CH 178 Hospital
Yanghui Technology, which had been targeting them, disappeared overnight without any follow-up actions. This surprised Shen Xu for a while, thinking that this was the calm before the storm. It was not until Changjiang went public as scheduled did he finally feel relieved.
Jiang Chen stayed in the company for a day, overseeing the data of the Changjiang Home Version, making sure there were no problems. Before leaving the company he also agreed on celebrating the successful listing of Changjiang this Saturday with the whole company.
Since realizing that the purpose of He Qianjian's DTW System arriving on earth might not be as simple as imagined, the Changjiang project team began to devote most of its manpower to research and analyze the various information and data left by the DTW System. Recently it had finally come to an end and the systematic analysis report would be out soon. The researchers in the laboratory were so busy they would have wished for nothing more than to split into two, and Jiang Chen was the same.
As soon as he walked to the door of the company, he received a call from Yang Yun. Jiang Ran's babbling sounded over the phone. Yang Yun soft voice held a smile: "Ran Ran is holding on to your photo and won't let go. Her drool is even dripping onto it. I'm afraid she won't let go until you come back and she sees you in person."
"Chen Chen, I heard that you went to the company. We are all at home. Are you coming back for dinner today?"
Yang Si also spoke up next to her, and the sounds of the two fathers talking could be heard intermittently in the background. From time to time, hearty laughter could be heard, and the sounds of He Qianmin and He Qianyu quarreling were also mixed in.
The liveliness on the other end made Jiang Chen, who was standing on the street, soften his eyes.
"I just came out of the company, I should be there in half an hour..."
But halfway through speaking, the somewhat noisy call was cut for a moment, and Changjiang’s voice came in:
"Dylan, Shi Fengyue's call is coming in."
Jiang Chen paused. His mobile phone had always been connected to Changjiang's system. However, since Changjiang was currently a confidential project, he almost never used Changjiang's functions in front of others. Most of the time, his mobile phone was no different from ordinary mobile phones. However, for the sake of special circumstances, he still set some small settings.
For example, even if there was no power or if other emergencies occurred, it could use the backup power supply and special firewall to cut incoming calls at will. Among the special contacts set here, Shi Fengyue was one of them. This type of call could only be done with special means.
This could also be regarded as an alarm or reminder. If such a call came in, Jiang Chen would immediately realize that the situation was urgent.
Since installing this program, Jiang Chen had never received a call through this emergency program. Today was the first time.
Shi Fengyue would not call like this for no reason. There must be an emergency.
Jiang Chen didn't hesitate and answered the phone immediately.
Almost as soon as Changjiang finished speaking, Shi Fengyue's voice rang out, concisely saying: "Personnel from the Scientific Research Bureau and the Special Department are here, as well as the old gentleman."
Jiang Chen reacted instantly. Today was not only the day when Changjiang went public, it was also the time when the analysis report was submitted. However, he had thought that after the analysis report was submitted, it would be reviewed at all levels before being handed over to the top few people for judgment.
Unexpectedly, in just a few hours, that person would be alarmed.
He made his decision in an instant: "I'll be right back."
After hanging up over there, Jiang Chen said to Yang Yun, who was still waiting: "Mom, I can't go back today. Something important came up in the laboratory, so don't wait for me."
Yang Yun had been waiting since the line was switched. She didn't think much, she just thought it was an ordinary call coming in at the same time. Now when Jiang Chen said this, she knew it should be a call from the laboratory. Although she was a little disappointed, she also knew that Jiang Chen's current project was very important and could not be delayed just because of a meal.
"Go ahead, pay attention to safety, don't stay up late working, and remember to eat."
Jiang Chen agreed to all patiently. Before hanging up the phone, he vaguely heard He Qianmin's inquiry and Yang Yun's gentle answer.
The two retired soldiers who had been following Jiang Chen before were still following him now. They were the ones who sent him to the company today and didn't know the situation in the laboratory. When Jiang Chen got in the car, one smiled and asked, "Do you want to go back to the He’s directly?"
Jiang Chen shook his head: "Go back to the Military Research Institute."
Neither of them asked any questions, and smoothly drove Jiang Chen to the entrance of the Military Research Institute at the maximum speed allowed.
The Military Research Institute was very large, and the laboratories were located in different places. However, for the convenience of management, they could only enter through one gate, and except for a few leaders, no outside vehicles were allowed to enter.
Qian Yi was about to stop at the gate as usual, when he saw the soldiers on guard immediately open the gate, saluted and let them in.
"What's going on?" Qian Yi was still a little confused.
Jiang Chen didn't have time to explain, "It's a case of emergency, drive directly to the entrance of the laboratory."
Qian Yi drove in without asking any more questions. He was even more surprised when he found that there were people clearing the way at every intersection, but he didn't ask any more questions and just speeded up.
In less than five minutes, the car stopped at the entrance of the laboratory.
As soon as Qian Yi parked the car, he saw two soldiers guarding the door of the laboratory that he had seen from a distance before. One of them opened the door and saluted Jiang Chen who got out of the car: "Mr. Jiang!"
Jiang Chen nodded hurriedly and walked inside quickly.
A soldier led him, and the other directed Qian Yi to park the car in another direction. When he reversed the car into the garage, he saw clearly the appearance of several cars parked next to him. When he got out of the car, his feet paused, and his usually steady expression suddenly changed. He couldn't help but turn around and take a few more glances before he dared to believe that he was not mistaken.
The comrade who got out of the car on the other side was also in disbelief: "Old Qian, that, that's not…?"
Qian Yi nodded, remembering the appearance of the soldier who opened Jiang Chen's car door before. Something flashed through his mind. He suddenly remembered why the other looked so familiar just now. Wasn't he the one who had appeared next to that person during the military parade?
“Holy mother..."
Qian Yi also took a deep breath to suppress his racing heart, and managed to maintain a calm expression: "When we were ordered to protect Mr. Jiang before, we already knew that his identity was extraordinary."
"That's not simply extraordinary... We have taken on this kind of mission not once or twice, but this is the first time I have seen such a battle. In our squadron, even the captain has never seen such a scene."
As this person said this, he couldn't help but laugh.
Qian Yi knew his teammate's character, so he rolled his eyes at him and strode towards the laboratory.
"Damn it, wait for me!"
While the two were waiting at the entrance of the laboratory, Jiang Chen was talking to someone from the Scientific Research Bureau.
"Are you sure this system is in another person's body?"
The director-general of the Scientific Research Bureau came in person. He was a middle-aged man with a stern face. When he spoke, his voice was the same as his expression, sounding very serious and dignified.
"Very sure." Jiang Chen showed the other the data and models he had compiled during many previous encounters with the System. The old gentleman was also very curious and stood on the side to observe.
After looking at it, Wang Hui, director of the Scientific Research Bureau, frowned.
Although not many people know about the Changjiang Project, he was one of them. Although he had not met Jiang Chen face to face before, he had heard a lot about him from different friends and colleagues. Towards this young genius, he had a certain understanding of his character and ability.
And when he saw the report, he also saw the various information and analytical data submitted with the report. The documents inside were very complete and there was no possibility of fraud. Moreover, he also believed that no one would dare to fake a threat towards national security or even global security.
Therefore, almost as soon as he read the report, he dialed the number of the Supreme Secretariat, and at the same time contacted the Special Department, and rushed over as soon as he received the instructions.
But he didn't expect that the old gentleman himself, who had just returned from a visit to another country this morning and hadn't even had time to rest, would come with him.
The authenticity of the report was almost very certain, but he still had to confirm it further.
"Where is that person?"
"Zhangshan Prison."
Wang Hui glanced back. No need to say anything, his secretary had already picked up the phone and made a call.
In less than two minutes, the secretary's cell phone rang. After the call was connected, the secretary's expression changed slightly after hearing something. He said "Wait a moment" to the other end of the line, and walked quickly towards this side.
"Director, He Qianjian is in the hospital now."
"Hospital?" Wang Hui frowned even more tightly, "Which hospital?"
If he was in prison, it would be impossible for the secretary to say the word "hospital" directly. He Qianjian was not in prison at this time.
Others present quickly realized what this meant.
Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows in surprise, and the head of the Special Department, who had been silent until now, asked the question that most people here wanted to know: "Isn't he in prison? Why is he in the hospital?"
