Under the dim light, most of the professor's body was hidden in the shadow, and the pen in his hand turned rhythmically.

Zi Yang seemed exhausted, lying tilted on the chair, muttering something in her mouth.

"I seemed to have been hit by something. I felt a pain in my head at that time and suddenly fell into a coma. When I woke up, I was in the hospital."

When Zi Yang said this, he suddenly felt his throat dry and his body weak, as if he had just finished running ten thousand meters. He looked up and realized that the pen in the professor's hand had stopped rotating.

The professor picked up the teacup and took a sip of water, and said expressionlessly: "Well, yes, I know everything."

Then he said, "It's getting late, you can go back and rest first." There seemed to be a hint of disappointment in his voice.

When I returned to the hotel, Zi Yang was depressed. Everything that happened just now was like a dream. Oh no, I just said something but I couldn't remember it. Was he hypnotized by the professor? Did I have all the tricks?

The scene of the professor hypnotizing Chen Ruixi in the tent is vivid in his mind, and he feels chill all over.

Originally, I had already colluded with Su Rui to deal with the interrogation, and only explained that I was lost and in danger because of the desert storm. Unknown creatures, military forbidden zones, and alien civilizations all concealed all the information that would cause them trouble. Su Rui even taught him two tricks to deal with lie detection.

Unexpectedly, Professor Zhang actually took action himself. In the face of his hypnosis, there is probably no secret to hide it?

It's over. Will I be pulled out and shot after trespassing into a military restricted area? Will I be locked up for experiments because I'm exposed to alien creatures? Will I use my dissection for slices or something? Thinking of the sensational legends in the novel, Zi Yang became more and more afraid.

Lao Wang slept like a pig in the bed. His quilt had been kicked away. He was wearing a pair of underwear. He stretched his hand into his big shorts and was still chewing in his mouth, as if he was still savoring the smell of the pork trotters.

I really envy such people. They can fall asleep under any circumstances and don’t worry about the sky falling.

Looking at Lao Wang who was sleeping soundly like a pig, Zi Yang felt very moved:

Let's sleep, Lao Wang, maybe we can't see the sun tomorrow.

Let's sleep, Lao Wang, you can sleep vigorously. This may be the last time we have enjoyed the warm bed in this life. Let's sleep, Lao Wang, you are still snoring.

After being kicked by Zi Yang, Lao Wang turned over and fell asleep again.

With a lot of thoughts, Zi Yang finally fell asleep slowly.

In the small room, the desk lamp had been turned off, and the professor was still sitting behind the table, with a black figure sitting in front of him.

After a moment of silence, the black shadow spoke: "Is there any valuable gains in that girl?"

Professor Zhang: "No."

Black Shadow: "Not at all? Is hypnosis effective?"

Professor Zhang: "No, I have never missed my hypnosis. She explained it very smoothly - this is what makes me strange. Under my strong psychological suggestion, the information in the subconscious of the hypnotized person will be displayed without reservation, including those memory blind spots she did not realize, but - the information she gave me was too neat, as if it had been processed and edited - she should have received some special training to deal with this situation."

Black Shadow: "Apart from the young man just now, should the other people also hypnotize?"

Professor Zhang: "There is no need and no time. The other party's actions are faster than we expected. Moreover, the above is under a lot of pressure and must be solved quickly and cannot be delayed."

The black shadow nodded: "Do your best and strive for more favorable conditions."

The next day, Zi Yang didn't wake up until ten o'clock. Lao Wang and Xiao Hei, who had been playing PSP for a long time, were already impatient. When the three of them were about to go for brunch, someone notified them to go to a meeting. Looking at the serious guards, Zi Yang was so nervous, "Did you do it so quickly?"

This military hospital is very large in scale. In the inconspicuous corner of the hospital, there is a gate for guards to stand guard. There are two guards carrying live ammunition at the door. Most of the places in the hospital are open, and only here is a pass to enter.

Under the leadership of the guards, they entered the gate and came to a low building. There were many cars with "special license plates" parked in front of the building. Judging from the license plate numbers, there were wj, military a... The letters were all red and the target symbols were mostly Audis. There was also a Cadillac with the word "collar" written on it...

Zi Yang and Lao Wang looked at each other. Judging from the cars, their owners should be less than apart. I don’t know if they were here to inspect or see a doctor. If it was related to their affairs, the situation would be a bit serious.

Everyone followed the guards to the second floor and saw several people standing at the door of a conference room. The guards were also replaced by special police. There were also several foreign burly men in suits and ties standing next to them, with headsets on their ears, and the atmosphere was very serious.

When I pushed the door open, I saw that the conference room was very large. In the center was a long conference table, with two groups of people standing opposite to each other. At one end of the long table was a middle-aged man in a suit and lace, with a blonde hair and blue eyes, and a US national emblem on his chest. It seemed that he was an ambassador and other officials. He lowered his head and was looking through the information. A middle-aged woman was sitting next to him, and he should be his translator.

A tall yellow man stood on the left hand of a foreigner. He was in his forties and fifties, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, black beards, a mighty expression, and his long gray hair was as fluffy as a hedgehog, which was impressive.

Behind the middle-aged man was Su Rui in black, with her hair tied into a ponytail and tied behind her head. She stood a tall and handsome young man in a suit, who was about 1.9 meters tall, and was outstanding among the crowd.

On the other end of the long table, the Chinese delegation should be. A general with a gray hair and shaved hair was not tall, but he sat there without being angry.

Professor Zhang stood next to him, still with a kind smile on his face. When he saw Zi Yang coming in, nodding his head. Zi Yang noticed that Jin Guoqiang was also standing among the group of soldiers behind the general.

The atmosphere in the conference room was quite tense. It seemed that there had been a fierce confrontation here before everyone came in. It was obvious that the talks were not going well.

The guards brought Zi Yang and his men in and signaled them to sit on a chair in the corner of the conference room.

Seeing them coming in, everyone's eyes turned around. Zi Yang and Lao Wang couldn't help but feel a little panicked again. It was the first time that they attended a formal international occasion. They were a little nervous. It shouldn't be necessary to have two college students. It seems that they are not the protagonist of the meeting, and they are a little relieved. With Professor Zhang and Jin Guoqiang's friendship, they shouldn't do anything to me, right? Will they help me?

The general sat there with his back straight, looking at the other side with his eyes. Zi Yang and the others came in without distracting his attention. After the guards closed the door, he spoke: "As a member of the scientific expedition team, Mr. Alexander did not obey the command and acted without authorization, changed his established goals and routes, and went deep into our military restricted areas. This is a serious provocation to our sovereignty."

The translator translated this passage to the ambassador and answered in English without being humble or arrogant.

"Mr. Alexander is an internationally renowned scientific researcher, not a military worker."

"The accident was caused by the desert storm, which caused the instrument to fail. The lack of experience in survival in the wild by the escorts was also the main reason for the death of the expedition team."

"Alexander himself was seriously injured and is still in a coma. We are very sorry for this situation. We apologize for the inconvenience caused to your country. We also thank you very much for your help in the face of danger."

The ambassador said a passage, and the middle-aged woman next to him translated it. After saying these high-sounding official words, everyone turned their attention to the general and saw how he reacted.

The general still looked at the other party majestic: "The rescue team was out of humanitarianism, and the ambassador should not be polite. It is a certain fact that Mr. Alexander violated our military restricted areas. As a rigorous scientific worker, it is too far-fetched to make such a low-level mistake."

The ambassador took out a stack of information and said in a humble and arrogant manner: "According to satellite images, a few days ago, an unprecedented sandstorm occurred near Lop Nur for many days. The scale has even changed the geological appearance of some areas. I think your government should have also monitored this phenomenon. This time can match the time when the expedition team died, and it also verified the testimony of instrument failure from the side."

"And there were Chinese colleagues accompanying the expedition team, and their testimony was consistent with the testimony of our escort." After the translator finished speaking, everyone turned their attention to Zi Yang and others.

Zi Yang felt panicked. He remembered seeing the sign of a military restricted area in the desert, and warned Alexander that if he really wanted to check the testimony, there might be too many flaws in it.

The ambassador dug out two more documents and said, "This is the description of the death process by the expedition team members. This is the testimony of our staff Ms. Su Rui, and this is the testimony of the entourage Li Ziyang provided by your country. The two testimony are completely consistent in the process and details. It can be confirmed that the death of the expedition team was a complete accident and coincidence."

When Zi Yang heard his name from the ambassador's mouth, his heart trembled and his eyes turned dark, "It's over... I'm going to be cheated by this foreigner..."

But when I heard the testimony of the two parties completely matched, Zi Yang felt it was incredible. He had only reached a general consensus with Su Rui before, but the details were completely consistent?... Could it be that Su Rui and I were really a match made up for heaven, and even made up lying exactly? This is too impossible...

The only person who is capable of making two identical "fake offerings" should be Professor Zhang.

Yes, it should be the professor who helped me out, but it was my own person.

Thinking of this, Zi Yang gratefully forgot about Professor Zhang's glance, and the professor looked at the desktop expressionlessly.

Obviously, these two testimonies are very beneficial to the US side.

The general said: "Even if it was an accident, Alexander's deviation from the action plan is an objective fact. In addition to bearing the consequences of trespassing into a military restricted area, he bears unshirkable responsibility for the major casualties and losses caused."

The ambassador spread his hands: "This operation is a transnational cooperation between China and the United States. It is a scientific research act and has nothing to do with military or political affairs. We deeply regret the losses caused by his personal actions."

This passage is obviously a rogue. The ambassador pushed all the questions on Alexander. Anyway, he is in a deep coma now, and you can't ask any questions.

Obviously, the ambassador did not want to take any responsibility. After the translation was finished, the conference room fell into a brief silence.

The tall middle-aged man with a hedgehog-like hair spoke with a thick bass, "We will provide compensation for the helicopter crashes, personnel damage, and material consumption that caused your country's search and rescue process." Although this middle-aged man looked like a Chinese, Mandarin was not very standard.

"Alexander is a colleague of our institution. He has always been very steady in his work. His personal character and academic ability also have a high reputation internationally. We are very sad about this accident. Because of his personal reasons, we have an unpredictable responsibility."

"Our organization will donate a batch of advanced scientific and technological instruments to your country, sponsor some scientific research projects, and even share some precious scientific research materials with you as compensation for the incident. Please believe that with the strength of our organization, the compensation plan provided is enough to make up for your losses. Of course, this is not enough to make up for the impact on this incident."

After hearing these words, the general's face finally eased a little: "Professor Su is an internationally renowned scientist. I have also heard of the famous name of you and the institutions you lead for a long time. I believe in your strength and sincerity - but Alexander's unauthorized infringement of sovereignty on our territory has become a certain fact, and it has nothing to do with scientific research."

After hearing this, Zi Yang thought to himself that the general seemed a little unkind. If Professor Su on the other side was much more sincere than the ambassador, and he would still pursue it, would he have to lock up Alexander, who had become a vegetable?

The other party did not expect the general to be so tough, but "invasion of military restricted areas" is indeed an ironclad fact, and this is the most taboo thing between countries.

The situation was a bit stalemate, and Professor Zhang, who was standing behind him, suddenly spoke, "As a scientific researcher, I can understand Mr. Alexander's enthusiasm for science and exploration. However, in other countries' territory, respect for sovereignty is the result of insufficient communication between the two sides. I hope that the scientific research institutions of the two countries can strengthen communication and cooperation in the future to avoid similar situations in the future. This situation in Alexander is a huge loss for the scientific community."

Zi Yang was shocked again after hearing Professor Zhang's words. Professor Zhang's words seemed to be giving the other party a step, almost a kind of default on the negotiation conditions.

Although Professor Zhang stood behind the general, his voice seemed to be higher than that of the general.

Sure enough, Professor Su took advantage of the situation and set off. "Of course, after obtaining your permission, we will bring Alexander back to the United States for treatment. After that, I will set up a special aftermath group, and I will lead the team in person to negotiate with you the specific details of the compensation plan."

Professor Zhang also said: "I believe that with your organization's capabilities, you can definitely provide Dr. Alexander with better medical conditions."

Professor Su: "Where is there, Dr. Alexander can save his life, thanks to your hospital's full assistance." Although Professor Su is not very fluent in Chinese, he seems to be a very good person. He is polite to Professor Su.

The situation is very obvious. It seems to be a negotiation between the ambassador and the general, but it is actually a game between two institutions represented by Professor Zhang and Professor Su.

The situation has become clear when the negotiations are underway to this extent.

Professor Su politely asked the ambassador what he had to do with such a solution. The ambassador spread his hands and leaned back: "This is a problem between the scientific research institutions of the two countries, and we do not interfere or participate." It seems that the ambassador is also a master of comradeship, and he has completely pushed the blame.

The general snorted: "Since that's the case, let's discuss the subsequent handling plan. Please leave the seat if you have no relevant personnel."

At this time, a staff member came to Zi Yang with two Chinese and English testimonies, asking him to see if there are any differences, and if there is no problem, sign it.

Zi Yang finally understood why he was called to such a place to attend. These two testimonies are the key to this negotiation. The success or failure of the negotiation, all the compensation and conditions are based on the testimony of himself and Su Rui.

Looking at the densely packed Chinese and English testimonies, Zi Yang dared not read it. Even if there were differences, he would not dare to say it.

Sign, sign immediately, sign without hesitation. Now Zi Yang is willing to sign anything as long as he doesn't ask him to sign the execution notice.

After asking where to sign, he wrote "Li Ziyang" tremblingly - he left his name on international official documents.

Finally finished the matter, Zi Yang felt relieved. I remember that Li Hongzhang was just as feeling when he signed the "Xin Chou Treaty" back then?
Chapter completed!
