After tying the rope, Lu Chengchuan and Zhou Yaning prepared to descend.

He had never practiced this kind of technical work before, so when Zhou Yaning was about to enter the black fog, he jumped directly from the helicopter.

He fell down quickly with the rope, and everyone was used to it and didn't worry at all about him getting into trouble. Seeing how decisive he was, Zhou Yaning also sped up her descent.

Lu Chengchuan landed on the ground instantly. He looked around in the black fog and saw nothing.

After a few seconds, Zhou Yaning landed next to him. The two didn't speak when they met, but looked around. After watching for a while, they walked forward.

In front of us is the cracked meteorite, and the small crater has not changed at all.

The two walked forward and soon saw the cracked meteorite. Black mist was pouring out from it and continued to flow out.

"Never stopped. Do you know what happened?"

The black fog continued to pour out, and Zhou Yaning's face looked very bad. If the black fog continued to spread, Anyang City would also be threatened.

They didn't know what dangers lay in the black fog, but one thing was certain: nothing good would happen.

"I really don't know anything about this..."

Lu Chengchuan could only shake his head at Zhou Yaning's question. He was not an encyclopedia. Nothing in the black fog was calling him, and the system did not respond.

"Captain Zhou, I don't know everything." Lu Chengchuan answered her in a low voice.

The two walked to the meteorite. When they left last night, the meteorite was only broken into several large pieces. Now the upper half of the meteorite was completely shattered, with only a few fragments in the lower half remaining.

The black mist was emanating from the center of the meteorite. Zhou Yaning approached and looked at it for a while, then she actually reached out her hand.

She was about to touch the center of the black fog, wondering if it would be dangerous. Lu Chengchuan watched from the side, but he didn't try to stop her because he also wanted to know if anything would happen...

When her slender fingers touched the black mist, Zhou Yaning felt a hint of coolness. She continued to stretch out her hand and placed her palm on the center of the black mist.

"How does it feel?" Lu Chengchuan asked.

Zhou Yaning frowned, thought about it carefully, and said, "I don't feel anything..."

I just don't feel anything. Black fog is similar to ordinary fog, except that it blocks the signal.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yaning put his hand directly on the stone, covering the place where the mist came out, to see if he could block the mist inside the stone.

The moment he placed his hand on it, countless mists rushed out through his palms like crazy.

Zhou Yaning felt a slight chill, but other than that there was no other significant change.

She withdrew her hand, and then circled around the meteorite. Lu Chengchuan followed her, and after a few circles, they stopped. Zhou Yaning suddenly turned around.

"Can you move a piece?"

She was worried that one stone was not enough for research, so she wanted Lu Chengchuan to bring back another one.

Lu Chengchuan went up, found the largest piece, and then slowly moved it up.

"You go up first and let the helicopter take me away."

After lifting the stone, Lu Chengchuan asked someone to go up first. He was holding the stone in his hand and couldn't climb onto the helicopter, so he could only let the helicopter pull him away.

The weight of the stone was light for him, but its shape was awkward and he had to use both hands to hold it.

Zhou Yaning quickly climbed out of the black fog. The people on the helicopter kept staring down. Qian Xiaoling and others saw the captain coming out and gathered around him. Seeing the captain's gesture, Qian Xiaoling immediately shouted to the pilot:

"Fly upwards, fly slowly."

The pilot controlled the helicopter to fly slowly upwards, and after a while, Lu Chengchuan was pulled out of the black fog.

Zhou Yaning looked down and made sure that Lu Chengchuan had escaped from the black fog. She then gestured upwards.

"Get out of here and find a place to stop."

The helicopter flew out of the black fog with two people hanging below. He didn't dare to fly too fast. About ten minutes later, he flew out of the black fog area and found a place to land.

The helicopter landed, Lu Chengchuan moved the meteorite up, and after fixing it, the helicopter took off into the air again.

The helicopter returned to the armed forces department with another piece of meteorite fragment. The meteorite was transported to an armored vehicle. The stone would be sent to the research institute for research, and Lu Chengchuan would have nothing to do with it after that.

"Let's go, I'll treat you to dinner."

At noon, after Zhou Yaning finished dealing with various things, she found him and said she wanted to treat him to a meal, just the two of them.

Lu Chengchuan began to guess what she wanted to do, thought about it and nodded in agreement. It was just a meal and he wouldn't suffer any loss.

"Let's go."

Zhou Yaning drove the car, and the two left the armed forces department and came to the nearest big hotel.

Mingkeju, the name doesn't look like a hotel, the private room has been booked, Zhou Yaning took him in, the waiter came up and asked, then took them to the private room.

They sat down and the waiter asked if the food was ready. After getting the answer, he left the box.

"Captain Zhou, why are you suddenly inviting me to dinner?"

After the waiter left, Lu Chengchuan asked her why she treated him to dinner.

"Nothing." Zhou Yaning shook her head and said softly, "You helped me a lot. It's time for dinner, so I'll have a meal and say thank you."

"Is it really like that?" Lu Chengchuan didn't believe it.

"You'll believe it after dinner. Don't worry, if there's something wrong I'll tell you directly. There's no need for all this."

Even though Lu Chengchuan was involved in many important events, their relationship was not that close, and many things could not be solved by just treating him to a meal.

Lu Chengchuan was skeptical. After seven or eight minutes, the door of the private room was opened and a waiter came with a cart serving the dishes.

After the dishes were served, Zhou Yaning started eating right away. Seeing how enthusiastically she was eating, Lu Chengchuan also started eating.

A few minutes later, the waiter came to serve the dishes again. He came three times in total, serving eight dishes and a soup. After the dishes were served, no other waiter came.

Halfway through the meal, Zhou Yaning took a sip of tea, then suddenly put down her chopsticks and looked at him seriously: "There is something I want to ask you."

Lu Chengchuan rolled his eyes, there must be something going on here.

"Tell me, Captain Zhou, what's the matter?" Lu Chengchuan also put down his chopsticks.

"The director asked me to ask you if you have ever considered joining the investigation bureau."

"I remember this was mentioned last time and I answered it." This was mentioned before and he also said that he didn't want to join, so why is he asking now?

The person refused directly. Zhou Yaning said, "Why don't you join? Don't you like the Investigation Bureau?"

"There's no reason. It's not that I don't like it, I just don't want to go any further." Lu Chengchuan shook his head, using the same excuse as before.

He doesn't like being controlled too much, so it's better the way it is now.

"I really don't know what you're thinking. If you join the Investigation Bureau, you'll definitely get promoted quickly..."

Before Zhou Yaning could finish her words, Lu Chengchuan knocked on some plates and said, "Captain Zhou, you don't have to tell me this. Let's eat. If you have nothing else to do later, I'll go home first."

After saying that, Lu Chengchuan picked up his chopsticks and lowered his head to eat. Seeing him lowering his head and looking like he couldn't hear anything, Zhou Yaning had no way to continue.
