Inside Charles's office, traces of formic acid corrosion can still be seen on the walls.
Lu Yuan could foresee how serious Charles's injuries must have been after the termite queen self-destructed.
Then Lu Yuan saw half a metal cabinet. Yes, it was half a metal cabinet.
Because the remaining metal cabinets had already been corroded by formic acid.
Lu Yuan took out one file folder after another and looked at them. The documents inside were basically destroyed. Although there was still some text inside, Lu Yuan's English was not very good.
Zhou Tong acted as Lu Yuan's translator throughout the journey, so Lu Yuan simply handed the documents to Zhou Tong.
"Old Zhou, take a look at these documents and see if you can find anything!"
Zhou Tong nodded, then took the file bag, took out the contents, glanced at them, and shook his head.
"No, they're all military transfer orders!"
Then, Zhou Tong continued to rummage through the drawers and cabinets, while Lu Yuan looked along the walls, trying to find some secret safes or something similar.
Just as Lu Yuan was about to walk around the table, he finally noticed that although the top of the table was corroded and mottled, the bottom was completely intact.
So he quickly turned back and adjusted the position of the table.
Looking inside by the light, Lu Yuan was surprised to find a laptop inside.
"Old Zhou! Old Zhou, come and take a look! We found a notebook in here!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Tong immediately put down the documents in his hand and walked over.
Lu Yuan reached out and wiped the dust off the laptop, then looked at the brand of the laptop.
"I don't think I've ever seen this laptop brand before!"
Zhou Tong smiled and said, "Of course you won't see it, because this is a military computer used exclusively by the top brass of the United States! The encryption inside is very strong! You'll probably have to go to Jock and see if he can crack it! As far as I know, if the password is wrong on this military laptop, it may automatically destroy the files inside, so be careful!"
Lu Yuan knew the importance of the notebook, so he carefully placed it on his arm and said to Zhou Tong, "Old Zhou, I'll leave this to you. I'll go in first and see if Qiao Ke can open this notebook!"
"Okay! I'll take care of this!"
So, Lu Yuan handed the necklace to Zhou Tong, and then flashed directly into the dimensional space.
At this moment, Jock is also starting to mass-produce some equipment for the construction of the new city, such as LCD screens for gas masks and some radiation-resistant electronic devices.
Seeing how busy Qiao Ke was, Lu Yuan nodded with satisfaction and went inside.
"Brother Lu, you're here!"
Lu Yuan nodded, then carefully placed the notebook in his hand on the desk.
"This is a military computer from the United States, and it probably contains some important data, so I need you to crack it!"
Jock immediately put down what he was holding, wiped his hands on his oil-stained clothes, and picked up the notebook.
"Wow! That's advanced! No wonder it's military equipment from the beacon of light!"
"How's it going? Can you crack it? There might be some important data inside! But if the password is wrong, the data inside might be automatically destroyed!"
Jock nodded: "I'll give it a try! I can't guarantee anything! Because I've never seen this thing before!"
Next, Jock turned on the light, carefully examined the laptop's exterior, and finally cautiously opened it.
After observing for a while, he shook his head: "We need fingerprints. If we don't have fingerprints, it could be bad!"
"Fingerprints? Can these be replicated?"
"It can't be replicated! There's no residue on this fingerprint film! We can only try to find some traces of fingerprints left by that person before!"
Hearing what the other person said, Lu Yuan was speechless.
This person is dead!
"Oh? Dead? That's terrible! By the way, was this notebook found in his office?"
"Yes! It was found in his office!"
"Take me there now, let me see if I can get his fingerprints!"
Lu Yuan nodded, and then saw Qiao Ke start rummaging through drawers and cabinets. Finally, he found a flashlight, then nodded at Lu Yuan: "The scene shouldn't have been disturbed yet, right?"
Upon hearing the other person's words, Lu Yuan was stunned: "It might...it might cause some damage!"
"Oh no! We can't destroy that! Let's get out now!"
Without a second thought, Lu Yuan led the other person out of the room.
At this moment, Zhou Tong was beginning to search the cabinet.
At this moment, Lu Yuan quickly shouted, "Old Zhou! Stop!"
Zhou Tong was startled when he heard Lu Yuan's voice, and he quickly stopped what he was doing and cautiously turned his head to look at Lu Yuan.
"You scared me to death! What happened?"
At this moment, Qiao Ke looked at the room's layout and said, "Old Zhou, Brother Lu, why don't you go out for a bit? By the way, do you remember what it was like when we arrived?"
Lu Yuan nodded: "I know!"
"Okay! Be careful! Don't touch anything! Also, keep everything inside the room!"
Lu Yuan and Zhou Tong exchanged a glance, then put their things on the ground and carefully left the room, afraid of touching anything.
