"Now, Xiaoqi, turn off all electronic devices for me."
"good!"
All the lights in the laboratory building were turned off, and Xiang Wan swam to the surface of the water and began to sing.
There is a sound, said to be the most beautiful in the world; once heard, it can never be forgotten. Surrounded by this sound, one feels as if in a fairyland, dreamlike and enchanting, wishing to remain there forever and never wake up.
The mermaid's song is the most beautiful sound in the world, and Xiang Wan's guess was correct. In addition to high-frequency screams, she can also emit the most beautiful singing voice, which travels upwards through the gaps.
Everyone on the 20th basement level was stunned, forgetting what they were doing. Those on the 19th basement level were momentarily dazed before regaining their senses. Those on the 18th basement level could only faintly hear someone singing.
Guan Zhengming's face instantly turned ashen. He clearly understood that the sound wasn't coming from a human. Now, no one, not even a ghost, would believe there was nothing down there!
Fang Zheng listened intently, his expression focused, and did not change his posture even when the lights came on.
"Professor Fang, there's a problem with the power supply in this lab building. Let's hurry up. If the power goes out again, we'll all be stuck here."
Did you hear that just now?
"What did you hear?"
"singing."
"No, I didn't hear anything."
Guan Zhengming had already recovered and his only thought was to take Fang Zheng up there as soon as possible.
"Take me there and find the source of the sound."
"Professor Fang, there really was no sound..."
Fang Zheng stared intently at Guan Zhengming, his unwavering gaze making the latter unable to meet his eyes.
"Your boss called me here, and we both know exactly what his purpose is."
The top eighteen floors, all the laboratories, may seem ordinary at first glance, but there's more to them than meets the eye, isn't there?
I know that if I expose the deepest secrets, I might never be able to leave this place again. Rather than forcibly keeping me here, it's better to let me stay willingly, don't you think?
Fang Zheng's half-joking, half-threatening remarks made Guan Zhengming somewhat unsure of what to do.
"Finding the source of the sound might bring another surprise to your lab. Your reaction just now was unlike anything we've heard before."
Guan Zhengming was sweating profusely. He knew that Fang Zheng had been personally invited by Han Shiren, so he must value him highly. If he dealt with him now, his boss might blame him. If Fang Zheng saw something he shouldn't have, and didn't want to stay, he could always execute him later.
Having made up his mind, Guan Zhengming looked up at Fang Zheng and said, "Since we've come to this point, Professor Fang is a sensible person. Please cooperate with us and don't put us in a difficult position."
Fang Zheng glanced around and saw someone walking towards him, then slowly nodded.
This lab is definitely not clean!
"Tsk tsk, no wonder you're the man you've set your sights on. Hearing your voice, they're willing to risk their lives just to see you. This system is just wondering, what's so great about you that everyone's willing to risk their lives for you?"
Xiang Wan ignored the system's teasing.
Sometimes, she would ask herself the same question: what was so special about her that someone would be willing to do anything for her? But she had never even met Fang Zheng, so she preferred to believe that he was just satisfying his own curiosity.
The fish has taken the bait; all Xiang Wan needs to do is wait for him to come and show him her most amazing side.
Time passed by, but the door that was usually used by doctors in white coats remained silent.
"Xiao Qi, why isn't he coming in?"
"Oh, he's standing right at the door. Do you want to yell again?"
Hmm, that's a good idea!
Xiang Wan screamed, the water boiled, and all the electrical equipment shattered and fell one after another, with a continuous crackling sound.
"Stop calling, they're already gone."
The system roared in Xiang Wan's mind, and she stopped what she was doing.
"What? He's not going to come in and take a look?"
"Your shout has disabled all the electrical equipment, and we can't even open the door. How are we supposed to get in?"
Xiang Wan instantly wanted to bang her head against the wall. How could she forget that screaming would damage electrical equipment, and the electrically controlled door would definitely break too.
Her fists clenched so tightly they cracked. Who gave her that terrible idea to yell like that?
"This system was only trying to help you, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful. Is it my fault?"
"If it's not your fault, is it mine? Don't give me any more bad advice. Fang Zheng is gone. When will we see him again? Sigh!"
"Why!"
The system also sighed in Xiang Wan's tone, one sigh after another, one person and one system, no one could be more miserable than them.
"Stop sighing, hurry up and see where Fang Zheng went."
"Don't worry, I'll be right there."
Fang Zheng stood at the door, instinctively feeling that there must be something inside that would interest him. He took a deep breath and was about to raise his hand to open the door when a sharp sound rang in his ears, and one by one, all the surrounding equipment shattered.
While he was still in a daze, Guan Zhengming had already called security guards, who surrounded him and prepared to forcibly take him onto the elevator.
Having found the source of the sound, whatever it was, it was what he wanted most. Fang Zheng stopped them and stepped into the elevator.
Han Shiren was already waiting in the office, holding a contract in his hand, with a fully armed man standing next to him.
"Brother Fang, we're from the same school, and I didn't expect things to come to this so quickly. Now that you've seen it, please sign it."
Fang Zheng pulled out a chair, sat down opposite him, picked up the contract and looked at it carefully, then said, "I cannot sign this contract."
