Volume Eight: Empty Mine

"I will report this matter to Mr. Wang, so I won't trouble you to go there. After all, you are too busy these days, and you still need to have a good rest. If there is nothing else, I will go back and report to work first." Zhang Yan When he was about to get up and leave, there was a flash of panic in his eyes. Perhaps, just as Police Officer F speculated, he had something to do with Li Fei's death.

"Don't leave in such a hurry, it's rare to come here, why don't you go back after drinking the coffee?" Xue Qian had already delivered the brewed coffee to the two of them, and she said to Zhang Yan, "Don't let this cup go The candy is yours." Xue Qian smiled sweetly, and Zhang Yan also smiled in response.

"Stationmaster Xue is right." Officer F also took a sip of coffee and said to Zhang Yan in front of him, "I feel like we hit it off with you. I don't know why, but there is a special feeling in you." Intimacy, I think you should sit with me more." Officer F put his left hand on the table while speaking, and tapped the table with his index and middle fingers rhythmically.

"It's really hard to turn down the kindness," Zhang Yan twitched his nose, as if he was moved by the two people's words, he still sat on the chair and picked up the coffee Xue Qian sent, "Then I will stay a little longer Bar."

"Ah, I didn't expect that now you not only like beautiful girls, but also handsome young men..." Long Jiao didn't know when she came here, and her mouth began to tease again.

"I really don't know what to say about you," Officer F almost spit out his coffee, "What do you think about all day long?"

"Huh." Long Jiao snorted, sat down on her own, gave Police Officer F a supercilious look and turned her head away, but her words made several people present feel uncomfortable, and the air became abnormal for a while. Quiet, even awkward.

"Oh, I've worked so hard outside, and you all sit here comfortably, isn't that inappropriate?" The person who spoke was actually Gao Jian, and everyone was still in the embarrassment just now, but no one noticed that she came back .

"Heh, you're still living in such a petty bourgeoisie, drinking coffee and chatting? You really..." When Gao Jian saw Zhang Yan, she stopped and didn't continue talking. After a while, she continued, "I'm sorry Ah, I didn't know anyone else was there, I thought..."

"It's okay, you don't mind, this is Mr. Wang's first assistant - Zhang Yan, he is here to discuss the case with Officer F." Xue Qian explained to Gao Jian.

"Uh, I'm sorry, Mr. Zhang," Gao Jian brushed the hair around his ears, like a shy little girl, "I'm joking with my friends, I hope you don't mind."

"It doesn't matter," Zhang Yan smiled at Gao Jian, with a friendly expression on his face, "I didn't notify you in advance, it was my mistake."

"Yo Yo Yo, it seems that the two of you have met your eyes!" Long Jiao said in a tone of fearing that the world would not be chaotic.

"Do you know each other?" Officer F ignored Long Jiao's joke, raised his eyes and asked Gao Jian and Zhang Yan while drinking coffee.

"No, I don't know each other." Gao Jian and Zhang Yan denied at the same time.

"We met for the first time." Gao Jian added.

"Oh, seeing that you guys have such a tacit understanding, I thought you were old friends?" Officer F slowly put down the cup, reached out for the lighter, "Excuse me, I have to go smoke a cigarette." After finishing speaking, he walked towards the bathroom go.

"Hey, by the way, Long Jiao help me go to the kitchen to make a spicy chicken, I like the taste of your cooking, thank you." Police officer F who walked halfway turned his head and said to Long Jiao.

"Cut, who do you think you are ordering food?" Long Jiao complained to Xue Qian, "Can I go to the kitchen, there should be ingredients I need here?"

"It doesn't matter, couples should tolerate each other," Xue Qian looked at Long Jiao and replied, "The kitchen should have all the ingredients, so I'll take you there."

So Xue Qian took Long Jiao to find the chef and asked him about the ingredients, which happened to be available here.

"Because it is stationed here for a long time, and the transport planes cannot come and go frequently, there are a lot of ingredients stored here. Although the current fresh-keeping technology is not the same as before, there is still some gap in terms of fresh ingredients. People with a tricky mouth You can still taste the difference." The chef explained to Long Jiao.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work. Just tell me how to operate it. I'll do the rest. He can't eat other people's cooking." After Long Jiao finished speaking, the chef taught her the operation method. , because there are not many people here, in order to use the only space as much as possible, the space in the kitchen is also very tight, Xue Qian and the chef left after confirming that Long Jiao can operate independently, Xue Qian returned to her office, and The chef took time to check the remaining ingredients in the storage room.

"How is it? Did they suspect you?" Zhang Yan put down his coffee and asked Gao Jian without raising his eyelids.

"Not yet." Gao Jian seemed a little at a loss, "Everything is going well, how is your side?"

"I am proceeding according to the plan here. No one can stop what the Xingchen Lab wants to get, not even the Century Research Institute." Zhang Yan said firmly.

"Oh," Gao Jian said perfunctorily, "your hand..."

"It doesn't matter, my hand will recover soon. Didn't the F police officer have merged with 'Jupiter Sha' without any adverse reactions, and has become stronger. We tricked him this time to get the first hand Once the experiment is mature, I will be the first to conduct the experiment on myself." Zhang Yan looked around while talking, and no one noticed their conversation.

"Then why do you have to come here? Isn't it possible to do it on Earth? Why pay such a high price?" Gao Jian was referring to Li Fei's death and the accident at the No. [-] space station.

"Because 'Jupiter Sha' will change when it arrives on the earth, and its performance will be reduced. Only here can we make it play its strongest state, and," Zhang Yan said here, he glanced at the door of the bathroom. There was still no movement, apparently Officer F hadn't finished smoking, "We don't plan to let him go back."

"What?" Gao Jian was surprised when he heard the news. She suddenly raised her head to look at the familiar yet unfamiliar person in front of her, but she still let her reason overcome her emotions, and she lowered her voice, "Are you crazy? He is different from the researchers of the One Century Research Institute, he is a policeman, to be precise, he is not an ordinary policeman, if you kill him or imprison him, have you thought about the consequences?"

"But if you don't do this, wouldn't it be too wasteful to ask him to come here? Do you know how long I have been planning this matter? How much have I invested? My future status in the Star Lab will depend entirely on this action " Zhang Yan's voice became cold and serious, "If anyone dares to hinder me, I will definitely eradicate him, even if it is you."

Zhang Yan didn't give Gao Jian another chance to speak. He got up and went directly to Xue Qian's office, as if saying goodbye to her. He was going back to the No. [-] space station.

"I didn't expect you to become like this," Gao Jian said to himself while looking in the direction of Xue Qian's office, "You were not like this before, you have changed since your accident! Are you still my friend? Zhang Yan? I once promised you that I would reattach your broken arm, but I don’t think you are allowed to do something like take someone’s life.” (End)
