Chapter 366: Going to the Military Region with Ye Chenjing
Not bad, not bad, the feel is good; this is a new batch of five Aperture-Penetrating Pills—after you finish them, go check your body for any effects, I'll head back first.
Lin Meng tossed aside the pill and prepared to leave.
In a few days I'll need to see Bai Shen again to get back the Nine-Eyed Heavenly Pearl.
I also need to check with Ye Heng whether we need to purchase new supplies, and meanwhile hear about the progress of Bi Hu Suo's expansion.
Once the expansion and renovation are done, we should have an air purification system; then we can ship over some fertile soil so they can become self-sufficient.
And there's Ye Fan—I don't know if those two Supreme Elders have been looking for him again.
After entering the inner gate, Ye Fan will likely be busier; we need to hurry and have him order another batch of pills from the Song Family.
Anyway, the space can store things indefinitely, so there's no worry about spoilage—this time we'll stock up more.
As for Ye Xiu, I probably won't see him for a while, but next time I go, besides seeing Bai Shen, I should also check on that little girl Zhi Zhi.
When Ye Xiu gets busy, he likely won't be able to look after his sister either.
The little girl attending boarding school alone does worry me a bit.
Thinking that I'm actually quite busy myself, Lin Meng got up and headed out.
Ye Chenjing put away his disappointed expression and quickly rose to follow.
"I'll see you off."
Soon, many people at the company saw Ye Chenjing earnestly escorting a beautiful woman out of the office building, all the way to the roadside, until the car disappeared from sight, he still stood there gazing for a long time.
Someone recognized Lin Meng, thought she looked familiar, and soon someone discovered that Lin Meng had visited the company before.
For a while, speculation within the company about Lin Meng's identity gradually converged—she must be the future chairman's wife.
Ye Chenjing heard these office rumors and secretly laughed, unable to keep his mouth shut.
Sometimes listening to office gossip is actually nice; it makes one feel pleased in mind and body……
Within two days, news came from Ye Chenjing's side.
Lin Meng had always known his efficiency was high, but this time, since it was about helping her liaise with the military, she didn't expect news in less than three days.
Ye Chenjing personally drove over early in the morning to pick up Lin Meng.
After getting in the car, he said:
"Today I'll first take you to meet the two officials who came on official business; I don't think it's possible to see the higher-ups right away."
Lin Meng nodded.
"I understand; I also didn't plan to succeed in the negotiation in one go."
Ye Chenjing drove Lin Meng for nearly two hours, until the area was scarcely populated, surrounded by wild mountains and forests, when they finally saw a high wall.
Ye Chenjing said to Lin Meng:
"This place sees few visitors; first, it's remote, and second, the mountains here are largely undeveloped, the roads are tough, and there are many wild graves."
"A few exploration bloggers once came here for adventure, nearly got lost in the mountains and couldn't find their way out; lately, hardly anyone ventures into the mountain."
"Moreover, there's a military region and a prison built in these mountains, neighboring each other, with very tight security—did you see that high wall? That's the prison."
Lin Meng glanced at it and couldn't help swallowing.
This was her first proper sight of a prison, but the wall was extremely high, with a high-voltage warning displayed on it.
Until Ye Chenjing said: "This is Jing Shi First Prison, the highest supervision level, holding only serious criminals—are you interested? Want to go in for a tour?"
Lin Meng: "……"
"You treat this place like your home and still want to tour? Hurry up and take me to the military region."
Ye Chenjing, hearing that, curled his lips and gave a light laugh, suddenly finding that occasionally teasing her was rather fun.
The car quickly entered the military region; all around were handsome soldiers, each with a straight waist and spirited bearing—clearly well-trained.
Ye Chenjing drove the car to the designated spot according to the guidance; as soon as they got out, someone came over to conduct an inspection.
After undergoing a strict search, Lin Meng and Ye Chenjing were taken into a windowless dark room, where an old fan sat in the corner.
Although the layout had been temporarily altered and the tables and chairs looked newly moved in, Lin Meng could still tell at a glance that this was an interrogation room.
Ye Chenjing frowned, seeming dissatisfied, but since this is a restricted area for ordinary people, he couldn't voice an opinion—he just felt that Lin Meng was being wronged.
"Don't worry, after all the rules here are strict."
Lin Meng nodded, feeling it wasn't a big deal.
Here everything must follow the rules; we can't be careless, and the fact that they didn't refuse to meet is already good.
Not long after, two middle-aged military officers entered the interrogation room.
They first nodded at Ye Chenjing, then their gaze fell on Lin Meng.
They didn't beat around the bush; upon meeting they said to Lin Meng:
"Are you here to report an important matter to the military?"
Lin Meng nodded, and Ye Chenjing did not overstep to explain the pill matter for her in advance.
The existence of the Aperture-Penetrating Pill is still heaven-defying; it can completely turn an ordinary person into a super soldier.
Such a pill can't be explained in a few words; only by letting them experience it personally will do.
"Do the two officials have decision-making authority?"
As soon as Lin Meng's question left her mouth, the two officers opposite froze their gazes and glanced at each other.
One of the officials thought and said:
"This young comrade can first state what you want to feedback; if our authority isn't enough, we'll report to superiors."
Upon hearing that, Lin Meng nodded, then took out the small prepared porcelain bottle from her pocket and placed it on the steel table before them.
"Two officials, what I'm about to say might make you think I have delusions, or that I'm joking, but please believe me—I'm clear about what I'm doing, and I wouldn't waste your precious time out of boredom."
Lin Meng went to great lengths to give the two officials a precautionary warning, then she opened the bottle cap and poured out a pill.
Upon seeing the brown pill, both officers froze.
Before they could even ask, Lin Meng proactively explained, her tone very solemn and serious.
"This pill is called the Aperture-Passing Pill; it can clear the body's crucial acupoints, strengthen the bones and muscles, markedly increase human strength, and surpass human limits."
Lin Meng spoke very earnestly, but to the two superiors her words sounded like Arabian Nights.
Their first reaction was, "What's wrong with this girl? Doesn't she know that spouting nonsense and dabbling in heretical ways in the military region will earn her severe punishment?"
Lin Meng saw their reaction and knew they didn't believe her, but she wasn't in a hurry.
She hadn't intended for them to believe her based on just a few words.
The next second, Lin Meng gave Ye Chenjing a look.
Ye Chenjing immediately took out the prepared stack of documents and handed it over.
"You two can look at the materials first; I myself am a beneficiary of the Aperture-Passing Pill—I wouldn't be able to get a wife if I were lying."
