Chapter 212: You killed them, right?

Wood Private Consortium.

When these words fell into Chen Jing's ears, they immediately made him feel a stress response.

Yes, he still can't forget how all this happened to him began.

The DV left by Chen Bofu.

The stone tablet cracked from Chen Bofu.

No...it should be from the Antarctic scientific research survey in 1972, and it was a scientific research project initiated by the "Wood Private Consortium", which made all this happen naturally.

"Huangfu Huaisui?" Chen Jing looked at the old man in front of him vigilantly, only to think that the name sounded a bit out of the play, and no matter how he heard it, he felt that it didn't match the old man in front of him.

At this moment, Qiao Youning walked out of the kitchen with two cups of brewed hot tea and placed it generously in front of Chen Jing and Huangfu Huaisui.

"Hello." Qiao Youning put the teacup on the table and greeted the old man politely. Then she turned to look at Chen Jing, "I'll go upstairs first. Call me if you have anything to do."

Although the old man is the vice president of the [Ether Association] and he is no matter what, he is Qiao Youning's superior, but... Qiao Youning seems to have no awe of him.

After all, in Qiao Youning's eyes, joining the [Ether Association] is like working in a company, and it is really difficult to feel awe of superiors.

"Hello."

Huangfu Huaisui sat upright on the sofa. It was not surprising to see this innocent girl appear. She seemed to know in advance that she lived at Chen Jing's house.

The old man didn't care about Qiao Youning's slightly cold and polite attitude.

After Qiao Youning left.

Huangfu Huaisui slowly picked up the teacup and took a sip, then put it down and looked at Chen Jing quietly. The corners of his mouth seemed to be telling some pain.

"...Your tea is made with 100% boiling water?"

"Well...is there something wrong with this?"

Chen Jing didn't realize that the old man had a burnt mouth and explained to himself, his expression a little awkward.

"The tea I buy at home is the cheapest, because we don't know how to drink tea, we just brew it randomly, don't mind."

“…”

Huangfu Huaisui was silent for a moment, as if he was thinking about something, and it took almost two minutes before he spoke again.

"I have a personal relationship with Grandpa Jun."

"I haven't heard of this."

"We first met on the scientific research ship heading to Antarctica."

Huangfu Huaisui took out a cigar from his pocket, but he did not lit it, but slowly turned it between his fingers like he was playing with cultural relics.

"Your grandpa is an amazing person."

"But I heard he was just a university professor."

"That's it?"

Huangfu Huaisui seemed to disagree with Chen Jing's words and smiled disapprovingly.

He didn't seem to want to explain too much to Chen Jing, and did not talk too much about how his personal relationship with Chen Bofu began, but talked about what happened after that.

"After your grandfather returned to China, I actually missed him very much. If he could work with a stubborn scholar like him for a long time... it would be a good thing."

"Are you sure?" Chen Jing asked back, not believing the old man's words.

"He is much more pure and stupid than other scholars, so he doesn't need to be too intrigue when dealing with him. And he is the only professor of yellow skin at Miskatonick University, the same color as me hahaha!"

Huangfu Huaisui felt a little thirsty when he said this, so he picked up the hot tea cup again, but this time he was very careful and blew it for about ten seconds before he dared to send it to his mouth.

"You made friends with him because of this?"

Chen Jing felt it was a little incredible.

Although he does not know Huangfu Huaisui's origin, it is not difficult to see through the old man's current identity as the vice president and the fact that he led the scientific research team at the time... it is not difficult to see that the old man should be a "big man" in a sense.

Have power, power and financial resources.

How could such a character inexplicably fall in love with an old peddler?

"Those things are needed to make friends." Huangfu Huaisui seemed to know what Chen Jing was doubting, so he explained, "I am completely consistent with some of his ideas. Even in that backward era, when we were drinking on the scientific research boat, he had already foreseen what the world would become..."

Speaking of this, Huangfu Huaisui fell into memories.

It seemed as if I could feel the cold and biting evening breeze on the sea again.

"I was a pure businessman at that time, so my perspective on things is different from most people, especially from the perspective of the world... I have always looked at this 'gold mine' that is being discovered by countless people in an optimistic manner, and I always feel that there are countless possibilities in the future."

As he said that, Huangfu Huaisui suddenly paused and a helpless smile appeared on his face.

"But your grandfather said that I thought too much and the future will not be good."

"Well, it's like me... not right! It's me like him!" Chen Jing nodded, feeling that the old man's pessimistic mentality was exactly the same as his, and he was worthy of being a family.

"I heard this and wanted to throw him off the boat, but seeing that he was drunk too much, so..."

Huangfu Huaisui shook his head, and the expression on his face became more and more bizarre.

"He said that the world is changing too fast... The forest becomes a city, and the city is a forest. These steel forests that rise from the ground will eventually swallow everyone's dreams and make everyone live like machines without emotions and dignity."

Chen Jing looked at the hot tea cup in front of him, and didn't know what expression to show to face the old man's story.

"People will eventually fall into the abyss and will never turn over. This is how the world eats everyone little by little, and it will eventually die in a rotten manner... To be honest, the future he described scares me."

"Are you scared because of this?" Chen Jing looked at the old man incredibly.

"That's right, because such a world is too boring to me... I don't lack money, what I lack is fun." Huangfu Huaisui smiled, "What's the point of a world without joy?"

Chen Jing couldn't understand the brain circuit of this old capitalist.

"Everyone has a purpose to make money, some are to support their families, some are to fight for power, and I... I just want to have fun in this world."

Huangfu Huaisui stopped talking about this because he suddenly remembered that there was something more important than that.

"Smith and the others were not missing, they were killed by you, right?"

When Huangfu Huaisui asked this, she didn't care what expression was on Chen Jing's face and continued to say on her own.

"The stone tablet that your grandfather stole from Antarctica should have fallen into your hands, but I don't care about this... I just want to ask you, is Chen Bofu dead or missing now? Can you give me a real answer?"
