Zhou Zhou watched him leave.
Wait until the person walks away.
She then said to Shi Fu, "Vice President, can you please excuse me for a moment?"
Shi Fu knew Zhou Zhou's achievements in the field of physics, and he had a good impression of Zhou Zhou among the laboratory heads.
So he readily agreed and asked Zhou Zhou to follow him to his office.
…
Shi Fu arrived at the office, opened the door, and asked Zhou Zhou to find a place to sit.
He went to the water dispenser to get two glasses of water, handed one to Zhou Zhou, and went back to sit behind his desk. He said with a relaxed look, "Team Leader Zhou, what do you want to talk to me about? Just say it directly."
Zhou Zhou lowered his head and took a sip of water, then put the cup on his lap. He raised his head and said with a slightly serious expression, "Vice Dean, I received news that the hidden family has been making frequent moves recently...someone has come to the Independent Continent."
"You mean the hidden family?"
Zhou Zhou nodded: "Yeah."
Shi Fu knocked his teacup on the table in surprise, frowning, "But...hasn't Mr. Martin always been in charge of the Hidden World Family? Why would they suddenly send someone over again?"
"I don't know." Zhou Zhou looked up and asked, "Vice Dean, do you think they are dissatisfied with our selection of successors this time?"
Shi Fu pursed his lips and remained silent, apparently starting to think about how big this possibility was.
"The Hidden World Family has maintained a good cooperative relationship with the First Institute for many years, and it has always been Mr. Martin who has come forward to hand over to us. They suddenly sent people to the Independent Continent, and after they came, they did not contact us. I am worried that they are dissatisfied with the dean and the First Institute."
"Also, I'm worried that they are coming for Qiao Nian!" Zhou Zhou was most worried about this.
Shi Fu was afraid that she would be nervous, so he comforted her after a moment's pause: "The dean never mentioned this matter, so you don't have to worry too much."
Zhou Zhou took another deep breath and said to him directly: "I'm not imagining...Did the Vice President hear about the explosion in Victoria Harbor?"
Shi Fu looked at her.
Zhou Zhou picked up the water cup and took a sip to ease his tense mood. He took a deep breath, raised his eyes again and said, "Someone is taking action in the high seas, and the weapon used is a new type of weapon. This type of weapon has never appeared in our First Research Institute. I am worried that it is the work of someone from the hidden family..."
Shi Fu groaned: "Are you saying that the people from the hidden family took action in the high seas of the Independent Continent?"
Zhou Zhou shook his head and looked at him, his expression becoming more serious: "I don't care where they start. What I mean is that they are very likely to have new weapons that none of us have! This is the most important thing! I'm worried that they will find someone else to research new weapons of mass destruction."
Shi Fu looked at her suddenly.
Zhou Zhou did not avoid his gaze and said concisely: "I know that you and the dean do not want the First Research Institute to become a weapon in the hands of the hidden family. I am the same! I also do not want the institute to become a place for various forces to compete. That's why I am particularly worried about this matter... Ji Ziyin..."
Shi Fu probably understood why Zhou Zhou was looking for her.
Zhou Zhou was referring to the explosion at Victoria Harbor in the Independent Continent. She suspected that it was done by Ji Ziyin. Ji Ziyin had developed new weapons for the Hidden Family that even the First Research Institute could not control. She was worried that these things would be used by someone with ulterior motives to stir up trouble...
After Shi Fu understood her intention, his expression eased a little and he interrupted her: "It's not Ji Ziyin. She doesn't have this ability!"
