730 Hiring M.I.Ts Dean (2/2)

”I bet it'll be the most popular elective,” Leif said in a joking tone.

...

As Coro University gradually got on track, Jiang Chen shifted his focus to Future Group.

The completion of the city of Penglai, the Global Merchandise Exposition, VRcity, and the forthcoming mobile phone launched by Future Technology... When Jiang Chen personally got involved in these tasks, he truly realized how humongous his own company was. He also realized how tired Xia Shiyu, who picked up the weight of the entire group, must be.

According to Jean's statistics, she always maintained an average of two meetings per day and had a 30 document approval rate. Fortunately, Jean could help now. Before, Xia Shiyu had to manually review these documents.

In the evening, Jiang Chen sat in the office of the president, held the coffee his assistant made, looked at the night view of the city from the windows, and thought about the future.

Tanaka had been sealed in the basement of New Moon Island. The Kurofune only existed in name. With Mitsui's list, the Ghost agents arrested half the members of the Kurofune's Asia Division, leaving only scattered sporadic parties to flee.

In the capture and assassination of these people, the Ghost Agents sent by Jiang Chen discovered some strange phenomena.

Many of Kurofune's members showed incredible ability in dealing with the Ghost Agents... almost like they had superpowers?

According to the intelligence gathered by the agents, Ayesha summarized their capabilities. Among them, there were relatively normal skills such as strengthening of the five senses, enhancement of resilience, improvements in athletic ability, and so on. Unscientific ones were manipulative magnetization, discharge, mental oscillation, etc...

Jiang Chen's intuition told him that these abilities were likely related to the hidden genetic code. And these people... how could they unlock the power of genetic code without a genetic vaccine?

Was the Kurofune transforming them or was it because they possessed these special abilities that they could become part of the Kurofune?

How could Tanaka gather these people together?

With a long sigh, Jiang Chen drank the remaining coffee in the cup. Originally, he was thinking about future development. However, he didn't know why his mind drifted elsewhere.

”Forget it; these little pawns will be handled by the Ghost Agents. As for their superpowers... capture some and study them slowly.”

As he put his coffee cup on the table, Jiang Chen was about to call his assistant to make another cup, but he heard knocking on his door.

”Please come in.”

Xia Shiyu pushed the door open and entered with documents.

Looking at her working so late, Jiang Chen's face looked apologetic.

”Thank you for working so hard.”

”Not at all, this is my job.” She combed her hair behind her ears and said lightly: ”...This is a plan for a merchandise exhibition. Here is a project overview for VRcity. Although I've already reviewed it, it's better for you to read it before signing.”

After receiving the documents, Jiang Chen started to review them under her guidance.

A touch of her fragrance lingered over the tip of his nose. Perhaps he was too close, but he could even feel her breath and her nervous heartbeat.
