129: Chapter 129 Promoting Festival Culture

"It's not some outrageous profession, but it really can't be done domestically."

"It's... being a Mercenary."

After Long Anyou said this, the smiles on Elder Jiang's and the others' faces quickly became difficult to decipher.

One by one, their smiles froze on their faces.

For a moment, it was impossible to tell if these people were crying or laughing...

Elder Jiang and the others felt as if they were left bewildered in the wind for the first time.

What kind of feeling was that...

Mer... Mercenary?

The corners of their mouths twitched.

After their previous self-check, they knew they weren't hallucinating; this matter had truly reached their ears.

Upon hearing those three words, they found it hard to accept for a moment.

You're a perfectly good University Student; even if you don't focus on your studies, you actually went out to be a Mercenary?

Isn't that just seeking death!

Silence.

A long silence!

"Are you sure?"

"He really went to be a Mercenary?"

Elder Jiang and the others were still quite skeptical.

Are University Students nowadays really this formidable?

In their era, the international situation was quite turbulent, but among the hundreds of millions of people in the Dragon Kingdom, they had never heard of any intellectual playing the game this hard.

Even now, Lin Heng's appearance directly shattered their worldview.

Even in today's world, where the internet is developed enough for 600 million people to show off their pasts at will, they had absolutely never seen something so mind-blowing.

In response, Long Anyou gave a heavy nod.

"Yes!"

Hiss...!

After receiving the affirmative answer, everyone's expressions became strange.

They didn't expect there to actually be such an exaggerated person!

Soon, their brows were tightly furrowed.

"Should we quickly dispatch a task force to bring Lin Heng back?"

"I think that works. Lin Heng is likely just young and impetuous, getting involved with foreign mercenaries without knowing the full story. For his personal safety, we must take action!"

Someone quickly nodded and made the decision.

"I'll go notify the military right away. We must send the sharpest unit; they won't be able to just stand by and watch when the time comes."

"Fortunately, the Golden Triangle isn't far from here. We can still get him back within a week."

Others also began to offer suggestions.

They felt quite regretful about Lin Heng's situation.

He was clearly a rising star in scientific research.

To think he had gone astray before meeting them. If they had known such a young man existed earlier, they wouldn't have cared about anything else and would have hurried to bring him into their laboratory!

Hearing their conversation, Long Anyou laughed until he was in tears.

"Director Long, what are you laughing at?"

Someone soon asked in confusion.

Upon hearing this, Long Anyou quickly wiped the tears of laughter from his eyes.

He pursed his dry lips and said bitterly:

"You might not know, but Lin Heng wasn't actually led astray by those outsiders."

Hearing this, everyone was shocked.

What!?

They looked at each other.

"Could it be... that Lin Heng actively sought out those mercenaries and joined them voluntarily?"

For a moment, everyone began to hesitate.

If that were truly the case, they would have to consider Lin Heng's personality. If he was a dangerous individual, they wouldn't just hand over the laboratory to him so easily.

If Lin Heng got unhappy and blew up their lab, where would they go to seek justice?

At this moment, Long Anyou felt his lips grow even more bitter.

Finally, he spoke in a tone that even he was reluctant to accept:

"Actually, it's neither... It's Lin Heng. He formed a Mercenary group himself and then took a mission to the Golden Triangle..."

Pfft!

Everyone almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

They stared at each other in disbelief.

Afterwards, Long Anyou felt that these people's hearts were now strong enough to accept Lin Heng's affairs, so he took out a thick stack of documents.

"Actually, we've been monitoring Lin Heng for a long time. What happened with you guys was purely an accident."

"I didn't expect the data he brought out to be so precious..."

"These are all the files on Lin Heng. You can take a look; the stories on them are absolutely thrilling."

After putting the items down, a bitter smile appeared on Long Anyou's face.

Finally, someone could accept these things with him; he no longer had to bear this burden alone.

After that, Elder Jiang and the others looked at each other.

They didn't hesitate and directly grabbed some of the documents to check.

However, upon seeing the information within, their faces turned as pale as a sheet of paper!

This...

"How is this possible?"

"You call this a damn University Student?"

By the end, even an old professor who usually paid the most attention to etiquette couldn't help but curse.

Lin Heng's scope of business couldn't just be called broad; it had reached a terrifying level.

An international war criminal? What on earth?

He's already been jointly wanted by the United Nations??

They initially thought Lin Heng was just being idle and that hanging out with mercenaries was impressive enough, but compared to any of the items in here, that was just playing in the mud!

Truly!

Poverty limited their imagination.

Of course, this 'poverty' didn't refer to financial poverty.

For a moment, everyone was speechless.

Silence.

A long silence.

Not a single person spoke.

They all looked at each other with expressions that were grim to the extreme...

They hadn't expected Lin Heng to have such a rich past.

Their previous guesses about Lin Heng were simply a direct display of their own intellectual poverty!

Everyone's expression was somewhat unnatural.

"Ahem..."

Soon, Elder Jiang gave a light cough.

He cleared his throat and continued:

"So, according to the timeline, I wonder when Lin Heng will arrive?"

"Well..."

Long Anyou checked the time.

"Children's Day just passed; he should be back soon. If you can't wait, I can help convey your message to him."

Heh, hehe...

Good grief.

The corners of Elder Jiang's and the others' mouths twitched slightly.

Initially, they felt this matter was nothing.

However, as soon as they heard Children's Day, everyone's composure broke.

It seemed like every time Lin Heng went out, it was during a holiday?

An image quickly surfaced in everyone's minds.

Every time there was a holiday in the Dragon Kingdom, Lin Heng would disappear for a while.

And the files already recorded what he went off to do.

Is he going off to promote our country's cultural holidays??
