Professor Zhang seemed stunned for a moment, and said a little awkwardly: "Captain Gu, I don't remember how I got out and returned to Zhangjia Village. As for the lotus cane... it's too secret. After discussing with the deputy captain, I thought that for safety reasons, only the archaeological team should know about it. But I didn't expect so many things to happen, so I decided to tell everyone after I came in to reassure everyone."
He added: "It's not meant to be against you, really."
Gu Siyin's eyes were still sharp: "Have you really lost your memory?"
"Um!"
"How could this be?"
"This... I don't know either."
Professor Zhang said confusedly.
Gu Siyin asked calmly, "Then why didn't you take it out and leave once when you were in danger before?"
Professor Zhang sweated a little and smiled bitterly, "I don't remember. But I think I wanted to take a deeper look at it, so as not to return empty-handed. I didn't expect the danger to become greater and greater. By the time I realized it, it was already too late."
Gu Siyin frowned and looked at Professor Zhang, but said nothing more.
Lin Wu suddenly had an idea and decided to take this opportunity to check out the lotus cane.
She stepped forward and said, "I have a guess. You all know that I am a mysterious master. Before I came in, I found that the passage was opened by using magic with the lotus cane. But as far as I know, there are very few magic tools that ordinary people can use, and most of them will have side effects. Professor Zhang, your amnesia may be due to this."
Professor Zhang was slightly stunned.
Lin Wu stretched out his hand and said, "Show me the lotus cane, and I should be able to confirm it."
"this……"
Professor Zhang hesitated.
"What's the matter? Are you hiding something from me if you don't give it to me?" Ren Ke sneered.
Professor Zhang: “Of course not!”
Bai Jing said calmly: "Then let Lin Wu take a look."
Han Yuesong and Gao Zhouwen also looked at Professor Zhang with suspicion in their eyes, exerting invisible pressure.
Professor Zhang was in a dilemma and had to go back and get it for Lin Wu.
Lin Wu took it, made a gesture, and rubbed his hand over it.
Then, she narrowed her eyes slightly.
"How?" Han Yuesong asked immediately.
Lin Wu looked up at Professor Zhang, who was forcing a smile, and said, "The material of this magic weapon is unknown. This is my first time seeing it, so I can't tell. But I am sure it is just a 'key' and is harmless to people. There is also a special restriction on it, which makes me unsure whether people are using it as a medium to perform magic, or simply stimulating the magic contained in the restriction that it already has."
"Miss Lin, look at what you said. Could it be that I am a master of magic?" Professor Zhang said.
"If it's not because of this, what else could be the reason for your amnesia?" Ren Ke also looked at him, "Could it be that there is a place here with a special mechanism, with drugs that can confuse people's minds and make them forget?"
"Maybe. I don't know when I got infected." Professor Zhang said, holding out his hand: "Ms. Lin, you can give it back to me."
"What's the hurry?" Lin Wu didn't move, and said, "I have another question, I hope Professor Zhang can answer it."
"What?"
"Why did your archaeological team come here?"
"Of course I want to conduct archaeological research..."
"But along the way, I never heard you mention anything related to this. You don't seem to care. Besides, after all this, Professor Zhang, do you really think there will be archaeological discoveries here? What archaeological aspects are related to this?"
Lin Wu threw out a series of questions.
Professor Zhang's expression was slightly hesitant.
Now the way they looked at Professor Zhang changed.
"I'm telling you, we've all escaped here together, just speak your mind, who would laugh at you for having ulterior motives?" Ren Ke rolled his eyes and pointed his finger at Han Yuesong and Gao Zhouwen, "And you guys, you risked your lives to protect him, you don't have any shameful relationship with him, do you?"
"Of course not! We are just following orders from our superiors to protect Professor Zhang." Han Yuesong said coldly.
"Order? Whose order?" Gu Siyin asked, "How come I don't know? Who at No. 49 would give such an order? And why didn't I receive it before?"
Guan Chen and the others looked at Gu Siyin in astonishment. They didn't expect that the other party was actually No. 49! Han Yuesong and Gao Zhouwen were shocked, "Gu Siyin, the team rules do not allow us to reveal our identities!"
"There are no outsiders here." Gu Siyin said bluntly, "She is my sister. The others are my sister's friends! My sister believes it, and I believe it too! As for Professor Zhang..."
A hint of murderous intent flashed across Gu Siyin's eyes.
Professor Zhang couldn't help but take a step back.
Han Yuesong and Gao Zhouwen were surprised: "Your sister? Lin Wu??"
They looked at Lin Wu, then at Gu Siyin, their eyes widened.
It must be said that the two of them seem a bit similar...but how could they be sisters!
"Why are you pretending? Didn't you know it a long time ago? And you still want to pull my sister into No. 49!" Gu Siyin sneered.
Two people: "? We didn't..."
Gu Siyin: "Don't you want my sister to go to No. 49?"
"Bah! Isn't it? You lied to me like that back then, do you think I will believe you now?!" Gu Siyin rushed forward and punched each of them, pointing at them and saying, "I warn you, stop it! If you dare to attract my sister's attention again, my second brother and I will not let you go!"
"? Really not!"
Han Yuesong and Gao Zhouwen were both stunned and felt extremely wronged.
Gu Siyin said impatiently: "Let's get back to the point. Who are you following orders from?"
Lin Wu beside him coughed twice, and Bai Jing and others watched the fun in silence.
Han Yuesong and Gao Zhouwen felt dizzy and almost fell down.
You're done with the fucking fight, let's get back to business!
How could it be so good? ! But thinking of Gu Siyin's background, the two swallowed their anger and said, "How do we know? When we came here, our superiors told us to do what we wanted, hide our identities, and protect Professor Zhang and others so that no one would find out. Everyone else is dead, so Professor Zhang can't die too, otherwise how can we report on our work when we go back?"
"Is it that simple?" Gu Siyin didn't believe it.
The two were about to vomit blood: "Really!!"
Lin Wu's eyes turned and he asked Professor Zhang, "So what is the purpose of the archaeological team?"
Professor Zhang nodded in agreement and said nothing.
Lin Wu snapped his fingers.
"bass--"
Ren Ke drew his sword.
Professor Zhang said quickly: "We have no other purpose, just... just for the legendary meteorite here!"
Han Yuesong and Gao Zhouwen looked at him instantly: "How do you know about meteorites?"
Professor Zhang knew he couldn't escape, so he smiled bitterly and said, "In fact, the anonymous information we received mainly talked about the meteorites here, which might contain extraterrestrial life forms. But this is just our speculation. It's a serious matter, so we didn't make it public. Only the deputy team leader and I knew about it. We made up other reasons to apply so that we can come here naturally."
"After coming here, I thought I had to go deeper to see the meteorite, so I didn't take out the lotus cane. When I finally took it out, it was too late. I swear, I didn't lie to you!"
Professor Zhang was very confident and sincere.
Gu Siyin suddenly said, "But the one who accepted your application is No. 49. No. 49 won't believe it so easily. Are you sure that no one above you will find out when you make up the reason for your application?"
"this……"
Professor Zhang hesitated.
Guan Chen scowled and shouted, "Speak!"
Professor Zhang shuddered and said quickly, "At first, I didn't. But after I went in twice, accidents happened one after another. When I applied for rescue again, I received a call from above. I didn't dare to hide it and told the truth. After that, Captain Han and his team came."
"Sure enough. What you want to explore is extraterrestrial civilization, which is related to the Nantianmen Project. And No. 49 also wants to find out the origin of the meteorite, so they sent you, and they also ask Han Yuesong and others to protect you." Gu Siyin said in a deep voice.
Han Yuesong and Gao Zhouwen stared at each other: "Gu Siyin! How could you even tell us about the Nantianmen plan?!"
Gu Siyin rolled her eyes. "There are no outsiders involved. Besides, my sister already knows about it."
“You, you, you…”
Their faces turned pale, and finally they looked at Lin Wu and the others with calculating eyes.
These people cannot be killed casually to keep it secret.
Otherwise, they will all be recruited into No. 49... But what about that internationally wanted killer? Ahhhhh I'm going to die!!
"I'll go to you guys!"
Before the two of them could look out, they were knocked back by Gu Siyin's sudden punch.
Gu Siyin's face was full of coldness: "Don't look at my sister with that trapping look. If you still dare to think of putting her in No. 49, I will make you bear the name of dying in the line of duty here today! Isn't it enough that the Gu family has been betrayed by you two!"
The two of them felt really wronged: "We told you we didn't know she was your sister! How could anyone tell?"
"How dare you say my sister and I don't look alike?!"
Gu Siyin was displeased, with murderous intent in her eyes.
Two people: “…”
I'm convinced! Is this the point? ! Lin Wu cleared his throat and drew their attention back: "Let's get down to business, Captain Han, you're here for the meteorite as well. But how did No. 49 determine that there was a meteorite here three years ago? Can it be done through stone?"
Han Yuesong and Gao Zhouwen were both a little autistic, and answered with a hopeless look, "Maybe. We first knew there was something strange here from Shi Xing, who told us that Zheng Jingmin's son Zheng Mingxian had met some strange people when he came to Lingnan. Zheng Jingmin investigated and found that it was inextricably linked to the '511' case, so No. 49 sent people here. We don't know what happened afterwards, but in the end No. 49 quickly confirmed that the meteorite here could be used."
"I heard that this time No. 49 also sent people from Shixing to look for the meteorite, and later received their distress signal, right?" Lin Wu said.
Both: “Yes.”
Lin Wu asked: "Why didn't you go find Shi Xing and the others, but came to Zhangjia Village instead?"
Han Yuesong said solemnly: "Something has happened to the person. Is it any use going over there? It's better to come in and see what's going on first."
"Oh, right." Gao Zhouwen pointed to the back, "Two hours ago, we found the young master of Shixing, Zheng Mingxian, unconscious in a stone chamber. Right there."
