After Yue Hengyi threw a fence-sitter out the door, he turned around and said helplessly, "I must have been blind to think this woman was such a person. If I had brought her back without knowing, then *I* would have been the one in the wrong!"
If the other party had simply been an international student, Yue Hengyi wouldn't have harbored such strong malice. But when Yue Hengyi read Han Juan's application, he was enraged. Such an act of slandering her homeland to gain citizenship in another country was simply unforgivable. Moreover, the status of women in China had long been equal to that of men. Her desperate attempts to prove the low status of Chinese women were instead providing ammunition for other countries to attack China.
The more Yue Hengyi thought about it, the angrier he became. He couldn't believe he had almost been deceived. It was best if such a person never returned to their country, otherwise, they would cause trouble for everyone.
Shen Feng was also quite helpless. He hadn't expected his good intentions to almost lead to a bad deed. After all, who could tell what someone had done just by looking at them? It was a good thing that her disguise had been exposed in time.
With this thought, Shen Feng turned to Kasahara Ranzi and said, "It seems we still need Miss Kasahara to act as a translator. I apologize for the trouble!"
"Lord Shen Fuyao, you are too kind. This is my job, and it is my fortune to be able to accompany you at any time!" Ranzi said humbly.
In reality, Ranzi was overjoyed. Having found Han Juan's weakness, she had decisively acted to drive her away. If Han Juan had stayed, her own opportunities to interact with Shen Feng would have been greatly reduced. Only by removing this obstacle could she fulfill her grandfather's wishes.
Shen Feng suddenly remembered something and quickly asked, "By the way, are there any laboratories in Kagoshima? If so, I'd like to visit one!"
Ranzi quickly nodded and replied, "Yes, if you wish to visit, I will contact them for you immediately. Shall we go tomorrow?"
"That's right, tomorrow!" Shen Feng replied affirmatively, and then the three continued their dinner.
After Han Juan was kicked out of the residence, she was escorted away by security guards. They threw her onto the street and tossed the document bag at her before turning to leave. Han Juan experienced a transformation from heaven to hell. She had been following two superhumans, and when they left, she could have followed them. As long as she returned to her country, it meant safety. But now, Han Juan had been thrown out.
Han Juan looked at the document bag in her hand, wishing she could tear it to shreds. If someone hadn't suddenly delivered this item, how could she have been so easily exposed?
However, looking at the document bag, she couldn't bring herself to tear it. After all, it was something she had worked hard to obtain. If she tore it up, the identity she had almost secured would disappear again.
At this point, Han Juan could only mutter to herself as she walked away, "As long as I don't say I'm from a foreign country, I won't be ostracized. Perhaps, after obtaining a new identity, I can live even better. If a young master from a consortium were to marry me, I wouldn't have to suffer for the rest of my life!"
What was lost could not be regained no matter how much one lamented. Han Juan quickly composed herself and prepared to live with her new identity. A beautiful tomorrow still awaited her.
However, as she passed through a secluded street, a van suddenly drove up. A group of burly men got out of the van, holding rags, and covered Han Juan's mouth and nose. Soon, Han Juan lost consciousness and knew nothing. The other men nimbly put her into a sack and carried her into the van.
As they walked, the men chatted, "Such a beautiful young girl, and she's going to be sent to a pleasure house. What a shame."
"If you think it's a shame, then you should go take care of her business. But who told her to offend the higher-ups? The higher-ups said this woman should never see the light of day again. This is her retribution!"
"There's also a document bag here. What should we do with it?"
"Throw it away. Who cares what it is? It's probably useless to us!"
...
The next day, Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi, along with Ranzi, went out. The driver was already waiting outside. It was a stretched limousine, and inside the car, chilled drinks were readily available, whether it was wine or orange juice.
The interior of the car was also very spacious. If one more person were added, they could even play mahjong inside. There was a table in the center of the limousine.
Shen Feng also brought the meteorite. He casually placed the dark meteorite on the table. Now, he was taking the meteorite to the research institute, also to find out its origin.
Ranzi also kept a cautious eye on the meteorite on the table throughout the journey. If this meteorite originated from the same source as the one that fell into the Pacific Ocean, wouldn't that mean that with this item, they could create an army of superhumans? If that were the case, she would have to find a way to profit from it.
Upon arriving at the research institute, Shen Feng immediately asked for a physicist to begin the research. However, when the physicist appeared and saw the large stone Shen Feng was holding, he immediately asked, "Excuse me, why are you holding a piece of meteoric iron?"
Shen Feng couldn't understand what the physicist was saying. The physicist was a middle-aged man with a receding hairline, who looked weathered.
Fortunately, Shen Feng had Kasahara Ranzi with him. Ranzi quickly translated, "Lord Shen Fuyao, Mr. Morita is asking why you are holding a piece of meteoric iron?"
Shen Feng frowned, pondered for a moment, and asked, "What is meteoric iron? Isn't this a meteorite?"
Professor Morita explained, "There are actually many types of meteorites. Although they are collectively called meteorites, some are meteorites, some are meteoric iron, and some are like glass. And from what I see, what you have in your hand is meteoric iron!"
Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi were speechless after hearing this explanation. They had treated it as a treasure, thinking it was something valuable, but now it seemed to be just a lump of iron, making their efforts in carrying it all this way seem wasted.
"Big brother, it was a miscalculation, wasn't it? We snatched it from the mutated plants, and it's still useless," Yue Hengyi shrugged.
Shen Feng was unwilling to give up. "Let's study it first. Didn't you say there were differences in composition? It can't be all metal elements, can it?"
"Yes, yes, let's study it first. Perhaps there are differences inside the meteorite as well," Professor Morita quickly added.
Next, Morita scanned the meteorite with X-rays, but it was ineffective. He then performed a hardness test, confirming that the exterior of the meteorite was definitely metallic elements. As for the interior, without cutting it open, it was impossible to know what it looked like.
"Then let's cut it open and see. That way, I can give up hope," Shen Feng said helplessly.
They couldn't find a cutting machine at the research institute, especially one capable of cutting a meteorite. In the end, they had to call a giant cutting machine from a nearby factory. After securing the meteorite, the giant blade began to cut. Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi stood at a distance, watching sparks fly as the meteorite was cut in half. The meteorite was so tough that by the time it was cut, the cutting blade was almost ruined.
Shen Feng eagerly stepped forward, ready to examine the cross-sections of both halves of the meteorite. He discovered small white dots inside. Meteoric iron was black and gave a hard impression, but the interior had sesame-sized impurities.
Looking at the dense white dots, Shen Feng suddenly became excited and asked, "Quickly analyze these white impurities for me. Are they extraterrestrial elements!"
Professor Morita was stunned. He hadn't expected the meteoric iron to have so many impurities. Logically, during entry into the atmosphere, due to intense friction, the impurities in the meteoric iron would have been burned off. Yet, here, there were clearly white impurities present in the meteoric iron.
"It's no problem to study its physical properties, but I've never seen what extraterrestrial elements look like before. Even if I get the data, I wouldn't dare to confirm if it's extraterrestrial elements!" Professor Morita said earnestly.
Shen Feng shook his head helplessly, thinking, "It seems I have to spend some money. Fortunately, I came prepared!"
Shen Feng then took out a small glass bottle from his pocket. Inside was some grayish-white powder that looked unremarkable. Anyone else seeing it would likely think it was just chalk dust.
"Use this for a comparative test. Let me tell you, this is extraterrestrial element!" Shen Feng said directly.
"This is extraterrestrial element? How did you get it? Is it real?" Professor Morita tremblingly took the small bottle from Shen Feng. He had never imagined that he would witness such a thing with his own eyes. This powder was the source of the power of superhumans. If he could decipher the principle of extraterrestrial elements, he would surely become world-famous!
"You don't need to know how I got it, and it's not something you should ask. Just do the experiment, and don't ask questions you shouldn't," Shen Feng said sternly. 138 Reading Network
Professor Morita also reacted and quickly nodded in agreement. He knew the power of these two superhumans. Kagoshima was entirely under their control now, and even the army couldn't be their match. For now, he should just focus on the experiment.
Next, Professor Morita carefully scraped about a gram of white powder from the meteorite with tweezers. He then took the powder provided by Shen Feng and the sample to the laboratory. As for the cut meteorite, Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi each took half. If the white impurities were indeed extraterrestrial elements, then Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi would be rich.
Therefore, the meteorite absolutely could not be handled by anyone else.
Professor Morita immediately began the experiment, working from morning until late at night, skipping both lunch and dinner, truly dedicating himself to his work. Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi also waited for the results. As long as they received a positive answer, their wait would be rewarded.
Finally, Professor Morita looked up from the test bench and said, "I have conducted hardness tests, solubility tests, microscopic crystal inspections, and ultraviolet wavelength checks. I can definitively tell you that these two substances are the same material!"
Upon receiving this answer, Shen Feng became extremely excited and said proudly to Yue Hengyi, "See? Isn't big brother experienced? If we hadn't been so persistent, we would have truly missed out on extraterrestrial elements. No wonder the mutated plants grew so quickly in a month. It's all thanks to obtaining extraterrestrial elements that they could mutate and evolve!"
Yue Hengyi quickly said, "What are we waiting for? Let's extract the impurities from the meteoric iron."
"Nonsense! These white powders are the main component, and the meteoric iron is just the impurity!" Shen Feng quickly corrected Yue Hengyi's mistake.
If the white powder were useless material, then it would undoubtedly be an impurity. But now that they knew these white powders were extraterrestrial elements, the black meteoric iron had become the impurity.
"Yes, yes, let's hurry and extract them!" Yue Hengyi also said excitedly.
"Don't forget, you only get a quarter! We agreed on this earlier. Don't think about taking advantage of me!" Shen Feng suddenly remembered something and said to Yue Hengyi.
Yue Hengyi nodded helplessly, "Alright, alright, I won't fight you. I'll just take my quarter!"
Shen Feng regretted it a little. If he had known earlier, he would have taken it all for himself. Now, after getting the benefits, he had to share them with Yue Hengyi, which was truly a shame.
