CHAPTER XXIV. 12
On October 3, 2024, Chonghua Private University in S City, closed area in Houshan.
The dazzling yellow cordon cut off the curious prying eyes of people from all sides, and while the onlookers hesitated to step forward to take a peek, several bold men really couldn't help but want to step into the forbidden area, but they were expelled by the armed soldiers around the cordon.
Today is the third day since the incident, but it is clear that the residual heat of the "Dragon Massacre" has endured as much as the heat of summer.
Not to mention the Internet that has already exploded, the number of tourists who are eager to go to S City in the past few days alone has increased exponentially, and people with a bit of power simply went to their destinations directly on special planes, not to mention the waves of reporters sent by the major media who heard about the change......
It's just that, except for those fish that couldn't be stopped when they first entered S City, all the tourists, reporters and even high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen who rushed to the city were ruthlessly blocked in the suburbs of S City and were not allowed to enter the key forbidden areas.
Let countless people who come from thousands of miles but can't see a miracle sigh, and some of them are ruthless enough to buy a tent and camp in the suburbs, vowing that they must look at it in this life before leaving, otherwise it will be difficult to live in this life.
The original statutory National Day holiday of only three days was forcibly extended to two weeks due to special reasons, during this period, S City needs to repair the damaged buildings as quickly as possible, treat the injured, and by the way, also give the highest biological research team in China ample time to study the area infested by the dragon, try to see if you can find any precious objects.
No matter what it is, even if it is just a footprint or a scale, it is enough to make the Huaxia Biological Department boil at the first time.
Unfortunately, the progress of the biome group is not as good as expected.
The back mountain of Chonghua Private University covers an area of seven hectares, but the altitude is only about 100 meters, but such a not very broad area is a green ecological park that is extremely important for the Chonghua Planning Area and even the entire S City.
Now it is destroyed, but more than half of it has collapsed.
The loess is facing the sky, the vegetation is crooked, and the whole area is as if it has been attacked by a bomb, and it is in ruins.
Under the scorching sun, Xu Zhiguo, the president of the Huaxia Kyoto Institute of Biology, raised his hand full of loess, helped the crooked reading glasses on the bridge of his nose, panting like a cow, sweating like rain, layers of sweat wet his old yellowed white short sleeves, he blinked his already somewhat confused eyes, barely stabilized his crumbling figure, and after a short rest, he turned his head to look at the special commissioner of the National Security Bureau who was busy with his feet on the ground.
"Zhou Yan." Xu Zhiguo's old but dignified voice came, with a hint of obvious exhaustion, "Come here, come to me."
He beckoned to the young man in the prime of life, then found a relatively clean rock, and sat down with his old legs: "Come, sit with me for a while, old fellow."
Zhou Yan grabbed his arms to wipe the sweat from his head, stepped forward in three steps and two steps, sat straight beside Xu Zhiguo with his waist straight, and his face was full of soldier's sternness: "Old Xu."
"Hmm." Xu Zhiguo responded, looked at the rigid face of the young man, and asked kindly, "Zhou Yan, how old is that kid in the family?"
Speaking of family, it made Zhou Yan stretch his eyebrows, and he returned heartily: "Hehe, that bastard boy is eight years old this year, and he is used to being, and he is a demon king of the mixed world." Thinking of Kazuko at home, the contours of his whole face softened.
He took the white towel handed by the others and handed it to the old man beside him familiarly.
Xu Zhiguo wiped his sweat and continued: "It's a kid, you should be so confused!" He turned his head to look at the white clouds slowly drifting in the sky, and his tone was obviously nostalgic, "The previous Yun family kid was just a radish head a little taller than a stool...... It's only been a few years......"
But I will never see you again. The two of them slowly added in their hearts.
The so-called things are not people, but that's it.
Zhou Yan gathered the smile on his face, and his eyebrows were a little dim: "Brother Yun is an admirable real man, if he is still here, his child is afraid that he will be very old."
His heir, presumably the tiger father has no dog son, and he is definitely a first-class expert.
The mountain-like man and the wind-like woman have long become the swan song in the hearts of all those who know that period of the past.
In this world, there will never be a second Yun Chengyu and a second Guan Qinyin...... Regardless of the rights and wrongs of the beginning, all of them are disqualified from beaking.
Zhou Yan turned his head to look at the already old Xu Lao, an old man who had made outstanding contributions to Huaxia's biological research, who had paid a lot for that pair of beautiful people, and treated Yun Chengyu like a parent, and has always supported him to chase his heart.
But unexpectedly, there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck.
"Old Xu, those are all in the past." Zhou Yan also looked up at Gao Tian like he did, "My family Qingli told me before that she received a summons from Guan Qinyin some time before she lost her whereabouts, and that day was the seventh day when the news of the 'destruction of Brother Yun's team' came."
"Guan Qinyin mentioned that she is pregnant......"
Xu Zhiguo's pupils shrank, and he was shocked, and he suddenly turned his head to look at Zhou Yan, looking forward to his next sentence.
Zhou Yan turned his head away, his face was heavy: "Later, I lost the news, and I don't know if this matter is true or not. I'm sorry I didn't inform you because of the uncertainty of the news."
It's been 12 years since I received the news......
The old man's face gradually darkened, but he no longer pursued anything. [,! He rolled up the dirty towel in his hand and said lightly: "Since Chengyu has gone, Yinyin's child will definitely not live alone...... The two of them...... Alas."
If they really have a child, maybe Guan Qinyin may still live in a corner of the world, but it is too abnormal to have been indifferent for more than ten years and not being in touch for so long, and the biggest possibility is that they are no longer there!
Taking a deep breath, Zhou Yan changed the topic: "Old Xu, look at the sample collection ...... this time"
Xu Zhiguo's eyebrows and eyes restrained his sadness, revealing the deep thinking of a senior scholar, but his tone was very firm: "We can't bring anything back."
He slowly explained under Zhou Yan's stunned gaze.
"This area was completely destroyed by the great force, and if you look at the cracks in the rocks, I deduce that it was the result of the collapse of the mountaintop area after the impact on it. It can be said that it is the destructive power of a giant dragon, but I think that if it is really a giant dragon with a length of 100 zhang, it is impossible to destroy only this area, and the damage in a small area is not like the strength of a legendary species at all, right?"
"Moreover, there are no signs of large animals in this area, and it is unlikely that it is a suitable place for a dragon that is 100 feet long. Not to mention the dragon, a python of five or six meters is enough to dominate this back mountain."
Xu Zhiguo poured out his reasoning like a pedant: "...... So, I can only conclude with 'dragons appear out of thin air,' and I really can't figure out the rest."
Zhou Yan pursed his thin lips, and his face was condensed: "But ......"
"Nothing." Xu Lao stood up and refused Zhou Yan's hand stretched out to support, "You don't have to wait until two weeks later, I will take someone back to Kyoto tomorrow and stay here, there will be no result at all."
Taking off his gloves, Xu Lao hunched his back and bowed down slowly, leaving only Zhou Yan, who was still in a daze carrying two towels in place.
At the other end, Diecui Villa Apartment Complex, Unit 14, Room 605.
The pale girl appeared in the room out of thin air, and after looking at the familiar furnishings silently for a few seconds, she calmly touched her room, threw herself on the soft one, and fell asleep.
