Chapter 72 Inquiry.
From the beginning, he used the honorific title of "Mr. Director", but from the beginning, he had no intention of letting him go. For
the first time, the director of the Gene Research Institute smelled the scent of death. He had never been so close to death.
Looking at the man standing in front of him and looking down at him, the other party was so young, but so powerful. At this moment, he really realized that Grace was not an ordinary person.
How could an ordinary officer freely enter and exit the underground cell of the Dark City? But it was too late, because he knew very well that from the moment he came in, Grace had no intention of letting him leave alive, and it was impossible for him to leave alive.
And the reason for all this seemed to be because he made Duke Lu Xia unhappy.
What a ridiculous reason, but it was so real.
He regretted it, he really regretted it, but it was all too late...
Grace returned to normal, wiped the blood off his hands, and said to the person stationed at the door: "Clean it up."
The blood-stained tissue was thrown on the ground casually, and Grace walked towards the room on the other side with his long legs.
If you look closely, you can easily see that this seemingly endless corridor has independent cells on both sides.
Dark City has always been a place to imprison the most vicious and evil, and of course it is sometimes used for other purposes.
The only thing that remains unchanged is that no one who enters this place can leave, whether alive or dead.
The iron door next to it was opened by the servant, and Grace stood at the door, watching the man who suddenly got up from the bed because of the sound, but was restricted in his movements by the iron chain tied to his wrists.
The other party's thin cheeks had already changed, and when he saw the person coming, his eyes were still full of excitement and fear: "Grace, I was wrong, please let me go, okay? I promise that I won't say anything after I get out, and I won't stay in the Imperial Star. I will never bother you. Let me go, okay?"
"You know, not long ago, she mentioned you, Colonel Kefei. I didn't expect that she still remembered you, and praised you for your good character, keeping your promise, and leaving the military area after losing the duel with me." Grace seemed to come here to share this matter with him on purpose.
What he said made Kefei panic. If he hadn't provoked her and was coincidentally seen by the female master that Grace cared about, how could he have ended up like this?
Grace was not only a colonel in the First Military District, but also the city lord who controlled the power of Dark City. No one knew how he could do all this as a "defective product".
If he hadn't experienced it himself, he wouldn't have believed it.
But it was all true. Since he appeared here, Grace had never concealed her identity from him.
Similarly, it made him very clear that Grace had no intention of letting him go.
So it mattered whether he covered it up or not.
"I didn't refuse to fulfill my promise at the beginning. I just wanted to wait a while. I didn't..."
"Shh!" Grace made a gesture for silence again. "I came here today to share a good news with you, Colonel Kofei. I am now a gene fusionist. Admiral Snoop has submitted my information for promotion to major general to the higher-ups."
Kofei's pupils suddenly shrank when he heard this: "How is it possible? No defective male has ever been able to become a gene fusionist. Are you lying to me?"
"How could that be? There is no benefit in lying to you. Do you want to see it?" Grace seemed to be sharing it kindly.
Kofei stared at him and remained silent, as if he could resist Grace's madness in this way.
"But you don't deserve it!" Grace obviously didn't want to show Kofei her beastly appearance. She sneered and said, "I'm going back. She's still waiting for me. Take care, Colonel Kofei."
Grace turned around and said to the servant who closed the door: "Keep an eye on him, don't let him die."
Ke Fei looked shocked and unwilling to believe, and suddenly yelled madly at the door: "You lied to me, right? How could you be a gene fusionist? You are a defective product. How could you be a gene fusionist? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Unfortunately, Grace could not hear his crazy speech. He had walked out of the dark city cell and stood in the sun. He
lowered his eyes and looked at his black-gloved hands. His black eyes were a little lonely. If Lu Xia knew that he was not a good person and was a vindictive person, would she still protect him like this?
So, she still couldn't let her know.
After lighting a cigarette, as if to calm down, Grace smoked it until the smell dissipated and confirmed that there was no smell on her body, she returned to the hovercraft and left here.
At this time, the news of the disappearance of the director of the Genetic Research Institute had spread.
And it was widely circulated on the Internet -
"The director of the Genetic Research Institute is missing, I don't find it that surprising!"
"To be honest, the Genetic Research Institute has conducted so many experiments and research, there must be some non-compliant and illegal ones that cause trouble. Just because there has been no trouble doesn't mean there will never be trouble!"
"Ha, is it possible that the director of the Genetic Research Institute was caught for experiments? After all, he seems to be quite valuable for research!"
...
Most of the comments on the Internet about the disappearance of the director of the Genetic Research Institute are sarcastic in this way, and there are few comments that worry about him. It can really be seen what status the Genetic Research Institute has in the hearts of the people over the years.
Lu Xia naturally heard about the big news that the director of the Genetic Research Institute was missing, but she just listened to it and didn't take it too seriously.
However, she received an inquiry message from the police station.
"So, do you think I have something to do with the disappearance of the director of the Genetic Research Institute?"
"Please don't be angry, Duke Lu Xia. We are just asking for a routine question. After all, before this, the director of the Genetic Research Institute has always wanted your husband Grace to participate in the research, and as far as we know, this has happened more than once."
"So you think I have a motive, but why should I arrest him?" Lu Xia felt that this groundless suspicion was really ridiculous.
"We have no other intentions. It's really just a routine matter. In fact, we have confirmed your movements and found nothing suspicious. We can basically rule out your connection with this matter. Thank you for your cooperation."
"You're welcome." After Lu Xia ended the call with the other party, he raised his eyebrows and then put the matter behind him.
Because the Fire Spirit Research Laboratory has good news, they have successfully purified the Fire Spirit gene.
The next step will be to conduct experiments on the experimental subjects. If all goes well, the experimental subjects may produce fire-related abilities.
If the experiment is successful, it also means that it can be applied to the gene fusion, allowing them to have special abilities in the beast form and increase their attack power.
