The three of them stared at the small black box for a while, then decided to open it and take a look.
The box was locked, but it was not a problem for them. With their ability, a small copper lock was easily opened.
It can be seen that Bai Chen was wary of some people when delivering the box.
This makes people even more curious about what is inside the box.
However, when they saw what was inside the box, the three of them were dumbfounded. I saw only a letter and a book.
After such a solemn delivery, what on earth does Bai Chen want to do?
Lin Yan opened the envelope, read it briefly, and then his eyes widened.
Shui Sheng and Hong Ling also looked over and saw that their expressions were exactly the same as Lin Yan's, they were both frightened.
Bai Chen's handwritten letter was concise and concise, and it was not even full on a piece of light paper.
But the content is shocking.
She discovered a mysterious pothole in the southwest of Nanhai Port City that glowed. After personally inspecting it, she found that the pothole went straight to the bottom of the sea, but it was not flooded by sea water.
The book in the box was found in a pothole, and the contents inside are incomprehensible.
In order to understand the situation in the potholes, Bai Chen used local materials to study and found that the potholes contained a special substance that could block the conduction of light and heat, and the most special thing was that it could block mental power.
This substance is a natural restraint of mental power, and is different from the materials researched by the Institute of Materials Science and Technology.
The small black box is an artificial material developed by the Materials Institute, specifically used to block mental exploration. It’s expensive, and there are currently less than ten in the entire league.
The book looked old, with a silvery white color, and an inexplicable mysterious color. The material could not be identified.
After regaining consciousness, the three of them all stretched out their hands towards the palm-sized book.
Lin Yan moved quickly and was the first to touch it, "You two give way, I will take it out and look at it together."
Shui Sheng and Hong Ling immediately took back their hands after hearing this. They were just anxious and wanted to know what was in the book.
The book was opened, and a completely unfamiliar composition of dotted and line drawings had no resemblance to the text they were using now, and was completely incomprehensible.
The two looked at Lin Yan expectantly. Shui Sheng said first, "Lin Yan, do you understand?"
The characters they knew were all taught by Lin Yan. She knew the most, and she was the only one who had a higher chance of knowing them.
Lin Yan shook his head, she didn't recognize him either.
Then, she heard Fat Bao's voice and hurriedly entered the science and technology museum.
A picture similar to that of a book was displayed on the display screen. Before Lin Yan had time to rejoice, he saw a notice marked next to it. He did not have enough permissions to view it.
Lin Yan had never been so lost as at this moment. The huge gap was really devastating.
It's fine if she can't find it, but to tell her that she can find it but not be able to read it is even more head-scratching.
"Pang Bao, thank you." The efficiency is so high and the reminder is timely.
Fat Bao: "You're welcome, this is what Fat Bao should do."
Lin Yan: "...What conditions must be met to have permission to read it?"
Fat Bao: "Can't tell, it's triggered randomly."
At this moment, Lin Yan felt that Fat Bao was playing with her. How could he have such weird authority. This was the first time she encountered such a situation since the establishment of the science and technology museum.
Fat Bao felt aggrieved and said, "Pang Bao never tells lies and will not lie."
Lin Yan was afraid that her blood pressure would rise if she continued talking, so she hurriedly exited the science and technology museum. She decided not to come in for ten days, she needed time to relax.
"Lin Yan, what were you thinking about just now? Why didn't you respond after calling me several times?" Hong Ling looked at Lin Yan worriedly.
Ever since she shook her head, her expression had changed. She seemed to have lost her soul. She was dull and did not respond to calls.
It's hard to explain what happened at the Science and Technology Museum, so Lin Yan hurriedly said, "I was so absorbed in thinking that I didn't hear it. What do you think the book would be about?"
Hong Ling: "Martial arts secrets? Mysterious techniques? Or is it just a graffiti?"
Lin Yan: "..."
There are too many possibilities to judge.
Shuisheng simply said, "Don't worry about it. Since you don't know him, there's no need to make too many guesses. You'll find out when the time comes. What I'm more curious about is the hole that goes straight to the bottom of the sea."
Lin Yan's eyes lit up, "It must be unusual for Bai Chen to pay special attention to it and find potholes with special materials. I want to explore it myself."
Shuisheng and Hong Ling looked at each other and had to admit that Lin Yan was the most suitable place to go.
Shuisheng: "I'll go with you."
"No." Lin Yan and Hong Ling said at the same time.
Lin Yan: "Sun City must have you here." If she leaves, Shui Sheng must stay.
Hong Ling: "Rationally speaking, neither you nor Lin Yan can leave. But regarding the potholes, it's best for Lin Yan to go. Just don't follow."
Shui Sheng glanced at her resentfully, and Hong Ling was shocked, but still insisted on not changing her words.
Lin Yan smiled and said, "If you have any secrets, let's talk about it at home. By the way, Hong Ling, Hua Min just got some good news. Do you want to know?"
Hong Ling nodded, wondering what good news Hua Min could have.
Lin Yan smiled evilly and said, "Hua Min is pregnant, you two have to work hard." After saying that, he rubbed oil on his soles and ran away.
Hong Ling stared blankly at her walking away without reacting. After a while, she turned to look at Shui Sheng, "Is it true?"
Shui Sheng: "Not sure yet. When I first went to find Lin Yan, I did see Hua Min running away in a hurry. She should have gone to the hospital. Why don't we go there and take a look?"
"How can Lin Yan be so sure? According to what you said, Hua Min's client doesn't even know about it."
"Hua Min really didn't know, it was Lin Yan who reminded her." Shuisheng didn't know what to say to Lin Yan, so he used his mental strength to check what Hua Min was doing.
Hong Ling immediately said: "Let's go see Hua Min."
Hua Min is pregnant. The news is like a blow to the head, making people's scalp numb. Hong Ling is eager to know the exact result.
It’s not surprising that she thought so. A few years later, no one had any children, and everyone was used to the grand wedding of four people held on the same day.
Hua Min suddenly became pregnant, and Hong Ling knew without even thinking that she would definitely attract attention.
As I walked, I thought about how to deal with it. In fact, she and Shuisheng had not planned to have children too early, so they had postponed it until now.
Shuisheng knew what she was thinking. He held Hong Ling's hand and whispered: "Don't worry, I'm here. If you want to have a baby, you can have a baby. If you don't want to, don't."
Hong Ling was moved and looked at him intently, "Do you want a child?"
"Do you want it?" Shuisheng asked instead, "The child will be conceived in your body. It is you who will bear the pain of childbirth. You have the right to make this decision."
"But I want to know what you think?" Hong Ling insisted. They had discussed delaying having children before, but now they are both in their thirties and their bodies are in good shape after training.
The current environment is also suitable and it is a good time to have a baby.
Over the years, families on both sides have given birth to children many times, and the two agreed and remained unmoved.
But at this moment, Hong Ling suddenly felt that the time had come.
When the two rushed to the hospital, Hua Min had already finished the examination and left.
Hong Ling: "Shui Sheng, you go back to work first, and I'll go visit Hua Min."
The doctor just confirmed that Hua Min is indeed pregnant.
Shuisheng shook his head: "Hua Min happened suddenly. She may have gone to see Shi Zhi. You should also go back to work. We will go to their house together in the evening."
Hong Ling thought for a while and decided that this arrangement was the most reasonable and nodded in agreement.
News in Sun City was delivered like a gust of wind, and within two hours, the news of Hua Min's pregnancy spread throughout the country.
Sure enough, as Hong Ling thought, she was mentioned the most.
This afternoon was destined to be an uneventful day.
Lin Yan returned to the office with the black box in his arms, took out the book and studied it carefully, but he had no clue.
She entered the Science and Technology Museum without giving up, hoping to find any clues, but was disappointed. Before she could collect her thoughts, she was startled by an explosion.
The body subconsciously rushed out and ran towards the source of the explosion.
In the Nancheng area, thick smoke could be seen billowing from a distance, and Lin Yan had an ominous premonition.
Nancheng is an industrial area, where people are densely populated during the day, and the impact of the explosion is immeasurable.
With steps like wind and body like lightning, Lin Yan rushed to the scene five minutes after hearing the explosion.
It was determined that the location of the explosion was a chemical factory, whose main business was the production of various chemical raw materials. It was a factory under the jurisdiction of the Institute of Materials Science and Technology.
The chemical factory is the most dangerous place besides the gunpowder factory, and many dangerous materials are concentrated here.
The security team rushed to put out the fire and rescue people as soon as possible, and surrounding factories also mobilized manpower to help.
Lin Yan gave the order to the security captain who came to go to Xuanhui immediately to find someone to rescue him.
After saying that, she immediately rushed in and quickly used her mental power to prop up a protective shield for herself.
There is no time to hesitate and hesitate, saving people is the first priority.
When people who arrived saw Lin Yan rushing into the fire to save people, they all shouted, trying to stop him. How could she enter a fire to save people.
Nancheng security captain Xia Liang's outstretched hand froze in the air. He wanted to hold the person's hand, but his reaction was half a beat too slow.
Thinking of Lin Yan's serious tone and solemn entrustment when he gave the order just now, Xia Liang asked his subordinates to go to Xuanhui to notify him. He shouted orders to maintain order and arrange rescue.
Xia Liang was worried about looking into the fire from time to time while he was busy. Who would dare to rush into such a big fire?
But Lin Yan didn't hesitate and rushed in without hesitation.
Time seemed to stretch out all of a sudden, very slowly. Xia Liang didn't know how many times he looked over, but he still didn't see anyone, only the flames that were getting stronger and stronger.
A few minutes later, Shi Zhi and Shui Sheng arrived one after another. Xia Liang suddenly found the backbone and quickly explained the situation just now without waiting for them to ask.
After the two of them listened, Shi Zhi only had time to say, "I'll go in first, and you stay to take charge of the overall situation."
Xia Liang's face turned pale, why did another one rush in? He looked at Shui Sheng, looking like he was about to cry, "Will they be okay?"
Shui Sheng said calmly: "Don't worry, if you see people from the Xuanhui coming, call me immediately. You lead the security team to blow away the fire and put out the fire."
Looking at the flames that were burning more and more intensely, Shui Sheng concealed the worry in his eyes and looked around again. It looked like he was busy, but the rescuers were all directed by someone, and it was not a mess.
He looked back at the way he had come, hoping that the Xuanhui people would arrive soon.
Lin Yan had been inside for almost twenty minutes, and if there was no one to support her, she probably wouldn't be able to hold on.
The explosion was loud and could be heard close to the south city, but the military headquarters was in the north city, which was relatively far away. At this time, Lan Yue was inspecting the military camp to review the training of the soldiers.
It was Xuan Hui who sent someone to inform her that she learned about the situation. She immediately ordered the first team of the fifth regiment of the First Army to dispatch for rescue.
When the order was given, she took the lead and rushed to the scene of the incident as quickly as possible.
When Shui Sheng saw Lan Yun, he almost cried with joy. He immediately said, "Lin Yan has been in for half an hour. Go and help."
Lan Yue said nothing and rushed in immediately.
Later, people from Xuanhui arrived. Some of them rushed into the fire to save people, while the rest stayed outside to help put out the fire.
When Lan Yue rushed in, she quickly found Shi Zhi, who held up a protective shield to gather the survivors together.
Lin Yan, on the other hand, walked through the sea of fire and kept saving people.
Lan Yue was sure that Shi Zhi could still hold on, and immediately rushed into the sea of fire to search for survivors.
When the Xuanhui practitioners came in, Shi Zhi immediately directed them to help send out the survivors in the protective shield for rescue.
These people were more or less injured. The explosion happened so suddenly and unprepared that the workers in the factory had no time to escape.
As long as there was anyone left alive, Lin Yan and Lan Yue would find them.
The fire burned for more than three hours before being put out. According to statistics of the casualties caused by the fire, 28 people died, 56 were seriously injured, and 29 were slightly injured.
At around nine o'clock in the evening, the hospital was crowded, and all doctors in Sun City were urgently mobilized to help rescue the injured.
A temporary accident investigation team was formed, and five arbiters gathered together. This was the largest casualty accident since the establishment of the alliance.
Lin Yan was the first to rush into the fire scene to rescue people. While searching and rescuing, Pang Bao recorded the situation at the scene.
At this time, relevant information about the chemical plant was placed on the table in front of the five people. There are factory plans, personnel lists, production varieties, etc.
These information are all obtained from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Government Affairs. When a chemical plant is established, relevant information must be submitted and must be reviewed before it can be opened.
Lin Yan frowned and looked at the chemical plant's architectural drawings and production varieties, carefully recalling everything he saw at the scene.
Her face became uglier as she looked at it, and she said: "I was the first to go in and found that this was the source of the explosion. But judging from the drawings, this is the workers' living area, so it shouldn't be the first to explode and catch fire."
Shuisheng: "If it is confirmed that this is the first explosion point, it really shouldn't be the case. The workers' living area is usually a place for eating and resting. Except for the coal used for cooking, there is nothing flammable or explosive."
Huang Ying: "I just asked those who were slightly injured. Lin Yan is right. It did explode first in the living area, and then caused the chemical plant warehouse to explode, causing a large area of fire."
Shui Sheng: "So, there should be explosive things in the living area, but coal should not be used. Stoves for cooking are used by every household. There has been no explosion accident."
Lan Yue said seriously: "Is it possible that the explosives were placed artificially?"
As soon as these words came out, several people's expressions changed. If it is really man-made, the nature of this matter is very bad.
Lin Yan asked solemnly: "Lanyue, why do you think so?"
Lan Yue: "The Special Security Bureau discovered something unusual. Two people from Qushui City and three Yuncheng people had close personal relationships. They secretly made friends with people from various cities. They were listed as key targets for surveillance by the Special Security Bureau. I was thinking, the explosion Maybe it has something to do with them.”
Shi Yong stood up immediately, "I'm going to arrest the person for interrogation."
Lin Yan said coldly: "Don't cause trouble, wait until Lan Yue finishes speaking."
Even if someone wants to be arrested, it won't be his turn. (End of chapter)
