Hello, Arknights

Chapter 74: Lorna's College Journey; Undercurrents

"By the way, Ling Dengxian and A'ran, do you want to go to the park to see the release of scales this afternoon?" After gradually passing the peak period of visitor flow, Lorna and A'ran finally had some free time. Lorna sat back in her chair, put her hands on the back of the chair, and looked up and asked.

"Release scales? Aren't there scales in the park pond? And shouldn't the lake be frozen in this weather? How can we release scales?" A'ran was puzzled.

"Indeed, buying more fish in the middle of winter is more or less..." Ling Dengxian wiped the last cup clean and exhaled, then carefully placed it on the cupboard. Ms. Wesson, who was supervising him, nodded and indicated that he could rest.

"I heard that someone broke the lake surface in the middle of the night. When they counted the fish the next day, they found that many scales were missing. It seems that the fish were stolen in the past few days. If it hadn't snowed last night and the lake had frozen, the park administrator would not know when he would have reacted."

"... Congratulations, congratulations." Ling Dengxian rubbed his hands which were red from rubbing the rim of the cup. "It's a pity that we still have to open in the afternoon--"

"Ah...really not going? I really want to go and take a look." The girl from Libori lowered her head.

"If Lorna wants to go, just go with her." Weisen sighed, "There shouldn't be so many people in the afternoon. I should be able to handle it."

"...Boss lady, are you serious? I feel like you will lose a lot of money if you treat us like this." Ling Dengxian said seriously.

"I'll lose a lot of money if you overload my raw materials." Ms. Wesson sneered and waved her hand, "You're lucky to have met me. If you were any other boss, not only you, but even little girl A'ran would be in trouble."

A'ran just smiled and didn't feel anything.

"...Ms. Wesson, do you have any books? Study books, I can borrow them to enrich myself." Ling Dengxian scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Little Lorna, what major did you study in college?" Weisen looked at Lorna, who perked up: "Biology and medicine."

"Can you show him your textbooks?"

"Okay, okay. It's just sitting there anyway. I'll go back to your place tonight and get it."

"Wait, wait, why do you carry study materials with you?" Ling Dengxian was shocked. He was even more shocked because those were college textbooks and he hadn't even graduated from high school.

But right now...it doesn't seem appropriate to say it.

"Ah... after all, you're here for an internship, so it's normal to bring these with you, right?" Lorna was stunned.

"It seems like you haven't been doing any internship these days..." Ling Dengxian suddenly felt something was wrong, "Wait! How come you studied biology and medicine and ended up being a chef?!"

"Of course it's useful. I also have a chef's diploma."

"Why is Sister Lorna studying biology and medicine at the same time? Is it some kind of interdisciplinary subject?" A'ran asked puzzledly. When they were chatting last night, Lorna gave her a lot of popular knowledge.

"Ah, this... This is because I went to the wrong classroom at the beginning of the school year. The textbooks were distributed uniformly in the classroom. I studied biology for a semester and finally found out that something was wrong. I found out that I was originally studying medicine, so I changed my major after thinking about it... Don't ask me why I didn't even know which subject I applied for. At that time, I handed my high school grades, application materials, letters of recommendation, and resume to the courier, and then I was having so much fun that I forgot about it..." Lorna's words made Ling Dengxian a little dazed.

Why...it's Western-style high school study, and Eastern-style summer vacation play! !

"Don't you think there's anything wrong with the way you learn it?" It was the first time that Ms. Wison knew that her niece was so... hard to describe, and she was very surprised.

"What's wrong? I did well in biology and medicine, hehe." Lorna scratched her head, "I still graduated in the normal time."

"Then why did you take the chef's certificate exam and become a chef?!" Ling Dengxian couldn't understand even more.

"Oh, because my advisor recommended me to continue my studies and promised me a recommendation to do an internship at Rhine Life Science after I graduated with my doctorate. I thought that place would be too depressing and my parents wouldn't be able to handle it if I got into trouble, so they refused." Lorna smiled innocently. Ling Dengxian could hear her concerns but was still confused.

"Then why you still haven't explained why you're a chef."

“Because it can be used in both biology and medicine.”

"No, you can also go to other biomedical companies."

"If I don't go to other companies like Rhine Life, why should I go to other companies?"

Ling Dengxian was speechless for a moment. Luo Erna smiled happily: "Besides, I am happy this way. My parents don't have any objections. They just told me to be careful when I go out."

"Excuse me, where do your parents live?"

"Lorna's parents can't sit still, so they've been going to Yan Country to keep in touch with a distant relative in the past few years." Wisen held his forehead with his hand. She had no way to deal with this family.

"Yeah, we receive a lot of letters and postcards every year!" Lorna nodded in agreement.

Ling was speechless, but A'ran showed a longing look and quietly held his hand.

"Alright, alright, let's stop reading 'Little Lorna's Amazing College Life'. The three of you go back and pack up. Bring your uniforms here this afternoon and I'll take them to the laundry. Come back early in the evening. Ling Dengxian, keep an eye on them. If anything happens to them, I'll hold you accountable!"

"I got it..." Ling Dengxian also breathed a sigh of relief. It was good to be able to rest.

He looked at the girl from Liberia who was rocking excitedly on her chair, and he had a contrast in mind. He was sure that the girl was laughing sincerely.

Ah Ran came over and said, "Ling Dengxian, when are you planning to go to Yan Country?"

Ling Dengxian came back to his senses. Indeed, he was not going to settle down in Tobrand. He had to set off again after earning enough money for the journey.

"what happened?"

"When the time comes, can you take me with you?" A'ran said nervously. It is not easy to travel in the wilderness.

"..." Ling Dengxian did not answer, but raised his hand and touched her head. A'ran felt a little embarrassed, but did not hide.

She was very happy when she knew Ling Dengxian's answer.

Wesson: "Tsk."

"Director, these data...are so abnormal."

Ibus also frowned. He knew best the expected trend of these data, but the data given by the spiritual information reflection device did not match the expected results at all.

"What did that woman Noya say?"

"Uh, Director, this email is from Gu Fan. Do you want to see it?"

"…What did they say?"

"'Are you in charge of the experiment asking us?'"

"and then?"

“No, that’s all she replied.”

Ibus gritted his teeth and said, "There will be some weird things in the final stage, right?!"

"Director! Over here, over here, there's news from the boss!"

"What!" He was shocked, snatched the terminal and looked at the screen.

There were also only a few words, but Ibrahimovic felt relieved.

"Don't be impatient."
