Chapter 970: A Watch That Was Left Behind Her Parents

Upstairs.

Despite returning to the room, Gu Mang had no intention of sleeping. She took out her black backpack from the cabinet and tipped the contents out on the bed before searching through the pile of mess and picking up a mechanical watch.

It was the only thing that her parents had left behind for her. It had an emergency button and a thermosensory function and could also extract key information.

After giving it some thought, she picked up the rectangular metal box as well and walked over to the coffee table where she sat down on the carpet and turned on the table lamp. She then took out the tools from the box and carefully disassembled the dial of the mechanical watch with them.

As the parts were all really tiny, she took her time disassembling them lest they get damaged. Thus, it took her over two minutes before she finally removed the back cover.

Gu Mang frowned as she examined its complicated internal structure. When she could not find anything unusual about it at a glance, she moved on to check the dial’s thickness. Some parts appeared to be a double layer, but the differences in thickness were only about 0.1mm.

She continued to take out the parts one by one and she found a small piece of paper sandwiched inside a part that was made of a special metal. I thought I’d just try my luck and see if there’s anything inside the watch, but I didn’t expect to really find something.

She paused for several seconds before examining the piece of paper and carefully unfolding it with the help of a pair of tweezers. As the paper was really thin, she moved delicately lest she tear it.

The paper, once spread open, was half the size of a fingernail and it seemed to be made of some sort of special material. It also had a black and blurry line on it that seemed to be a record of something.

Using a magnifying glass, Gu Mang realized that it was actually two lines of special symbols. It seemed to be a code for something.

The bedroom door was pushed open right then, interrupting her from her train of thoughts. She looked toward the door to see Lu Chengzhou slowly walking over.

“I knew you’d still be awake.” He sat down next to her and wrapped an arm around her waist as he looked at the parts on the coffee table. “Why did you take the watch apart?”

“This is all my parents left behind for me. Gu Si and I can’t keep hiding from the Gu family and the Elders’ Association, so I thought this watch might be of some help.” Gu Mang pursed her lips. I have no other information on my hands anyway.

Lu Chengzhou picked one of the parts up with the tweezers and studied it with the magnifying glass. He looked through all the parts in ten minutes. Putting the tools down, he looked at Gu Mang and asked, “Are your parents like you? Are they talented at everything as well?”

“Huh?” Gu Mang did not know what he was asking about.

Lu Chengzhou pointed at the pile of parts on the table with his chin. “These are all projects that have just shown some results in the special material institutes, yet you already have the finished products. What’s more, this watch isn’t new.” Its technology is more than ten years ahead of current technology.

“No. 14 Research Center only successfully developed this synthetic material six months ago. I invested nearly ten billion yuan into the research,” He continued speaking as he pointed the tweezers at one of the round parts. I stayed there for almost half a year and this material was only developed with the help of six research teams.

“I doubt Jijing Island made this material,” he added. Jijing Island usually announces their research findings to the public so that they could sell them to other countries to get funds. So this material must’ve been developed by Gu Mang’s parents and never announced.

Gu Mang took a moment to speak. “Actually, I didn’t have much contact with my parents as they were very busy. They would only come back once in a month or two to visit me, Gu Yin, and Gu Si, but they would bring back a lot of books for me.”

Lu Chengzhou made Gu Mang lean against his chest so that she could sit more comfortably.

“I didn’t know what they were up to,” said Gu Mang. “As you know, there are a lot of geniuses on Jijing Island who are like us. The speed of their recovery is pretty fast too.”

Thus, it was only normal that her parents were like her and were good at everything. On top of that, the fact that her parents could produce material like this a decade ago proved how advanced Jijing Island was in terms of technology back then.
