Chapter 173 Preliminary Practice



Moreover, saying there was no experiment is actually meaningless; even if such an experiment were conducted, it would be impossible to know whether it was successful or not, as there was no reference or control.

The only way to know if the experiment was successful is to have someone who has already traveled back in time prove it, but who would believe something that hasn't happened yet?

"Professor Mu, please give me a day to consider it. I will give you an answer tomorrow," Lin Yue said after glancing at Cang Yu and thinking for a while.

Actually, she didn't need to consider herself; she needed to consider Cang Yu. If it really was the latter scenario, where not only would they fail, but they would also have to endure the torment of radioactive elements, then she didn't want Cang Yu to take that risk with her.

Seeing Lin Yue's actions, Cang Yu knew what she was thinking. He immediately grabbed her hand under the table, holding it tightly with a slight force, and then answered Professor Mu.

"No need to think about it anymore, let's try. When can we start?"

"This..." Professor Mu didn't know whose advice to take.

After they make their decision, the machine will need to be debugged to find the brainwave frequencies of the two people in the past. This process will take an uncertain amount of time, possibly a few hours or a day or two. Once the machine is started, it will be useless after it has been used, and all the data will need to be overturned before further research can be conducted.

It's also because he lacks ability; the things he makes are disposable.

"Listen to me, I'll give you all an answer tomorrow," Lin Yue said firmly, grasping Cang Yu's hand.

She needed a buffer period to finalize Cang Yu's thoughts, and Cang Yu also needed time to determine whether doing this was truly worthwhile.

Moreover, there were also gray wolves and snow wolves; she forgot to arrange for two.

They just arrived as if nothing had happened. The Azure Wolf and Snow Wolf were still at home. Originally, the plan was to leave the two to Cang Jun and Warehouse En to raise, but the two of them had never appeared in the past few months.

If they hadn't shown up, the gray wolf and the snow wolf would probably have starved to death inside without anyone noticing.

"Miss Lin," Mayor Tang suddenly spoke, interrupting Lin Yue's thoughts.

"Mayor Tang, please speak." Lin Yue composed herself and looked at Mayor Tang.

"I brought you here today to discuss the terms we agreed on earlier. We need to confirm this with you again."

"Of course!" Lin Yue wasn't one to go back on her word.

“Then listen carefully, just in case there’s any mistake. What Miss Lin needs to give up is two cubic meters of medicine, which was the additional condition for the exchange. Now…” Mayor Tang looked around, and everyone nodded at him, “We have two more requests, and we hope Miss Lin can consider them.”

Lin Yue vaguely guessed what Mayor Tang wanted to say, but she didn't respond and just waited for Mayor Tang to continue.

Mayor Tang, as the representative speaking, felt somewhat embarrassed by their attempt to "raise prices arbitrarily," but there was nothing he could do but speak out.

"Miss Lin, we hope you can hand over your two wolves to the military to raise. We promise that we will take good care of them."

Lin Yue believed this.

The cubs that Jiang Ci took away earlier were well taken care of by the lovely people in the army. Although the food wasn't as good as what Lin Yue provided, they still had plenty to eat and drink, and even more plentiful food than the soldiers. They also kept their promise to Lin Yue that she could visit them anytime she wanted.

The five little guys have always been very dependent on Lin Yue. Although they can stand on their own in the army, they always act like little brats in front of Lin Yue. Every time Lin Yue visits them, they abandon their trainers and surround her, refusing to leave.

Handing over the gray wolf and snow wolf to the military seems like a good option. At least the military can treat them as partners, rather than as food reserves to be eaten at any time.

Mayor Tang paused to take a sip of water, then continued, "Another thing, we hope that Miss Lin can leave everything in her space to the country. Although we don't have anything to exchange with you, we guarantee that these things will be put to good use and there will be no favoritism. Of course, if the experiment is unsuccessful and Miss Lin remains at the base, the country will return all these things to you, without keeping a single thing for yourself."

Lin Yue stared blankly at the person opposite her. Although she was confident, she had been at the J City base for so long that she hadn't bothered to hide certain things, so it was understandable that people could guess what she was talking about.

It was all done for the country's benefit, to show that she had enough leverage to get what she wanted. She just didn't expect the country to bring it up at this time, as she hadn't coveted it at all before.

She should be grateful that she lives in a country with such a reasonable leader.

"Mayor Tang, we'll give you all a response to this matter tomorrow." Things had already come to this point, so she didn't bother to hide anything anymore; there was no point in hiding anything.

"Fine, if you decide not to try, then pretend we never said anything. No one will use this to threaten you."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yue looked at the person behind her who hadn't spoken again, and saw that the person nodded solemnly to her.

“Okay, I understand. Mayor Tang, there’s something else I’d like to ask you.” Lin Yue looked at Cang Yu. She knew that he had been very worried about Cang Jun and Cang Jue during this time.

"Please feel free to ask."

“We have two friends, one named Cang Jun and the other Cang Jue. A few months ago, they said the base was recruiting people, but it needed to be kept secret and they couldn't tell us what it was for, and that we wouldn't see them for a long time. They left and we haven't heard from them for months. Could you help me find out which department they work in?”

I originally thought they would come back once before they left, but I never expected to see them again.

Professor Mu felt that the names Cang Jun and Cang Jue sounded familiar, as if he had heard them somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where. He had to go through them in his mind again and again, and finally he remembered that the two people guarding the radioactive element stripper in the laboratory both had the surname Cang.

When his subordinates told him about it, he thought that since the two men shared the same surname as Cang Yu, they might be related. Later, he met the two men again and saw that they looked quite sturdy and should be very durable, so they shouldn't have died before the time machine was successfully developed. Therefore, he didn't pay any more attention to them.

Now, Lin Yue must be referring to these two people!

"Lin Yue, the two people you mentioned probably work at the research institute. I have two men with the surname Cang there. One has a baby face and is very lively, while the other is more composed."

That baby-faced girl was so lively that he remembered her after only seeing her once, though he couldn't immediately recall her name.

"Professor Mu, it's them. What are they doing over there? Why can't they come out?" Before Lin Yue could speak, Cang Yu couldn't help but ask.

"They guard the radioactive element stripper at the research institute, 24 hours a day without interruption."

Lin Yue and Cang Yu were stunned.

Radioactive element strippers are extremely harmful to the body if kept in close proximity for extended periods. At best, they can cause serious illness; at worst, they can cost you your life within a few months.

Why would they do such a thing? They have plenty of food and drink. Even if they didn't want to keep relying on her, they could support themselves in the police patrol team, at most they would just eat worse.
