Chip production is proceeding at a speed that no one can imagine.
Dai Li was personally responsible for the entire production process and links.
At first, they would marvel at the daily progress.
Later on, everyone got used to it and was finally able to face all surprises calmly.
Because Dai Li seems to be really omnipotent.
As long as she is there, there will be no technical difficulties in the production process, and no problems that she cannot solve.
Recently, the most discussed topic among internal employees is how she did it.
"Chip manufacturing is obviously extremely difficult, so why does it suddenly become so simple in her hands?"
“I don’t know how she does it, but she can make things that everyone thinks are impossible become reality.”
"She does seem to always work miracles."
"Thanks to the miracle she brought, we will soon have our own chip!"
"People outside of here definitely don't know yet, but our newly established electronics equipment company is about to do something big."
"That's right, we will definitely shock the whole world!"
Everyone in this unassuming technology and electronic equipment company is working with great enthusiasm, looking forward to the birth of its first chip.
During the busy period of chip production, Dai Li took time to visit Mr. Zou.
Qiu Yongsi invited her repeatedly and called her several times.
Having made the old man wait for so long, Dai Li couldn't delay any longer, so she chose a less busy day and took a taxi to Mr. Zou's home according to the address given by Qiu Yongsi.
Mr. Zou lives in an allocated protected old community. The surrounding houses are very historical and the green environment is also very good. There are centuries-old trees everywhere. The only drawback is that the road conditions are not very good. There is only one narrow one-way street.
The last road was even narrower, and was completely blocked by a black SUV in front. Because the road was too narrow, the SUV was too big, and there were walls and old trees on both sides, the black SUV could only move forward cautiously and slowly.
The taxi driver rolled down the window, rested his elbow on it, and grumbled, "What kind of car is that guy in front of me driving? He's driving an SUV and he dares to squeeze into this narrow lane. He'll be exhausted if he walks a few more steps. Isn't he afraid of scratching the paint?"
The taxi driver wanted to take on another business and didn't want to keep moving slowly behind the SUV, so he discussed it with Dai Li through the rearview mirror.
"This road is too narrow. It's hard to pass the car ahead. Can you get off here?"
Dai Li looked at the map and saw that there was still a little more than a kilometer to go. She did not make things difficult for the driver. She took the gift, paid the fare and got off the car.
But the black car in front still occupied the narrow one-way street, making it difficult for even people to pass.
She gave up the idea of overtaking the SUV. It was only a little over a kilometer anyway and it wouldn't take long.
So she followed the black car at a leisurely pace. When the car was moving fast, she walked faster. When the car was moving slowly, she slowed down.
After following the SUV for about two or three minutes, the car in front stopped without any warning, and a burly man got out of the driver's seat.
The man had a shaved head and was very strong. He was nearly two meters tall and looked like a mountain when he stood up. It was obvious that he was not someone to be trifled with.
He walked up to Dai Li, nodded slightly, and then said expressionlessly, "Miss, please go ahead."
Dai Li thought he had come down to make way for her, so she waved her hand awkwardly and said, "It's okay, you can't block my way, I'll just go behind you."
The big guy kept repeating the same words: "Miss, please go ahead."
He stood in front of Dai Li without moving, as if he would not move until she left.
Dai Li didn't want to continue the stalemate with him. If he wanted her to go ahead, then she would go ahead.
Dai Li walked around him and took two steps, then she found that the big man had been following her closely and was always observing her vigilantly, his eyes focused on the gift bag in her hand.
Especially when she passed by the back seat of the SUV, the big man directly blocked the door.
Dai Li understood that this big man should be the bodyguard of the person in the car.
I felt that she was a potential danger as she had been following closely behind the car, so I got out and let her walk in front.
Dai Li was too lazy to explain anything, and she didn't want the big guy to misunderstand her and cause some unpleasant misunderstandings.
She walked quickly past the SUV without looking around.
The big guy saw her walk out of the safe range before he went back to the driving seat and started the car again.
There is only one main road here. Dai Li walks in front and the SUV can only follow behind her.
There was a car following slowly behind her, which she was also not used to, and she didn't want to have anything to do with the people in the car.
She checked the map as she walked and found a small path nearby that could also lead to Zou's hometown, but it was a little farther away.
She didn't even hesitate and decisively took the small road.
Without the SUV blocking the road, Dai Li drove much faster, and the long distance was not a problem at all.
But what she didn't expect was that when she took the small path around to Mr. Zou's door, she ran into the black SUV again.
The big guy parked the car and was about to open the back door to pick someone up when he was caught off guard and his eyes met Dai Li's.
The big guy closed the car door at lightning speed and stuffed the person who was about to get out of the car back in.
He bowed outside the car door and said to the person inside: "Mr. Bai, please wait a moment."
The people in the car asked in surprise: "What happened? Is there an accident?"
The big guy glanced at Dai Li vaguely and replied to the people in the car: "The strange woman we just met has appeared again. Just in case, you should stay in the car for the time being."
The person in the car said helplessly, "Xu Qiang, you're really too nervous. He's just an ordinary passerby."
The big guy had his own reasons. "I remember the license plate of the taxi she just took. She had been following us since the start of Glacier Road, for nearly twenty kilometers. She had no choice but to get off because the road was narrow. After she got off, she also followed us. When she realized I'd spotted her, she immediately changed her route. But now we've met again, which means she most likely knows our route and deliberately set up a chance encounter. Also, the gift bag she was carrying is suspicious."
Dai Li:......
She couldn't say how good this big guy's security skills were, but his paranoia was top-notch.
Dai Li: "Then have you ever thought that I am here because my destination is here. We have the same destination, so we have been on the same road since the beginning of the Glacier Road. And I am carrying a gift bag because I am going to visit someone's home."
Big guy: "How can it be such a coincidence?"
"Xu Qiang," the man in the car called out to the big guy, "Relax, it's not that dangerous in China."
"No, that won't do. My mission is to protect you. I must absolutely ensure your safety is not threatened in any way and prevent the terrorist incident that happened in Country Y from happening again."
"You also said that it's Country Y. Can the security situation be compared with that in China?"
"We can't be careless. Who knows if they've been bribed by people from abroad?"
"So, what you mean? I can't go anywhere? I shouldn't even go out today. I'll just stay at the base every day, but I can't do anything. I'll be like a useless person."
The big guy suddenly became anxious and raised his voice: "Who dares to say that you are a useless person, Mr. Bai? I will beat him to death right now."
Bai Xiunian smiled gently and said, "Aren't you treating me like a useless person now? When you were providing security for others, were you as nervous about them as you were about me?"
The big guy's face flushed with anxiety, and he quickly explained: "Mr. Bai, you misunderstood me. I was nervous because I knew there were more people who wanted to kill you."
Bai Xiu Nian laughed and said, "Even though I'm like this, do you still think I'm a threat? Will they still want to kill me?"
The big guy frowned: "Mr. Bai..."
"I know you are responsible for your work and are seriously considering my safety, but you can't treat everyone who approaches me as a bad person. This will affect my travel and the lives of others." Bai Xiunian spoke slowly and steadily.
"Okay, open the door for me."
The big guy was finally persuaded and helped him open the car door.
Then Dai Li saw a tall man get out of the back seat of the SUV. He was at least 180cm tall and dressed very casually, with a turtleneck sweater and a down jacket. Although his clothes were ordinary, it was difficult to conceal his dignified demeanor.
After getting out of the car, he stood by without moving. After hearing the sound of the big guy closing the car door, he habitually raised his left hand. The big guy turned around and tacitly held his hand.
This action is not necessary for ordinary people.
Seeing the sunglasses on the man's face, Dai Li had already guessed that the man was probably blind.
The man was blind, so his speed couldn't compare to that of a normal person, but he didn't look embarrassed or panicked at all. Every step he took was firm and steady.
If you look closely, you can see that his right foot is a little lame, but since he can't see, he can only walk slowly, so the lameness is not very obvious.
Dai Li was heading in the same direction as them. The big guy hesitated and looked at Dai Li with a troubled look.
If Bai Xiunian hadn't taught him a lesson just now, he would have definitely let Dai Li go first.
"I'd better go ahead." Dai Li said tactfully.
She didn't want to be considered a dangerous person by the big guy again, so she walked in front so that the big guy could feel at ease.
When Bai Xiunian heard her voice, he turned his head in her direction, nodded at her, and said to her in a gentle voice, "I'm sorry to trouble you."
The man had a very good face, with delicate and three-dimensional features and sharp angles. Although only the lower half of his face could be seen, it was still obvious that the man was good-looking.
Facing a face like that and his gentle tone, it is hard to get angry even if there is a misunderstanding.
Dai Li: "It's all a misunderstanding. I don't take it to heart. I'll go ahead."
"Please." He smiled and gestured for invitation.
Dai Li was walking in front, and when she heard the big guy behind her take the first step, she couldn't help but complain to the man.
"Mr. Bai, as a teacher, shouldn't you move to a new place? The houses here are expensive, but other than that, there's nothing else to offer. It's hard to get in, and even if you get in, it's hard to park. There's no elevator, so we have to climb up step by step. How inconvenient!"
"You're fine, you don't come here every day. When your teacher gets older and needs a wheelchair, that would be inconvenient."
Bai Xiunian: "Old people are used to living here, so it's not easy for them to move. Not to mention teachers, even I don't want to move. If I move, I won't be able to tell the direction anymore."
Xu Qiang: "Is your situation the same? Are you..."
Dai Li could not hear the rest of the words. She walked faster and had already climbed to the third floor and knocked on the door of Zou's house.
When Zou Yi opened the door and saw a beautiful girl, he immediately guessed that it was Dai Li and welcomed her into the house warmly: "Are you here already? I said I'd come down to pick you up."
"Don't bother, it's easy to find here." Dai Li handed her the gift bag.
Zou Yi frowned. "You've helped us so much, we should thank you. Why are you still spending money on something? No, no, we can't accept this. You can take it back when the time comes."
"Teacher Zou, I've already brought it here. Do you still want me to take it back? How about I eat two more bowls of rice later and taste Teacher Zou's cooking?"
"Okay, okay, have two more bowls and make sure you try them. I can't say anything else, but my cooking skills are definitely good." Zou Yi finally stopped refusing and led her to the sofa with a smile.
"My dad doesn't know you're here yet. He's playing chess with someone next door. Please sit down for a while. I'll go call him."
Not long after Zou Yi closed the door and went out, someone knocked on the door.
Dai Li stared at the door for a moment, a little surprised why Zou Yi and Zou Lao knocked on the door when they returned to their home.
At first she didn't move, until the door was knocked twice more, she got up and opened it.
When the door opened, she saw two familiar faces again.
The man with eye problems and the big guy I met downstairs.
The big guy was even more stunned than her, scratching his head in confusion.
"Mr. Bai, has your teacher moved?"
The man couldn't see and didn't know the situation, so he could only look confused.
"Moving? What's going on?"
The big guy didn't seem very smart and hadn't reacted yet.
Dai Li had already made way: "Come in, the person you are looking for should be the same as me."
When he heard her voice, the man's face was filled with surprise, but he understood the next second.
Bai Xiunian smiled in relief: "So it's such a coincidence?"
After the big guy entered the room, he took two steps before he realized what was going on. He asked Dai Li in surprise, "Are you here to see Academician Zou too?"
Dai Li deliberately asked with a cold face: "It's not that he sneaked in to harm you, right?"
When the big guy heard this, he instantly tensed his muscles and looked at her warily.
This is not impossible!
Bai Xiu laughed out loud: "Xu Qiang, she is joking with you."
Dai Li looked at him leisurely with her hands folded, with an expression on her face that seemed to be about to smile but not smile.
After learning that he was being teased, the big guy looked very embarrassed and said with his neck stiff, "That's not funny at all, Miss. Please don't make such jokes again in the future."
Dai Li said indifferently: "Don't worry, there will be no chance in the future. We will never see each other again."
The big guy was very upset about being teased, but he couldn't think of any more powerful words to refute.
His eyes widened, and after a long pause he finally managed to utter, "Well, well, then this is the best."
When Bai Xiunian heard the sound of his frustration, he actually found it very funny and couldn't help laughing, but he was introverted and not used to laughing out loud, so he could only cover his mouth to hold back his laughter, but his shoulders were still shaking uncontrollably.
Dai Li: "Sir, if you have a low sense of humor, you can just laugh out loud."
The big guy was confused: "Mr. Bai, what are you laughing at?"
He had been following Bai Xiunian for quite some time. In his impression, Bai Xiunian was a serious and polite person, but he had never seen him like this.
Dai Li: "I'm just laughing at you."
Big guy: "Stop talking nonsense, there's nothing funny about me."
Dai Li said casually: "Because you talk in an interesting way."
Seeing her serious expression, the big guy asked Bai Xiunian seriously, "Really, Mr. Bai, am I really that funny?"
As a result, the question he asked made Bai Xiunian laugh even more uncontrollably, and he suddenly laughed out loud.
When Mr. Zou and Zou Yi returned home, the first thing they saw when they opened the door was the strange scene of Bai Xiunian laughing.
The Zou family father and daughter looked at each other strangely.
Dai Li saw Mr. Zou out of the corner of her eye and stood up to greet him.
At this time, Bai Xiunian also knew that Mr. Zou had returned, and his laughter stopped immediately. He almost choked because he didn't stop in time.
His ears and face were flushed red, which was very noticeable against his fair skin.
He cleared his throat, stood up and called out "Teacher".
Zou Lao laughed and scolded, "Laugh whenever you want. You always like to act so pretentious. How old are you? You're even more pretentious than an old man like me."
Bai Xiunian was already extremely embarrassed, but he still followed what Zou said and said, "Teacher is right."
Mr. Zou shook his head helplessly and gave up trying to change him.
"Please sit down, don't stand."
Mr. Zou has been in good spirits recently, and his voice is deeper than before.
After he finished greeting everyone one by one, he remembered that he had not yet introduced them to each other.
"His name is Bai Xiunian. I taught him when he was in the Junior Class at Qingyuan University. Later, he went abroad to study, so I regretfully couldn't continue with him. But I'll always remember him as the most thoughtful student I've ever taught, and the one I admire most, bar none."
"Xiunian, the lady sitting opposite you is Dai Li. She was the one who gave me the painkiller I mentioned to you before."
Bai Xiunian looked towards Dai Li unexpectedly: "So it's you?"
"It's Miss Xiao Dai. I've been able to eat and sleep well recently, all thanks to her."
Bai Xiunian no longer cared about being reserved and excitedly asked her a series of questions: "I have a lot of questions. I wonder if I could ask you how your painkiller was designed, what is its internal structure, and how it works?"
After hearing about the miraculous effects of the painkiller, he became curious about it. If he could see it, he would definitely study it himself.
"Actually, the principle is not complicated. It mainly paralyzes the human nervous system, thereby making it impossible to perceive pain..."
Dai Li was different from other people. She would not hide her shortcomings. As long as someone asked her for advice sincerely, she would not hesitate to explain it to them.
Bai Xiunian and Mr. Zou listened very carefully, sometimes frowning, sometimes suddenly realizing, sometimes thinking about something, and sometimes nodding slowly.
It seems like a very harmonious picture.
However, Xu Qiang's continuous yawning next to him was a bit of a spoiler.
Bai Xiunian was still a little unsatisfied after hearing this: "I've learned a lot today, but it's a pity that I can't see what the painkiller looks like in person and study the exquisite design inside it."
As soon as he said this, Mr. Zou, who had just been excited, suddenly changed his expression and became serious.
Dai Li noticed the strangeness on their faces and her eyes fell on Bai Xiunian's sunglasses.
"I wonder if it would be convenient for me to ask what's wrong with Mr. Bai's eyes?"
Bai Xiunian smiled in relief and said, "It was an accident."
"What accident? It was a planned terrorist attack." Mr. Zou shouted angrily.
After Zou Lao's explanation, Dai Li finally knew the inside details.
Bai Xiunian has been a well-known child prodigy since he was young. When he was less than 15 years old, he attended the junior class. Because the domestic academic environment was not suitable for his research direction, in order to do better research, he went abroad to study.
While studying abroad, he not only completed his studies with excellent results, but also taught himself several subjects, researching aviation propulsion, fighter design and manufacturing, as well as rocket and missile technologies.
All the teachers who taught him knew that he was a rare talent. He could design new stealth fighters and bombers. The relevant units and schools in the country gave him very good feedback, hoping to keep him and even promised to let him serve as chief designer.
But after completing his studies, he only wanted to return to his home country and never showed any desire to stay there. He declined all offers from units and schools.
But if he wants to leave, that's his business. Whether he can leave or not depends on the country's attitude.
It’s a pity that Bai Xiunian didn’t make it and was detained at the airport.
They brought him to court on all sorts of trumped-up charges and evidence.
In court, he refused to plead guilty to the false charges and refuted the opposing prosecutor with reason and evidence. His brilliant debate left the opposing prosecutor speechless and very embarrassed in court.
This lawsuit dragged on for several years. Every time it seemed like victory was imminent, the prosecutors would always find more outrageous "evidence."
He stayed in the country for five years. Later, after diplomatic negotiations, he was allowed to return home alone without taking a single piece of paper with him.
Bai Xiunian was 27 years old when he returned to China. He was still young and had plenty of time to show his talents.
However, he only spent one year designing in China. When he was 28 years old, he went to Country Y to attend an exchange forum. On his way back to the airport, a car running parallel to him in the next lane was bombed.
He survived, but both of his eyeballs were pierced by blast fragments and his leg was shattered.
The investigation report of Country Y said that it was a personal grudge and an individual behavior, and Bai Xiunian was just an innocent person affected. However, we do not agree with this investigation result and are now organizing a special person to investigate the truth.
"Xiao Dai, tell me, isn't this a terrorist attack? You don't know how their spokesperson responded at the time. He smiled and said wishing Xiunian good luck. Good luck? Not dying is good luck, right? I think this matter was planned by them from the beginning to the end!" Every time Mr. Zou talked about what happened back then, he was so angry that he couldn't control his emotions.
"Teacher Zou, medicine." Bai Xiunian quickly asked Zou Yi to get antihypertensive medicine for Mr. Zou.
Dai Li was unable to comment on this. The investigation result was just a result and would not have any impact on them.
The only ones affected were Bai Xiunian and those who were affected by the bomb that year.
Dai Li: "What's the condition of your eyes now?"
"Because my eyeballs were blown apart, they have shrunk now." Bai Xiunian wanted to take off his sunglasses to show her, but he was afraid that his shrunk eyeballs would scare her, so he put his hand down halfway.
Dai Li noticed his actions and felt a little uncomfortable.
"Except for the eyeball, the other eye nerves are still fine, right?"
Bai Xiunian smiled bitterly: "But no matter how good your other nerves are, they are useless now."
Dai Li nodded thoughtfully: "Then do you want to try bionic eyes?"
Bai Xiunian: "Prosthetic eye? But I heard it looks a bit fake, and it might be even scarier if I put it on."
Dai Li: "No, I'm talking about a bionic eyeball that can connect to your eye nerves."
"Can it connect to the eye nerves?" Bai Xiunian tilted his head slightly, frowning slightly. "What do you mean?"
After taking the medicine, Mr. Zou also looked over curiously.
Dai Li smiled slightly and said, "It can help you see the light again."
