Wu Zunliang went, "Oh," "It's that young fellow who came from the same orphanage as Qingwen. He should be fifty years old this year. Back then, he almost became my graduate student. In the end, he became Qingwen's follower and went to the Wilderness …. You're young. You probably don't have an impression. "
No, I have a very good impression.
After all, it was a rarely seen Dimensional Crossbow that utilized the laws of the Polar Domain. It nearly took my life.
Of course, Luo Nan just revealed a smile at this time.
"He seems to have been operating a business in the Wilderness these past few years. He's doing quite well. He also has a stake in Dr. Wang's company."
Wu Zunliang was rather emotional. "It's not easy."
"Really?"
Luo Nan's gaze followed Wu Zunliang's description and he saw Dr. Wang's expression turn a bit odd. Dr. Wang just nodded his head over and over.
From the perspective of a city dweller, the meaning behind "operating a business in the Wilderness" and "doing well" was quite subtle.
Wu Zunliang was quite natural. "We originally agreed to go together, but he had something to do at the last minute, so he introduced Dr. Wang …. Has he been in contact with you guys these past few years?"
"No. I heard my aunt mention that the two of them communicated when Dad was here, but their relationship didn't seem to be too good. "
Half of Luo Nan's words were fabricated.
He had indeed heard the main contents of the story from Mrs. Luo Shuqing once. Of course, Mrs. Luo Shuqing had only mentioned a fellow with the surname Luo at the time. Due to a certain suggestion from her father, the project succeeded. The fellow called her father in his excitement and cursed him, calling him a deserter, a piece of trash, and so on ….
Luo Nan had some suspicions about who it was, but he didn't know for sure. But from the contents relayed by his aunt, it should be someone active in the Wilderness, someone who once worked together with his father.
Luo Nan highly suspected that this "Luo" was actually "Luo", but he didn't have any clear evidence. But they were chatting right now. They needed to gather information and expand in depth. They needed a starting point.
Professor Wu Zunliang laughed and sighed when he heard this. "The matters of young people …. Of course, he's not young anymore."
He changed the topic at this point. "Little Nan, you're in your prime. I heard you talk about this sister and that sister. You seem to know quite a few. You seem to be quite likable? "
"Huh?"
"Yeah, everyone knows about Boss Luo's hobbies." Tang Yi added with a smile.
Realization dawned on Wu Zunliang. "I remember now. Old Pan did mention this before."
"…"
In the end, Luo Nan had seen many shameless people during this period of time. He had many references when imitating them. Luo Nan just revealed an awkward yet polite smile. Then he quickly changed topics:
"You know, my situation here is special. Uncle and Aunt don't talk to me about what happened in the past. It's impossible to ask Grandpa …"
"Old Luo … I haven't seen him for a few years. The older I get, the more I can't stand it. How is he?"
Luo Nan responded in a reserved manner, "It can't be any worse."
Professor Wu Zunliang sighed yet again. His heart was filled with feelings of pity for this little fellow, Luo Nan. He strove to recall more and more, displaying his specialty in nagging to start a long chat mode.
He still felt that this was not enough. He even took the initiative to start a video call with Professor Pan Wen. First, he dragged Luo Nan over to appear on camera together. He showed off today's wondrous travel experience. As expected, he stirred up the emotions of Professor Pan Wen. Then he dragged his wife over to talk about the past.
That's where the convoy is.
They quickly advanced toward the laboratory ruins in this atmosphere.
Lieutenant Colonel Chen, whose mind was filled with past events, was roughly a dozen kilometers away. He was worried about whether or not he would encounter additional risks due to knowing too much. At the same time, he dutifully informed Luo Nan:
"There's around five minutes left."
"Are we almost there?"
The limited field of view of the armored vehicle clearly couldn't satisfy Wu Zunliang's requirements. He simply stood up and looked through the windshield in front of him.
"Just stop for a bit!"
Professor Pan Wen felt quite helpless towards his wife's temperament. The two of them were both loud and clear. They had a few conflicts when they were talking about the past. It was inevitable that they would get a bit tired after yelling at each other from several thousand kilometers away. He took this opportunity to take the initiative to call a truce:
"We're almost there. We need to take care of things. What's the point of being so anxious and pale... Luo Nan."
"Professor Pan."
"I've heard quite a bit of news about you these past two days. Let's not talk about anything else. Since you've already made a name for yourself, you need to put on an act. Let your mother's soul in heaven be at ease. Let my shop shine. "
"Oh my! What are you saying these pretentious words for!" Wu Zunliang pointed at the projection area in annoyance.
Luo Nan chuckled and responded with drooping eyes, "As you wish."
Professor Pan Wen seemed to laugh and sigh. He simply cut off the video.
Wu Zunliang was still mumbling, "I'm afraid I've seen too much in the past two years... I didn't realize it before!"
No one dared to respond. At this time, it was the turn of the others to take the initiative to change the topic.
Tang Yi estimated the distance and turned to Dr. Wang: "I remember you saying before you came that Senior Sister Qingwen didn't stay in this laboratory for long..."
"Yeah. From what I remember, Dr. Bu stayed in the Hundred Races Laboratory for around half a year. She was mainly in the highland frontier laboratory before. She might not come down even once in a year or two. The main reason she came down this time was to... wait to give birth. She seems to be suffering from severe altitude sickness. "
Dr. Wang's voice grew softer and softer. Even though his EQ was lacking, he felt that it was inappropriate to speak halfway through and associate what happened later. Plus, Luo Nan was separated from him by Professor Wu. Though he still had a smile on his face, Dr. Wang inexplicably felt that the atmosphere in the car had become very oppressive.
He instinctively wanted to shut his mouth, but the young Boss Luo, who came up to get a free ride, leaned forward slightly. His smiling and curved eyebrows were completely exposed before Dr. Wang's eyes. He took the initiative to ask:
"I know a bit about mom's matters on the highland. That can be considered her profession... In this laboratory, the Hundred Races, right? What is she doing?"
This was like the pure curiosity of a child... At least Luo Nan showed it this way.
It looked like he wasn't thinking too much... My ass!
If Dr. Wang hadn't communicated with Mrs. Yin these past few days, he might have believed Luo Nan when he saw Luo Nan's standard 'obedient grandson' appearance.
But he had such a meticulous and capable subordinate. Moreover, Luo Nan had casually extended his hand to stop the military vehicle. Luo Nan made Lieutenant Colonel Chen and Captain Chou exceptionally cautious and well-behaved. Could such a fellow really be pure and stupid?
Dr. Wang relied on his IQ to see some clues, but his EQ was insufficient to support an appropriate response. The more this was the case, the more speechless he became.
Next to him, Luo Nan's seemingly simple and pure smile gave him more and more pressure.
Fortunately, Tang Yi followed Luo Nan's lead and asked at this time: "Dr. Wang, you research genetic engineering, right? Since the Hundred Races laboratory is in the Wilderness...
It should be researching mutant genes, right? Our fields of study cross paths! "
"Ah, yes. But I'm doing it very shallowly. I'm saying that I'm doing it relatively shallowly... Actually, I'm really ashamed of the ten years I've spent since returning from the Wilderness. "
As long as he could open his mouth to speak, he could erase the awkwardness and reduce the pressure he felt from Luo Nan. Dr. Wang couldn't care less.
"Actually, the things I'm researching right now are much shallower and more fragmented than when I was in the laboratory. Let's not talk about the direction. There are many rules and regulations that I don't dare to jump out of..."
Having said this, Dr. Wang looked at the two military personnel at the front of the vehicle. He couldn't help but feel a bit guilty.
Tang Yi just so happened to continue at this time:
"I heard my teacher say that Mr. Luo Yuandao's level of thought experimentation and project design is far from what the results of the laboratory can reflect..."
"That's not what I said."
Wu Zunliang chuckled: "My original words are that the things in his brain are like flying a kite. The wind is just a bit stronger, and all the serious experiments that are tied to the back of his head fly away!"
Having said this, the old man felt that Tang Yi was going a bit overboard when he saw the gaze Tang Yi cast over. He hurriedly patted the back of Luo Nan's hand twice: "You understand the intent. You understand the intent. Tang Yi's explanation is quite good."
Luo Nan smiled and nodded: "I understand. Sometimes, Grandfather's train of thought is dragged particularly far away. However, I feel that his research on the biological plane is quite solid... I've only studied a portion of the notes. It's mainly some knowledge on the application of targeted drugs. But I feel that there should be even more fundamental things existing beneath this applied knowledge. "
"So I want to ask Dr. Wang. What was the research related to genetic engineering back in the Hundred Races Laboratory? Were there any clearer results... You wouldn't have a confidentiality agreement or something like that, right?"
"Uh, the agreement has already expired. Actually, later on, Dean Luo. Oh, that's Mr. Luo Yuandao. That's what we all called him back then. When Dean Luo was investigated, the relevant agreement became invalid..."
"So you're saying that a lot of the results have already leaked out?"
"You can say that."
Dr. Wang's forehead unconsciously beaded with sweat. He didn't know why the topic had suddenly changed to such a sensitive and serious direction.
He still wanted to salvage the situation. At this time, talking about the details of Bo Qingwen back then didn't seem that hard to accept.
"There were indeed many topics in the laboratory back then, including the controversial Formatting Theory... But I didn't come into contact with these things back then, and I didn't really understand them. From what I know, Dr. Bo was mainly recuperating back then. He didn't take on any specific tasks. From what I remember, helping Little Wu design a special petri dish is one of them. "
"Little Wu? Wu Jun?" Wu Zunliang interrupted. "I haven't seen Wu Jun in six or seven years."
Luo Nan blinked his eyes: "Aunt Wu Jun's surname is also Wu. She's your..."
"You can say she's related. After all, you can't write two 'Wu's in one stroke. Hey, do you remember things from your childhood? Or did I just say... No? "
"Uh, I met her friends and family in Spring City."
Luo Nan was referring to Yan Fen and Polio, whom he met in the U-hole market in Spring City.
As his thoughts spun, Polio, the former 'bosom friend' who viewed his father as an enemy, flashed in Luo Nan's mind with a stubborn and adorable face.
Luo Nan subconsciously laughed, but he soon frowned.
The car slowed down at this time. They arrived at the laboratory ruins.
