Chapter 41 - 41 Hao Meng's Admission
41 Hao Meng’s Admission
Central City, Central University.
Laboratory 1 of the School of Life Sciences.
Hao Meng walked out of the laboratory in a white lab coat and white gloves.
When she arrived at the office, a tall man was standing inside. He was nearly 1.9 meters tall and had a wide and well-proportioned body.
Although the man had black hair, black eyes, and yellow skin, he had deep eye sockets, a high nose bridge, and naturally curly hair. He had the unique charm of a mixed-race.
“Why are you looking for me? I’ve said it before, I’m very busy these days, so don’t disturb me unless it’s important.”
Hao Meng’s voice was cold and her face was expressionless. She was like an ice mountain.
The man bowed slightly and stared at Hao Meng. He didn’t hide the burning love in his eyes as he spoke quickly.
“Director, there’s an emergency in the MieIn Federation. Our team there is not sure of what to do, so we wanted to inform you first.”
Hao Meng’s tone was flat like a machine, without any fluctuations. “You’ve already wasted 23 seconds.”
The man understood and quickly said, ” A world boundary has appeared in the MieIn Federation. We don’t know if it’s POI (insect plague) or not. The world boundary is still growing and we don’t know when it will stabilize.”
“Observe closely and bide our time.”
Hearing Hao Meng’s answer, the man seemed to be slightly dissatisfied. He gathered his courage and said loudly, “If it were overseas, with the strength of our Heretic Research Institute and the sales of the awakening potion, we could have easily become a super-rich consortium. We might even be able to influence the election of the mien Federation, the strongest country in the world.
We are free to explore vast world abroad and do whatever we want. It’s ten thousand times better than you being trapped in this country and being restricted by others!”
Hao Meng’s expression remained calm as she replied, “You’re finally not using foreign language when you speak. You’ve wasted another 87 seconds of my time. If you don’t want to do this, you can quit at any time.”
“Although you have the appearance of a mixed blood, you’re from Yunmeng Kingdom. Don’t think that you can forget your roots just because you grew up abroad.”
After Hao Meng finished speaking, she ignored him and walked straight back to the laboratory.
Every step that Hao Meng took seemed to be precisely measured. The size of each step was exactly the same, and the distance of her arm swing was exactly the same.
She was like a sophisticated and precise robot.
After Hao Meng left, the man looked extremely depressed. He raised his fist, as if he wanted to smash something.
Then, he remembered that this was Hao Meng’s office, so he held back.
A woman in black appeared out of thin air. She had thin eyebrows, a small face, and her lips appeared to be painted with rouge. Her eyes were not big, but her facial features were extremely beautiful when matched together.
When the man saw who it was, he seemed to have found someone to talk to.
“Mo Yu, did you hear what I just said? Did I say anything wrong?”
“I’m Mo Yun,” the woman smiled.
The man’s expression froze, and he said embarrassedly, “I’m sorry, you twin sisters look exactly the same. I’ve got the wrong person. Mo Yun, I thought you preferred to wear red? Why are you wearing black like Mo Yu today?”
“Black clothes make you look thinner. In the future, I’ll wear black clothes and Mo Yu will wear white clothes. This way, our figures will look almost the same.”
The man was speechless. In his eyes, the twin sisters looked exactly the same. He couldn’t tell who looked fatter or thinner.
He was just about to continue to pour out his grievances when Mo Yun spoke first.
“Wu Yingxiong, you talk too much. If you want to die, you can continue.”
Wu Yingxiong’s expression changed as he shouted, “I told you not to call me by my full name! Damn it, the story of The Deer and the Cauldron would be the death of me! You can call me little Wu, Mr. Wu, or by my English name!”
Mo Yun smiled, “Alright, Kris!”
Wu Yingxiong, “…”
“I changed my English name. I’m now called Bear. It’s simple and easy to remember.”
Seeing Wu Yingxiong’s lack of temper, Mo Yun stopped joking and said seriously, “I advise you to put away your feelings for the director. You haven’t even seen the director’s tender mode. Your one-sided love is destined to be a tragedy and will cause unnecessary misunderstandings.”
“As for the director’s decision, with your nut-sized brain, just don’t doubt anything she says.”
Mo Yun explained as she saw that Wu Yingxiong had lowered his head, not willing to listen to her advice.
“Although you’ve been following us, you’re a careless person and don’t even know our director’s cultivation path. She is a spiritual-type special ability user who invented a self-hypnotizing cultivation method without anyone’s guidance.”
“She used her extremely strong spiritual power to hypnotize her actions into many modes.”
“She has always been meeting you in smart mode.”
“In this mode, the director’s computing and scientific research abilities are enhanced by a terrifying amount, but she will not have any emotions, and every word and action of hers will be as precise as a machine.”
“What’s the tender mode like?” Wu Yingxiong asked curiously.
“The tender mode is just a name that Mo Yu and I came up with in private. There is actually no such mode. The tender mode is the director’s original personality.”
“The director’s original personality is shy, timid, gentle, and cute. She is very kind to people, so we called it the tender mode.”
“Also, due to the influence of the hypnosis, the director usually suppresses her feelings. Once she returns to her original form, her feelings will be even stronger. Because of that, once she has feelings for someone, it’s hard for her to hide them.”
Wu Yingxiong’s eyes lit up as he said with a look of longing, “If the director falls in love with me, does this mean that will she be loyal to me forever? The tender mode is really something to look forward to!”
Mo Yun was speechless. This Wu Yingxiong was handsome, but he had a pig’s brain. However, they were all good friends who had gone through thick and thin, so she had to warn him.
“Wu Yingxiong, I’m telling you clearly, before the director went abroad, and before she was awakened, she already had someone she liked. Your pursuit is destined to be fruitless. If you insist on acting on your own emotions, then I have nothing to say.”
With that, Mo Yun disappeared, leaving Wu Yingxiong alone in the office, his face full of pain.
At night, Hao Meng finished her experiment and returned to the dormitory arranged by the school.
Mo Yun held a stack of documents and said to Hao Meng, “Director, the international trade for the awakening potion has been settled. The specific conditions and agreements are here.”
Hao Meng picked up the information and quickly scanned through it. She memorized the contents in half a minute and nodded.
“Have you completed the procedures for me to be a teacher at Donglin City’s first strength school?”
“It’s done, but the officials have reminded us that principal Ning Shi is in charge of everything in the school at the moment. He shouldn’t object to you joining the school, but in principle, you need his consent.”
Hearing Ning Shi’s name, Hao Meng’s calm face fluctuated for a moment, but then she calmed down again.
Mo Yun saw all of this, but she was a little confused.
“Inspector, since you like Ning Shi, why don’t you just confess to him? There’s no need to be so secretive and hide your identity.”
Hao Meng logged out of smart mode. She lowered her head. Blushing, she said in a low voice, “I’m now the head of a cult organization. Although I’m cooperating with the state, I’m still strictly guarded by the state. If I get together with Ning Shi, it will have a bad influence on him.”
“Shitou is an upright man. If he knew that I’m the director of the Heretic Research Institute, he’d definitely cut off all ties with me.”
Mo Yun was speechless. No matter how powerful a woman was, after falling in love, their minds would not be normal.
“Ever since our resistance was successful and we took control of the Heretic Research Institute, we’ve never done anything evil. The human experiments you’ve done before were all done under coercion.”
“The officials are only on guard against us because of the Heretic Research Institute’s bad reputation.”
Hao Meng didn’t continue talking about this topic and continued, “There’s another more important reason.”
“The hypnotism technique that I’m practicing requires an anchor point of faith. Otherwise, it’s very easy to get lost and become an emotionless thinking machine.”
“Back then, my entire family was captured by the Heretic Research Institute to be researchers. My parents were killed because they were unwilling to do human experiments.”
“In my despair, I hypnotized myself and burst forth with powerful scientific research abilities, thus surviving until now.”
“However, the mind and the brain are forbidden fields that humans have rarely set foot in. It is very dangerous to hypnotize myself, and I almost lost myself several times.”
“After a few attempts, I realized that I have to find someone I care about as an anchor. As long as I have a strong enough obsession with him, I can easily wake up after each hypnosis.”
“Why did you choose Ning Shi as the anchor point?” Mo Yun continued to ask.
Hao Meng’s face instantly turned red. She easily got embarrassed as she had returned to her original timid and shy self.
“At that time, my parents were both dead and I was alone abroad. I had no family or friends. When I thought about my feelings, I only secretly liked Shitou in my third year of junior high.”
Mo Yun was shocked. She said nosily, “As expected of our mighty director. You already knew how to love at such a young age.”
Hao Meng rubbed her palms together, feeling a little embarrassed.
“I’ve been much smarter than ordinary people since I was young, and I’ve matured much earlier emotionally.”
“At that time, I skipped a grade, so I was young and my grades were good. Shitou was always helping me, and his grades were good too. We had a lot of common topics.”
“You were so young, Ning Shi probably treated you as a little sister at that time, right?”
Hao Meng nodded. Mo Yun was even more speechless. Her mighty director was actually in a one-sided love.
“That is to say, if principal Ning Shi has a falling out with you, you will lose your anchor point of faith. When you enter hypnosis again, you will lose yourself and become an emotionless machine.”
Mo Yun instantly understood. She suddenly said, “Director, why don’t we go back abroad? Distance makes beauty. As long as you don’t have too many interactions, you and Ning Shi won’t have any fall outs.”
Hao Meng shook her head. “I’d rather get lost in my hypnosis than leave.”
Hao Meng switched back to smart mode and spoke coldly, “There’s no need to argue about staying here or going abroad. Wu Yingxiong is short-sighted, so there’s no need to listen to him.”
“The world had changed drastically, and everyone has become a chess piece on a chessboard. Only the Yunmeng Kingdom could achieve the final victory in this chaos.”
“Just look at the MieIn Federation that Wu Yingxiong constantly brags about, they’re having a hard time dealing with just one insect plague at the world boundary. After all, it’s a nouveau riche country that has only been established for 200 years. Compared to the Yunmeng country with a long history, the MieIn Federation is just a child.”
“I returned to the country with great difficulty and established a relationship with the government in order to fight for a chance of survival for everyone. If Wu Yingxiong really likes to live abroad, then let him be.”
