ACCIDENT
As the knock on the door sounded, Mu Qingyan cut off communication with Kins.
If nothing unexpected happens, that place will be enough to handle it.
Even if something really happened in the end, with her and Dustin here, she wouldn't mind completely tearing the place apart if necessary.
——As expected, her anger level showed no sign of decreasing, but instead intensified...
Especially after thinking about the children who have been well placed in the emergency community.
Judging from the information I just got, is she going to do something like this again?
The door to the lounge opened in thought.
"Yan you——"
In front of him, Vasile's originally smiling expression suddenly froze.
"What's wrong?" Mu Qingyan asked in confusion.
The lights in the corridor suddenly flickered and then returned to normal.
She seemed to remember something and raised her hand to touch her left earlobe.
—Face blurring program…
——Don’t be…
"Oh, sorry, maybe I'm a little tired recently, I didn't see it clearly just now..."
Vasile's expression became gentle and polite again.
"Yan, Dustin asked me to come look for you. Intermission is almost over. Are you okay?"
"How did you know I was here?"
"Oh, that's because, of course, I've been following you. After all, you're a little too mysterious."
“…”
Under Mu Qingyan's increasingly wary gaze, Vasile Guan finally seemed to be unable to hold back and started laughing:
"Just kidding! As the mediator, I have copies of all the participants' access documents. I can easily find their exact locations."
He lifted his tablet and shook it.
"But Yan, honestly, how old are you? 20? It's really inappropriate for you to have such a serious expression at this age, or is everyone at Infinity trying to emulate their CEO's mature demeanor?"
Mu Qingyan knew her current state. If she continued arguing, she would only expose herself more. So she stepped aside and walked towards the meeting room.
"Don't be ridiculous. How can we possibly learn the boss's skills?"
Perhaps she was too distracted, so she didn't hear the person behind her sighing softly as he looked at her back:
"That's good... Such beautiful eyes... wouldn't it be a shame if they were occupied by that kind of gaze..."
…
Mu Qingyan had no desire to participate in the final voting session.
Dustin, on the other hand, stared at the rising numbers on the screen leisurely, looking very expectant.
The last vote was successfully sent, and the two bar charts representing whether to accept the death penalty were frozen.
79(death penalty√) : 78(death penalty×).
There was a sigh.
The good doctor still acted like an outsider, stood up and began to read the closing remarks.
Just as the opening remarks were finished, the door to the conference room suddenly opened:
"Dr. Guan, Terrence Bedford, died in the reception room."
…
Vasile led his team over almost immediately, while the rest stayed here to comfort the frightened crowd.
Dustin hacked into Halden's entire surveillance system in a few moves, and for some unknown reason, he directly released the video to the public.
On the screen, dozens of fully armed special police officers and security robots have begun to guard each floor, which has eliminated the tension in the meeting room.
Of course, there are also those who are not optimistic about this approach.
"Halden Prison's security measures are said to be world-class, yet they've been breached so easily. Dustin, could it be that you've already made some arrangements for yourself when you were involved in its construction?"
This wasn't the first time that Infinity's CEO had been questioned in this way. Seeing his friend's expression clearly showing he didn't want to waste words, Mu Qingyan stood up again, responsibly.
"The boss was still young when Halden began construction twelve years ago. The list of personnel involved in the subsequent firewall reinforcement is well-documented. Infinity was not involved. Please investigate before making any conclusions."
Several of those present were actually programmers back then, but after seeing the security strategies they had painstakingly built being breached so easily, they could only dare to be angry but not to speak out.
As a private company, Infinity also meets the standards for launching satellites in the United States, and is even higher in level, with a wider coverage area and more powerful real-time monitoring capabilities.
Country M commercialized the aerospace sector decades ago, so it was perfectly normal for Infinity to participate in satellite launches, not to mention that many countries relied on Dustin's technology.
So Mu Qingyan saw that familiar expression of envy and jealousy on more people's faces, and could only shake his head helplessly.
However, this atmosphere was soon broken.
Vasile Guan walked in with a serious expression, his eyes fell on Mu Qingyan, then quickly looked away:
"Everyone, a sad news, Terrence Bedford has been confirmed dead. The cause of death is—"
He paused.
"Heart attack."
“This… How is this possible?!”
"Dr. Guan is an expert in this area. He said so, so I'm afraid..."
"Oh right! Wasn't Terrence Bedford supposed to meet his family today? Why did this happen? Doctor Guan, who is that person? Is there no suspicion at all?"
The image of the reception room immediately appeared on the surveillance screen.
The handsome young man was surrounded by a group of special police officers. He did not look relaxed, with a slightly frown on his face, but he was not panicked at all, making it impossible to associate him with a murderer.
"Terrence Bedford and Mr. Kinsley were indeed meeting at the time of the incident, but Mr. Kinsley, as per regulations, was standing outside the protective perimeter, making it impossible for the culprit to easily penetrate. Furthermore, examinations have shown that Terrence Bedford must have witnessed an extremely horrific scene before his death, which caused a sudden increase in his heart rate. The prisoner himself had a fragile coronary artery, so..."
Once these words were spoken, no one could refute them.
Everything was as expected. Mu Qingyan looked at the person very calmly without saying a word.
After all, this result coincides with the results of the meeting vote.
It's a pity that Terrence Bedford did not live to see the day of his public execution.
"Everyone, the results of this meeting have been recorded one by one. After the team has sorted them out, we would like to ask everyone to encrypt and confirm them. Once they are correct, they will be announced to the public truthfully--"
"Then. Meeting adjourned."
…
As evening approached, the famous star in Reykjavik finally received news from his sweetheart:
"I've left Halden and will be back by plane soon."
After a day of worrying, he finally let go and began to happily prepare dinner.
Although he was just fooling around Tanaka.
"Kinsley, do you need my help?"
Xu Lanxi put down the book in her hand and went into the kitchen.
When she came to Kinsley's room this morning, she found that Mu Qingyan had left. Although she didn't know the reason, she was naturally very happy to have time alone with Kinsley.
Worried that the other party would feel embarrassed, she found the photos she had taken during her field trip and asked him to choose with her.
She had a plan.
Some of the photos were taken when the two of them met by chance abroad a long time ago. She kept them as treasures, hoping that they could remind the man of some memories of her existence.
Although she could see clearly in her eyes and heart that Kinsley was in good condition today, he was still a little absent-minded.
"Kinsley?"
"Hmm? Oh sorry...what's wrong Lanxi?"
--really...
Xu Lanxi pinched her fingers and asked a different question:
"I mean, I don't know what Miss Mu likes to eat. Maybe I can help?"
"ah..."
The big star who had been quiet all day seemed to finally switch on, scratching his head in a funny and embarrassed manner.
"Actually... I don't know what Yanyan likes to eat now! I can only let Tanaka cook according to her childhood tastes—"
"When I was little?"
Xu Lanxi ignored the extremely intimate name and caught another key word.
"Kinsley, have you and Miss Mu... known each other for a long time?"
——But, how is this possible...
"Oh, yes, Yanyan and I—hiss..."
"What's wrong with you, sir?"
"Kinsley...what's wrong? Do you have a headache?"
Xu Lanxi quickly took the person who was covering the back of his head to the living room and asked him to sit down.
Kinsley let her do whatever she wanted, but when she wanted to reach out to touch the wound, she was suddenly held down by the other party with great force.
"I'm fine, just stay away from me, I'll be fine soon."
"Kin...sley..."
Xu Lanxi looked at those eyes in a daze.
Even if it was just a moment, the fierceness in that look was not her illusion.
The whole living room suddenly fell silent.
Until a strange ringtone rang.
Xu Lanxi accidentally glanced at the phone screen and did not make any notes.
Kinsley, who was sitting on the sofa, blinked, looking a little confused. He didn't pick up the phone until the second ring.
"York?"
Xu Lanxi was not familiar with this name.
But she heard a clear explosion from within.
Even if there is some distortion, it is difficult to conceal the seriousness of the matter.
Not to mention, Kinsley's eyes suddenly widened, his handsome face instantly lost its color, and his hands were almost broken.
She quickly took out her cell phone -
"According to the latest official Norwegian report, today's sentencing meeting for Terrence Bedford proceeded smoothly in Halden. However, following the meeting, the plane carrying the Infinity CEO and his entourage exploded over Østfold shortly after takeoff. The casualties are currently under investigation..."
