Chapter 544:
"This is another story." Senior Firefly smiled and then changed the heat-reducing sticker for me.
"Okay, it's getting late, so you'd better take a break early.
Otherwise, the master will be angry, Miss Lin.”
Against the backdrop of a happy smile, her teasing at this moment made me feel angry and funny.
"Also," Senior Firefly winked.
"Remember not to tell anyone."
After two days of recuperation in the hotel, my health finally improved a little.
So I went to the Institute of Atomic Science at Nachuan University with Tingchen and Ulysses, who are also studying physics.
The Institute of Atomic Science is located on a mountain more than ten kilometers away from the main campus and is generally not open to the public.
We have to show the pass to the station staff before we can take the small shuttle bus to the place.
The shuttle bus is rugged and surrounded by a large area of undeveloped pristine forest.
If I hadn't had the phone barely received the signal in the car, I would have thought I had arrived at the Aboriginal reservation.
"Student Shuimu, I want to vomit..." Tingchen's face turned blue, looking like a zombie in a horror movie; he grabbed my shoulder, scaring me almost screamed.
Damn, I want to vomit too... What's more, I haven't fully recovered yet, so if I want to vomit, I should vomit first, it's true.
Ulysses sat opposite him, playing mobile games with all his heart, as if he couldn't feel any bumps; perhaps for him, the calm environment would make him want to vomit.
After arriving at the destination, Tingchen immediately ran to the bathroom and vomited heavily, leaving Ulysses and me outside the institute's door.
"Why do you want to come to this place where birds don't lay eggs?" Ulysses said in a depressed mood.
"This is the order of the seniors, don't ask so many questions." I rolled my eyes and then changed the subject.
"By the way, why did you leave the United States and study here?"
"Because my mother was sent here by the company as a desolate bull last year, I came back here." He smiled.
"I can see my dad here and go to college, so why do I still have to go back?"
"What? Are you not an American? Why do you want to go to the university here instead?" I asked in surprise.
"It's a lot of money to go to college in the United States, but it doesn't need to be here." He shrugged.
"If I have to stay in the country to study for college, then I might as well stop studying."
If you have such grades, you may not be able to graduate smoothly even if you can go to college.
"Sorry, I'll have to wait for you for a long time." Tingchen returned to the door and said nervously.
"Let's go in quickly."
After entering the institute, we followed the instructions of the staff and went to the laboratory to put on radiation protective clothing.
"Please come with me here." The staff member moved away from the electronic pound storage cabinet and signaled us to walk into the dark compartment behind him.
However, just after entering the dark grid, the hidden elevator began to sink slowly, leading us to a depth of dozens of meters below the ground.
When the elevator stopped, the staff began to introduce us to the giant buildings standing beside us.
"Everyone, this is our latest third-generation nuclear reactor - abradvanced
Since its operation began in 2012, it has brought about 13% of the electricity generation per year to the entire island.”
"my country's nuclear energy technology is leading the world, and we will recruit more top talents with excellent results for our future R&D plans to contribute to our country."
"It's not like a nuclear power plant, it's rather a underground castle." I thought to myself.
"No wonder in the past few years, the salary of nuclear science researchers has doubled." Tingchen looked up at the fortress and said thoughtfully.
"Yes, I and other colleagues are at least considering that I have won glory for the country. It is normal to get more salary." The staff member nodded.
"What's wrong? Do you want to join our team?"
"I hope I really have the ability." He smiled embarrassedly.
Just as Tingchen was talking to the staff, Ulysses stared at the elevator, looking like he wanted to leave.
"It's so boring." He murmured in a low voice.
"At least let's visit the control room."
"We are not here to play this time, not to mention that the control room is not the place we should enter." I said seriously.
"What a pity," he showed a disappointed expression.
"I heard Chen Jingbang say before that this is a nuclear weapons research base, and there will be US non-commissioned officers coming and going from time to time."
"This is just a story made up by others." The staff member suddenly spoke up as if he had a good ear.
"Okay, the time is over, let's get back to the elevator soon."
The moment the elevator closed the door, there was another puzzle in my mind.
Looking from the glass ceiling of the indoor ice skating rink, countless stars are seen, complementing the faint lights in the interior.
The trajectories left by countless ice skates are crisscrossing, but the melting of the ice surface is fleeting, like the mark left by a meteor in the sky.
Ulysses and I galloped around the smooth ice surface of the mirror; and the traces we left were not at all detrimental to its brightness.
"That... is it really okay for us to do this? What should we do if we are discovered?" I looked around, afraid that other team members would find out.
"What are you afraid of so much? At worst, I'll be chanted by others." He disagreed.
"Anyway, I'm going back the day after tomorrow, so it's OK to play here for a while."
I looked at my watch and sighed.
"Brother, I understand your mood, but... it's already nine o'clock now. You have to know that I will go out early tomorrow, so I absolutely must not play too late."
The place I want to go tomorrow is the Civil War Memorial Park located at the northwest end of the city; since it is more than an hour's drive from the city center where the hotel is located, I have to set off as early as possible to avoid affecting the whole day's itinerary.
"So OK." He suddenly took my hand.
"Now, it's time to make a final sprint!"
As soon as I finished speaking, the cold wind blew over me, making it difficult for me to open my eyes.
After I came to my senses, I realized that I had already hugged the short Ulysses tightly.
"Ah!" He lowered his center of gravity and rushed towards the exit ahead.
"I'm going to run into someone else, Ulysses!" I shouted loudly and pointed at the middle-aged man ahead.
Chapter completed!
