Chapter 830 - 771: Group of Botanists
The botanists had set up a group chat and the conversation was fairly lively.
In the group, everyone discussed work, chatted, shared pictures, forwarded jokes and news, watched drama unfold, posted links, and ranted about incompetent leaders and policies, sharing new perspectives on world and historical issues...
It was clear that, since this was a group of biologists, just like any other creatures, everyone tried their best not to talk about work.
Using changes in the natural environment to locate bodies was not easy. Despite Jiang Yuan unearthing several graves with ease, it had taken him several days, and he had to search in a targeted manner, grounded in Level 4 Legal Botany expertise.
That day, the location where the special case went missing was determined by Qi Changye. Although it was only a direction with a vast area, there was still a defined range. Jiang Yuan dug over the most identifiable locations within that range and left the leftovers for a bunch of scholars who didn’t even reach Level 1 in Legal Botany to research. Needless to say, their progress wasn’t as smooth.
It was like a handsome expert spending days sweet-talking each girl in a dormitory, only to leave behind those girls who were unresponsive for a classmate who was a virgin, single since birth, average-looking, of ordinary family background, average height, not eloquent, not into dressing up, with no sense of fashion nor care for food and clothes, poor sports abilities, lacking confidence, and too proud to lower his face.
This group of over twenty botanists—their enthusiasm was drained in just a few days.
Jiang Yuan returned to his office, scanned over the group chat, and had a clear understanding of the situation.
Soon, Jiang Yuan updated the group announcement:
Announcement: [Everyone, in the next two days, we will excavate the locations you’ve marked. If you have more places to mark, please send them to me privately. The trial excavation is expected to last two to three days.]
