V4C138 – Transmission Matrix (Unedited) (1/2)
Sun Sikong smiled, took the ring and asked Xu Qingwei to bring an unknown equipment. With that equipment, he swept the surface of the thing. Very soon, a pinkish layer of paint fell off the surface of the ring. After that layer fell off, an obvious joint between the ring and the gem became apparent!
“Did someone use paint on the ring?” I asked doubtfully. It seems that whoever did this wasn’t some noob at the matter! Unexpectedly finding such an excellent method of concealment!
“It isn’t paint, it’s metal! Whoever made this thing was obviously very careful. It would be impossible to find this out with the naked eye!” Sun Sikong said.
“Boss, you wouldn’t have bought this from some appraisal scammer?” Xu Qingwei teased.
“You… just shut up! You think I am so bored!” I said ill-humouredly, “Can you not be so imaginative?”
“Haha, I was just kidding!” Xu Qingwei laughed.
“Old Sun, help me separate the ring from the metal that is docked on it. Remember, don’t break the ring!” I said to Sun Sikong.
“That’s simple!” Sun Sikong nodded and handed the ring to Xu Qingwei, “Put it in the metal separator! After that, start the separator for the metal above, alright!”
Metal separator? My laboratory even had something so advanced! It seems like I will have to understand the stuff in the laboratory carefully when I have time.
After a while, the ring had been separated from the other parts. It appeared as if there had never been any additional metal on it – the metal separator worked pretty well!
Xu Qingwei looked at the ring with a strange expression and asked, “Boss, isn’t this thing the same as that iron ring I produced for you last time?”
I nodded, “Right, this thing is the key to start some sort of equipment!”
“Since you already have this, why did you ask me to toil for you in vain?” Xu Qingwei didn’t understand and asked, “Did that imitation not work?”
“No!” I shook my head and said, “In fact, I also just thought of this ring and didn’t know that it might be the real key before!”
Now that the ring was turned into this, I naturally couldn’t give it back to Meng QingQing! I know that even if I told her I broke the ring she wouldn’t blame me!
But this ring, after all, held commemorative and sentimental significance for us. Even if Meng Qing Qing didn’t say anything, there will still be some regret in my heart.
Wait, the gem was still there! Thinking about that, I said to Sun Sikong hastily, “Old Sun, that gem you just separated from the ring, can you use that to make an exact copy of this ring! With the gem exactly on top of it!”
“There’s no issue in that! But what metal should I use?” Sun Sikong asked.
“It doesn’t matter which one. How about using purple gold and platinum. It will look closer to the original!” I said.
I didn’t say anything about the process of building the ring as I believed that Sun Sikong will do the work beautifully. Making a scientist make jewelry was already overkilling!
It was the third time we arrived at the stone gate! Wu YingYing and I understood that it might just be the last time we come here! If the ring didn’t work this time then we will really give up!
The success or failure will be decided at this moment. Wu YingYing and I were even more nervous this time. After all, the ring we had the last time was fake and even when it didn’t open the stone gate, we had the hope of finding the real key.
