52 Bidding Goodbye to Family (1/2)

”Not bad! This bottle of medicine can be said to be of a high-grade quality!”

”There are three chances, but he succeeded on the second attempt. He seems to be very skillful in concocting medicine!”

”To think that he has learned how to make a new genetic medicine within such a short time. It seems that he has impressive aptitude to become a geneticist!”

...

The interviewers kept on studying the berserk medicine that Feng Lin had just concocted successfully. They were all full of praises for Feng Lin.

”Congratulations, Feng Lin! You're the talent that we're looking for, with solid theoretical knowledge and strong hands-on abilities! We can sign the contract now!” The main interviewer smiled and said. With a tap, a virtual contract appeared before Feng Lin.

This was a virtual contract, but it was still valid as it registered the individual's virtual id.

And the virtual id was tied to the individual's actual identity. Therefore, it was valid.

Since Feng Lin came for the interview and went through a lot of efforts to pass this, he would naturally not reject it.

To be safe, he still looked through the contract in detail for three times. He didn't discover any loopholes in the law. It was a three months internship contract, with a basic pay of 50,000 star coins every month. If he showed outstanding performance, he could be converted to a permanent worker.

Although the contract was for three months, there would be leave given for the New Year. At that time, he would be able to return to Earth and participate in the clan's ranking competition. Moreover, the college examinations were coming up in six months. There was plenty of time, and the internship wouldn't hold up his college examinations.

After taking various situations into consideration, Feng Lin didn't hesitate any further and just signed his name on the contract.

However, he didn't notice that when he signed the contract, the interviewers had shared secretive glances between themselves.

When the contract was signed, the main interviewer smiled and asked, ”Feng Lin, when can you start work?”

”The sooner the better! I'll comply with the company's arrangements!” Feng Lin said, having the awareness of being a newcomer into the workforce.

Hearing that, the interviewers exchanged a glance and broke into satisfied smiles.

”That's good! We'll book the space shuttle ticket for you immediately. It'll take only six hours to travel from Earth straight to Mars.” The main interviewer went online to book the space shuttle ticket immediately, appearing as if he couldn't wait and wished to have Feng Lin set off immediately.

Feng Lin found this a little strange, but he didn't think much about it.

Very soon, the main interviewer completed the booking, and an electronic space shuttle ticket was sent from the official website of the space shuttle's port. The details were all stated on the ticket.

”Harley Model 989 passenger space shuttle. Take off time: 12 noon tomorrow, luxurious first-class section, seat number 11!”

The Harley-model space shuttles were well-known luxurious space shuttles in the Interstellar Era. Moreover, they had booked the most expensive first-class seat for him. The Giant Pharmaceutical Company was really kind!

Feng Lin was very satisfied with the arrangements, but for some reason, he had a faint feeling that something wasn't right.

However, the contract was already signed, and it was legally binding. It was too late to regret now.

The Giant Pharmaceutical Company could be said to be a magnate of genetic medicine in the solar system. Moreover, Feng Lin had nothing to his name. What could they seek to get from him?

Feng Lin laughed at himself in ridicule, not giving it much thought.

”I'll be accepting the space shuttle ticket! I'll set off on time tomorrow!” Feng Lin nodded toward the interviewers and prepared to leave.

Since he was going to head out to work, then he would have to apply for leave from his teacher and then bid goodbye to his family. Otherwise, there might be a big commotion for no reason if he was thought to have gone missing.

With a single thought, he disappeared on the spot.

The five interviewers smiled as they watched him leave. As Feng Lin disappeared from the spot, the smiles on their faces rapidly disappeared and became cold.

...

In the vast virtual universe, the stars were shining brightly and the Milky Way hung up high. It was an unforgettable scene.

It was a pity and regrettable that he didn't have the time to enjoy the scenery. He could only wait for another chance in the future to come to experience it again.

Feng Lin looked at the time after leaving the virtual cabin and realized that even though he had spent half the day inside, it had only been 30 minutes outside.

He recalled his earlier worry and secretly laughed at how it had all been groundless worries.

Seeing that it was getting late, he headed home.

Tomorrow was very important and he needed to make preparations.

”Feng Lin, you're back!” When he arrived home, his parents had already come back from the factory. They immediately reprimanded Feng Lin after seeing him.

”Why didn't you tell us anything about you taking on a part-time job for seven days?”

”You made us worry for nothing! We thought that something had happened to you!”

...

The reprimands were filled with intense concern.

Feng Lin felt very warm inside.
