98: Chapter 98 Regretful Immigration, Studying Equations

Deep Blue Ocean Group had a designated location at the port in Darwin City.

Under the guidance of the port administrator, the cargo ship fleet successfully entered the port quickly.

Even Jiang Chen's small fishing boat was properly arranged.

The Weilong Destroyer was docked not far away.

Standing on the shore of the port, Jiang Chen watched a large number of Australian laborers unloading industrial goods from the ships.

These dozen or so cargo ships carried a massive amount of goods; it would take at least until late at night to finish unloading them all.

And in exchange.

It would also take at least an entire morning to load all of Australia's scarce minerals onto the cargo ships.

With all the back-and-forth, it would be about two days before they could leave the port.

In the meantime, everyone had no choice but to stay here.

"Captain Jiang, Captain Wei, let me take you to the resting place of our Deep Blue Ocean Group."

"You two have had a hard journey."

Zhang Dayong led the way, speaking to them very politely.

For this escort mission, not to mention the various costs of the destroyer, just that one Dongfeng-03 Jiang Chen fired at the pirates cost a small fortune on the spot.

Naturally, he had to take them to a hotel to rest and treat them well.

"Let's go! Jiang Chen, this should be your first time in Darwin City, right? Let President Zhang take you around."

The group was heading into the port.

Just then, a noisy commotion suddenly broke out not far away, and there was even a lot of Mandarin being spoken.

Jiang Chen looked back and saw that a large number of stowaways had been discovered inside a shipping container and were immediately pinned down by the Australian guards.

"What's going on?"

Jiang Chen and Captain Wei Changcheng were both a bit curious.

Zhang Dayong immediately sent someone to ask about it, and they returned quickly.

"It's those people from the last batch of immigrants to the United States."

"They seem to regret it, but the home country is no longer accepting them, so they chose to stow away to Australia."

Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow!

When the United States previously reported the news about the Sigma Gene Serum, there were indeed many immigrants.

But when the side effects were revealed later, no one went anymore.

Unexpectedly.

It hadn't even been a month, and those who had already gone were regretting it so much that they chose to stow away.

"They got bullied in a foreign land and now they regret it."

"Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in this world."

Captain Wei Changcheng learned the cause and effect and couldn't help but shake his head.

Dragon Country citizenship is not that easy to obtain; for those who give it up and want to get it back, the probability is zero.

A few years ago, a Nobel Prize winner received a Dragon Country green card and was so happy that they showed it off on social media.

And that was only because the person had enough contributions and fame, and had lived in the country for a long time.

As for others, they have to wait in line to apply slowly.

The quota each year is not large.

"Don't worry, they will regret it even more later on."

Jiang Chen smiled faintly.

Life No. 1 Serum is already under development.

Once it is commercialized and mass-produced, the Dragon Country green card, which was already difficult to obtain, will only become more highly sought after.

When they find out about this, they will probably be so angry they'll vomit blood.

The group left.

They went to the Deep Blue Ocean Group's designated resting place in Darwin City, the Hilton.

Inside the Hilton Hotel.

Jiang Chen was eating a buffet.

Suddenly, he received a message from Xue Yao.

Xue Yao (* / ω \ * ) : Are you there?

Jiang Chen ( • ̀ ω • ́ ) ✧ : Eating.

Xue Yao ( ⊙ ▽ ⊙ ) ♦ : Stop eating for a second, send me the abs and pecs to see.

Jiang Chen _ |  ̄ | ● : Stop messing around, I'm eating in Darwin City right now!

Xue Yao (  ̄ ▽  ̄ ) ~ * : Darwin? Is that the Darwin in Australia? Can you eat kangaroos?

Jiang Chen ⊙ ﹏ ⊙ ∥ : No. Have you found a job recently?

Xue Yao ( ^ _ − ) ☆ : Found one! Remember to send me the answer to the linear equation in one variable after you finish eating!

"..."

Jiang Chen was speechless.

Has it become trendy for female college students to solve linear equations in one variable lately?

Meanwhile.

Xue Yao also put her phone down with satisfaction.

She was currently at her parents' house, keeping them company while watching TV.

After half a month of intensive training with the Dragon Group, she could rest for another day.

And!

In a few days, she was going to the Zhujiang Port to test a destroyer.

If she got an excellent rating for the whole process, she would be able to train on cruisers and aircraft carriers next.

After sending the message to Jiang Chen, she went to take a shower.

Not long after.

Her phone popped up with a few messages.

[Image, Image.]

[The answer to the linear equation in one variable has been sent to your phone, don't tell anyone else, especially your best friend.]

Qin Guohua and Xue Yao's mother glanced at it unintentionally.

The two only saw the image message pop up but did not see the image, but they did see the second sentence.

The two looked at each other in confusion.

"Linear equation in one variable?"

"These two have both graduated from college, why are they still doing linear equations in one variable?"

Qin Guohua looked confused.

Xue Yao's mother thought for a moment and said, "I know now."

"Hmm?"

"Isn't it the college entrance examination recently? Maybe Xue Yao and Jiang Chen watched the college entrance exam math, and when they saw it, they were probably struck by a whim, remembering their hard-working years from many years ago, so they..."

Xue Yao's mother was speaking enthusiastically.

Xue Yao walked out of the bathroom.

"Mom, what are you talking about? What whim?"

Xue Yao's mother looked at her daughter knowingly, pointed at the phone and said, "Don't hide it from us, you and Jiang Chen are doing linear equations in one variable, right? I saw it all."

"Ah?!"

"What did you see?!"

Xue Yao was shocked when she heard this.

She even dropped the towel she was using to dry her hair.

She pounced over.

She quickly snatched back her phone (and her dignity).

Even if she were to be shattered to pieces, she had to preserve her innocence!

"I saw you and Jiang Chen discussing linear equations in one variable. I mean, how old are you, still doing linear equations in one variable? You haven't forgotten even this, have you?"

Qin Guohua looked helpless.

Even though they graduated from college, they shouldn't have forgotten linear equations in one variable.

And they were even discussing it!

"I think it's quite good. Young people should discuss linear equations in one variable with each other more often; just treat it as reviewing old math problems."

Xue Yao's mother, however, disagreed.

How many college students just know how to play games and watch short videos after graduation.

Her own daughter still knows how to study linear equations in one variable with her boyfriend; that's already very excellent, okay!

Xue Yao looked at the two elders, who were actually arguing about linear equations in one variable.

Only then did she realize that they were really talking about linear equations in one variable.

She suppressed her pounding heart, let out a soft breath, and said, "Mom, I'm going back to my room."

"Ah, it's only nine o'clock, not watching TV?"

"Not watching anymore, I need to study this linear equation in one variable properly; I can't let my youthful, lively, smart, and cute brain get rusty."

Xue Yao's eyes were firm, and her tone was determined. Clutching her phone, she quickly returned to her room.

Seeing this, Xue Yao's mother looked very gratified.

"What a studious little girl! She truly is my daughter."
