In Shihua's perception, Zhang Zian is a super stingy and super rational person. Even every call bill charged for her is clearly calculated. How could he do something meaninglessly wasted money? His parents have passed away, but they still keep their numbers unobstructed. This does not conform to his personality!

Zhang Zian didn't know why she asked this, so he nodded, "If you don't charge for phone bills, you will be shut down. China Mobile is not a charity person."

"So, you're not only charging your phone bills, but also charging their phones every day?" Shihua asked, "Didn't you say that this is commercial electricity, and you feel very distressed every time you charge for electricity?"

Zhang Zian was speechless, "Do you think of me as a stingy person?"

Shihua couldn't tell what it felt like, as if he had met Zhang Zi'an again. He not only kept the number of his deceased parents in his mobile phone contact, but also recharged their numbers and charged their mobile phones, just like they were in their lifetime, just like... they hadn't passed away yet.

She always thought she was lonely, but in fact he was lonely.

"Why are you looking at me like this?" Zhang Zi'an looked down at his pants and confirmed if his crotch was also wet.

"It's nothing." Shihua shook his hair, scratched his fingers, and chose Wei Kang from the contact person, then dialed the phone. When he heard the other party answering, he handed the phone back to Zhang Zi'an and stared at him tightly.

"Hey? Professor Wei, it's me, Zhang Zi'an." Zhang Zi'an was a little embarrassed by Shihua's stare, and walked out of the bathroom while calling.

"Oh, Xiao Zhang, what's the matter? Is it about the expedition team?"

Wei Kang's tone suddenly became nervous. He was worried that Zhang Zi'an suddenly proposed to withdraw from the expedition team and no longer participate in the trip to Egypt, which would be a great loss for the expedition team.

"No, it has nothing to do with that. Actually... I want to borrow a scientific instrument from you. I wonder if it is convenient for you?" Zhang Zi'an said.

"What instrument? Let me tell you, if it is an ordinary instrument that I can make the decision, it will be fine. If it is an instrument that is too expensive, I have no right to lend it out, so I can only ask the leaders of the institute..." Wei Kang had reservations and lengthened his voice.

Zhang Zi'an said: "It should not be a particularly expensive instrument, it is an underwater pickup. I wonder if you have it there?"

"Underwater pickup?" Wei Kang paused, and then asked in surprise: "This instrument can be borrowed, but I don't mind if I ask, why do you want to use this thing? The borrowed instrument needs to be filled out, and I have to know what your purpose is."

What he implies is that if you still need an underwater pickup to open a pet shop?

Zhang Zi'an explained: "Professor Wei, I recently opened a branch, which is an aquarium. At the same time, I also became interested in whales, especially the sound of whales. It feels very melodious and mysterious, and it sounds like a magical sound... Are there many whales coming from the sea outside our city now? I want to record some of their sounds and play them in my aquarium, so that they can also create a mysterious atmosphere at the bottom of the sea."

"I can't tell, Xiao Zhang, your aesthetic style is quite high! Few young people of your age can calm down and listen to the whale song." Wei Kang's tone was both surprised and admired, not like sarcasm, "But the whale's singing can be downloaded from the Internet to ready-made ones, why do you need to record it yourself?"

Zhang Zi'an smiled and said, "Professor Wei, you shouldn't ask this... You have worked so hard to go out in the field and may not be able to find new species as you wish. Why do you have to go again and again? Although you can download ready-made whale songs on the Internet, I still want to record them myself, and maybe I can find something different new."

Wei Kang was silent for a moment. Zhang Zi'an thought that what he said made him angry, but he immediately slapped the table and exclaimed: "Okay! This is the spirit that scientific exploration should have! It seems that you are born to be suitable for this industry! I really don't consider taking the exam for my graduate school?"

"Professor Wei, you are telling a joke again!" Zhang Zi said with peace of mind. He spoke completely to his preferences. In order to successfully borrow the underwater pickup, he deliberately wanted Wei Kang to please him. He did not have the spirit of scientific exploration...

Wei Kang sighed, "Okay, I'll go and tell my colleagues who are studying marine life to see if they have free underwater pickups... By the way, how long do you have to borrow?"

"Maybe a few days... I'll try to get faster." Zhang Zian was not sure whether he would meet a giant whale again when he went to the beach next time, so he could only relax his time.

"By the way, Professor Wei, tell your colleague, I won't borrow it for nothing, your colleague will get the corresponding reward." He added.

"No, no need to pay. This time I borrowed it privately, so I don't need to pay."

Wei Kang thought he had to pay the rent and said he would not have to pay it, but Zhang Zian actually wanted to repay in a special form to give him a few ice sea anemones he raised and bred to the Department of Biology of Binhai University in his private name and provide them with research.

Ice sea anemone is a new species that has just been discovered under the Antarctic ice cap in recent years. So far, people do not understand their habits and how they root their weak bodies in solid ice. If the teachers and students of Binhai University can lead the world to unlock the mystery of ice sea anemone, and even discover that some ingredient in the body of ice sea anemone that can be applied to medicine, it may cause a lot of sensation. At that time, he was also honored, and it would be very convenient to borrow things in the future.

Zhang Zian did not have the corresponding knowledge and research equipment, nor was he interested. Bing Hai Anemone was just a pet to watch. It would be better to share some out to benefit science, which can be regarded as a way to make up for his repeated favors.

"It's not that I'm paying, it's so vulgar. I want to give you some good things." He pretended to be mysterious and cheered up Wei Kang's appetite.

Wei Kang was stunned when he heard this, thinking that Zhang Zi'an had finally figured it out and was willing to take out the original Egyptian cat to do research for him, but after thinking about it carefully, it didn't seem to look like it.

Although he repeatedly asked what it was, Zhang Zian never explained in detail and planned to surprise him when he returned the underwater pickup.

Wei Kang first hung up the phone, went to borrow instruments from his colleagues, and then called Zhang Zi'an, saying that everything was going well and there was a free one on his colleagues' side.

The two agreed on the time and place to meet.

When it was time, Zhang Zi'an drove to Binhai University, filled out the corresponding rental form with the help of Wei Kang, and finally got the precious underwater pickup.

With this thing, you can record and analyze the sound of the giant whale, and then uncover its mysterious veil.
