Chapter 67: No one, only gold (15) You who are socially anxious, character...
"I extracted four groups of eight samples and conducted 24 component tests in total. Many components in the crystal pump are wrapped with molecular-level nanomaterials, which cause great interference, but it is basically certain that the crystal pumps produced by Ritian Industrial Park contain a small amount of addictive substances, such as benzoylmethyl ergonoside."
The computer showed a colorful spreadsheet filled with a lot of professional terms. Gao Mengtang couldn't understand it: "Is the crystal pump false advertising?"
"Fraud," Gao Geng said, "You can also call it, secretly trafficking in drugs."
Qian Hao knew that Xu Wei was gay, but he still introduced his female student to him as his wife. I thought he was just a person with bad personal ethics, but I never thought he could do such a thing.
Gao Mengtang left a copy of the test report and prepared to leave with his brother.
Before closing the computer, Gao Geng suddenly remembered something: "Who is Bu Xiaoting?"
Xiaoting? Gao Mengtang frowned: "Qian Hao's student, Xu Wei's wife. What happened to her?"
"I hacked into Qian Hao's database and checked his research and development reports. The name Bu Xiaoting appeared many times in the reports," Gao Geng replied.
Gao Mengtang frowned even more tightly: "Bu Xiaoting also participated in the development of the crystal pump. Is she also suspected of...drug trafficking?"
"No, she's very ethical. She's working on how to minimize the harmful effects of the crystal pump."
The human's right hand gently touched Gao Mengtang's brow, and smoothed his frown along the brow bone: "I have read a few of her papers. She has strong scientific research ability."
Gao Mengtang looked at the screen curiously. As he was talking, Gao Geng's notebook automatically locked the screen. The password was his brother's birthday. Gao Mengtang opened the notebook with ease and flipped through it.
"Are you interested in her?"
"That's right." Xiao Ting must be closely related to the main plot of the dungeon, Gao Mengtang thought, and he answered casually: "Well, I want to know more about her."
Gao Mengtang found a paper written by Xiaoting and tried to understand it. After thinking for a minute, he still didn't understand even the title.
His brother’s big hand covered Gao Mengtang’s hand holding the mouse, moved it to the upper right corner of the screen, and clicked the red cross.
"There's nothing to see." Gao Geng said.
"What are you doing? I want to read it," Gao Mengtang opened the paper again.
Gao Geng: "You don't read the paper I wrote, but you read hers."
Gao Mengtang: “…”
Can this be the same?
Gao Mengtang: "Didn't you say that her scientific research level is very high?"
"I never said that," Gao Geng lost his memory on the spot, but his expression remained unchanged, "She can only achieve 70% of my level."
Gao Mengtang was speechless again.
After reading it for 5 minutes with full concentration, he didn't even understand a single punctuation mark. Gao Mengtang flipped through the pages again and found a photo of Bu Xiaoting.
It was a portrait of a deceased woman. She looked to be in her 40s or 50s, with short hair, a slender neck, and a white coat. The black and white picture filtered out the glittering light in her eyes, and the monotonous colors conveyed a faint chill.
The lower left corner indicates Bu Xiaoting's birth and death years: 299-352
The zombie virus broke out in 362, and by then, Bu Xiaoting had been gone for 10 years.
A vague sense of weirdness flashed through Gao Mengtang's mind. He stared at her photo for a long time and then gently closed the notebook.
After the laptop screen went dark, the last light in the laboratory went out and the laboratory fell into complete darkness.
*
When I woke up the next day, the sky was dim and I would have thought I had slept until the afternoon. I looked at the time and it was only seven in the morning.
The sky above the park was covered with a layer of yellow sand. When the sun rose, the ground was as dark as dusk.
An ominous aura enveloped everyone. As time passed, the dungeon would become more and more dangerous. Gao Mengtang didn't feel anything. He was highly resistant to mental pollution. The yellow sand filled the sky and he was blind. The impact was equivalent to nothing.
Duan Song complained that after a nap, his energy value decreased by 100 points and he had to drink a recovery potion again.
The night and the day are connected together. In the gloomy weather, the upper bodies of people walking in the park are covered by yellow sand, and only two legs moving mechanically can be seen.
As I was about to go to the cafeteria for breakfast, I passed by the South Gate and suddenly heard someone shouting, "Living Bodhisattva! Living Bodhisattva is coming!"
Gao Mengtang looked towards the direction where the voice came from. He could tell that it was Lao Li, the migrant worker he had let go.
System: "Good deeds will bring good results. Your help has brought rewards from the NPC."
"Old Li, are you okay?" Gao Mengtang walked over and asked.
It was just an ordinary greeting, but Lao Li's eyes were filled with tears.
The Living Bodhisattva remembered him and knew he was Lao Li just by hearing him say one sentence.
He worked from dawn to dusk on the construction site. After two or three months, the supervisors could not remember his last name and started calling him "Hey".
The godlike figure in front of him not only called him "Lao Li" affectionately, but also asked him "Are you okay?"
Old Li wiped his eyes with the back of his hand, his throat choked. He dug out something from his worn-out backpack and handed it over with both hands: "I'm fine. I'm fine. The Bodhisattva saved my life, but I'm so poor that I can't repay you. I just found this little thing, I don't ask for it to help the Bodhisattva, I just ask the Bodhisattva to know my sincerity."
Gao Mengtang took it and touched it. It was a piece of paper.
"A printed photo," Duan Song said, "male, estimated to be between 45 and 50 years old. Height between 175cm and 178cm."
After looking at him for a while, Duan Song added: "He looks ferocious and murderous. He is not a good person."
"Whose photo is this?" Gao Mengtang asked.
Lao Li: "The day you saved me, you mentioned that you wanted to find out who the real estate boss was who hired the man in black. He is the real estate boss."
After that, Lao Li looked around and saw no one around. He lowered his voice and said, "I asked around and found out that he is not a conscientious boss, but the big brother of a gang."
"I asked around" is easy to say. Lao Li is a down-to-earth worker who was owed wages and slapped. He mustered up the courage to take the initiative to contact the black gang he feared the most. The sweat and tears behind it are hard to estimate.
Gao Mengtang couldn't help but be moved. He stroked the photo. Lao Li also laminated the photo.
The photo was clear and the colors were real. It should have been developed using the most expensive technology in the photo studio. On the back of the photo, Lao Li wrote three crooked words, which were the name of the gang leader.
"Thank you, you helped me a lot." Gao Mengtang fumbled and put the laminated A4 paper into his folder. "Thank you for your hard work. Thank you again."
Gao Mengtang stretched out a hand and wanted to shake hands with Lao Li.
How could Old Li dare to shake the hand of the living Buddha? He kept backing away, but Gao Mengtang grabbed him and held his hand tightly for a while.
There was a long silence. Under the dark sky, the two sides stood like two motionless black shadows.
A tear mixed with dust fell from Old Li's eyes and dripped onto the back of Gao Mengtang's hand.
After seeing Lao Li off, Gao Mengtang and Duan Song continued walking towards the cafeteria, thinking about Lao Li and the photo.
A gang leader disguised as a courageous entrepreneur organized a group of his men, disguised as agents, and sneaked into the Ritian Industrial Park?
They do this in order to...
The zombie virus broke out, and the park was in a mess. There was no profit to be made, no friends to be made, and if you were not careful, you could easily get into trouble.
There is only one possible reason why the men in black came here at all: to conceal their tracks and destroy evidence.
They are most likely related to the poisoning case.
While he was thinking, he had already arrived at the cafeteria. His teammates had already arrived. The charlatan chased after Shi Zhengyi and asked, "The one who got stabbed in the ass! I'm calling you, don't play deaf. There's no sun today, and you don't have a godfather yet. What's your life going to do? It's pitch dark, right?"
There was a cheerful atmosphere inside and outside the cafeteria.
In a corner, completely isolated from the booing and laughing around, Researcher 4399 was eating breakfast alone, with a bowl of mushroom soup, a bowl of brown rice, and a cup of hot soy milk in front of him.
4399 stared at the watery soup for half a minute, then, as if he had made up his mind, he picked up the spoon and took a sip.
"Good morning." A man suddenly appeared in front of her and put down his plate. It was also a green vegetarian dish.
Gao Mengtang sat opposite her with a smile on his face.
4399 paused, picked up the plate, and stood up to leave.
Four hands pressed down on her shoulders. The pastor and Lucky sat beside her, one on each side. They said kindly, "Don't hide from us. We have no ill intentions. We just want to ask you a few small questions."
The lucky guy pinched his index finger and thumb together to create a very small gap.
Researcher 4399 glanced at the two players, as if evaluating something, and then glanced at Gao Mengtang opposite him.
He has a handsome face and a graceful demeanor. He is a little thinner and his eyes can't focus. He is blind. Although he looks good, his fighting ability is not as good as the two girls next to him.
After a moment of silence, researcher 4399 hunched his shoulders, hunched his back, and whispered, "What do you want to ask?"
Gao Mengtang thought that she was socially anxious and didn't want to talk to people, so he skipped the small talk and got straight to the point. He asked straight to the point, "Do you know Q?"
"Q?"
"Yeah." Gao Mengtang smiled and nodded.
Researcher 4399 looked confused: "Q? How can there be someone named Q, Ah Q?"
This kind of reaction must mean that you really don't know him.
"Where is Xiaoting?" Gao Mengtang asked again.
"Who are you talking about?" Researcher 4399 lowered his head quickly.
Gao Mengtang was born with absolute pitch and was very sensitive to timbre and tone. He could tell that the researcher 4399 spoke very unnaturally.
"Bu Xiaoting. Xu Wei's lover. Passed away ten years ago." Gao Mengtang took out Bu Xiaoting's posthumous photo from the file bag.
Somehow, 4399 relaxed. She glanced at the photo, fiddled with the mushroom soup, and said with her head down, "I don't know him. I was still in junior high school 10 years ago."
If you calculate the age, there is a difference of more than 30 years between Bu Xiaoting and her. It is normal that they don’t know each other.
However, the permission card of researcher 4399 can activate the subway. Her identity must be very special. What is so special about her?
Gao Mengtang put the photo back into the file bag and felt a sharp piece of paper with his fingertips. It was the photo that Lao Li had given him.
After thinking for a moment, Gao Mengtang took out the photo of the black gang leader again.
"Do you know this person?"
4399 looked at them for two seconds, took a sip of soup, and then a bite of rice. He looked at the three people and stammered, "I, I don't know them."
The voice was trembling and he looked very scared.
"It's okay, don't be nervous." Gao Mengtang comforted her, "I'm sorry to bother you."
When the three of them stood up, 4399 said softly, "Please wait a moment."
"What's wrong?" Gao Mengtang turned around.
"I, I found something...something very scary in the park." Researcher 4399 looked around in panic. "I don't know who to tell."
Gao Mengtang said softly: "Don't worry, you can tell me."
"There are too many people here. I'm scared." Researcher 4399 wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into. "Can you come with me?"
Researcher 4399 took the three people out of the cafeteria and walked farther and farther away. Along the way, 4399 kept looking around, holding the soy milk cup in both hands, as if trying to absorb the pitiful warmth from the hot soy milk cup, and his small body shrank like a dumpling.
They stopped in an abandoned alley.
"Can I, can I take another look at that photo?" 4399 asked timidly.
The photo was handed over. 4399 took it in both hands, lowered his eyes and looked at it for a moment, then -
With a swish sound, the photo was torn into pieces and the hot soy milk splashed all over Gao Mengtang's face.
The incident happened suddenly. Lucky and the pastor rushed over to hold her down. Unexpectedly, Researcher 4399 moved like a rabbit. In a flash, he knocked Lucky unconscious with a straight punch, turned around, and kicked the pastor three meters away with a roundhouse kick.
The Lucky Man and the Priest's ID card had no combat bonus and no combat expertise. Their fighting power was about the same as that of an ordinary girl, and they were beaten by 4399's punches and kicks, and they couldn't stand up for a long time.
Gao Mengtang heard something was wrong, took out some eye-protecting blueberries and was about to eat them, but his wrist bone was pinched. 4399's strength was frightening.
The eye-protecting blueberry fell to the ground with a plop, and was stepped on by 4399 into a puddle of mud.
"I saw that scene this morning. The construction workers called you a living Buddha, and your followers called you the leader. What is your identity outside? Are you the leader of a cult who relies on your looks to defraud people?"
Gao Mengtang: "It's not a cult..."
"No? Then they would treat you like a living Buddha." 4399 believed that Gao Mengtang was a leader of a cult, and showed no mercy.
His wrist was dislocated and drooped limply, causing cold sweat to seep from Gao Mengtang's forehead. He still smiled as gently as possible: "I have no hostility--"
Before he could finish his sentence, Researcher 4399 raised his hand and dislocated Gao Mengtang's other shoulder joint.
Gao Mengtang fell down against the wall, his arms aching so much that he was unable to support himself and stand up.
"Don't you have one who can fight among your followers?" 4399 picked up the torn photo, lit it with a lighter, burned it to ashes, and kicked it apart. "Why do you have two girls following you? Do you look down on me?"
...Who would have thought that you, who suffers from social anxiety, have perfect fighting skills.
She pinched Gao Mengtang's cheek with one hand, lifted his face up, and said in a dangerous and low voice: "Tell me, Your Excellency. What did your fanatical followers do to my father? If you don't tell me, I will kill you now!"
Gao Mengtang: "...your father?"
The big brother of the Black She Society in the photo is the researcher's father?
