Zhou Zhou watched him leave.
She waited until they were far away before saying to Shi Fu, "Deputy Director, can we talk in private?"
Shi Fu knew Zhou Zhou's achievements in the field of physics. He had a good impression of her among the few laboratory heads.
Hence, he readily agreed and asked Zhou Zhou to follow him to his office.
…
Arriving at the office, Shi Fu opened the door and let Zhou Zhou find a place to sit.
He went to the water dispenser to get two glasses of water and handed one to Zhou Zhou. Then, he returned to his desk, sat down, and said with a relaxed expression, "Team Leader Zhou, why did you ask to speak in private? Just say it."
Zhou Zhou lowered her head and took a sip of water. Placing the cup on her lap, she raised her head and said with a slightly serious expression, "Deputy Director, I've received news that the reclusive families have been acting strangely… Someone has come to the independent continent."
