Having not slept all night, Sang You got up as dawn broke and prepared to go to Old Zhao's place.
Seeing this, Sang Ze was a little worried and said, "Sang You, you went out yesterday, why did you come back looking so preoccupied?"
"Did something go wrong at your job?"
Not wanting Sang Ze to worry, Sang You comforted him, "It's nothing. I was just thinking that I have to go to work tomorrow, and you'll have to take care of everything at home by yourself."
Sangze walked over, patted him on the shoulder and said, "What's the big deal? We're brothers!"
Sang You arrived at Zhao Lao's laboratory early in the morning to find him.
When Old Zhao saw that it was Sang You, he excitedly stood up to greet him. He knew that if Sang You had helped, this matter would have been much simpler for them.
Sang You asked Old Zhao about his doubts: "I want to know where yesterday's data came from."
Seeing that Sang You was being direct, Old Zhao didn't mince words and replied, "They caught him when the military was withdrawing from the AAC district."
"Because we weren't sure what species it was, we did genetic testing for comparison, which is what you saw yesterday."
Sang You frowned slightly after hearing this: "Then how did you catch them?"
Recalling what he knew, Old Zhao slowly said, "When we caught it, it was already severely injured and barely clinging to life."
"But he's dead now."
After hearing this, Sang You pressed for details: "What was the cause of death? Was it examined?"
"We've checked, but we still haven't found the cause."
"However, judging from the wound, it doesn't seem to be man-made..."
...
Shen Zhijie looked at the medicine in front of him, then at Xiao Mu's back, gritted his teeth, and finally chose to pick up the medicine and inject himself.
Seeing Shen Zhijie's difficult choice, Jiang Yao turned her head away, feeling somewhat reluctant.
Xiao Mu helped Shen Zhijie, who had just been injected with the medicine and was in a deep sleep, to the bed, and told Jiang Yao to keep an eye on him and call her if anything happened.
Xiao Mu got into the driver's seat, started the car, and drove away.
Upon arriving in District AAC, Xiao Mu looked at this once bustling city, now completely deserted.
Looking at the scene outside the car, Jiang Yao could imagine how prosperous this city had once been, but unfortunately, the disaster brought its prosperity to an end prematurely.
Xiao Mu drove the car to the front of a private villa and stopped. He opened the car door and said to Jiang Yao, "Wait here for me. I'll be right back."
The outdoor temperature was already close to 50°C. Jiang Yao watched Xiao Mu's departing figure with some worry.
After a long wait, Xiao Mu walked quickly back in the sweltering heat, started the car, and drove into the villa's parking area.
Xiao Mu helped Shen Zhijie into the villa, led him to a bedroom on the first floor, and turned on the air conditioner to quickly lower the indoor temperature.
Jiang Yao was stunned by the scene inside the villa. As expected of a top-tier world, it was magnificent and extremely luxurious.
Jiang Yao looked at Xiao Mu and slowly asked, "Is this your home?"
Xiao Mu said casually, glossing over the matter: "It's just a temporary place to stay."
Jiang Yao raised an eyebrow slightly after hearing this.
Temporary accommodation?
Ultra-luxury villas, exquisite paintings?
He calls this a place to settle down?
Xiao Mu single-handedly raised the level of the landing point.
Jiang Yao instantly felt her perspective broaden.
No wonder it's AAC District, a dream home for the rich!
He scoffs at money; that's impressive.
Xiao Mu called Jiang Yao to a mural and stopped her there. With a few simple movements from Xiao Mu, the mural flipped open.
Jiang Yao watched Xiao Mu's actions and felt like she didn't understand the world of the rich.
After the two entered the secret passage.
Xiao Mu gave Jiang Yao a brief introduction to the place and asked her to help him take his things with him.
At this moment, Jiang Yao's mind was filled with what Xiao Mu had just said, "I hope she can help take the things here with her."
How many valuable items must there be!
Seeing the multiple expressions on Jiang Yao's face, Xiao Mu chuckled softly, leaned forward, and whispered in her ear, "What are you thinking about?"
Jiang Yao's cheeks began to flush, and she looked at Xiao Mu innocently before lowering her head and whispering, "I wasn't thinking anything!"
Xiao Mu paused in front of a door, looking at Jiang Yao with a firm and serious gaze, and slowly said, "What you see inside might be a little hard to accept."
“But we must take these things to Haizhou.”
"Because it concerns our future."
Seeing Xiao Mu's serious and understanding attitude, Jiang Yao realized the gravity of the situation and also became serious.
When Xiao Mu opened the door, Jiang Yao was completely shocked.
Xiao Mu actually has such a large collection of guns! You know we're not women, so it's illegal to own guns here, let alone collect them.
Seeing that Jiang Yao's attention was on the gun, Xiao Mu put his right hand to his lips, coughed lightly, and said, "What I want you to see is not this, but this thing."
“I discovered these by chance during a security operation with Shen Zhijie in Zone AAB.” He said, pointing to the wall on the right.
Jiang Yao turned her gaze away from the gun and looked somewhat reluctantly at the wall on her right.
There was a special display shelf on the wall with some folders whose names and numbers were unreadable.
Xiao Mu pointed to the folders and said, "Please keep these things safe for me."
Jiang Yao readily stored the documents into her spatial storage, then walked to Xiao Mu's side and slowly said, "Um, could you give me a gun as a reward?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Mu smiled slightly and said, "These are the rewards." He then pointed towards the door.
