The plane passed through the dark clouds over the federal northern territorial waters at a constant speed.
Guo Jiu lay lazily on the seat in front of the porthole, with the small blanket Yan Luyi covered him with. He was holding the tea that Feng Jiiling had mixed for him, and the projection screen hanging in front of him was playing
Yan Yue carefully selected for him the documentaries on the network engineering architecture of the Anglian Era of the Western Continent countries. With the sound of footsteps, Zhou Shan placed a plate of nuts on the simple table beside him.
These nuts have a very strange appearance, with a dark brown shell and covered with hard flat spines, like a stegosaurus with its head and tail joined together.
"Oh, I'm a little embarrassed to be pampered by you all of a sudden." Guo Jiu picked up a fruit, pinched it to test the hardness and crispness of the shell, and then put it back on the plate:
"Xiaoyuan, come here and help peel the devil fruit. This is super delicious, but it's hard to peel."
Yan Yuan couldn't help being speechless.
Are you embarrassed? You are just enjoying it!
"I'm busy, let Zhou Shan skin it for you." A three-dimensional projection of the fighting character was dancing in front of him. He was playing a battle game with Yan Yue, holding the control panel and operating frantically.
"Go quickly, go quickly." Yan Yue hammered him to death in one seamless motion.
"...Brother, you are really my brother!" Yan Yuan was confused by the KO, and he stood up reluctantly, "Isn't it bad to spoil him like this?"
Yan Yue is very good at listening to other people's opinions: "Please list the bad points and analyze them in detail."
"..." Yan Yuan chose to surrender, "I'll peel it off, I'll peel it off."
Guo Minghua walked out of the office quickly.
There was an important discussion meeting held in the West District, so he seemed to be in a hurry. He took two steps forward, his eyes inadvertently glanced at a place, and he suddenly stopped at his feet: "Gao Yang?"
Gao Yang's eyes were red and he was wandering in the corridor not far away. He was startled by his shout and took a step back at a loss. He seemed to want to run away, but in the end he mustered up the courage to leave.
He came to a stop in front of him: "Guo, Academician Guo."
What kind of person Guo Minghua is, I guessed the reason why he appeared here in a blink of an eye.
The door of his office is open, and it is not in a state that cannot be disturbed. Gao Yang is his favorite disciple, and unlike ordinary people, he can just come in without being so outgoing.
And now it looks like he has been lingering here for a long time.
Thinking about it made him feel sad, so he sighed, "What happened to your brother... I'm really sorry."
"No, no, I'm not here...that or anything like that," Gao Yang said in a panic. He was afraid that Guo Minghua would misunderstand that he was here to ask for punishment, but he was also offended by even saying the word "to ask for punishment." "I just
I want to ask...well, my brother, does he have any other options?"
Guo Minghua stared at him, as if thinking about something, but did not answer.
"Oh, look at me," Gao Yang couldn't help but smile bitterly, "If there were other ways to do this, it wouldn't be a problem. I'm sorry, I just lost my mind. Alas, this kind of thing has happened to my family.
, it’s still hard to accept it for a while.”
He bowed deeply to Guo Minghua: "Academician, I'm sorry for wasting your time. Go and get busy. I...I, I, I, I just thought about it."
As he spoke, he turned around and ran away, obviously feeling extremely guilty for disturbing Guo Minghua.
Guo Minghua looked at his hurried back, with an indescribable complex feeling in his heart. He preferred such young people, who did not need too much guidance and never had to be bothered by anyone, but had extremely high enthusiasm and devoted themselves to the work.
I have no regrets in my scientific research career.
"Gao Yang." He walked forward and called him.
"Academician Guo?" Gao Yang hesitated for a moment and turned around. His tone was uncontrollably filled with hope, but rationally he kept scolding himself for being so stupid. He walked outside the door of the academician's office in a daze and was completely embarrassed.
.
Guo Minghua didn't stop and walked past him with his computer under his arm. When he turned around, he patted his shoulder: "I'll try my best to help you think of a solution."
"Academician Guo!" Gao Yang's eyes lit up instantly. He had a god-like trust in this senior. If he said there was a way, then there must be a way. Under the ecstasy and excitement, two more lines of tears rolled down,
"I'm really sorry for your trouble. As long as my brother can get better, I will... I will..."
He suddenly realized that Guo Minghua had gone far, turned around quickly, looked over, raised his hand and rubbed his eyes.
Tears blurred his vision, but this did not affect the figure from behind who looked extremely tall.
"There are special techniques for peeling this kind of nuts. Let me tell you," Teacher Yan Yuan proudly started a small class on peeling devils. "First, we pulled off a moderately sized thorn. Then when we saw the small pit,
This is the place where the knot is. The texture is very soft. Aim the tip of the thorn into the small pit and press it in. It will open with a slight twist. Be careful, be careful with this step, it is very easy to prick your hand. Then take out the seeds inside.
Pour it out - have you learned how to do it?"
"Learned it!"
Yan Luyi was the first to agree. He took a devil fruit and slapped it with a simple and rough slap under Teacher Yan Yuan's scrutinizing eyes. Half of the fruit shell disappeared immediately, and the small maroon seeds had a unique sweet fragrance.
She said, and it was poured into the palm of her hand: "Oh, it smells so good."
Yan Yuan was immediately shocked: "It's amazing to have superpowers."
"That's right," Yan Luyi finished eating in a blink of an eye, took another one and slapped it away, "Having superpowers means you can do whatever you want."
Guo Jiu and Yan Yue's terminals sounded communication requests at the same time.
From Guo Minghua.
Yan Yue took one look and his face changed slightly, and he wanted to refuse directly, but the time it took him to put down the control panel and operate the terminal was much shorter than the time it took Guo Jiu to directly click on the terminal while waiting for food.
So the communication was still picked up by Guo Jiu.
He did not call his father's name directly like Yan Yue, but remained silent and waited for him to speak.
So Guo Minghua easily guessed the caller at this time: "Is it Guo Jiu?"
Hearing Guo Minghua's voice from the other end, Yan Yuan was so frightened that his hand was pricked by the devil fruit, and he gasped and flailed it in the air. Yan Lu leaned under the table and kicked him to tell him not to react too much.
Exaggerated to prevent Guo Jiu from guessing something strange.
Feng Jiiling was sitting aside, but at this moment, a ghost appeared behind Guo Jiu, and his right hand subconsciously rested on the handle of the gun at his waist.
Guo Jiu didn't pay much attention to them. He asked Guo Minghua: "What's the matter with you?"
"Actually, it's nothing," Guo Minghua's tone sounded very relaxed, "I felt uneasy for some time yesterday for some reason. Today's surveillance of Kirken's green eyes keywords made me discover abnormal movements in Yongning, and then I suddenly thought of you.
It seems that I also went to Yongning. Are you okay?"
"Ah," Guo Jiu's expression was originally a bit gloomy when he received the call from him, but at this time, the lines on his face softened significantly, and the corners of his lips could not help but curl up in a slight arc, "I'm fine.
"
Guo Minghua asked: "Did you encounter anything in Yongning?"
"There are some things..." Guo Jiu said.
"The communication quality is not very good. What you are saying is a bit blurry," Guo Minghua interrupted and asked, "Are you on the plane?"
"Back to Jicheng." Guo Jiu replied.
Guo Minghua said "Oh": "Then let's meet and talk. I'll go see you later."
Guo Jiu sat up straight in an instant: "I'll be home in about an hour."
"Okay, I'll come over after I finish the work at hand." Guo Minghua reached an agreement calmly and then hung up the communication.
The cabin fell into silence.
Guo Jiu looked back at the communication records again, and then looked away from the terminal. Suddenly he realized that the cabin was too quiet, even the sound of peeling nuts was gone, and he quickly waved his hand: "The communication is over.
You can talk now."
He was smiling a bit when he said this.
Everyone felt increasingly complicated.
Yan Yue was especially troubled. He tried his best to divert his attention to prevent Guo Jiu from sharing his mental activities.
"What's wrong?" Guo Jiu looked around and noticed something unusual in the atmosphere. "Isn't your reaction not right?"
"It's your reaction that's not right, right?" Yan Luyi immediately covered it up, "What's going on? You're so happy after just receiving a phone call?"
"Happy? Haha, no." Guo Jiu leaned back on his seat, making himself look calm and calm, but the corners of his lips still couldn't help but rise. Then he felt that this was too dishonest.
, a little embarrassed, so he added: "Actually, I was in a good mood today."
"Really?" Zhou Shan came over and did something that everyone wanted to do but were afraid of being rude, "Then come and give me a hug~"
Generally speaking, you have to give a hug when you are in a bad mood, but as Zhou Shan, you don’t need to find a logical relationship to hug him when you want. Guo Jiu was really in a good mood, so he hugged him cooperatively: "You just had something to eat.
, don’t lick randomly.”
Feng Jiling and Yan Yue stared at Zhou Shan, feeling distressed and wanting to grind their teeth.
"Actually, I don't really want to go back to Jicheng." A travel guide window popped up in front of Yan Yue. "The special operations team's relocation assistance has not ended yet. Didn't I originally plan to spend this period of time as a holiday? Here we come.
I haven’t had time to travel since I got here, so I think it’s better to take advantage of these few days to go to Liuguang Reef.”
Yan Luyi immediately agreed: "Okay, okay, where is the Flowing Light Reef? It sounds fun when I hear it."
"But you can go to Liuguang Reef anytime," Guo Jiu said, "I want to go home first."
"Oh, when you said you were going home, I felt a little homesick." Yan Yuan tried his best to think of an excuse, "I want to go back to Lance Island in the next few days to see how my parents are doing there.
.”
"But we all agreed yesterday..."
Guo Jiu looks pitiful.
"Forget it, forget it," Yan Yue held up his forehead, glared at Yan Yuan, and said, "Look at your parents, don't open the pot and pick up the pot. This will make it even more difficult. Guo Jiu will definitely stop him by force."
When I became suspicious, I could only agree: "Go back."
