Watching a Movie (10) - What? Ruan Mei wants to become a god?
When Ladio's comment floated by, the chat fell silent for a moment.
It wasn't the kind of silence that comes from being shocked, but rather the kind of silence where someone says something that's hard to respond to, and everyone is waiting for someone else to speak first.
After all, Dr. Truth has a very high reputation.
[Yu Qingtu: Do you have a problem with Ruan Mei?]
The chat remained silent for another second.
The situation within the company is becoming increasingly tense.
How come so many geniuses have suddenly emerged?
No one dared to speak, so Dr. Truth had to take the lead himself.
[Veritas Ladio: Opinion? No, just stating the facts, isn't it?]
[Veritas Ladio: Nguyen May's research focuses on the "reproduction" and "creation" of "life." Her interest in reproduction has never been about how to "control" it, but rather how to "utilize" it.]
[Veritas Ladio: Giving her the remains of reproduction is no different in essence from giving a match to a child curious about fire.]
[Screws: Logically, Latio's concerns are not without merit.]
[ScrewGumm: Ms. Nguyen Mai's achievements in the life sciences are unparalleled, but her research interests do indeed lean more towards "exploring boundaries" than "defining boundaries."]
[Screwgoom: If she believes that reproducing remains is the key to unlocking a certain mystery of life, she might not prioritize "risk control" as her first priority.]
[Nguyen Mai: You're talking about me?]
Yu Qingtu: Hmm.
[Nguyen Mai: Oh.]
[Nguyen Mai: I am indeed very interested in reproducing remains. If handled properly, it is theoretically possible to reproduce any known life form, and even create new ones.]
[Veritas Ladio: ......]
[Screw Gum: ......]
[Black Tower: ......]
[Nguyen Mai: What? I was just stating the facts.]
When it comes to these topics, it seems only geniuses can chime in.
[March 7th: ...I feel even more scared now.]
[Star: The helper the savior found seems rather unreliable.]
[Danheng: It's not that it's unreliable, it's just... the research direction is a bit off.]
[Himeko: Professor Latio means that Ms. Nguyen Mai's interest in breeding may not lie in "destruction," but in "research."]
[March 7th: Isn't that the same as handing the key over to a thief?]
Extremely bold remarks.
[Ruan Mei: ......]
[Nguyen Mai: Is this a questioning of me?]
There was a slight pause of two seconds.
[Forgetful Person: Oh dear, don't be so serious. Ms. Ruan Mei has such a profound understanding of life, she naturally knows how to conduct herself appropriately.]
[Forgetful Person: Moreover, when it comes to reproduction and life, I doubt you can find anyone more qualified to speak on this than Ms. Ruan Mei.]
At the company headquarters, Toppa looked at the few comments on the screen, while Zhang Zhang curled up and rubbed against her leg.
[Topa: So... Jiang Jiu sought out Ruan Mei to control the risks of breeding the remains?]
[Jade: Theoretically yes, but...]
[Topa: Then why is Jiang Jiu still looking for her?]
[Gold Sand: Perhaps they simply don't understand Ms. Nguyen Mai?]
[Gold Sand: After all... when it comes to life, isn't she the one with the most authority to speak on the matter?]
Nguyen Mai did not respond further.
Rather than offering explanations, she seemed less concerned.
Despite this, no one thought Nguyen Mai would do anything particularly extreme.
At most, they might be a little more interested in breeding, right?
If the Xianzhou insists on conducting this experiment, having a professional to help might not necessarily be a bad thing.
...At least that's what they still think now.
In the video, Jiang Jiu finished communicating with Hei Ta, turned off his phone, and looked up at Hua.
"The arrangements have been made. Nguyen Mai should be arriving soon."
Jiang Jiu thought for a moment and then added.
"I remember you have some connection with her? You should be more likely to believe what she says?"
Hua nodded.
Thank you.
The marshal did not question the truthfulness of Jiang Jiu's words. As members of the same genius club, it was perfectly normal for them to have each other's contact information.
"It's not a big deal."
Jiang Jiu didn't say anything more, nodded to Hua, and then turned and left the core area of the Marshal's Mansion.
The next day, Jiang Jiu "bumped into" General Shence of the Immortal Boat while buying pastries at the market.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Jiang Jiu, carrying the gift he had prepared for Ruan Mei, prepared to return to his residence. However, before pushing open the door, he paused for two seconds with his hand on the doorknob.
The next moment, the door to his temporary residence opened from the inside.
Jiang Jiu: "..."
Hei Ta slightly curled his lips and stood at the door looking at Jiang Jiu: "If you don't come in, I'll close the door."
"Enter......"
[March 7th: This refers to the reversal of the Heavenly Gang's power, the turning of the tables.]
[Aista: The Lady of the Black Tower is unparalleled!]
Jiang Jiu went inside and placed the things he had bought on the table. Looking at the two uninvited guests, he sighed helplessly.
How did you find this place?
"Isn't it easy to find you?" Hei Ta raised his chin. "I'll just hack your phone a little and I'll know."
"Fine then." Jiang Jiu gave up.
"I thought you would go directly to Hua to talk. I heard they threw a welcome banquet for Ruan Mei."
Black Tower put down his teacup and said matter-of-factly, "Didn't you ask me to help make the contact? I've brought the person to you, so of course I should hand them over to you. As for the rest of the Immortal Ship..."
She shrugged.
"What does this have to do with me? It's not like I asked them to entertain us."
Upon hearing this, Ruan Mei shifted her gaze from the pastries to Jiang Jiu.
Her eyes were calm, filled with a pure curiosity and a thirst for knowledge.
That gaze didn't seem to be looking at a person, but rather at a somewhat precious experimental sample.
"Nice to meet you, my name is Ruan Mei," she said, her voice cool and clear.
"Nice to meet you, my name is Jiang Jiu."
Ruan Mei walked from the window to Jiang Jiu's side, looked at him for two seconds, and then unexpectedly reached out her hand.
...I missed my chance.
Jiang Jiu stepped aside to avoid Ruan Mei's probing, and laughed, "Although I have long heard of Ms. Ruan Mei's reputation, is it a little impolite to treat a colleague as an experimental subject on our first meeting?"
[March 7th: Huh? What's going on here?]
[Star: I know this move like the back of my hand! I've done it before!]
March 7th: ...?
[Ruan Mei: This is my work habit. I use touch to stimulate the senses and allow details about life to flood the mind. There is no malice intended.]
She emphasized that she meant no harm.
[March 7th: Oh... I see.]
After chatting with Ruan Mei about the purpose of the Immortal Ship for a while, out of interest, Ruan Mei directly notified the Marshal of the Immortal Ship and went to the experimental area on her own.
The remains of the Star God thus became something that could be studied at will.
That's really... outrageous.
In the evening, Jiang Jiu climbed out of the house and pushed open the door to see that Hei Ta had transformed her temporary hut into her temporary laboratory.
Geniuses never complain about their circumstances.
Therefore, the Black Tower chose to change its environment.
"No... Black Tower, what are you doing?"
“I’m not interested in the outside world.” Hei Ta glanced at Jiang Jiu. “You slept for a long time.”
Jiang Jiu chuckled and casually opened his phone. Several messages popped up on the screen instantly.
Three hours ago:
Jingyuan: I heard that Lady Black Tower visited the Immortal Ship. I wonder if you have time? A banquet is being prepared at Jingyuan Pavilion. We look forward to your arrival.
Two hours ago:
Nguyen Mai: What a boring banquet... I should have gone later.
