The next morning.
The Sea Salt Lizard moved across the calm water's surface.
Jiang Xiu was apparently not very familiar with the location of the Research and Protection Center for the Shuilu Yana species, and he had to use navigation to reach his destination throughout the journey.
At the gate adorned with a statue of Shuilu Yana, Dr. Jiang and his assistant had been waiting for quite some time.
When Dr. Jiang saw the shorter figure among the two approaching people, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly greeted them with enthusiasm,
"Qiao Sang, I've finally met you!"
"Dr. Jiang?" Looking at the uncle in the white lab coat in front of her, Qiao Sang called out with some hesitation.
There was no helping it; the uncle was accompanied by a somewhat younger man.
After all, this was a world where you couldn't easily discern someone's age or identity just by looking at their face.
At this moment, a living example was standing right beside her.
"It's me," Dr. Jiang said with a smile.
