Chapter 408: Uncovering the Secrets of the Castle
Jingshu nodded in understanding. Isn't it because this castle is too dangerous and they know it, so they dressed like this?
Thinking of this, Jingshu just found an excuse and said goodbye to Eiffel, ignoring his persistence in asking for more balls. She took Xiao Hei, the portable translator, and followed the lady. Today, she wanted to see what tricks this Dr. B was up to.
While her teammates were preoccupied with figuring out how to get the vegetable drying technology and equipment out of the castle, Jingshu set her sights on Dr. B. She simply wanted to know if this special material was as good as the rumors said. And if it was, why hadn't she heard about it in her past life? Could this Dr. B have traveled through time?
Austin Castle is not like other places. It is bright everywhere. It is impossible to hide in the dark. There are also identity checks at every intersection. However, the lady did not get checked at all thanks to this dress. Jingshu even thought about stealing some of the clothes to complete the mission plan.
Soon, the lady kept her distance, and Jingshu took Xiao Hei and swiped six or seven identities along the way. After reporting several verification codes, they finally arrived at a corner building in the big castle. This was a four-story fully enclosed building with an entire wall without windows or glass.
This surprised Jingshu a little. She thought Dr. B would be active in the central area, but she didn't expect him to be so low-key, and even his living place was so formal.
This is Dr. B's private territory. There are security guards and security checks at the gate. Jingshu felt the snake's position and circled around trying to climb over through the window or the wall, but unfortunately she couldn't find a window because this is an integrated building.
And there is only one main entrance, which the security guard Jing Shu can solve. But there is a pass at the door, and ladies have to swipe the pass, for fear of setting off an alarm and alerting the enemy. Jing Shu circled around the building in melancholy, but finally found that smoke was coming out of the chimney on the top floor!
You can go in through the chimney!
Jingshu finally climbed up the smooth wall by pulling the clumsy Xiao Hei, and like Spider-Man she reached the top, removed the chimney, and crawled in herself.
"Cough cough!" Even though Jingshu wore a gas mask, she was still choked, and there was this strange smell, and she didn't know what was burning!
Xiao Hei has been smoked to the point of blending into the surrounding environment.
Jingshu reached the top floor through the chimney and looked around. The house was very cold and half filled with black debris of unknown origin. Apart from that, there was nothing valuable to steal.
The noise made by Jingshu did not attract anyone. After Jingshu released a dozen snakes to act as her eyes, she walked straight towards where the lady was.
Most of the rooms were locked, and Jingshu was not interested in checking what was in these houses. She quickly found where the lady was. This was the hall of the room. The man in the middle of the hall was holding a test tube and doing various experiments. He had almost all the characteristics of a doctor: fluffy and messy hair, a pair of round-frame glasses, a red nose and a white coat.
Jing Shu held her breath, but at this moment she heard that Ms. Yuan's coldness and disdain were gone. She was panicked and at a loss:
"Bit, someone in the castle has managed to cultivate medicinal herbs. Aren't you worried at all? You know, she couldn't cultivate them under the focusing stone, but she used her own method to cultivate medicinal herbs. Soon, very soon, they will discover the secret of the focusing stone!"
Dr. B wasn't panicking at all. He shook the test subject and said, "My dear, I know that the secret of the Focusing Stone will be exposed sooner or later. However... by that day, everyone in the castle will probably be dead. The radiation from the Focusing Stone is enough to kill everyone within a month and cause 98% of people to suffer from diseases they can never cure."
"But, but what can we do? We are under house arrest now. Even if we have anti-radiation suits, what can we do? We are here to defraud them of their supplies. We are a gang of scammers, not here to become doctors!
We can’t even memorize the periodic table!
Bit, if we don't find a way to get those supplies out, we will be trapped inside! Once they find out, have you forgotten how tragically Z and Y died? Have you forgotten the underground
How many people have been imprisoned and tortured? "
"Dear, dear, don't worry. I know the deaths of Z and Y have left a shadow on you. If they hadn't pushed me so hard back then, I wouldn't have come up with such a half-finished product... I know I have to hurry. Some people have recently shown signs of leukemia, and some have had constant nosebleeds. But I haven't thought much of it. After all, radiation does give people overall strength and quality."
"Damn it, even if we have all the power, we can't leave the castle...
But, the radiation from the focusing stone is too strong. Even if we build this radiation-proof house, even if there are no windows to prevent light from coming in, even if we install a purifier, it will be useless. We will get sick and die if we live here for a few more months!
You must find a way to take the supplies and get us out of here before the people in power get suspicious. I don't want to stay in this horrible place any longer, not even for a moment!"
Dr. B shook the test tube and said, "Look, there was once a famous Chinese trick called creating something out of nothing. I borrowed that trick and created a new one. I call it the Water of Life."
"Water of Life? Does it have anything to do with our plan this time?"
"Of course, I will conduct some experiments on those in power and stupid humans, and tell them that after using the Water of Life and my method of use, no matter it is crops, oil, or food, they will undergo qualitative changes, with the yield increased by 50% or becoming 50% larger without any loss. Wow, one grain of rice will become two grains of rice. Do you think they will go crazy and want this Water of Life?" Dr. B laughed.
Jingshu squinted her eyes in the dark and listened to the conversation between the two people and Xiao Hei's translation. She was shocked at first and then silent. She never expected that the magical material she wanted to bring back to China was made of a large amount of radiation. It would cause cancer if exposed to it for a long time. It was terrible!
