[Rat cat] Mirror City

Zhan Zhao opened the door and poked his head into the room secretly.Bai Yutang was still sitting in front of the table, on which was a large map.

He's looking at the map again... Zhan Zhao smiled and moved towards Bai Yutang with light steps.As a result, he just got close to Bai Yutang's back, and just stretched out his hand a little, Bai Yutang grabbed his hand and pulled it forward forcefully.

"Sigh." Bai Yutang sighed, looking at the innocent Zhan Zhao, this is the first time in the past few days that he caught Zhan Zhao trying to sneak attack him? "You haven't given up yet?"

Zhan Zhao also curled his lips in boredom, ever since Bai Yutang had a friendship with Chinchilla for a while and woke up, it became boring.In other words, I always feel that Bai Yutang is more sensitive than before.

"In the past ten times, I always succeeded once or twice, but now it's gone." Zhan Zhao withdrew from Bai Yutang's arms regretfully, and looked at Bai Yutang inquiringly, "Since Chinchilla's upper body, you seem to be sharp. A lot."

Saying so, Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand and scratched Bai Yutang's face like a cat's claw. Sure enough, Bai Yutang grabbed him very easily, and then clasped Zhan Zhao's hand behind his back, and then wrapped his arms around Zhan Zhao's waist. I poked it.

Bai Yutang's strength was well controlled, neither light nor heavy, and Zhan Zhao lost the ability to resist all at once.Being thrown on the bed by Bai Yutang, Zhan Zhao buried his face in the quilt discouragedly, and said in a low voice after a while, "It's boring..."

Although he muttered that it was meaningless, Zhan Zhao laughed again after lying down under the quilt.The stunning and talented Bai Wuye faced the rough map of the Song Dynasty with a surprised expression on his face, matching Bai Yutang's usual serious face. That scene really shouldn't be too funny.

Bai Yutang also understood what Zhan Zhao was laughing at. He didn't know much about maps. Although he lived in the Northern Song Dynasty, he was blind to such a rough map "Bai Yutang". Both of them suffered serious physical and mental injuries. , and Zhan Zhao laughed like this.

"Cat, don't think that I can't cure you." Bai Yutang said with a dark face, almost being annoyed by Zhan Zhao's laughter.

Zhan Zhao immediately fell silent. It was very convenient for Bai Yutang to communicate with the person in his body. It was only then that he realized that the two were almost sharing the same perspective. The two seemed to exchange identities when necessary, but unless it was Bai Yutang Tang agrees, otherwise "Bai Yutang" can't come out casually.

So Zhan Zhao deeply suspected that if he continued to laugh, he might face the violent "Bai Yutang" who jumped out suddenly, and that guy would not show mercy to him.

"Now the location of the empty island is also clear. The Miao Dao is in our hands. We will tell Gongsun first when we go back." Zhan Zhao propped himself up to make a plan, but the phone rang.

Zhan Zhao saw the three big shiny characters "Gongsun Ce" flashing on it, Zhan Zhao blinked in surprise, he really said that Cao Cao had arrived, and just as he was thinking about Gongsun Ce, Gongsun Ce called.

Lifting the screen of the phone at Bai Yutang, Zhan Zhao put his finger on his lips and said softly "Shh".Bai Yutang waved his hand knowingly, signaling Zhan Zhao to answer the phone and not to worry about himself.

"Gongsun, let me tell you..." Zhan Zhao was excitedly planning to tell Gongsun Ce what they had gained. Unexpectedly, Gongsun Ce's approval would simply say "The phone is not released", which forced Zhan Zhao's full of excitement into wondered.

"Well, there is no public release." Zhan Zhao lowered his voice, looked up at Bai Yutang who was sitting back in his seat, and asked with his mobile phone in his hand, "What's wrong?"

"Have you found Miao Dao?" Gongsun Ce asked the most important topic first.

What, although he pretended not to care, he actually cared about this matter very much.Zhan Zhao rolled over on the bed, "I got it. Let me tell you..."

It's just that Gongsun interrupted Zhan Zhao without giving him a chance to continue, which was rare before.But Gongsun Ce's eager attitude made Zhan Zhao understand that something happened.

"Did something happen?" Zhan Zhao asked in a low voice, and Bai Yutang over there also noticed Zhan Zhao's strangeness, and cast a puzzled look at him.

"The college held an emergency meeting. Professor Cui made a fuss. The college said that the two of us had to attend the meeting. I said you were on a business trip, and the college asked to recall you urgently." In the following time, Gongsun Ce explained the matter clearly.

And Zhan Zhao's expression gradually became serious. Bai Yutang watched Zhan Zhao stand up, paced back and forth in the room, and finally walked out of the room.

Bai Yutang tilted his head and looked at the door, and after a while Zhan Zhao pushed the door open and walked in, and then Bai Yutang heard Zhan Zhao say that he had to go back to school quickly.

The two packed their luggage almost quickly, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang returned to the city amid Ding Yuehua and Li Cong's strangeness and reluctance.

"Are you sure you don't need me to take you in?" Bai Yutang stopped the car and looked at Zhan Zhao in puzzlement.From the moment he received Gongsun Ce's call, Zhan Zhao became a little bit off.

First, they said they wanted to rush back to the city, so the two booked tickets for the nearest flight that day. Even so, it was already very late when the two returned.

Under Bai Yutang's forced request, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang went home together.As a result, Zhan Zhao woke up very early this morning, and wanted to secretly rush to school without telling him.

No matter how hard Bai Yutang pressed him, the answer he got was that this meeting was urgent.Bai Yutang could see that Zhan Zhao was really in a hurry, so he didn't pursue what Zhan Zhao had concealed, and instead sent Zhan Zhao to school.

And then something even stranger happened.Zhan Zhao turned out to be unwilling to let him enter the school, and even found various reasons to prevaricate.

After several times of questioning, Bai Yutang realized that Zhan Zhao was really unwilling to tell the reason, and he could tell that Zhan Zhao was really in a hurry, so he didn't continue to tangle with Zhan Zhao, but just unlocked the car lock and let Zhan Zhao got out of the car.

The appearance of Zhan Zhao running away as soon as he got off the car made Bai Yutang more convinced that something must have happened to Zhan Zhao.And seeing Zhan Zhao's expression, he really didn't want to go to school.

Bai Yutang was the kind of person who wouldn't give up until he had figured things out. Since Zhan Zhao and Gongsun Ce couldn't get through, the only one who could get through was Bao Zheng.

So Bai Yutang immediately dialed Bao Zheng's number. If you think about it carefully, this was the first time Bai Yutang answered Bao Zheng's phone number. Before that, they would only meet when the four of them were together.

"Yo, Bai Yutang? Rare guest, rare guest." Bao Zheng emphasized with a smooth smile that even in the handset it was still like this.

Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows. Bao Zheng knew that he and Zhan Zhao were back, "Mao'er won't go to school anymore."

"Eh?" Bao Zheng was stunned for a moment, obviously he hadn't realized the meaning of Bai Yutang's words.His first reaction was that Bai Yutang must be joking, Bai Yutang was telling his own words.

But how could Bai Yutang not know how strong Bao Zheng's reaction ability is, if he wants to talk to such a person, he can only throw out one lie after another to make him overwhelmed.

"The cat was so anxious when he came back that he fell on his leg."

"..." Has anyone cursed your cat like that?

"I called Gongsun Ce and told him that the cat won't be able to go to school."

"..." If you really dare to tell Gongsun like that, Gongsun will definitely take your name.

"Gongsun said that he can handle this matter, so there is no need to go with the cat."

"How could he deal with such a big matter alone..." So don't continue to frame me.Bao Zheng wanted to say this, but soon he realized the serious problem.

Facing Bai Yutang's pressing questions, silence is the best answer.And the half sentence he left out already told Bai Yutang that something happened that made Zhan Zhao and Gongsun Ce very anxious.

"What happened in school? Is it related to me?" Zhan Zhao suddenly refused to let him into the school, probably because of this matter.

Seeing that Bai Yutang couldn't hide it anymore, Bao Zheng said, "Professor Cui from the college complained to Gongsun, saying that Gongsun had neglected the development of the Kaifeng tomb, and that Gongsun allowed unrelated people to participate in the development work. It's you."

"It's because of this?" Bai Yutang frowned, looking sideways at the school, wondering if he should go in or not.

Bao Zheng hurriedly stopped him, "Sigh, don't go in yet, now the school is using you as an issue, and almost the whole school knows about you and Zhan Zhao, so it might be bad for them if you show up again at this time. "

"Then you mean that I just let the cat be held accountable?" Bai Yutang would not allow such a thing to happen.

Knowing that he couldn't stop Bai Yutang, Bao Zheng could only sigh and say, "Then go in, I'll come over later, you mustn't..."

In the end, before Bao Zheng finished speaking, Bai Yutang hung up the phone.Bao Zheng stared at the phone, did Bai Yutang really hang up his phone?

Here, Bai Yutang didn't care how chaotic Bao Zheng was on the other end of the phone, the only thing he wanted now was to find Zhan Zhao and Gongsun Ce.

On the other hand, Zhan Zhao and Gongsun Ce were facing a meeting that caused headaches for them. Professor Cui, who was targeting them, was sitting opposite them, staring at them.

Zhan Zhao and Gongsun Ce had to straighten their backs and pretend to be calm, as if the discussion topic of this meeting was not aimed at them.Even if they really concealed the consequences of this matter.

"Gongsun, Xiao Zhan, I didn't call you here for a meeting this time to embarrass you. The main reason is that Professor Cui still has some doubts about your work not long ago." The head of the department coughed and looked at the two. He believed in Gongsun Ce And Zhan Zhao, but Professor Cui repeatedly raised the problem of the development work, which must be resolved.

At the same time, although Gongsun Ce's previous development work cannot be said to be fruitless, in fact, it has been quite fruitful, but the research on the owner of the tomb has not made any progress.It was an empty tomb, according to the report submitted by Zhan Zhao and the others.

Such a result is indeed unsatisfactory, but there are many examples in archaeological work where the owner of the tomb cannot be traced to the bottom.

"Professor Cui has always been able to bring up challenging topics, I know it." Gongsun Ce raised the corners of his mouth and looked directly at Professor Cui, "This time, please ask Professor Cui to speak clearly."

"I'm just telling the truth." Professor Cui spread out his research records, "I have studied the cultural relics brought out of this tomb. They were all in the Northern Song Dynasty, and they are of great value. But this is also a problem. The construction of this tomb can be said It's been painstaking, but Professor Gongsun, isn't the result you got too little?"

"Less?" Gongsun Ce looked at Professor Cui sarcastically, "Professor Cui, the job of archaeology is not to dig up treasures, but to dig up as much as we can. We are unearthed cultural relics, discovering history, and that's all we found in that tomb." Duo, you went down to the grave after I did the first phase of the inspection, didn't you? Do you think I hid these things?"

It is a very serious crime for archaeologists to keep cultural relics privately.As a scholar, that is a question of his academics.No scholar would be willing to be crowned with such a reputation by others.

"That's not true." Professor Cui didn't relax at all, squinting at the two of them.Watched by him, both Zhan Zhao and Gongsun Ce felt as if they were entangled by vines, and then they were pulled into the quagmire without being able to move their limbs.

"We were all aware of the equipment that Professor Gongsun was wearing at that time. Four people can't take much with them." Professor Cui took a step back, but both Zhan Zhao and Gongsun Ce realized that this matter was bad, so he deliberately proposed four things. Personally, it will definitely attract everyone's attention.

In the previous development work, Zhan Zhao, Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng's cooperation in the "Golden Triangle" was recognized by the entire archaeological team. In the past, there would be other students who matched with the three, but they couldn't keep up. The tacit understanding of the three of them, as time goes by, everyone is used to the three of them working together.

Sure enough, as soon as the topic of the fourth person came up, everyone was very interested and discussed who the fourth person was.

"Finally there is a student who can keep up with you this year? Not bad, which student is it?" the head of the department asked with great interest.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other, the matter of Bai Yutang was about to be singled out, which was something they couldn't avoid no matter what.

"Director, you don't know, you are not a student at all." Professor Cui seized this opportunity to expose the matter, "I haven't even received professional training."

Sure enough, as soon as the words were spoken, the expressions of the other teachers in the conference room changed.No one thought that Gongsun Ce and the others would do this. People without professional training cannot enter their archaeological team at will.

"Professor Gongsun, is this true?" Everyone asked.

Facing everyone's questions, neither Gongsun Ce nor Zhan Zhao answered.Rather than answering, what they care now is that Professor Cui did not participate in the project at that time, but he knew what happened at that time.

Gongsun Ce couldn't figure it out, but Zhan Zhao immediately thought of someone—Cui Ming.At that time, he and Bai Yutang met Cui Ming directly.

The others didn't know Bai Yutang, so they didn't notice that they brought in an extra person.But Cui Ming remembered Bai Yutang.

"Actually, it's not impossible to bring someone down to help." The head of the department saw that Gongsun Ce and Zhan Zhao were silent, so he spoke for them.He saw both Zhan Zhao and Gongsun Ce's ability to work, and this matter shouldn't have caused such a big fuss, so he spoke for them.

"But that's why I doubt it." Professor Cui was always aggressive, "Professor Gongsun and the others have been in the tomb for too long."

Zhan Zhao and Gongsun Ce raised their heads immediately, time... Zhan Zhao took Gongsun Ce's hand, and quickly wrote a "Ming" on Gongsun Ce's palm.

Gongsun Ce withdrew his hand. Professor Cui learned the details of their stay in Kaifeng from Cui Ming. Although it cannot be used as direct evidence, Gongsun Ce also knows that they stayed in the tomb for too long at that time, and they will be arrested It is also inevitable to remember.

Gongsun Ce knew that Professor Cui could not continue to talk, otherwise things would only become more and more unfavorable to them, "Professor Cui, director, I admit that I brought in irrelevant people in the last development work, it was me Dereliction of duty at work. If Professor Cui insists that I have not reported the work truthfully this time, then I can submit all the reports.”

"At that time, Zhan Zhao and I were not the only ones who participated in the work, and Zhan Zhao and I did not make the report. If you really doubt us, then please feel free." Gongsun Ce stood up all of a sudden, startling everyone.

Zhan Zhao also followed Gongsun Ce to go out. When he reached the door, Zhan Zhao turned his head and said, "I will sort out the report." After that, both of them disappeared into the conference room.

Everyone in the conference room finally breathed a sigh of relief.When Gongsun Ce stood up, they were all startled. Everyone knew that the young professor had a bad temper. Just now, he was a little afraid of what Gongsun Ce would do.

Instead, it was the head of the department and the dean who held their foreheads, and breathed a sigh of relief while being nervous. This seemed to be the reaction Gongsun Ce should have.
