Kamal said, “It’s a pity that MissLeansdidn’t join the police.”
“What this industry lacks most is talents like you.”
However, he also knew that Maria’s identity was mysterious and she must have a great background.
It was definitely not someone he could persuade,
so he didn’t say anything more about this issue, but simply said,
“The method MissLeansjust mentioned should be very reliable.”
“I will arrange for the technicians to try it hard.”
“If it works, it will also be of great help to the criminal investigation of police around the world.”
Kamal added, “However, this requires too much computing power and is too expensive, so it is probably difficult to popularize.”
“but we have sufficient computing power,”
“so it should be no problem to monitor and warn a certain group of people.”
Maria said, “The speed at which computers have improved in recent years can be said to be like the Big Bang of the universe.”
“Maybe the computing power problem will be solved inSeveral years.”
“That makes sense.”
Kamal smiled and said,
“I won’t worry about my colleagues all over the world.”
“I believe that it won’t be long before the computing power they can allocate will increase exponentially.”
Then he said, “If there is nothing else, I will hurry up and implement Miss Leans’s idea and try to put it into use as quickly as possible!”
Chris looked at Maria and gave her a thumbs up, then said to Kamal,
“Alright, Inspector Lincoln, you go ahead,”
“and we’ll contact you if we have anything.”
After hanging up the phone, Chris couldn’t help asking Maria,
“Ms. Leans, Inspector Lincoln recommended a university major for you.”
“You wouldn’t have already studied it, right?”
Maria has lived for so many years and has obtained countless degrees.
It’s not surprising that she studied criminology when she had nothing to do.
When she heard Chris’s question, she smiled and said,
“I have studied it at school, but not in my major.”
After that, she explained in detail,
“The UCI that Inspector Lincoln mentioned is the University of California, Irvine.”
“The predecessor of the University of California was called California College.”
“I was the 1st Springsen student of California College.”
Chris nodded as if he hadn’t expected it, and said with a smile,
“I guessed that you must have some connection with this school.”
After that, he asked her, “By the way,”
“In which year did you study at that California College?”
Maria thought for a long time, and said uncertainly,
“It’s been a while, and I don’t remember it very clearly,”
“but it was before the Civil War,”
“Because I left North America after the Civil War broke out.”
After saying that, she said hesitantly,
“It should be 1854 or 1855…”
Chris couldn’t help coughing twice, and said awkwardly,
“Ahem… I knew this would have happened a long time ago,”
“but I didn’t expect it to be so far back in the past…”
Maria smiled and said, “Although you think it’s a long time ago,”
“Even at that time, I was already more than 200 years old.”
“It was also around that time that many state universities were established in the U.S.”
“I was really bored, so I applied to some schools to study.”
“Because my appearance has not changed,”
“I dare not study in college for too long.”
“I could only finish the courses as quickly as possible,”
“and then move to the next place and find the next university,”
“Just as a kind of entertainment on the way to escape.”
Speaking of this, Maria said “By the way, there is a group photo of the 1st batch of students and teachers in the historical archives of this school.”
“I am in it, but the photo is too old and the clarity is not enough.”
“I guess you won’t recognize me after seeing it.”
Chris searched the university website with curiosity.
In the introduction of the website history, he found the group photo of the earliest batch of students.
The photo from more than 100 years ago has long been blurred and yellowed,
but he still found Maria’s figure among many men dressed in Westsern clothes.
Maria in the photo looks quite thin, and the overall tone of the photo is yellow,
Which looks a bit like an Indian girl.
He was able to recognize her because she said she was there,
Otherwise, just looking at the photo, he really couldn’t tell.
After carefully looking at the group photo,
He asked her in surprise “It seems that there are onlySeveral female students in this school.”
“Yes.” Maria said “In that era, men and women were still very unequal.”
“Women’s social status was not very high,”
“and they were not valued by their families.”
“There were indeed onlySeveral who could go to university.”
As she spoke, she came over to take a look and pointed toof the middle-aged white men and said to Chris
“This was a very prestigious professor in the school at the time, andof the co-founders of the university,”
“but in fact, he was an orphan adopted and raised by my family in the UK.”
“When I brought him from the UK to North America, my public identity became his adopted daughter.”
“When I later went to Onal, it was he who wrote the recommendation for me allowing me to go to Onal and study there.”
Chris couldn’t help but sigh “Your life is so colorful.”
Maria smiled and said “Young Lordr is destined to be able to seek immortality in the future,”
“and then you can also experience that kind of colorful life.”
Chris shook his head and said “Society is progressing too fast.”
“Even if I live forever and don’t have to hide from Alora like you did in the past,”
“I will have to try my best to hide from the whole world at that time.”
“It is no longer possible to travel around the world with different identities and integrate into the life of these places as you did in the past.”
