Chapter 344 Scientific Research vs. Open Mountain Research
Ma Qijun looked at Zhao Jinlong expressionlessly, his eyes like a hawk, as if he wanted to see through this swearing man.
Ye Xiaomei returned to the kitchen and looked through the glass window anxiously. This matter was more serious than she had imagined. What should she do?
Originally he wanted to find out some news, but Ye Xiaomei's arrival made Feng Baichuan not bring up the matter any further. After eating and drinking, Ma Qijun sent Ye Xiaomei to the family compound and went directly to the office.
Ye Xiaomei tossed and turned in bed, thinking carefully about Zhang Erquan's unusual expression.
It was not until dawn that Ma Qijun tiptoed back. He was worried about waking up his wife, but she was not asleep at all.
"How's the investigation going?" Ye Xiaomei quickly stood up and poured tea for the man.
Ma Qijun paused for a moment before taking the teacup and said, "We found a few people who are suspicious and have already called them in for questioning."
Ye Xiaomei couldn't wait to add: "Is there Zhang Erquan?"
Ma Qijun put the teacup that he had just brought to his mouth back on the table, his eyes slightly different:
"How did you know there was a Zhang Erquan?"
Although this man was a rookie, all his physical indicators were top-notch among this batch of recruits, so Ma Qijun asked for him immediately and always had a very good impression of him.
Ye Xiaomei was confused for a while, but she felt that this matter had too much impact, so she just told the truth:
"I heard from Heizi that he went out hunting while we were watching the show. But I ate some pheasant meat. You won't punish him for such a small thing, will you?"
Ma Qijun frowned: "Compared to that, this matter is naturally not worth mentioning, because Zhang Erquan has already admitted it, and the kitchen also found the remaining pheasant meat. He was only punished by writing a self-criticism."
"Oh." Ye Xiaomei said, looking around bewilderedly:
"Just now when we were in the kitchen, we noticed that he had a strange expression when he heard you guys talking. What does this mean?"
Ma Qijun instantly perked up and sat down to listen to his wife tell him every detail of what happened in the kitchen.
He originally really thought that Zhao Jinlong wanted to harm him. It seemed that Zhang Erquan was really weird, but there were too many issues involved here.
For example, why did he want to be a spy? And what were those things in the cave? Even if he was a spy, the Japanese were obviously going for those things and did not make any move to inquire about our military intelligence.
He also took people to check it out at night. The things in the cave could not be dug out, and even explosions were impossible. What was the point of leaving them there?
Ma Qijun warned: "Don't tell anyone about this until you understand the details behind it."
After saying that, Ma Qijun forced Ye Xiaomei to lie on the bed and let her sleep a little longer. He then washed himself, changed his clothes, and went out again.
It was almost noon, and Ye Xiaomei didn't want to delay her man's work, so she went to the cafeteria to eat alone. When she came back, she heard that the research team had arrived and they were all in Dongshan. She didn't even have time to eat.
He also said that the things he found were extremely hard, so he had to dispatch a squad of soldiers to dig and break the mountain in an attempt to expose the things in the cave.
Ye Xiaomei felt itchy inside after hearing this. She also wanted to know what that thing was and how the black toad got in. Why was only this one picked out while the others could not be dug out.
Most importantly, Ye Xiaomei really wanted to know whether there were other snake eggs in that hole.
Thinking of this, Ye Xiaomei washed her lunch box and hurried out. On the way, she saw from afar that the Police Department had obviously increased their inspection efforts. After all, such a big thing had happened recently.
Ye Xiaomei suddenly had an idea and turned back. She took her lunch box and water bottle and ran to the cafeteria again. She got some food and when she came back, she was so tired that she almost had a choke.
Fortunately, Ye Xiaomei was now familiar to the crowd. She said she was there to deliver food to Ma Qijun and waved the water bottle on her waist in front of the guards, who then let her go.
From a distance you can see a crowd of people on the East Mountain, some are digging the soil, and some are blasting the mountain with explosives.
What was originally a very small hole has now been blown up into a large area of rock, as big as three PLA trucks.
Ye Xiaomei sneaked into the crowd and looked for Ma Qijun first, but she didn't see any of his people. She only saw Heizi leading the team to dig the mountain.
There were several scientific researchers, both male and female. One of them, who looked the oldest and had the highest prestige, was standing with his hands behind his back, looking at the site of the opening from afar.
A woman in her thirties with neat short hair and a very advanced camera hanging around her neck was explaining something to the leader.
It doesn't matter if it's Qin Rong? Ye Xiaomei was also drunk. Why did they send her here? Isn't she a biological researcher at the Medical University?
For an unknown mineral like this, we should invite a geologist to study it. Maybe they know that there are black toads inside it?
Thinking of this, Ye Xiaomei scratched the back of her hand, feeling extremely itchy in her heart.
She licked her cheeks and squeezed through the crowd to walk inside: "Make way, I am the wife of the commander of the Army Wild Wolf Regiment." Unexpectedly, she was pulled down.
The young man saluted politely and also politely refused: "Hello sister-in-law, you can't just come in here casually. It would be bad if something goes wrong when opening the mountain and hurts sister-in-law."
Seeing how polite it was, it was hard to refuse. However, unable to resist her curiosity, Ye Xiaomei could only jump up and wave:
"Professor Qin, this is Ye Xiaomei, Professor Qin..."
A few shouts finally interrupted the conversation between Qin Rong and the old man. She turned her head to look over here, said a few brief words to the old man, and hurriedly waved to Ye Xiaomei.
The young man scratched his head in surprise and then let Ye Xiaomei in.
It's not a big deal to go in this time. The mountain has been dug and exploded with pits and holes. You can run to Qin Rong with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
Qin Rong was not surprised, but introduced with a kind smile: "Mr. Lin, this is Ye Xiaomei I mentioned. She is young and promising, and is a talent that our research department has reserved."
Mr. Lin had a serious expression on his face. He looked Ye Xiaomei up and down. He nodded and walked towards the construction site.
It seemed that this old man was difficult to communicate with. Ye Xiaomei pretended to know nothing and said, "I didn't expect to see you here. I just came to deliver food to my husband, but I haven't found him yet. By the way, Professor Qin, what are you researching?"
Qin Rong was not surprised. She had known for a long time that this girl had come to the 615th Military Region. She said in a good mood:
"The things discovered this time are rarer than those in the past few decades. At present, they are of great research value. It is a good opportunity for you to gain some knowledge while you are here. It will be very helpful for your future development. Come..."
Qin Rong said this as he led Ye Xiaomei towards the construction site.
Ye Xiaomei followed slowly, taking one step forward and one step back, to the bottom of the mountain slope. When she saw this, her eyes widened.
Although the surrounding mountains have been dug up, the gray-black rocks that do not shine when exposed to the sun are tightly connected together, looking like irregular round tumors standing together, and there is no regularity at all, but they are so hard that knives and guns cannot penetrate them.
What’s even more frightening is that after digging very deep, these stones of similar size seem to have taken root, and there’s no idea how they’re able to stay firmly rooted deep underground.
Ye Xiaomei asked foolishly: "Dear teacher, isn't this just an ordinary stone? What research value does it have?"
Qin Rong patted Ye Xiaomei on the shoulder and said proudly: "These stones will glow before we start digging, and they are extremely hard. Look at that one."
Ye Xiaomei followed Qin Rong's hand and looked over. She was pointing at a man in a work shirt, who was writing and drawing on a folder in his arms with a worried look on his face.
Qin Rong continued, "This is a famous geologist. I'll introduce you to him later. It will be convenient for you to get to know him when you graduate and ask for help."
Ye Xiaomei nodded. This was not what she was concerned about. She asked impatiently:
"I see that geologist is frowning. Is it possible that he can't figure out what this thing is?"
