Chapter 627
The International Centre for Physics is a scientific and technical organisation founded in 1932.
The first president was a former winner of the International Prize for Physical Sciences.
The main aim was to help physics scientists from different countries and to support the new generation of young people to carry on physics.
However, almost a hundred years had pa*sed, the president and other senior officials had changed several times, and a few of them did not even know anything about physics, so not anyone could always keep the original intention.
Zuo Li suddenly realised that he had overlooked a grey area.
Within the academic world, there was such a thing happening.
The Imperial University had even had it.
For an experimental project, the supervisor let the graduate student under him do the project and then directly took away all the results.
The graduate student did not graduate and dared not speak out even though he was angry.
It was just that Zuo Li did not expect this kind of thing to happen to Ying Zigui.
What’s more, he didn’t expect that even the International Physics Centre would do such a thing.
This was simply outright theft!
Zuo Li stared at the name Elizabeth Laurent for a full five seconds and dialed the official phone number of the International Centre for Physics.
It took five rings before it picked up, “Hello, Professor Zuo Li.”
“What did you say in the beginning? My student’s paper didn’t pa*s the review and was sent back to me.” Zuo Li restrained his anger, “Then why did you use someone else’s name on her paper in the latest issue of your scientific journal?”
“Because this Elizabeth is from the Laurent family and is so powerful and overwhelming that we at Imperial University can’t compete? You just feel free to bully our students?!”
“Greetings, Professor Zuo.” The staff member paused and resumed politely and courteously, “We are not at all clear about what you are talking about, the International Physics Centre is always fair, have you made a mistake?”
“Mistaken?” Zuo Li laughed in exasperation, “Fine, you must remember what you said about this.”
He hung up the phone, unable to restrain his anger at all, and immediately booked a flight to M on his phone.
After Zuo Li simply packed up a bit, he hurriedly headed out.
“Hey hey hey, Old Zuo.” Teacher Chen chased out, “It’s so late, where are you going?”
“I’m going to m country, the International Physics Centre.” Zuo Li pressed his breath, “Ying’s paper has been impersonated, I can’t let her carry the reputation of plagiarism.”
The journal released by the International Centre for Physics happened to be a week before the celestial body he had sent for review.
Once the two journals were released globally, the entire academic community would know that two papers were identical.
The International Centre for Physics has been building up its prestige for a long time, plus Ying is really a newcomer within the academic community.
Even if she was the overall winner of the first ISC last year, no one would believe her.
This was to cut off her scientific career.
Teacher Chen’s expression changed: “Impostor? Who has the guts to do that?”
How dare you even take Ying Zigui’s thesis?
“The Laurent family.” Zuo Li pushed open the door and stressed heavily, “Not even if it’s from the Luo Lang family.”
**
At this time, on Pine Mountain.
The battle was over and the wind was calm.
The corpse of the Xie family’s Grand Elder didn’t need to be in Ying Ziyi’s care.
ibi also had agents and detectives stationed specifically on the imperial side.
After Fu Yunshen gave the order, they quickly came and took away the body of the Xie family’s Elders.
Fifth Moon set up another formation, cleaned up the mountain top and followed Ying Ziyi down the mountain.
The group of fortune tellers did not leave and waited at the entrance to the attraction.
When they saw the girl coming out, they all went to meet her.
Those fortune tellers who had spoken up and accused Ying Zidian were all ashamed and apologised and thanked her.
“Thank you, Master!”
“Thank you, Master, for saving me from the fire.”
“If it weren’t for the presence of the master, that old thing from the Xie family would have had its way today.”
None of them had heard of the Great Heavenly Sacrifice Formation before Ying Ziji said it, having been in the world of trigonometry for so many years in vain.
Luck is very important to everyone.
Otherwise, there would not be a saying in the entertainment industry that “small success depends on promotion, big success depends on fate”.
The luck of a fortune teller is even more important than that of an ordinary person, because they often help others to change their karma.
If their luck was taken away by the Xie family, their longevity would be reduced.
Everyone’s heart palpitated.
An old man looked the girl up and down, his eyes lit up and he immediately stepped forward, respectfully, “Dare I ask if this master is also the master who beheaded that snake in the imperial capital a few months ago?”
Ying Zidian looked up and didn’t hide, nodding his head, “Yes.”
“So it really is a master!” The old man was pleasantly surprised, “I wonder which school the master belongs to? Is it the Xuan Kong school or the Eight Mansions school?”
There were four major schools in the Feng Shui world today.
The founding of this Eight Mansions School dates back to the Tang Dynasty, more than a thousand years ago.
Ying Zigui thought about it, “I’ve studied quite a variety of things, so I don’t think either one counts.”
Before she came to Earth, feng shui and trigonometry were already well developed in the East.
Fifth Moon puffed out her chest plate, but she was proud: “This is my master.”
“Master is Miss Yue’s master?” The old man was startled and became even more respectful, “Please accept my obeisance, senior.”
The world of trigonometry and the world of ancient martial arts were the same.
Anyone who was high in strength, even if they had to be young, had to be addressed as senior.
Whether it was beheading the Grand Elder of the Xie Family today, or beheading the Great Snake that day.
Such transcendent means, respect her as if she were a god.
“You’re welcome.” Ying Ziji took a step back and avoided his salute, “It’s getting late, you should all go back.”
The fortune tellers were obviously a little reluctant to leave, but they all said goodbye one by one.
Since they were Fifth Moon’s masters, they would still be able to meet again later.
In the car park, a black Maserati was parked.
Fu Yunshen opened the door and his peach blossom eyes raised, “Yoyo, get in.”
Fifth month touched her head, a little embarra*sed: “Master, her boyfriend is good.”
Fu Yunshen glanced at Fifth Moon and curled his lips: “Hmm? You’ve changed your name? You’ve taken on another disciple?”
Ying Ziji fastened her seat belt and yawned, “I picked it up by hand.”
Fu Yunshen took out a piece of chocolate and threw it over, “OK, little disciple, your master’s boyfriend gave you a meeting gift.”
Fifth Moon: “……”
Once again, she was bewildered.
Fu Yunshen turned the steering wheel: “How many apprentices are there?”
Ying Zidian thought for a moment, “The fourth.”
Fifth Moon:”???”
What?
She’s already the fourth in line?
“Well, let me guess.” Fu Yun Shen lifted his eyes and smiled lowly, “The number one ancient martial artist, Feng Xiu, is also my little friend’s disciple?”
Fifth Moon’s mouth opened into an O shape: “…… Crap?”
Her car door, her legs were a little weak.
Not only was she in the same generation as her own ancestor, but she was also in the same generation as the number one ancient martial artist.
“Smart, sir.” Ying raised an eyebrow and was silent for another moment, “Unfortunately even I don’t know where he is.”
“We’ll find him.” Fu Yunshen raised his hand and stroked her head, “Even if we can’t find him, there’s still me, don’t worry.”
Ying Zigui gave a muffled sound, “We still have time.”

Meanwhile.
ibi headquarters.
The footage on Matsuyama was cleared and the negatives were sent directly to ibi director Li Xini.
The administration of ibi was also divided into two main parts, one dedicated to fighting crime.
The other part is responsible for keeping the supernatural down.
“Wow, this girl is fierce.” Anthony tsked after watching the video, “Can I make a copy to go back and enjoy alone? Let me see how Chinese kung fu is practised.”
He also wanted to learn Chinese kung fu.
But it’s true that not everyone in China has the talent for ancient martial arts, let alone a Westerner.
Anthony envied Fu Yunshen, who could use his inner strength to float on water and fly.
Li Xini’s hand gave a beat and spoke quietly, “Look more carefully.”
“Look at what?” Anthony looked again, “Wow, this girl has a nice body too.”
“This is Mrs. Chief.” Sidney Lee gently reminded, “You take it back and treasure it, don’t you want to die?”
Anthony: “……”
A few seconds later, he suddenly reacted and covered Lee Sini’s mouth, “If you dare to tell the chief about this, I’ll cut you!”
He had only returned from the Seventh Special Region after a long time, he absolutely could not be sent out again.
Li Xini couldn’t say anything, he could only gesture with his eyes.
Hit the money.
“Who the hell believes you! You fooled me last time, old shame.” Anthony was indignant, “Forget it, just send it, I’ll go and tell the chief myself.”
He took out his mobile phone and called Fu Yunshen, “Sir, I’m going to the Seventh Region, requesting to be rea*signed. ”
Fu Yunshen: “……”
His subordinate was really a bit sick.
**
The other side.
Eight hours later, Zuo Li arrived in country M.
He didn’t even close his eyes on the way, nor did he eat, he just bought a cup of black coffee and rushed off to the International Physical Center.
He waited outside the door until nine o’clock, and when the door opened, Zuo Li immediately barged in.
“Where’s your president?” He sneered, “Tell him to get out immediately!”
Chapter 628
“Greetings, this gentleman.” The receptionist froze and then frowned, “You want to see the President, do you have an appointment?”
There was a detachment in her politeness, “If you don’t have an appointment, please make one and then I will help you you arrange a time.”
The implication was that the chairman was very busy and not everyone could meet him.
Zuo Li stared at her for a moment and walked inside without saying anything.
The receptionist was anxious: “Sir, you can’t go in!”
But she couldn’t stop Zuo Li at all, so she could only start calling in a hurry: “Security! Security!”
Before the security guards could come out, a voice rang out first.
“Professor Zuo, is it?” It was a young man who was standing at the top of the stairs, “Please come up, the president is in his office.”
Upstairs.
In the president’s office.
The current president of the International Physics Centre was not a physicist by birth.
Once he was a businessman.
But he was so well liked that he managed to become president when the term changed.
When an outsider became the president of the International Physics Centre, it was destined to be rotten internally.
“Professor Zuo, long time no see.” The president smiled, “Come, sit down, I just got in some good tea from your China, have a drink.”
Zuo Li didn’t sit down and got straight to the point: “My student’s thesis, you sold it to the Laurent family?”
The president’s hand gave a beat and raised his eyes: “Yes, how about it?”
“Well?” Zuo Li laughed in exasperation.
He jerked forward, grabbed the chairman’s collar and slapped him on the face.
The chairman was shocked and angry: “Zuo Li, you’re crazy! Do you still want to be in the physics world?!”
“How much did you sell it for?” Zuo Li was not relieved and sneered, “You sold the paper and then deliberately put it in this month’s scientific journal, didn’t you?”
“In order to collide with my student and get her into a plagiarism fiasco!”
“Professor Zuo, that’s your problem.” The president smiled faintly, “You had to submit your student’s paper to the Centre for Celestial Institutions on O Continent again, what does that have to do with us, did we force you to do it?”
“It was your redundancy that got your student into the plagiarism fiasco, I also want to ask you, how come you want to let cut off your student’s research path so much?”
Zuo Li’s fingers trembled: “You guys are really shameless.”
He knew there was no need to talk any further, and turned around to leave.
“Professor Zuo, if you don’t think of you, think of your students too.” Behind him, the president’s cold voice came, “You should think carefully, the Laurent family, which power in this world can afford to offend!”
Without a word, Zuo Li left the president’s office.
The president was still sitting in his office chair, his gaze obscure.
The door was pushed open once more.
It was the vice president.
“Chairman, this Chinese man can’t really do anything, can he?” The Vice President came over and frowned, “If we let him make a scene, we’ll be in trouble too. ”
In every circle there are more or less default grey areas.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t speak up.
If it really got to the point where everyone knew about it, the face of the International Centre for Physics would be lost and impartiality would be lost.
“I’ve just given him the message to be a bit self-aware.” The president blew on his tea and spoke indifferently, “If things go badly, you’ll see if the Laurent family will let him and his students off the hook.”
“The Laurent family are the kings of continent O. They have a lot of tricks up their sleeves, is he able to fight them off?”
Elizabeth Laurent, in the circle of the upper cla*s aristocrats of continent O, was one of the most important.
Once the Pazzi family fell, there was no family that could compete with the Laurent family.
It was a no-brainer who to choose between Ying Zidian, the isc champion who had only just entered the world of research, and the young lady of the Laurent family.
“It’s still the president who has the foresight.” The vice president finally smiled, “Giving a scientific research newcomer’s thesis to Miss Elizabeth both gave us $300 million in funding and sold Miss Elizabeth a favour.”
Elizabeth was also just one paper away from being officially established in the academic world.
They had also helped to find it for a long time, but of course it was impossible to bring those old professors’.
As it happened, Zuo Li delivered Ying’s thesis.
“It’s more than that.” The president shook his head, “You don’t know that this Miss Elizabeth, was admired by that powerhouse of the Laurent family, and this powerhouse even had a special contact to get her into Professor Helvin’s lab.”
“We are not only selling Miss Elisabeth’s face, but also the face of the Laurent family in power and Professor Helvin.”
After all, Elisabeth was nowhere near good enough compared to the latter two.
The Vice President drew a backward breath, “So that’s how it is, this Miss Elizabeth is really something.”
“But you have a point.” The president narrowed his eyes, “This Zuo Li is a rising star leader in the physics world, it’s hard not to guarantee that he might know someone.”
“I’ve heard that he and Helvin seem to know each other as well, so let’s hold him for now.”
As long as the two scientific journals and magazines were published worldwide, even if Zuo Li could produce evidence that Ying’s paper predated Elizabeth, it wouldn’t wash.
All they had to do was say that it was a forgery.
How could Zuo Li and his students still turn the tables?
The president took a sip of tea, “Send someone to take care of it, lock it up, take good care of it, and release it after the journal is released.”
**
The airport.
Zuo Li was calling that celestial institution centre in O Chau: “Yes, there is some problem, please pull down my student’s paper first, I will bear all the losses.”
Zuo Li hung up the phone and then had to call Ying Zigui.
It was his carelessness and lack of thoughtfulness that had led to Ying Zidian’s thesis being stolen.
But now he had failed to protect his student and had to let her sort it out herself, and he felt very bad about it.
In his teaching career, Zuo Li had never encountered anything that made him feel so powerless.
However, before the number could be pressed out, his neck suddenly went numb.
His vision then plunged into darkness before his eyes.
The two men sent by the International Physics Centre carried Zuo Li out carefully.
The others around the airfield saw it, but were not surprised and withdrew their gaze indifferently.
**
Two days later.
o Continent.
j country.
The headquarters of the venus group is located here.
Ying Ziyi and Fu Yunshen left the airport together and got into the car.
Ying Ziji took a look at the equipment inside the car and raised her eyebrows: “Do you like collecting cars?”
When she and Xiu Yu had participated in the Manson family’s racing competition together, Fu Yunshen had casually given her a t-family car that had been out of racing for twenty years.
It wasn’t just about having money.
“Hmm?” Fu Yunshen ruffled his eyes, “This old man of mine, I still have hobbies.”
He turned the steering wheel and headed to the hotel downtown.
On the way, the car phone automatically picked up.
It was a video call, and the person on the screen was Li Xini.
“Reporting, sir, the subject of protection has not yet appeared, continuing surveillance.”
“Good, got it.”
The video flickered for a moment, then ended.
Ying Ziyi turned his head, “Protection target?”
“Right.” Fu Yunshen’s fingers tapped on the steering wheel, his eyes deep, “Just a short while ago, the top fifty of all hunters on the nok forum received a private letter anonymously offering a bounty.”
“The target of the bounty was a six year old girl, but without a proper face, the hunters were out in force, I told ibi to keep an eye on them, not to be able to hurt this little girl anymore.”
This little girl, might be their only way to get to that mysterious location.
But until now, there had been no news of which little girl had died or been injured.
It could only be that those hunters hadn’t found it yet.
Ying Ziji raised his eyes, “A six-year-old girl?”
“Yes.” Fu Yunshen said, “Yaoyao, I don’t suppose you have a hunter status account, do you?”
Ying Zidian shook her head slightly, “No.”
The account of the Divine Reckoner was not on the hunter list either.
After changing the rules of the trading area that day, she hadn’t logged into the nok forum again either.
“I’m also quite surprised as to who she had actually messed with.” Fu Yunshen faded, “Worth a billion-dollar bounty.”
Ying Zidian wrinkled her brow, “I’ll have someone look at that too.”
She forwarded the message to the Vice Chancellor and asked Norton University to start testing as well.
Not long after, the car pulled up in front of the hotel.
Fu Yunshen didn’t get out of the car, his arm on the window, “Yoyo, the room is booked, I need to go to the J presidential palace for something.”
“Okay.” Ying Ziyi nodded, “I’ll go out and play.”
Fu Yunshen understood: “Take it easy.”
The two of them separated at the hotel.
Ying Zidian changed his clothes and went to the shopping street in the city centre.
The streets are busy and full of traffic.
Ying Ziji went to a coffee shop to buy a cup of hot chocolate.
As soon as she came out, her ears suddenly twitched and she looked towards the right front.
There was a little girl dressed in black running wildly this way.
Within seconds, a “bang” exploded into the air, stunning everyone around her.
This is a cosmopolitan city, and although J has a permit to carry guns.
But it was impossible for a gunfight to break out on the streets of the capital.
Pa*sers-by screamed and began to run for their lives.
The cars on the road also went out of control.
But strangely enough, the bullets were accurate.
They weren’t aimed at any other pa*sers-by, just at the little girl, and they didn’t even deviate.
A marksman.
In an instant, however, Ying Ziyang could tell that this little girl was the target of the bounty, which was already hotter than her and Fu Yunshen.
With as many as two hundred hunters out, the nok forum was an unprecedented sensation.
“Hurry! Get out of the way!” The little girl ran as fast as she could, shouting as she ran, “You get down, get down! Don’t hit you!”
As she spoke, her body dodged the bullets with great agility.
She was so agile that she didn’t even look like a six-year-old girl.
Even those ibi agents who had undergone special training would never be able to dodge every bullet with such precision as she did.
Ying Zidian didn’t dodge.
But those bullets couldn’t hit her either.
Her eyelashes lowered and her hand clenched.
There were memories of a very long time ago that were gradually about to break out of the seal.
Until a loud popping sound came from the distance.
“Boom!”
Just five hundred metres away, there were sharpshooters stationed on a hundred-storey building, firing sniper rifles at the little girl.
“Nice one, there.” The little girl jumped up and looked back, “This girl has really dug up your ancestral graves!”
That was what she said, but she looked calm and then raised her hand.
There was no gun in the little girl’s hand, only a watch.
On the watch was a gold lacy letter –
leangle
She turned a button on the watch.
Instantly, the watch projected a blue web of lasers.
“Buzz!”
The blue laser net imprisoned the bullet firmly.
Soon, the bullet, which was capable of blasting a building, landed on the ground.
The little girl muttered, “It’s a good thing I have a lot of equipment on me, or else I would really be screwed by you crazy people, but bye.”
She continued to run on, pa*sing by Ying Zigui and greeted her specifically, “Kid, awesome awesome, everyone else ran away and you’re still so calm.”
“We must have a destiny, when I get rid of these people, we’ll get to know each other, today is not the time, wow, they’re so mean, I’ll run on.”
But the little girl’s legs didn’t make it out before she was lifted up by Ying Ziji.
She was a little confused, but quickly reacted.
“Hey, hey, hey, although I’m only six years old now, I’m definitely older than you how can you lift me up just like that without any image? You don’t know how to respect the elderly ah kid I’m talking to you …… ah hey!”
The little girl suddenly landed on the ground and let out a scream of dismay.
Rubbing her bottom, she found herself thrown onto a seat in front of a convenience store.
She didn’t know why, but when she tried to get up, her legs felt like they were paralyzed and she couldn’t move.
The little girl froze and lifted her hand.
It was as if her hand had touched some kind of barrier too.
The bullets that were coming after her were all blocked by this barrier.
It floated in mid-air.
Inner strength outward, protective barrier!
Ying Ziji rolled up her sleeves and faintly: “Stay put.”
