Chapter 280 Cooperation with the State
Chapter 280 Cooperation with the State
The Ninth Base is a highly confidential unit. The reason why the number Ninth is used as a synonym is because it has no geographical characteristics, and people are confused when they hear the name.
The plane that Jiang Ruochu and Ye Sha were on landed directly at the airport inside the base.
After getting off the plane, you can see square and round buildings of various sizes standing in the base. These buildings look similar to ordinary factories.
However, if you can go underground and take a look, you will find that there is another world inside the base. There are bedrooms, offices, meeting rooms, storage rooms, various bunkers and escape passages, and it is equipped with a complete combat system.
Jiang Ruochu followed Tao Yao and Mo Kai to change to a jeep, drove around the base, and finally arrived at a place that looked like an office area.
After entering the office area, Mo Kai said, "I'm very sorry, Miss Jiang, Mr. Ye, you two must separate temporarily."
"The leader wants to meet Miss Jiang alone." Mo Kai's eyes fell on Jiang Ruochu.
Tao Yao patted Ye Sha's shoulder and said, "Hey, come with me."
Ye Sha did not move, but just looked at Jiang Ruochu quietly.
Jiang Ruochu was a little confused. Since the Ninth Base invited Ye Sha, why did they separate the two of them?
She guessed that maybe District 9 still had some concerns.
This was understandable, so Jiang Ruochu happily said, "Let's follow their arrangements."
Ye Sha then walked to Tao Yao's side. He stared in the direction where Jiang Ruochu left until she entered the elevator.
Tao Yao came close to Ye Sha and couldn't help but complain: "You seem like a loyal dog."
Ye Sha was not angry, because he could tell that Tao Yao did not mean to insult or slander him. In fact, in Tao Yao's worldview, calling a person a dog might be a compliment.
But there was one thing he had to clarify.
“I am a cat.”
"Ah?" Tao Yao was confused. What cat? You're still acting cute in front of me!
On the other side, after Jiang Ruochu entered the office, there were two old men sitting in the room.
As soon as they saw someone coming, they immediately greeted him warmly: "Student who does good things without leaving his name, we finally meet, come and sit down."
The two old men, one stood up and led Jiang Ruochu to a seat, and the other kindly poured tea for Jiang Ruochu. They were as amiable as old neighbors who had known each other for many years. Especially the greeting of "classmate who does good deeds without leaving his name" instantly brought them closer.
After everyone was seated, Mr. Zhou formally introduced himself: "Hello, Miss Jiang, my name is Zhou Liqiang, and I am the person in charge here. His name is Xing Jianxin, an expert from the Huaguo Academy of Sciences, and the person who received your email."
Jiang Ruochu looked at the two old men. Zhou Liqiang had obviously served in the army, so he was still strong and energetic.
Xing Jianxin looks like a typical intellectual, like an old professor who happened to walk by a university.
Jiang Ruochu smiled and said, "Hello, I believe you have already checked my identity clearly, so there is no need to elaborate."
"You called me here probably to ask where you got the information in the email."
Jiang Ruochu's straightforward attitude impressed Mr. Zhou and Mr. Xing very much.
Zhou Liqiang took a deep breath and said, "That's true. To be honest, the information in the email has surpassed our current technological cognition."
"What I am going to tell you next may seem very mysterious to you, but it really happened."
Zhou Liqiang and Xing Jianxin looked at each other and had a vague premonition that the news brought by the little girl in front of them might be more shocking than they imagined.
When Jiang Ruochu was about to continue speaking, he paused and looked at Mo Kai.
Zhou Liqiang understood: "It's okay, you can just say it. If it's that kid Tao Yao, I will definitely let him out before everything is finalized."
Jiang Ruochu couldn't help but laugh when she heard Zhou Liqiang's complaints, and then she said seriously: "More than half a year ago, I suddenly had a system. This system helped me establish a group of time travelers, allowing me to communicate with people from other worlds."
Zhou Liqiang widened his eyes. This seemed even more unbelievable than aliens.
"The people in these worlds are travelers who left our place."
"They exchanged supplies with me and entrusted me with tasks."
"The information I sent to Mr. Xing was given to me by a traveler from the interstellar world."
This earth-shattering news not only shocked Elder Zhou and Elder Xing, but even Mo Kai, a man who usually had no expression, had a look of surprise on his face.
Everything Jiang Ruochu said matched the clues found at the Ninth Base.
For a period of time, Jiang Ruochu did frequently purchase large quantities of supplies.
“My family owed a lot of money before, and it was with the help of the system that I was able to repay the debt.”
"Just at this time, a traveler from the interstellar world came to the group. I thought I could use this ability to help more people, so I asked the traveler from the interstellar world to send me a lot of scientific and technological information, hoping to benefit mankind."
"That's probably what happened."
Jiang Ruochu spoke briefly and to the point, but the impact of this incident was huge for the three people in the room.
System, time traveler, every word seems like a fairy tale.
But since Jiang Ruochu has confessed it voluntarily, there is no need to make up stories anymore.
Xing Jianxin was a researcher with simple ideas. He was the first to react and said excitedly, "Xiao Jiang, do you know what this means? It means that you hold the key to technological progress!"
Jiang Ruochu smiled and said, "I understand. This is why I came here. In fact, this special ability can only play a limited role in my hands, so it is best to cooperate with the country and develop it together."
"But the system can't do whatever it wants. That is to say, our current technological development still needs to be done step by step, not by leaps and bounds. I can't ask people from the interstellar world to directly deliver spaceships to us."
"I understand, I understand. Scientific research is a very rigorous matter and we cannot rush for success." Xing Jianxin rubbed his hands expectantly. "I am so lucky that I can touch the future while I am still alive..."
Perhaps only people engaged in scientific research can understand Xing Jianxin's excitement.
Sometimes the research of a project does not take one or two years, but requires decades or even generations of efforts.
Some people may spend their entire lives working on a project and never see significant results until they die.
But with the help of the interstellar world, the research progress of many projects will be accelerated, which means that many people can see the results in their lifetime. What a pleasant thing! !
The more Xing Jianxin thought about it, the more excited he became. He seemed to be several years younger.
In contrast, although Zhou Liqiang was also very excited, he was more restrained and continued to ask questions calmly to sort out the context of the matter.
"Xiao Jiang, how many people who have gone to another world can you contact now?"
"Nineteen people." Then, Jiang Ruochu listed the dimensions of the world of the time travelers in the group one by one.
