Second manuscript

"Qin Kai, don't forget to send me the case from seven years ago." After the three of them finished making the record, Lu Jiuchuan didn't forget to remind Qin Kai, after all, this was also a breakthrough. Since Lu Jiuchuan knew that his parents were both students of Zhan Guoxiang, he was full of interest in the case, and when he saw that Qin Kai hadn't sent him the news yesterday, he urged it again.

"Okay, I've arranged for my colleagues to check. You should take your aunt back to rest early. Goodbye, Auntie! After Qin Kai finished speaking, he kicked the accelerator and disappeared.

Lu Jiuchuan saw that his mother seemed to have lost her soul, so she was ready to take her mother home to rest, but she waved her hand and refused, saying that she still had to go abroad to do business.

"Mom, then you pay attention to your body." Lu Jiuchuan has never said anything similar to concern to his mother, and it seems that boys of this age do not understand the word intimate enough.

"Xiaochuan, you also see that Teacher Zhan is like this now, Mom didn't want you to take your father's path before, mainly because there are too many dangers on this road. But I also know that there is always someone who wants to go this way, but Mom doesn't want that person to be you, you know? After all, Lin Liqiong is just a mother, a distressed child's mother.

Lu Jiuchuan nodded and watched Lin Liqiong drive away. He understands that his father's death has become a hurdle in his mother's heart, and his mother can cross this hurdle, but parents don't want their children to cross this hurdle, because they know that if they can't cross it, the child will fall very painfully, very painful.

"But Mom, if all parents want their children to follow their wishes, then what's the point of this world?" Lu Jiuchuan, who had been standing in place for a long time, confided a helpless heart.

At this time, Lu Jiuchuan found out that he came by his mother's car, and Qin Kai also drove the newspaper's car, but they are all gone now.

Now it is the time for the taxi to be handed over, and Lu Jiuchuan does not expect to get a taxi. He didn't know anything about taking the bus, but he didn't really like walking, so he slowly began to swing on the road.

The Public Security Department is in the central district of Linxin City, and Lu Jiuchuan's house is in the southern district, which is a long way away.

The winter night is very dark, but the roadside lights are intimately diffused before the sky is completely dark. When Lu Jiuchuan passed by the Xinshi Welfare Institute, she saw a girl with brown curly hair and a melon seed face, wearing a big red down jacket, standing at the door of the welfare home, talking humbly with the woman who looked like the dean, while the children who got the dolls next to her screamed and jumped, and the mist coming out of her small mouth harmoniously condensed the whole picture.

Leng Qian also saw Lu Jiuchuan standing there, nodded and said goodbye to the dean, touched the head of one of the little boys, muttered a few words to everyone, and walked over to Lu Jiuchuan.

When Leng Qian walked in front of Lu Jiuchuan, Lu Jiuchuan was at a loss at the moment, as if he had spied on someone else's secret, and the whole person began to become anxious.

Leng Qian told Lu Jiuchuan bluntly: "I grew up here. ”

"Well, that, have you eaten, I haven't eaten yet, let's have dinner together." Lu Jiuchuan didn't know why, he wanted to ask her why she was here, but she said it first, and then the ghost sent her to come up with this sentence, embarrassing!

Leng Qian frowned when she heard this, and was silent.

Lu Jiuchuan saw that she hadn't spoken for a long time, and was just about to say something, when he heard Leng Qian's reply, "Okay." ”

Although the tone was as cold as ever, Lu Jiuchuan always felt that this girl was very enthusiastic compared to the first meeting. When he first added WeChat, Lu Jiuchuan wanted to ask her if she had something to do with him, but when he thought of Leng Qian's attitude, he immediately shrank back.

In the tea restaurant on the street, a man and a woman sat by the window, and it was eerily quiet. Only the melodious music tried to break the embarrassment between the two, to be precise, Lu Jiuchuan's embarrassment.

"I'll tell you a story." Leng Qian seemed to see Lu Jiuchuan's embarrassment, and took the lead in breaking the calm.

"yes, okay." Lu Jiuchuan smiled politely.

"Once upon a time there was a little girl who had a very good childhood. Later, her mother died in an accident, and her father left the little girl with her mother's compensation. The little girl was later raised by her grandparents, but a year later, the little girl's grandparents both left because of the loss of their daughter. Speaking of which, Lu Jiuchuan knew that the little girl was Leng Qian.

Later, the little girl went to the welfare home, and soon after she was adopted. Originally, the adoptive parents thought that they would not be able to have children, but not long after the little girl came to the house, the adoptive parents became pregnant. So the adoptive parents had the idea of abandoning the little girl. When the adoptive parents gave birth to their children, the adoptive parents also poured all their love into their own children, and gradually snubbed the little girl, until one day many years later, they really abandoned the little girl ruthlessly. Later, the little girl returned to the orphanage, and because of her age, no one came to adopt her. Leng Qian seemed to be really telling a story, a story that had nothing to do with herself, and her tone was so calm.

Lu Jiuchuan looked at the girl in front of him, and felt a little distressed, although the same thing happened to her in his childhood, he was really happier than her later.

He was silent for a long time, and then asked kindly, "So when I talked about the previous bombing, you knew that I was also the child of the victim back then, right?" ”

"Yes, I investigated you later." Leng Qian did not hide her behavior, and said, "Your name is Lu Jiuchuan, the only son of Lu Hongwei and Lin Liqiong, his father worked in the T-1 laboratory 20 years ago, and his mother is now an entrepreneur. Your screen name is 'Haina Jiuchuan', you are a citizen online media person, you have not many fans, you are committed to the popularization of science in civil science, and you have repeatedly criticized the behavior of Qiyuan Biotech in collecting DNA from the aspects of privacy and poor medical research. ”

What made Lu Jiuchuan most uncomfortable was not that Leng Qian investigated him, because of her newspaper identity and Qin Kai's existence, it was not too easy to investigate him. But the phrase "not many fans" made him unable to hold his face as a man.

He forcibly pretended not to care and said, "So, what are you investigating me for?" ”

"To do you a favor." Leng Qian said bluntly, although this was only the second time they had met.

"How can you help?" Lu Jiuchuan was a little inexplicably disappointed in his heart, but he really didn't understand what he could help her.

"Hand over the second manuscript." Although Leng Qian's tone was cold, when she said "manuscript", her eyes revealed incomparable eagerness.

"What?" Lu Jiuchuan seemed to be at a loss at the moment, and asked, "What manuscript?" ”

Seeing this, Leng Qian felt that Lu Jiuchuan didn't seem to be pretending to be stupid. Her expression gradually froze, and a breath of loss arose spontaneously, casting a haze over her originally fair face.

I saw her holding her forehead with her left hand, covering half of her face, and said, "It's okay, forget if you don't know, I'll figure it out myself!" ”

"Just tell me what you know." Lu Jiuchuan seemed to care about Leng Qian's matter, and actually reached out to drag her.

"Smack!" With a crisp high-five, Lu Jiuchuan's hand was slapped aside by Leng Qian, Leng Qian raised her head arrogantly, looking at Lu Jiuchuan who was embarrassed at this time, like a queen looking at the courtiers who were punished, and said viciously: "Don't touch me casually!" ”

"I'm sorry, I'm just trying to help you." Lu Jiuchuan was at a loss, and began to stutter when he spoke. He had never been murdered, especially such a beautiful woman.

Leng Qian saw that Lu Jiuchuan was still honest, pursed her lips, and said, "On the night after the press conference of Qiyuan Biosciences, I met an old man on the way back to the dormitory, and he stopped me and told me three things. ”

"What three things?"

"The first thing is that my mother, who used to be one of his teammates."

"Sure enough, it's Zhan Guoxiang." Lu Jiuchuan said with great certainty.

"Yes, but he's dead now. Qin Kai's news reported that he had been killed. ”

"Well, I know, what about the second one?"

The second thing is that during the fire, he left behind a manuscript in the laboratory that recorded the theory and manufacturing method of developing a time machine. And judging from the appearance of the time machine released at the press conference, this is likely to have fallen into the hands of Kaizen Biotech. ”

After listening to this, Lu Jiuchuan asked, "Is the third thing the whereabouts of the second manuscript?" ”

"Yes!" Leng Qian replied with great certainty, "He told me that the second copy was handed over to your mother when he left Linxin City. The above describes how to create the starting environment of the time machine, because without such an environment, it is easy to explode when running the time machine. He also instructed your mother to give you the manuscript when you were an adult and let you choose your own path. ”

"My mother? But my mom never told me! Lu Jiuchuan was shocked and didn't forget to ask Leng Qian, "Then why do you want a second manuscript?" ”

"Give it to Kaizen Biotech in exchange for a chance to go back to the past." Leng Qian said without hesitation.

"You're here at the press conference, you should know that they've already been developed and don't need a second manuscript at all." Lu Jiuchuan retorted.

"But why did Zhan Guoxiang die?" Leng Qian said immediately.

"You mean he was killed by the people of the Origins?" Lu Jiuchuan knew very well in his heart that even he suspected that Qiyuan Biology did it.

"I don't care who killed him, I just know that if he was really killed by the people of Kaiyuan Creatures, it just means that Kaiyuan Creatures are looking for a second manuscript. In this second manuscript, there must be some secrets that the Originator wants to know. Leng Qian said, took a sip of the tea on the table, and turned to leave.

When she was halfway there, she suddenly turned around and said faintly: "Now it seems that you are also in danger, go back and ask your mother." ”

When he watched the figure of the woman in red gradually disappear, Lu Jiuchuan remembered that he had barely eaten during the whole process, so he simply took a big gulp.

Leng Qian's last sentence, is she caring about me? Or a warning?
