Dialogue
- (First interaction)
- Wen Shiqi: Let me double-check everything: research topic, no progress; report meeting, canceled last minute; performance criteria, under evaluation...
- Wen Shiqi: Good! Everything's in place! Now, this is the best time for scientific research.
- Wen Shiqi: Uh-huh... I don't think I've seen you before. Nevertheless, it seems to be our fate to meet each other like this, especially during the leisure time away from work.
You don't look very busy.
- Wen Shiqi: That's not true. How busy I am should not be judged by any existing projects, but whether any brainstorming is happening in my head. This is my work philosophy.
- Wen Shiqi: Although I may seem pretty leisurely, deep down I do care a lot about the space station's restoration after the Legion invasion!
- Wen Shiqi: Have you noticed how intertwined my eyebrows are right now? That's how much I care about the space station.
- Don't you have work to do?
- Wen Shiqi: What should be counted as work? Is it sitting behind a desk all day, devoting all your life to some random pieces of ill-defined data? Or racking your brain, trying to come up with a way to deliver convincing arguments for the sake of a performance review?
- Wen Shiqi: Outward appearance doesn't say anything about your work attitude. If your mind is not in work mode, how is it any different from slacking off at work?
- Wen Shiqi: Similarly, thinking about work during your break is What should be considered as true devotion to your work. You got it?
- (Continue onto dialogue options below)
- (Subsequent interactions)
- Wen Shiqi: We meet again. Are you here for a vacation this time? Feel free to take the seat next to me and have a break.
What have you got for sale here, then?
- (Opens World Shop)
I've got something to ask you.
- You look like someone from the IPC.
- Wen Shiqi: IPC? Let me remind you. I'm a Lv. 2 Researcher at the Department of Implement Arts, okay? Level 2! Can you even comprehend how much a Lv. 2 Researcher is worth? I'm just handling the internal purchase system for space station staff.
- Wen Shiqi: Can't help it. No rest for the capable. I'm notoriously popular around the Department of Implements Arts, so everyone leaves the important job of liaising with the IPC over to me!
- Internal purchase system? What's that?
- Wen Shiqi: You've come to the right place. That's my line of work. Just as the name suggests, it's a purchase system subcontracted to the IPC that's only available for space station staff.
- Wen Shiqi: There's some pretty cool and useful stuff in there, especially if you're doing research. It's just... The only currency it accepts at the moment is Hertareum.
- Wen Shiqi: And it's an exclusive supply, if you get my drift... The whole thing is designed to recycle Hertareum. You can't actually say that to anyone, though.
- What kind of research do you usually do?
- Wen Shiqi: Oh, come on, can you please not talk about work while I'm taking a break?
- Wen Shiqi: What? Are you saying this is working hours too? You are surprisingly stubborn. Do you think working hours and non-working hours are specified by a timetable? At this rate, your hairline will recede before you turn 30.
- Wen Shiqi: If all you want is to talk about research, just grab any researcher. Don't ruin my joy of slacking off.
I don't have any other questions.
- Wen Shiqi: Chatting is also a way of resting. Come chat with me if you are interested. I'll be very happy to talk about anything as long as it's not about research.
