Autistic genius, a flourishing era of scientific research

Some people really wanted to give up and go back home, but when they saw that Liu Feng had come, many people invested in building factories and opening shops here.

Some people saw clues from the cooperation between Mr. Code Name and the Xia State Government. It is obvious that Mr. Code Name is not like some old scientists of the Xia State who selflessly conduct research for the country.

Moreover, judging from the current situation, Mr. Codename may have new technological innovations in the future. Since it is a cooperation, if he can cooperate with Xia Guofu and Liufeng Machinery Factory, why not with them?

They have businesses in Liufeng, and after finding out who Mr. Codename is, they can seize the initiative and get the opportunity for cooperation.

Some businessmen are even considering paying a large sum of money to lure this technological innovation talent to their own companies.

It is naturally better for such talents to go to more advanced countries to develop than to stay in Xia Country.

As more people have this idea, factories and shops will need to recruit workers. More people will work, and they will naturally spend money. Wouldn't the city be revitalized?

If I had to say where I was at a loss, it would probably be that investing in the mainland now does not have any preferential policies, and because transportation is not particularly convenient, the amount of investment required is much higher than in Canghai City.

In order to find out the power behind these foreigners, Jiang Xiaowen and Si Cizhan found a way to sneak in.

Jiang Xiaowen walked to Si Cizhan's door and knocked. After a while, the door opened and two foreigners who were talking to Si Cizhan came out.

Seeing the translator brought by Si Ci Zhan coming back, the two foreigners said goodbye to Si Ci Zhan in a foreign language and left the room.

Jiang Xiaowen walked in, closed the door, took out the envelope Jiang Yan gave him from his pocket, and boasted to him:

"This is a birthday gift from Yanyan. She also said it can protect me in times of danger. Look at how considerate my sister is. Do you have such a well-behaved and thoughtful sister?"

Si Cizhan snatched it away, holding the deflated envelope. He glanced at Jiang Xiaowen coldly with his eyelids raised.

"Took it away?"

"No, I haven't opened it yet. It was already deflated when I received it. Look at the bottom of the envelope. It should be the slightly bulging thing."

There was a hint of doubt in his words, and Si Ci Zhan's mind was also full of questions.

How can such a small thing protect you when in danger?

Is there any magical use?

Jiang Xiaowen reached out to take back his birthday present, but Si Cizhan immediately dodged him and waved the envelope in his hand towards Jiang Xiaowen:

"Let me help you find some birthday presents."

Jiang Xiaowen: "Go away, I'll take it down myself. You're definitely jealous!"

Si Cizhan was about to tear open the envelope, but upon hearing this, he threw it back: "Who's jealous? I don't need anything to protect myself."

"Aren't you afraid she'll give you a needle? That can be used for self-defense, but it's not very useful and it's hard to carry. If it's not easy to put away, give yourself a needle first before defending yourself."

"You still say you're not jealous." Jiang Xiaowen hummed a little tune and walked to the side to sit down. Si Cizhan followed him and watched him open the envelope and take out the birthday gift prepared by Jiang Yan.

A ring and a note.

Jiang Xiaowen put on the ring. It was an open ring. He simply tried the size and felt that it would be most suitable on his index finger.

"It's a pretty nice ring with a five-pointed star on it, but I don't think I can wear it on a regular basis. Yanyan might be thinking too much. She doesn't know that soldiers like us can't wear rings or jewelry."

"I don't see how to defend myself either." He was a little confused.

Si Cizhan handed him the note: "It's written on it."

Jiang Xiaowen took it and looked at it. It said: If you encounter danger, press the five-pointed star and turn it over.

There were a few flowers drawn on the note, but the person who drew it didn't seem to have much talent in this area. The drawing wasn't pretty, the flowers were drawn a little too densely, and it looked a bit abstract.

"Press it secretly and turn it over?" Jiang Xiaowen looked at the ring on his finger, recited the words on the note, and tried to do it with his thumb.

When he pressed the five-pointed star, he was surprised: "I can really press the five-pointed star on this ring? It looks so small, but it's made so precisely."

It is not easy to make a press-down five-pointed star on a ring like this, and Jiang Yan did it herself. Jiang Xiaowen was very moved.

"But, can this thing really flip over? Can it stand upright, with the corner of the pentagram acting as a thorn?"

He didn't stop talking or moving his hands, he was just thinking about how to flip the five-pointed star.

Si Cizhan stared at the movements of his hands: "Try it and you'll know."

Since it is written like this and Jiang Yan put it in, it should not be a random usage process.

"How do I flip the five-pointed star if it sinks in? Should I let go and try to pick it out?" The operation described on the note is simple, but when ordinary people use it for the first time, their minds are full of questions.

The ring is not hollow and is worn on the finger, so how can the five-pointed star be flipped?

Even if you take off a ring like this, I guess the five-pointed star cannot be turned over.

Si Cizhan looked at him pressing the thumb of the ring on his index finger and said, "Since it is for self-defense in times of danger, it should be a continuous movement."

Since it is a continuous action, Jiang Xiaowen can now flip the five-pointed star by pressing his index finger, that is, moving the five-pointed star up and down or in the direction of the thumb.

Si Cizhan performed these movements himself and said, "This is the most convenient one."

After pressing the five-pointed star, use your fingertips to move the five-pointed star toward your thumb.

Jiang Xiaowen, who was playing with the five-pointed star, also reacted: "Let me try."

With a press and a push of their hands, it was extremely smooth, and the two saw that the five-pointed star on the ring really turned over.

They didn't have time to think about why the five-pointed star could flip on such a ring. Their attention was immediately attracted by the extra object in Jiang Xiaowen's hand. In just less than a second, the gun appeared in Jiang Xiaowen's hand.

The two were stunned.

There was a long silence in the room, so quiet that even their breathing could be heard clearly.

Jiang Xiaowen felt like he had lost his voice. He opened his mouth and it took him a while to find his voice and speak: "This...?"

Si Cizhan would also pass the trial. He hid the shock in his eyes and looked at Jiang Xiaowen: "Do it again."

"Okay!" Jiang Xiaowen pressed the five-pointed star button again, and the gun in his hand disappeared.

The two exchanged glances, and saw the same solemnity and surprise in each other's eyes.

"This gun is in this ring."

Even though this conclusion is too bizarre, this is what they saw.

"It's getting dark." Si Cizhan looked out the window, "Let's go back to the unit and test this gun."

Jiang Xiaowen agreed, but they needed someone to cover them when they returned to the army. "I'll go notify them. Is this considered an emergency mission?"

"Yeah." Si Cizhan nodded.

Jiang Xiaowen walked to the door wearing the ring, but then felt something was wrong, so he went back to take off the ring and put it on the table, letting Si Cizhan look at it.

"This is my birthday present, don't even think about keeping it for yourself," he said. "Aunt Song also said that Yanyan took three days off to make it herself."

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaowen felt complicated again.

How did this happen? Is it haunted?

When Si Ci Zhan heard that this was done by Jiang Yan herself, Jiang Yan's appearance appeared in his mind. At this moment, it was difficult for him to sort out what he was thinking.

However, thinking about the future of this gift, he felt a little gloating: "It will soon be the army's birthday present."

Such a good thing, no matter whether it is haunted or not, even if this gun is a useless piece of junk, this ring must become research material.

"Don't expose my sister first. If the research institute can handle it--" Jiang Xiaowen said.

Si Cizhan nodded. He had the same idea as Jiang Xiaowen.

It's already like this with Mr. Codename. If Jiang Yan is exposed, wouldn't that put Jiang Yan in an even more dangerous situation?

A thought suddenly flashed through his mind: Could there be any connection between Jiang Yan and Mr. Code Name?

What followed was a connection of many clues about the two people.

Finally, he narrowed his eyes slightly, picked up the ring on the table, took out the gun inside according to the description on the note, sat down and carefully disassembled the gun and reassembled it.

During this process, his emotions gradually calmed down and he basically came to a conclusion in his mind.

"Lu Ze..." After putting the gun back into the ring, Si Ci Zhan slowly uttered the name thoughtfully.

……

In October, the nights in Xiaoyu City were already freezing cold.

The troops were in a remote area far away from the city, and the mountain wind made the entire camp even colder.

Soldiers standing night guard have to wear a few more layers of clothes under their winter uniforms to keep warm.

Several gunshots were heard from the direction of the training ground, but they seemed not very clear. The soldiers patrolling on duty in the army immediately rushed to the scene and saw two people on the training ground.

Jiang Xiaowen greeted them and said:

"We got a new weapon, let's test this pistol to see if it works."

Knowing that some of their team members had gone out on missions during this period, the soldiers on duty nodded immediately, thinking that they had obtained more advanced weapons from foreign technology for their mission.

At the moment, I was a little reluctant to move my feet, wanting to see what this weapon was like.

The lighting in the training ground is not particularly bright, but it is completely sufficient for the soldiers undergoing training, just like in the daytime.

After understanding the situation, the soldier on duty hesitated for a moment and then left.

Those on duty have their own tasks, just like Si Cizhan and Jiang Xiaowen have their own tasks, which cannot be delayed by other things.

After they left, Jiang Xiaowen walked over to Si Cizhan and asked:

"How does it feel?"

"Very good," Si Cizhan glanced at the gun in his hand, "It's much better than the new gun I was given. Didn't you notice that the sound of the gun is also quieter?"

"Found it." Jiang Xiaowen nodded, then walked a few steps towards the target and saw clearly the traces of bullets on it.

This was not entirely because of his good eyesight, but also because the bullet hole was too obvious.

The shot that Si Ci Zhan had just fired hit the bull's eye. The bullet penetrated the entire target, leaving a hollow hole. The hole was visibly larger than the bullet, and there were traces of being pulled on the edge.

Jiang Xiaowen was stunned. "It's so powerful?" He added, his astonishment barely suppressed, "This gun has a minimum range of 100 meters. Step back."

Knowing that the pistol could be stored in the ring, both of them felt that the gun's range shouldn't be too far, and perhaps its accuracy might be a bit of a problem.

Otherwise, this gun is too perfect, right?

This ring was so magical that it took them a long time to digest and accept it. If it was really made by Jiang Yan herself, then to be able to achieve this level, she must have put a lot of thought into the ring.

In all likelihood, a pistol is just an ornamental piece.

Si Ci Zhan disassembled the pistol and was sure that it was not missing any parts. It even had a few more small parts than the pistols he knew, so he concluded that it could be used.

As for how useful it would be, he couldn't evaluate or judge it, and he would only know after trying it.

Because the two underestimated the gun, the range they chose for their first shot was the most basic fifty meters.
