Yi Jiming had been wanting to see Qin Ran for a long time after knowing that she was in contact with Yang Fei.

In the evening, he saw Yang Fei in the crowd. Even the rest of the team and their coach did not wait and went to the exit to block people from Yang Fei.

After waiting for a long time, almost everyone left and he did not see anyone come out.

Before that, he kept asking if Yang Fei and Qin Ran had already left.

Suddenly, he saw Qin Ran and the others come out. He couldn’t care less about the other people and immediately waved his hat and shouted.

After that, he lowered his head and knocked on the car window. “Sun G.o.d, quickly come out!”

Yang Fei saw Qin Ran and the others. He held the mask on his face and opened the car door.

He had too many fans blocking the VIP entrance, so the two of them wore fan support hats and masks.

It was almost 12 AM.

The weather in December was windy and cold.

However, Yi Jiming’s voice could be heard clearly.

Due to the word “G.o.d,” Lu Zhaoying did not think of Qin Ran and instead looked around. “I actually saw Yi Jiming at the entrance of the auditorium! Who is he waiting for? Will the Sun G.o.d be there?”

Lu Zhaoying looked left and right again, but there were no suspicious figures around.

Jiang Dongye looked at the teenager across the road curiously and asked, “They can’t be looking for us, right?”

Lu Zhaoying wanted to say “no” because how could he be so lucky? However, he saw Yang Fei at the driver’s seat of the van.

The two of them were walking towards them.

Lu Zhaoying thought about it and was sure that Yi Jiming said “G.o.d Qin” just now.

He was a little startled. “Qin Ran, Yi Jiming just…”

Qin Ran pulled down her cap and ignored him. She narrowed her eyes, looked at Yang Fei, and then glanced at Cheng Juan and the rest.

Finally, she looked at Cheng Juan and asked, “Are we going to eat supper?”

She had something to ask Yang Fei.

Cheng Juan raised his eyebrows and answered in a low voice, “Sure.”

The long vehicle arranged by Jiang Dongye was big enough and the group of them walked to the car.

He was different from Lu Zhaoying. Although he heard of Yang Fei before, he did not idolize him. As such, he was able to greet Yang Fei and Yi Jiming and even introduce himself very politely.

Anyone who came with Qin Ran to the scene was considered Qin Ran’s friend to Yi Jiming.

After a series of introductions, Cheng Juan, who stood beside Qin Ran, raised his eyes and lazily spoke. “Cheng Juan.”

This was a sufficient introduction.

Yang Fei quietly looked at Cheng Juan and couldn’t help but feel that this person was a little hostile.

However, his expression was lazy and he spoke politely, so he did not think much of it.

The four of them got in the car.

Jiang Dongye dragged a stunned Lu Zhaoying into the car. “Lu Zhaoying, it’s time to eat.”

This man was just talking about Sun G.o.d, but when he saw the actual person, he became numb.

Lu Zhaoying turned his head around stiffly. “Just now, what did Yi Jiming call Qin Ran?”

“G.o.d Qin? Why? Isn’t that right?”

Lu Zhaoying gasped. He shook his head and said, “I’ve never seen Yi Jiming call anyone like this beside Sun G.o.d.”

“She’s really good at playing games.” Jiang Dongye tried to urge Lu Zhaoying to quickly get into the car.

Lu Zhaoying sat on the pa.s.senger’s seat in a daze.

Lowering his head, he saw a notification from WeChat. It was a message from Ouyang Wei asking him if he wanted to play a game.

Why would Lu Zhaoying want to play a game now?!

There was a lot of s.p.a.ce at the back.

Qin Ran and Cheng Juan sat in the middle. Yi Jiming and Yang Fei accommodated the situation and sat in the back row.

Yi Jiming sat directly behind Qin Ran.

He placed his hand on Qin Ran’s seat and leaned forward slightly as he wanted to talk to Qin Ran. However, he felt that the atmosphere in the car was a little strange.

Cheng Juan, who sat in front, had an especially pressurizing presence.

Yi Jiming glanced at the two of them and seemed to think about something before leaning back onto his seat.

At this time, the large businesses were already closed and it was not easy to look for a place to eat.

However, Jiang Dongye still managed to find an old well-known restaurant that served Shanghai cuisine and was open for 24 hours.

The dishes were quite sweet. Qin Ran put down her chopsticks after a few mouthfuls and took a tissue paper.

Cheng Juan also took a few bites. Seeing her movements, he couldn’t help but tilt his head slightly.

“I have to go to the bathroom,” Qin Ran said as she pulled the stool out and walked away.

Watching her leave, Cheng Juan leaned back in his chair and knocked on the table.

The two waiters standing in the room walked over.

Cheng Juan whispered a few words to them.

Along the corridor.

Qin Ran had just finished using the bathroom. She washed her hands, took a tissue paper, and slowly wiped her hands. After that, she walked out.

As soon as she turned around, she saw Yang Fei waving at her from a distance.

“G.o.d Qin.” Looking at Qin Ran, Yang Fei raised his head.

“That’s something wrong with that Yan.” Qin Ran lowered her eyes, carefully wiped the water on her hands, and threw the tissue paper in the trash can.

She was referring to the compet.i.tion tonight. There was a team member who was in a particularly bad state.

Yang Fei leaned against the wall and nodded. “I know that, but Old Qiao’s ligament is injured. Most of the members in the second and third teams are young athletes and will not play this season.”

Old Qiao was the oldest member of the team.

Meng Xinran was previously a subst.i.tute for Old Qiao in one game.

Due to the media incident, Yang Fei placed Meng Xinran in the blacklist and let Yan play.

However, Qin Ran only gave him a word of advice. Seeing that Yang Fei also noticed it, she did not say anything more.

The two of them returned to the room.

Qin Ran sat back on her seat, held a gla.s.s of water in her hand, and took a sip. This time, she did not touch any of the dishes. Just then, a waiter came up with a plate of boiled meat.

Jiang Dongye, who had been observing the situation, froze for three seconds. He finally realized what Cheng Juan told the waiter.

He shook his head and laughed.

After supper, it was already almost 2 AM when they returned to the hotel.

Cheng Mu was the one who booked the hotel.

The five rooms were all suites. The last room was booked after Cheng Mu arrived and the rooms were all on the 36th floor.

Qin Ran used her room card and went into her room. After taking a shower, she did not plan on sleeping. Instead, she put on a bathrobe, took out a laptop from her backpack, and turned it on to contact Gu Xichi.

Gu Xichi recently found a new direction for his research and was not asleep like Qin Ran.

He was still in his laboratory.

He was currently holding a test tube. Seeing that Qin Ran was finally calling him, he looked at the screen. He was wearing a white s.h.i.+rt with its sleeves rolled up. “You haven’t spoken to me in days. Is everything ok? Did Jiang Dongye look for someone to monitor you?”

Jiang Dongye had learned his stalking skills from Gu Xichi.

Thinking about this, Gu Xichi quietly put his test tube down and frowned. Qin Ran might not be able to handle Jiang Dongye.

“I don’t think so.” Qin Ran dragged the chair out from under the table and sat down.

Gu Xichi nodded and sighed in relief.

As long as Jiang Dongye was not monitoring her.

He continued to turn around and took the test tube to another corner. After some thought, he looked up. “Do you know that your grandma was exposed to radiation, right?”

Qin Ran nodded.

“Do you know what the main cause is?” Gu Xichi placed the test tube in a machine and looked at her again.

Qin Ran shook her head. Gu Xichi’s report and Sherlock Holmes code were very similar.

Gu Xichi glanced at her and said, “Forget it. Give me a few days to a.n.a.lyze it. I will visit Yun Cheng and tell you in person. However, I might look for Cheng Juan on the way…”

He pursed his lips and walked to another corner. He did not directly say that uranium was detected.

Uranium was the basic fuel for nuclear power.

What exactly did Chen Shulan do? Gu Xichi furrowed his brows.

“You’re not in the dormitory?” Most parts of Gu Xichi’s laboratory were running. He took out another piece of printed paper and glanced at it. After some thought, he felt that there was something wrong about the uranium. He looked at the screen and realized that her background was different. “Are you in the capital to look for your teacher?”

Qin Ran reached out to dry her hair. She leaned back and said calmly, “No. I’m in Devil Capital.”

Gu Xichi put the paper aside.

“Devil Capital?” He abruptly looked up. After that, he turned off the machine and walked over. “Where? You didn’t even tell me you were coming. Why didn’t you visit me?”

After some thought, Qin Ran told him a hotel name.

Gu Xichi nodded, grabbed a coat on the rack, and said, “I’ll look for you
