Chapter 397: Detained Scientists
397
After a long while without a response, Kong Xiangwei's face gradually turned dejected. Then he chuckled self-deprecatingly. It seemed like all this was just his imagination. There was no such thing as a little girl. He was completely insane.
Kong Xiangwei closed his eyes in pain. Tang Yue saw it from his expression, "I'm still here. Do you want to go back to China?"
Kong Xiangwei's heart was rekindled. He was sure he had heard correctly. There must be someone standing next to him. No, it was a god. Moreover, it was from China. Although China no longer practices feudal superstition, it does not mean that gods no longer exist.
Kong Xiangwei suppressed his excitement and said, "I do. I dream about it. But they've detained my family. I don't have a chance to escape."
Tang Yue's eyes were cold. "Is there anyone else in the same situation as you?"
The light in Kong Xiangwei's eyes grew brighter and brighter. "Yes, there are many. I know of more than 20."
"Are they all here?"
Kong Xiangwei wanted to shake his head, but he was afraid others would notice his anomaly. "No, this experimental base is just one of them. There are seven here, and the others are in various industries. But the difficulties we face are similar."
Tang Yue frowned. She didn't know those people. She couldn't speak the language or read the characters here, so it would be really troublesome to find them.
Kong Xiangwei didn't hear Tang Yue talking, so he lowered his voice and asked, "Um, are you still there?" He didn't know how to address Tang Yue.
"Hmm. How can I contact those people?"
Kong Xiangwei became even more excited when he heard this, his breathing becoming heavier. "There's going to be a large academic exchange meeting in Moscow in five days. Experts from various industries will be there to learn. They should all be there."
Tang Yue didn't expect there would be such an opportunity. "Are you going too?"
“Yes, we have many experts here as well.”
Tang Yue thought for a moment, "Are you sure those people want to go back to China with you?"
Kong Xiangwei nodded, then looked dejected. "But the chances of returning are very slim. The Russians have promised me more than once that I can return home after completing that project. However, after the project is over, they always find other reasons to prevent us from returning."
"The most infuriating thing is that our wives and children are under their control, and we have no way to resist."
Tang Yue sneered. As expected, Big Brother was still very powerful. How different were their expressions from those in the US? She remembered that Chang Yin had gone out some time ago to rescue a group of scientists who wanted to return home. It seemed like they faced numerous difficulties.
Tang Yue lowered her eyes and thought for a moment. "If you can get in touch with those people, you can ask them about their willingness to return home. If they really want to go back, you can sort out their specific information. I will come to take you away in half a month."
Kong Xiangwei had never felt his breathing so fast before, but this was too unreal. Could it really happen?
"How can I trust you?"
Tang Yue smiled, "Don't be wary of me, just do as I say."
Kong Xiangwei had calmed down by now. He said in a serious tone, "No, how do I know you weren't sent by the Russians to test us? I don't believe you."
Huh! She's quite alert. But now wasn't the right time for her to show up, so she could only explain her purpose. "I'm in a hurry. The Russians sent many spies to excavate ancient tombs in China, and then transported the artifacts inside to the Russians separately."
"I came here with those who stole the cultural relics. Now I have to follow them to find the source of the final handover of these cultural relics. So I don't have time to take you away now. But if you believe me, I will come to pick you up in half a month. If you don't believe me, forget it."
Tang Yue believed that as long as she brought back everything here, the scientists in China would be able to build a satellite after a few years of research.
Kong Xiangwei felt that he could no longer accept the behavior of the Russians. How could this be like Big Brother? What was the difference between this and a robber?
"I'm leaving now. Remember, if you believe me, I'll see you in half a month."
Tang Yue was about to leave when Kong Xiangwei immediately stopped her in a low voice, "Wait, the satellite will be completed in 20 days, and then it will be transported to the satellite launch base. Can you really come back by then?"
Tang Yue smiled. She hadn't expected to be able to return with a complete product. This was truly a pleasant surprise. Tang Yue didn't even want to think anymore. She just wanted to take all these things back. She believed that the Chinese would be able to make good use of them and learn from them.
Don't they like to suppress China? If you have the ability, why are you afraid of their suppression?
"Yeah, sure. I'll keep that in mind."
After saying that, Tang Yue left quickly. There was nothing she could do. Russian cars were quite fast, and Tang Yue suffered from the language barrier, so the distance was too far for her to handle.
Kong Xiangwei suppressed his excitement. Could he really return to China? Even if there was only a tiny bit of hope, he wanted to go back. Thinking of this, the 30-something man's eyes heated up, and scalding liquid filled them.
He immediately wiped away his tears while cleaning his glasses and returned to his work. However, the corners of his lips curled up.
He needs to work harder, and also learn more about other areas besides his own. He must contribute more to the strength of China.
General Igorevich closed his eyes and rested. The feeling of being watched had finally disappeared. He carefully felt for a long time, and when the feeling disappeared, he finally felt relieved. He looked outside the car again and found nothing unusual. He prepared to close his eyes and take a nap.
Tang Yue returned to the car. She was thinking about how to bring those people back to China. She had no intention of teasing the general in front of her, so he naturally didn't notice Tang Yue's existence at all.
In a flash, daybreak arrived. General Igorevich was completely unaware of the theft.
Around nine o'clock in the morning, Tang Yue saw a city appear in front of them, but the team had no intention of going in. Instead, they left directly from the highway outside.
Tang Yue wasn't happy about this. She wouldn't miss any opportunity to make money. The city was quite large, and she'd already harvested everything she could from the farms along the way. She definitely had to explore such a large city.
Tang Yue rolled her eyes and moved her hands a few times. Several cars in the vicinity suddenly stalled at the same time. The cars stopped at once, and General Igorevich immediately grasped his gun and looked around vigilantly.
The soldiers in other vehicles responsible for escorting the goods also raised their guns. Several people jumped out of several vehicles and began to check the ground. Tang Yue had already flown away.
The cities in Russia are very different from those in Japan.
The streets of this city are thick with the atmosphere of socialist construction. Tall, imposing Soviet-style buildings rise from the ground, their sharp angles radiating power and majesty, as if proclaiming the nation's reverence for heavy industry and collective strength.
In the factory district, massive chimneys stand tall, billowing thick smoke and the hum of machinery. In the streets and alleys, people hurried, their eyes revealing a firm belief in national development. They wear uniform, simple, and durable clothing as they rush to their respective jobs.
Unlike Russian cities, Japanese cities focus more on commercial prosperity and the absorption and integration of Western culture. Amidst the fast-paced economic development, they also carefully guard their local cultural traditions, just like a delicate and diverse Ukiyo-e.
Tang Yue sighed inwardly. If she had time, she would definitely take her family out for a walk. This world is truly wonderful. And there are so many things to see. Tang Yue didn't care whether it was daytime or not; she was pressed for time and had a heavy workload.
At a building materials processing factory on the edge of the city, a worker was putting raw materials into a machine for rolling. As he poured the raw materials into the machine and turned around to move another bag, he found that the pile of raw materials behind him had disappeared.
The bearded face suddenly lost control of its expression.
What happened? He spread his hands and prepared to explain the situation to his colleagues, but he turned around.
