Chapter 61 is about electricity. The female researcher…

It is electric current.

The female researcher never imagined that one day she would see such an overwhelming amount of electricity.

The currents intertwined to form an electric grid, moving closer to the female researcher.

The female researcher and those around her didn't even have time to utter a cry of alarm before the power grid swept past them.

They stopped breathing instantly.

At this time, the other people in the building were unaware of what had happened.

A researcher by the window saw a beautiful scene.

He looked out the window and saw the entire building's steel frame being enveloped in blue and white electric currents, which flowed along the building's outline like molten metal.

Someone took out their phone to capture this spectacular scene.

The next second, "Bang!"

The tempered glass embedded in the window suddenly shattered, and billions of sharp fragments, enveloped in electric current, swept across the entire building like bullets.

Those by the window were instantly riddled with bullets.

Others were not spared either, and the building fell into a deathly silence in an instant.

Outside, the firefighters who quickly reacted and came to put out the fire noticed the abnormality as soon as they got out of their vehicle.

The fire here doesn't look big, but the steel frame outside the building is flashing an ominous red, like a breathing light. But once you get a little closer, you'll know that the steel has been melted by the high temperature.

They watched helplessly as the entire steel structure softened and twisted.

A firefighter accidentally touched the steel frame outside the building, and his explosion-proof gloves were instantly charred.

The first firefighters who approached the building reported that the entire building was now electrified and they could not enter.

The person reporting the incident said with a look of utter disbelief, "This isn't a fire, it's like someone stuffed this building into a microwave oven."

Seeing that they couldn't handle the building, the firefighters had no choice but to begin evacuating the surrounding crowd. They even contacted the park's management and requested that the park be emptied.

Gu Sheng had no idea about the chaos in L City; all he knew was that he could get a good night's sleep tonight.

The next day, Gu Sheng didn't get up until noon. With the mission canceled, he had nothing to do.

Gu Sheng opened his phone and glanced at it. There were no missed calls. Then, he belatedly realized that his phone was in Xia Yunzhou's hands.

The new phone had nothing on it, and Gu Sheng found it a bit inconvenient to use.

However, he still sent a message to Xiao Yi first, telling him that he would be using this number for the time being.

After the message was sent, Xiao Yi called immediately.

Gu Sheng answered the phone, but the other end remained silent, seemingly waiting for Gu Sheng to speak first.

Gu Sheng asked, "What is it?"

A voice came from the other end: "Is it really you?"

Why did you suddenly change your phone number?

Gu Sheng briefly recounted Xia Yunzhou's situation, which filled Xiao Yi with righteous indignation.

"He's gone too far. Does he think he can do whatever he wants just because he's the bank manager?"

Gu Sheng said, "Alright, it's nothing important anyway, let him take it if he wants, don't do anything unnecessary."

Gu Sheng guessed that Xiao Yi wanted to help him get his things back, so he gave him a warning in advance.

He had just turned down a task and didn't want to attract Xia Yunzhou's attention for the time being.

Gu Sheng added, "Don't cause me any trouble."

Xiao Yi paused for a moment before replying, "Yes."

Gu Sheng hung up the phone and thought about searching for news in L City. As soon as he opened the search engine, he saw the following trending topics: "Strange fire breaks out in L City", "Baiyu Biotechnology headquarters attacked, no one injured", "Unknown space appears at Baiyu Biotechnology headquarters".

Gu Sheng clicked in and took a look.

The strange fire must have happened last night.

The phrase "zero injuries" refers to the fact that none of the employees registered with Baiyu Biotechnology were injured.

The "unknown space" that follows refers to the fact that due to the strange fire, some of the walls inside the building collapsed, revealing spaces that even the headquarters staff were unaware of before.

Gu Sheng then searched again and found that the top result was a video statement from the L City Public Security Bureau.

After Gu Sheng clicked in, he met the director of the L City Public Security Bureau for the first time. She was a very capable-looking woman.

With sharp eyes, she recounted her findings to the media.

In short: First, the cause of the incident has not yet been found. Second, unknown spaces have indeed appeared in the building, and the police department is investigating these suddenly appearing spaces.

After reading it, Gu Sheng went back to the search page and refreshed it. Two very popular news items appeared instantly.

One incident occurred at Baiyu Biotechnology. Baiyu Biotechnology requested the Public Security Bureau to stop the investigation, stating that the building was their private property and that they would have a specialist investigate the cause of the incident.

The second statement was also issued by the Commissioner of Public Security, who stated that after searching the building, a large number of undeclared experimental equipment and materials were found in those unknown areas.

The director did not disclose the researchers inside. She only said that she suspected Baiyu Bio was conducting illegal experiments, so she decided to temporarily seal off Baiyu Bio's headquarters and decide whether to lift the seal after the subsequent investigation results were released.

This director is giving Xia Yunzhou so much trouble; you can tell he must be a very difficult person to deal with.

This person had been opposing Baiyu Biotechnology for a while, but unfortunately, no evidence could be found.

This time, she found concrete evidence, and she had to make Baiyu Biotechnology suffer a huge loss.

This Baiyu creature seems to be important to Xia Yunzhou and the organization behind him.

Xia Yunzhou will be busy from now on.

Xia Yunzhou definitely won't have time to keep an eye on Gu Sheng lately.

While we have this little bit of time, let's find a way to get Du Wanxing out. At the very least, we need to see him alive or dead.

Gu Sheng stayed in his room for two days, observing the people watching him from outside.

Xia Yunzhou did not remove those people, but he also did not add any more.

After figuring out where those people were, Gu Sheng simply bypassed them and slipped away.

After leaving, Gu Sheng contacted Shen An directly, and the two met at their usual spot.

On the surface, Gu Sheng and Shen An have no connection whatsoever.

Even Xia Yunzhou couldn't have imagined that Gu Sheng had a connection with a low-level bank employee.

Inside the small shop, Shen An looked restless.

Gu Sheng sat down opposite him: "What's wrong? What happened?"

Shen An looked at Gu Sheng and sighed.

He lowered his head, took a sip of water, and said, "Do you know Baiyu Biotechnology?"

Gu Sheng was taken aback, and asked with a strange expression, "I've heard of it, what's wrong?"

Shen An looked down at his cup, oblivious to Gu Sheng's unusual expression: "The department previously investigated the flow of funds at the Development Bank of City A. Based on the investigation results, they suspect the bank has some connection with Baiyu Biotechnology."

He frowned and said, "Just yesterday, the headquarters of Baiyu Biotechnology suddenly caught fire."

He looked up at Gu Sheng, who had already composed himself and was now looking at Shen An with a serious expression.

Shen An continued, "According to internal sources, the L City power grid experienced a sudden large-scale fluctuation last night, and Baiyu Bio was at the epicenter of the fluctuation."

"The investigation results show that this was the cause of the fire at Baiyu Biotechnology. In addition, there was also a problem with the internal power grid of Baiyu Biotechnology, which led to such a disastrous result."

Gu Sheng nodded; this was the result he wanted. Then, looking at the worried Shen An, he said, "Then isn't this just an accident?"

Shen An said, "Is it really just an accident? Du Wanxing was originally from L City. The evidence he has might be related to Baiyu Biotechnology. Now that Baiyu Biotechnology is in trouble, could it be that they want to destroy the evidence?"

Gu Sheng tilted his head slightly. He didn't know why Shen An would have such a thought. Baiyu Bio was worth millions and was one of the top three pharmaceutical companies.

It's hard to believe they would destroy such a large company just to erase evidence.

Shen An seemed to see through Gu Sheng's thoughts. He said, "Maybe I'm overthinking it." He looked out the window. "However, apart from the organization behind the bank, I can't think of anyone else who could set Baiyu Bio's headquarters on fire."

Gu Sheng pursed his lips; he genuinely didn't feel that this was any difficult task.

He wondered uncertainly: Could it be that in other people's eyes, this is a very difficult thing to do?

Gu Sheng had never thought about it in this way; he just wanted to find something for Xia Yunzhou to do and skip a mission.

Gu Shengzhuang asked casually, "Who do you think did this?"

Shen An shook his head: "This is not something one person can do. It must be an organization. This organization must have gathered many elites from various industries. They must have been planning this for no less than a year."

Gu Sheng nodded ambiguously: "Is that so? Does it take this long to plan?"

Shen An seemed to be having a headache over this suddenly appearing "mysterious organization".

"Before the bank could even finish its investigation, a new mysterious organization has emerged."

He twirled the water glass and said, "I have a feeling things are going to get turbulent lately."

Gu Sheng opened his mouth, wanting to say: It's not that bad.

But in the end he said nothing.

Gu Sheng changed the subject: "Has Du Wanxing's safe house been found?"

Shen An snapped out of his reverie and looked at Gu Sheng: "Not yet, but I heard that the head of the security department has been frequently going to the same place recently, and he always feels terrible after leaving there."

Gu Sheng really didn't know about this: "Who told you this? Who in the bank could know Wen Yan's whereabouts?"

Shen An said, "They're not from the bank. I know some homeless people. You know, A City has no shortage of homeless people. They're everywhere. If we use them as informants, we can get some information that we wouldn't normally get."

Gu Sheng understood that Shen An was actually a decent undercover agent and intelligence officer, but he seemed somewhat powerless against Gu Sheng, who was a complete glitch in the system.

Gu Sheng said, "This is very important intelligence. I will keep a close eye on Wen Yan's movements in the future."

Shen An asked, "How about your end? How's it going? Is Xiao Yi easy to get along with?"

In Shen An's view, Gu Sheng got in touch with Xiao Yi through his identity as a former member of Ouroboros, and now Gu Sheng should be working for Xiao Yi.

Gu Sheng felt his mouth was a little dry, so he took a sip of water and said, "It's alright. Although Xiao Yi's temper is a bit unpredictable, he's still easy to get along with as long as he's obedient."
