Nian Junting rubbed his forehead and stopped talking.
…
The next day, Nian Xi, Zhan Hong, and two other police officers headed to Jiang Yuning’s research institute.
Before leaving, they needed to learn about the detailed schedule and the security arrangement from Jiang Yuning’s people.
The research institution was an hour away. Nian Xi found the institution belonged to the area which was under the administration of her old police station. It was a very old physics research institution in Xia City.
Nian Xi had never been there before. After entering the place, she found the institution was fully equipped even though it looked very old and worn-out on the outside. However, she felt a little chilly while walking in.
“Over there is the research area. Officers, please wait here,” said the person who guided them in.
The four of them waited there, feeling a little bored. Nian Xi couldn’t help but look around. She walked to the wall and noticed a group photo on it. While closely looking at the photo, she found a young man in the photo, looking very outstanding among the middle-aged and elderly researchers.
Seeing the clean and pretty face, Nian Xi was stunned.
The young man looked so much like the one that she once brought back to her place, but she didn’t remember his name.
He’s a scientist? Nian Xi thought. I wouldn’t know. He’s so young and gawky. He really doesn’t look like a scientist. Also, he looks younger than twenty-nine.
However, according to Fan Yi, he was handsome. Among all in the photo, he was the only handsome one.
“We are sorry for making you wait.” Abruptly, two men walked out. One of them looked polite and elegant, and the other one looked super strong.
Seeing them, Nian Xi’s eyes widened in shock.
Weren’t they the people who showed up every time to pick up the young man?
“Good to meet you. My family name is Han. I have been taking care of Mr. Jiang since he was a child. This time, we will go to Paris with you. This is Xu Gang, from the special force. He started to work for Mr. Jiang since the project achieved major progress.” Uncle Han introduced himself and his partner.
Nian Xi walked to him with surprise and said, “Mr. Jiang is not…”
“Yes, he is.” Uncle Han smiled and nodded.
Nian Xi was so shocked that she didn’t know what to say.
“Do you know each other?” Zhan Hong asked.
Uncle Han smiled and answered the question. “Miss Nian used to work in the police station in this area. She found Mr. Jiang a couple of times when he was lost. Mr. Jiang is terrible with directions.”
“So this time Mr. Jiang asked for…”
“No, I did,” said Uncle Han. “Mr. Jiang is a lonely person. He doesn’t like to talk either. This time you need to guard him closely for a week. I think it’ll be better for him to stay with someone that he’s familiar with. I can’t make it clear with you now, but I believe Miss Nian understands it deeply.”
The other three police officers all turned to Nian Xi. Nian Xi nodded with a bitter smile.
Fang Qi nodded and said, “I understand. Scientists stay indoors and work on science every day. They can have a strange character sometimes.”
“Mr. Jiang is working. Now, let’s talk about the schedule,” said Uncle Han.
The others nodded.
After hearing about the schedule, the four police officers were relieved. Except for some necessary events, Jiang Yuning would mostly stay in the hotel.
The schedule made people less worried. The most terrible thing would be that the people who were clearly aware they were in danger would still like to run about.
