The string in Mou Xuan's heart was stretched tight, like a fully drawn bow that could break at any time.
The technology research and development laboratory is the lifeblood of the Doomsday Alliance!
If anything goes wrong, the consequences will be disastrous.
He ran wildly, his heart beating like a drum in his chest and his breathing became rapid.
"Hu...Hu..." He held onto the door frame, breathing heavily, with beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.
The door of the R&D room was closed and it was quiet inside, like a dormant beast hiding in the darkness, waiting for its prey to arrive.
"Open the door!" Mou Xuan growled, with a hint of anxiety in his voice that was hard to conceal.
The guard immediately opened the door, and Mou Xuan walked in quickly, scanning every corner of the R&D room with his sharp eyes.
There was a faint metallic smell in the air, mixed with a barely perceptible burnt smell, which deepened his suspicion.
"Investigator Sun! Come here immediately!" Mou Xuan's voice echoed in the empty R&D room with unquestionable majesty.
Investigator Sun came over at a trot, and when he saw Mou Xuan's serious expression, his heart skipped a beat, knowing that something was wrong.
"Brother Mu, what's the hurry?"
"The scientific and technological achievements may have been stolen!" Mou Xuan said in a heavy tone, word by word, "Start an investigation immediately and don't let go of any clues!"
When Investigator Sun heard this, he took a deep breath. This was no joke!
The theft of scientific and technological achievements would be a fatal blow to the alliance.
He did not dare to delay and immediately gathered people to start a carpet search of the R&D room.
At the same time, Mou Xuan came to the office of technical cracker Zhao. Technical cracker Zhao was facing the computer screen with a frown on his face. His fingers were typing quickly on the keyboard. The dense codes on the screen were dazzling.
"Old Zhao, what's the situation?" Mou Xuan asked.
Technician Zhao looked up with a serious expression, "Brother Mu, this encryption method... I have never seen it before. The complexity is beyond imagination! This is definitely not something our alliance's technical level can achieve."
Mou Xuan's heart sank. This further confirmed his guess that the scientific and technological achievements were indeed stolen, and the other party was most likely an organization or individual with very strong technical capabilities.
"It must be cracked as soon as possible!" Mou Xuan said firmly, "The future of the alliance depends on you!"
Technician Zhao took a deep breath, his eyes full of fighting spirit, "Brother Mu, don't worry, I will try my best to crack this thing!"
In the R&D room, Investigator Sun led the investigation team, carefully checking every corner, not missing any details.
They went through all the experimental records, retrieved surveillance videos, and even checked the trash cans.
"Brother Mu, look at this!" An investigator came over with a torn piece of paper, on which some complicated formulas and symbols could be vaguely seen.
Mou Xuan took the piece of paper and looked at it carefully. These formulas and symbols seemed familiar to him, as if he had seen them somewhere... Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he remembered a research report that Chen Yao had shown him, which also had similar formulas and symbols!
"Chen Yao!" Mou Xuan immediately called Chen Yao, "Come over right away, there's something important!"
Chen Yao quickly rushed to the R&D room, and seeing the tense atmosphere on the scene, she realized the seriousness of the matter.
"What happened?"
Mou Xuan briefly told Chen Yao what had happened and handed her the piece of paper.
Chen Yao took the piece of paper, looked at it carefully, and her brows gradually furrowed.
"This... This seems to be part of some new encryption algorithm. I've come across something similar when I was doing research before."
"Are you sure?" Mou Xuan asked.
"It's basically certain." Chen Yao nodded, "This algorithm is very complicated. Currently, only a few top scientific research institutions have mastered it, and..." She paused, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes, "I remember this algorithm... It seems to be still in the research and development stage and has not been officially put into use..."
Mou Xuan's heart sank suddenly. This meant that the person who stole the scientific and technological achievements was most likely lurking within the alliance!
With the assistance of Shen Yao, Mou Xuan and Investigator Sun checked the recent entry and exit of personnel in the R&D room and initially identified several suspicious persons, including the traitor Liu who usually looked honest.
"Traitor Liu... This guy looks quite honest, but I didn't expect..." Investigator Sun's tone was full of disbelief.
Mou Xuan looked at the names on the list with cold eyes, like a sharp knife that could pierce through people's hearts.
"You can't judge a person by his appearance..." He took a deep breath, with a hint of chill in his tone, "Keep investigating! We must find this traitor!"
As night falls, the lights in the R&D room are still bright. Mou Xuan stands in front of the window, looking at the flashing neon lights in the distance, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.
Technology was stolen and there was a mole lurking inside. All of this was like a fog that shrouded his heart and made him feel a little uneasy.
"Knock, knock, knock..." A knock on the door interrupted his thoughts.
"Come in."
Chen Yao pushed the door open and walked in, holding a cup of steaming coffee in her hand. "Still busy?"
Mou Xuan took the coffee and took a sip. The bitter taste spread on the tip of his tongue, just like his mood at the moment.
“No clue yet…”
Chen Yao walked up to him and patted his shoulder gently, "Don't worry, we will definitely find the truth."
Mou Xuan looked at Chen Yao's gentle eyes, and a warm current surged in his heart. He held her hand and said firmly: "Yes, I can do it!"
