Chapter 617: A Penalty Shot!
Seeing Gu Yin's certainty, the old leader said nothing more and nodded: "In that case, you can do it your way. I only have one requirement: the experiment you are doing now cannot be stopped. You must do your best. This is crucial to whether our country can stand at the top in international medicine! Once it succeeds, those expensive drugs will no longer require our comrades from the Social Security Bureau to humbly beg for help."
Gu Yin had seen some videos online in her previous life. Some medicines could be bought with money, but medicines that originally cost only a few dollars would be sold at several times the price by other countries just because our country wanted to buy them! And some rare medicines, our country couldn't even get a glimpse of them, let alone buy them!
This medicine is extremely hard to find!
Gu Yin nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, this is my hard work, I won't give up halfway!"
After the matter was settled, Gu Yin and Lu Jie enjoyed a meal prepared by the imperial chef at their former boss's place, and then left satisfied.
This time, because Lu Jie was there, she didn't need Uncle Lin to take her.
Once in Lu Jie's car, Lu Jie couldn't wait to ask, "Is this a deal? You have to study computer science! My requirements aren't high. You've only had two years at Qingdao University and you've already achieved these two results! In our computer science field, you can't be worse than those in biology, right?"
Gu Yin rolled her eyes inwardly and said helplessly, "Minister Lu! What do you mean by 'not inferior to biology'? Otherwise, should I build you a lithography machine? Or maybe some holographic technology?"
Lu Jie cleared his throat twice: "If your physics isn't bad either, then it's not impossible. I believe in you!"
Gu Yin angrily interrupted, "Stop the car! Stop the car! I want to get out! This is too scary! I'd rather go back to my experiments! Are you not treating me like a human being?! I'm not a god! I'm just a nobody! Stop the car!"
Lu Jie immediately locked the doors and windows and quickly reassured him, "I was just joking! There's no need to get out of the car! Really not! Just don't hold back your abilities! The rest is up to you!"
Gu Yin hummed in response, then sat up straight and asked, "Then I'll study at school and ask you if I don't understand anything in the future?"
Lu Jie nodded: "If you learn computer science, physics, and mathematics well, I will give you some internal books later. When you have learned enough, I will give you tasks, similar to what you did in high school, but there will be more to learn, so you will be even busier."
That's no problem; Gu Yin was prepared when she made this plan.
When Gu Yin got home, she saw two strangers chatting with the old man and the others.
"Grandpa, we have guests?!" Gu Yin greeted them with a smile, "Hello."
After saying that, she wanted to go inside and change her clothes, but the old man stopped her: "Ayin, they came to see you."
Gu Yin was surprised and looked the two men over again. They were two men, one young and one middle-aged. The young man looked to be around 30 years old and the older man looked to be around 50 years old. They were dressed in civilian clothes and sat upright. Judging from this, they should be soldiers.
"Looking for me? Is there something you need?" Gu Yinxin couldn't help but ask.
The two stood up, and the older one looked at Gu Yin and smiled, "There are some things we need to ask you about. Shall we go to the study to talk?"
Gu Yin nodded upon hearing this: "Okay, come with me."
Seeing the three men heading towards the study, the old man grew anxious: "They seem to have ill intentions. Should we call our two sons back?"
The old lady shook her head: "It's right here in our house, what could possibly happen? Besides, there are bodyguards arranged by Lao Zhou all over the house, so there's nothing to worry about! Forget it, I'll just go for a stroll over there. I'm just an old woman, they shouldn't mind."
The old man nodded upon hearing this: "Then go ahead, but don't get too close."
On the other side, Gu Yin pushed open the door to the study and went inside.
There are no taboos in the Gu family's study; it's mainly used for discussing business.
"Tea or water?" Gu Yin asked, looking at the two of them.
The older man shook his head: "I've already drunk a lot, I don't need to anymore. You don't need to do anything, just sit down."
Gu Yin sat down: "Is there something you need from me?" She didn't want to argue back and forth with the other person, so it was better to just lay it all out.
The older man glanced at the younger man, who got up, walked around the room, and then shook his head.
The elder then spoke up: "I am Lan Yan's superior. I sent him out on this mission. I thought he would return safely as usual, but... We are here to ask you if Lan Yan has given you any instructions or anything. This is very important to us and even the country!"
Gu Yin looked puzzled: "I don't know if he said anything in such a tense situation, but he definitely didn't give me anything."
The older man wasn't angry; instead, he said seriously, "We've checked with our superiors. Lan Yan was with you at the last moment before jumping from the plane. So think carefully, is there something he gave you that you've forgotten?"
Gu Yin frowned and thought for a moment, but finally shook her head.
The young man next to him immediately stood up and said fiercely, "We're not joking with you! This is very important to us! If you don't hand it over, and something goes wrong, you can't afford the consequences! Neither can we!"
"Cheng An! Calm down!"
Upon hearing this, the man took a deep breath, sat down, and continued to stare at Gu Yin.
The older man said apologetically, "This is a very important matter. Cheng An was a bit too anxious. He wasn't targeting you. I hope he didn't scare you."
Gu Yin glanced at the man and shook her head at the older man: "I understand, but since you know that Instructor Lan was with me at the last moment, you must also know that I have already said everything I know and need to say. You should be able to see the interrogation files from before. I have made myself clear enough! I didn't receive anything. I only said that if I came back, I would recognize her as my sister. There really is nothing else. No matter how much you pressure me, it's useless. There's nothing, and that's it. Do you think I can make it up? If that's what you want, then I can give you a satisfactory answer!"
"Don't refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a penalty shot! You'd better confess honestly!!" The man named Cheng An stood up again.
Gu Yin: "...Excuse me for speaking frankly, are you playing the good cop and the bad cop?"
The two: "..."
Gu Yin waved her hand helplessly: "Otherwise, tell me what you want, and I'll find it for you. If that doesn't work, I'll make it for you! I'm a little scared by you coming to my house and yelling at me like this. I just came from the office of Leader Number 3. Otherwise, I'll ask him to help you find it?"
The older man's lips twitched, and he stood up: "Since you've said that, we won't bother you any longer. You can contact us directly when you've thought it through. Cheng An, let's go."
After saying that, the two left the Gu family home.
The two got into the car, and the older man sighed, "I don't know if what this girl said is true or false. Lan Yan must have taken the thing out. According to organizational discipline and his character, that thing is definitely not on him. He must have hidden it somewhere or given it to someone. There were only so many people on the plane at the time. If you arrange for some more people to follow the other members of the Gu family, we'll be in trouble if someone else gets that thing."
Wang Chengan frowned: "Sir, shall I come back and ask again tomorrow?"
The middle-aged man shook his head: "Wait, let's have someone follow her and keep an eye on her every move. We don't know if Lan Yan is alive or dead yet. This has only just happened, we can't alert her. Let's wait for more specific information before we talk about it. We came here today in a hurry."
Wang Chengan nodded, and the two fell silent.
In the study, Gu Yin opened her arms, revealing a small object about the size of a 50-cent coin. Since returning from the neighboring country, two groups of people had come looking for her. Although she didn't know which was good and which was bad, this thing would never see the light of day until news came from Lan Yan's side.
There was a knock at the door. Gu Yin put her hand away and got up to open the door.
The old lady looked Gu Yin over and, seeing that she was alright, smiled and said, "Dinner is ready, come out and eat."
