Chapter 1066 - How Blind Are They



1066 How Blind Are They

How was Gu Nianzhi able to attend such a monumental event? Judging from her position in the photo, which certainly did not seem low, it way exceeded the usual treatment for interns.

Huo Shaoheng leaned against the door without any expression. Holding a cigarette in his hand and watching the butt of the cigarette burn, he felt his heart burn inside as well. However, on the surface he still had the same impassive expression.

With his Bluetooth headset on, he listened to the staff doing dispatches and scheduling, still in a tense state of high alert. At this time, no matter how what he saw made him feel inside, all he could do was to suppress his anger and patiently complete his work at hand before getting to the bottom of it.

Huo Shaoheng closed his eyes, slowly exhaled a breath of cigarette smoke, and stopped his train of thought from further diverging in order to focus his attention on the downtown area.

He stared at the ground in front of him impassively. It was seven years ago when Gu Nianzhi’s car suddenly caught fire and caught his attention. When he rushed in, tore off the stuck seat belt, and rescued Gu Nianzhi, the car exploded right here. The force of the explosion was so momentous that it blasted a deep pit in its place, and there had even been a mushroom cloud rising into the sky after the explosion. The blazing fire was so incredibly strong that the car was engulfed and burned into ashes in the blink of an eye without even leaving any residue behind.

Huo Shaoheng recalled what happened seven years ago to calm his mood at the moment, but the evening news on the big screen kept relentlessly tormenting him. A German delegation to China broadcast it for a full five minutes. Huo Shaoheng occasionally raised his eyes, but every time he did, he saw the snapshot of Gu Nianzhi and that German man called Reinitz.

The director must have really liked presenting them as a couple. At this rate, what was next—a commercial featuring them as the golden couple? Huo Shaoheng put one hand in his pocket and had the urge to take out another cigarette.

Right at that time, pedestrians on the street also noticed that unlike other days, today’s news had such an extraordinarily good-looking couple being featured, and they all stopped to stand and watch with intrigue.

“Wow! I never knew that us Chinese girls and handsome German guys could look that good together!”

Huo Shaoheng turned his head towards them silently. He felt sour and jealous inside, and couldn’t help but feel irked by their comments. “How blind are they?” he thought jealousy.

“Yeah yeah! Look at that handsome German guy! How can someone be so handsome, right?”

“Look at his military uniform! His epaulets! And his hands!”

“And his eyes! Ugh! I’m so jealous of that girl across from him! Although I’m not nearly as pretty as her, I have to say, I’d do anything for that handsome German guy!”

A few little girls were fawning over him and laughing not far from Huo Shaoheng, and their voices gradually became louder and louder, making more passersby stop and watch.

Huo Shaoheng’s eyebrows drew tighter and tighter together, and by that point, he could barely suppress his anger and irritation. He collected himself, stepped into his car, and took his laptop from the passenger’s seat. He typed a few lines quickly and connected his computer to the electronic screen system for the building opposite. After a minute, the huge screen on the building suddenly flashed for a second, then went black. The screen remained pitch dark.

“Huh? Where’s the news?”

“What happened?”

“This is so annoying! I haven’t even filmed the hot guy with my phone yet!”

A few little girls groaned and complained to express their displeasure.

“Whatever! There’s a live broadcast on your phone. Go and take a screenshot!” They quickly found a new way to watch on their phones and continued to watch the evening news.

Huo Shaoheng was speechless.

The ratings for evening news that night must have been bursting with high numbers. The corners of Huo Shaoheng’s mouth pulled down with discontent, and he threw the laptop aside in annoyance.

He leaned on the driver’s seat and wanted to close his eyes to rest for a while, but it didn’t take long for Song Jinning’s voice to ring through the Bluetooth headset. “Shaoheng? Shaoheng? Come here for a sec!” Song Jinning’s voice sounded anxious and was even trembling, making her voice sound about an octave higher than usual.

Huo Shaoheng immediately opened his eyes, pushed open the door, and got out of the car, speeding towards the van where Song Jinning was. He walked past the little girls who were watching the evening news being broadcast on their phones. One of the little girls looked up to see who was passing by but was instantly stunned into silence when she saw Huo Shaoheng’s face. Without a word she watched him enter the van, then she started screaming in excitement. She was even more excited than when she had seen the handsome German man on TV.

She started gushing to her friends saying, “Oh my God! I just saw the hottest guy I have ever seen, and he is even more handsome than the guy on this screen! He’s so good looking, he puts this German guy to shame!”

“Are you sure? It’s really dark outside. How could you tell? Did you even get a good look at his face?” Her friends teased and mocked her, none of them believing her.

Huo Shaoheng actually wore a low, wide-brimmed military cap that concealed his entire forehead, and since it was dark outside, few people could see his face clearly. However, even the darkness couldn’t hide his handsome features and striking figure.

Huo Shaoheng entered Song Jinning’s car and saw her in the middle of two rows of large flashing instruments. She was quickly typing away on the keyboard and recording data on the computer.

“What’s wrong?” Huo Shaoheng asked calmly and came over to get a closer look at the data on Song Jinning’s laptop.

Pointing to the rising data, Song Jinning said excitedly, “Shaoheng! Look at this data! This means that the magnetic field is becoming more and more conspicuous and getting stronger! I don’t know how strong it will be at its maximum, but I can tell you this; the strength of the magnetic field at this moment is the strongest it has ever been since we first started doing observations and recording them! It has already broken the record!”

The first observation record the Huaxia Empire had taken of this magnetic field was over 20 years ago. It was this set of magnetic field data that prompted the military to cooperate with the Chinese Institute of High Energy Physics. Song Haichuan, the director of the Chinese Institute of High Energy Physics at that time, conducted secret experiments to perfectly replicate this set of naturally occurring magnetic field data in a laboratory setting.

In the end, they had no idea what went wrong, but their attempts failed miserably, and a strong magnetic storm that occurred in the magnetic field not only caused all the electronic equipment in the laboratory to malfunction, but it also unexpectedly sparked a huge explosion.

“The emergence of a strong magnetic field will allow us to improve our observation data, which will be critical in order for us to continue the test that was interrupted 17 years ago,” Song Jinning said rapidly, and the movement of her hands on the keyboard became faster and faster.

The data on both sides of the instruments beside her started appearing faster and faster, and was appearing so rapidly that in the end it became hard to distinguish one from another.

Huo Shaoheng stared at the data for a while, then said, “There should be a surveillance video here, right? Let’s take a look at the surveillance footage later and check frame by frame. That way, we can ensure that the data can be better repaired.”

Song Jinning nodded. “Of course. I’m doing a brief preliminary analysis now. For a more detailed analysis, I will have to go back and re-enter the data based on the surveillance footage.”

While she was speaking, she glanced back at the data analysis on the computer but gradually began to realize that there was something wrong with the data she had recorded. “Shaoheng...” Song Jinning’s voice trembled. “Something is wrong.”

“What’s wrong?” Huo Shaoheng immediately grasped Song Jinning’s arm and was ready to drag her out of the car any second.
