Chapter 787 Archaeological Base
When Officer Ted sent the two men to the door of the Cultural Relics Research Center, two guards stopped them.
Officer Ted tried to explain Nie Yao and Li Jinxing's identities to the guard, but the guard emphasized in a cold tone: "Sorry, we won't let anyone in without a work badge!"
"I'm Nie Yao, he's Li Jinxing. I just spoke to Professor Fred on the phone, and he agreed to let us in..." Nie Yao patiently explained to the guard who stopped them.
The two guards knew Professor Fred's name. After hearing what Nie Yao said, and also because they were protected by officers, they looked at each other and said hesitantly, "How about this? You guys wait, I'll go in and make the announcement!"
Nie Yao smiled and nodded. Li Jinxing sighed softly and said jokingly, "It's so strict. It seems that the security measures have indeed been strengthened!"
"It's a good thing we're keeping it under strict control now, to prevent those criminals from making up any excuse to break in!" Nie Yao was afraid that Li Jinxing would get impatient, so she smiled and comforted him, "Li Jinxing, why don't you go back first? I'll go in later and study with my adoptive father. I'm afraid it will take very late..."
Li Jinxing shook his head and smiled faintly, then replied nonchalantly, "Yaoyao, I came here just to accompany you. Besides, I contributed to this cultural relic, so I should be qualified to go in and see how these archaeologists uncovered the secrets of this cultural relic!"
Nie Yao nodded happily. As long as Li Jinxing spoke, no one had the right to stop him, because that was the heirloom he donated!
The two waited at the door for a while before the guard who had gone in hurried out, leading an archaeologist out with him.
The relatively young archaeologist smiled politely at Nie Yao and Li Jinxing's attitude and said gently, "Professor Fred is waiting for you at the archaeological base in the laboratory. Please follow me!"
Li Jinxing and Nie Yao nodded slightly, followed the archaeological specialist into the Archaeological Research Center, walked through a long corridor, took the elevator, and arrived directly at the laboratory archaeological base.
Professor Fred was studying a map intently when the young archaeologist walked in and whispered, "Professor Fred, they're here!"
Professor Fred responded softly without turning around. Seeing this, Nie Yao and Li Jinxing simply walked in and came to Professor Fred's side.
"Dad, what are you looking at?" Nie Yao asked curiously when he saw his adoptive father concentrating on studying the map in front of him.
Professor Fred put down his magnifying glass, pointed at the map in front of him, and said to Nie Yao with a faint smile: "Ivy, since you are here, why not take a look together..."
Nie Yao was stunned for a moment, and looked in the direction of her adoptive father's finger. She saw that the map in front of her looked very familiar. It was actually a rubbing of the map found in the cultural relic that was Li Jinxing's heirloom, but it was magnified ten times and stood upright.
"Dad, isn't this the map in that cultural relic?" Nie Yao asked in surprise.
Professor Fred nodded slightly, turned his head to look at Nie Yao, and said with a smile: "Yes, it is that map. However, I made a new one based on the original, and then enlarged it while maintaining the original clarity. This way it will be very convenient for study!"
Nie Yao looked carefully and found that this map looked clearer than the previous one drawn on papyrus, and it was pieced together into a whole!
