Chapter 2 Research Association I called the phone, but no one answered for a while.
No one answered the call the first time, so Chen Lin endured his temper and called again.
He was sure the number was still in use, but the person on the other end of the line didn't answer.
'Is it possible that the Fifth Research Association has been abolished? '
While Chen Lin was confused, his cell phone buzzed to remind him that the call had been connected.
"Hello?"
An extremely impatient voice suddenly came from the other end of the phone, seemingly very angry at Chen Lin for making this call.
"If you have anything to say, tell me quickly, I'm still busy here!"
Chen Lin was somewhat caught off guard by what happened after the call was connected.
He thought that after the call was connected, the person on the other end would at least have a kinder attitude, even if what he said was nothing more than fantasy! However, Chen Lin still read out the names of the numbers in the phone book.
"Are you the Fifth Research Association of Folklore Affairs?"
"Yes!"
"Are you considered an official department?"
"Seriously... just tell me if you have anything to do, and I'll record it for you."
The other party spoke calmly, and there were some noises accompanying his words. Some people even heard sounds like "I'm sorry" and so on.
Chen Lin suddenly realized what the person opposite was doing.
Emotions are fishing and playing poker! However, he still asked cautiously: "So you accept reports of all kinds of weird things?"
"Oh, please report something...pass! Our association is currently strapped for funds..."
The voice on the phone seemed cold and indifferent, "If you have anything to say, just tell me and we will verify it based on the situation."
Chen Lin took a deep breath, and then briefly described the matter of opening the portal to the other end of the phone.
As a result, the person on the other end of the phone was not only not surprised at all, but after listening to it, he calmly replied to Chen Lin - 'So that's it! '
"Okay, we understand. You can go back and wait for notification."
His words were extremely perfunctory, and he didn't take what Chen Lin said seriously at all! Chen Lin naturally heard the perfunctory tone on the other end of the phone, and he laughed out loud in anger.
"But you didn't even ask for my address, name, contact information, etc... How will you contact me then? This is still a landline phone number!"
"Oh, why are there so many things...I've seen people like you a lot. If you say you made a portal to come out, who would believe it?"
"Where did the portal come from? How could there be such a thing as a portal in this world? I suggest you go to the hospital and get a brain checkup!"
Several people chuckled from the opposite side, obviously amused by the words.
Chen Lin was a little stunned by the words on the other side of the phone. He really didn't expect that the other side didn't believe everything he said.
He didn't even mean to come out and verify it - because the other party didn't believe it at all!
"But I can really open the portal!"
Chen Lin's tone was a little angry, "Since you are an official department that accepts this kind of information, you should verify it before drawing any conclusions, right?"
"Record my story, I ask you to send someone to verify it!"
"Otherwise I will file a complaint against you!"
The person on the other end of the phone couldn't help laughing after hearing this. He was about to mock Chen Lin, but suddenly stopped.
"Okay, I just need to go out. You can ask for the address of the person who called. Xiao Liu and I will go see him then." "Don't make another eye-catching complaint. It will make us in the limelight again." …”
"President, are you serious? It's quite troublesome to make a trip."
"It's like running away on business."
"……Ok, I see!"
Perhaps the sound insulation effect of the landline phone's microphone was not that strong. Chen Lin heard almost every word of the conversation between the two people on the other end of the phone.
This made his anger quickly subside, and he somewhat understood why the man's attitude was like this.
This research association was most likely established in the 80s, and based on the conversation just now, it is speculated that this so-called fifth research association has not discovered any real superpowers or superpowers over the years! Given the general development trends and perceptions of the entire country over the years, it is really not easy for this so-called fifth research association to have produced no results for decades and has not been disbanded.
If you call yourself, you will undoubtedly be identified as a liar.
If he hadn't said he wanted to complain at the end, the other party would never have sent someone out! "Tell me your city, phone number and name, and we will send someone to meet you within a week."
The man on the other end of the phone seemed more dedicated, and the sound of turning pages could be heard.
He should be preparing to record Chen Lin's detailed information.
Chen Lin stopped talking to the man and quickly reported his location and contact information.
The person on the other side politely signaled Chen Lin to wait for contact and quickly hung up the phone.
However, Chen Lin could still feel that the other party did not take what he said seriously.
After all - who in modern society believes this stuff!
Believe it or not, Chen Lin has already done what he should do.
After hanging up the phone, he immediately went to the company's supervisor to apply for a week-long vacation.
The supervisor was very talkative and didn't even ask Chen Lin what he was going to do.
Sitting on the subway home, Chen Lin carefully protected his left hand and tried his best to ensure that he did not touch any flat objects.
Or even any item! He had absolutely no guarantee whether his left hand would be effective on living creatures at this time. Although there was no problem in touching himself, he did not dare to risk trying this on others.
If one accidentally causes the other party to explode on the spot... then the rest of his life will be really sad.
After carefully returning to the downstairs of the house he rented, Chen Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He is not planning to go out in the next few days.
Before the members of this so-called association appeared, Chen Lin still felt that it was safer to lock himself in the room.
He planned to take advantage of these few days to study the world behind the portal.
If possible, Chen Lin still wants to explore that world in a small way... After all, the more information he has about this type of information, the more proactive he will be in the future.
When Chen Lin returned to his residence, Zhou Anrui had just called back his subordinate Liu Qi in an association institution far away in Xanadu.
When Zhou Anrui explained the purpose of this trip, Liu Qi's eyes widened and he asked with disbelief: "President, are you going to do it yourself?"
"I can just go there. It's such a long trip. The train takes several hours."
Zhou Anrui smiled noncommittally, just patted his subordinate on the shoulder and told him to leave in two hours.
For President Zhou, what he really cares about is not the talented person who can open the portal.
On this trip, he still needs to go to Shanhai City to find his old friends there, so that the association he belongs to will not be abolished so early! (End of this chapter)
