Chapter 1489: Route 1488 just passing by
Shang Jin also pressed her ear against the door, “Can you guys make so room for ? I can’t hear anything.”
Lang Yue didn’t want to move over, “No way, if I give up my spot to you, then my translator won’t be able to pick up their voices.”
To eavesdrop using the translator, Lang Yue and the others had intentionally brought Bluetooth earpieces, otherwise the translator’s volu would be too loud and they could get caught.
Shang Jin didn’t bring a translator with her, so naturally, she couldn’t understand what the people inside were saying. Therefore, she tried to grab Lang Yue’s translator, “Hey, you’ve been listening for so long, you must have heard a lot. Now it’s my turn. Hand over the translator and let listen for a while.”
Lang Yue was at a critical mont in his eavesdropping, he didn’t want to give the translator to Shang Jin, “No way, if you want to listen, go back and get your own translator. I’m not giving mine up.”
“Stingy!” Shang Jin stuck out her tongue, “I won’t ask to borrow it from you anymore.”
...
So Shang Jin turned her gaze to the other team mbers, but the rest of the team mbers also didn’t want to lend their translators to her.
“What exactly is happening inside?” Shang Jin asked anxiously, “Can’t any of you just tell ?”
Lang Yue said with a smile, “We told you to go back and get your translator. You didn’t want to, so there is nothing we can do.”
However, Tan Rou said, “Let translate it for you. Right now, Samiyi is speaking. She specifically criticized a few scientific personnel and ntioned terminating them from their positions.”
Shang Jin nodded, “So people indeed should be terminated. All they do is go upstairs to drink coffee every day, doing no work at all, and they bully those who work diligently. If such people can stay here, then I will stop working hard in the future too. Who doesn’t want to go upstairs for coffee and watch TV?”
Tan Rou glanced at Shang Jin and said, “We can’t adopt their work attitude.”
Shang Jin laughed, “Ah, I was just making an analogy. I didn’t actually an to adopt their way of working.”
“Can you keep it down? I can’t hear what they’re saying inside.” Lang Yue pulled Shang Jin over, “Here, I’ll share one of the Bluetooth earpieces with you. Don’t talk anymore, got it?”
Shang Jin made an “OK” gesture and then she and Lang Yue listened together to what was being said inside.
As they listened, the sound from inside seed to get softer, and the sentences translated by their devices were intermittent and made no sense.
“Is there a problem with the machine?” Lang Yue tapped the translator a couple of tis, but the sentences it translated were still incoherent, “Is your translator experiencing glitches?”
The team mbers nodded in agreent, indicating that the sentences they heard were also incomplete.
The translator’s ability to differentiate sound levels wasn’t as good as the human ear, so when the voices inside beca softer, the sentences they heard were incomplete.
The best solution was to get closer to the source of the sound. The louder the sound, the clearer the sentences heard, and the clearer the translation.
“Crack the door open a bit wider,” Shang Jin commanded, “that way, the sound we hear will be louder.”
Lang Yue protested, “No, if we open the door too much, we’ll be discovered.”
“That won’t happen,” Shang Jin reassured, “they are busy with their eting right now; they won’t have ti to bother with us.”
Lang Yue was sowhat tempted, “Okay, I’ll push the door open a bit, then slip the translator inside. That way, we’ll be able to hear more.”
Tan Rou was zoning out, pondering whether Samiyi’s decision was the right one and didn’t notice what Lang Yue and Shang Jin were doing. When she ca back to her senses, those two had already pushed the door open. Just as they were about to slip the translator through, an accident occurred.
Lang Yue and Shang Jin were tenaciously stuffing the translator inside, and the other team mbers, also wanting to hear more, did the sa. With too many people in one place, it becos crowded, and crowding leads to problems, so the whole group ended up pushing the door wide open.
“Oops!”
“This is bad!”
“Who’s pressing on ?”
Looking at them, Tan Rou felt her brain twitching in pain, “Uh… If I say this was an accident and we were just passing by, would you believe ?”
She figured probably nobody would.
