Chapter 88: The Pearl Is Covered in Dust but Its Brilliance Cannot Be Obscured (40)

There is no airport in Tong County, so it is more convenient to take the train to Kyoto from here.

And with today's aerospace technology, although transportation on the ground is a bit more troublesome, it is at least safer in comparison.

Shen Minghuan had a final phone call with General Rice and then destroyed the equipment.

Admiral Rice told him mysteriously, "Shen, there will be someone in Kyoto to cooperate with you. You will know who it is when the time comes. I wish you all the best, sir. See you in country M."

Out of curiosity, Shen Minghuan decided to cooperate with them a little.

Soon it was time to set off, and Fang Peng helped Shen Minghuan pack his luggage.

There's nothing I can do about it, it seems like this man only packed a box of books and nothing else.

However, Fang Peng spent a long time picking and choosing, but he was unable to sort out more things belonging to "Shen Minghuan".

The original owner didn't bring many personal items with him when he came. Later, when Shen Minghuan moved into the Yun family, Grandma Yun prepared many things, and her only property was a few pieces of clothing.

Fang Peng was very frustrated, "Don't you have anything you are used to? Or do you have special requirements for food and clothing?"

Shen Minghuan thought for a while and said sincerely: "No."

The style and workmanship he likes must not be available in this world, and those requirements that he himself finds picky cannot be met now even if he thinks about it.

Fang Peng suddenly sighed, and the distress in his eyes seemed to overflow. He thought that this person might have put all his attention on scientific research, so much so that he was so indifferent to his own life.

Shen Minghuan took a step back in disgust, "Are you still going to keep busy... cleaning up?"

Fang Peng cheered up again: "It doesn't matter, it will be the same when we prepare in Kyoto."

If he still has a chance to follow Shen Minghuan by then, he will definitely choose carefully for this person and buy the best everything!

Shen Minghuan was noncommittal.

All the villagers came to see him off, and they were reluctant to stop all the way outside the village.

The students were all carrying small schoolbags with similar styles. They were quite excited at first, jumping up and down along the way, treating this as a large-scale autumn outing with their classmates.

It wasn't until the separation was approaching and I saw the sad faces of the parents that I finally felt sad.

They surrounded their parents, and even the strongest children had tears in their eyes.

"Dad, Mom, I will miss you."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Mom, I can't bear to leave you, can you come with me?"

The parents were also very sad. They pushed away the little carrots around them sadly, "Teacher Shen, please take care of yourself on the road. We will miss you."

"Come back often if you have the chance. The village is also your home. We will entertain you well whenever you come."

Grandma Yun took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, "Auntie, I'll leave the door to the room for you. Come back when you're tired."

Children: "..."

They had to stand there without crying, look at each other awkwardly with their fellow sufferers, then wipe away their tears and pretend that nothing happened.

Suddenly I’m not sad anymore. Damn adults, we can still live happily together with Teacher Shen in the future. I’m so mad at you!

Among the people traveling this time were two national treasure-level scientific research talents, as well as thirteen young pillars of the country, and there were a lot of people arranged to protect them along the way.

It seems that no matter how remote the place is, the station is always crowded and noisy, with people coming and going carrying large and small bags on their backs and walking in a hurry. Some people's faces are filled with the joy of returning home, and more people are longing for and uneasy about the distance. .

Fang Peng and others were dressed in plain clothes, each holding a child. They did not attract anyone's attention. At most, some people turned their heads and took a second look, sighing that some of the young people among them were really good-looking and had cute children. Follow their father. .

On the one hand, it was for safety reasons, but on the other hand, Professor Gu didn't like the so-called card game, so they actually kept a low profile on the road.

Even if separate carriages are specially arranged, it is because there are enough people.

Even so, the doors between the carriages are not blocked, and there is only a short aisle. Some people who have not purchased a seat or bed ticket will sit directly in the aisle.

I could hear the chatter and laughter coming from other carriages. From time to time, someone would pass through the middle door and borrow the passage. Occasionally, other passengers would poke their heads to say hello to them...

The specialness of the treat was diminished by the fact that it was just like any other carriage, at least in the eyes of the children, who were no different from anyone else in the carriage.

Only the soldiers responsible for protection were more vigilant. Even friendly greetings from others would make them nervous for a moment.

The children, who were traveling for the first time, were curious about all the scenery. They lined up after their own consultation, and were led by soldiers one by one to fill the hot water on the train. When they came back, they must hold the cup and say "Wow" loudly.

Gu Wenjing watched them gather together to discuss how to make hot water flow from the faucet, and smiled fondly.

Suddenly there was a burst of applause from the car in front, and the passengers clapped excitedly, their hands turning red and they didn't care.

Their excitement seemed to be due to the two young men sitting at the middle door, who apparently said something to create this crazy situation.

Shen Minghuan found that these two people looked very familiar.

When he went to Tongxian for the first time, he took his two children for breakfast. The two of them sat at adjacent tables in the restaurant.

At that time, they were holding a newspaper, their expressions were gloomy, full of humiliation and pain.

Now they also hold newspapers in their hands, but things on their faces are completely different from before. They are more excited, excited and crazy than the passengers around them.

Gu Wenjing noticed Shen Minghuan's gaze, and he explained with a smile: "Two days ago, our Chinese Kunpeng fighter made its debut and destroyed two J-country planes in the border airspace. I think they should be talking about this."

Shen Minghuan also smiled when he heard this, "It's a good thing."

"Minghuan, such an exciting good thing is brought by you, this is your credit."

Gu Wenjing looked at him with unreserved love and appreciation in his eyes, "Kunpeng, it's your idea."

Shen Minghuan quickly thought of the waste paper he used to fill the gift box. It was written casually on the first night he came here, but some of the details were difficult to do, so he didn't care after he finished writing.

"I didn't do anything." Shen Minghuan shook his head after reacting. It was unintentional, and all the work was done by Jiang Li's team. Before that, he didn't even know about it, let alone help.

The glory that completely belongs to Jiang Li and his team, even if it has a little relationship with him, it can't bear such heavy gratitude and boasting.

Even though Gu Wenjing was used to his modesty, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

He didn't argue too much, turned his head to look in the direction of the children, and said with a sigh: "Do you know? A month ago, we couldn't provide hot water on the train because we didn't have enough electricity."

"The conversion efficiency of the solar panels you gave is beyond our imagination. Now China has established a special factory. We plan to install them for free for people across the country."

He looked out the window, and the train was speeding through the wilderness, tunnels, and farmland.

"The first batch of growth liquid was taken to various parts of China for experiments with different plants. If all goes well, after this batch of crops is harvested, the growth liquid will be promoted to the whole country."

Gu Wenjing looked at the cheering people in the carriage in front, as if the smile would be contagious, and he couldn't help but curl up his mouth: "□□, is it called this name? Although it can't be circulated as a weapon, the control and use of electricity in it provides us with a lot of inspiration. These technologies are ahead of the world and are very precious wealth. We have reached cooperation with seven countries."

Finally, he looked at Shen Minghuan and raised his hand jokingly. Showing the ring he was wearing well, "Sometimes I wonder what's wrong with your brain. We have studied the design you gave us. It's cheap and we are currently preparing to equip all Chinese soldiers. In the future, it will be distributed to every Chinese."

Gu Wenjing was serious and almost pious: "Before winter, we will let every household use electricity; next autumn, we will give everyone a prosperous year with no worries about food and drink."

"And from this moment on, China will show our voice in the world."

There seemed to be stars in his eyes, as if he had seen a very beautiful and magnificent future not far away.

"Minghuan," Gu Wenjing said softly, "I'm very happy that China has you."

Shen Minghuan was silent for a moment. Gu Wenjing's temples were already white, but his eyes were enthusiastic, as if he had a vigorous power.

He suddenly smiled, his eyebrows curved, and replied softly: "I'm also very happy to be born in China."

This is his idea, and also "Shen Minghuan"'s.

*

Although the leaders wanted to meet Gu Wenjing, Shen Minghuan and others as soon as possible, they thought that they must be very tired after sitting on the train for three whole days, especially with a group of young children.

If they met in a hurry, even if they just said hello and left, it would affect their rest to some extent.

Perhaps China's concern is always so comprehensive. When treating its own people, even the most insignificant things will be done to perfection.

So the group was sent back home to rest first.

"Shen Minghuan" has a house left to him by his parents in Kyoto, but he has not lived in it for many years. When he was in school, he lived on campus most of the time. He occasionally lived in Jiang's house during holidays or festivals. After graduation, he went to Mutian Village.

The owner was not there, and the leaders did not want to let people go in and clean up directly. In addition, Jiang Li strongly requested, so Shen Minghuan was naturally sent back to Jiang's house.

Jiang Li's house was issued by the state. It was near the research institute and was guarded by layers to ensure the safety of these national treasures.

Naturally, Gu Wenjing also lived there.

The children had just arrived, and their accommodation was taken care of by the state. After considering various factors, they were arranged next to Jiang Li.

The group had the same destination, so they did not separate on the road.

When they got off the car, they saw Jiang Li and Feng Dinglan standing on tiptoe and looking forward to it. Next to them was Ji Wangchen who happened to "pass by", and the old grandfathers who were walking around, looking at the scenery, thinking... who often appeared in newspapers.

If you can't express your condolences to the work as a leader, can't you visit as a friend?

Everyone thought so in their hearts, and then looked at their colleagues around with contempt.

The excuse of walking/looking at the scenery in the middle of the day is really bad.

All the people were there. Except that the scene was not solemn, it seemed no different from the "leadership meeting" planned for the next day.

So do we need to go through the process of preparing for the first meeting tomorrow again? Ji Wangchen thought seriously.

*

Jiang Li never thought his house was small before, but today there were too many people coming, even Jiang Yiwen, the owner of the house, couldn't squeeze in and could only stand at the door.

The rough old man rubbed his hands, "Why don't we go to the office? It's quite big there."

Ji Wangchen held his forehead, well, it's still work after all.

Gu Wenjing nodded in agreement. He had too many things to say and didn't want to waste time.

Shen Minghuan didn't care. Fang Peng had been busy for him all the way. He rested well and was not very tired.

Only the children had a big question mark on their heads. Didn't they say they were going to rest?

Adults all over the world are really the same. They are creatures that change every day, except Teacher Shen.

The children looked at each other and saw the tolerance in each other's eyes. The adults were ignorant, so they, as children, had to bear more.

An old man stood beside Shen Minghuan at some point and said with a smile: "Do you think this place has changed a lot? I just came back and almost thought I was going the wrong way."

After the energy caught up, the surrounding electrical appliances increased day by day. The people living here are all scientists with strong hands-on skills. When there are new ideas, family members and colleagues are the best experience and research objects.

Shen Minghuan took a look and also greeted with a smile: "Professor Lin Sen."

The old man's eyes flashed with surprise, and soon he understood and said: "Did your teacher tell you? Tell me quickly, what does he usually say about me?"

Jiang Li, who was forced to squeeze to the periphery and was arguing, heard a few words and said loudly: "Don't wrongly accuse people, wooden, I always say good things about you."

"I have attended your class." Shen Minghuan explained with a smile.

"Oh, so it was you... who attended my class?" The tone of the second half of the sentence suddenly rose, and Professor Lin's eyes widened, "My last public lecture was six years ago."

How old was Shen Minghuan at that time.

Shen Minghuan hummed, "I have attended it."

Seeing that everyone around him turned to look at him, with half shock and half complexity in their eyes, he thought for a while and said: "I have also attended the classes of several professors."

The jubilant atmosphere suddenly condensed, and everyone gave Jiang Li a fierce look. Shen Minghuan actually showed his extraordinaryness so early, is Jiang Li blind?

If they had trained him since childhood, if they had realized Shen Minghuan's talent earlier, how much would he have grown up to now?

Thinking of this, he breathed a sigh of relief.

It was just a little bit, if Gu Wenjing had not gone to Tong County, if there was no library in Tong County, if they had not met there, if...

They almost missed this genius.

Gu Wenjing went to Tong County because he was assassinated. The professors have never thanked the United States so sincerely.

Thank you, spy, you are really good people.

The professors surrounded Shen Minghuan and talked about everything from advanced mathematics to quantum entanglement, and did not ignore the thirteen carrot heads who were queuing up behind him.

Some of them have grandchildren of similar age at home, and they are very skilled in teasing children: "We meet for the first time, how about Grandpa give you a gift? Do you want one? You can ask for it."

The children are very sensible. After they gathered together and whispered, Yun Gou'er was elected as the spokesperson: "Thank you, Grandpa, but no, we will buy it ourselves when we grow up."

Unexpectedly, this group of children seemed to have a specific goal. The professor asked curiously: "What is it?"

"Car! Small car! Big train!" The children said in unison, their eyebrows were flying, and their faces were full of "want".

The professors laughed, "Big train can't be given, but small car is still okay. What are you going to do after you have a car?"

The warmer answer is probably to take the teacher for a ride to see the scenery, or go back to Mutian Village to pick up their families.

However, the children are eager to try, their eyes are shining, and they said one word in a sonorous and powerful voice: "Dismantle!"

Zhao Jun has taken out his tools from his schoolbag, "When we dismantle it, we will know how the car is made."

"Then we can make a lot of cars." Zhou Dazhuang continued in unison.

Professors: "...Comrade Shen's educational philosophy is very novel, hahaha."

These children seem to be difficult to raise, and they always feel that it will cost a lot of money.

Some topics are not suitable for children to listen to. They were taken to visit the place where they lived, where they were protected by soldiers and people were arranged to take care of them.

The journey was not far, and the others walked to the huge conference hall, talking and laughing along the way, only Gu Wenjing's eyes were dazed.

He has repeated his experience of the door three times, and the others are still interested and keep asking for details.

It's not that I don't want to ask Shen Minghuan, but the story this person told is obviously not as exciting as Gu Wenjing's. When asked, he only said "nothing", or "it should be", which made the old people feel distressed and helpless.

Shen Minghuan is very self-aware. He also admitted that he has always been a genius with unparalleled talent in the world, but this does not mean that he likes to boast about what he has done.

He feels that there is a little shame.

The professors began to sigh as they listened, "Minghuan, you've suffered so much these years."

"Mutian Village is pretty good, not too hard." Shen Minghuan said sincerely.

The villagers treated him better than their own sons. Even though they were a little poor, they always supported him unconditionally with all their strength.

The professors hesitated to speak, and finally sighed, "Good boy."

They wanted to talk about the long years of obscurity, but this person only talked about Mutian Village. He probably didn't want them to know.

The past cannot be pursued, and the past cannot be changed. There is no use in mentioning it again except to add to people's worries.

——This person must have thought so, so he kept silent about the grievances in the past and continued to be his mediocre Shen Minghuan who had just recently come to his senses.

If they didn't know the truth, they would probably be deceived by him.

If they didn't know the truth, it might be a lot easier now.

If they don't know the truth, the Shen Minghuan who walked forward in the darkness will never be known.

This person doesn't care about their past, but they do.

"Ming Huan," after everyone entered the conference hall and the door was closed, Ji Wangchen said gently to him, "There is someone you should want to meet."

Shen Minghuan had just sat down and raised his head in confusion when he heard this.

Sitting on his left was Jiang Li, and on his right was Gu Wenjing. The other professors sat informally around them. Intentionally or unintentionally, Shen Minghuan was surrounded in the center.

From a distance, it looks like the alternation of the old and the new, the handover of responsibilities, and a silent coronation.

As if to indicate that from this moment on, Shen Minghuan is their chosen leader of the younger generation and the number one person in the Chinese scientific research community.

Du Xingwei saw this scene as soon as he entered the door.

Shen Minghuan sat tall and straight in the center of the group of scientific research leaders. Frankly speaking, his sitting posture was extremely upright, and his movements had an indescribable air. Even if he was not doing anything, he looked very pleasing to the eye.

but!

Du Xingwei had only one thought in his mind: Junior brother, how dare you?

He could understand that maybe the elders felt sorry for this man who had just returned from a remote village, but how could such politeness be taken seriously?

He winked at Shen Minghuan: Come on, stand up, sit on either side, don't sit in the middle door!

Shen Minghuan was confused: "Senior Brother Du?"

Jiang Li patted Shen Minghuan's shoulder reassuringly, "Xingwei, tell us what you told us that day, please say it again now."

Du Xingwei didn't know everything about Shen Minghuan. Although he was a little confused about what he saw before him, he also knew that it was not his place to ask, not to mention that he... was still guilty at the moment.

Du Xingwei was lost for a moment, then he nodded quickly and said, "Okay."

He didn't even dare to call him "teacher".

Du Xingwei went to find Jiang Li after answering the phone that day. He confessed everything, starting with the "betrayal" in Country M and ending with the "transaction" on the phone.

He found that the exposure was far less scary than he imagined, and instead felt a bit calm and relaxed.

Pei Shu was imprisoned for two years, and he escaped for two years. These two years were stolen by him, and he would accept whatever punishment he would have in the future.

If Tasia wants to threaten him with this, she is really wrong! After nearly a year of confusion and infatuation, they ended up not understanding each other at all.

He admitted that he was a bad person, but Tasia still underestimated him, and even more underestimated the patriotism of the Chinese people.

After Du Xingwei finished speaking, he lowered his head and said guiltily: "I'm sorry."

He said these three words when he first confessed, and he still ends with them today.

Too light, Du Xingwei thought. These three words have no weight at all and cannot change the situation at all. However, besides apologizing, he didn't know what else he could do.

"Professor Gu, I'm sorry."

Gu Wenjing snorted heavily and turned away from him.

Ji Wangchen had already disclosed it to him in advance, so he wouldn't be upset, but if he could say he was relieved, it was far from being relieved.

He has restrained himself from hitting people himself.

Jiang Li looked at his former most satisfied student with a sad face and let out a long sigh.

He stood up and bowed deeply in the direction of Gu Wenjing: "Gu Wenjing, I'm sorry."

Gu Wenjing did not avoid it and accepted the apology.

Duxingwei suddenly sobbed and cried bitterly.

On the one hand, it is because of the huge guilt inside.

On the other hand, the teacher is still willing to recognize him as a student, and Professor Gu is also willing to recognize him as Jiang Li's student.

So the teacher will apologize for him, so Professor Gu will recognize that his teacher apologized for him.

Jiang Li straightened up and said, "Thank you."

Gu Wenjing glanced at him with red eyes, noncommittal.

Jiang Li turned around and bowed in Shen Minghuan's direction again, "Minghuan, I'm sorry."

Shen Minghuan didn't dare to accept it calmly like Gu Wenjing. He was so frightened that he almost jumped up from his seat and helped Jiang Li up, "Teacher?"

No, what does he have to do with it? Even if Country M asked Du Xingwei to trick him out, wouldn't it still be successful?

The system is also very confused: [Host? ]

It was just a bow, why did its host react so violently? In the past, many people knelt down to him, but he didn't avoid them, right?

[Maybe it’s because I’m afraid of shortening my lifespan. ] Shen Minghuan said.
