Lingyou wiped the corner of his mouth and chuckled twice: "Isn't this a white lie? Sometimes the more you say, the more mistakes you make. It's better for you to see the real thing."
"Look, this chair. That man was trapped here last time and they injected a lot of drugs into it."
“I could hear his painful screams from outside. I thought he was going to die that time, but I didn’t expect him to come out alive a few days later.”
This man is terrifying. I almost got caught several times. If I had been caught, I would have been killed instantly.
But it was also because of this research institute that it accidentally developed intelligence; otherwise, it would still be that silly weasel that only knew how to eat and sleep.
"So what did you steal just now?" Su Yuxi pointed to the corner of her mouth, directly exposing its trick. This thing was even more cunning than she had imagined. Rather than wanting to bring her back to see some secret base, it was more likely that it wanted to steal something and do her a favor on the side.
Otherwise, it would be a pipe dream for this little thing to leave the island.
The weasel quickly wiped its mouth with its two short hands, looking slightly embarrassed: "It's nothing, just some medicine to strengthen my body."
This was extracted from that man's blood. It was by accident that it licked this stuff last time and gained sentience. It wants to see if it can make itself stronger and more powerful.
Su Yuxi gave it a cold glance but said nothing.
She continued to wander around the surrounding area.
The weasel didn't want to stay any longer; it had already achieved its goal.
"Have you checked? Let's go. They'll find out if the surveillance cameras have been malfunctioning for a long time."
"Hey, don't go outside! I didn't bite any of the security cameras outside!" Seeing Su Yuxi about to leave, the weasel shouted at her in fright.
Su Yuxi stopped in her tracks, turned around and glared at it. This damn thing only cares about itself, doesn't it?
Suddenly... both of their expressions changed.
They all heard a large group of people rushing over from outside, who must have discovered the strange thing here.
The weasel, fearing for its life, immediately began to climb upwards, saying, "Hurry up and get out of here, or they'll catch us."
They have many methods for catching small animals; if you are caught even a moment too late, you will be skinned, deboned, and boiled into soup.
Su Yuxi knew she couldn't stay there any longer, so she ran towards the ventilation shaft.
Just as she brushed past the book, Su Yuxi stopped in her tracks, hesitated for a moment, then turned around and ran back to take the diary with her.
She transformed back into a fox, leaping lightly onto the ventilation duct and pressing the iron frame back into place with fluid, effortless movements, just as when they first arrived.
The moment they turned to leave, the people outside burst in.
But in the end, it was still a step too late.
The bodyguards stared at the empty laboratory with eyes as sharp as hawks, not missing a single subtle change.
After confirming that no one else was around, they cautiously entered the room and began to carefully examine every corner and every item on the shelves.
They can spot even the slightest difference immediately.
With the other team members reporting back in the same unanimous manner, they felt a little more at ease.
"Wait a minute," someone called out a different reply.
The man carefully noticed a drop of water-like liquid on the ground, which was still wet. He squatted down, touched the dampness with his fingertip, and smelled it.
All sound seemed to freeze in the air, leaving only their faint breathing.
When he smelled what it was, his expression changed drastically, and he immediately ordered that the object be examined inch by inch.
...
Even after escaping, Su Yuxi's heart was still pounding wildly, and she still felt palpitations and lingering fear from what had just happened.
Luckily I ran fast, otherwise I would have been caught.
They followed the path they had come from to the cave entrance, where the tide had already risen, making them even more grateful that they had escaped in time.
Otherwise, once the seawater floods in, it will become a luxury to get out alive.
However, just as they breathed a sigh of relief, the sound of an alarm from within the island suddenly filled their ears. The sound was sharp and urgent, piercing through the silent night and reaching the depths of their souls.
Those still fast asleep, upon hearing the urgent call to action, all jumped out of bed, hurriedly threw on their clothes, and rushed toward the assembly point.
Su Yuxi cursed inwardly, realizing something was wrong. Did they have to react so quickly? She hadn't even left yet and they'd already discovered her.
How is she supposed to go back now?
"Hey, woman, come quick! There's a boat here!" came the excited voice of the weasel from outside the cave.
A hint of surprise rose in Su Yuxi's heart, and she took the book out with her in her mouth.
Because of the rising tide, the ship is now at the same level as them. As long as they jump on board, they can immediately leave this godforsaken place.
"But why is there a boat here?" Now, Su Yuxi is wary of anything that is readily available, for fear that someone might try to scheme against her again.
Lingyou didn't care about anything else and jumped on impatiently: "Who cares? As long as we have a boat, we can leave. Hurry up and get on. If you don't get on, they'll realize you broke into the lab and they'll take you back and torture you."
Su Yuxi's heart skipped a beat, and a look of astonishment flashed in her eyes: "What do you mean?"
Lingyou was so anxious he was about to jump up and down, not understanding why she was still dawdling there: "No one can go in that place without orders. Someone accidentally went in and was thrown into the sea to feed the sharks that very night. Not only did you go in, but you also touched the things up there. If you get caught, do you think you'll have any chance of surviving?"
It's just a small animal on the island, and even if it's spotted, as long as it runs fast, nobody will care.
But she's different.
"hurry up."
Su Yuxi was still hesitating, her mind indecisive. Here, she could vaguely hear some faint conversations from afar. They had discovered that someone had broken into the laboratory and were now ordering everyone to begin a thorough search of the island.
We must find this person.
The villa was shrouded in tension; under their powerful actions, even a worm hidden in the sand would be captured.
It's obviously too late for her to go back now.
Moreover, if they are found and taken back this time, it will be even more difficult for them to get out again.
Not to mention escaping the island.
She had no other choice.
The only option is to run.
It would be foolish not to use the readily available tools.
After much deliberation, Su Yuxi finally made up her mind.
With a push of her hind legs, she leaped onto the yacht with the diary in her mouth, effortlessly and gracefully.
Upon arrival at the yacht, they immediately transformed into people and headed straight for the control panel.
Su Yuxi looked at the messy pile of things above her head, her mind a jumbled mess.
Why are there so many dashboards?
It has a steering wheel, so it should be similar to driving a car.
She looked down, searching for the switch, muttering to herself, "How do I turn this on?"
She's never driven one before.
