Re-becoming a human being from Conan
Chapter 846 Focus
In the Piltover Police Station, Caitlin Gilaman was sitting at the table, carefully reading a case file and interrogation records, learning and absorbing the experience of senior law enforcement officers.
At this time, she was wearing a Piltover law enforcement officer uniform, a policewoman's dress and short skirt, and her long, smooth blue hair was tied into a simple single ponytail. She looked capable and sharp in style, and she also had an independent room in the police station. In the office, everything makes her look like a police sergeant, but in fact, she is just a newcomer who has only been a law enforcement officer for two months.
Being born into the Gila Mann family and having a mother who was one of the seven members of Parliament in Piltover brought great convenience to her life, but it also brought considerable negative effects after she started working.
She was obviously a newcomer who was supposed to do hard work, but she was protected by everyone. In two months, she was not even able to go out for a field trip.
This independent office was not what she wanted, but she found that if she sat in the office lobby like an ordinary police officer, everyone would become cautious.
But this does not affect her confidence in becoming an excellent law enforcement officer. She is more serious than anyone else.
Just when she finished reading the file in her hand and was about to replace it with the next one, she suddenly heard a slightly noisy sound coming from outside and looked up towards the door.
Are the police officers from the field back?
She stood up with some interest and heard an exaggerated tone from outside.
"You will never guess where we went this time and who we sent to Stillwater Prison."
"Who? It doesn't sound like he's from Dicheng. He can't be some noble lord."
"Hey, it's pretty much the same. He's Professor Briano Harvey from the Hextech Institute of the University of Piltover. And he's accused of stealing Piltover's major secrets. The result of the trial is life imprisonment in Stillwater Prison!"
"What? Professor? Life in prison?!"
Catherine, who was about to push the door open and leave, couldn't help but pause, showing an expression of surprise.
The Gila Mann family was a sponsor of Jace's academic research. She and Jace were childhood sweethearts who grew up together. Therefore, she knew a lot about Hextech Academy and had been there several times. She even knew Bu Lenore.
Speaking of which... today should be the day of college graduation defense, right? What happened?
In a moment of astonishment, the police officer on duty told everyone about the cause: "This matter has spread at Piltover University, and there are talks everywhere. I'm afraid it won't be long before everyone in the city will know about it. Bree I’m afraid Professor Nuo really won’t be able to get out of Stillwater Prison, and of course, there is also the Zaun named Ubin.”
"It actually alarmed the Gray Lady..."
"No wonder……"
"Professor Brinor is so unlucky that he fell into Sewell's trap."
"Yeah, despicable Dicheng people..."
Caitlin just felt sorry for Brinor's greed, then she frowned in surprise at the change in the direction of the conversation. After listening to a few more words, she couldn't help but push the door open with a creak.
The office hall suddenly fell silent.
"Miss Gila Mann." Looking at the respectful expressions of the veteran police officers who were her superiors, and hearing their greetings, Catherine sighed quietly and did not make any more futile corrections.
"I'm sorry, everyone, I heard everyone's conversation inside." She nodded and apologized, saying: "But I don't understand. Didn't Professor Briano commit a crime this time because of greed? You guys? Why are they all blaming Sewell? Is there some inside story?"
Several police officers looked at each other and hesitated for a moment before saying: "Miss Gilaman, haven't you noticed that Sewell from the bottom city joined the Philos family half a month ago? He obviously had the means to graduate early, but still Today, he even deliberately allowed the research data to be stolen, allowing Professor Blino to fall into his trap."
"...Huh?" Caitlin was stunned.
Can we still look at it from this perspective?
"Maybe you don't know much about it, but as long as you stay in the police station for a while, you will know that nine out of ten cases are committed by Zaun people in Piltover, or even more.
Those guys are crazy jealous of us and will bite us hard if they get a chance! "
"Yes, he obviously had a way to avoid all this, but he still deliberately ruined the reputation of a university professor and even harmed his roommate!"
Caitlin felt that something seemed not quite right, but she couldn't say anything for a moment. She was silent for a moment and said, "Please ask the chief for leave for me. I need to leave the police station for a while."
She wanted to ask Jace face to face what happened!
As they watched the sassy policewoman turn and leave, the other police officers looked at each other again and shook their heads helplessly.
…
Caitlin didn't know that Jace was also in some trouble at this moment. In the more than five years since he and Victor became partners, he saw Victor angry for the first time.
"Why not Arian?! Not counting Sewell, his graduation project must be ranked in the top two, or even first, among all students. Take the top three, how could he not be there?!"
Jess dodged the eyes of his friends and whispered: "The four professors raised many problems in his thesis and felt that his style was a bit radical and adventurous and not suitable for..."
Halfway through, he couldn't speak anymore under Victor's gaze.
Victor added: "You don't believe it yourself, do you? Yes, there are indeed many problems in his thesis, but that's from our point of view, after all, he is just a freshly graduated student!
Ahem...you know it too, and you definitely know why this is the case. Their colleague Professor Brinor was sent to prison by Sevier, who was born in Zaun. They felt that they had lost face, but they did not dare to offend the Gray Lady, so they could only vent their anger on Arrian, who was also born in Zaun!
Jess, technology should be pure, shouldn’t we choose the best? ! "
After saying a series of words excitedly, Victor coughed repeatedly. Jace quickly stepped forward and patted his back gently. When Victor calmed down and raised his head, seeing the embarrassed expression on Jace's face, Victor sighed apologetically.
"I understand your embarrassment, Jace. Although you are the leader of Hex Technology, the right to speak is not entirely in your hands."
"It's us." Jess corrected.
Victor paused, nodded, and said in a calm tone: "Do you remember what I said when we first met? Jace."
Jess was startled: "...remember."
"A poor and lame Dicheng man has always been an outsider from the moment he stepped into Pi City. I can only put my money where my mouth is and believe in myself, so I come to you."
Victor recalled: "It is too difficult for people in the city to change their own destiny. Now you hold Arrian's destiny in your hands.
Yes, with his achievements, even if he cannot join our group, some Piltover nobles will extend an olive branch to him, but that will eventually erase something and lose something. "
"Actually... I'm very disappointed today." Victor looked at Jace: "We can all see the value of the universal capsule, which is even far more valuable than the Hex Flying Gate. If Sevier was not born in the bottom city, With this one invention alone, he could become another Jace Tallis, establishing a new family in Piltover.
But now... ahem, he can only become a scientist hired within the Feros family, and such great technology only sells for 50,000 gold seas.
Yes, science should be used to improve people's livelihood and should not be measured by money, but it is always... a bit regretful, right? "
Jace was silent, holding his forehead with one hand.
Victor patted Jess on the shoulder and said: "I won't embarrass you about Arrian's matter. If it doesn't work, I will recommend him to try his classmate Sewell. I'm sorry to make you listen to me. There are so many complaints, it has been delayed all day, I have to go back to the laboratory."
"...Well, I'll be there soon."
Jace watched in silence.
In fact, he had some additional opinions. He also vaguely felt that Sewell had gone too far today. He had to be merciful and merciful. Professor Briano's mistake was only limited to depriving her of her professorship. There was no need to let her be in the hospital. Life in prison.
But after listening to Victor's words, he was glad that he didn't say them out loud, and he looked at himself secretly in his heart... Can people from Piltover and Dicheng, with the same talents, get justice?
At this moment, there was a knock on the door of his office: "Jace, are you in there?"
"...Caitlin?" Jace turned his head in surprise and hurriedly opened the door: "Why did you come to the academy to see me? Is there something wrong?"
…
At the same time, Lanxun Manor also welcomed a special visitor.
"This is it, Congressman Heimerdinger, I'll call Mr. Sewell." The guards of the Philos family respectfully led a short figure outside Ji Xing's temporary residence.
Heimerdinger said in a yodeling accent: "No, I'll knock on the door myself."
Da da da--
He has a white beard and white eyebrows like an old man, but the yordle's natural short stature, pointed ears, and cat nose make him look like a little doll. Even if he raises his hand high, the height he can reach is only the same as that of a normal person. waist.
But when the door opened, what he saw was an oppressive figure wearing a tank top and shorts, with tight muscles. His whole body was wet with wet sweat, and veins were beating on his half-clenched fists while he was panting. , causing Heimerdinger to subconsciously take two steps back in panic.
"Ah! I went wrong..."
"Congressman Heimerdinger?"
Heimerdinger was startled, looked behind him uncertainly, and then looked at Ji Xing: "Sewell?"
"Well, it's me." Ji Xing lowered his head and said.
"Oh~" Heimerdinger was silent: "You are... different from what I thought."
Ji Xing smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I'm exercising. I didn't expect you, Congressman Heimerdinger, to come over. Please come in."
"I would rather you call me Principal Heimerdinger than Councilor Heimerdinger."
As a yordle, Heimerdinger is 306 years old, equivalent to the history of Piltover. He is the biggest contributor to Piltover becoming a city of technology. He is one of the seven councilors of Piltover and also President of Piltover University.
Such a thing happened on campus, and naturally it quickly reached his ears.
When he walked into Ji Xing's 'home', the first thing he saw was not a bookshelf full of displays or a desk covered with calculation papers, but a floor full of large and small equipment and heavy weights, and a counterweight bigger than his head.
This was completely inconsistent with the style of a scientific researcher and made his eyes full of questions. He heard Ji Xing explain: "Actually, I prefer martial arts training to research, and I am even more interested in magic."
"Magic?" Heimerdinger came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "A good body is indeed conducive to research, but forget about magic. Magic often brings misfortune to people."
"How can scientists be superstitious?" Ji Xing disagreed: "I think magic will eventually be a technology that can be analyzed scientifically, so I hope to explore its secrets myself."
Heimerdinger was surprised and looked at the high-spirited young man in front of him: "Really? What an amazing goal... Son, I'm sorry for what happened to you in the academy today."
"It's not your fault."
"Human beings are always dazzled by the immediate benefits and forget the risks." Heimerdinger shook his head and said, "Can I... take a look at your universal capsule?"
"Of course." Soon, Heimerdinger got the universal capsule bucket that Ji Xing showed in the academy and started using it himself.
Two times later, when the bucket was restored to the capsule again, the capsule suddenly cracked open, causing Heimerdinger to tremble while he was thinking, and his face became panicked.
"Did I make a mistake?"
"No, no, no, the service life of this capsule has expired." Ji Xing said, "It was originally just a semi-finished product for demonstration."
Heimerdinger breathed a sigh of relief, and then noticed keenly: "Semi-finished product? In other words... there is also a finished product? Maybe it's a bit presumptuous, can you let me know more about it?"
"It doesn't matter, I also hope to get your advice." Ji Xing led him into the study.
The two of them sat at the desk, one on the left and the other on the right. Ji Xing took out a drawing and said, "You should have heard that my idea comes from..."
He tells and Heimerdinger listens.
Time passed unknowingly, from evening to late night, until almost early morning, Heimerdinger suddenly awed and said with emotion: "A perfect design, I didn't find any shortcomings, I even feel that this is a design that has been applied and perfected" After countless years of technology, you are an amazing genius, Sevier.”
"You're flattered, Principal."
"No, in my long life, I have seen many geniuses, such as Jace, such as Victor. Even among geniuses, you who can design a universal capsule at such an age and potentially rewrite the times are amazing."
Heimerdinger turned his head and said: "Originally, I wanted to persuade you something and teach you some knowledge about life, but after contact... you are really different from what I imagined.
Just a reminder. From today on, you will be in the spotlight of Piltover and Zaun. You must think twice before you act. A technological product, from design to perfection to application, must not be... rushed. "
"I understand, Principal."
"Yes." Heimerdinger jumped off the stool and turned around: "Finally, once again, congratulations on your successful graduation and a bright future, classmate Sewell. If you encounter trouble in life, feel free to ask me for your reference, University of Piltover You are always welcome.”
"Yeah." Ji Xing agreed.
Heimerdinger seemed to want to say something more, but stopped for a moment, and finally turned around.
"It's getting late, let's rest."
"Okay, goodbye, principal." Ji Xing shook his head as he watched Heimerdinger disappear into the night.
This is a pure scientist who hopes that science and technology will change people's livelihood and also hopes for stability. Ji Xing can see what he wants to remind. The birth of the universal capsule will greatly facilitate everyone's life, but Runeterra is not the world of Dragon Ball.
There are endless wars and chaos here, and the universal capsule will definitely be an artifact for smuggling and transporting war supplies, so he hopes that Ji Xing can take his time and not make changes in a hurry.
But it was probably because he was thinking about what happened in the academy today and that Ji Xing was already a scientist of the Philos family that he couldn't help himself, so he couldn't say it out loud.
Ji Xing didn't agree with him either.
The knife that cuts vegetables can also be used to kill people. Ji Xing never puts unnecessary burdens on himself.
Ji Xing returned to the living room and put away his things. He held a 200-pound weight-bearing block in one hand and placed it in the corner. Ji Xing went to the bathroom to wash up.
It had been two months since he invaded the world, and his physical condition was already above the standard. It was time to find an opportunity to get in touch with the magic of Rune Continent.
…
Without keeping it secret, in the following days, what happened on the graduation day of Hextech Academy spread quickly, and gradually became known to every Piltover noble, and quickly spread to Zaun.
Everyone remembered the name "Sevier" and became extremely curious about the omnipotent capsule that made a college professor become greedy and asked the Gray Lady Camille to personally stand up for him.
As for Sewell, there are different opinions. Some people, like the police, think he is a talented but scheming man from the bottom of the city. Others think he has personality and talent, and he may occupy a place in Pi City in the future.
But no matter how he thought about it, no one else dared to go directly to Lanxun Manor to look for Ji Xing like Heimerdinger did.
As time goes by, the heat of this matter gradually fades away. It took two years from the time Jace made the stable Hex Crystal to the laying of the first Hex Flying Door. Everyone thinks that the universal capsule will also take a long time. To meet the public.
But no one could have imagined that just half a month later, a piece of news would sweep the twin cities!
The first "Universal Factory" is under construction and will recruit 150 students and workers in the twin cities. At the same time, the first flagship product of Universal Capsule - the Universal Tool Box will be displayed to everyone.
The name Sewell instantly became the focus and center of the Twin Cities again!
