Chapter 827 Teacher, We Are Not Afraid

The exchange student program with foreign countries was urgently suspended. If the students passed the review, they would return to their respective countries as soon as possible. The students sent by China were also called back.

Ning Zhi traveled between the institute and Yanda as usual. The courses were not affected at all. Except for some students who were too curious, all the others were calm.

After entering the summer, thunderstorms increased in frequency and Ning Zhi was stuck at Yanda twice in one week due to heavy rain.

Once there was heavy rain accompanied by strong winds, and many trees on campus were uprooted.

One time is right now, a thunderstorm caused them to lose power.

There is a backup power supply in the experimental building, which successfully restarts itself the moment the power goes out.

But there was nothing they could do as they were still in the teaching building. It was still stormy outside and they couldn't go anywhere.

Someone suggested that Ning Zhi tell a story, and added, "A story that can be told."

Ning Zhi raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at the others, "Do you really want to hear it?"

"Yes!" everyone said in unison.

Ning Zhi nodded, "Okay, since you guys want to hear it so much, I'll tell you a story that fits the situation."

Ning Zhi told them what happened in the mountains that year. There was a once-in-a-century torrential rain in Yanjing, and the research institute deep in the mountains suffered a mudslide. With water and power outages, people on the mountain could not go down, and people below the mountain could not come up. They persisted for three full days before the rain finally stopped and the sky cleared up, welcoming the rescue supplies and rescue personnel.

"Then, teacher, were you desperate at that time?"

"I can't remember it anymore," Ning Zhi smiled, "but think about my previous generation, our predecessors. The hardships they experienced are something we can never imagine and will never experience again."

One student couldn't help but exclaim, "Anyway, I think if I were put in that kind of environment, I would definitely not be able to hold on."

"Don't underestimate yourself. If you don't experience it, you will never know if you can do it. The same is true in experiments."

The rainstorm gradually stopped after more than an hour. Ning Zhi and professors from other majors safely sent the students back to the dormitory before they left.

Not only did Yanda suffer a power outage, the entire university town was in the midst of it. Fortunately, the temperature was a little cooler due to the heavy rain, otherwise it would have been too hot to death.

Fu Qian drove over to pick up Ning Zhi, but the car broke down on the way.

Ning Zhi was helpless. "You should call a tow truck. I live in the school. I can just get up early and rush back tomorrow morning."

"It's very strange. This car shouldn't have any problems."

As soon as Fu Qian said this, he and Ning Zhi both realized that something was wrong.

"Could it be that someone deliberately sabotaged it?" Ning Zhi shook his head after saying this, "What's the point of just destroying your car?"

"Whether it's an accident or not, you should be more careful these days. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning," Fu Qian warned in a deep voice.

"it is good."

Ning Zhi stood at the school gate for a while, then turned around and went back to the classroom and dormitory.

The power repair department worked all night and finally restored power supply to all schools and residential areas the next day.

Ning Zhi got up early because she had to rush back to the research institute. She packed her things and hurried out.

Just after greeting the security personnel at the school gate, Ning Zhi found a taxi parked in front of him.

Ning Zhi waved her hand to indicate that she didn't need it, then stood aside and looked down at her phone.

The taxi drove away. Ning Zhi looked up and watched it leave, then looked away expressionlessly.

Not long after, another taxi drove over. This time it was a female driver. She enthusiastically asked Ning Zhi where she was going. Ning Zhi still shook her head, "No, thank you."

The female driver glanced at her, started the car and drove away.

Fu Qian was stuck in traffic for a while. When he arrived, five taxis had already passed Ning Zhi.

After fastening his seat belt, Ning Zhi sighed softly, "Do they think I'm the kind of person who only cares about scientific research and doesn't know anything?"

"What did Fu Chengyu say?"

Ning Zhi yawned and said lazily, "Chengyu said he has sent someone to investigate and there will probably be results soon."

After Mr. Fu passed away, no one dared to look down on the Fu family because the second and third generations of the Fu family were all very powerful, especially Fu Chengyu, who became the head of the national security-related department. Today's incident was within his authority. Considering Ning Zhi's identity and situation, Fu Chengyu was not considered to have abused his power.

There was no power outage at the research institute, so it was not the hardest hit area by the thunderstorm and heavy rain.

After Ning Zhi came back, Ye Xinran pulled her aside with a serious expression, "Do you remember Chen Yue, who worked on a project with us before?"

"Remember, what happened?"

"He came back from another place yesterday morning and was attacked just after leaving the airport. He was rushed to the hospital and was rescued for three hours, but he eventually died."

Ning Zhi frowned and told the story of Fu Qian's car breaking down inexplicably yesterday and five taxis passing by her this morning.

"Either I am too paranoid, or this is a deliberate large-scale attack."

Ye Xinran took a deep breath and said, "Anyway, no matter what, you must be careful."

"Ah."

However, at noon, another piece of bad news came. Another researcher was attacked and died on the spot.

This happened for two consecutive days, and a dark cloud hung over the entire scientific research community.

All departments and research institutes issued urgent announcements, informing their staff to be vigilant and try not to go out alone during this period.

Ning Zhi was silent for a long time, then told Yue Qi the news that she would not be able to attend classes in the next few days, and asked Yue Qi to help apologize to the students.

What made them most angry was not anything else but the fact that both incidents happened within their own country.

Ning Zhi didn't even go home. The things were delivered by Fu Qian. She hugged Fu Qian at the entrance of the research institute and asked him to take good care of little Ning An.

Fu Qian hugged her tightly and said "OK" softly.

This tense atmosphere lasted for nearly a week. A week later, the relevant departments issued an announcement stating that most of the spies in the country had been arrested and the rest were under investigation, and they would definitely not be allowed to go at large.

Regarding the issue of whether Ning Zhi could return to Yanda to attend classes, the institute and Yanda held a meeting to discuss it, and finally changed to an online teaching mode.

When Ning Zhi entered the live broadcast room, students turned on their microphones and asked her if she was injured.

Ning Zhi sighed softly, "Before the class officially starts, I would like to ask everyone a question."

"Knowing that something like this would happen, would you still be determined to enter this industry?"

There was silence in the live broadcast room for a moment, and then a powerful voice rang out.

"Teacher, we are not afraid. We should be afraid of them. It is because they are afraid that they will do these things by any means necessary."

"Right! Teacher, you have never been afraid, and neither will we!"

Looking at the immature yet determined faces on the screen, Ning Zhi smiled. They were indeed like that back then.
