Xia Heguang hurried past the laboratory before heading to where Xia Shuang was.
Before the other person passed by, Qin Tan hid under the table to avoid being spotted at a glance.
The angel switched over to the surveillance camera.
In the video, Xia Heguang's originally gloomy eyes softened when he saw Xia Shuang, showing a deep father-daughter bond.
"Dad, what brings you here?"
On the contrary, Xia Yao was very dissatisfied with Xia Heguang's personal appearance, as it was a slap in the face for her.
"Let's check on things. Is everything alright?"
Xia Heguang's gaze fell on the vial of medicine in Xia Shuang's palm, and his expression relaxed slightly.
Where is Miss Qin?
When he realized Qin Tan wasn't there, the darkness in his eyes resurfaced.
Xia Heguang inquired about Qin Tan's whereabouts.
The feigned gentleness felt particularly fake.
"Do we have to report to you where we're going?"
Xia Shuang's attitude was exceptionally sharp. No matter how Xia Heguang tried to please her, the disgust on her face never disappeared.
"She was just here."
Xia Yao answered.
Xia Yao, unaware of her father's true intentions, longed for his approval.
"What's wrong?"
A voice came from inside; it was Qin Tan.
"I went to the restroom, is anyone looking for me?"
Qin Tan shook the water off her hands and stood in front of Xia Shuang, asking her a question.
"It's nothing, I've just heard so much about you and wanted to come and see Miss Qin in person."
"Miss Qin is just as I imagined."
Xia Heguang extended his hand in a friendly manner: "Hello, I am Xia Heguang, the president of Sun God Group, and also Xia Shuang's father."
"You can call me Uncle Xia."
For Xia Heguang to say these words was already giving Qin Tan enough face.
Qin Tan glanced at the other person a few times and shook hands with him.
"Hello, Mr. Xia, I am Qin Tan. I hope I am not disappointing you in person."
The two men exuded a powerful, head-on clash.
"Of course not."
“I also hope that my Xia Yao can learn more from you. You don’t know, she often mentions you after she came back from outside the wall.”
"I believe you can be a good role model."
Xia Heguang's words deflected Qin Tan's barbed words.
"By the way, I saw that you applied to inspect this regeneration potion. This potion has been discontinued for a long time, so it shouldn't be related to this case, right?"
Now, Xia Heguang returns to the main topic.
Xia Shuang's eyes flickered and landed on Qin Tan.
"We checked it, but found nothing."
"It was mentioned in the documents, and I thought it would be safe to ask Secretary Zhang for help."
"It's alright, isn't it?"
Qin Tan threw the topic back at the other person with a smile.
"Of course it's alright, but this medicine has been out of production for a long time, and we don't know how effective it is now, so it can't be released again."
"Since everything is alright, Secretary Zhang, please put this medicine away for now. If we need it again later, we can apply for it."
He gave Secretary Zhang a look.
Secretary Zhang nervously took the items and nodded to indicate that she understood.
"Alright, then I won't disturb you two any longer. Please continue."
Xia Heguang, who had come and gone in a hurry, was about to leave when Xia Yao glared at him fiercely before also leaving.
Faintly, one could still hear Xia Yao and Xia Heguang's coquettish words.
The way Xia Heguang responded at that time was more genuinely warm than when he spoke to Xia Shuang.
After those people left, Xia Shuang rubbed her temples wearily.
"Did you really find nothing?"
In a blind spot of the surveillance camera, Xia Shuang asked Qin Tan a question.
Before Qin Tan could answer, her bracelet vibrated a few times; it was a message from the angel.
"Someone is checking the security cameras on this floor to see if I went to the restroom just now."
Qin Tan smiled knowingly.
It seems she has grasped the key point.
Otherwise, why would the other side go to such lengths?
It seems that Xia and Guang even abandoned an important meeting to come here.
"That……"
Xia Shuang asked with concern.
"Don't worry, there are angels around. What those people see is what I'm talking about."
The records of the machines she used were also deleted by the angels.
The Sun God, who obtained the Angel System from Base 8, has indeed made rapid progress in network technology.
But what they didn't know was that by taking those codes from the Angel System, they were essentially leaving a backdoor for the angels to enter at any time.
After explaining the situation to Xia Shuang, she took out two test reports from her pocket.
"This is the result of my testing of the revitalizing agent."
"The next document is the one from back then."
Xia Shuang examined them separately and eventually found that the two reports were 99% identical. The only difference was in Qin Tan's report.
The label above indicates that the resurrection potion contains an ingredient that has not been found in the entire Federation.
The angels searched the database of all drugs but could not find a match.
So many years have passed, and there is no possibility that it is a new discovery that has not yet been made public.
"They falsified the test report."
Xia Shuang's voice was unusually cold and deep.
"As expected of them, they haven't changed at all over the years."
Is there a way to find out what this ingredient is?
There was a question mark on the ingredient list.
"It's difficult."
Qin Tan shook her head.
Angel only has a search function; it can only be confirmed after finding the source of the ingredient for comparison.
"So you suspect that this ingredient is what caused these people..."
