Rebirth: I Am Super Rich in Apocalypse-Chapter 397 Application for Investigation
Chapter 397: Chapter 397 Application for Investigation
After returning, she first settled the two children, then went to see Ye Mianmian.
"Sister Yuan, please talk to her, she keeps crying there."
Fan Qing was also helpless, not knowing what to say anymore.
"Mianmian, don’t cry. What’s meant to be will come to pass, and what’s not can’t be avoided.
After all you’ve been through, don’t you understand?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Mianmian lifted her head, her face full of grievance as she looked at her.
"Sister Yuan, I know, it’s just that I’m really scared. What if he never comes back, what then?"
What can you do about it, just take it in stride.
"Mianmian, could it be that you’ve fallen for Zhang Tiezhu?"
Hearing this, Ye Mianmian was instantly stunned.
"I, I haven’t thought about it.
It’s just that he’s different, not so scheming, I..."
"Okay, no need to say more, I understand."
Who would have thought that Ye Mianmian, such a great beauty, would actually fall for someone.
She had seen so many boys before, and many of them were outstanding.
In the end, it was simplicity that moved her, how ironic!
"Mianmian, you should rest now, don’t think too much. Tomorrow we’ll go and see the specific situation.
You’re no help in your current state, understand?"
Ye Mianmian nodded mechanically, she must be struggling with her feelings now.
In the past, every day was about going to work, and her life was non-standard but fulfilling.
Now, life has become mundane, and naturally, she’s noticed the unremarkable Zhang Tiezhu.
Jhiang Yuan hoped she could figure it out on her own.
The era has changed, it’s not like the old times anymore.
Emotions and all that are secondary.
After she returned and briefed Qin Yue, she went to the space.
Even though the situation there was strange, she couldn’t neglect her space.
Lately, Jhiang Xingzhi hadn’t been around, and her work schedule didn’t match Qin Yue’s.
When she came back in the evening, tired, there were many things yet unattended to.
The grains and oils left under the sun were certainly not okay.
Previously, her parents had sorted out some using that electric tricycle, shuttling back and forth.
The heavier items, which she couldn’t handle, were left, but she managed to tidy up the lighter ones using the electric tricycle, carrying things into the house and arranging them.
She didn’t do too much, and afterwards, she picked some of the ripe vegetables to keep in the kitchen before finally leaving.
Qin Yue had already fallen asleep, so she went and picked up Xiao Nuan, and the two of them went to sleep in the space.
That way, they’d have a bit more room.
The next morning, Ye Mianmian still seemed distracted.
She was on the noon shift, but she got up early anyway and went straight to the clinic to see Zhang Tiezhu.
Jhiang Yuan knew her well, so she also got up and went with her.
The two children were sent to the space; if anyone asked, they were in the dormitory, no inconvenience at all.
They bumped into Song Yi head-on and hurried over to him.
"Brother Song, how is Zhang Tiezhu?"
"He’s fine; he woke up last night. A doctor stayed with him, so we left.
We couldn’t get through to the women’s dormitory, so we didn’t inform you."
It was already four in the morning when he woke up.
Only a few hours later, it was daylight, and there was no need to trouble you with a trip.
"I’m so relieved he’s awake, I was scared to death~"
"Are you going to see him?"
"Yeah, just going over to check on him."
Ye Mianmian nodded her head and didn’t argue or show any embarrassment.
"Then you should go to the dining hall first, and get some food for him.
Jhiang Yuan, come with me to the lab for a moment."
"What are we doing there?"
"Look for Jiang Yuan..."
Huh?
He didn’t particularly hate him, but he was always on guard against him, so why all of a sudden did he want to find him?
Before she could react, Song Yi dragged her away.
The rest of the people went to the restaurant together.
"Song Yi, let go of me, what do you need him for?"
She hadn’t spoken to Jiang Yuan in the past two days; he surely wasn’t looking for trouble, was he?
"Half Moon Lake is too eerie, Professor Jiang must go take a look at this time."
Oh, she was being paranoid.
She actually thought it might come to that, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
Luckily, Song Yi didn’t say much, and the two of them quickly reached the laboratory.
There weren’t many landmark buildings on this side, just a row of temporary prefab houses.
Jiang Yuan was quite surprised to see the two of them show up together.
"What’s this about?"
He had just started his workday and hadn’t even had time to put on his lab coat.
"Here’s the thing, we went to Half Moon Lake yesterday."
Jiang Yuan didn’t know what Half Moon Lake was, but he could tell it was something serious.
"Come inside first and then talk..."
He let the two in, and immediately an assistant came over to pour them hot water.
"Take your time, what is Half Moon Lake?"
Well, that’s like a child without a mother—a long story.
Jhiang Yuan was still brewing over where to start, when Song Yi took the lead and said
"Half Moon Lake is northeast of the base; the lake there only filled with water in the past two days, previously it was dried up.
We went there yesterday, and the water wasn’t frozen.
Moreover, the grass beside it had turned green, and the surrounding trees had also sprouted flower buds."
Jiang Yuan gave Song Yi a look as if to say "Are you sure?"
"Besides that, there are some very strange trees over there that can attack people on their own, wrapping their prey within their branches."
Jhiang Yuan kept nodding in agreement, this was indeed the case.
"If that’s the case, then it’s really amazing."
"Yesterday, Comrade Zhang Tiezhu, who went with us, was attacked by one of those trees.
When we rescued him, he was almost out of breath.
He said that he smelled a strange fragrance when he went over there.
Then, he was attacked by those branches."
In fact, he felt that the branches were strange, touched them,
and when he found something inside, he reached in to grab it.
And then, the tragedy happened.
"Professor Jiang, do you want to do some research on this?"
Jiang Yuan had seen many unusual things, so although he was surprised now, he was still okay.
"I’ve got it, I’ll report this to the leadership.
I’ll go take a look later..."
He was mainly interested in the unfrozen water of the lake and the area that had prematurely entered spring.
If it were anyone else saying it, he might not believe it, but Jhiang Yuan’s words were another matter.
After explaining the situation, the two of them were ready to visit Zhang Tiezhu.
"Why are you looking at me?"
Jhiang Yuan’s little antics had been discovered, but she wasn’t too embarrassed.
"Nothing, just think you’re a pretty sensible person."
Song Yi also smiled but didn’t stop walking.
"Later on, you’ll discover even more of my good qualities."
"Praise yourself, and you puff up like a blowfish, seriously..."
The two of them joked and laughed, a rare moment of relaxation.
When they arrived at the infirmary, Zhang Tiezhu was eating because Ye Mianmian had come to visit him.
He was over the moon and downed a bowl of porridge in one go.
