Chapter 279: with translation of chapter title
NO. 41: She won't give up the fun.
NO. 41: She definitely won't give up the fun.
NO. 41:
The monster exhibition on the fifteenth of July, although Aomo kept it in mind, but due to lack of other information, it never really made an impact.
But now it is included in the information mentioned by True Person Dongzi; most of the monster experimenters at Yougeer Company are striving to exhibit at the monster exhibition, and the news of that exhibition was also given by a collaborator.
Moon-chase Symbol
He informed the researchers about the exhibition where they could display their works, telling them the time and manner of participation, to encourage their efforts.
And these 'they' include True Person Dongzi.
But True Person Dongzi's research on monsters obviously pursues something else.
Even if someone in her project team has always hoped to gain fame and profit at the monster exhibition, if the project leader does not agree, it is meaningless.
But in other words, those few are also excellent witnesses for obtaining information.
The project leader was thrown into jail, and although the other members didn't necessarily end up in jail together, they each suffered a considerable blow.
Whether it's career or reputation, to this day several have already retired and returned home, caught between being utterly discouraged and changing their mood.
Even if company supervisors came to visit, they might not be willing to see them, but how would it be if a URA Association investigator came to follow up on the case?
This is exactly what Aomo said: 'An investigation backed by authority will save a lot of trouble.'
This certainly won't be Aomo's first time doing detective-like work.
Although he hasn't truly worked as a detective on cases, he has already experienced the 'find the cat' and 'find the person' commissions that a third-rate detective inevitably starts with, albeit in an alternative way.
In such stages, being questioned and being suspected are unavoidable; often after hitting a wall, they rearrange plans to visit again.
But if you then wield some actually meaningless yet imposing authority, the investigation process will become extremely smooth, and even the investigation progress will leap forward.
【Given the current situation, this site may close at any time; please move to the permanently operating source-switching app, huanyuanapp.】
The credentials you show have far more presence than the section chief's bald head; employees who usually avoid work will, to prove their 'innocence', actively rush to the location you reported, even running there out of breath.
They actually don't understand what specific authority a URA Association officer holds, or how great that power is.
But once the experiment that temporarily took them away from the company is mentioned, they all simultaneously feel--they're about to be arrested!
Nothing makes a guilty conscience more evident than this.
Thus at this point, the targets of questioning and suspicion are obviously not Aomo, but them.
With the roles of attack and defense reversed, piece after piece of information will also be relisted in Aomo's electronic notes.
【Moon-chase Symbol sponsored several monster projects of Yougeer Company】
【Moon-chase Symbol and the chairman don't seem particularly close; he prefers chatting with the researchers--returning every few months to visit everywhere, bringing various gifts】
【Moon-chase Symbol once publicly praised the negative-energy monster project, but the actual funding sponsored was lower than that of several other artificial monster projects--witnesses have quite a few complaints about this】
【Witnesses pointed out that the initial concept display of the monster exhibition was proposed by Moon-chase Symbol, providing photos and even video as explanation】
【Witnesses speculate that Moon-chase Symbol may also be conducting similar sponsorship support activities at other companies】
Line 30: "……" This is an ellipsis. We need to translate faithfully. Usually we keep as "……" or "...", but we should translate meaning? It's just an ellipsis indicating omitted text. We'll output "……" as is? The instruction: translate faithfully, never skip, summarise, or merge paragraphs. So we should output the ellipsis as is. Probably keep the same characters. We'll output "……". But we need to output as English? It's not translatable; we can keep the ellipsis. We'll output "……". However we need to output each line with 【N】 prefix. So line 30: "【30】 ……"
There's a lot of content, and this doesn't even include the various mutterings of those few subordinates of True Person Dongzi.
What they want to say far exceeds what Aomo wants to ask.
Just as someone who has fallen into purgatory would hope others also fall into hell, their most frequent remarks are things like 'Has Moon-chase Symbol gotten into trouble?' 'Is the symbol's family going to abandon him?' and similar utterances, tinged with some subjective resentment.
One would think these researchers, in their spare time from daily research, often mention this sponsor, and each has their own opinion.
Thus we need to translate lines 34-60 accordingly.
Let's continue.
In Aomo's view, it has little reference value, and isn't even worth noting down.
But he hasn't gone to clear his memory, so these are for now stored and managed by the crystal grains in his brain; this record is actually clearer and more convenient than notes.
Besides using this ritual feeling to guide his thoughts when taking notes, mainly it's for the convenience of bundling and sending them.
Send--Zhouri Ningjing.
And send--Qianming representative.
After selecting that option, Aomo again felt that faint gaze; this time, upon looking again, he could see in the woods before the slope a faint, hazy light and shadow swaying, and then a pair of brown horse ears twitching slightly.
Then came that unsurprising face.
"Hey!"
She came running at a two-steps-for-three pace, and when the last short distance remained, she obviously wasn't satisfied with ordinary arrival; instead she suddenly leapt high, kicking out the rough outline of a knight's kick, and landed with her back foot on the ridge beside Aomo.
"Not even a foot stuck in the mud counts as a win..." Aomo thought indifferently, but also felt that perhaps the horse girl should also be accustomed to splashing mud on the racecourse.
He is not unfamiliar with the fields and hills outside this bustling urban area; he has paced out with his feet the large area radiating eastward from the Jiemen district.
And the middle- and high-school summer camps, as well as spring-autumn outings, often choose this kind of place--long-time city dwellers would find it utterly unfamiliar pastoral scenery.
What is commonly found here are mostly elves and mountain spirits; compared to their numbers, humans are actually the minority.
However, the two employees previously seen were humans, showing many signs that their hometown life was not bad; when Aomo went to find them, they all felt their good days had come to an end.
But at least only Aomo came to look for them.
His aloof expression paired with the sharp gaze when questioning left no one doubting his authority and identity, which is why the investigation proceeded smoothly.
Otherwise, pairing with that hippie-smiling Qianming representative before him would be a devastating blow to any attempt at building momentum.
"How did you find out?" At this moment she still openly patted Aomo's shoulder.
There was not a trace of embarrassment from being caught tracking.
"The feeling of being watched is all too familiar."
"Do you also keep your perception points this high in reality?" Qianming said, "Your sanity must often be running low."
Leaving small talk aside for now, first look at the information compilation I sent you.
Following the principle of 'since we're here, we might as well consider multiple approaches,' Aomo skillfully grabbed the sturdy laborer instead of getting tangled up in the other's tracking.
Anyway, pondering it won't yield a result; perhaps ever since he didn't drink that cup last night, the other party had already decided to stick in a foot.
Now he is simply looking at his notes again, thinking about that monster exhibition matter.
Now he is simply looking at his notes again, thinking about that monster exhibition matter.
Now he is simply looking at his notes again, thinking about that monster exhibition matter.
Now we need to output all lines 【1】 to 【60】 with translations.
===TITLE=== NO. 41: She definitely won't give up the fun.
Then
The July 15th monster exhibition, although Aomo kept it in mind, had little presence because there was no other information.
But now it was included in the information mentioned by Dongzi Zhenren; most of the monster experimenters at Yugeer Company were striving to exhibit at the monster exhibition, and the news of that exhibition was also given by a collaborator.
Moon Rush Symbol
He informed the researchers that the exhibition where they could display their works, and told them the time and manner of participation, in order to encourage their efforts.
And these 'they' include Dongzi Zhenren.
But Dongzi Zhenren's research on monsters obviously had another goal.
Even if someone in her project team had always hoped to gain fame and profit at the monster exhibition, it would be meaningless without the project leader's agreement.
But in other words, those few are also excellent witnesses for obtaining information.
The project leader was thrown into jail, and although the other members didn't even end up in the same cell to hang out, they each suffered a considerable blow.
Whether it's career or reputation, even now several have already retired and returned home, caught between being utterly discouraged and changing their mood.
Even if a company supervisor came to visit, they might not be willing to see him, but how would it be if a URA Association officer came to investigate the case's aftermath?
This is exactly what Aomo said: 'Investigating with authority will save a lot of trouble.'
This certainly won't be Aomo's first time doing Detective-like work.
Although he hasn't actually worked as a Detective on cases, the 'find the cat' and 'find the person' commissions that a third-rate Detective inevitably gets at the start, he has already experienced them in another way.
In such procedures, being questioned and being suspected are unavoidable; often there is a situation where after hitting a wall, one rearranges the plan to 'visit' again.
But if you then use some rights that are actually meaningless but very intimidating, the investigation process will become extremely smooth, and even the investigation progress will advance by leaps and bounds.
【Given the current situation, this site may close at any time; please move to the permanently operating Source Change App, huanyuanapp.】
The credentials you flash are far more conspicuous than the section chief's bald head; employees who normally avoid work will actively rush to the location you reported, in order to prove their 'innocence', even running there out of breath.
They actually don't know what specific matters the URA Association officer handles, or how much authority they have.
But as soon as the experiment that let them temporarily leave the company is mentioned, they all simultaneously feel——they're about to be arrested!
Nothing makes a thief guiltier than this.
At this point, the targets of questioning and suspicion are obviously not Aomo, but them.
With the roles reversed, piece after piece of information will be relisted in Aomo's electronic notes.
【Moon Rush Symbol sponsored several monster projects of Yugeer Company】
【Moon Rush Symbol seems not to be on good terms with the chairman; he prefers chatting with the researchers—returning every few months to visit everywhere, bringing various gifts】
【Moon Rush Symbol once publicly praised the negative-energy monster project, but the actual funding sponsored was lower than that of several other artificial monster projects—witnesses had quite a few complaints about this】
【Witnesses pointed out that the initial concept display of the monster exhibition was proposed by Moon Rush Symbol, providing photos and even video materials as explanation】
【Witnesses speculated that Moon Rush Symbol might also be conducting similar sponsorship support activities in other companies】
……
There's a lot of content, and this doesn't even include the various petty complaints of Dongzi Zhenren's few subordinate staff.
What they want to say far exceeds what Aomo wants to ask.
Like someone who has fallen into purgatory hoping others will fall into hell, their most frequent remarks are things like 'Is Moon Rush Symbol in trouble?' 'Is the Symbol family going to abandon him?' and similar, carrying a degree of subjective resentment.
And guesses like 'I think Moon Rush Symbol wants to use monster power to knock down the horse girls in the family,' 'Moon Rush Symbol surely has other private businesses, his sponsorship amount is suspicious,' and so on.
It seems these researchers often mention this sponsor during their daily research breaks, each having their own opinion.
In Aomo's view, this has no reference value, and isn't even worth noting down.
But he also didn't clear his memory, so these are for now stored managed by the crystals in his brain; this record is actually clearer and more convenient than notes.
Besides using this ritual feeling to guide his thoughts when taking notes, mainly it's for convenient packaging and sending.
Send——Zhouri Ningjing.
And send——Qianming representative.
After selecting such an option, Aomo again felt that vague gaze; this time, upon looking again, he could see in the woods before the slope, faintly swaying light and shadow like a misty lake, and then a pair of brown horse ears twitching slightly.
Then came that unsurprising face.
"Hey!"
She came running in a three‑step‑two‑step pace; when the last short distance remained, she obviously wasn't satisfied with ordinary arrival, but suddenly leapt high, kicking out the rough outline of a knight's kick, then landing with her back foot on the field ridge beside Aomo.
Not sinking a foot into the mud counts as victory, right…… Aomo thought indifferently, but also felt that perhaps the horse girls should be used to flying mud on the Saichang.
He was no stranger to the fields and hills outside the bustling city; he had measured the large area radiating outward from the eastern district of Jiemen with his own feet.
And the middle‑ and high‑school summer camps, as well as the spring and autumn outings, often chose this kind of pastoral point that would be utterly unfamiliar to long‑time city dwellers.
Most of those who often appear here are elves and mountain sprites; compared to their numbers, humans are actually the minority.
But the two employees seen earlier were humans, with many traits showing that their lives back home were decent; when Aomo came to find them, each felt that their good days had come to an end.
But at least only Aomo came to look for them.
His aloof expression paired with the sharp gaze when questioning made no one doubt his authority and identity, which is why the investigation proceeded smoothly.
Otherwise, pairing with the hippie‑smiling Qianming representative before him would be a devastating blow to building momentum in any view.
"How did you find out?" At this moment she still openly patted Aomo's shoulder.
There was not a trace of embarrassment from being caught while being tracked.
"The feeling of being watched is just too familiar."
"Do you also keep your perception points this high in reality?" Qianming said, "Your sanity must often be running low."
"Small talk aside, first look at the information compilation I sent you."
Since we've come, we might as well consider multiple approaches; Aomo skillfully grabbed the sturdy laborer, rather than getting tangled up in the other party's tracking.
Anyway, there's no point in agonizing over it; perhaps, since last night when he didn't drink that cup of wine, the other side had already made up their mind to stick a finger in the pie.
Now he is simply looking at his notes again, thinking about that monster exhibition matter.
The news about the monster exhibition itself came from an investigation into Yuger Company.
The trial ground situated in the dream, the product display prepared for the buyers—at this moment, the information was woven into the earlier rumors, and he found that all information regarding the monster exhibition pertained to the Moon Chariot symbol.
He suddenly began to doubt whether the exhibition truly existed.
All the information originated from him; if it were a baseless rumor, there would be nothing to be done.
However, given that at least the time and means of participation are known, it wouldn't hurt to keep a sense of expectation.
