Tang Guofu originally intended to take advantage of the fact that no one from the military region had arrived yet and recruit this special mutant into his own ranks.
During their few days in Jingnan, although their team didn't actually treat any patients, they weren't entirely without results.
After the sonic wave ability awakener that Tang Guofu brought forced out the demonic energy from the police team's mutants, the energy was collected by them in a special container because it could not be destroyed.
Subsequent research into this energy led to astonishing discoveries.
They discovered that this energy was perfectly compatible with all catalytic conditions, and combined with the destructive power exhibited by the mutants, it was easy to conclude that it could greatly enhance the five-dimensional attributes of the human body.
That's why Old Man Tang took the mission to capture Sun Hu so seriously. He crossed the river with the police, hoping to take his research findings and the demon Sun Hu back to the capital.
However, before he could receive any news from Sun Hu, he heard about a new discovery at the dock, so he rushed over without stopping, shamelessly trying to forcibly seize the special research sample.
However, he was held up by Wang Zheng for a while, and now he has attracted the great Gu Min. It seems that it is impossible to take this special mutant away this time.
Since neither his literary nor martial skills were up to par, Tang Guofu could only nod in agreement, adopt a student-like demeanor, cup his hands in a respectful bow to Gu Min, and then slunk away with his men.
But as Pei Yuan was leaving, he gave Wang Zheng a strange smile, which almost made Wang Zheng lose his temper and punch him.
Staring at the departing van, Wang Zheng squinted his eyes with a grin.
"Old Gu, the capital is truly the capital, a place for the elite. Even their application of the Heavenly Demon Awakening is ahead of ours. It's really remarkable."
Hearing Wang Zheng's sarcastic remarks, Gu Min swung her cane at Wang Zheng's buttocks.
"What, does Lieutenant Wang mean to you that he thinks this old man is useless and that we're behind schedule?"
Wang Zheng naturally stood at attention and took the beating obediently, and even had to smile.
"No way, Mr. Gu, you're overthinking it. I just don't like that guy's arrogant attitude."
"Hey, you didn't see it, but this old man was just about to recommend me for further studies at the Imperial Research Institute in Beijing."
As he spoke, Wang Zheng cleared his throat and began to imitate.
"Hey kid, you need to broaden your horizons. What can you possibly know by staying in this remote, impoverished place? You're just a frog in a well. If you step aside now, I'll recommend you to study at the Imperial Research Institute. That's a benefit that many people would kill for."
Then Wang Zheng changed the subject and couldn't help but complain:
"I just don't understand. How could this old man not recognize me? It's obvious he wouldn't. Or does he genuinely think I'm ignorant and don't realize the value of my special ability?"
Hearing Wang Zheng's complaints, Gu Min shook her head and sighed.
"Sigh, he wasn't wrong. The research institute in the capital is indeed progressing much faster than our research in southern Beijing and the military region."
They are directly affiliated with the Chinese Academy of Sciences. All research projects across the country ultimately converge at their research institutes in Beijing. By learning from each other's strengths and making up for each other's weaknesses, and with the largest number and highest quality of researchers, we are indeed like frogs in a well compared to them.
Wang Zheng, you need to know that the most famous, rarest, and strangest superpowers in the country basically all have to be registered in the capital.
With a population of over 800 million in China, it's not surprising to find a few awakened individuals capable of having special effects against the Heavenly Demons. That's why they've been somewhat dismissive of you. If you really want to pursue this path in the future, the capital city is indeed an unavoidable destination..."
Wang Zheng quickly interrupted the old man's rambling.
"Old Gu, please stop reading. The thought of other research institutes being full of old men like you makes me want to lose all my hair. You know I'm just a half-baked researcher, what can I possibly do?"
At this point, Wang Zheng's eyes darted around, and he tentatively asked:
"Mr. Gu, um, have you heard any rumors lately?"
Seeing Wang Zheng's mischievous appearance, Gu Min couldn't help but chuckle, then her expression turned serious.
"What did you hear? Are you asking if this old man knows any stories of people displaying great prowess on the Yunnan-Guizhou battlefield?"
Wang Zheng's heart skipped a beat.
"Sure enough, the old man has some information. It means the military region is deliberately suppressing the fighting in Yunnan, and recently there hasn't been any information about Yunnan online or on TV. Is the country about to make some major move?"
Although Wang Zheng had some guesses in his mind, he didn't ask them directly. He just lowered his head and kept quiet.
Seeing Wang Zheng lower his head, Gu Min gently patted his back and whispered a warning:
"Don't act rashly. Think things through before you act, and consider your own feelings."
Like today, if I hadn't come, and a conflict had broken out between the two sides, were you really planning to beat them both up?
What's the use of brute force? What if they swarm you and attack you in a real fight? What if they try to sabotage you behind your back later?
Wang Zheng knew that the old man's words had a double meaning; he was not only referring to today's events, but also taking the opportunity to talk about how he rushed into the Demon King's battlefield in Yunnan to save Old Man Chu.
However, despite the old man's verbal reprimands, the admiration in his eyes was undeniable.
After much thought, Wang Zheng realized that Old Master Gu was probably more afraid than anything else, afraid that he, a rising star from southern Beijing, would be stuck in Yunnan forever because of his recommendation.
