Chapter 660: Departure
Selena knocked softly on Professor Morgan's door.
The door was opened by a white man in his thirties named Tristan, another assistant to Professor Morgan.
He has a face that is always smiling and feels very sunny, if only when he cleans his beard so that the sun shines out.
Unlike him, Professor Morgan, who is over sixty years old, is a person with a somewhat gloomy personality, who doesn't like to talk much and doesn't have many expressions.
He gives the impression that he is always taking notes in his notebook, which seems to be unsatisfactory.
"Professor Morgan, I'm looking for you for a little thing. ”
Professor Morgan wrote a few more words before he turned back and asked, "What's the matter?"
"We're going to leave tomorrow, I thought...... I think we should be prepared in advance and hire a guide and some bodyguards, as we did before. ”
"If that's what you're talking about, then Tristan has already done it. ”
Professor Morgan turned his head, holding his pen in his hand, and looked at the open notebook, but he didn't put down the pen, but continued to say to Selena: "By the way, Selena, don't provoke Jason Pitt in the future, although he and his father are very polite to me because they have a request for us, but you know, his family is actually a combination of a group of madmen and madmen. ”
Selena scolded in her heart, she didn't know if this Jason was crazy, but he was definitely a stingy person, so she said a few words to him, and even ran to Professor Morgan to complain.
But now was not the time to discuss this, and it didn't occur to her that Tristan had already found a guide and bodyguards, and her plans were about to fall through.
Now what?
The beautiful dark green eyes blinked a few times, and Selena smiled and asked Tristan, "Are the guides and bodyguards you are looking for reliable?"
"It's a must, Selena, and I don't dare joke with the professor's and your safety," Tristan replied gently, "the guides are locals, and the bodyguards are two former Marines hired from James Security, who have been commissioned many times here, and both have done their job brilliantly."
"And they have a special license to wear various models of firearms here. ”
It doesn't look like there's any flaw.
Selena's mind was racing with thoughts, she had already told Wu Jun just now, and now she went back and said no, would it seem that she was very useless?
"But I think...... It might be safer to find a few more. ”
"Selena, we're going to do a research project, not a war," Tristan objected, "and besides, we don't have enough money to hire any more." ”
"Otherwise, I'll pay for it myself. ”
At this time, Morgan turned around and asked expressionlessly, "Selena, do you want to hire those three people you met in the pool just now?"
This must have been what Jason told him again, that hateful stingy ghost, didn't he just turn down his dinner invitations a few times, and he needed to do this?
Sneering at Jason, Selena nodded.
"They're Chinese," Morgan said, "and I know you're more interested in Chinese culture, but don't forget that the Chinese have always been cunning, and they may have some ulterior motives. ”
"Professor," Selena said in a deep voice, her face darkened, "and your remarks are already suspected of racial discrimination. I don't think that's the attitude a scientist should have, and if these words are known, they will tarnish your reputation. ”
"Is there one?" said Morgan, shrugging his shoulders indifferently.
"No matter what, I'm going to hire the three of them this time," Selena said, "no matter what color they are, no matter what race they are, I'll be firm in my choice, and I'll pay for it myself." ”
"That's your freedom, but I hope they don't have a bad impact on our experiments. ”
In the face of Selena's sudden toughness, Morgan dropped a sentence and stopped discussing the matter, but wrote with his head bored.
Selena left his room at Tristan's gaze, and in the empty hallway, Tristan whispered, "Selena, you shouldn't have said that to the professor, he might be upset." ”
Selena shook her head indifferently, and didn't discuss the matter with him, nor did she tell him that their experiment would not have succeeded without her assistance.
This is the biggest confidence she dares to talk back to Professor Morgan.
Besides, she felt that her words were not wrong, and Professor Morgan's remarks were indeed a bit excessive.
Ridiculous racism, ridiculous racism, like the sludge on the corner of her skirt, made her feel sick.
She waved her hand to Tristan, turned around and happily called Wu Jun, telling him the good news while inviting him to lunch.
However, Wu Jun rejected her kindness, saying that he wanted to prepare something for tomorrow's trip.
"Well," Selena thought for a moment, "don't you think it's better to have dinner together?"
Wu Jun's face froze, what does this girl mean, is she doubting his purpose of being her "bodyguard"?
What a suspicious girl.
So he politely refused again, if you don't believe him, then don't "hire" him, he doesn't care.
And he wants to eat grilled seafood more than any Western food.
Hanging up Selena's phone, Wu Jun looked up and saw two big heads leaning around him.
"What are you two doing?"
"It's okay," Xiao Liu hurriedly cast his gaze to the sky, "Master, what are we going to prepare?"
"I don't know, but tomorrow we're going to the jungle, and you'll see for yourself. By the way, remember to buy two dry ice fire extinguishers to bring along. ”
After Wu Jun left, Zhao Guangwu said to Xiao Liu, "Xiao Liu, why do you say that the master refuses to be invited to dinner?"
"You don't understand this, master, this is called wanting to capture and indulge. ”
"That's too indulgent, it's okay to indulge in lunch, and ...... in the evening."
"Do you think the master will be such a casual person?" Xiao Liu gave him a roll of his eyes angrily.
Zhao Guangwu: ...... It is you who say that the master is a master of flirting with girls, and it is also you who says that he is as guarded as a jade, and everything has been said by you!
"Why do you think of me like that?" Xiao Liu drank the drink in the cup and said, "Hurry up and go shopping." ”
"Yes, but what did you say the master told us to buy a fire extinguisher?"
"I don't know, but since I let you buy it, there must be a reason for it. ”
"Is he afraid that he won't be able to control himself and use it to physically cool down?"
Xiao Liu: ...... Just say this to you, don't want to be a master's apprentice in this life.
......
The next morning, Wu Jun met Selena and her party at the door of the hotel on time.
Because there were nine people, Tristan rented a small truck and moved several tightly packed boxes into the compartment.
Knowing that a minute before leaving, Wu Jun saw Professor Morgan's real person, this old man pulled his face, as if he was owed tens of millions of debts and would not come back, and the eyes that looked at them were not necessarily friendly, but full of warning.
"Don't you care," Selena explained in an embarrassed whisper to Wu Jun as she got into the car, "Professor Morgan is such a person, in fact, he has no bad intentions. ”
Wu Jun smiled and shrugged his shoulders, he didn't care at all.
If the eyes can kill people, what else can they do with airplane cannons?
However, the hostile attitude of this old man made Zhao Guangwu on the side dissatisfied, if the old man hadn't gotten into the co-pilot alone, he might have to pay him a good salute with his eyes.
The truck quickly drove out of the city.
Although Sierra Leone has received a lot of international assistance in recent years and has begun to rehabilitate its infrastructure on a large scale, dilapidated grass huts and poorly clothed people are still everywhere in remote suburbs.
The two big bodyguards that Morgan hired may have seen too much of this situation, so they didn't pay attention to it, but thought of a way to talk to Selena.
After all, a beautiful and hot girl like Selena is rare.
However, Selena didn't pay attention to them at all, and kept looking at Wu Jun's side face, which made the two retired soldiers feel very uncomfortable, muttering to him and Xiao Liu, talking and laughing.
Seeing that Zhao Guangwu's face was wrong, Wu Jun knew that these two guys definitely didn't say anything serious.
"Dogs, if they hadn't been with guns, I'd have thrown them out now. ”
Wu Jun could see that Zhao Guangwu still had some scruples about these two people.
After all, it is a former marine, and there is no doubt about its skills and strength, plus the other party is fully armed, once there is a dispute here, it is difficult to get benefits.
Wu Jun saw with his heavenly eyes that one of these two people was named Andrew and the other was called Aidan, both of whom were burly white people.
The one who is a little shorter is half a head taller than Zhao Guangwu, and the muscles all over his body are like beef tendon meat, and his clothes are about to burst.
They are employees of a security company in Freetown that specializes in providing security services to Europeans and Americans who come to Sierra Leone for investment and exploration, and charge high commissions.
Because of the background of the security company, their employees are also more domineering.
But even if they don't have a background, they can play tricks without scruples when they walk among the local natives.
"What did they say?" Wu Jun asked Selena.
"Uh......" Selena hesitated, but finally said honestly, "They say, let you hold on and don't get thrown out of the car." ”
"What else?"
"Also, they say it's strange for your two friends to carry fire extinguishers," Selena asked, "Actually, I'm also curious, why are you carrying fire extinguishers? ”
After thinking about it, Selena said, "Even if it causes a mountain fire, I don't think the two fire extinguishers will be of much use. ”
Wu Jun smiled and said nothing, these two fire extinguishers were not used to deal with mountain fires.
Seeing that Wu Jun did not answer, but continued to look at the scenery next to him, Selena was not only annoyed, but felt that Wu Jun was becoming more and more mysterious.
I wonder if he will agree to have a romantic dinner with her when this experiment is over?
