After leaving the Panhai Building, Xu Lin turned a corner and went to another office building not far away. This office building was built by the largest developer in China. It has 27 floors and is located on a relatively high ground. The water only flooded the third floor. Xu Lin went in in the same way and went straight to the top floor.

I climbed to the 27th floor and plopped down on the sofa in the boss's office. I took out a boxed lunch from my storage space and wolfed it down. What could I do? It was all physical labor.

Floors 24-27 housed a research and development center set up in the port city by a private seed company. The entire four floors were filled with various seeds, nutrient solutions, potting soil, and experimental equipment. Xu Lin even took the office computer and documents, leaving not a single pen behind.

Since the country has anticipated this natural disaster, it should relocate and protect national-level research and development centers. Xu Lin doesn't understand scientific research; she just thought that if she encounters experts in this field in the future or has the opportunity to submit the data to the country, researchers could avoid many detours.

Floors 20-23 house several shell companies, lavishly decorated but completely fraudulent. However, these companies' break rooms likely hold a considerable amount of stock, so Xu Lin plans to visit each company's break room.

The items in the break room are mostly the same, such as fast food and tea bags, just like cigarettes, alcohol and tea are essential in the boss's office.

However, I found a lot of gifts for clients in the storage room, but I didn't look at them carefully and just accepted them.

Xu Lin came to this office building mainly for the seed company. After harvesting the seeds, she planned to go home and sleep, as the night shift was too tiring.

Floors 19-22 house an international pet and pet supplies company. As expected of a multinational corporation, this company occupies four entire floors.

Xu Lin originally intended to skip it, since she didn't keep any pets, but when she saw the words "cat litter," it was like a revelation. She had been worried about finding a toilet, but now she had a solution! If cats could use it, then humans should be able to use it too.

Not knowing where the cat litter was, she could only search by line. In the pitch black, Xu Lin collected all the pet supplies, both visible and invisible. She suddenly changed her mind. Things she thought were useless at the time might come in handy later. What she thought was useless might actually have a purpose that she hadn't thought of yet. How much would she regret it if she didn't have it when she needed it? It sounds a bit convoluted, but that's the gist of it.

While thinking about things, I was sweeping around and finally found cat litter in the last room. What was I waiting for? I took it all.

Xu Lin swept the area with a powerful flashlight to check for any stragglers when suddenly her eyes widened as she saw a person standing behind the cat litter box.

He was about 1.9 meters tall, wearing a mask and completely covered up, holding a nail gun and pointing it at Xu Lin.

Xu Lin: The secret of the space has been discovered. I don't know if I can kill this person. I also have a few nail guns in my space, but I'm not sure if I can defeat this person.

The other person seemed surprised by Xu Lin's sudden action of taking away the cat litter.

Suddenly, the person opposite me took off their mask.

It's 801!

Xu Lin: ...I'm even more conflicted now.

The standoff lasted for three minutes before 801 on the other end spoke first.

"You probably can't beat me."

How did you know?

"If I could beat you, I would have taken care of you the moment you saw me."

What do you want?

“We can team up.”

"Not interested."

"If you encounter the same situation again, you'll be a corpse by now, and your cheat ability might transfer to someone else or disappear with you forever."

Xu Lin was careless just now; she didn't expect anyone else to be out collecting supplies like her. However, she was indeed no match for 801. 801 had mentioned that he had been a soldier before, so he shouldn't be an ordinary soldier.

"We'll talk about it when we get home."
