Chapter 250 Heading to City A

Qiao Yu did not comment on this. Seeing that people from the research institute had also arrived one after another, he no longer paid attention to the situation on Tang Ran's side and went straight to Professor Kang and Yu Qingchuan.

"Professor." Qiao Yu pulled Jiang Zhan and greeted Professor Kang.

Professor Kang smiled and nodded, "I'm going to trouble you for the next few days."

Before Qiao Yu could reply, Cheng Sinian raised his eyebrows with a sly smile and continued, "Okay, okay, Professor, just wait and see. We'll take care of it."

Professor Kang glared at Cheng Sinian seemingly unhappily, but there was a smile on his face.

"Lao Kang, this is the student you often mention, right?"

A researcher next to Professor Kang, who looked to be over 50 years old and had a kind face, also smiled and spoke.

"Yes." Professor Kang grinned broadly upon hearing this. He pulled Cheng Sinian over and introduced him proudly, "My most admired student. He's like a half-son to me."

"Si Nian, this is Shen Tingwen, Professor Shen, who studies biology. You can just call him Uncle Shen."

Cheng Sinian put away his nonchalant look and called out "Uncle Chen" in a respectful manner.

Shen Tingwen smiled and nodded.

Professor Kang then pulled Luo Zhenzhen over and boasted to Shen Tingwen, "This is Zhenzhen, my half-daughter-in-law! How is she? She looks good, right?"

"Yes, yes, it looks very beautiful!" Shen Tingwen laughed and shook his head. This old Kang still has the temper of a child.

"Hello, Uncle Shen." Seeing this, Luo Zhenzhen also called out obediently, but her face was slightly flushed.

"Okay, okay." Shen Tingwen nodded in response with a smile.

Although he was somewhat helpless towards Professor Kang, Shen Tingwen had to admit that looking at the golden boy and jade girl in front of him, he was indeed quite envious of Old Kang.

Qiao Yu and the others talked to Professor Kang for a while, and then they saw a young man who looked to be in his thirties walking towards them.

The man was dressed in black, tall and long-legged, with a wheat-colored face with sharp edges and sharp eyes, giving people a very masculine and bloody feeling.

"Hello, Professor Kang and Professor Shen." The man stood in front of Professor Kang and nodded respectfully.

"I'm Yan Zijin, the captain of the Tianxing Squad. I'm in charge of the security for the mercenary hunting team for this operation."

Upon hearing this, Professor Kang and Professor Shen politely responded, "Hello."

Qiao Yu took a closer look at Yan Zijin and thought to himself, "So this is Tianxing's captain. He really does seem capable."

While Qiao Yu was looking at Yan Zijin, Yan Zijin also took the opportunity to quickly and calmly glance at Qiao Yu and the others.

I felt a little confused.

These people... I don't think I've seen them before...

If he had seen such outstanding appearance and temperament, he would definitely remember it.

Is he new here?

But how could a newcomer be involved in such an important operation?

…

Just as Yan Zijin was silently complaining, Chu Yi also walked over.

Chu is also the military command representative in this operation.

Although the military team and the mercenary hunting team have the same goal, their responsibilities are different.

The mercenary hunting team is responsible for close protection, while the army is responsible for clearing the way.

Chu Yi was slightly stunned when he saw Qiao Yu and others following Professor Kang. It seemed that he did not expect Qiao Yu and others to be in the research institute's team.

But he didn't say anything. He was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses and said respectfully to Professor Kang and Professor Shen: "Professor Kang, Professor Shen, if you are ready, let's go."

Among the researchers who went to City A this time, Professor Kang and Professor Shen were undoubtedly the two most respected, so everyone in the team showed them very high respect and respect.

"Okay." Professor Kang and Professor Shen looked at each other and nodded.

Before setting off, Baili Zhuo and Xiang Heng came over to say hello briefly to Qiao Yu and the others.

"Captain Qiao...recently..."

After Baili Zhuo left, Xiang Heng moved closer to Jiang Zhan and Qiao Yu, whispering to ask about Manman's situation. However, he was interrupted by Qiao Yu.

"Thank you for your concern, Captain Xiang. We have been doing fine as usual lately."

Qiao Yu smiled and spoke slowly. He seemed to be talking about them, but he was actually hinting at Xiang Heng. Manman was fine, but she hadn't woken up yet.

Xiang Heng understood Qiao Yu's hint, pursed his lips, and wanted to continue asking, but he also knew that it would be inappropriate with so many people around, so he curled his lips and said, "That's good, then I'll go back first. We can catch up some other day when we have time."

Qiao Yu smiled and nodded, watching Xiang Heng return to his car.

When getting in the car, Qiao Yu and his friends still drove their own RV. After all, Yu Qingchuan was there, so no one else said anything.

Yan Zijin sat in the passenger seat and glanced through the window at Qiao Yu and his group's RV. With a thoughtful look in his eyes, he asked the team members around him, "Are they not from the military?"

The driver in the driver's seat happened to be the same team member who had just spoken to Tang Ran. He nodded and whispered, "It's a mercenary hunting team. Their name is 'Big Pendulum'."

"Pendulum?" Yan Zijin repeated, raising the corner of his mouth slightly, looking like he was smiling.

The team member next to him laughed out loud, "Yeah, it's called the Pendulum. I laughed for quite a while when I first heard it."

"Although their name is a bit strange, I heard they were quite popular in the base before."

Yan Zijin had been on missions outside before, so he was not very clear about many things in the base.

"So popular?" Yan Zijin raised an eyebrow. "Is it because of your looks or your strength?"

The team member thought about it carefully and said, "All of them."

If it all depends on strength, they still seem to be a second-tier team; but if it all depends on luck, they do have some skills.

"I heard that when they first arrived at the base, they took on seventeen missions in one go, and then completed them very well within the specified time, directly advancing the team to level two within a week."

"Some time ago, they participated in the Mingxia Mountain mission. Their team took 30% of the reward! Even Zhuo Guang only took 10%."

Upon hearing this, Yan Zijin pursed her lips and said, "Oh? Is it that amazing?"

The team member nodded seriously, "Yes. And Baili Zhuo and Xiang Heng both speak highly of them."

Yan Zijin didn't say anything after hearing this, but stared at the RV that was slowly starting not far away with an even deeper look in his eyes.

As the vehicle was moving, Yan Zijin suddenly discovered that the person sitting in the driver's cab of the RV was Yu Qingchuan.

Yan Zijin was slightly stunned, and then his expression became more interested.

This "big pendulum" seems quite interesting...
