Chapter 637
Ling Yang didn't get an answer, so Qi Cheng prevaricated it with just one sentence.
He said, "If I don't tell you, if you insist on asking, I can make up a hundred reasons. Forget it, give your little brain some space."
So, after another day passed, Ling Yang embarked on the journey with her little mind and big mystery.
The first stop was of course Lingcheng. Before going to Lingcheng University, Ling Yang also made a trip to the place where Jiang Po disappeared.
The ruins there have been cleared away, leaving only a flat open space protected by a fence, and reconstruction has not yet begun.
Order has been restored in the mausoleum city long ago, and the citizens, except for their low spirits, are living their usual days. Those clamoring for the establishment of a self-defense force seem to be nowhere to be found. Everything is as usual, but not as usual anymore.
Ling Yang didn't stay long. He took a look at the map and planned to go to the subway station, but was stopped.
"Wait, that one-"
She turned around and saw an old man in police uniform walking towards her. He asked with a smile, "You are Ling Yang, right?"
Why did he feel that the whole Xia Kingdom knew him? Ling Yang instinctively took a step back and just nodded without speaking.
Seeing her wary eyes, the uncle who asked the question waved his hand, "Don't be afraid, I am Jiang Po's father."
"ah?"
"No, no, no, Jiang Po's father's colleague." The uncle smoothed the relationship and repeated, "His father is my colleague, and you are his daughter-in-law, right? No, no, you are his father.
daughter-in-law."
Ling Yang took another step back, waiting for the uncle to finish speaking, and responded with an awkward yet polite smile, "Hello."
"Don't be afraid."
"I'm not afraid."
"Okay...I just, hey, let's take a look. It's really true." The uncle was a little embarrassed and laughed twice before continuing, "It doesn't look like the one in the photo, except for the eyes, which are easy to recognize."
So, Ling Yang finally understood. Before Jiang forced her parents to return to Lingcheng, she obediently asked them to take a photo. It was said that the photo was very beautiful.
The elders say that if you look good, you must be particularly ugly.
"Everyone in our team will come here to take a look. Maybe some miracle will happen, right?" The uncle pointed to the open space in front of him, "What a sensible kid, what a pity."
Ling Yang kept a stiff smile, "Uncle, thank you, look at me... I have to go somewhere else..."
"I want to ask, will the situation get better or worse?" The uncle pursed his lips and put away the smile on his face.
Of course it would be worse, but it's a pity that Ling Yang couldn't say that, "It will be fine."
"Who wants to lose their loved ones like this?" The uncle sighed, "When we go to work now, every day is like the last day. Who knows when a black hole will suddenly appear in front of us, and a ferocious-looking monster will jump out.
Eat our heads off in one bite."
Ling Yang admitted that she would not appease the citizens at all. Even though as a member of the special team, she had many more opportunities to face the citizens than other colleagues, she still failed to get the point.
In the base, colleagues spreading negative energy to each other and saying depressing words can only be regarded as ridicule at best. Everyone's mentality is basically not affected. They eat, drink when they should, and take care of themselves when they should go to the front line. But when facing ordinary citizens,
No matter how rude Ling Yang is, he still knows not to talk nonsense.
She would just repeat with a stiff expression, "Please trust the base, believe that we will handle everything."
The uncle and Ling Yang are half the same, so naturally he can put himself in his shoes, "I know, I know, I just can't understand it. You talk about those movies, pollution, nuclear radiation, aliens, natural disasters and man-made disasters have to have someone
The reason is not? Who and what did these monsters come out for?"
Ling Yang knows that there are many explanations for the origin of these strange beasts. Although they are very unreliable, they are being updated every day. Officials spend more and more time refuting rumors every day. Citizens are waiting for a credible one.
statement.
"This aspect is a legacy of history. Please trust the base..." Ling Yang began to repeat the official lines again.
She checked her watch twice, and the uncle also noticed, "I understand, I understand, it's not easy, especially for you young people, at such a young age. Look at Xiao Jiang, he is fifteen years old - you still
There's something, right, right - you're busy, go ahead, I'm delaying you, that's not it."
"You're welcome, it's me... I can't talk to you more, I'm rude, I'm sorry. Take care of yourself, right." Ling Yang searched for a few words that could be used when talking to the elders.
He bowed, turned around and fled here again.
Lingcheng University was only seven stations away, and Ling Yang had already arrived at the station before he could even wait for a seat.
In a place like the subway station where people come and go, I wonder if the Dong family has prepared shielding devices. Ling Yang saw the bulletin board at the entrance of the station. It mentioned that the installation of shielding devices would soon be common to everyone.
Site, citizens please be patient.
But Ling Yang knew that even if the Imperial Tomb Supply Depot was dismantled into pieces, it would probably not be enough for every public place in the fifty-seven cities of Xia Kingdom.
With an extremely depressed and slightly heavy heart, she finally found Lingcheng University, which is located on the outskirts of Lingcheng.
It's very impressive. It's worthy of being a well-established first-tier university, and Dong Chao's name is quite useful. It seems that this old man is very popular in the school. After Ling Yang showed the electronic ID that Dong Xiaolian gave him to log in at the door, he was greeted by many people along the way.
People received him warmly.
There were even one or two people who mistakenly thought she was Dong Xiaolian.
I don't dare to take it seriously, although Ling Yang also wants to try to survive for a day with that face and body.
Back then, Dong Chao was studying for a Ph.D. at Lingcheng University, and many of his colleagues or classmates were still teaching here. Ling Yang casually inquired about people who knew Dong Chao, Jiang Mu, and Luo Anbang at the same time.
Their relationship was no different from what Qi Cheng described, it was a teacher-student relationship, and they did go to the forest village together for an inspection, but only Dong Chao and Jiang Mu came back.
At that time, Dong Chao had already applied for a research group at Lingcheng University to conduct research on barrier power, but Luo Anbang did not stay at the school after graduation, and was in a hurry to leave, and did not even participate in the shooting of graduation photos.
"It's probably because of differences of opinion that created a estrangement. I remember Jiang Mu said at that time that the shielding barrier should be placed on the weapon according to the previous usage, but Anbang, he disagreed. He felt that the barrier should be analyzed.
Make it into an ability that can be used artificially, and use ability to fight ability, so that it is flexible enough."
