Chapter 182
…
A federal intelligence agency
It was lunchtime, and about ten people were in the office. Because of the successive defeats in the war on the front line, they had to be on standby at all times.
"Look, what kind of laboratory is this? Not only are they illegally conducting experiments on gene collapse disorder, but they are also defrauding a group of healthy people!!" During a rare lunch break, Qian Le, a small employee of the intelligence department, was browsing the Star Network and accidentally came across a few videos.
"Who said it wasn't true? I saw it too, and it looked real. They told me to check the source of these videos and report them to the Star Management! Huh? These videos were actually released from the official website of Chengtong Star in the Mingao Empire!" A colleague next to Qian Le chimed in. He had intended to check the source of the videos so he could report them, but he discovered they were from an official website of a hostile country.
"A few years ago, there was news that the Second Prince of the Austrian Empire, Huo Xi Rex, had participated in a genetic collapse disease experiment and his health had improved. Could it be this experiment? That can't be true..."
"Really? How is that possible? Did you see that? They're recruiting volunteers for the second batch of experiments, one hundred people. It's the same old routine again. The experiment failed and they can't recruit people, so they just advertise randomly! The management of War Star Network has become more and more chaotic in recent years." Another colleague said disapprovingly.
"But the Second Prince of Mingao Empire has been in much better health in recent years. According to common sense, shouldn't he have died at most two years ago?" Qian Le was a little puzzled.
"In our profession, you've seen experimental subjects recover and become as healthy as normal people after an experiment. But within a few years, they'll die in even more painful ways."
"That's true! This lab has only been registered for six years. If they could cure a terminal illness in such a short time, that would be absurd."
"Stop talking nonsense. If you have this time to watch this mess, you might as well do something else."
"Hey, what's the point? We're working ourselves to death here, and we don't even know what's happening. We're just fighting among ourselves. Don't we even look at these past few years..."
He didn't finish his words, but everyone knew what he meant. They kept silent.
The war had become increasingly difficult in recent years, with their federation's territory shrinking by a full fifth, now annexed by the Mingao Empire. However, the leadership was in disarray, plagued by constant internal strife.
After all, it is not like the Mingao Empire, where the Rex family is in power. Although the Federation has a head of state, the head of state's power is very limited, and the people who hold the real power are the leaders of the major families.
Although the current emperor of the Mingao Empire was in poor health, he was a capable and wise ruler. In contrast, the upper echelons of the Federation were mostly selfish and idle. They only cared about their own family power, each trying to dominate the other, with no regard for the interests of their country.
The atmosphere in the Federation office was depressing. Dozens of light years away, there was a small planet in the area governed by the Mingao Empire.
Inside a two-story building that looks very simple.
The girl was about seven or eight years old, with slightly dark skin. She was small and short, and at the moment she was lying on the bed, kicking her feet and crouching on the edge of the bed, sharing what she had seen on the Star Network with her brother who had a hereditary gene collapse syndrome.
"He must be a scammer again, little sister. Don't worry about your brother. You know this disease can't be cured. Don't waste your money on me." The young man watched the video without any ripples in his heart. He just touched the top of the little sister's head and told her not to bother.
As soon as the young man finished speaking, the little girl's eyes instantly filled with tears.
"Don't cry, little sister. You have to hold on for a few more years for your brother."
Both of his parents suffered from gene collapse syndrome, and when he woke up two years ago, he found that he had inherited the disease as expected. Although it was painful, it was his fate and he could only accept it. His parents had passed away long ago, and now the only thing he was worried about was his younger sister. Fortunately, his younger sister was adopted and would not inherit this terrible disease.
"Brother, brother, go, go~" Seeing that her brother had no idea, the girl stuttered and spoke with a hoarse crying voice.
"Little sister, you spoke!!! You spoke! Say it again, say it again." The man became excited when he heard the girl's words. Little sister, little sister, she spoke!
"Brother, brother, go... treat it."
"Okay, okay, I'll go, I'll sign up right away!"
…
After the video was released, there was no publicity, but most people who saw the video did not believe it. Of course, there were a few "exceptions".
