Chapter 320 Powerful, Ying Zijing's Connections [3rd Update]
But no one paid attention to Ying Zijing; they were all too busy dealing with Professor Herwin and the L-type spray.
Pei Tianyi had already dialed a number, and several other teachers were also contacting different people.
Meanwhile, a teacher standing up inadvertently glanced at the computer screen.
His expression suddenly froze, and he exclaimed in surprise.
Including Pei Tianyi, the other teachers in the research investigation team did not believe that Ying Zijing's computer skills were capable of tracking Herwin's exact location.
Pei Tianyi was able to come with the group because his computer skills were very high, no less than those of an average programmer, and perhaps even better.
He is a college student, so he has plenty of time.
If even Pei Tianyi couldn't locate Professor Herwin, how could anyone else?
How could a high school student possibly compare to Pei Tianyi in computer skills?
But the facts are undeniable: Ying Zijing did indeed use the miniature locator that Pei Tianyi placed on Herwin to pinpoint Herwin's location.
Hearing the teacher shout, Pei Tianyi suppressed his impatience and turned around.
He originally wanted to shout, but when he saw the words "Target locked", his eyes widened suddenly.
Pei Tianyi stopped pressing the dial button and quickly rushed to the computer, feeling utterly incredulous.
He spent an hour but still couldn't find Herwin's whereabouts.
However, Ying Zijing only used the computer for a minute or two.
Pei Tianyi stiffened as he recalled what he had said earlier.
How could a high school student actually possess computer skills comparable to those of a hacker?
Pei Tianyi pursed his lips, feeling as if the frame on the computer screen was slapping him in the face, and he felt a surge of irritation all over his body.
He considered himself a genius and had never been so humiliated by anyone before.
At that moment, another box popped up on the screen.
The positioning device will be destroyed in ten seconds.
Ten, nine, eight...
"Quickly." Pei Tianyi was a little excited. "This is the programmed sequence. We need to record the coordinates as soon as possible."
Ying Zijing ignored him. She zoomed in on the map, glanced at it, and then had a clear idea of what was going on.
Pei Tianyi is of Chinese descent and has lived in O continent since childhood. She is not familiar with China and does not know which building this coordinate refers to.
“You…” Pei Tianyi looked up, about to call out to the girl.
He had barely uttered a single word when Ying Zijin stood up and left the computer.
She walked up to another teacher: "What is an L-shaped spray?"
The teacher paused for a moment before turning around abruptly and immediately saying, "The L-shaped spray is the latest product from our laboratory, developed over five years. It can rapidly regenerate skin and capillaries."
"Depending on the size of the wound, different dosages are sprayed. As long as it is not too fatal or dangerous, it is enough to make the wound heal quickly without any process."
After listening, Ying Zijing pondered for a moment: "Is that all?"
Is it really worth the effort to kidnap Herwin just because of a spray?
If Herwin were to get into trouble, the entire academic community would be outraged.
No matter how well the other party hides, they will be found out sooner or later.
The teacher was taken aback by the question again, and stammered, "Is this... not enough?"
Without even needing surgery, it can heal wounds and repair skin. Once the efficacy of the L-shaped spray is revealed, it will cause a global sensation.
Only three cans of the L-type spray have been produced so far, and the required materials are very scarce, so the laboratory has not announced it to the outside world.
Because Ying Zijing successfully located Professor Herwin's position, Pei Tianyi's tone softened, and he explained, "You may not understand biomedicine, but the L-type spray can be considered a great invention."
Ying Zijin pressed her head.
She forgot one thing.
Such medicines have long existed in the alchemy and ancient medicine fields, but the L-shaped spray is not as effective as the ointment that Fu Yunshen gave her.
However, very few people in both the alchemy and ancient medicine communities know about it.
Not to mention, these two places are completely isolated from the outside world.
Neither alchemists nor ancient healers would reveal their core techniques.
Especially since alchemy is supernatural, it naturally needs to be kept secret.
Therefore, L-shaped sprays are indeed very important.
Ying Zijing didn't say anything more, got up and left the conference room.
Pei Tianyi frowned, but didn't have time to chase after them.
He handed the landmarks he had written down to another teacher before dialing the number for the O Continent Lab.
Because the L-type spray is very important, this experimental research was invested in by a large conglomerate in O continent. They need to obtain the consent of this conglomerate in order to exchange the L-type spray for Hervin.
After Pei Tianyi finished speaking, the laboratory quickly reported the news.
The reply came faster than Pei Tianyi had expected. Five minutes later, the phone rang again, and it was someone from that big tycoon calling.
"Sorry, we won't exchange Professor Herwin for the L-type spray. You'll have to figure it out yourselves."
A cold, emotionless statement.
Before Pei Tianyi could say anything, the other party had already hung up the phone.
He was utterly astonished.
The other teachers shook their heads and sighed.
Indeed, for that tycoon, Herwin's life was clearly less important than the new invention of the L-type spray.
"Damn it." Pei Tianyi was furious. He put on his clothes and walked out. "I'm going to meet up with the Shanghai police. I'll wait there first."
He could only pray that the other party wouldn't kill him in a fit of anger.

On the other side.
Ying Zijing leaned against a tree and made a phone call: "Young Master Nie, there's a troublesome matter. I need an elite team."
Upon hearing the word "elite," Nie Yi realized something was wrong. He asked in a low voice, "What happened?"
There are ten teams in total, but that's just on the surface.
In the shadows, there were two more teams.
These two teams are known as the "elite teams".
Because the members of both teams are all ancient martial arts practitioners with profound internal strength, they are no different from the martial arts masters in TV dramas who can fly over rooftops and walk on walls, and are even more powerful.
“A top international professor has been kidnapped.” Ying Zijing lowered her eyes. “I need manpower.”
Although her physical essence has been restored, she is not suitable to use ancient martial arts during this period.
She had no idea who the other person was.
But she suspected that there must be a hypnotist among those who kidnapped Herwin.
Otherwise, Herwin's bodyguards wouldn't have lost their memories of that period.
“Okay,” Nie Yi said. “I’ll send someone over right away.”
Scholarship knows no borders; the loss of a top professor is a loss to the entire world.
Nie Yi hung up the phone and immediately went down to make the arrangements.

At five o'clock, Zuo Li rushed over from the capital.
He went directly to meet up with Pei Tianyi, and the police were also there.
This place is 100 meters away from where Herwin was kidnapped.
They didn't dare get too close, for fear of being discovered.
Pei Tianyi frowned and called out, "Professor Zuo Li."
"How is it going?" Zuo Li asked anxiously. "Did they say what they want in return for releasing them?"
Pei Tianyi paused for a moment before speaking, "They want the L-shaped spray, but—"
He recounted what had happened.
Zuo Li was furious: "They only care about profit; they're not human!"
“We still can’t contact them.” Pei Tianyi sighed, staring straight ahead. “We can only wait for them to contact us.”
Zuo Li realized he couldn't help at all and was very anxious until he saw a familiar face.
For some reason, the breath I had been holding in suddenly relaxed: "Student Ying."
Pei Tianyi was taken aback and turned around.
"No, no." Zuo Li came to her senses. "It's too dangerous here. You can't stay here."
Ying Zijin raised an eyebrow and said four words slowly and deliberately: "Eliminate the wicked and bring peace to the land."
Zuo Li: "..."
He forgot that this little girl could take on several grown men single-handedly, and was at least stronger than him.
“You really shouldn’t stay here.” Pei Tianyi frowned and said, “If something happens later, we won’t be able to spare the effort to protect you. It would be better if you and Professor Zuo Li went back and waited for news.”
"No need, no need." Zuo Li waved his hand and spoke up for Ying Zijin, "I'm not some top professor, they don't care to kidnap me."
Ying Zijing took out her phone and glanced at the time.
The elite team will arrive in ten minutes.
She hesitated for a moment, then decided to post a question on the NOK forum.
Pei Tianyi glanced around, then suddenly paused.
He saw a familiar image on the girl's phone.
It is the tenth card of the Major Arcana in the Tarot, The Hermit.
It is also the login icon for the NOK forum.
Pei Tianyi was stunned for a moment, his gaze involuntarily falling on the login ID.
I opened the comments section of our Xiaoxiang channel today and...?
Please, have some decency! TvT
See you tomorrow~
