I Randomly Have a New Career Every Week

The next morning, Lin Yi called Mo Hongshan's men and had them send the two back.

After arranging these matters, Lin Yi returned to the Zhongwei Brigade.

The research staff had already moved into the new research institute.

It was located next to the Zhongwei Brigade compound, and the surrounding area had been isolated. In the future, it would be connected to the Zhongwei Brigade's compound wall.

The pressure on the four groups was much less. During the day, they would all gather around, and their state was relatively relaxed.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Yi called the people from Group One together for a small meeting.

"How has it been recently? Have you encountered any difficult problems?"

"It's been fine, but I've been so tense that I'm a little neurasthenic," Zhang Chaoyue said.

"This mission may continue for some time, but now that they've all moved here, your mission intensity won't be so great. Later, we may reschedule shifts to give you time off to rest in rotation, but we'll have to wait until things stabilize."

"Now that the first phase of the research mission is over, we've entered the second phase. In a few months, there may be new results, and we'll be busy again," Zhao Yunhu said.

"It might be better then, since we'll be doing research at the base, and the data will be transmitted in real-time, unless they don't want their lives. In short, the future intensity won't be so great," Lin Yi said.

"But you can't let your guard down now. In addition to the mission, you must also improve your strength. I have a feeling that we may be landing on the island soon."

"Brother Lin, have you heard something?" Luo Qi asked.

"No, it's just a feeling. And even if we don't land on the island, there will be new relics appearing, waiting for us to explore. So now, improving your strength is the real deal."

"Got it."

Creak—

The office door was knocked, and Tao Cheng stood at the door and said, "Yulu is back, let's go to the office for a meeting."

"Okay."

Lin Yi got up and left, following Tao Cheng to Liu Hong's office.

At this time, she and Ning Che were sitting in the office.

After not seeing her for many days, Qiu Yulu had gotten a lot darker, but her overall condition was still good. The muscles and lines of her arms seemed to have become more obvious.

"Has it been smooth sailing recently? Have you encountered any difficult problems?" Lin Yi asked.

"I can only say it's been okay."

A hint of fatigue appeared on Qiu Yulu's face.

"I feel like someone may have noticed us, but we shouldn't have been exposed yet," Qiu Yulu said.

"Based on these reasons, our actions have become extra cautious recently, and the progress has been much slower."

"Are there any usable clues?" Lin Yi asked.

"The only clue is the author of that book. He's now missing, and we don't know where he's gone."

"Are you sure he's missing?"

Qiu Yulu had previously sent back news about this, saying that there had been no trace of him.

At first, they only thought they couldn't contact him and didn't think about other possibilities.

Now it seemed that things might be more complicated than they had imagined.

Ning Che thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "In the Golden Chair mission, we proceeded very smoothly and didn't encounter any obstacles. This may also indicate a certain problem. Maybe other organizations knew about this information, which is why we were able to complete the mission so easily."

After listening to their analysis, Liu Hong didn't speak but looked at Lin Yi.

"What are your thoughts?"

"There is that possibility, but I think it's unlikely," Lin Yi said.

"The Golden Chair involves the Ailao Mountains and the African ruins, but the information about these two places is extremely confidential. I don't quite believe they could know about these two places. I think there might be a problem somewhere, or that our information is all wrong, leading us in the wrong direction, which is why we haven't made any progress."

After listening to what Lin Yi said, everyone felt it made sense.

For them, if it was just the wrong direction, it wasn't a big problem. They just needed to find a new direction.

If the author had been kidnapped, the problem might be bigger.

"But there are only so many clues at the moment. If we want to analyze other directions, it's actually quite difficult," Qiu Yulu said.

Everyone fell silent. The clues had all stalled here.

"Why don't we go back to the ruins and look for other clues, or study the book again? Maybe we'll find something new," Tao Cheng said.

"But the problem now is that the author of the book is missing. The farmer and the pawnshop owner each have their own story. All the clues are now chaotic, and we don't know where to start."

Leaning back on the sofa, Lin Yi said,

"Let's not be too anxious. Our progress is stuck here, and I believe other organizations are the same. So we can't panic, or we'll lose our composure and won't be able to do anything."

Lin Yi's words served as a tranquilizer for the others.

Everyone calmed down.

"Then what we can do now is secretly investigate where the author has gone," Ning Che said.

"But the problem is, if the author is dead, it's useless to investigate," Tao Cheng said.

"Then let's split into three groups to investigate the African ruins, the Ailao Mountains, and the farmer and the pawnshop owner. There must be clues on these people. Anyway, everyone is stuck here, so let's be patient. Maybe we'll find a clue someday," Ning Che said.

"That's all we can do now."

The content of the small meeting of several people focused on how to collect more clues, and it lasted for more than two hours.

At noon, the four of them went to eat together and chatted for a while, but there were still no good methods. They could only maintain the status quo and then go to other places to collect clues.

"Xiao Yi, you haven't forgotten what I told you before, have you?"

"You mean the national recruitment?"

Tao Cheng nodded, "Those people have already gathered at the training base in the suburbs. They just finished their physical examinations this morning, and the tests will begin this afternoon. Do you want to go take a look?"

"Sure, it's a good way to clear my head. Thinking about these things every day makes my head feel like it's going to explode."

"Then hurry up and clear it," Tao Cheng said with a smile.

"You have a good eye for talent. Try to pick out some good seedlings."
