Chapter 807 Is this still a human being?
Seeing her expression change, Feng Tianyu quickly grabbed her hand and asked, "Are you feeling unwell again?"
Ye Wanxi nodded, clutching her pounding heart, and said in a hoarse voice, "Inside, alive."
Feng Tianyu understood the seemingly random sentence.
The thing they had been searching for was inside that big white egg, and it was alive!
Feng Tianyu narrowed his eyes, staring at the large white egg, and asked, "What's the next step?"
After a moment of stunned silence, Director Hong replied truthfully, "Filtration: After the impurities settle, the water will be extracted for filtration."
"Shut down the water plant immediately, pump out the water, and shut off the pipes above it as well, don't let any more water in."
"this……"
Before Factory Director Hong could say anything, Captain Nie, sensing something amiss, interjected, "Mr. Feng, there's something here..."
"Um."
Captain Nie's face lit up with joy, but then, remembering that this water plant supplied tap water to the entire town, his expression darkened.
Director Hong looked at this person, then at that person, completely bewildered, and finally couldn't help but ask, "What kind of riddle are you playing? Why shut down the water plant? This water..."
"This is a bit complicated to explain. You should do as Mr. Feng says for now. There's something wrong with the water. If things continue like this, something bad will really happen to the town, and neither you nor I can bear the consequences."
Before Director Hong could say anything after Captain Nie said this, the deputy director's face darkened: "There's a problem with the water in our water plant? That's impossible. Our water plant's equipment is the most advanced in the country, and it would rank among the best even if it were taken outside. Our people personally supervise every step of the water purification process, and we conduct detailed water quality analysis before the water leaves the plant. There's absolutely no way there could be a problem."
It's no wonder the deputy factory director reacted so strongly. Compared to the factory director, who frequently travels on official business at public expense, he, as the deputy factory director, is the one who manages the most affairs and is the busiest person in the entire factory.
When the deputy factory director heard Captain Nie's words, it was as if he were being accused of dereliction of duty. The deputy factory director, who had devoted himself to the entire factory, could not bear this injustice.
Captain Nie hadn't expected the deputy factory director to react so strongly to just cooperating with the investigation. He touched his nose and said, "That's not what I meant. There's nothing wrong with the machines in your factory, and there's nothing wrong with you either. Just consider it as cooperating with the inspection, and we'll bear all the consequences."
Feng Tianyu saw through the deputy factory director's thoughts and simply said, "Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. If you don't believe me, you can stay and watch."
The deputy factory director snorted coldly upon hearing this: "I'd like to see what you can come up with. Shutting down the water plant is a big deal. Give me a definite answer on how long it will be shut down, at least give the people in this small town an explanation."
Feng Tianyu didn't give an answer immediately. Instead, he looked at the large white egg in front of him and asked, "How long will it take to drain the water out of it?"
After thinking for a moment, Director Hong gave a somewhat imprecise answer: "It will take at least one or two hours."
This circulating water system has been running non-stop since it was started. It pumps out all the water in one go, and even the factory manager, Mr. Hong, couldn't say exactly when.
"Too slow." Feng Tianyu frowned, his eyes showing disdain. "One hour at most, shut it down."
The deputy director opened his mouth as if to say something, but ultimately said nothing. He made a phone call to instruct the staff to shut down the water plant and issue a public notice explaining the water outage as "routine maintenance of the water plant."
In terms of time, he still left room for Feng Tianyu and the other person, only saying that the water supply would be restored by eight o'clock the next morning at the latest.
No sooner had the water plant stopped than Feng Tianyu leaped onto the top of the giant white egg, opened the small door on its top, glanced at the bottomless, light green water below, and casually tossed out a small cauldron the size of a palm.
Director Hong and his colleague watched in disbelief as Feng Tianyu, without even needing a ladder, quickly climbed to the top of the water pump. They were completely dumbfounded.
"He...he...he..."
Captain Nie was also surprised. This was the first time he had seen Feng Tianyu take action. Although he had heard of him before, seeing him in person was much better than hearing about him.
Captain Nie admitted that he was no match for Feng Tianyu's skill in pumping.
Meeting the surprised gazes of Director Hong and his companion, Captain Nie inexplicably felt a sense of superiority and waved his hand dismissively, saying, "It's nothing, nothing."
Director Hong and his colleague: "..." They both felt that this guy was a bit too much to handle.
But soon, the two realized that what Captain Nie said was true. Compared to Feng Tianyu's subsequent actions, his move was really just a small-scale operation!
Feng Tianyu casually tossed the small cauldron forward, then spread his hands and placed them on the small door at the top of the water pump. The still water inside seemed to be under some kind of pressure, and was pumped up from the bottom in a way that was completely contrary to the laws of free fall.
With a whoosh, two huge water jets shot up from the pump outlet.
Not only were Factory Director Hong and the Deputy Factory Director stunned, but even Captain Nie and the young men he brought with them nearly popped their eyes out.
The water dragon that soared into the air did not linger outside for long, but turned around and plunged into the small cauldron that Fengtian Domain had just thrown out.
It was just a small cauldron, no bigger than the palm of your hand, but now it was like a gaping maw of an abyss, swallowing the two water dragons into it.
The sound of rushing water reached everyone's ears, and many people, looking at this surreal and dreamlike scene, almost thought they were dreaming.
"Old Hong, hit me." The deputy factory director's shrewd and handsome face was already blank with a dazed expression. He even tugged at his old boss, wanting him to pinch him.
Factory Director Hong was also in a daze, wondering, "Who am I? Where am I? What am I seeing?" Upon hearing the deputy factory director's words, he pinched him hard like a lost soul.
"Ouch~ Why are you pinching so hard? Your hand is all purple."
"Didn't you tell me to hit you?"
"Well, I didn't ask you to do that... never mind." The deputy factory director swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
It is because of the effort that it hurts, and that you realize that what you are seeing now is not a dream.
His dissatisfaction with these young people who had recently come to his territory to point fingers and question his work was like an inflated bubble that burst with a snap.
What followed was a profound shock and bewilderment: Is this even human?
The same conversation took place with the young men that Captain Nie brought, but compared to the shock of the two deputy factory directors, they were more excited than surprised.
What young person, full of youthful vigor and high spirits, doesn't dream of becoming a chivalrous hero?
At this moment, in the eyes of these young people, Fengtianyu was as tall and imposing as a majestic mountain, a guiding light, and exuded the aura of a hermit master.
They just don't know if this master takes on disciples. If he does, they're willing to pay any price to become his apprentice, even if it means changing jobs!
Captain Nie, who almost ended up as a commander without any troops: "..." Thank you all!
