Professor Cao said, "Mr. Ye, stop trying to hold me back. The trip to Yunnan was proposed in the application I submitted to the leaders. Since the mission was initiated by me, we veterans ought to lead by example. The situation in the abyss is still unclear; I’ll go down first, then the youngsters can follow."
