Chapter 144: Maps
Qin Chu took the note and unfolded it, Lin Xi curiously leaned over to look at it, only to see that it was a hand-drawn nautical map.
"What is this?" Lin Xi asked.
"Map." Qin Chu said as he folded the map and put it back in his suit pocket.
Then he said to Song Haibing; "Boss, please hurry up and cook two bowls of noodles, my friend and I have some urgent matters that need to be done as soon as possible."
"Okay. Mr. Qin, Dr. Lin, we have lo mein, tomato and egg noodles, and scallion oil noodles here."
"Let's have two bowls of egg noodles with tomatoes." Qin Chu didn't wait for Song Haibing to finish speaking.
Lin Xi glanced at Qin Chu a little strangely, didn't he like to eat eggs?
"Okay, Doctor Lin, Mr. Qin, you wait a minute." After Song Haibing finished speaking, he called Song Yu and walked quickly to the kitchen.
"Qin Chu, is the map in your pocket leading to the secret base?" Lin Xi asked.
Qin Chu nodded.
"How could this map be in Mr. Song's hands?"
Qin Chu was silent for a moment and then said, "It was Master Bai who asked Mr. Song to transfer it to me." โ
"Who is Bai Ye?"
"You'll know when you see it."
Lin Xi frowned, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Did Master Bai guide us to find that secret base?"
โ
Qin Chu hesitated for a moment before nodding.
"Why did Bai Ye guide us to find that secret base, and how did Bai Ye know where that secret base was?"
"I don't know very well," Qin Chu paused for a moment and said, "Actually, we are forced to complete a mission. โ
"Finished the mission?" Lin Xi exclaimed.
Qin Chu nodded.
Lin Xi frowned, "But this"
"Don't worry, Master Bai promises that as long as we complete the task, you will meet your senior brothers."
Lin Xi was skeptical: "Really? โ
Qin Chu nodded affirmatively.
Lin Xi didn't know how to describe her current mood, she was bent on sneaking into the X laboratory to find a secret base, how could it suddenly evolve into being able to meet her senior brothers after completing the mission.
"And what are we going to do?" Lin Xi asked.
"The first task is to pass through the passage, and the second task is to reach the island marked on the map by eight o'clock the next morning, through this map in my hand."
What the hell is going on? Lin Xi felt a little ridiculous, but looking at Qin Chu's serious expression, she believed that he was not joking.
"Is that time?"
"Don't worry, it's just in time." Qin Chu's tone was confident and determined.
"Noodles." Song Yu walked over with two bowls of tomato and egg noodles in his hands.
He put the two bowls of noodles in front of Qin Chu and Lin Xi, and said kindly, "Brother, sister, you two use it slowly." โ
Then he turned and left.
Lin Xi actually had several questions he wanted to ask Qin Chu, but when he saw Qin Chu pick up the chopsticks, he ate them almost like a whirlwind. At the same time, he remembered that Qin Chu said that they must arrive at the island at eight o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow.
So I didn't delay any longer, picked up chopsticks and devoured the noodles.
After eating, Qin Chu wanted to settle the bill, but Song Haibing insisted on refusing to accept the money, so he had to give up.

Outside the restaurant
Song Haibing and Song Yu stood side by side in the sun, watching Lin Xi and Qin Chu walk in the direction of the dock.
It wasn't until their figures became as small as fingers that Song Haibing withdrew his gaze, only to find that his son was still staring intently at the direction they had gone.
"Xiaoyu, do you like those two brothers and sisters just now?"
Song Yu retracted his gaze, looked at his father with a pair of big black and white eyes, and said seriously, "I don't like that brother." But I like that sister, she's the perfect goddess sister in my mind. โ
Song Haibing looked at his son's serious expression, and his eyes suddenly rolled. Then he said helplessly, "Alas, I'm afraid I won't be able to repay the kindness of that Dr. Lin in my life." โ
After speaking, he looked at his son expectantly, "Xiaoyu, are you willing to repay my kindness?" โ
Song Yu nodded again and again without hesitation.
Song Haibing frowned, looked at his son with an apron and said, "But the way you look now, how can you repay Dr. Lin?" โ
Song Yu lowered his head, his toes rubbing the sand on the ground. After a while, he suddenly raised his head, looked at his father like a torch, and said, "Dad, I'm going to go to school." โ
Song Haibing shouted happily; "Really?"
Song Yu nodded very firmly.
Song Haibing's big dark palm touched Song Yu's head and muttered; "Good boy, you've finally grown up."
Then, father and son turned around and went back to the restaurant.
