Chapter 28 Getting Closer to Science

Yunyang felt he had made a profit, and so did Mengyi.

Although this feeling is based on the differences in perception between the two parties.

But in a way, this is a win-win situation.

At least Yunyang was extremely satisfied.

Where can an ordinary person legally earn so much money?

Five million! That's five red-quality opportunities!

If a single red-quality opportunity can drastically change one's strength, what would five red opportunities be like?

I wouldn't even dare to dream of it!

Yunyang couldn't wait to complete this task and then buy the red opportunity to become stronger.

Meng Yi quickly coordinated with all parties and personally came to pick up Yunyang and Gu Meng on the third day.

However, Yunyang had one thing to complain about: the car that came to pick him up...

"Is the 'Approaching Science' sign on this bread cart for real?"

Standing at the school gate, Yunyang looked at the bread truck, which was full of flaws, and complained.

"What's wrong?"

Meng Yi, who got out of the passenger seat, asked.

"Did you drive this car from the TV station?"

"Is it possible that we are actually people from the TV station?"

"ha?"

Meng Yi opened the door of the van and saw two men and women sitting inside, each carrying a long-range camera. Their skin was dark and rough, clearly the result of years of working in the wild.

"Otherwise, how do you think the people in the Psychic Bureau's Psychic Investigation Division conduct investigations and explanations of those supernatural phenomena in such an open and aboveboard manner?" Meng Yi said with a smile.

Could it be?

"That's right." Meng Yi nodded. "Just like you imagined."

"Approaching Science" was an early science channel program that explored and solved mysterious events.

They often use cryptic phrases like "However, something unexpected happened" or "Things are far more complicated than they seem" to whet the audience's appetite, but the truth in the end is just an ordinary thing.

For example, "The older sister who starved for five years and seemed to be practicing fasting was actually mentally ill and forgot she had ever eaten," or "A village with electricity everywhere, but it turned out the test meter was broken."

Although the program is quite abstract, it has successfully played a role in breaking down feudal superstitions and popularizing science to a certain extent.

But now it seems that it might not all be fake!

"Wait a minute." Yunyang rubbed his temples. "So, you all use the guise of 'approaching science' to investigate supernatural events, and then fabricate a 'very scientific' truth about them?"

This is ruining my childhood!

"Let's split it 30/70," Meng Yi said with a smile. "Actually, only 30% are real supernatural events. Suppressing these supernatural events will most likely only backfire, so why not make a show like this to cover up the truth while also entertaining the public?"

"6".

Yunyang gave this operation the most sincere evaluation.

Bending down to get in the car, Yunyang discovered that the interior was quite impressive. Although the exterior looked like an ordinary, dilapidated van, the interior was entirely made of genuine leather. In addition, it was equipped with a car screen, a small refrigerator, and other in-car electrical appliances.

This isn't a van; it's clearly a luxury car disguised as a van!

"drive."

After Yunyang and Gu Meng were seated, Meng Yi waved his hand, and a man in a suit who looked like a bodyguard started the van.

"Waaah~"

When the bread truck started, it even made a roaring sound like a sports car!

Seemingly noticing the surprise in Yunyang's eyes, a middle-aged man carrying a camera bag raised an eyebrow at Yunyang. "The interior of this car is quite nice, isn't it?"

"Um, it looks pretty good."

"This car isn't just good at interiors; its performance is even more impressive: a 4.0-liter V8 engine, four-wheel drive, continuously variable transmission, twin turbochargers. What do you think? Isn't this car well-modified?"

"Tsk, just shut up."

A short-haired, capable-looking woman with strong arms, sitting in the back seat, suddenly retorted, "You sold your new house just to modify this car! It makes me angry just thinking about it!"

The middle-aged man scratched his head awkwardly. "Honey, in our industry where we deal with supernatural forces, the most important thing is the ability to escape when danger comes! Look at that expedition last year, if it weren't for this car, we might not have been able to escape from that bear demon."

"Hmph." The eldest sister snorted coldly, but since what the uncle said was true, she did not refute it.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Meng Yi turned around and laughed, "You two are really like Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai, one willing to hit and the other willing to be hit, one willing to be scolded and the other truly willing to spend money for the other."

"Ahem!" The middle-aged man coughed twice. "Miss Meng, please don't talk nonsense. I, Sun, am not a masochist."

"Exactly!" said the woman in the back row, glaring at the man. "I want to beat this spendthrift to death!"

"Hehe." Meng Yi smiled slightly, not refuting, and looked at Yun Yang and Gu Meng, "Let me introduce you. These two are Sun Guochang and Du Yuming from the Spiritual Power Investigation Department of Jingu City. They will be working with us on this mission."

"Didn't you say there would only be three of us on this mission?" Yunyang asked, puzzled.

"Originally, it was just the three of us, but the Department of Spiritual Energy Research is taking this special supernatural phenomenon very seriously, so they want us to bring two testing personnel along to record the values ​​of the spiritual energy fluctuations."

"But……"

Yunyang frowned slightly. Supernatural events are not like a picnic. The last Rat King incident showed how dangerous such things are.

Yunyang learned from Li Zhong and Gu Meng that most of the people in the Spiritual Power Investigation Department had awakened their spiritual power, but their spiritual power was very weak, and their combat strength was not even up to the rank of soldier.

You could only say he's a little better than the average person.

Two more people mean two more points of danger.

"Don't worry." Seeing Yunyang's concerns, Mengyi explained, "Brother Sun and Sister Du are not weaklings. They are a platoon and a private, respectively. They were seriously injured in a mission and later retired from the front line to join the reconnaissance department."

Sun Guochang patted Yunyang on the shoulder, "Brother, I used to be a top-notch frontline fighter! I've experienced no fewer than ten supernatural battles, big and small, that have occurred in Yunmeng Province! Little brother, even though you're a general-level expert, you can't underestimate us seniors!"

Du Yuming, sitting in the back seat, nodded. "Yes, we won't be a burden in terms of combat."

"I'm sorry." Yunyang wasn't lacking in emotional intelligence. Since the two of them had said that, Yunyang quickly conceded, cupping his hands in a fist and palm salute, saying, "I didn't mean anything by it, but this is a matter of safety, so we have to be careful."

"Hey! What are you apologizing for?" Sun Guochang put his arm around Yunyang's shoulder. "Uncle isn't a petty person. You just awakened your spiritual power and haven't been on many missions yet, so it's normal for me to worry."

Actually, you don't need to worry at all. Look at our team's lineup. With Miss Meng, a near-general-level Awakened, leading the team, plus my wife, a soldier-level, Miss Gu and I, two sergeants-level, and you, a general-level combatant, bringing up the rear, this lineup is more than capable of handling S-rank missions!

"Shut your jinxed mouth!" Du Yuming slapped Sun Guochang. "It was the same last time. It was supposed to be a regular C-rank mission, but you, with your jinxed mouth, talked nonsense, and we ended up encountering enemies that you only encounter in A-rank missions!"

"That was an accident, an accident, but I'm certain that this mission, though it seems grand in scale, is nothing but a facade!"

"I hope so."
