But the idea was wonderful. Not only did Lin Ruo not have this toxin, but even if she did, she wouldn't be able to analyze it. It's better to leave professional matters to professionals.
Considering that these people were so close to the B City base, and that the B City base hadn't discovered them for so long, she couldn't help but suspect whether the B City base was involved.
Of course, she still needed to verify this herself. Her eyes darkened slightly. It seemed necessary to infiltrate the B City base. She gripped the terminal in her hand. This time, she was determined to inspect the B City base, even its deep underground areas.
If these things are really related to the B City base, then there must be some clues at the base. From another perspective, if she can rule out the B City base as a suspect, then she won't have to doubt anything she gets from them about the experiments.
Lin Ruo turned to look at the snowy night outside the window and decided to make a trip that night.
It was only just getting dark; it wasn't completely dark yet. The best time to act would be late at night.
She teleported back to the first floor, where all the animals in the house had gathered in the living room. The lights in the living room were turned on, and the warm light shone into the room, making the whole house feel more cozy.
Seeing Lin Ruo come down from the second floor, A Liu stretched out her willow branches to her, asking if she was alright. They had been with their master for so long and had never seen her so anxious. Even when they had received various prescriptions before, she had never been this eager.
Lin Ruo shook her head at A Liu, "It's nothing, I just learned some news. I have to go out again tonight, so you don't need to wait for me, go to sleep early."
A-Liu's willow branch turned towards A-Fu's direction, and A-Fu also glanced at the location of the willow branch. They didn't know what had happened to their master, but they felt that their master's condition had been somewhat off since returning in the afternoon, with some anger hidden beneath a calm demeanor.
But if the owner wants to solve the problem himself, they will naturally obey; they just need to stay by their owner's side at all times.
Lin Ruo prepared dinner for them and took out ingredients from her space to make herself a budae jjigae (army stew). The hot pot bubbled and simmered under the heat of the alcohol flames. Lin Ruo ate with relish, and the food helped her temporarily forget what had happened before.
She's not one to let things fester. Today, her carelessness led to the near-complete loss of clues, which initially made her somewhat resentful. But what's done is done, and she's not a saint who can foresee everything. Carelessness is normal; she'll learn from her mistakes next time.
As for the person she was unwilling to accept, she ate the rice cake she was holding with her chopsticks in one bite. No rush, she would catch him eventually.
"Clap clap clap..."
The dungeon at the B City base covers an area of several thousand square meters, and all the cells are now full, overflowing with people captured from the western mountain peak.
Even in the interrogation room, it was non-stop. Usually, as soon as one person was dragged away, the next person would be pulled over and tied up, the transition was perfect.
Chen Yu waited outside the interrogation room for five hours. These people were mostly from the hunting team, who usually had access to the base's laboratory and knew more about the place.
"Still won't talk?! Looks like the beating wasn't hard enough."
The interrogation rooms were filled with howls and screams. Anyone who was easily frightened would be scared half to death if they passed by. The people being interrogated were not tough. They knew that the B City base did not intend to kill them, but only wanted to get information from them. After that, there might be corresponding punishments. After the punishments, they might be able to rejoin the B City base as superhumans. So they confessed not long after.
"No! No! I really don't know! Please, please spare me! I was just carrying out a mission, I really don't know anything else."
"Contacting the higher-ups has always been the responsibility of the base chief and deputy base chief. We just follow their orders to capture people with superpowers in various places."
"Although I am the captain of the base chief's guard, I only know that there are people supporting the base behind the scenes. When we try to contact them, the base chief always sends us away. Even when he goes out to make contacts, he won't let us come along. So we don't know who they are."
"Oh, right, there's one more thing. The escort team sent by the higher-ups to transport the supplies has gone missing and failed to deliver the supplies on time. The base commander was furious about this and issued an order that they must find the person alive or dead. But this reconnaissance mission was not our responsibility."
When Chen Yu heard the news, his eyes flickered slightly. Given the current environment, if these people were missing, they were most likely dead. The question was, who killed them?
However, we cannot rule out the possibility that they really wanted to embezzle the supplies. If these people are still alive, perhaps this could be a breakthrough.
"How much do you know about this escort team?"
The captain of the guard thought carefully for a long time, "Every time they came, they wore masks on their faces and wore the same black combat uniforms as us. They didn't communicate with us and didn't have any obvious characteristics."
Chen Yu frowned. There were no obvious features. How was he supposed to find it? It was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
The security team captain pondered for a long time, then his eyes lit up as he looked at Chen Yu. “By the way, our security team’s ability users had a conflict with them before because they didn’t know their identities. I was standing at the front when someone tore their combat uniform. I saw a special totem on their shoulder, but I’m not sure if it was a tattoo they got before the apocalypse.”
