“It is said that he has a pair of piercing eyes which can see through a person. Hence, he can tell whoever is sent by the government. Two female frontier-patrolling police officers sent by the Chinese government were almost caught by him.”
It was necessary for Ye Jian to know this kind of fact which should not be hidden from her. She must realize in advance what kind of a dangerous person she was about to face.
It had never occurred to Ye Jian that she would take such a difficult task in her first cooperation with the army.

“That’s correct. That’s why we need you.” said Xia Jinyuan, smiling. He knew this brave girl would not flinch. “Don’t be afraid. You are a student and a candidate in this competition. It’s impossible for him to think of every possibility no matter how alert he is.”
“Our plane will arrive in Sydney around eight tomorrow morning, and you will arrive at the hotel around 11:30 local time… The man in the picture is among the group of Vietnamese students, while the Chinese will come to his aid.”
And what Ye Jian should do was to report to Xia Jinyuan in time regarding which people the Vietnamese man had contact with.
It was a drug gang using students to traffic their drugs. From purchase to transportation to bribery, the gang had established a rigorous and successful drug trafficking chain in the cities of Vietnam and the Laos-Vietnam-China borders.
The Chinese government had caught two informants of the drug trafficking chain. According to the tips, the Chinese man, who was aiding the Vietnamese man, was one of the heads of the gang cooperating with the international drug dealing cartel.
Xia Jinyuan’s targets were the Chinese man and the Vietnamese man.
Once again, someone was knocking the bathroom door. Yawning, the person said, “Excuse me.”
Ye Jian froze a bit. Staring at Xia Jinyuan, she pointed at him and then at herself, hoping he could tell her what to do. What if someone found that they, a male and a female, were in the bathroom together?!
“The toilet didn’t work? We are very sorry, sir, we will fix that right away.” the flight attendant apologized. Without any facial expression on her face, Ye Jian came out from the bathroom and sat back in her seat.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBecause the toilet was broken, a gentleman offered to help the girl. And since he couldn’t fix it, he asked the flight attendant for help… A perfect explanation!
After this episode, Ye Jian didn’t go to the bathroom again. The plane flew for nearly 12 hours and landed in Sydney at 8:40 the next day.
The Sydney time was two hours ahead of Beijing time. Right now, it was 10:40 in Sydney.
About an hour later, led by the teachers from Australia, the 12 students arrived at the hotel. At the bright and open gate of the hotel, stood a slogan in English. ‘It is important to participate, not to win.’ read the slogan.
It was the spirit of the science competition.
Standing in front of the slogan with a stern look on his face, Wang Mo said to Ye Jian, “The reality is different from the spirit.” The 12 candidates from China were selected nationwide, which was proof that the country had attached great importance to the competition.
“Don’t give yourself too much pressure. Just try your best.” said Ye Jian. Grabbing her luggage, she smiled at Wang Mo from the ninth grade. “Let’s not think of these things that will give us stomachaches at lunch time.”
