Chapter 162: Hawthorn wants to die together?

Unexpectedly, after the two leading police officers ordered their men to search each laboratory one by one, they took the elevator and went straight to the laboratory where Zhang Shengnan was.

"Officer! Professor Zhang is our SZ's top professor. Her experiments involve our corporate secrets—"

After Chen Mengxue pretended to block for a few times, the male police officer slammed the search warrant in her face. He warned Chen Mengxue, "Get out of the way! Don't interfere with our work."

The female police officer at the side pushed Chen Mengxue aside and rushed in directly, holding a baton in her hand.

When I pushed the door open and walked in, I found that Zhang Shengnan was the only one in the huge laboratory. She was wearing a white lab coat, gloves on her hands, and goggles on her face. She looked serious, and it was not difficult to tell that she was indeed doing an important experiment.

Seeing someone coming, she gave them an unpleasant look, shaking a test tube in her hand.

"Who allowed you in? Get out, or I'll call security!"

Zhang Shengnan's voice was extremely cold, as if she couldn't see the uniforms they were wearing.

But soon, Shen Linglan, who appeared behind the police officer, successfully shut Zhang Shengnan up.

The boss had "surrendered", so Zhang Shengnan could only put the test tube in her hand on the table. At the signal of the police officer, she took off her mask and goggles, and a wrinkled but clean face appeared in front of the police.

"Cooperate with us, or you will suffer the consequences!"

One of the policemen stepped forward and put all the items related to the experiment on the table into the evidence box they brought.

The female police officer noticed a sealed book next to Zhang Shengnan. She picked it up and asked Zhang Shengnan, "What is this?"

"This……"

Zhang Shengnan hesitated to speak, but the policeman glanced at her and she immediately said, "This is the report of today's experiment."

The police took the report in as well and spent quite a while cleaning up. Half an hour later, the house was empty except for a large machine that could not be moved.

The leading male police officer then turned to look at Zhang Shengnan and asked sharply, "I heard that you are a very famous professor at B University. Why did you come to SZ Laboratory as the person in charge?"

“Because of the money.”

Zhang Shengnan said, "One of my students died because of me. His family only had one child and was in financial difficulty, so I wanted to take on more work and earn more money to help his family improve their lives and allow his parents to receive proper medical treatment."

The female police officer at the scene also handled the case at the time, and she also had an impression of the student's family situation. The family had supported the college student for more than 20 years and finally got out of the mountains, but he was gone in an instant. Even a normal family would find it hard to accept, let alone a rural family.

She was moved, and her tone softened. "We have collected the key items, and we need to take them back to the police station for inspection. We would also like to trouble you to come back with us to the police station for questioning."

Zhang Shengnan did not resist and followed Shen Linglan to the police station.

The person who went to the police station yesterday was Shen Zhaoshan, and today it was Shen Linglan.

When Shen Zhaoshan received the news, his face was so smiling that he told his secretary, "Give money to the police and ask them to take good care of Shen Linglan."

He thought Shen Linglan would be locked up in the interrogation room like him, without even a sip of water for hours.

But when Shen Linglan was invited over, the people in the police station were very polite. They handed Shen Linglan a glass of warm water and let her sit on a soft sofa.

Lu Shaohua called her after she arrived at the police station and asked, "Did they give you any trouble?"

"No," Shen Linglan glanced at Zhang Shengnan through the glass window, "They are interrogating Professor Zhang now."

Lu Shaohua was busy with this matter all night and was sweating profusely in the middle of winter.

"I asked Ye You to talk to the police. They won't dare to embarrass you. As long as you cooperate, they will let you go soon."

Shen Linglan thought for a while and remembered that Ye You was the head of the Non-Natural Events Research and Investigation Bureau and Lu Shaohua's boss.

"Okay, thanks."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Linglan found herself outside the interrogation room. Immediately, a new policeman knocked on the door of the interrogation room and drove the policeman inside out.

The police officer who was escorted out refused to leave and whispered to the other police officer, "The higher-ups have said we need to conduct a thorough investigation."

He emphasized the word "good", meaning that he wanted to make things difficult for the people inside.

But the new policeman was obviously one level higher than him, and glared at him unceremoniously, "Whose superior are you? The sheriff wants you to do your job impartially. You are not allowed to take money to embarrass good people!"

When the young policeman heard that his taking of money was known, his face turned pale with fright.

But no one had the energy to settle this with him at the moment, and the new police officer took over the interrogation room.

Shen Linglan looked in from outside and it was obvious that Zhang Shengnan, who was sitting inside, looked much more relaxed.

It seems that the second policeman was the one Ye You called.

Shen Linglan couldn't help but sigh. Fortunately, she donated a lot of money to the non-self-bureau. Whether it was for the sake of the 10 million or the "madman" that she and Lu Shaohua wanted to find together, it was worth their effort to save Shen Linglan.

The Fei Zi Bureau was afraid of losing Shen Linglan, its financial backer, and Lu Shaohua was even more afraid that after losing Shen Linglan, the plan to catch the "crazy genius" would fail directly.

However...

After Shen Linglan hung up the phone, she turned off the phone screen.

She looked at the box of documents in the police station. A group of police officers gathered in front of the documents and read through them carefully. They even invited professionals to review the reports with them.

They looked solemn and serious, while Shen Linglan looked relaxed.

In fact, the owner of this "game" has become Shen Linglan. Shen Linglan does not need anyone outside the game to protect her, and she and Zhang Shengnan can get away with it safely.

Zhang Shengnan was released after being interrogated. When it was Shen Linglan's turn, the person who was checking the laboratory report suddenly stopped them.

"Wait, where is the product developed from this report?"

A police officer held up a report, which was the research Zhang Shengnan was doing before coming to the police station.

Shen Linglan stood up and answered, "It is the most popular skin care product of Hawthorn."

"hawthorn?"

One of the policemen read the two words in confusion. The policeman next to him took out his mobile phone from his pocket, looked through the trending searches, and then showed it to Shen Linglan and asked, "Is it this hawthorn?"

Shen Linglan glanced at the hot search terms, which read:

#Hawthorn cosmetics contain banned ingredients#

#The president of Shanzha and the boss of SZ Biotech are suspected to be father and daughter#

These two terms not only became popular, but also ranked first and second on the hot search list.

Shen Linglan nodded, "Yes, both of them."

This trending search clearly shows that Shanzha wants to tie SZ Shengke up and die together. Her few casual words stopped the police who were ready to read the gossip.

They looked at each other in bewilderment. "So is your company really connected to Shanzha?"
