Chapter 250 Silence
Yu Fu's expression turned ugly for a moment, then he laughed strangely.

How could she not know? Of course she knew.

So it turns out that the person I've been longing for is her.

"Oh, I know, it's you." Yu Fu smiled.

She thought she was about to let go, but now she feels she can't let go anymore. Fate is truly a strange thing.

In that instant, the two seemed even more certain of each other's identities.

An awkward silence seemed to spread.

Before long, Yu Fu was the first to make a move. She went over and picked up Qi Yun, seemingly intending to leave.

But before leaving, he said, "We are not from the same world, and we really shouldn't have crossed paths."

She said something nonsensical and then left.

Jiang Mian didn't understand what it meant at first.
She frowned, glanced at the messy bloodstains on the ground, and finally went to get something to clean it up.

As one of the researchers and a pharmacist, Yu Fu should have no problem treating the other wounds.

Jiang Mian frowned as she cleaned up the bloodstains.

I just hope that neither of them will come looking for her again.

The next day.

After all that commotion in the middle of the night, Jiang Mian looked unsurprisingly haggard when she got up, with dark circles under her eyes.

Even so, she still had to go to work at the research institute, and resentment began to rise within her.

What research? I'm not doing it anymore.

After Lin Yu arrived, she left with him; she couldn't stay in this place for another second.

Jiang Mian, unable to sleep, also thought about it. She didn't necessarily need to do research here. As long as there was a laboratory and mice, she could do research outside.

She can just announce it directly when the time comes, which would indirectly save those orcs who have been used as experimental subjects.

There's no need to stay here and study with them.

Jiang Mian thought about it more and more and felt that this made sense.

So before going to work, she said something to Rinyu on her personal terminal.

Jiang Mian: Lin Yu, I don't want to stay here anymore. Let's wait for you to come over and leave together.

Rin Yu quickly replied to the message.

Lin Yu: Mianmian, what's wrong?
The other party quickly noticed that Jiang Mian's emotions were a bit off.

Lin Yu: I'm on my way here quickly, don't worry. Tell me what's wrong, don't keep it to yourself.

Lin Yu: Tell me if you encounter any danger. I can control all the data-controllable machines on your side.

Jiang Mian originally wanted to tell Lin Yu that she was fine and that she had to go to work soon, so she couldn't bring her personal computer with her because the research institute would have detection equipment, and if it was detected, it might implicate others.

However, after seeing the messages Lin Yu sent, she paused slightly and asked, "Then can you make my personal computer undetectable? I wasn't planning on bringing it with me, but if you have a way, I can keep it with me and contact you anytime."

Lin Yu: Okay.

Lin Yu replied with two words, which immediately calmed Jiang Mian's heart.

Jiang Mian: Okay.

Rinyu: What happened?

Jiang Mian: I have to go to work now, I'm running late, I'll talk to you after get off work, it's hard to explain now. Lin Yu had no choice but to agree.

Jiang Mian took her personal computer to work at the research institute. Although her conversation with Lin Yu had improved her mood considerably, she still looked somewhat haggard, and the dark circles under her eyes were still quite pronounced.

Experimental body area.

Jiang Mian came over again to examine these experimental subjects, mainly to check their recovery from the last treatment and then to enter a new round of data.

However, this time Bai Xu didn't need her to input the data. He asked her to wait in the rest room until his junior research assistants finished inputting the data, and then she could check on the condition of the orc test subjects.

The others weren't as skilled at treating illnesses, so the task was handed over to Jiang Mian, since she was also a pharmacist and quite familiar with these matters.

So Jiang Mian started slacking off in the lounge, but she didn't dare take out her personal computer while slacking off. She just casually flipped through some books and materials in the lounge.

These are all data collected previously.

Bai Xu saw her flipping through the pages but didn't stop her. After all, if you want to do in-depth research, you can't just do superficial research.

However, noticing the dark circles under Jiang Mian's eyes, he asked with concern, "Bumian, what's wrong? Didn't you sleep well last night? Why are your eyes so dark?"

Jiang Mian paused slightly as she idly flipped through the documents, then nodded gently: "Mm."

They didn't say what happened last night.

Bai Xu assumed it was because of those military beastmen harassing her. He only found out about this now, but it seems those military beastmen have already been dealt with.

"I'm sorry, are you having trouble sleeping because of the orcs harassing you lately?" Bai Xu asked apologetically. "I only just found out about this. Don't worry, I've already spoken to the city lord. She'll issue a notice, and no foolish orcs will bother you anymore."

Jiang Mian's heart skipped a beat, thinking that Bai Xuxu was referring to the harassment she had suffered at the hands of the female beastman.

She remembered that Qiyun seemed to be with the city lord.

What will happen to Qi Yun if she comes to see the city lord without his knowledge?

"You...you know?" Jiang Mian had a feeling that if the city lord knew, she would be in an even worse situation here. Her heart started racing, and her eyebrows twitched violently.

"Yes." Bai Xu's affirmative voice sent a chill down Jiang Mian's spine.

If Bai Xu knows, then the city lord must know too.

How could the city lord tolerate being cuckolded?
Jiang Mian felt she really couldn't stay any longer; her heart was pounding in her throat.

“Yes, those military beasts tortured a human researcher to death, and now they’re harassing you. It’s not right not to deal with them.” Bai Xu continued, “You should know that human researcher too. He’s the one you had a conflict with the other day. I think his name is Jiang Yu.”

Jiang Mian's tense mood relaxed after hearing these words.

A false alarm.

So, the orc harassment Bai Xu mentioned was referring to the harassment by those few military beasts.

She thought she knew that.

If Bai Xu doesn't know this now, it means the city lord doesn't know either, so she can continue to live for a few more days.

When Jiang Mian heard the news of Jiang Yu's death, she was surprisingly calm.

"Yes, thank you." Jiang Mian wiped away non-existent cold sweat from her forehead and thanked Bai Xu.

After all, the harassment from those military beasts was quite annoying, and it wouldn't be good if they kept coming to bother her.

"Brother Bai, something terrible has happened! The orcs have gone berserk!"

An anxious voice suddenly burst in.
