Zhe Rong returned to the surface in a daze. After clearing his head a little, he wasted no time and opened an interstellar call.
Ming Fan answered immediately. However, she then told Zhe Rong, "Just a moment," and switched on three-way communication mode.
It was a long-missed three-way call, and even the participants had not changed: Ming Fan, Zhe Rong, and Mr. Qing Wu, the historian far away at the "Boundary Curtain."
This caught Zhe Rong somewhat by surprise, but an order from above was an order.
During the buffering time required for communication across the Star Gate, Zhe Rong, at Ming Fan's request, reviewed his exchange with Tai Yu.
