"In my opinion, now is not the time to take action against Ling Mo. If something happens to her, how will we silence the gossips among the students? And if the Qin and Zhan families hear any rumors, how will we deal with their retaliation?"

However, just because we can't touch her doesn't mean we can't use her. If my lord is willing to trust me, I do have ways to squeeze every last drop of value out of her.”

Qin Wanli narrowed his eyes, clearly not expecting the woman brought by Ouyang Bin to have such insight. He pondered for a while before finally replying:

Tell me about it.

"I was fortunate enough to read the Ancient Medical Book, and I have been studying the hypnosis techniques in it recently. At this stage, my hypnosis skills have reached a high level. As long as I find a suitable opportunity, I can use hypnosis to further control Ling Mo."

Furthermore, my current appearance is extremely similar to Ling Mo's birth mother. Even if the hypnosis goes wrong, as long as I'm careful, I still have a way to use the resemblance to Ling Mo's birth mother to make her obedient.

"Do as you say. If you mess it up, you'll pay with your head."

Qin Wanli was inherently suspicious and rarely employed new people.

He only gave her a chance to show her skills out of respect for Ouyang Bin.

No sooner had he finished speaking than he instructed his two bodyguards, AK01 and AK02, to escort her out.

They ostensibly wanted her to quickly plan the hypnosis of Ling Mo, but in reality, they just didn't want her to hear anything about the T-virus.

Outside the mechanical armor door, Ling Mo heard the commotion inside and quickly stepped back several paces.

I originally planned to hide on the seventh floor, but as soon as I reached the stairwell, I found several guards walking up the stairs from the seventh floor.

In desperation, she had no choice but to go up to the ninth floor in one go.

Since there were guards at the entrance to the ninth-floor corridor, she had no choice but to sneak up to the tenth floor without making a sound.

The layout of the tenth floor is slightly different from the other floors.

On the left is still the bright biochemical laboratory with silver as the main color.

On the right side of the corridor are bedrooms equipped with fingerprint locks.

Wearing gloves with AK45 fingerprints printed on them, Ling Mo tried each fingerprint lock on the bedroom door, but all attempts failed.

Left with no other choice, she had to change direction and stealthily head towards the eleventh floor.

Upon reaching the end of the corridor, she was surprised to find that the bedroom in the far corner was unlocked.

The door was half open, and there was no one inside.

Seeing this, Ling Mo did not hesitate any longer and slipped into the bedroom, which was filled with the faint scent of sandalwood.

A dim wall lamp was on in the bedroom, casting a pale yellow glow over most of the furnishings, creating a hazy and mysterious atmosphere.

She lifted the purple beaded curtain at the entrance and glanced around briefly, realizing she had stumbled into the woman's room by mistake.

Ling Mo frowned, fearing there might be an ambush somewhere she couldn't see, so he simply hid in the wardrobe filled with all kinds of cheongsams and mink coats.

The space inside the wardrobe was quite cramped; she had to turn sideways to completely conceal her body within it.

Only after finding a good hiding place did her tense nerves relax slightly.

Having finally found some free time, she sorted through and integrated the fragmented information she had overheard outside the conference room on the eighth floor several times, and the truth seemed to have become quite clear.

First, from Qin Wanli's statement that "the head of state has become suspicious of Qin Baye," we can know that Qin Baye's kidnapping and detention for many years was actually at the head of state's behest.

The reason why the leader became suspicious of Qin Ba Ye, who had made great contributions, was not only because he was worried that the Qin family's achievements would overshadow his own, but also because of the instigation of a third party.

And that third person is most likely someone like Qin Wanli.

As for Qin Wanli's purpose, it should be to seize control of the Qin Group, take the opportunity to join forces with Ouyang Bin to annex Zhan Hanjue's business empire, and finally use the T-virus to create a biological war, thereby realizing his ambition to dominate the world.

After clarifying her thoughts, Ling Mo began to question Qin Wanli's identity.

Logically speaking, the person who would have the opportunity to spread rumors about Qin Baye in front of the head of state should be someone of similar age to Qin Baye. Even if he was slightly younger than Qin Baye, he would not be Qin Wanli, who was half the age of Qin Baye.

Furthermore, Qin Wanli was Qin Baye's only son. Even if Qin Baye had not handed over the family business to him, he would not have gone so far as to poison his two biological sons.

From these two points, it can be inferred that the ruthless and ambitious man in front of us is definitely not Qin Wanli himself.

He was most likely a founding father whose status was comparable to that of Qin Baye.

As for why he dared not use his original appearance, it is possible that he was worried that his fate would be like that of Qin Ba Ye, and that he would be feared by the leader.

In this situation, faking his death and then staging a dramatic escape to become the head of the Qin family, the most powerful conglomerate in Beijing's elite circles, would undoubtedly be the best option...

After some logical reasoning, Ling Mo had roughly figured out the purpose and next move of this force.

She also came up with a solution in a short time.

For now, she shouldn't be in any danger. If those people intend to use hypnosis to control her, she can pretend to have been successfully hypnotized, biding her time until she successfully obtains her diploma.

Once she could leave the Super God Arena openly, she would hand over the eavesdropping recordings she had made on her phone to the leader. In this way, the leader would be able to see the true colors of this group.

In addition, she had another daunting task: to locate the T-virus's storage location as soon as possible and destroy it promptly.

Otherwise, if Qin Wanli suffers repeated defeats, he might become desperate and consider taking everyone down with him.

If it really comes to that, the entire city of Linjiang will be completely destroyed...

Thinking of this possibility, Ling Mo's expression became extremely solemn.

Because the space inside the wardrobe was too cramped, she was about to pull aside the clothes blocking her way to breathe in the fresh air when she heard a rustling sound outside.
