The atmosphere in the office was a little awkward.
After Bai Qing said that she was still in high school, she immediately regretted it. The development of the situation had completely exceeded her expectations. She did not know how to explain her purpose of coming here. She did not even know if Director Gao would kick her out immediately.
In the end, it was Director Gao on the other side of the desk who spoke first. "Do you know how I met Lin Sisi?"
"Huh?"
Lin Sisi was the youngest among all the contestants. At that time, she was only in the third grade. Although I don't know what your relationship with her is, you should have seen her photo. She was very small, and she looked inconspicuous in the crowd. However, she was very smart, "Director Gao said." I was one of the judges of the quiz at that time. You can see that most of the children had to memorize these things to prepare for the competition and for the certificate. But Lin Sisi was different. She really liked these things. You can see it from her eyes. "
"Did she get first place?"
"No, she was in second place. She got a question wrong in the last answer segment, but it turned out that she was the one who got it right. At that time, the new research had just been announced, and the question bank hadn't been updated yet." Director Gao said, "Although she didn't get first place, she left the deepest impression on me. So, I gave her my phone number and told her that she could come to the Children's Palace to find me when she's free."
"So, have you known her for a long time? Did she say anything to you before she drowned?" Bai Qing asked quickly.
Director Gao took a deep look at Bai Qing, then said, "Unfortunately, I went on a long business trip some time ago. I was not here for about a month, so I did not contact her for more than a month before the accident."
"But I heard from the guard that they came to Children's Palace last week," Bai Qing said anxiously.
"Really? I gave them a key and gave them a useless warehouse as an activity room. They do come here from time to time."
"Can you take me there?" Bai Qing blurted out. Then, she realized that her request was a little too much, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on her face.
Unexpectedly, Chief Gao nodded. "Sure. I have nothing to do today anyway." After that, she took out a bunch of keys from the drawer. After that, the two of them went to the basement floor together. When they first went down, the corridor was dark, and there were only the two of them. Bai Qing suddenly felt a little nervous when she saw Director Gao walking in front of her.
She had been warned by Zhang Heng a long time ago that those things had infiltrated human society for some time. In other words, she did not know which people around her were disguised by those things. Earlier, Bai Qing realized that she had found the right direction this time. Excited, she kept thinking about how to convince Director Gao to bring her to the important item left behind by Lin Sisi.
However, she had to admit that her performance upstairs was really bad. If she were in Director Gao's position, it was very likely that she would have chased her out. In the end, the other party did not ask her about her identity and just brought her down.
When the excitement passed and she calmed down, Bai Qing felt that things were a little difficult to explain. Looking at Director Gao's back in front of her, she could not help but feel nervous.
The latter did not speak. She walked to the wall, pressed the switch, and turned on the light in the corridor. After that, she turned back to look at Bai Qing. "Why did you stop? Didn't you want to come? "
"I … I'm sorry," Bai Qing quickly apologized. After that, she bit the bullet and followed Director Gao.
At this point, it was impossible for her to go back on her words. All she could do was walk into the warehouse with Director Gao in fear.
Fortunately, there was no one lying in ambush inside. It looked like an ordinary storage room.
"This place is mainly used to store some sundries, as well as things left from the previous planetarium. Of course, most of the high-value items have been moved to the new planetarium. The rest are things that the new planetarium doesn't need, including some old models and scientific materials," Director Gao explained.
Bai Qing's attention temporarily returned to the warehouse. She saw a small table and a few stools. On the table were models of the nine planets (Pluto was removed from the list in 2006. Now, there were actually eight planets. This was because the model was older). There were also Galileo telescopes and a sandbox of craters next to them.
Bai Qing was a little dizzy. Although she was a top student, she was not an astronomy enthusiast. Her strength lay in exam-oriented education. As for the things outside the textbook, it basically depended on each person's interests and hobbies. Obviously, her interest was not in stargazing. When she saw all these things, she had no idea where to start. According to her previous agreement with Zhang Heng, she could send him the information at this time.
Unfortunately, her mobile phone was broken at this time, so she could only continue to ask Director Gao, who was beside her.
"Is there anything special here?"
"Special? What do you mean? "Director Gao asked rhetorically.
"It's probably something that only exists here. Other planetariums don't have," Bai Qing said.
"What do you think this is? A treasure hunt?" Director Gao shook her head. "Planetariums are basically popular science. To help young people understand astronomy and cultivate their interest in it, there is nothing unique in it. Besides, we are only the city planetarium. The really valuable things have been moved to the new planetarium."
"Uh, please think about it again. This matter is very important to me," Bai Qing said anxiously.
"Why is it important?" Director Gao asked calmly. "How can I help you if you don't tell me?"
"Believe me, I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to get into trouble," Bai Qing smiled bitterly. Bai Qing smiled bitterly. "If you knew what happened to Lin Sisi and my family, you would never want to get involved."
"No, you didn't tell me because deep down, you are sure that I will not believe you," Director Gao said. Director Gao said, "You know, you're not the first person to ask me about the planetary observation team."
"Did anyone else look for you before this?" Bai Qing was shocked. "Who?"
"It doesn't matter. You don't know him anyway," Director Gao said, looking into Bai Qing's eyes. Director Gao looked into Bai Qing's eyes. "When you try to make others believe in you, have you ever thought about trying to believe in that person first?"
"Sorry, it's just that things are crazy."
"The truth is sometimes crazier than a lie. As a former scientific researcher, no one knows this better than me," Director Gao said.
