Chapter 96 An Acquaintance(1/2)
"Researcher Su, morning."
"Researcher Su, you were so anxious this morning, where are you going?"
Early in the morning, Su Tianliu hurried through the corridor of the research institute. On the way, many people were saying hello to him.
As one of the most prestigious researchers in Highgate Country, Su Tianliu has a great reputation, which can be seen just from the people who greeted him along the way.
Su Tianliu's face was very gloomy.
Along the way, he just said hello twice casually, and then he plunged into the research room and did not come out for a long time.
As the door of the research room was slammed shut, the people in the research room behind looked at each other.
A young researcher who just joined the job this year quietly asked the more senior researcher next to him: "Teacher Li, did Researcher Su's experiment not go well today?"
"Experiment? Well... that's right."
The man named Teacher Li showed a meaningful smile on his face.
He also heard the rumor.
Although that rumor sounds a bit bizarre, it has probably reached the ears of many people in a short period of time.
Teacher Li was not interested in whether that person was still alive, but now it seems that Su Tianliu is probably very interested.
That's right.
After all, these two people fought so hard back then.
Teacher Li turned his head and did not intend to get involved in the matter between the two people.
Although, when he heard the news, he had such an idea.
That person is still alive?
How is that possible.
"Teacher Li, the student who made an appointment with you is here now and is sitting in the conference room."
Just when Teacher Li was thinking, he suddenly heard the assistant beside him say.
"Oh, he's here!" Teacher Li turned his head instantly, but this time, his face was full of excitement.
"Then you hurry up and get ready. I'll be there right away."
…
Su Tianliu searched for any traces that Wu Mian might have left behind.
Logically speaking, if a person fakes his death, then if he is still concerned about the past, he will not have no news at all.
He should come back to find the things he left behind, or contact some of his former friends.
...At least, Su Tianliu thinks it should be like this.
In the past few days, Su Tianliu first searched through various documents left by Wu Mian, as well as several research groups under his name.
These are very important things in Su Tianliu's opinion.
Especially those research groups.
In the past few days, when Su Tianliu was checking it, he accidentally saw some research content inside.
It is no exaggeration to say...
These research contents made Su Tianliu feel astonished at the time.
...At the same time, it also made Su Tianliu's heart skip a beat.
Because, a certain aspect of the research here happened to collide with a current research in the Su Tianliu Research Institute.
And Su Tianliu discovered that the research team under Wu Mian, which could be called a wild road, was inferior to his own research in terms of results.
If it were not for lack of funding, this research would never have been released...
Then Su Tianliu didn't know if he could still get money from investors for his research.
Su Tianliu had an indescribable feeling in his heart at that time.
Anyway, this feeling is not that comfortable.
With this somewhat uncomfortable mood, he continued to look at Wu Mian's research results and found that no one had been here since March of this year.
"Impossible?" Su Tianliu frowned.
Looking at the research in his hand, he doubted for the first time whether Faceless was still alive.
Because in Su Tianliu's view, if Wu Mian was still alive, he would never give up what he had in his hands.
Don't say Wu Mian can't do it, I'm afraid even a fool can't do it.
Is Faceless really that stupid?
Su Tianliu didn't quite believe it.
He put down this research in confusion, and then began to look for people whom No Face could call "friends" in the past.
...Among all the senior officials, General Qi Feng is probably the only person who can talk to Wu Mian.
And all the high-ranking people in Highgate knew that General Qi Feng had always been very popular, and even people like Faceless could make friends with him.
Logically speaking, if Wu Mian is really alive, then the news about him will be told to General Qi Feng as soon as possible.
Su Tianliu also has Qifeng's number.
He looked at the number for a long time, his brows furrowed.
After a long time, Su Tianliu finally dialed a number.
...But it's not Qi Feng's.
It's another person who is also "well known", but has always had a difficult relationship with Faceless.
"Hello?"
The phone was answered, and a child's voice rang from the other side.
"Hello, Wenwen Hotel, today's special is butter baked potatoes. There are discounts for group purchases. Do you need to order?"
...In the restaurant, Zuo Zhou was cooking in front of the dining table.
Zhu Xianyue's hands were full of foam from washing dishes. Zuo Wen, who was sitting at the corner of the table doing homework, answered the phone.
Su Tianliu was stunned for a second when he heard the little girl's voice on the phone.
That voice...
Is she the daughter of the Red Hand?
Zhu Xianyue was originally yawning in front of the counter.
She only slept for four hours last night.
Moreover, carrying those messy things last night was indeed a bit too difficult for Zhu Xianyue.
If it weren't for the hatred in her heart and the fact that Zhu Xianyue was a bit of an overachiever, she might have gone to bed by now.
"On the battlefield, staying awake for three days and three nights is the most basic ability."
Xiaobai was still chattering in Zhu Xianyue's ears at this moment.
"Yes, I understand." Although Zhu Xianyue said this, she still couldn't help but yawn.
"Learning how to replenish energy is also a very important skill for soldiers." Xiaobai said.
"You didn't sleep well last night. Didn't you learn the deep sleep and light sleep methods used by the military before?"
"I..." Zhu Xianyue suddenly stopped after yawning here.
After a while, she lazily finished the remaining half of her yawn.
"I had a dream."
"What dream? Is it the dream you mentioned several times before?" Xiaobai asked.
Zhu Xianyue put the washed dishes aside and wiped the water on her hands.
"Yes, that's the dream."
——That dream about her childhood, and it was not a good dream at all.
When Zhu Xianyue was young, she had been living in a slum. However, due to her brother, Zhu Xianyue was more or less exposed to things that ordinary children in slums were not exposed to.
Zhu Xianyue felt that there were not many people in the world whose childhood was as messy as her own.
...Of course, no one would like to lie as much as Zhu Xianyue did when she was a child.
Zhu Xianyue lowered her head and was thinking about how to explain the dream to Xiaobai, a little kid, when she suddenly heard a voice coming from the phone.
"Excuse me...is Senior Bloody Hand here?"
This person's voice is very nice. In the eyes of Zhu Xianyue, who has been familiar with anime for many years, this voice is the perfect match for a gentle scum wearing gold-rimmed glasses.
Zhu Xianyue subconsciously raised her head and looked at Zuo Zhou.
