Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 459 What exactly is being researched here?

"Were the armed police and guards outside also transferred here later?" Yu Dazhang asked.

Even the National Security Bureau suffered losses at the hands of the other side, so naturally the higher-ups need to increase the number of personnel for security, and they have to be the best.

“That’s right,” Li Mingzhao nodded.
"Protection is only one aspect; the main purpose is to serve as a deterrent."

There's a hidden meaning in his words... Yu Dazhang thought for a moment and asked:

"You mean, they'll come back?"

Since we've come to the point of using deterrence, it means the other side has been keeping an eye on this area.

Those armed police and guards outside are just for show.

"They haven't finished their mission yet."

Li Mingzhao explained helplessly:
"It's obvious you don't know much about spies."

“Unlike the criminals you’ve encountered before, the agents are targeted, highly professional, and have a plan.”

He specifically emphasized:

"Never give up until the goal is achieved; this is basic operation for secret agents, especially since they are carrying out special missions."

Seeing that Da Zhang didn't quite understand, he changed the subject and asked in return:
"To put it another way, if you were a special agent sent out by the country, would you back down when you encounter difficulties during the mission?"

"You should have asked this earlier..." Yu Dazhang finally understood.

This time, the opponents were not criminals or gangsters, but well-trained and professionally trained enemy agents.

In their eyes, everything they do is a glorious mission.

In fact, many countries around the world train professional agents.

Let me give you a real example.

Our neighbors, those who trained agents, actually stole the US's money-printing technology.

The counterfeit bills were called "super dollars" and were so realistic that they were almost indistinguishable from the real thing.

Do not ask.

Ask them and they'll accuse them of slander; their main stance is to deny everything.

Despite being subjected to comprehensive sanctions by the United States, they were still able to do something beyond imagination.

Therefore, never underestimate the intelligence agents of any country.

You simply can't imagine what those people are capable of.

"Let's go check out the experimental area."

Yu Dazhang said to Li Mingzhao:
"Since they've got my eye on this, I need to check out the situation."

He still uses the mindset of solving crimes to think about problems; this has become a habit, even an instinct, for him.

The reason Li Mingzhao called Yu Dazhang over was because he valued Yu's unique ability and keen insight in solving cases.

The two then arrived at a test area.

Standing on the roof of a two-story building, Yu Dazhang looked at the circular buildings in the experimental zone.

"Why does it look like an enlarged version of a yurt?" Yu Dazhang asked in confusion.

"You really know how to describe things," Li Mingzhao smiled.
“Where can you find such a large yurt? Besides, those buildings are all made of reinforced concrete.”

Yu Dazhang then turned his attention to the center of the experimental zone.

Surrounded by these circular buildings, there is an open space about the size of a football field.

The ground is paved with bricks and stones, and from a distance it looks like a square for taking a stroll.

However, the square was completely bare, with nothing there.

"What's that place used for?" Yu Dazhang asked, pointing to the open space.

"I don't know." Li Mingzhao shook his head.
"It's probably a site used for experiments, but what kind of experiments are being conducted is a secret."

The things being studied in such places are definitely top secret, so even if they are very curious, they can only hold back.

"Would you like to go in and take a look?" Li Mingzhao asked with a smile.

"It would be best if we could go in and see it." Yu Dazhang certainly wanted to go in and broaden his horizons, since not just anyone could visit such a classified unit.

"Wait for me to make a call."

As Li Mingzhao spoke, he walked to the side, took out his phone, and made a call. Two minutes later, he put the phone in his pocket and waved to Da Zhang:

"Approved. Come with me."

The two then entered a circular building and saw researchers working diligently in a spacious room.

The people were not surprised by their arrival and continued with their work.

“All the researchers working here are from academia,” Li Mingzhao said in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, Yu Dazhang appeared calm on the surface, but in reality, he was deeply shocked.

He knew the value of the term "academic circle".

In this field, the career path of researchers can be described as the path to godhood.

A PhD is the lowest level in the field, and a postdoctoral fellowship is merely preparation for a formal teaching position.

Above that are lecturers, associate professors, and associate researchers.

And all of these are at the bottom of the academic hierarchy.

Only those who rise to the mid-level academic circle can be considered core members. This level includes professors, researchers, outstanding young scientists, and distinguished young scientists...

I won't list them all; most people haven't even heard of many of these professional titles.

Just as Da Zhang was in shock, two men who looked to be in their fifties walked towards them.

"Academician Chen, Academician Cui."

Li Mingzhao immediately stepped forward to greet him, smiling and bowing respectfully.

This was the first time Yu Dazhang had ever seen Team Leader Li so respectful to someone.

However, the other party is indeed worth it for him to do so.

Academician is the highest academic title in China's academic circles, representing the pinnacle of scientific research.

I unexpectedly met two of them here.

Moreover, he is an academician in his fifties, which is extremely rare in the entire academic circle.

This is truly a powerful national weapon... Yu Dazhang watched quietly from the side.

After greeting Li Mingzhao, the two academicians walked up to a piece of equipment.

They kept discussing the icons on the instrument, as if they had encountered some intractable problem.

Both of them are academicians.

Li Mingzhao said in a low voice:
"And he's the youngest in the country."

Upon hearing this, Yu Dazhang suddenly felt a heavy weight on his shoulders, as if he were carrying a mountain.

What a joke!
Two academicians!
And there are two of them.

There are two types of academicians: academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering.

Regardless of the type, they can all be considered national treasures.

A dual academician is a scientist who holds two titles simultaneously, and such individuals are extremely rare nationwide.

What exactly is being researched here?

Looking at the various instruments in the experimental hall, Yu Dazhang was filled with questions.

No wonder it attracted top foreign agents; these two academicians alone were enough to drive those agents crazy.

After standing in the experimental hall for a while, Yu Dazhang turned to Li Mingzhao and said:

"I want to go and see the place where you fought before."

On his first day, he always needs to familiarize himself with the situation so that he can get into work mode more quickly.

Once outside and in the car, Yu Dazhang asked:
"Are there members of your special operations team among the guards standing watch inside?"

"How did you know?" Li Mingzhao looked at him in surprise.
"Don't tell me you guessed it."

Yu Dazhang recalled for a moment, then smiled and said:

"The last door, the guard standing on the right, has been staring at me ever since I entered."

"What's interesting is that he wasn't looking directly at her, but glancing at her out of the corner of his eye. A proper security guard wouldn't have this habit."
