On the Ark.

"Huh? Introducing Rhodes Island?" Mostima shook her head with a smile. "That kind of thing isn't important."

Isn't any of this important? Then why did you follow me up here? And why did I call Zilan for help in the middle of the night?

Lin Ye was speechless, but he couldn't say anything, since he had received a generous gift from someone.

"So, are you still planning to work here?" Lin Ye asked.

Mostima countered, "Why not?"

"Don't you need to learn more about it? Or do you already know enough?"

“It’s alright, I don’t know much about it.” Mostima shrugged. “But what kind of company Rhodes Island is doesn’t really matter to me, anyway, that’s definitely not my reason for joining.”

Lin Ye couldn't understand Mostima's thoughts at all. Unlike the simple Exusiai, every word Mostima said seemed to have a hidden meaning, yet also seemed to have nothing at all. Her blue pupils looked like a calm lake at first glance, but those standing on the shore could never see how deep the lake really was.

"Alright, that's enough for tonight." Mostima stretched, showing off her perfect figure to Lin Ye. "I should go now, bye-bye."

"Hmm... alright." Lin Ye couldn't stop Mostima, so he simply asked, "When do you plan to go to Rhodes Island?"

"In a while," Mostima said with a smile. "I'll submit my application to Rhodes Island in a while. By the way, what do you do at Rhodes Island?"

Lin Ye told Mostima about his work.

“A therapist? In a way, that suits you well.” Mostima nodded and said with a smile, “It sounds like an interesting job. I’ll come see you after I’ve taken care of things.”

After saying that, Mostima left Lin Ye's room.

Are you here to see me, not to report to Rhodes Island?

Lin Ye lowered his head, looking thoughtfully at the new Guardian Gun in his hand.

……

Mostima stopped in the parking lot on the ground floor of the building.

“You’re still so punctual,” Mostima said with a smile, looking at the empty parking lot.

About three to five seconds later, footsteps were heard in the parking lot, and a red-haired woman walked out from behind a pillar and stood in front of Mostima.

“You’ve been in a strange man’s room for half an hour, Mostima,” the red-haired woman said in a cold voice. “That’s not like you.”

“Really?” Mostima asked with a smile. “Then what do you think I should be like?”

“You know yourself,” the redhead said. “Who is he?”

"A handsome young man, the moment I saw him, I couldn't suppress the impulse in my heart..."

The red-haired woman raised her voice: "Mostima! Do you think this kind of joke is funny?"

“Tsk… I’m not joking, which is rare for me.” Mostima shrugged. “But nobody wants to believe me.”

“It is indeed hard to believe the words of a fallen angel,” the red-haired woman said. “Don’t forget that I am your overseer, Mostima.”

"Okay, okay, I got it." Mostima sighed. "We used to be comrades-in-arms. Alright, alright, stop looking at me like that."

"If you're not willing to tell me the truth, I'll have to investigate that man myself."

“Okay, then I’ll tell you the truth. He was just a passing psychologist, and that’s all I know,” Mostima said. “If the investigation yields any results, remember to give me a copy.”

The red-haired woman sneered.

"Ah, I'm so hungry, I'm going to get some midnight snacks." Mostima turned to leave, but after taking a few steps, she suddenly remembered something and turned back to look at the red-haired woman. "By the way, if there's a next time, I hope you'll come a little later."

"Isn't half an hour enough?"

“Half an hour isn’t enough,” Mostima sighed, speaking softly in a voice only he could hear. “I’ve been looking for him for half my life.”

Chapter 432 I am Mr. Blood (Part 1)

After Mostima left, Lin Ye went to bed early. The inexplicable events of the day had left him feeling exhausted, but thankfully he recovered somewhat at the last minute and managed to get a good night's sleep. The next morning, he was woken up by a knock on the door. This time it was Eyjafjalla, as it was Eyjafjalla's turn to attend a seminar today, and Lin Ye had promised to accompany her.

Looking at Lin Ye with his heavy dark circles under his eyes, Eyjafjalla said with some concern, "Senior, if you didn't rest well last night, you can continue to rest. Let me go alone."

Lin Ye's fatigue was immediately dispelled by Eyjafjalla's gentle concern. He flexed his muscles, which weren't much to show off, and said, "Don't worry, senior, I'm very strong."

Hmm... I have a strange feeling that my way of speaking is a bit disgusting. It's giving me goosebumps, but thankfully Eyjafjalla doesn't seem to mind. Afterward, Lin Ye told Eyjafjalla to wait at the door, then quickly finished washing up, took [Maple] and the competitor, and went to the door again, only to find that the Ranger had also come out.

"I'll take you there," the forest ranger said with a smile.

"Thank you, senior!"

Eyjafjalla politely thanked the ranger, who waved his hand, indicating that it was no trouble at all. He then drove Lin Ye and Eyjafjalla to the venue for the seminar. Half an hour later, they arrived at their destination, where Lin Ye saw members of the Guard Bureau maintaining order outside.

"An academic seminar officially organized by Lungmen?" the Ranger said, looking at the members of the Guard Bureau. "No wonder it's so formal. Will Mr. Wei Yanwu be here?"

Eyjafjalla couldn't hear the ranger's words clearly, so Lin Ye repeated them before she nodded and said, "It should be true, because Mr. Wei Yanwu will select one or two research projects to invest in at this symposium."

"I see." The ranger smiled at Eyjafjalla. "Then you'd better keep up the good work."

"I will try my best!" Eyjafjalla looked very motivated.

Lin Ye thought to himself that this was probably why she was so popular. Who wouldn't like a girl who was sweet-looking, gentle, positive, and very talented? If it weren't for Oripathy, what a bright future she would have had! Just thinking about it made him feel sorry for her. At this moment, Lin Ye hoped that Warfarin could complete the research on the "L-type" drug as soon as possible. He couldn't bear to see such a girl die.

"Senior?" Eyjafjalla, who had already gotten out of the car, looked at Lin Ye, who was still sitting in the passenger seat without moving, and asked with some confusion, "Aren't you going?"

Lin Ye snapped out of his reverie and immediately got out of the car: "Go, go, go! How could I not go?"

The forest ranger waved to Lin Ye: "Take good care of Eyjafjalla. Parking is not allowed here. I'm going back now. Call me after your meeting."

After saying that, he drove away.

However, what happened next was not quite what Lin Ye had imagined.

“Eyjafjalla scholar, no problem.” The Guardian operator nodded after reviewing Eyjafjalla’s invitation. “You may enter, however…”

The Guardian officer looked at Lin Ye, and Lin Ye immediately felt a sense of foreboding.

“Sir, you cannot go in,” the Guardian officer said. “Because you do not have an invitation.”

"Can't we go in without an invitation?" Lin Ye asked, a bit annoyed. "Can't I go in with her?"

Before the Royal Guard agent could speak, a mocking female voice rang out from the side: "What do you think this is, a movie theater? You think you can just come in together?"

Lin Ye looked in the direction of the voice and saw a woman dressed in a very "scholarly" style, with a somewhat sharp and mean-spirited appearance, standing in front of them. She had obviously just passed through security and, for some reason, suddenly had her eyes on them. He frowned, about to say something, when the woman turned her gaze to Eyjafjalla: "Oh ho, where did this country bumpkin come from? Is your invitation genuine?"

Eyjafjalla didn't hear clearly. She thought the woman was asking her name, so she politely replied, "Hello, my name is Eyjafjalla."

"Oh ho, what a polite and well-behaved child! Wait, Eyjafjalla, are you the one researching volcanoes?"

"Excuse me, what did you say?"

"Stop playing dumb." The woman's voice turned much colder. "You think you can get research funding from Mr. Wei Yanwu for such a far-fetched topic? You're really clueless. Well, I didn't expect you to actually dare to come."

Lin Ye couldn't stand it anymore: "Hey, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"Nonsense?" The woman glanced at Lin Ye and said, "People who don't even have an invitation shouldn't stand outside and chatter on. I have no interest in talking to you."

"you……"

"Want to argue with me? Forget it, I've already said I'm not interested. Just wait patiently outside, Miss Eyjafjalla. See you at the seminar." The woman gave Eyjafjalla a provocative look, then left the security checkpoint and headed towards the meeting venue.

Eyjafjalla looked at Lin Ye and asked, "Senior, what was that young lady saying?"

Lin Ye did not answer Eyjafjalla, but said to the Guardian Bureau operative, "You see, Eyjafjalla's hearing is very poor. She can only hear what I say. Without me present, she cannot participate in the seminar."

"Don't worry," the Royal Guard agent said. "We've already considered the experience of every participant and have prepared the latest hearing aid for Miss Eyjafjalla. Miss Eyjafjalla will definitely not be unable to hear anything."

Lin Ye hadn't expected Lungmen to be so well-prepared. If it weren't for that woman, he would have let Eyjafjalla go in alone. But that woman was clearly no pushover, and the naive Eyjafjalla was no match for her. He didn't want Eyjafjalla to be bullied, so he wanted her to go in with him.

However, the stubborn Royal Guard agents refused to let Lin Ye in.

Just as Lin Ye was struggling with his decision, a hand landed on his shoulder. He turned around and saw Chen Zheng looking at him with a displeased expression.

“I didn’t expect you to actually come,” Chen said. “Perfect, let’s go back to the station together to make a statement.”

Lin Ye was startled: "What kind of statement are you taking?"

"What statement are you talking about? Don't you know what you did last night?"

last night?

Lin Ye suddenly remembered and immediately shouted, "I'm innocent! I was the one who got beaten up!"

"Those who were beaten must also go back to give a statement."

"How could such a thing happen!"

"This is the rule of the Guard Bureau. Both the person who was beaten and the person who did the beating must give a statement. And you are standing here perfectly fine. How can you be the one who was beaten?" Chen said irritably. "The people who did the beating are all in the hospital. Some of them are even in the intensive care unit."

Lin Ye: "..."

He really wanted to say that it was self-defense, and that he hadn't done anything outrageous except for cutting off someone's hand! The rest of the group was all dealt with by Mostima, but saying that would be tantamount to selling Mostima out, and Lin Ye didn't want to sell Mostima out, so he was very conflicted.

Meanwhile, Eyjafjalla learned from the Royal Guard operators that Lin Ye couldn't go in with her. Being a well-behaved girl, she naturally didn't want to cause Lin Ye any trouble, so she said to him, "Senior, you go back first. I can go in by myself."

Lin Ye had no choice but to watch Eyjafjalla go inside by herself, but he was unwilling to give up, so he asked Chen, "Did you see that?"

"What do you see?"

"It's the woman who just spoke to me."

Chen nodded; he saw it.

Do you know that gossipy woman?

"That gossip is... who are you calling a gossip?" Chen said irritably. "She's a scholar we invited. Can't you at least show some respect when you speak?"

“But what she just said showed absolutely no respect for us!” Lin Ye said. “If Eyjafjalla goes in, she’ll definitely be bullied! I can’t just ignore it.”

Chen's expression was very strange: "Where did you come from, old man? What do you think this place is? This is an academic conference, not a kindergarten. Are you worried that your daughter will be bullied by some unlucky kids in kindergarten?"

Lin Ye was taken aback for a moment, then thought Chen's analogy was quite apt, and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes."

"You're kidding me! You actually agreed?" Chen said irritably. "Just come back with me and give your statement. What business is it of yours what happens to scholars?"

Lin Ye, of course, was unwilling to leave just like that, and said, "I am also a scholar."

"Veterinary medicine?"

"Don't talk down to me like that!" Lin Ye thought to himself. He had to get into the seminar no matter what. If all else failed, he would just impersonate someone else. Besides Eyjafjalla, were there any other scholars he knew who were similar?

It seems like there isn't one. Lin Ye always felt that the people he knew were all rather unreliable. What... Hmm? It seems there really is one.

Lin Ye thought of someone and immediately took out his phone: "Wait, let me make a call."

Chen put her hands on her hips and looked at him with obvious displeasure: "You're making too much of a fuss."
