"So you think this apostle surnamed Li is an imposter?" Night asked. "You think she lied?"
“No, I don’t think she’s lying. She seems to have really heard the voice of a god.” Linna paused for a moment, then continued, “And her divine power is genuine.”
Night: "So what exactly are you doubting?"
"Not long after Yecheng was polluted by those extradimensional auras with traces of artificial synthesis, the apostles of the Void God appeared," Lin Nai said. "Both are of the Void attribute, so it's hard not to wonder if there's some connection between them."
"Hmm...that's true." Night nodded in agreement.
"No, these two things are just a coincidence that happened to come together," Tang Hongshan's voice came.
Tang Hongshan came down from the leader's office on the second floor.
He seemed a little thirsty, so he picked up a cup of tea from the coffee table and gulped it down several times.
"Captain Tang, you're back." Anan looked up and asked curiously, "You said these two things are unrelated? Why do you say that?"
Lin Yuxi also asked, "Captain Tang, what about Li Mengyu?"
“Miss Li has already returned to the capital,” Tang Hongshan said. “It is said that she came to Yecheng only after listening to the revelation of the gods, and received the awakening of the power of the God of Void, becoming an apostle. Now that she has awakened, she has naturally gone back.”
"So she can actually communicate with the gods?..." Yang Xiaochuan scratched his head, feeling somewhat astonished.
The idea that humans can communicate with deities remains somewhat unbelievable to this day...
"Hey, don't interrupt." Ah Guang asked, "Captain Tang, what you just said, does it mean that the investigation into this pollution incident has uncovered something?"
"Hmm." Tang Hongshan nodded, his expression serious. "We have found out who was behind this incident. After Lin Nai discovered that the pollution might be artificially synthesized, the Night Watch team immediately began to investigate, retrieving surveillance footage from all the city's surveillance cameras. They eventually discovered that someone deliberately released this synthetic gas into the city."
Lin Nai narrowed his eyes and asked, "Who is it?"
Tang Hongshan slowly and deliberately uttered four words: "Gene Company".
Lin Nai's eyebrows twitched slightly.
Ye Wan'er crossed her arms and leaned against the side, saying, "A gene company? Do they have the ability to collect extradimensional energy and then artificially synthesize it?"
"After our analysis, we found that this artificial synthesis technology is not as powerful as we imagined," Tang Hongshan said slowly. "Although the extradimensional aura is a substance that we humans should never touch, all they did was collect corpses that were contaminated and corroded by the extradimensional aura, take samples, then artificially synthesize it, dilute it, and then release it into the air of Yecheng."
"This works?" A-Guang's eyes widened. "It's that simple?"
"It's that simple."
"But what is their purpose in doing this?" Anan asked, puzzled.
"The gene drug industry in Yecheng is almost entirely monopolized by gene companies," Tang Hongshan said. "Within this week, due to the pollution of the people by the other-dimensional aura, the sales of gene drugs by gene companies have directly increased more than twenty times."
"That's outrageous!" Lin Yuxi clenched her little fist, bared her small tiger tooth, and said indignantly, "How can there be such a hateful company that profits from such a disaster!"
Everyone else looked indignant after hearing this.
During the previous National Freshman Competition, the gene company had already attracted a lot of hatred.
This latest move has only fueled public anger to its peak!
Lin Nai frowned deeply.
wrong......
Based on my previous dealings with the gene company, it is definitely an experienced company.
Even if they were to secretly do something bad, they would definitely clean up their mess and be meticulous in every step, so that no one could easily find any fault or evidence against them.
This time, the Night Watch only conducted an investigation for less than a day, yet they already discovered that it was the gene company that did it?
Moreover, given the size of Genes Corporation, as a world-class super conglomerate, do they really care about such a small amount of money?
Is it really necessary to resort to such means, even at the cost of offending the Yan government, to exchange for such a small amount of money?
Linna felt as if she had caught a whiff of something strange and a conspiracy...
Dingzi asked, "Captain Tang, what about the evidence? Have you found any evidence yet?"
"Yes, we caught them." Tang Hongshan said, "We have basically caught all the people who released the pollution on the spot. They are indeed employees of the gene company, and they have all confessed that their superiors instructed them to do so. We have also found mechanical equipment for synthesizing pollutants in their homes."
"..." Lin Nai frowned, feeling increasingly uneasy.
"Great!" Ah Guang said excitedly, "Then can we raid their house this time?"
"Yes, the orders have been issued from above." Tang Hongshan said solemnly, "During the last competition, the gene company did such despicable things, which aroused the dissatisfaction of many bigwigs above, but they were hampered by a lack of evidence. This time, since we have caught them red-handed, the higher-ups have ordered us to directly eradicate the gene company's branches in Yecheng!"
"Eliminate them directly?" Anan's eyes widened.
Tang Hongshan: "Yes, shut down the entire industrial chain of Yecheng Gene Company, arrest the main person in charge of the Yecheng branch of Gene Company, and arrest all employees of Yecheng Gene Company, from senior management to lower-level employees, leave no one unpunished!"
"…Good heavens!" Ah Guang slapped his thigh and laughed heartily, "Hahahaha, this is great! I've been waiting for this day for so long! I've been fed up with those bastards at the gene company for ages!"
Everyone looked extremely excited, clearly having harbored resentment towards the gene company for a long time.
Last time, although everyone had already attacked the gene company, it was actually just a warning.
This time it's different.
The higher-ups have made it clear that they intend to completely eradicate the Yecheng Gene Company branch!
Tang Hongshan took a deep breath and then said, "Notify all team members that we will assemble and depart in one hour!"
"Okay, okay." Ah Guang rubbed his hands together, looking expectant.
Tang Hongshan turned to look at Lin Nai again: "Lin Nai, you're still on vacation, so you don't need to come with us."
