At this moment, looking at Zhou Xiaoxiao’s reply, Su Yun quickly composed another message and sent it.
“Xiaoxiao, why are you leaving so early? I wanted to visit you. Have you not been free recently?”
After chatting for the past few days, the two of them had indeed gotten closer. Even the way they addressed each other had changed from ‘Officer Zhou’ to ‘Xiaoxiao’. It was not that Su Yun had any thoughts. It was mainly to probe. If the relationship was too stiff, who would be willing to chat with you?
When she saw this message, Zhou Xiaoxiao, who was sitting in the car, immediately blushed. “Is he asking me out to play? This is a date, right?”
Zhou Xiaoxiao, who had never been in a relationship, guessed blindly. She felt that Su Yun’s words were a little too direct. Who would ask a girl out like this? Anyone would feel embarrassed.
Should she refuse or agree? Eh, that’s not right. I’m about to return to Hibiscus City. How can I have the time to go out with him?
“Xiaoxiao, what’s the matter?” Chen Ye, who was driving, seemed to have noticed the change in Zhou Xiaoxiao’s expression. He thought that she was not feeling well, so he asked with concern.
Hearing this, Xiao Li, who was sitting at the side, could not help but look over. Zhou Xiaoxiao immediately hid her phone and shook her head. ‘IN-nothing.”
Chen Ye did not think too much about it. He was just asking casually. After confirming that no one had noticed her, Zhou Xiaoxiao secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she secretly replied to Su Yun:
“I’m sorry, but our departure is very urgent. The location of Chi You’s Tomb has basically been confirmed. We have to form a team to go to Munan City as soon as possible to avoid any trouble. Therefore, we can’t stay in Fan City anymore.”
It could be said that Zhou Xiaoxiao was an inexperienced girl who had never been in a relationship. With just a few words, she was a little dizzy.
She didn’t explicitly refuse, but she didn’t explicitly agree either. The hidden meaning was naturally: When my mission is over and I return to Hibiscus City, can you try asking me out again?
However, after seeing the news, Su Yun finally got the result he wanted.
“Did they really find it?” Su Yun had just finished his daily Chinese medicine studies and was at home. He quickly opened a map and searched for the location of Munan City.
It was actually the border!
Su Yun did not expect the location of Chi You’s tomb to be near the border of
China. The mountain range behind Munan City happened to cross the border. This made Su Yun frown slightly. He finally understood why the professors had rushed back to Hibiscus City in such an emergency.
They should also be worried about the mysterious research institute overseas.
After all, the enemy was not stupid. They must have been searching for Chi You’s Tomb. Perhaps they had made progress.
Moreover, the location of the Chi You’s Tomb was so remote that it was very likely to be taken advantage of by the overseas research institute. Therefore, the most important thing now was to quickly send an archeological team to investigate.
Munan City’s geographical location was relatively special. It was located in the southernmost part of China and was the closest city to the border.
The area of Munan City was not too big. Most of it was deep mountains and rainforests. With such a special geographical location, it was naturally inconvenient for the archeological team to take action.
However, the influence of Chi You’s Tomb was too great. It would be extremely important to China’s archeological development and the advancement of genetics, especially genetics. It might even change the progress of civilization!
Therefore, although the difficulty of this reconnaissance operation would be very high, from the way Zhou Xiaoxiao and the others left Fan City in a hurry, this did not seem to affect their determination.
After all, everyone knew that the mysterious research institute overseas would not give up on investigating Chi You’s Tomb. Now that they had confirmed that Chi You’s tomb was in a dangerous area at the border, Professor Sun and the others could not sit still.
“The border, the tomb of Chi You, the mysterious research institute.”
Su Yun stared at the location of Munan City on the map for nearly a minute.
No one knew what Su Yun was thinking at that minute. A moment later, he suddenly raised his head. A ferocious glint suddenly shot out of his originally calm eyes, as if he had made up his mind.
“Fuck him! ”
The next day, the morning light broke.
Compared to the tall buildings in the city, the small courtyard in the countryside was quite lively. Sunlight shone into the courtyard, and spots dotted the drying grains. The livestock had long woken up and started their morning exercise. The green fields in the courtyard were gratifying. When a breeze blew through the gauze window, it finally woke up the morning.
However, Su Yun had already packed his backpack and came to the courtyard. He was sitting on a stool eating breakfast.
Su Guowei was standing in the courtyard with Yang Shan and looking at his son in silence. After a long while, Su Yun finally put down his bowl and chopsticks. He wiped his mouth and stood up.
“Dad, Mom, I’m leaving.” Su Yun bade farewell to his parents. After some reminders, he finally embarked on his journey to leave his hometown. Just as he walked out of the door and turned around, Yang Shan’s voice trembled slightly. It entered Su Yun’s ears and pierced his heart.
“Son, Dad and Mom know that you have something going on. The police have already come to look for us previously. However, if you don’t want to say it, we won’t ask further. I just want to get reassurance from you..”
