Chapter 399 Nothing to Say
There was an obvious hint of sarcasm in this statement, so the two guards took a quick look and, after confirming that there was nothing written on the coin, relaxed.
As for special codes and the like, they are beyond the ability of their brains to decipher.
Even Eric, who is responsible for all this, would probably need to consider it for a long time before he could give an answer.
"Next, can we reunite as a family for a moment? Are we criminals being watched, with our every move controlled by others?"
Professor Huo made the request again and did not think there was anything wrong with it.
The two guards had just been ridiculed and did not dare to force the talented person at this time. They turned around and walked out without even saying a harsh word.
"People like us don't have any rights outside, but it's a shame for you to come here. Your every move is under the eyes of others."
After the outsiders left, Professor Huo spoke with a slightly guilty smile, seeming to blame himself a bit.
Chen Zhuyi is not the kind of person who cares about such things, and Huo Jinzhi will not be angry about this unavoidable situation. He came here with a mission and knows the burden on his shoulders better than anyone else.
As Chen Zhuyi expected, Huo Jinzhi smiled and waved his hands: "It's okay, we came here just to take you home."
Having said that, looking at the tight security now, they think it would be extremely difficult to take someone away.
Chen Zhuyi was filled with worry. She held Huo Jinzhi's hand tightly, but instead felt the man gently pat the back of her hand twice, as if to comfort her.
"Compared to us old folks going back, it's more important that those important manuscripts get back home." Professor Huo sighed, thought for a moment, and fished out a few sheets of paper from the cracks in the sofa. They were densely covered with data, and the handwriting was very small.
Even Chen Zhu felt a little pain in his eyes when he looked at these papers. He really didn't know how these predecessors wrote them!
"We've put almost everything we can down to here. Do you have any way to take the stuff away?"
This was Professor Huo’s only thought.
Chen Zhu looked at the old man's stubborn eyes and didn't know what to say for a long time. He sighed softly, "Yes."
"No matter how many things there are, if you are willing to give them to me and leave me alone for a while, I am sure they will disappear."
As for the methods used, there was no need to explain it to these people. Professor Huo's eyes lit up and he pushed his glasses up.
"Okay, there are a lot of things in the study. Come with us." Professor Huo and Lin Ting looked at each other, and the two walked in front, while Chen Zhuyi and Huo Jinzhi followed behind them.
The study is densely packed with books and even some equipment needed for experiments.
"These books are all worth taking away, along with our research materials and manuscripts from a long time ago. I hope they can be of great use in the future."
Having said that, Professor Huo touched the brown paper in his hand with some reluctance.
These are all treasures to him. All his hard work throughout his life is laid out here.
Chen Zhu looked at the old senior's reluctant look, and just looked at Huo Jinzhi and nodded in agreement.
After the two elders left, she flipped her little hand and hid all the things into the space, then walked out again.
"It's almost time. You should leave as soon as possible. Don't get involved in these struggles. You young people are our hope." Professor Huo took a deep breath and spoke meaningfully.
There was a hint of coldness in his eyes. Chen Zhu looked at the face and blinked, with some doubt in his eyes.
But the guard outside had already walked in quickly, with a look of urgency on his face. He didn't say it clearly, but his attitude was exposed in a straightforward manner.
"I know, you two are the seniors who are reluctant to leave here. Those who don't know would think that you are here to serve your sentence."
"We will also tell everyone about your country's attitude and how ridiculous your actions are!"
Chen Zhu frowned, looked very angry, and started to complain.
When the guards heard this, they just looked at each other without saying a word. They silently touched the weapons at their waists. This was the only truth.
"Don't be angry. It's a rare opportunity for us to come here. You don't have to leave with a lot of anger." Huo Jinzhi patted Chen Zhuyi's arm soothingly, signaling her not to be too angry.
Although she was comforted by her husband, Chen Zhuyi still rolled her eyes in annoyance and finally left here reluctantly.
"By the way, I have a few old friends who want to get together here in a couple of days. You two should come too. At least it has a bit of homey atmosphere and can make everyone relax." Professor Huo tried to persuade them to stay when they were about to leave, as if he suddenly remembered that there was this party.
Chen Zhu nodded happily and agreed.
"After the party is over, maybe that will be the best time for us to take them away."
After leaving the heavy surveillance, Huo Jinzhi lowered his voice and spoke softly.
He looked around, as if trying to ascertain the surrounding situation. Fortunately, no one came over to stare at them.
"Yes, the cargo ship will probably leave soon, so... we must direct all the risks towards ourselves."
Chen Zhuyi has also been paying attention to the movement of cargo ships along the way.
Many ships leave this port every day. If we can use them properly to temporarily assign these professors to other ships, and then bring them back when we reach a common route, it will be the most reliable way.
However, they didn't know anyone here, and even if they did, those people wouldn't necessarily help them.
Today, the Lighthouse Country is very powerful in the international arena, and few people can suppress their arrogance. Making enemies with this group of people without authorization is definitely not the best solution.
There were faint sounds of gunfire nearby. Huo Jinzhi hugged Chen Zhuyi, his steps became a little hurried, and he quickly walked towards where the crowd gathered.
"The chaos here is really speechless." Chen Zhuyi hid carefully, not forgetting to complain while holding Huo Jinzhi's hand tightly.
However, Huo Jinzhi next to him did not speak immediately. He was still a little doubtful, as it seemed that these gunshots had also occurred yesterday.
It’s not so much the chaos here, it’s more like someone is targeting them!
A feeling of being shrouded in conspiracy came to Huo Jinzhi's heart. He just subconsciously protected the people around him and made a decision silently.
Even if he dies here, Chen Zhuyi must return safely!
