I have no pheromones, you smelled wrong

"He made an application for questioning to the committee?" Alfred received the message over dinner.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Neumann replied with his head bowed.

Alfred raised his eyebrows and smiled, and said to himself: "I thought he would choose a press conference and talk directly to the media... It seems that he really doesn't like the spotlight."

"...Your Majesty, do I need to do anything? The committee can directly reject the application."

"No, no, let them accept the application."

"But the experts that were brought in were concerned..."

The emperor's request was too unreasonable, and now they were worried that if they confronted Lin Xuzheng, they might be the ones who should be accused of academic misconduct.

"Tell them to relax and plan ahead," Alfred said. "The hearing is a good opportunity."

"Yes, I'll go down and make arrangements."

After Neumann resigned, Alfred walked quietly to the window, and the rain outside the window was pattering.

At this time, Capital Star is still in summer with a suitable climate, and the wind blows the rain curtain, bringing in bursts of damp smell.

Alfred knew that Lin Xu's academic attitude was correct, and it was impossible to find any mistakes in the paleoearth papers he published.

But people's words are formidable, especially the pressure of a group of industry authorities.

However, Alfred did not expect to bring down Lin Xu with academic misconduct, an industry rule that was not even written into the laws of the empire. At most, it made him feel irritable, and he couldn't continue to hide in his cabin with peace of mind. Falling in love and raising children.

Further planning is required.

The joint whistleblower team almost went through hundreds of articles and monographs published by Lin Xu in the past few years. The workload is so heavy that the preparations may have started before the seminar, but on the day of the seminar, they were able to support Lin Xu amicably. Lin Xu's speech applauded.

Ridiculous and ridiculous.

If Lin Xu wants to refute their accusation, he must prepare question statements one by one, one by one, the amount of text and data is terribly large, or does he need to ask curator Zhao to help him pass over the original experimental data recorded by the laboratory? , as evidence.

Within a week from the questioning to the start of the hearing, Lin Xu worked almost day and night in the study, occasionally stopping to exchange food for the rabbits, cats and blue squirrels.

Yuan Xiao has learned to eat sea crystals regularly and quantitatively to fill her stomach.

In the first few days, Lin Xu would put him back in the crib when Yuan Xiao fell asleep, but when Yuan Xiao woke up in the middle of the night, she found that Papa was not beside her to sleep with her. He slammed into the door and fell to the ground.

Lin Xu had no choice but to move Yuan Xiao's crib to the study. When he was working, Yuan Xiao learned to write by himself.

Because Lin Xu didn't have time to play with Yuanxiao as before, even though he stayed with Papa all the time, Yuanxiao still felt aggrieved and lonely, and Papa's serious expression at work made him a little scared.

He didn't want to sleep in the crib anymore, so he flew onto Lin Xu's shoulder, stepped on it a few times, Lin Xu grabbed his tail that was sweeping everywhere, Yuan Xiao obediently found a comfortable place on Lin Xu's shoulder and lay down.

He watched Lin Xu's fingers typing on the virtual keyboard, and his glassy blue eyes moved back and forth following the movements of his fingers. After a while, the upper and lower eyelids began to fight, and his head fell asleep bit by bit.

At the beginning, the tip of the tail was still touching Lin Xu's chest, but when she was fully asleep, Yuan Xiao looked like a well-behaved mock dragon.

The thick clouds outside the window lowered, the strong wind rolled from the grassland, and the cold moisture poured into the room along the window facing the desk.

Lead gray clouds imprinted in Lin Xuwu's gray eyes. He temporarily stopped what he was doing, got up and closed most of the windows, leaving only a gap for ventilation.

The howling wind was blocked out, and the fluttering curtains also calmed down.

But the wilderness is still rainy and dark clouds are overwhelming.

On the day of the hearing, Lin Xu gave Yuan Xiao to Arnold's care. Due to the time difference between Capital Star and Endymion Star, Yuan Xiao was still sleeping soundly when he left. Suddenly, someone hugged Lin Xu from his shoulders. He looked around dimly.

"Ouch..."

Lin Xu patted his head and back, because he didn't want to wake up Yuan Xiao completely, so he didn't say much. After seeing Xiaolong being rubbed and closed his eyes again, Lin Xu put him in the cat bag and handed it to Arnold, and said softly: "You Sit in my house for a while, and take him to your residence when he wakes up, there is food in the refrigerator, you can have some breakfast."

Arnold nodded, but Lin Xu's family didn't have a kitchen robot, and Arnold himself couldn't cook, so he relied on nutritional supplements for breakfast and lunch.

He watched Lin Xu's aircraft leave, and suddenly remembered that the first time he accompanied Marshal Chu to Lin Xu's house to find someone a year ago, it was also drizzling and foggy, and there was no aircraft course guidance on the Kakalamo Plain. Arnold, who was driving the aircraft, You can only lower the altitude of the aircraft and move along the road on the ground.

At that time, Lin Xu was still driving an antique car that only had the function of land travel and could not fly, but now he has actively and proficiently piloted the aircraft for travel.

Lin Xu took the space elevator to the capital star, and when he arrived at the office building of the academic committee, it was just 10:[-] and [-] minutes.

The hearing officially began at [-]:[-] pm Capital Star time.

Looking at the past from a distance in the sky, the front of the building was surrounded by reporters who came to interview and the floating news ball on the shooting site.

Dr. Lin Xu has no online social accounts, no press conferences, and no contact with any media for interviews. So far, he has never spoken to the public, and no one knows his attitude and thoughts.

All the media wanted to grab his first words.

At 35:[-], Lin Xu parked the aircraft.

At 45:[-], the reporters outside the gate of the building complained to their colleagues: "Why hasn't he appeared yet? Could it be that he released the news, but he is too timid to come?"

"There is no time limit for being late for the hearing, so just wait... I even doubt that Lin Xu will show up in person. He is a billionaire. Even if he quits academia and stops working, he might live a better life than the emperor."

"Speaking of money... Will Lin Xu buy the whistleblower directly with money?"

"Who knows?"

Just as the reporter downstairs complained impatiently, Lin Xu entered the building through the underground entrance.

At [-]:[-], he arrived at the conference hall of the giant hearing on the thirteenth floor.

There is a divided media area in the conference hall, and the guards maintain order. Although Lin Xu walked into the conference hall, there were continuous shots and inquiries, but the order was still good.

The guard dutifully stopped the reporter who wanted to rush forward for an interview. Lin Xu glanced at it and walked over without saying a word.

The reporting and questioning parties sat face to face, with the seats for the committee staff on the side. Except for the chairman, all the other staff members were present. Five representatives of the joint report were selected as the spokespersons, and the rest sat in the audience on the other side. seat.

At 55:[-], Lin Xu had finished processing his documents and evidence, while representatives of the reporting party were still negotiating intensely.

At 58:[-], the Chairman arrived and advised all the people in the conference hall to keep quiet.

At fourteen o'clock, the chairman announced the hearing to begin.

At [-]:[-], the infield media issued the first official report. The reporters outside the building saw that they realized that they had been tricked by Lin Xu. He didn't enter through the main entrance at all!

There was a small platform in the middle of the double-sided seats for the two parties to make their first round of statements. The representative of the reporting team stood up first. When Lin Xu heard it, it was nothing more than a cliché written in the report. Lin Xu's ears were full of mistakes.

After the speaker returned to his seat after speaking, he couldn't help but took out his handkerchief to wipe his sweat, but then he saw Lin Xu standing on the stage calmly, adjusted the microphone, and the sweat on the speaker's forehead grew bigger.

The person who contacted them gave him a large sum of money, an amount that he could not earn even if he did 200 years of research. At that time, he thought that even if the prosecution failed, he would not have much loss. At most, he would lose his job and be scolded.

Then you can take the money and fly away.

And the man said that he would take care of the hearing, maybe he wouldn't have to go far away, and he could still be his research team leader.

But Lin Xu's fierce temperament pierced through all the comfort at this moment, making him terrified.

"Chairman, hello fellow committee members." After Lin Xu finished the routine greetings in a calm tone, he made a simple opening remark, directly cutting into the analysis of the contents of the report attachment.

He spoke at a moderate speed, without preparing any speeches but fluently, without any hesitation caused by stuttering, and occasionally paused at difficult points, leaving time for the committee to think, or coldly glanced at the whistleblower representative during this pause.

The speaking representative couldn't bear Lin Xu's gaze, turned on his brain with shaking palms, and quietly sent a message.

[I think we will fail. 】

The other side replied: [You don't need to take care of the rest. 】

Lin Xu said one-third of the time, and just used the original experimental data to refute the data falsification proposed by the informant, when the outside of the conference hall suddenly became noisy, almost overwhelming Lin Xu's voice amplified by the loudspeaker.

Lin Xu frowned, and reached out to turn up the volume of the microphone again.

"As for the cultural relic numbered GHS435, the prosecutor believes that..."

"Bang——" After a loud noise, the door of the meeting hall was knocked open, and a group of people in police uniforms broke in. Everyone in the hall was silent for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, a group of media began scrambling to shoot, asking why they broke in.

The police pushed aside the media, walked quickly and with a clear goal towards... Lin Xu in the center of the hall.

The prosecutor was stunned by this sudden change, and the committee on the stage was also confused, and forgot to make a sound to stop the other party from disturbing the order of the venue.

The young man Alpha who was walking in the front stopped in front of Lin Xu and showed his ID to Lin Xu.

"Lin Xu, I'm Chief Inspector Richard Merck of Capital Star Police Department."

Lin Xu stood on the podium, much taller than Merck, who had to look up.

"You..." Before Lin Xu's polite greeting was finished, Merck opened another file with his law enforcement optical brain.

"You were arrested on suspicion of murdering Marlene Purser and committing a huge amount of fraud. This is a signed arrest warrant. Please come with us."

Lin Xu looked into Merce's eyes, and put his words aside in his mind again to make sure he heard correctly.

Merck did not dodge or evade, and the crime was clearly written on the arrest warrant displayed by the optical brain, with the prosecutor's electronic signature and seal in the lower right corner.

The author has something to say:
