Chapter 150: Chapter 150
The older researcher in the team sighed:
"This student, you can’t aim too high when doing things—your professional span is too broad, and you didn’t have any foundation before. Even if you come to learn, you won’t learn much."
"Moreover, many things involve confidentiality, and the exhibition event later is also very important. There’s no way to entrust it to non-professionals outside the team."
The other party had a sincere expression:
"Why don’t you go to the front? There are some civilian research teams; they would probably welcome enthusiasts like you." ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel(ꜰ)ire.net
If she had a 40-meter machete in her hand at the moment, she might have chopped the researcher and the exhibition stand into pieces!
But unfortunately, weapon control in Zheng Country is too strict, and she lacks the courage.
Chu River finished the last sip of green bean ice slush with a bit of regret:
"Alas, I said I would come to make a fuss myself, but I didn’t get the chance... How can one become so skilled at self-inflicted humiliation?"
Little Yellow was bewildered:
"Sis, what are you talking about?"
He eagerly tossed Chu River’s empty cup into the nearby trash can and, as he returned, couldn’t help tugging at his shirt collar.
Chu River noticed his expression and suddenly frowned:
"What’s wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?"
"No!" Little Yellow quickly put his hand down: "I don’t know why, but I just feel a bit of chest tightness."
Estimated to be due to impending rain outside.
The time spent preparing the exhibition stand was both anticipated and felt long.
However, when it arrived, it seemed particularly swift.
After 9:00, buses arrived one after another outside the venue, quickly bringing in visitors from the city.
Among them were groups organized by elementary and middle schools; just a group of chatty students in yellow hats took up several buses.
Not to mention the older folks joining the fun, the young enthusiasts, families with children, young couples taking photos on dates...
All of a sudden, the entire expo was bustling with activity, resembling a marketplace.
Little Yellow was filled with awe, never expected that by this early hour, so many people had already arrived.
Beside him, a middle-aged uncle replied jovially:
"Led by the government, units and schools below also have to support somewhat. Besides, technology expos are the highlight in recent years; many adults and children are interested, very normal..."
After all, the enthusiasm of citizens for the tech exhibitions is one thing, but the commercial cooperation after the exhibition is also a good performance the municipal government is reluctant to let go.
"Just too many people, the air conditioning isn’t enough, a bit hot."
The other party spoke, couldn’t help but tug at his shirt collar as well.
Because although the other party said it’s hot, in reality, many people were still wearing long sleeves since the venue was quite cold.
The spiritual power became increasingly agitated, yet she had checked the entire venue and found no threatening places—what exactly is wrong?
Her spiritual power antenna spread out again, under the locust tree outside the venue, ants were hurriedly forming lines, and Dragonflies were anxiously hovering at low altitudes, with still silence all around, despite not having seen the sun, it seemed stifling and hot.
—Is it going to pour with rain?
Chu River, who was still unfamiliar with the weather conditions on Mountain and Sea Star, thought.
At Tianfeng Research Institute, Chang Geng was speedily browsing the information on the screen.
Although it was a novel, leaving aside the characters’ actions and backgrounds, some places needed at least a bit of logical respect.
For instance, as the overall in-charge of the institute, no matter what the investor demands, he can’t treat his career as child’s play. Qin Manman’s educational background attempting to join Tianfeng Research Institute really was a stretch—
Putting aside connections, there must be some uncontrollable factors.
His gaze glanced at the thin remaining layer of sand.
The small hourglass, time still hasn’t stopped.
Until he turned to the geographical background of Xichuan Province.
[Xichuan, earthquake-prone area. A major earthquake of 7.8 magnitude occurred in 19XX...]
Chang Geng’s breath abruptly halts!
The entire book from cover to cover, Qin Manman’s resume, including the list of researchers at Tianfeng Research Institute, and those snippets of the plot later in the novel’s story...
He finally understood!
The next moment, he immediately found his phone, contacted Chu River at the first opportunity!
Inside the venue, the noise was deafening, the phone’s sound was very faint, but Chu River was inexplicably uneasy, now every pore on her body was alert, and as soon as the phone vibrated slightly, she immediately pulled it out.
