A handsome guy rushed up.
His name is Zhao Sicheng, and he is a colleague in the same group as Shi Ran. They both work under Professor Chen, but they are not in the same group.
Their relationship is usually okay. When their group eats in the cafeteria at noon, they always sit at a long table.
"Morning, you're not late. Why are you running in such a hurry?" Shi Ran looked at him in a hurry and asked in confusion.
Zhao Sicheng gasped, patted Shi Ran's shoulder with one hand, and said, "Aren't we chasing you? What's the relationship between the two of us? We agreed to work together."
Shi Ran analyzed his words carefully to prevent himself from thinking wrongly.
Judging from the last sentence, "We agreed to work together," his pursuit should be literal, and there is probably some kind of private agreement between them.
They are not in the same team, so she can't promise him to reveal her team's research results to him, right?
"Yeah, then why are you so anxious to find something from me?" Shi Ran asked pretending to be normal.
The memories given to her were indeed filtered, and she didn't even remember any cooperation with this person.
Zhao Sicheng combed his fresh and thick hair with his fingers, and then said with high spirits: "Let me tell you, Professor Chen went to the south to collect data in person. It will take at least two days to come back. We can sneak into Chu State secretly." The professor’s laboratory is here to find out the cause of his death!”
When Shi Ran heard this, he looked to the left and right, but fortunately there was no one there now.
They were probably the only two who went to work on the same spot.
This matter of finding out the truth about Chu Jiang Bai's death is obviously going to be done in secret, right?
And how could this person know this?
And from his tone, it didn't sound like he was helping me investigate, but like he himself had received this task.
"This is a good opportunity!" Shi Ran looked excited, his eyes filled with money, "I seem to see the balance waving to me!"
Zhao Sicheng was about the same. He said with infinite emotion: "That's 700,000!"
Seven hundred thousand? Shi Ran raised her eyebrows. The price was the same as Chu Mo's. As long as the truth about Chu Jiangbai's death was investigated, Chu Mo would pay the balance of 700,000.
It seems that Chu Mo is still a very fair person, and the price given to them is the same.
The person who looked happy because of the 700,000 yuan one second was wilted the next second, like an eggplant beaten by frost.
Shi Ran couldn't help but feel nervous when she looked at him.
It seems that along with the good news, there is also bad news.
Zhao Sicheng looked at Shi Ran with dull eyes, and said with trembling lips: "Maybe we shouldn't be greedy for this money, Zhan Zhou. I didn't see anyone yesterday. He took Chu Mo's money one day earlier than me."
Shi Ran's eyelids twitched. It sounded like Zhan Zhou must have had an accident.
And if this accident is actually inevitable, then is the deadline of this task the time from Zhan Zhou receiving the money to disappearing?
No wonder Zhao Sicheng was like this. He finally waited for the opportunity to sneak into Professor Chu Jiangbai's laboratory, but the day of his death came.
Shi Ran sympathized with him quite a bit, reached out and patted his shoulder, comforting him: "Don't be too pessimistic, maybe things are not that bad."
Shi Ran felt that his "death date" should not have come yet. After all, the condition for ordinary clearance of this dungeon is 20 days, which means that the red line of the script should be around fifteen or six days.
She should be safe now.
When Zhao Sicheng heard Shi Ran's comforting words, he raised his head and looked at Shi Ran with clear eyes and some doubts.
He said word by word: "Why don't you seem very worried? You only collected Chu Mu's money half a day later than me."
Hearing this, Shi Ran even forgot about her disguise, and her eyes widened!
Doesn't this mean that her death date is also today?
How is this possible? Isn't this unreasonable?
Shi Ran's cheeks twitched, took a long breath, and said calmly: "Everything is just speculation. Maybe Zhan Zhou is just on a business trip to collect data..."
Shi Ran didn't even believe what she said, so she wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.
Suddenly I felt like I was in the zone.
She and Zhao Sicheng continued to walk to the laboratory building.
Zhao Sicheng seemed to be alive again. He said half-jokingly: "We have such a good relationship, you can't hide anything you discover from me!"
"Of course!" Shi Ran agreed and nodded repeatedly.
She doesn't dare to offend anyone now. If she is not careful, she will die.
In the weird world, there is no reason to explain. After all, anyone who runs a red light can be crushed to death by everyone's consensus.
After entering the building, two robots at the door greeted them friendly.
"Dr. Shi, Dr. Zhao, good morning!"
"Hello!"
"morning!"
The floor their group was on was on the fifth floor, and the two of them took the elevator up.
After getting out of the elevator, Zhao Sicheng pulled Shi Ran away from the surveillance camera, and then took out a precision instrument from his bag and gave it to Shi Ran.
He said worriedly: "I got this from the black market at a high price. It can be used to copy the identity card. You first take this thing to Professor Chen's laboratory and find Professor Chu's identity card in the second drawer of the desk. Then copy it." After carving is done, we will meet at the entrance of Professor Chu’s laboratory.”
"Okay." Shi Ran agreed immediately, took the thing and put it into his briefcase.
The two of them, one on the left and the other on the right, headed towards their team's laboratory.
When Shi Ran arrived at the laboratory where he was, he found that the door was wide open and Tong Haonan had already started working inside.
"Good morning!" Shi Ran greeted him the way he remembered.
"Good morning." Tong Haonan said without raising his head.
Shi Ran couldn't help but envy him. It was great to do experiments quietly, so why did he take on such a life-threatening job?
She put her briefcase on her desk, took out the device that could copy ID cards, hid it in her suit jacket, and then made an excuse to go out.
"Ouch, I must be hungry after breakfast. I have to go to the toilet."
With that said, Shi Ran held the instrument and walked out of the laboratory door to the laboratory of their team leader, Professor Chen.
In fact, Tong Haonan didn't even look at Shi Ran. He was still buried in a pile of reports.
When Shi Ran arrived at the door of Professor Chen's laboratory, he found that the door was wide open, and Professor Chen was not there.
What a great opportunity!
I have to say that Zhao Sicheng is a really awesome teammate.
She opened the second drawer of Professor Chen's desk that Zhao Sicheng had mentioned, and sure enough she found Professor Chu's ID card inside.
With this ID card, you can enter and leave Professor Chu's laboratory without hindrance.
Shi Ran quickly fiddled with it and used the instrument Zhao Sicheng gave her to copy Chu Jiangbai's identity card.
Chu Jiangbai's laboratory was the first scene of his death.
According to the information in his memory, Chu Jiangbai was found dead in the laboratory the next day. The laboratory space was closed, the door was locked, and the only identity card that could open the door was in the laboratory.
