Chapter 421 Deep Virtual Reality 249
"Hello, yes, I am your assistant Zhou Qin. Um, I'm sorry, Professor Xie's schedule is full for the time being. Okay, I will arrange another time after consulting with Professor Xie, and I will notify you in advance."
After hanging up, Zhou Qin did not contact Xie Ning immediately. Instead, she sent Xie Ning the edited email along with an attachment about the Shen Group, telling him to read it when he had time.
After glancing at the experimental area below, Zhou Qin composed herself. Most of the college student interns she had recruited had stayed, half of the researchers were assigned to Gu Xi to lead, and the other third were promoted to lead a group of outstanding interns.
The rest of the people, except for two who were given to her, all went off to different places with He Yan.
Actually, Xie Ning's schedule was blank during this period.
She stayed at the experimental base to help Xie Ning with some daily affairs, Gu Xi watched over the progress of the experiment, while He Yan took a few people and went to Nanhu District with Xie Ning.
The area had just been recaptured by the Federation, and to be honest, there were still quite a few remnants of the rebel forces there. Zhou Qin was a little worried, but apart from helping Xie Ning with miscellaneous tasks and relationships with various parties, there was nothing else she could do to help.
But that was enough. Although Xie Ning often felt that there weren't enough people, she was still very satisfied with her three assistants.
Whether it's Gu Xi, who is already capable of handling things independently in the laboratory, Zhou Qin, who can coordinate and balance relationships between various parties and properly arrange schedules, or He Yan, who is now calm and composed enough, they are all shining in their respective positions.
Nanhu District is located at the southernmost tip of Binghai City. It is the largest district in Binghai City, with numerous planting bases scattered across its vast land.
However, the planting bases here are different from traditional planting bases. They are enclosed in towering buildings, and the growth of many crops relies on nutrient solutions and artificial light.
Only a small portion of the crops will be planted in specially treated small-scale planting areas where the soil has been specially treated with technology to remove all excessive harmful substances below the standard.
Furthermore, monitoring and processing will be carried out regularly.
Although the planting bases here are small, that's relative. Their area is similar to other planting bases, but the buildings are not tall, or rather, they have no buildings at all.
There are mountains, water, and plants here. Although some pesticides are used to kill pests, keep the crops healthy, and promote growth, they are considered naturally grown crops compared to those grown hydroponically with growth hormones.
Therefore, agricultural products produced here are more expensive, and are basically high-end products.
The surrounding environment is also much better than that of ordinary cities.
Xie Ning stood on the tea plantation in the mountains and saw a rare gray-blue sky. Fine white mist lingered among the green mountains, and a light drizzle fell, carrying a hint of chill.
Isn't it beautiful?
"Hmm." There is such a world outside the city. It turns out that the suburbs are not just desolate deserts.
Maintaining such a beautiful view must have cost a fortune.
Professor Yun Jing sighed softly. A gentle breeze ruffled her black hair, but it couldn't erase the fine lines at the corners of her eyes.
"This is the Shen family's tea plantation. Other families also own many similar private properties, including the Langley family. In fact, I own quite a few myself."
Her mother did not mistreat her; as a highly valued daughter, she had only slightly less than Lillian.
Xie Ning didn't speak; the chill brought by the rain made the mask on her face appear even colder.
Professor Yun Jing didn't mind, and slowly revealed her purpose, "As a token of sincerity, I can tell you all the experiments I know about alien creatures, but there are conditions."
What do you want?
"Help me kill someone."
"who?"
"Lillian".
Xie Ning's expression froze for a moment, and his breathing became noticeably heavy. "Professor Lillian? Isn't she... already dead?"
Whether it was what 208 said or what Zhan Lin and Yin Yue saw with their own eyes, Lillian died at the hands of Night Shadow.
She didn't believe they would deceive themselves about this.
But if Lillian were still alive, Xie Ning's heart leaped into her throat. Although she remained cautious, she only revealed her ice elemental attribute during the ability test and did not mention her ability to mist through walls.
However, if Lillian investigates further, she can still find some clues. Xie Ning thought back to whether she had left any evidence against herself.
Yun Jing was not surprised by Xie Ning's answer, because Lillian was indeed dead to the public.
