795. Repaying Kindness
Ryan's words left the young woman momentarily speechless.She stood still, trying to piece together what had happened before she lost consciousness. Her memories did indeed end at the entrance to Hunter Village.She glanced out the window. The midday sun was so fierce that the ground outside seemed to shimmer in the blinding light.Only then did she begin to believe Ryan's explanation."Really...?"She asked tentatively."Otherwise, what do you think happened?"Ryan pointed toward the basin of water near her feet. She was standing so close that another step would have sent it tumbling over."Sorry!"The evidence was undeniable. She had suffered heatstroke and collapsed at the village entrance, only to attack the very people who had rescued her.The more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she became. Her face flushed, and she hardly knew where to look."Forget it. We shouldn't have crowded around you like that in the first place."Ryan wasn't particularly bothered. As long as n
792. The Visitor
Several days had passed since Hunter Village was named a model village, and as time went by, the villagers' enthusiasm for the honor gradually faded.During the first few days, villagers would gather at the entrance of Ryan's research institute to examine the plaque hanging on the gatepost. They would praise Ryan's achievements, occasionally mention Mr. Wallace, and leave with satisfied smiles.For some reason, ever since Hunter Village had received the model village title, Mr. Wallace had become noticeably more humble and composed. Whenever villagers praised him, he would simply chuckle without launching into the long-winded speeches he used to give.Ryan vaguely sensed that something had begun to change behind the scenes after the village received the honor.As the weather grew hotter, the villagers rarely ventured onto the roads during the day. They no longer needed to worry much about their farmland, either. As long as Ryan's irrigation system remained operational, the crops would
793. Model Village
I've polished this chapter for natural English, clearer dialogue, and smoother pacing while preserving the plot and system mechanics. I've applied your established name replacements throughout, including Li Chen → Ryan, Li Qian/Xiaoqian → Lindsey, Zhang Xinyi → Cindy, Wang Xu/Secretary Wang → Mr. Wallace, Secretary Zhao → Mr. Zachary, and Lijia Village → Hunter Village. Chapter 5: Hunter Village's First Honor To Ryan's surprise, only one of the newly unlocked technologies was available for research. Central Control Terminal. "What exactly is this?" Ryan asked, looking at the sole available option. The system promptly explained. The Central Control Terminal was the primary interface responsible for managing all technologies. Once a technology had been successfully developed, the terminal would allow Ryan to make various adjustments to its functions and settings. However, developing the terminal required a new research institute. Furthermore, computer-related technologies had to
792. A Five Star Research
Chapter 4: A Five-Star Researcher"Brother Ryan, can I take a look?"A girl's voice suddenly came from behind Ryan.He turned around and discovered Lindsey leaning against the doorframe, peering curiously into the laboratory. He had no idea when she had arrived."Lindsey, this isn't a game. This stuff is genuinely difficult to understand."Although Ryan warned her, he still allowed her into the laboratory. Since everyone else was at a loss, letting her take a look couldn't hurt.With his permission, Lindsey hurried over to Cindy's computer and squeezed in front of the screen.The code was indeed complicated, but to Lindsey, it didn't seem quite as intimidating as everyone made it out to be. It was more like a foreign language she hadn't fully learned yet."Lindsey, you've been staring at the screen for a while without saying anything. Have you noticed something?" Ryan asked.Lindsey finally turned toward him."Brother Ryan, I'd like to give it a try."She stretched out her hands and p
791. A Place to Stay
Chapter 3: A Place to StayLindsey settled into Ryan's research institute that very evening.Ryan casually chose an empty laboratory for her to stay in. The laboratory itself wasn't important; what mattered was the small room attached to it. It had a bed and everything she needed to spend the night comfortably.Ryan's new research institute had no shortage of rooms. What it lacked was researchers. Giving Lindsey a place to stay was hardly a problem.After making sure she was settled, Ryan returned to his own laboratory and continued working on his research. He worked late into the night, only dragging himself to bed when exhaustion finally overcame him.The next morning, a hesitant knock at the laboratory door woke him.The knocking came in fits and starts, as though whoever stood outside wasn't sure whether to disturb him.Ryan jumped out of bed, hurriedly ran his fingers through his disheveled hair, and went to open the door.Two unexpected visitors stood outside: Lindsey's parents.
790. Rebellious Young Girl
Chapter 2: A Runaway GirlSummer evenings were much cooler than the scorching days. As the sun slowly sank below the horizon, a gentle breeze swept through Hunter Village, carrying away the day's heat.Ryan and Jonas were taking a leisurely walk around the village when they heard a commotion coming from a nearby house.“Look at your grades! How can you possibly explain this?” a middle-aged man shouted angrily. “All you do is sit in front of that computer. Why can't you learn something useful instead?”“That's enough!” a woman added. “Look at Ryan. He's so young, yet he's already accomplished so much. And what about Brady? He didn't even finish high school, but he taught himself everything he needed to become a researcher. Why can't you learn from him?”“I can't do it!” a girl's voice screamed from inside the house. “I've tried, but I just can't learn those things! Why won't you leave me alone?”“Look at the way you're talking to us!” the man roared.A loud crash followed, as though so
