Chapter 588: Chapter 588 Evidence in Hand
The researcher’s thought flashed past, because the moment he crouched down, the guard at the door had already fired the laser gun.
The laser shot straight at the person who had barged in, but surprisingly, he did not fall. Instead, he charged out powerfully, and the guards at the door couldn’t stop him in time, allowing him to escape.
At that point, the situation worsened significantly.
"Quick! Chase him!"
"Shoot him!"
Someone roared angrily, and the laser guns behind him fired relentlessly at the fleeing figure, yet the figure who was shot continued to run.
How was this possible?
He had been shot in the head and hit in the heart, but how could he still be running?
Not only running, but he also ventured into other floors of the building.
The security chief, stationed at the elevator doors, saw such a strange event for the first time, but capturing the intruder was the top priority.
"Lock down the entire building, lock down the entire building."
The security chief, along with several others, split up to pursue; they had to find this person.
The researcher, who had been sitting on the ground, stared at the floor for a long time before finally regaining his composure and murmuring, "No blood, no blood."
At this moment, the researcher thought even more—had the monster they were studying escaped? It wasn’t an outsider but their own experimental subject.
Staggering to his feet, the researcher entered the elevator, continually pressing the button, downward, downward.
At this time, Daodao had transformed into a nondescript green glow, and the puppet he had destroyed left no trace at all.
Next, it was time for the thirty-six stratagems.
What was this move called?
Encircling Wei to save Zhao? A deceptive shot? Create a diversion?
Daodao couldn’t figure it out and decided not to bother thinking about it—better to start setting fires first.
A sparkle finer than dust began setting fires throughout the building.
The building’s alarm sounded incessantly.
"Eldest, northeast corner."
"No, it’s the southwest corner."
"My display shows the northwest corner."
For a moment, the one referred to as Eldest felt his head was about to explode—who are they, and just how many are there?
"Spread out, go!"
Those above started firefighting and capturing people.
The researcher, returning to the underground, frantically burst into the laboratory and shared his conjecture with Old Zheng.
Old Zheng’s pupils constricted—could it really be?
He rushed into the innermost laboratory with the researcher; the person who should have been full of tubes was now missing.
"Damn!"
Old Zheng made a quick decision because he had no idea what kind of monster they had studied. He knew only one thing—if this person had escaped, their research institute was in jeopardy.
"Tell the people upstairs, no matter what, they must capture that person; it cannot be leaked."
"Yes."
The researcher also understood the severity of the situation because everything they did was forbidden.
Old Zheng quickly left the room, and just as he turned around, a ripple seemed to flicker behind him, revealing Nian Shutong’s figure along with the person full of tubes.
At this moment, this person, having regained a bit of his sanity, said three words to Nian Shutong: "Kill me."
"Alright, as you wish."
Nian Shutong struck with a palm, ending this person’s life.
Even if this person had not requested it, Nian Shutong could not have let him go.
The energy within this person’s body was thoroughly mixed and turbulent, like a Tribulation Crossing Ancestor ready to self-destruct at any moment. If released, he would have been a massive killing weapon in the human world.
She might not be a good person, but she did not wish to turn the outside world into a living hell.
A void flame engulfed and burned the person’s body to ashes.
It was better for him to die cleanly, otherwise, if someone found the body, they might still be able to make use of it.
Having done all this, Nian Shutong followed Old Zheng and saw him opening a secret compartment.
The paper documents inside were taken out one by one and thrown into a furnace, preparing for the destruction of evidence.
Nian Shutong stepped forward, knocked Old Zheng unconscious with a palm strike, and took various items from the secret compartment, organized them, and stored them all in her Space Ring.
As for Old Zheng, she first crippled his cultivation, then broke his hands and legs, and left him in the office.
When she exposed everything here, the trapped Old Zheng would be an important witness.
Having secured the evidence, Nian Shutong exited the underground laboratory and contacted Daodao from a secret location.
When she and Daodao met, Nian Shutong disguised herself as a guard looking for someone, went to the door, and walked out of the building in broad daylight.
After she left, it was exactly 7 PM, and Little River Live began.
Nian Shutong immediately contacted Fu Yunhe and prepared to transmit the evidence to him. When the communication was established, Fu Yunhe’s first words were, "Are you alright?"
"I’m fine, don’t worry," Nian Shutong, watching the building erupt in flames behind her, told Fu Yunhe, "Actually, the movies we watch aren’t impossible. Sometimes, one person really can turn the entire villain upside down."
On the other end, Fu Yunhe, hearing Nian Shutong’s reflections, asked knowingly, "A big haul?"
"Extremely big."
Nian Shutong went to a location, set up a barrier, and said to Fu Yunhe, "The Chi Family is done for, tell the Yu Family."
Fu Yunhe understood and responded, "I know, I’ll tell the Yu Family to be ready."
"Okay, organize the materials. I’m going to act as a concerned citizen and take this information to the Imperial Palace."
"Alright, be careful."
The two ended their communication. At the same time, Little River Live also began.
"Hello, everyone, I am Rubble, our Boss isn’t home, it’s a minor issue, and I can handle it."
Rubble, true to form, used no extra words. He then took out a device, turned it to maximum virtually, and began demonstrating.
"This is a machine designed to test radiation, which I designed myself. This is an interstellar machine for testing radiation."
Holding the interstellar radiation testing device, Rubble tested a bundle of fresh rice. The device showed no reaction.
"No radiation."
[What is Rubble doing?]
[We’ve tried this method too, but those people insisted that radiation was completely absorbed by the crops, so the rice cooked from it is toxic.]
[I think they’re causing trouble.]
[Clearly targeting Little River Live.]
[Probably got in the way of a lot of people.]
Rubble, undisturbed by the comments in the chat, continued with his own work, undistracted by external factors.
"After testing with the interstellar device, let’s check Rubble’s machine."
Rubble placed a bundle of rice into the machine he made, which resembled a box with a screen on top.
The rice went into the box but the screen showed no change.
[Is this your explanation?]
[What does it mean? I don’t understand?]
