controlled the Emperor Dragonfly to fly back to the cafe and he took out the paper and drew a simple map and worked out a plan. Then from the many animals in the Spirit Beast bag, two other animals were selected which were the termites and King Cobra. They were purchased some time ago. It would have been too hard for him to catch a King Cobra by himself so he chose to buy it. Termites can be caught everywhere, but Su Jing chose particularly good termites.

Su Jing first controlled the King Cobra and let it bring the USB, the Emperor Dragonfly and the group of termites will enter from the sewer. The reason why Emperor Dragonfly is not carrying the USB is that the USB is too heavy for the Emperor Dragonfly, and it cannot fly too fast if it is carrying a USB. The USB is big and easy to spot. Therefore, it is better to let King Cobra shorten the distance.

In addition, King Cobra can sense infrared rays and can "see" the infrared rays directly to avoid them. Although King Cobra crawls against the ground and Emperor Dragonfly also flies, the probability of encountering infrared rays is very low, but it is still possible to encounter them so he is going to avoid them.

After arriving at the interior, he controlled his animals to drills into the air outlet channel and arrives at the dense room screen window, then the termites were put down and they climb on the screen window. Then they began to destroy the screens. They could spit out chemicals such as formic acid for corrosion. The termites cultivated by Su Jing were even more amazing. It didn't take long for the screen window to corrode.

Su Jing first controls the Cobra to sense the more intensive infrared ray in the secret room and he remembers their location, then he controls the Emperor Dragonfly and took the USB and drills in from the corrosion breach, he enters the secret room while never touching anything and directly inserts the USB into the computer. In this way, any gate pa.s.sword, fingerprint identification, pupil identification, infrared sensing, and gravity sensing are all avoided.

"Oh!" Su Ti suddenly noticed that the computer was responding, it was a sign that the USB was plugged into the computer, but after a long time, there was no movement in the experimental building, so it was a success?

Su Ti is surprised, but there is no multi-channel. Through "USB" in the computer, she controls the computer in the secret room and downloads the specified data. Of course, it's not really any secret data. It's just something written by Yang Xiao and others that they only know.

"Done?" Su Jing called Su Ti.

"It's done, but how do you do it…" Su Ti asked incredulously.

However, Su Jing has already hung up because he is concentrating on controlling the Emperor Dragonfly, Termites, and King Cobra, and retreating from the original path, returning to the sewer entrance next to the cafe, and loading them back into Spirit Beast Bag.

Then Su Jing and Su Ti walked directly to the door of the laboratory.

"You're going to sway in and steal information like this?" Standing at the gate were a fit woman and a young man. When they saw Su Jing coming this way, they suddenly felt like they were being played.

"No, I already got the information," Su Jing said.

"Bulls.h.i.t." Both the st.u.r.dy woman and the young man shouted.

"It's true." Su Ti said while turning on the computer to showing the content to them, there was a paragraph left by the two of them in the information that had just been stolen. They wrote it in a random way, only they had read it themselves, and only they knew what they have written. However, at this moment, their note which should be safe is appearing on this computer.

"How is that possible!" The st.u.r.dy women and young men were completely shocked, unbelievable, and said, "Little Ti, did you hading and stole the information?"

"That computer was originally not connected to the Internet, how could I steal the data directly? How can I steal the data without inserting the wireless network card? Without a virus, I would not be able to crack the pa.s.sword so quickly," Su Ti said.

"That means …" The st.u.r.dy women and young men glared at Su Jing as if they wanted to eat Su Jing alive. Although unbelievable, they contacted Yang Xiao and others through a pager, and Yang Xiao and others quickly ran down.

"The information has been stolen? How is it possible?" Everyone waited with a look of surprise. They didn't notice any movement, no one saw any figure, and no one was attacked. All the entrances were still closed and no alarms were triggered, and they thought that Su Jing hadn't even started yet.

However, the information has been stolen. They couldn't believe it. As a member of the Special Task Force, they have never seen or heard of such a magical skill. Is Su Jing a ghost? (To be continued ~ ^ ~)

The next day, Su Jing, Yang Xiao, and others went to the UK together and returned within two days.

The task was successfully completed, but Yang Xiao and others were a little bit confused as to how exactly did the task was completed because they basically did not contribute during the whole process, they just drove the car, arranged the hotel, bought the air ticket, and did other small things which was almost like traveling. Su Ti did some important work by using a computer to crack pa.s.swords to steal data. Until now, they didn't know how Su Jing did it.

"Mr. Su, thank you so much for this time." Before leaving the airport, Yang Xiao thanked him again.

"Mr. Yang is very polite. I just landed a hand. It 's a glorious thing to contribute to our country's security. However, I hope Mr. Yang can do what you promised. Don't investigate me anymore. I just trained animals and it would not be worth your time," Su Jing said.

"Haha, can only cultivate animals, to this I reserve my opinion. But you can rest a.s.sured that I won't investigate you anymore and will try to put in a good word for you. Of course, if you can take the test and join the Special Task Force, it would be much better." Yang Xiao nodded and said.

"That's unnecessary. I'm used to being free and lazy. Joining the action group is not my thing as I may break the rules and then both parties will be in trouble. If there is nothing else, I will leave first." Su Jing stopped a cab and hitched a ride home.

"How the h.e.l.l did this guy do it." The st.u.r.dy woman was still suspicious.

"Don't think about it, those people at MI6  found about their stolen information an hour later. I'm afraid we can't even imagine it unless he tells us," A middle-aged man said.

"Don't think about it, let's go back to the base," Yang Xiao said.

At the same time, w.a.n.g Xuanji of the main w.a.n.g Family received a call and heard the news that Su Jing a.s.sisted in completing the task and he couldn't help but praise: "Good job, this A'Jing is truly extraordinary."

"It looks like he really has something to do with that Spider-Man incident." A gentleman in a robe beside him laughed.

"It's okay if he is related, he was just saving people and not doing anything illegal. Help me contact the Special Task Force and say that Su Jing is under my protection. Stop investigating him. If anything goes wrong, I'll take care of it. "

"Master, is this appropriate?"

"There is nothing wrong with it, I believe in A'Jing. This time A'Jing has even helped them so much, presumably, they would also not do anything, I am just using my face to make them do so."

Su Jing returned home and he first went to the s.p.a.ce-time Garbage Station to see if there is any new garbage in it. Although his mobile phone has an alarm in it, he was still worried about whether there will be no response due to signal problems while abroad. Fortunately, the Garbage Station was empty and no trash was dumped during the time when he went abroad. 

Su Jing returned to the third floor and continued to organize. The willows, mulberries, and bamboos were transplanted into the yard and the third floor became much more empty. He can grow more vegetables, orchids, ginseng, and other rare plants here. Especially vegetables, he can eat more and more and it's even fine if he feeds his pets.

"Oh!" Su Jing glanced at the hive and was surprised to find that the bee eggs had finally hatched. The bees' eggs are milky white and bananshaped. It sticks to the bottom of the hive in an upright form. It usually takes a normal bee 3 days of incubation to rupture and hatch into larvae. However, he doesn't know whether the bees from the "Desolate Era» Universe" are different or because they are different. It took them more than ten or twenty days to hatch into larvae.

Su Jing counted about thirty or forty larvae. They were worm-moon-shaped and had links on their body surface.

Su Jing didn't know what to do next, so he went online and found that there were worker bees and male bees, and the fertilized eggs developed into worker bees or queen bees, while the unfertilized eggs developed into male bees. Of course, they could not be separated for the time being.

The larval stage is an important turning point in the decision to become a queen bee and a worker bee. The larvae eat royal jelly for the first three days, but the worker bees feed on honey and pollen after three days, and the queen bee feeds on royal jelly for the rest of her life. Royal jelly has high nutritional value, so the queen's reproductive organs are fully developed and have the ability to lay eggs. Worker bees are busy all their lives and have a much shorter lifespan than queen bees. The queen bee's larval stage is five days, the worker is six days, and the Drone(A drone is a bee honey bee) is seven days. When the days are up, they are capped and develop into maggots.

After knowing it clearly, Su Jing went to buy honey, royal jelly, and a beehive. He plans to try to cultivate three queens. In fact, with so few bees, it's enough to cultivate one queen, but he's worried about failure, so he prepared two spare tires. After all, these bees are from the "Desolate Era Universe and can't be replaced by a bee queen of earth.

Su Jing did not feed them himself but controlled a group of bees to feed this group of larvae. Feeding them himself might accidentally hurt the larvae, and it was perfect for the bees to feed them.

"These three peach cores have also germinated." Su Jing looked at the peach cores in three flowerpots and found that all three had germinated. It is now winter in November and this is not the season for walnuts to germinate. He now knows that it's not too late for the peaches of the "Desolate Era Universe to sprout. Besides, it seems that the slag of spirit stones soil can also remain unaffected by the season. So, Su Jing doesn't care about the season and grows them directly.

"In my arms, in your eyes, the spring breeze is drunk there, and the green gra.s.s is like there …" His cell phone ringtone suddenly sounded and Su Jing took out his cell phone and looked at it. It was Boss Lin Hao and he immediately answered.

"A'Jing, are you home?" Lin Hao asked.

"Where are you, boss?" Su Jing asked.

"At work, how can you be so leisurely. Looks like you haven't been on QQ for a few days, you know that Teacher Lin is getting married in half a month, right?"

"How should I know if you don't tell me." Su Jing said after remaining silent for a moment, Teacher Lin was his Headteacher in college. He was young at the time, only 27 or eighteen years old. At that time, he was in love with a female teacher who was in school, and now he finally achieved positive results and is about to step into the marriage hall.

"Are you going to join? I guess Teacher Lin will call you in person."

"If there is nothing important then I will go."

"That's good, I'll go too. We can go together at that time. Many students haven't seen each other for a year or two and we can have a small reunion at that time." At this time, Su Jing's cell phone sounded with an alarm and Lin Hao was surprised, "What is that sound?"

"It's a notification alarm, I suddenly remembered something important, I will talk to you later." After hanging up the phone, Su Jing took the pets and quickly ran to the first floor. As usual, after detecting it with his spiritual force, he opened the door to the stairs and got in and then closed.

Entering the sealed room with eight trigrams stone, he came to the top of the eight trigrams stone and pressed his hand and enter the Garbage Station, he saw a vortex over the sky and huge amount of garbage is being poured down, the sound of falling was deafening. (To be continued ~ ^ ~)

Chapter 342 New Trash

There was a great rumbling sound and huge garbage was continuously being dumped down. It only took three minutes to stop and the vortex slowly disappeared, and the garbage on the ground was eight or nine meters high, covering an area of ​​more than two hundred square meters creating a hill-like structure. Among the garbage was dust, tattered costumes, tattered Porcelain, rusty broken swords, crushed stones, waste paper …

As usual, Su Jing is not in a hurry to pick up the garbage, but he still keeps the pets around him and released his spiritual force to sweep the entire garbage dump. Of course, even if his spiritual force is very advanced, he still can't detect such a large amount of garbage carefully in a short time and he can only scan it roughly to confirm whether there are any large creatures.

"Uhh?"

Su Jing suddenly detected that something is crawling away in the garbage dump, he walks forward and used his gloved hands to pick up the garbage, he flips a lot of soil-covered clothes and reveals a long black-red flat creature. The moment he saw this, Su Jing's pupils contracted, and he jumped back.

That is a centipede!

Of course, Su Jing wouldn't be afraid if it was a normal-sized centipede, but this is definitely not an ordinary centipede, because it is as big as a palm, more than one meter long, red and black and it looks very permeable.

Needless to say, this is certainly not a creature of the earth. No matter where on earth it lives, no matter what it eats, it cannot grow to such a large size. It will definitely shock the world if released to the World.

Startled, the centipede quickly went further into the garbage, how could Su Jing watch it escape like this, otherwise it would be bad to be bitten by it. Su Jing immediately releases his spiritual force and penetrate the brain of the giant centipede. Fortunately, the centipede spiritual force is not very strong and it is easily hypnotized by Su Jing. Su Jing controls the centipede and lets it crawl into a box. He'll think about what to do with it later.

"I don't know what world this garbage is from for it to have a centipede so large." Su Jing thought and released his spiritual force again to reconfirm that there were no other large creatures in the garbage pile and then he started to sort them out.

He picked up a sword—it was broken, he picked up a piece of Porcelain—it was also broken, he picked up a gourd—it was empty … It took him more than a day and then some to get through all the trash. The cla.s.sification was established and there was no single thing that seemed valuable at first glance.

This made Su Jing nervous, would it really be pure garbage this time? However, even when being nervous, he did not give up hope on this garbage, his past experience has proven that treasure will likely be found in this garbage heap. As long as he continues to look and have a vision.

"What are these waste papers."

Su Jing can be considered to have rich experience and it is very clear that there is usually text on waste paper and text means information. If he can confirm what the world this garbage is from. Then it would be easier to find the treasure in the garbage.

Sitting next to a small pile of waste paper that he had collected, Su Jing turned them over one by one and began to read, and the contents disappointed Su Jing. This small stack of paper is basically practice methods for something or they are written incorrectly. There is not much useful information on it. He really wants to say that there are only two papers with barely enough information.

First, there was a piece of paper that was half-written because the words were slanted and torn off, claiming to be a "Disciple", and he can estimate that there were martial art schools in that world; The other paper mentions a place name- Teng Family City.

However, based on these two pieces of information alone, Su Jing couldn't tell what kind of world it was. There are many martial arts in many worlds and there are probably many more Teng Family City.

"I can only sort them out slowly and search slowly, I hope that there is at least one treasure in it." Su Jing thought this way and sorted out the garbage a second time. First, he piled up the largest pile of garbage which consist of tattered costumes and he put them on one side as he planned to collect them as usual. However, Su Jing noticed that two or three costumes were not only tattered but they were also stained with blood and even a few pieces of flesh were stuck on them. It looks like someone wore them as they got cut apart by a sword. Su Jing planned to draw these clothes down later, and then throw them away, otherwise, it would be too difficult to wash.

Then, he plans to start with large pieces, the largest of which is a dozen large stones. These large stones are in tatters, but they should be cuboids, about one meter long, about half a meter wide and about 0.25 meters high. Some moss has grown on them, which means that these should be the stones that were taken from stone steps.

Su Jing was displeased that they were in the way and he directly opened the door of the first floor and moved them out. In any case, he needs to further repair the courtyard. Although these stones are broken, they seem to be made of good materials and they can be used to pave the ground.

He only moved three pieces when the two parrots flew over and one of them called: "There is a guest, a guest came, his name is Shen Hong."

Su Jing froze for a while, but he was soon left speechless. Although he said that Shen Hong was very knowledgeable and had a high level of knowledge treasure appraisal and he had also helped a lot of times, but he shouldn't run to his place for three days in a week. It was only a few days ago that he came here to see the landscape paintings, this guy was still thinking about his own Hainan Yellow Sandalwood, wasn't he?

He heard another call, "There is another guest. His name is Tang Hao."

Su Jing froze again. There are many things about the ceramic auction. Occasionally, he has to discuss with him and it's normal for Tang Hao to come to him, but it's strange when he comes with Shen Hong. Do they know each other?

With doubt, Su Jing closed the first-floor door first and then walked up to open the gate. Both Shen Hong and Tang Hao stood at the door. Su Jing laughed: "Mr. Tang, Mr. Shen, what brings you guys here and you even came together"

"It's a long story." Tang Hao glanced at Shen Hong, showing a hint of helplessness.

"Come in," Su Jing invited.

"Mr. Su, you're too unkind." Shen Hong said with a grudge-like look, as he walked in, "We also know each other, knowing that I like ceramics the most, you found a shipload of Ceramics, but you didn't tell me. Your hexagon bottle is worth millions, but I can't afford that."

Su Jing glanced at Tang Hao with a questioning look. Tang Hao shrugged and said, "I didn't tell him. He saw the publicity information on the auction floor, and he insisted that it was the same batch as your hexagon bottle. "

"The ship's ceramics were picked up from the nearby waters. The age, background, and degree of seawater erosion are exactly the same as those of Mr. Su's treasures and your hexagon bottle. If it is not the same batch, I will not believe it. Only Mr. Su can be so lucky to found so many treasures and I only thought that it was you who picked it up." Shen Hong a.n.a.lyzed it in an orderly manner.

"It's a waste of Shen Old Mister's talent, you should have become a detective." Su Jing couldn't help but feel like laughing and crying at the same time but didn't deny it, he also didn't tell Shen Hong anything further and asked, "I don't know what ceramic Shen Old Mister fancy?"

"Mr. Shen's favorite is a set of teapots and cups, which cost about 200,000 yuan," Tang Hao said.

"Can it be sold separately?" Su Jing asked.

"That set of teapots and cups is not in the advertis.e.m.e.nt. We just need to tell the auction house and they can sell them separately," Tang Hao said.

"Then how about selling them to Mr. Shen for 200,000?" Su Jing laughed.

"You have the final say." Tang Hao nodded with a smile.

"Hey, it's not bad, you guys do have a conscience, and it was worth my time to help you identify for free so many times." Shen Hong suddenly smiled and went down to the first floor while talking, Shen Hong looked at the few mossy stones and his eyes settled. (To be continued ~ ^ ~)
