Chapter 597: Chapter 244: System Calls Me to Save the Day (Part 3)
He walked up to He Tiantian and asked in as gentle a voice as possible.
He Tiantian pretended to be puzzled and nodded, "I am He Tiantian, but who are you? You, you—"
Her gaze fell on the bulging waist of the thin, dark man, as if to say: Isn’t that illegal, you know?
The thin, dark man hooked his lips, pulled out a booklet from his top pocket, opened the cover, and showed He Tiantian the page with the photo, "This is my ID."
He Tiantian glanced at it, uh-oh, she hadn’t guessed wrong; this person was indeed from the military.
"Hello, Major Yuan Hao, but I don’t know you!"
He Tiantian put on a relieved expression, but her eyes were still full of question marks.
"You know Professor Chen from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, don’t you?"
The thin, dark man, or as He Tiantian had referred to him, "Major Yuan Hao," gently reminded her.
"Professor Chen? I know him, are you, you his friend?"
He Tiantian also smiled, her delicate little face full of trust and expectation.
"Not exactly," Yuan Hao shook his head, then hurriedly explained, "but I am here this time, and it’s somewhat related to Professor Chen!"
He didn’t rush to take He Tiantian somewhere quiet to talk but instead sought to further allay her suspicions.
"Half a month ago, did you send Professor Chen a letter? It had some design blueprints—"
Before Yuan Hao could finish, He Tiantian showed a sudden realization, "Oh, I know!"
She moved closer to Yuan Hao and whispered, "You are from the military, and you want to ask me about those blueprints?"
Yuan Hao couldn’t help but hook his lips again at He Tiantian’s secret and excited demeanor.
Especially the words "the military." Why did it feel like something out of a web novel with a chunibyo vibe?!
"We do want to understand some matters. Our base is in the Provincial City. Would it be convenient for you to go there?"
When Yuan Hao spoke, he reverted to a stern and solemn demeanor.
He Tiantian thought for a moment and said with some difficulty, "I still have classes now; I’m only free on the weekend."
"Then this weekend, we’ll come to pick you up!"
Yuan Hao, wanting to completely dispel any of He Tiantian’s concerns, added, "We’ve already improved upon the blueprints you provided, and the results are quite promising, but there are some things where we still need you there in person to help out!"
So, they were not fraudsters, nor did they have any ill intentions.
He Tiantian nodded vigorously, "Okay! I understand!"
Actually, as soon as she saw Yuan Hao and the others, He Tiantian was sure they were not bad people.
That kind of righteous aura that seemed to emanate from their bones, let alone bad guys, even ordinary good people wouldn’t have it.
It was the unique temperament only possessed by true soldiers defending their homeland.
"Should we take this man back with us for a thorough interrogation?"
After agreeing on a time, Yuan Hao pointed to Duan Yong, who was being tightly restrained by his companions.
Duan Yong struggled fiercely. He wanted to say something, but those who had arrived were experienced and efficient elites. The first thing they did after restraining Duan Yong was to dislocate his jaw.
With his jaw dislocated, Duan Yong couldn’t even explain if he wanted to.
And Duan Nana, hiding in the corner, was so frightened she didn’t know where she had run off to the moment Yuan Hao drew his weapon.
"Great, thank you, Major Yuan!"
He Tiantian felt that people like Duan Yong, who carried an evil Qi, indeed warranted a thorough investigation.
Perhaps they might even discover something from him.
Just like that, He Tiantian and Yuan Hao exchanged contact information, then He Tiantian watched as Yuan Hao and his people left.
Brushing off her clothes, He Tiantian felt delighted inside, "As expected, the National Daddy is the most trustworthy."
She needed to continue to work hard in the hopes of becoming a key figure under National Daddy’s protection!
He Tiantian made up her mind, then trotted all the way to the small restaurant at the front gate of the school.
Zhou Zixuen and Ma Siqi had already ordered the food and were just waiting for He Tiantian to join them for the meal.
After He Tiantian arrived, without saying much, the three of them started eating.
While eating, they didn’t forget to share some school gossip or entertainment news, discussing topics that were trivial and relaxed.
The small restaurant was filled with students and nearby residents eating and chatting, laughing and drinking—a true depiction of the lively human world.
He Tiantian thoroughly enjoyed this feeling.
Student Xiao D didn’t have the heart to interrupt, but the situation was urgent and couldn’t be delayed.
"Tiantian, there’s an urgent remedial mission, do you want to take it?"
Student Xiao D called out with caution deep within the sea of consciousness.
"Remedial mission? What mission is that?"
He Tiantian was puzzled and quickly asked.
"Uh, it’s, it’s..."
Student Xiao D stuttered, "There’s a novel world where the writer had an accident during a ’reverse’ plot twist, and the Small World is about to collapse, needing someone to save the day!"
