Li Lin wants to see Jiang Yan.
She made this request, saying that she would only explain her problem to Jiang Yan after meeting her.
Jiang Yan had expected this moment to come, so she happily followed the others to meet Li Lin who had been detained.
Li Lin sat in the interrogation room, her hands and feet cuffed with iron chains. She was now a key care target and was under severe punishment, so she had to be careful.
Jiang Yan stood outside the door, looking at Li Lin through the small window. Li Lin, who had originally closed his eyes to rest, seemed to sense something, and immediately opened his eyes and looked towards the door.
The two of them seemed to have telepathic connection and stared at each other for a moment through the heavy iron door.
"Only ten minutes."
"good."
The comrade in charge of guarding opened the door, Jiang Yan walked in and sat down opposite Li Lin.
The iron door closed with a bang.
It's only been two days since I last saw her, but Li Lin has looked much more haggard. The bright girl has visibly become more aged. It's as if all the cheerfulness in her body has been drained away, and she looks more than ten years older.
Perhaps the Li Lin in front of us is the real her. The Li Lin who is open and happy in the sun is just an illusion.
"How do you know it was me?"
Jiang Yan shook her head with a little regret, "I didn't know it was you. You are very smart and your acting skills are outstanding. You are indeed a rare and powerful person. You almost fooled me."
Li Lin's eyes were bloodshot and dark clouds were gathered under her eyes. She looked a little scary and it was obvious that she had not gotten enough rest.
"What flaw did I reveal?"
People like Li Lin may not be afraid of death, and death may be a relief for her.
She was more afraid of failure than death! And she was even more annoyed by the failures she couldn't figure out.
"Not you."
Li Lin didn't understand, but she was a smart person and she realized after a little thought that she was implicated by Peng Shiju.
"What's wrong with him?" Although Li Lin knew that the problem was with Peng Shiju, he couldn't figure out why.
You have to know that Peng Shiju and she have never had any contact in public. Even if they had contact in private, Li Lin dared to guarantee that they had never been caught by others. Why would Jiang Yan extend the suspicion on Peng Shiju to herself?
She won't be able to rest in peace until she gets to the bottom of it.
"What went wrong?"
Jiang Yan only said two words, "Taste."
"What?"
Li Lin didn't understand, "What's that smell?"
"You smell like cedar and iris."
Li Lin's pupils suddenly shrank. "You actually knew that? That was the perfume I used when I was abroad. I never used it again after returning to China. How did you know that?"
"I guess you must like this smell very much. You have been using the same perfume for many years, so you are also stained with this fragrance. It is very faint, and most people may not be able to smell it, but my sense of smell is naturally different from that of ordinary people..."
She didn't continue speaking, but just raised her eyebrows, as if to say, it's that simple.
This reason confused Li Lin. "Impossible. I haven't used perfume for a long time. Besides, how could Peng Shiju have the smell of my perfume on him? You don't think there's something going on between me and him, do you?"
Could she fall for that idiot?
"A scarf."
Li Lin was even more confused. He shook his head, and a rare look of panic appeared in his eyes.
"Do you remember the silk scarf you wore that day? The blue one, with the strongest fragrance. Think about it yourself, Peng Shiju, have you touched that silk scarf?"
Li Lin suddenly remembered that night when they were discussing countermeasures in the dark, she was wearing this silk scarf, and a strong gust of wind blew her silk scarf away and hung on the treetop.
The scarf could not be left at the scene, so Peng Shiju climbed up the tree to help her take it down, that was all...
Li Lin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Man proposes, God disposes..." Who could have thought that she would be defeated by a silk scarf.
"It is better to say that good cannot prevail over evil."
Jiang Yan stood up and walked out of the interrogation room without even looking at Li Lin.
What happened afterwards had nothing to do with Jiang Yan.
However, Jiang Yan's return to the design institute was not smooth.
The research institute did not want to let Jiang Yan go and wanted him to do the follow-up research work and rebuild the research team.
Can Jiang Yan take care of their mess?
"My files and connections are not here. If you want to keep me, you have to keep me." Jiang Yan almost laughed to the ground. "What can you use to keep me? Favors? The dean must have forgotten that I was kicked out by them in the first place, right?"
Secretary Wu pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose, feeling a little embarrassed. How should he respond?
"Okay, I won't embarrass you, and you don't embarrass me either, I have to go back!"
When she came to the research institute, she didn't bring much with her, so when she left, she just waved her sleeves lightly, thinking that she had successfully completed her mission.
On the other hand, the people from the National Security Bureau were also very satisfied. They caught the traitor without bloodshed. Not only did they not lose a single soldier, but they also stabilized the relationship between the domestic and overseas academic circles. It was an explanation to both the inside and the outside world.
The leaders of the National Security Bureau have their eyes on Jiang Yan and even talked to Si Lu. The implication is that Jiang Yan is a rare talent and should come to work at the National Security Bureau to eliminate harm for the people and defend the country.
Before Si Lu could say anything, Song Qingzhou was already unhappy. "My niece is a scientific research talent. What she has researched is a national treasure. That is truly beneficial to the country and the people. You want her to fight on the front line? Don't say I disagree. Her master Xu Tianlai can chase you home with a mortar. Do you believe it?"
"Oh, I believe it, I believe it. I just said it casually. Director Song, why are you so angry? Don't take it seriously."
Naturally, the matter came to nothing.
Si Lu went back and told it to Jiang Yan as a joke.
Jiang Yan recalled that when he went to the countryside, he had actually had contact with Guoan. At that time, their director was still Liang Xun! That old Qi, relying on his seniority, said a lot of unpleasant things.
But fortunately, I am not a pushover. I made him so angry that he almost died and even arrested their chief.
Unexpectedly, after many twists and turns, Si Lu now goes to Guoan. It’s fate, I guess!
"I want to go to the frontline now, but my teacher won't agree. Besides, will my parents agree?"
"My uncle disagreed and directly refuted it. He said that Mr. Xu would carry a mortar to his house to settle the score."
Jiang Yan couldn't help laughing when she thought of that scene. "You know what, the teacher can really do such a thing. Although he is not young, he is in good health and has never lost an argument with others."
Old child, old child, I'm talking about Xu Tianlai!
Academically, he is second to none, but when he gets angry, he doesn't care about his status at all. Venting out his anger is the most important thing.
