Chapter 1510: Such A Coincidence
General Ji was worried that Huo Shaoheng wouldn’t care about anything else and would run to the other side to die.
“Agreed!”
“Stay and help General Ji with official business!”
The other members of the standing committee in the meeting room expressed their agreement.
They knew that Huo Shaoheng was in the parallel universe. No one would agree to send their Huo Shaoheng to his death.
Even though Huo Shaoheng was burning with anxiety, his expression remained the same. Faced with the unanimous agreement of the seven members of the standing committee, he calmly replied, “Yes, Chief.”
After the meeting, Song Jinning looked at Huo Shaoheng worriedly and said in a low voice, “Don’t worry, I’ll continue to think of a way. However, if Huo Shaoheng is in the parallel universe, you definitely can’t go there.”
Going there was equivalent to sending himself to his death.
Song Jinning was a senior high-energy physicist. After hearing General He Chengjian mention the principle of parallel space physics in the video, her intuition told her that the theory was completely valid.
The micro-level of parallel space was very similar to the case of positive and negative particles.
Therefore, at the macro level, it was very likely that the corresponding objects in the two spaces also had the properties of positive and negative particles.
However, if they appeared at the same time and space, they would be annihilated at the same time, which was also death.
Huo Shaoheng didn’t know how to deal with this problem.
If there really was another Huo Shaoheng on the other side, and if the situation shown in the video was real, then him going there means his demise.
Huo Shaoheng pondered for a long time and said, “Can you verify this theory first? Without hurting anyone?”
Song Jinning rubbed her temples and said with a headache, “They’re monitoring us right now. I have to think of a way to bypass their surveillance before I make a fuss.”
“And…” she paused. “This kind of experiment consumes a lot of energy, so I can’t carry out too many meaningless experiments.”
She hadn’t expected that just when they thought there had been a huge breakthrough in magnetic field technology, there would be a new problem in front of them.
Song Jinning wasn’t afraid of these obstacles on the road to scientific research.
However, to solve the problem, she needed time.
She didn’t know how long it would take this time.
After everyone had left, General Ji brought Huo Shaoheng back to his study.
“Shaoheng, sit.” General Ji pointed to the sofa in his study and said, “Actually, there’s still one minute of the video that I haven’t released yet.”
Huo Shaoheng:” …”
“… I don’t understand what you mean.” Huo Shaoheng didn’t know what was going on, but he was a little nervous.
He put his hand on the armrest of the sofa and slowly sat down.
His expression was grave, and not as calm as usual.
General Ji sighed and turned on the original video. “You watch it yourself. I’m going out for a smoke.”
After General Ji left, Huo Shaoheng was left alone in the study.
Huo Shaoheng sat quietly on the sofa and watched the video replay one by one until the last minute, he heard the person called He Chengjian say, “Also, Gu Nianzhi is living very well with us. This is her home. She will marry my son. On our side, no woman will be more honorable and happier than her.”
“Tell your subordinate, Huo Shaoheng, to give up.”
What followed was a series of photos and videos of Gu Nianzhi and He Zhichu.
On the hot air balloon, she was with a child and He Zhichu, like a family of three.
The camera changed and appeared in a living room. Gu Nianzhi leaned her head on He Zhichu’s shoulder. He Zhichu’s eyes sparkled with joy as he reached out and hugged Gu Nianzhi’s shoulder even tighter.
..
After the nine-minute video call ended, Huo Shaoheng sat stiffly on the sofa and was unable to speak for a long time.
The only thing he could be happy about was that she was doing quite well over there.
However, the anxiety and uneasiness in his heart didn’t lessen.
What was he going to do?
Was Huo Shaoheng there?
..
He Chengjian breathed a sigh of relief after issuing a warning to the world on the other side.
This matter had finally been resolved satisfactorily.
He no longer had to worry about the other world causing trouble.
Moreover, even if they were able to open the passage at all costs, the energy consumption was unimaginable.
In the past few years, with their technological capabilities and the strength of the nation, they had opened the passage less than ten times, and the energy had almost been used up.
Of course, the last time they had brought Gu Nianzhi back, they had used up too much energy, so much so that even if they added up all the previous times, they wouldn’t have used up as much energy as this time.
Otherwise, their energy wouldn’t have been depleted so quickly.
He Chengjian was also a little uneasy. He changed another group of people to investigate the problem of the magnetic field’s energy, to see if they had come to the same conclusion.
After sitting down and taking a sip of coffee, he heard his internal phone ring.
“General He, we have received news that Dresden, an employee of the United States Department of Homeland Security, suddenly left the United States with important information. He took a plane to H City of the Huaxia Empire and has entered the country.”
As He Chengjian listened to their briefing, he called his personal secretary over. “Where’s Zhichu? Have you seen him?”
“Major General He has gone to C City and is on his way back.” His personal secretary knew that He Chengjian cared about his son the most, so he kept a close watch on He Zhichu’s movements so that he could deal with his boss’s continuous questioning.
He Chengjian looked at his watch. “I’ll go to a meeting first. When he comes back, tell him to come directly to the secret meeting room.”
..
He Zhichu celebrated Gu Nianzhi’s birthday in advance and took a special plane back to the imperial capital.
As soon as he got off the plane, he was taken directly from the airport by a military vehicle to the secret meeting room at the headquarters of the military.
Here, the 10 members of the military’s Supreme Council standing committee were having a meeting.
He Zhichu was called in by them and assigned work to him.
“We received top-secret news from our sources in the United States. Dresden, an employee of the United States Department of Homeland Security, suddenly took a long leave of absence from Hawaii for medical reasons. We just found out that he has entered our country and is heading to H City.”
“It is reported that he has very important information on him, which has a lot to do with our national security.”
“Now, the CIA has issued a secret order to kill him at all costs and retrieve all the information that he has taken away.”
“The Committee of State Security (KGB) of the Soviet Union wants to bring him to the Soviet Union.”
“Major General He, this time, you will cooperate with the KGB of the Soviet Union to fight against the CIA of the United States.”
“The American intelligence network that has been operating in H City for many years is now in full swing.”
He Zhichu had just gotten off the plane when he received such a mission. He asked in surprise, “… to H City?”
This was such a coincidence. Gu Nianzhi was also going to H City the day after tomorrow.
However, He Zhichu was only thinking about it.
This time, he was going to H City to carry out a mission. It was impossible for him to meet Gu Nianzhi in private.
However, when he thought about how he would be in the same city as her on her birthday, enjoying the same sea breeze, his mood improved. He said calmly, “We will definitely stop their actions.”
He Chengjian looked at him with gratification. “First of all, this is your first mission since you returned to the team. You must be very careful.”
“Yes, sir.” He Zhichu said casually, “The committee of State Security (KGB) of the Soviet Union will also go to H City?”
“No, they won’t go to H City. They will wait for you in M City.”
“Your mission is to escort this person from H City to M City and let the KGB take over.”
A top-secret document was placed in front of He Zhichu. “You have to remember to contact the KGB.”
Their meeting was held from afternoon to night until the sky was full of stars.
The initial plan had already been formulated. He Zhichu went back to pick his most elite men to carry out this secret mission.
…
Gu Nianzhi had finally waited for the day when she would board the plane to H City.
She was wearing a sportswear that was easy to travel in, and she dragged a small LV suitcase to the airport.
When she was checking in at the boarding gate, Gu Nianzhi actually saw Bai Shuang, who was also wearing a sportswear!
This flight was to H City, so Bai Shuang was going to H City as well?
Gu Nianzhi couldn’t help walking over and poking her on the back. She smiled and said, “Bai Shuang?”
Bai Shuang, who was practicing her spoken English and listening skills with her headphones on, was shocked. She turned around and saw Gu Nianzhi. She quickly laughed and patted her chest. “How come it’s you, Miss Gu? What a coincidence.”
The two of them had met once at the Hilton Hotel’s underground bar.
Gu Nianzhi giggled. “Yes, what a coincidence. Miss Bai, are you going to H City?”
“Yes,” Bai Shuang said readily. “Our company is a translation company. I graduated from the Foreign Language Institute. The company gave me a job as a freelance translator for an American in H City.”
Gu Nianzhi nodded. “I see. We’re going to H City for a meeting. Do you have time to contact us?”
She made a phone call.
Bai Shuang nodded with a smile. “Sure. Do you have any other methods of contact other than your phone number?”
The two of them exchanged contact information on their social media accounts, and soon it was Gu Nianzhi’s turn to board the plane.
Only then did Bai Shuang realize that Gu Nianzhi had a first-class ticket in her hand and could board the plane first.
She didn’t think much of it and watching as she walked through the gate first, she waved at her with a smile.
Upon boarding the plane, Gu Nianzhi realized that among the three people invited to the law firm, she was the only one who had a first-class ticket, while Jin Dazhuang and Xiao Zhang were both in business class.
Most of the people in the first-class cabin were executives from the Lu Corporation, as well as partners and barristers from the four major law firms. She was a little embarrassed.
She was dawdling about wanting to change her flight ticket to business class.
However, not long after she stood up, Lu Yuan walked over with Zhao Liangze and greeted her with a smile. “Lawyer Gu? Why aren’t you sitting down? Can’t you find a seat?”
Gu Nianzhi said embarrassingly, “… Is there a mistake? I’m the only one in first class, and my boss and colleagues are all in business class…”
Lu Yuan was speechless for a moment, but he looked at the seat in her hand and said quietly, “Maybe the tourism department booked the wrong seat. Just sit anywhere you want. It’s only two hours.”
With that said, Gu Nianzhi felt like she was making a mountain out of a molehill if she continued to insist.
She sat down embarrassingly and turned to look at the scenery outside the window.
Not long after, a well-dressed man sat down in the seat next to her. He even accosted her, “Pretty girl, are you traveling alone?”
Gu Nianzhi :”…”
She didn’t want to talk to him, so she pretended not to hear him and didn’t look back.
“Pretty lady, you’re putting on quite a show…” The man didn’t give up. He closed the gap between the two of them and moved closer to her.
Gu Nianzhi turned her head, but he could see her delicate and fair neck. She leaned to the side, and her movements made her breasts, waist, and slender waist stand out. Her long legs were especially seductive.
The man’s burning gaze constantly swept across Gu Nianzhi’s chest, waist, and hips.
Gu Nianzhi couldn’t help it. She was just about to teach this man a lesson when she suddenly heard a cold and slightly mocking voice from the aisle beside their seats.
“Son of a b * tch, are you blind, or did you not graduate from kindergarten? You can’t even see 12345ABCDE clearly? !”
Gu Nianzhi turned around in surprise and saw a tall and thin man with an extremely ordinary appearance fuming at the man who was sitting next to her.
