Professor Qin

On a hill more than 200 meters away from Jiang Baimian, Shang Jianyao, and the others, a short figure was hiding in a spot concealed by rocks and red pine trees as he watched the Old Task Force and the dark-red SUV.

He looked like a seven-year-old child, but his hair was sparse. There were unconcealed wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, mouth, and forehead—it was as if a middle-aged man's head was placed on a child's neck. It looked incongruous.

He was Professor Qin, the person in charge of Gesterbourg's matters.

Back then, the price he paid was Stunted Growth. He thought that he had gotten off easy because he was done with his adolescence. He was already 18 years old, so what puberty was there left?

But as time passed, he finally understood why his tutor had a strange expression when he heard him recount the Awakening process.
