When he opened his eyes again, it was already an hour later. He checked the watch on his wrist to confirm the time.
"Xiaoxiao," he called her gently, "It's time to wake up..."
"Hmm..." Fu Xiao said vaguely: "Are we almost there?"
"Almost done, I'll go out and take a look,"
"Okay," she sat up from his arms, stretched her arms and legs, and followed him out of the cabin.
The port is vaguely visible ahead.
Shen Xingzhou re-entered the cabin and woke up Lu Yuan.
The boat docked at the shore. He looked at Fu Xiao and asked her opinion: "What should we do with the things?"
Fu Xiao looked to the side, saw the person he was looking for, and said, "Wait for me for a moment."
After saying that, she walked towards the marines standing by and showed her ID directly to one of the highest ranking officers.
The naval battalion commander took a look, returned her ID, saluted her, and asked her why she came: "What's the matter?"
Fu Xiao saluted him back and said with a smile: "There are some important instruments on the cargo ship behind. Can you arrange for someone to look after them?"
"Of course," he called over a few navy men and gave them some instructions.
Fu Xiao walked back to Shen Xingzhou and said, "I have to contact the research institute."
Lu Yuan smiled and scratched his head. "Xiao Xiao, I can actually find a lot of brothers with just one phone call."
She smiled and said, "I know."
"But this matter needs to go through the research institute,"
"Let's go," Shen Xingzhou took her hand, "I'll take you to make a phone call,"
Lu Yuan said: "You guys go, I'll stay here."
Shen Xingzhou took Fu Xiao directly to the duty room not far from the port.
Fu Xiao took out his ID and showed it to the person inside. He successfully borrowed a phone and called the research institute directly.
Office of the Director of the Institute.
When Chen Tingxu received a call from Fu Xiao, he thought something had happened to her and stood up nervously.
But when he heard her next words, he suddenly became excited: "Instrument? .... OK... OK, where is it? The port, right? I will immediately arrange for the local troops to take over. Procedures? No need, we can handle it in Beijing. How can I not be at ease with you, dear child, you have worked hard."
After hanging up the phone, he called his superior without any hesitation.
After explaining the reasons, the superiors arranged for personnel from the Guangzhou troops to escort the things to Beijing.
On the way back after the call, Shen Xingzhou leaned over to her ear and said, “Professor Yang’s manuscripts….”
Fu Xiao nodded: "I already released the cargo hold."
"Well," he led her back, "then let's wait."
She smiled faintly and said, "Soon,"
Not long after the two returned to the port, two military trucks, one large and one small, drove over. The man in the lead, dressed in military uniform, got out of the truck and walked towards Fu Xiao, saluting her: "Zhang Jiaxin reports to you..."
"I'll have to trouble Captain Zhang next,"
"It's my duty,"
Fu Xiao's eyes fell on the freighter behind him. "The things are all inside. Please be gentle when moving them."
"Okay," Zhang Jiaxin looked at the group of people behind him and waved his hand to signal them to step forward and take action.
A dozen strong soldiers worked on the task and quickly transferred the items to the military card.
Lu Yuan watched Zhang Jiaxin walk towards Fu Xiao again, as if reporting something, and couldn't help but sigh: "Xiao Xiao, this girl, has her military rank increased again?"
Shen Xingzhou next to her didn't say anything, but just looked at her with a smile on his face.
Fu Xiao said a few words to Zhang Jiaxin, then turned back to the two of them and said, "Let's go back too."
Lu Yuan glanced at the team behind him and asked, "Aren't you going to follow them?"
"There's no place for us here," Fu Xiao glanced at him, "and you two look so haggard, and you can't drive. Let's take the train for two days."
"That's right," Lu Yuan nodded, "Then let's go,"
"Um,"
The three were taken to the train station by the port staff and used their ID to buy three sleeper tickets.
The two-day train journey was mostly spent sleeping.
Lu Yuan, who was full of energy when he got off the train, took on the next task of driving.
