Chapter 133 Moving Forward Option C

Mellon was treated the same way by Bai, so he got back at Bai and became obedient. He sat on the sofa with his head down, drinking juice, but he looked at Bai pitifully.

Bai ignored Mellon, the funny guy, and said what he was thinking:

"Nan Qi and I have analyzed the Harberson Psychological Research Institute. It's not a secret laboratory set up outside the Imperial Research Institute. Other insects who covet the position of the Insect King knew of the Insect King's plan and the experiment, so they modeled it after the Imperial Research Institute."

"This analysis is based on facts. According to Sli and Slang, the experimental subjects codenamed 061 and 062, a major incident occurred at the Imperial Research Institute ten years ago."

Bai recalled, "A sudden explosion occurred in the Imperial Research Institute's First Laboratory, directly resulting in the deaths of the First Laboratory's Director, Lucius Cherri, and six Level 1 researchers. Several other researchers were injured, and the explosion affected several other laboratories."

"A total of eight test subjects escaped from three laboratories. Five have been recovered, but three remain missing, and it's unknown whether they're dead or alive. These three were all from the First Laboratory. Nan Qi and I suspect this explosion wasn't an accident, but rather related to the Harberson Institute of Psychiatry."

"Speaking of which, I remember that Harberson was founded about six months after the explosion!" Mellon put down his juice, frowning. "Did the three unrecovered test subjects get taken away by the Harberson Psychological Research Institute?"

Bai nodded: "Very likely."

"What does that have to do with option C you mentioned?" Mellon was puzzled.

white:"……"

Pu Bo tried to hold back, but couldn't help himself. He brought his palm down on the back of Meilong's head again, making Meilong groan. He then spoke, "Have you eaten too much and your brain is not working, or are you just too stupid to understand? You've already said it so clearly."

"Just because we don't know the specific inside story doesn't mean the Insect King doesn't know. He must hate the insects from the Harberson Psychological Research Institute the most. If he knew, wouldn't we be seeing a dog-eat-dog situation?"

"Oh, I know. I just want to ask, if the Insect King knows more than us, why hasn't he found out anything wrong with Harberson after all these years? Isn't that a bit unreasonable?" Melon muttered.

"That makes sense," Nan Qi continued. "For Harberson to dare to rob the Imperial Research Institute, they must have been thoroughly prepared. After their successful attack, they would have gone silent for a while to avoid capture. The fact that Harberson was established six months later proves this."

"Because this incident involves the confidential information of the Imperial Research Institute and cannot be made public, Hoover Walker was hesitant to publicize the pursuit, giving Harberson time to hide and develop. And—"

Nan Qi paused and looked at Bai with gentle and encouraging eyes.

Bai felt warm inside, and continued with Nan Qi's words, "Hoover Walker probably felt that even if the other party planned this operation and took the experimental subjects away, without the formula for the Promote02 potion, the experimental subjects would die, and the threat would not be great."

"Oh, if that's what you say, then it makes sense." Mellon nodded. "Then the question is, how can we let the Insect King know what Harberson did and the location of the laboratory?"

"Leave this to me and Nan Qi."

Hearing Meilong's question, Bai and Nanqi smiled at each other. Meilong suddenly felt a chill down his spine, feeling that the couple had no good ideas. But on second thought, he felt happy again. After all, he wasn't the one who was in trouble.

"Okay, let's go back and prepare as soon as possible based on your cooperation," Mellon said with a smile.

"Add me in." Ai You also smiled, "Don't underestimate the teacher."

"Of course," Shiro said with a smile, "I'm counting on the teacher to give me reliable bugs. The bugs I have right now are totally insufficient."

Now that the problem has been solved, the insects have let go of their mental shackles and the atmosphere has returned to a relaxed state.

Because it was rare for everyone to get together so freely, and various things had made rapid progress in the past month, and Prince Keppel's health had improved a lot, Mellon suggested that Peggy, Todd and others could be called over to indulge themselves together.

Before he could finish his words, Pu Bo attacked him again. Meilong glared at Pu Bo and said, "You're not done yet today, are you? You keep hitting me. I'm going to fight you!"

Pu Bo wasn't afraid of Mellon's bluff. He put his hand on Mellon's forehead, trying to stop the short-legged cat from scratching him. He said, "You're crazy! There are so many things waiting for us to do, and you still want to indulge yourself? How can I indulge you? I'm going to get you drunk as a dregs."

"I didn't say that indulgence means drinking. Can't I sing, play games, chat and relax? Do you know what kind of life I've been living these days!!" Melon roared, finally breaking free from Pu Bo's unreasonable arms, and pounced on Pu Bo, who had beaten him three times in one night.

Soon, the living room was filled with crackling and banging sounds, making it very lively.

Bai felt a little guilty. In order to paralyze the Insect King and make the domineering male insect of Nanqi more stable, he was often late and left early, and occasionally did not go to the military headquarters. Naturally, the work fell on Melon.

Looking at the faint bruises under Mellon's eyes, Bai decided to run away early to avoid being held accountable later, although it was highly likely that Mellon would not dare to do so.

Thinking of this, Bai was about to stand up and say goodbye, but was stopped by Nan Qi.

Bai looked at Nan Qi in confusion, and saw that there seemed to be tiny points of light flashing in Nan Qi's eyes when he looked at him, and his heart unconsciously calmed down.

"Stay," Nan Qi said softly, "Things are starting to wrap up one after another, and we'll be very busy. When we're done, we'll be leaving the Central Star soon, and it won't be easy to get together like today."

After so many days in this world, Nan Qi was not idle when he went to work. He didn't have to go to the mine every day and be burdened by life. He had more time to learn about the new world.

During these days, he had a better understanding of the division of forces in this universe, the development history of the Zerg at various stages, the functions of government titles, the Zerg's hostile forces, the Star Beasts, and the black market that made him extremely curious.

It turns out there is more than one black market.

There are a total of 7 black markets in the Tro system, one on the central star, and the remaining six are located on the main stars of the six departments and thirty-six districts, which are also the planets where the military headquarters are located.

The seven black markets are connected and yet not connected. The wormholes connecting the seven black markets are only opened at fixed times each year for creatures to "visit".

"Visiting" is different from going to the black market in your area. You need to pay a certain fee, and this fee can discourage many creatures.

So if they leave the central star and want to reunite with everyone, they can only wait until the black market opens a connecting wormhole.

Bai was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and felt deeply moved.

Nan Qi was so thoughtful and considerate. He knew that he would miss his friends and teachers after leaving Central Star, so he didn't want to miss this ordinary but precious gathering.

The insects here are all familiar to him. Strictly speaking, Nan Qi is not familiar with the insects present except for himself, the female monarch. It is normal that he does not want to stay, but not only did he not rush to leave, he also held himself back.

How could this not move him? The more he understood Nan Qi, the more he was healed by his gentleness, infected by his optimism and cheerfulness, and impressed by his calmness and wisdom.

Bai thought that if it weren't for a strange combination of circumstances, he would never have such a perfect partner.

But now that he has met her and Nan Qi has said that she likes him, he will never let her go. No matter how good the female insect is who competes with him for Nan, he will never show mercy.

If one day, Nan Qi no longer likes him and wants to leave him, he will lock Nan Qi in the basement so that he can only see himself.

"Bai, what's wrong with you?" Nan Qi's low and magnetic voice suddenly came to his ears. Bai suddenly realized how paranoid, crazy and disgusting his thoughts were just now.

If he really did this, what would be the difference between him and those male insects who rob people by cunning means? Nan Qi would hate him even more.

He exhaled lightly, clearing his mind of some paranoid thoughts, Bai calmed down and looked at Nan Qi: "I'm fine, I just think you're right, it will be difficult for us to get together in the future."

Nan Qi had no doubts, thinking Bai was just upset that he couldn't get together with his friends. He put his arm around his shoulders and comforted him with a smile, "Let's move towards our goal together and strive to restore world peace as soon as possible. Then we'll resign and go wherever we want to play."

"Now, you stay here with the teacher and Mellon and the others. I'll order some food and make something delicious. Let's get together today and go home later."

"Well, I'll go with you."

"No, I'll be back soon."

Nan Qi finished speaking and went to place the order. Melon, with his sharp ears, heard the conversation between Nan Qi and Bai. He cheered, gave up fighting with Pu Bo, ran behind Ai You, and put his arms around Ai You's neck from behind like a spoiled child: "Teacher, can I have some wine?"

"Mellon, you drunkard, and you say you don't want to drink!!!" Pu Bo roared.

Melon made a face at Pu Bo, and Pu Bo was so angry that he and Melon started the second round of PK.

The calm Lunk shook his head. Aiyou and Keppel looked at the two energetic bugs and sighed that it was great to be young. Only Bai stared at the back of Nan Qi who was busy in the kitchen, with love flashing in his eyes that he himself didn't even know about.

Peggy and Todd, who got the news soon, also arrived.

That night, they drank wine, ate delicious snacks, played truth or dare, and sang songs.

Mellon is tone-deaf, Pu Bo has a hoarse voice, Lenk and Todd have saw-mouthed gourds and would rather drink than sing, and Keppel was excluded due to poor health.

Unexpectedly, Ai You and Bai Changge performed very well and were exempted from a round of Truth or Dare.

They all had a great time playing that night until dawn, when the insects tacitly stopped playing and looked at the rising red sun outside the window.

As the red sun rises and day replaces night, it is time for them to embark on a new journey and move forward bravely towards their goals.
