Chapter 634 So even if you don't want to tell me, I still want to ask what exactly happened.
Where did Chu Xin go? She went to find Jia Zhenyan.
If she could still sleep peacefully amidst the deafening thud of Zhou Yichen's fists slamming on the table, it would most likely mean she was either deaf or dead.
Startled awake, she propped her head up in a daze for a moment, then got up and left the group's office area without intending to eavesdrop on what was happening in the small office.
The place where Jia Zhenyan is now is very different from when he first joined the Special Branch. It is no longer just a random room where he can tinker with things as he pleases. Instead, he has been properly assigned a guard to watch over the room, and the room has been replaced with a larger, more spacious, and bright laboratory. There is even a rest room.
Chu Xin's face was recognized by everyone in the Special Branch. When she arrived at the laboratory entrance, the two guards gave her a military salute and stepped aside, indicating that she could go in.
However, Chu Xin didn't go in. Instead, she walked to the window and looked inside. She found Jia Zhenyan sitting at the table with his back to her, fiddling with something. He was probably too focused on it, as his whole back was hunched over.
Chu Xin glanced around and her lips twitched when she saw the thing on the table that looked like a TV screen.
Could he have just gotten so bored that he built himself a TV to kill time?
She immediately rejected the idea as soon as it came to mind.
Television signal receivers are not allowed to have antennas installed in classified units like the Special Branch, and the unit has strict requirements and controls on the electromagnetic environment.
Jia Zhenyan wouldn't do something so stupid, and she didn't see anything resembling an antenna outside.
In the laboratory, Jia Zhenyan's busy body suddenly stopped.
Although he was not good at fighting, after going on several missions with Zhou Yichen and others and actually going through a hail of bullets, his body's reaction and vigilance were stronger than that of ordinary people. At this moment, he deeply felt that someone was watching him.
He stopped what he was doing, turned around with a cold face, and was stunned for a moment when he saw Chu Xin, but then he became happy again.
He immediately pulled out a chair, strode over, opened the door, smiled at the two guards, and then looked at Chu Xin, "When did you get back?"
Chu Xin walked over slowly. "I haven't been here long. Are you busy? If not, shall we go for a walk?"
She decided to avoid going into the lab, lest she be stopped and asked questions that only made her want to rummage through documents—it was too much of a headache.
"Um...ok!"
Upon hearing Chu Xin's words, Jia Zhenyan paused for a moment, but quickly regained his composure and agreed.
Chu Xin knew he was probably worried about running into those three people, so she smiled and didn't say that the people at the Special Branch gate had already left. She told the two guards about the two men's movements and asked them to tell Zhou Yichen to meet at the state-run restaurant for lunch. Then she and Jia Zhenyan left leisurely.
Jia Zhenyan didn't completely relax until he walked out of the Special Branch gate, and he even had the mood to ask Chu Xin why she came to see him as soon as she returned.
"Do you have any good ideas that I need to put into practice? In terms of mechanics or weapons?"
The behavior of a complete workaholic.
Chu Xin didn't want to talk about any of this. "No, don't get so worked up. Have you finished your own work and now you want to do something else? Don't be so greedy and end up accomplishing nothing!"
Jia Zhenyan laughed directly, "Oh, it's alright. I have plenty of free time now. If you have any inspiration, feel free to share it."
It seemed something really had happened. For someone as busy as him to say he was free, Chu Xin immediately stopped beating around the bush and asked, "Um... so you're not going to the arsenal?"
The question was so sudden that Jia Zhenyan was caught off guard. However, judging from Chu Xin's expression, she knew that Chu Xin knew everything. She didn't know what to say and hesitated for a while before nodding, "Well, I'm not going. I feel that nowhere is as comfortable as our workplace."
"You were bullied over there? Jia Zhenyan, you're such a coward. Even though we're not in the capital, we still have Chu Yunting, or at the very least, Elder Ge. Would he let his own people be bullied?"
"If you stay silent like this, how will anyone know what's going on? What if people outside say you're afraid to go because you're in the wrong? Wouldn't that be a slap in the face for all of us?"
Chu Xin had a gut feeling that the three people she saw at the entrance of the Special Branch today were definitely not right. Their eagerness to see Jia Zhenyan to clear up the misunderstanding was fake, but covering his mouth was real.
Even if she says she doesn't care, she can't just watch her own people suffer and have to keep quiet. There's no one in their entire task force who can tolerate that much!
Upon hearing Chu Xin's sharp question, Jia Zhenyan's smiling face immediately froze, then turned into indignation and grievance, "You know? You ran into them at the door, didn't you?"
"Yes, that's right. To be honest, I initially came to see you just to check on you. I didn't really intend to get involved, but I really can't stand it when I see you forced to hide at home and tinker with the TV, doing something so easy. Not to mention me, no one in a group of us would agree to that. So even if you don't want to talk about it, I still want to ask what happened."
