8: Please come with us

Great Science Academy.

Wang Guang looked at the news of the Little Eagle Sauce Museum being stolen, his entire face flushed with excitement.

“It’s the big shot, definitely done by the big shot!”

Wang Guang clenched his fists, stood up abruptly, and rushed to Zhao Zizhen’s office.

“Teacher, have you seen the news? He really did it!”

“Look at how impetuous you are. How many times have I told you to remain calm in the face of major events?”

Zhao Zizhen frowned slightly, admonishing softly, but if one listened carefully, they could hear a slight tremor of excitement in his voice as well.

“I was just too excited.”

Wang Guang chuckled sheepishly.

He couldn't help but be excited!

The big shot was simply too incredible!

First, he obtained the photolithography machine manufacturing book from Netherlands, and then he retrieved the cultural relics from the Little Eagle Sauce Museum.

Either of these two events would be earth-shattering.

Yet, the big shot succeeded twice in a row!

He completely couldn’t imagine how it was done!

At this moment, in Wang Guang’s heart, Lin Yang had already become his number one idol.

He ran to Zhao Zizhen’s office, also wanting to ask if he could send an email now.

He yearned for a closer connection with his idol.

Zhao Zizhen motioned for him to calm down, pondered for a moment, and then said, “You can, but don’t ask him to help with more information. Just send an email to express our gratitude to him. At this critical juncture, we shouldn’t add any extra trouble for him.”

“Okay, Teacher, I understand.” Wang Guang nodded repeatedly, then rushed back to his office like a gust of wind, excitedly composing the email.

Reception Center Dormitory Building.

Wang Xin Xin woke up and subconsciously reached for her phone to check the time, but what caught her eye were the headlines pushed by various apps.

“The Little Eagle Sauce Country Museum was stolen?!”

“And all the stolen items are our country’s cultural relics?”

Wang Xin Xin was stunned.

Then, in an instant, she jolted awake, sat up from the bed, staring intently at the news on her phone screen, her entire being in a complex state of shock and bewilderment!

At the same time, the bizarre phone call she received last night couldn't help but resurface in her mind!

“If I bring the cultural relics from the Little Eagle Sauce Country Museum back home, I won’t be treated as a cultural relic trafficker, right?”

This sentence, at this moment, seemed to possess a strange magic, repeating itself over and over in Wang Xin Xin’s mind.

“It couldn’t be, it really was that guy, right…”

“But…”

“How is that possible?!”

Wang Xin Xin was completely dumbfounded.

That was the Little Eagle Sauce Country Museum!

How could it just be stolen like that?

Wang Xin Xin suddenly closed her eyes, then suddenly opened them, as if wanting to confirm if she was hallucinating!

However, the sound from the official live broadcast on her phone constantly reminded her that the Little Eagle Sauce Country Museum had indeed been stolen overnight!

Not a single cultural relic that originally belonged to Xia Shang was left!

She really wanted to believe it was a coincidence, because it was truly too incredible, but how could there be such a coincidence in the world?

Wang Xin Xin felt her scalp tingle.

Because if this matter was truly done by the person who called, then what he said two days ago about bringing back the Netherlands photolithography machine manual wasn’t a joke either, was it?

Thinking of this, Wang Xin Xin suddenly remembered her older brother Wang Guang’s somewhat unusual reaction when she met him this morning and brought up the matter.

At that time, after hearing her account, Wang Guang not only didn’t think it was a joke, but instead sternly warned her not to tell anyone. She didn’t pay attention then, but now that she thought about it, Wang Guang’s reaction at the time was abnormal.

Wang Xin Xin herself was starting to feel a bit numb.

Her intuition told her that the photolithography machine manual should indeed have been brought back.

Wang Guang said this morning that something big had happened at the Great Science Academy, and if it were revealed, it would be treated as treason.

Now that she thought about it, that big event was very likely that they had received the photolithography machine manufacturing manual.

Other than that, Wang Xin Xin really couldn’t think of anything else that could be so serious.

Especially when she remembered that Wang Guang had also asked her if the higher-ups had talked to her, and then urged her not to run around these few days.

At the time, she was still wondering why the higher-ups would talk to her and why she couldn’t run around.

Now she realized that her older brother said that absolutely because they had received the photolithography machine manual!

That’s why when he heard her say that the guy was going to bring back the Little Eagle Sauce Museum cultural relics, he didn’t treat it as a joke!

“Oh no, such a big matter, and it’s related to me twice in a row. I won’t have to be pulled in to sign a non-disclosure agreement like my brother and them, will I…”

Wang Xin Xin suddenly felt a little nervous.

Although signing a non-disclosure agreement was nothing, she was inexplicably nervous.

Almost as soon as this thought popped into her head, there was a knock on the dormitory door, accompanied by a low voice.

“Wang Xin Xin, please come with us. We need your assistance with an investigation!”

…

At the same time, on a beach.

Lin Yang was leisurely lying on a beach chair, basking in the sun.

In his mind, the system’s voice echoed.

“Congratulations, Host, for completing the Cultural Relics Homecoming series of missions. You have received a reward of one hundred national treasure value and one achievement point.”

“One hundred national treasure value?” Lin Yang’s eyes lit up.

Although this number didn’t sound like much, in the system’s mall, a complete set of manufacturing books for a brand new 0.1 nanometer lithography machine only cost twenty national treasure value.

It’s important to know that the last time he obtained the photolithography machine manufacturing book from Netherlands and gave it to the Great Science Academy, he only received twenty national treasure value as a reward, which was just enough to exchange for the 0.1 nanometer lithography machine manufacturing book.

Although there were subsequent manufacturing rewards that hadn’t been received yet, they wouldn’t be much more.

This time, bringing the cultural relics back actually rewarded a full one hundred national treasure value, which clearly showed that these cultural relics, in the system’s evaluation, were far more valuable than Netherlands’s photolithography machine.

“As expected of our ancestors’ belongings, they are indeed precious!”

Lin Yang sighed with emotion, then asked in confusion, “System, what is an achievement point?”

He didn’t receive any achievement points for completing the last mission.

“Answering Host, achievement points are a unique special reward for completing missions. They can unlock the achievement point exclusive mall, where exclusive items can be exchanged.”

“Please note, Host, achievement points are highly valuable. Please do not waste them casually.”

“There’s an achievement point mall too? Open it and let me see!” Lin Yang was quite surprised.

Besides the national treasure value mall, there was actually an achievement point mall!

As his words fell, a virtual screen, visible only to him, appeared before him.

At the top of the screen were the four large characters “Achievement Mall”.

Below that were the redeemable items!

The first thing that caught his eye was a “Finished Version 0.1 nanometer lithography machine.”

It was priced at one achievement point.

“…” Lin Yang was stunned on the spot.

0.1 nanometer!

And it’s a finished version?!

“System, what does ‘finished version’ mean? Is it something that has already been manufactured?” Lin Yang asked.
