Every day is one step closer to reality

A hospital in Yangcheng.

The moment the explosion occurred at Schroeder Pharmaceuticals, Mr. Feng received the news.

In that city over there, the old man also left people to pay attention to the news.

When it comes to what he desires most, he is willing to invest a large amount of money and become one of Schroeder's supporters. Of course, it is impossible for him to not even know the other party's fundamentals.

After learning that the headquarters of Schroeder Pharmaceuticals had exploded, the old man was still calm.

He knew before that as the investigation team approached, Schroeder would definitely escape from his shell.

I just don’t know if the shelling was successful or not.

He asked the people following him to continue to pay attention to the investigation team's movements and respond immediately if there was any information.

Ancestral Factory Headquarters.

Xiao Ren, the full-time stand-in, finally completed his mission and ushered in the real master.

"Come back in such a hurry?" Yue Gengyang was puzzled.

"Be on guard against the investigation team." Feng Yi said.

Yue Gengyang observed Feng Yi's expression. At this time, Feng Yi was sitting on the sofa. Although he looked relatively relaxed, his expression was not so relaxed.

"Is this trip not going smoothly?" Yue Gengyang asked.

"No. This trip went quite smoothly. The time and place were right, and the whole process was planned." Feng Yi said.

"Then what are you worried about?"

Although Yue Gengyang did not follow the past, in today's Internet age, some progress can be seen from online videos.

Things are going well over there, and you are not afraid of the investigation team coming to your door. What else is there to worry about?

"It's the same thing I told you last time." Feng Yi said.

When summoning the tornado, he felt that some of the energy substances in the air were too restless.

He didn't usually use a lot of energy, so it didn't feel too obvious. When he summoned the "Fire Dragon", he found that the restlessness in the sky was changing faster than he expected.

That's not a small fight like Feng Yi's, that's a larger-scale agitation! Once a place becomes a point of catharsis, it will be an unimaginable blow!

When Yue Gengyang heard this, he immediately sat up straight: "The worst case scenario you mentioned has already begun to appear?"

"The probability of it happening has increased!" Feng Yi corrected.

Every time the Butterfly Project is tested, energy material will be newly generated. And those newly generated ones make the original balance begin to change. The general direction of this change is good, and it is also very beneficial to Feng Yi. But if the changes are too rapid, there may be backlash.

Feng Yi used those energy substances to strengthen himself and successfully transformed. At that time, he inherited the skills passed down from his ancestors for thousands of years.

Perhaps our ancestors also struggled for a long time before they figured out a safe way to use it.

The Butterfly Project was too hasty. They wanted to use more experiments to explore unknown variables, but it was hard to imagine how much backlash the unknown variables would bring.

"Reinforce branches and warehouses in various places, and make changes immediately if they need to be made. Be prepared to prevent floods and storms. Not only offshore areas, but also those located in other places must be vigilant!" Feng Yi said seriously.

"Every branch and warehouse?" Yue Gengyang asked.

"Everyone! Regardless of the size of the branches in various places, whether it is a large warehouse or a small warehouse, upstairs or in the basement, all precautionary measures must be taken!"

Yue Gengyang nodded: "After the voting for the actual combat exercise ended, you said that your hunch was wrong, so I notified all localities to strengthen security work. This time to check for leaks and fill the vacancies, I will let the branches that have not completed the security upgrade speed up the progress, and the affiliated companies Will check again."

Feng Yi added: "In the past two months, there have been too many offshore tests. Do you think we can slow them down?"

Yue Gengyang did not hesitate: "I'm afraid it's difficult! You need to take a look at this information."

He pulled up a copy of the news from the past two days.

"What is reported here is the growth in stock prices of companies related to the Butterfly Project concept in the past three months."

In a short period of time, the stock price increased several times or dozens of times, making too many people crazy.

"There are a new batch of billionaires, and these are just rough statistics." Yue Gengyang said, "Do you remember that guy Raymond?"

"Big investor Raymond?" Feng Yi met the investment tycoon during actual combat exercises.

"That's him. The one who was shouting opposition, and who seemed reluctant to vote at the time, was unambiguous in his actions."

Attitude is one thing, making money is another.

"In this year's rich list, he may be among the top five or even the top three in the world!" Yue Gengyang said. "New and old rich people have increased their investment in the Butterfly Project and related concepts. Too many people are tied to this car in terms of performance and local political achievements." On the chariot! It’s not just a matter of words to make them stop. Even if you stand up, you will be forced down."

Feng Yi took a long breath.

"Then we can only do our best to deal with human affairs first."

No one knows the terror of the restless energy in the sky better than him.

Even if a storm is created by a large amount of energy exchange during molting, the impact range is far smaller than that of a naturally formed typhoon and hurricane.

Our ancestors may have been able to do it a long time ago, but now, times are different and the living environment is different.

A stunted and weak junior like him was far inferior.

The other side of the ocean.

The joint investigation team is still working closely.

What happened that night, the media said: a night maintenance accident caused a series of explosions and burnings.

But there are also various rumors spread.

As videos shot by residents from multiple angles were posted online, various theories quickly spread.

Experts from various countries are analyzing the reasons for the formation of this fire tornado: why the fire tornado phenomenon was strangely formed in this kind of weather and environment.

Fortunately, the fire was extinguished by heavy rains, and other surrounding factories and buildings did not suffer major damage.

The scene captured by everyone was horrific, but the actual damage caused was limited. It can be said that in this accident, only "Schroeder Pharmaceuticals" suffered the greatest losses. This is truly a devastating blow!

During the investigation, employees were interviewed, and those employees also realized that there was a problem here.

Rumors are increasing one after another. Even if the investigation team has not yet released the final results, residents know that there is suspected illegality here.

A video blogger on the Internet excitedly explained:

"Oh God, the fire tornado that formed this time is very rare, but it seems that all coincidences came together, and it just appeared! And it only appeared within the scope of Schroeder Pharmaceuticals, and did not move to other places!"

He interviewed local residents.

resident:

"You mean Schroeder Pharmaceuticals? Ah, I already knew something was wrong there! That eye (company icon) always emits a weird and evil light at night!"

Video blogger: "...Is it possible that it's just a light effect?"

Resident: "Damn light effects! I'm talking about that eye! I've complained so many times but they just won't change it! Oh it must be God's punishment this time! Thank God it's finally gone! Oh, they still don't change it!" Suspected of illegal pharmaceuticals and human trafficking, I heard..."

There were many people on the Internet and in real life discussing this incident, but the investigation team did not pay much attention.

They found too many things from the guards and the disguised "maintenance workers."

In addition to the networks that manufacture and distribute illegal drugs, there are also issues such as illegal supply chains, human trafficking, money laundering and more.

Important clues were also found from the remains at the scene, which gave them a clearer direction for their investigation.

However, what they are now confused about is that there must be another party involved.

If not, Schroeder would have already left with others by the time they arrived.

In the ruins of the scene, the charred remains at the entrance of the passage were carefully searched by forensic scientists before they found the lightly charred parts. The DNA obtained proved that it was Schroeder himself.

The scene that was repeatedly burned by the fire tornado did not include the passage, so identity could still be proved.

Here comes the problem.

Who stopped Schroeder?

What exactly is the cargo Schroeder wants to transport secretly?

The guards didn't know, and neither did the person responsible for transporting the goods, but it must be related to the drugs Schroeder manufactured!

Maybe that thing has been smuggled out, and it has been under strict investigation recently. Otherwise, after sealing this batch of drugs, the next batch of drugs will come out!

As for the mysterious party, the investigation team is leaning toward one or a few investors behind Schroeder. The purpose is to silence them.

But if they were silenced, why not kill the guards and the cargo carriers as well?

Those people are experienced and have done this kind of work more than once. If they are left here, they will only find out more and involve a larger and more complex illegal profit chain. Generally speaking, people who can invest in Schroders will not easily damage this kind of interest chain.

"It's possible that this mysterious investor has never participated in this type of interest chain."

"But according to what we have found so far, Schroeder's experiments were conducted on human subjects. Don't the investors behind him know? Investment means participation!"

“People are complex individuals.”

"Or maybe it's complicated interests!"

"Calm down everyone, evidence! Tell me about the evidence!"

While the investigators were discussing, Team Leader Yuan, who had been deep in thought beside him, suddenly asked:

"Is there any movement at the Ancestor Factory?"

"Yes!" said one investigator.

Lao Yuan looked over with sharp eyes.

The man picked up a piece of information he had just received and handed it over and said, "There is some movement, but it has nothing to do with what we are investigating."

Team leader Yuan took a look and realized it was true.

Ancestral Factory’s external statement is: Due to the frequent occurrence of extreme weather and rare celestial phenomena in various places, we are very worried about what uncontrollable disaster will happen next, so we are preparing in advance.

After thinking about it, Team Leader Yuan looked at the time and called Feng Yi. Or a video call.

This kind of phone call during case handling does not avoid other colleagues, but other people will not appear in the camera screen, let alone interrupt the call.

Feng Yi was quickly connected.

"Are you at the Ancestral Factory headquarters?" Team Leader Yuan looked at the background of the video.

"Yeah, isn't this what you suggested?" Feng Yi had the same expression, and he confidently adjusted the camera to let Lao Yuan take a look at where he was. The large floor-to-ceiling window next to him could see the city scene outside the window.

It is indeed the headquarters building of the Founder Factory.

Team leader Yuan said "hmm" without changing his expression and said, "Our investigation has reached a critical stage. Protect yourself over there."

After a pause, Lao Yuan added: "We still need the Ancestor Factory to urgently provide a batch of test kits, and there are several drugs that we need your help to analyze."

Feng Yi said: "Oh, you can directly find the person responsible for this. I usually don't care about the company's affairs."

Team leader Yuan immediately asked: "Is Mr. Yue here?"

Feng Yi said in his heart: Lao Yuan is still wary.

Without refusing, Feng Yi calmly replied: "He was still here just now. Let me call out, Xiao... Yue? Are you there?"

Team leader Yuan on the other side of the phone: "..."

And other members of the investigation team who heard this: "..."

Unexpectedly, Feng Yi and Yue Gengyang usually get along like this.

Very good, very consistent with the persona of the top decision-maker of the Founder Factory. Steady!

How many people outside dare to call Yue Gengyang "Xiaoyue" directly?

"He will come right away." Feng Yi said, "Old Yuan, if possible, you should advise your colleagues involved in the Butterfly Project to reduce the frequency of offshore tests! I always feel that something is going to happen, and I feel uneasy."

"I will consider it," Team Leader Yuan replied calmly.

Several people in the conference room who also belonged to the Joint Security Bureau looked at Team Leader Yuan silently.

It's useless even if we say it, it's not within our scope of responsibility. We all perform our duties and cannot interfere with the work of other departments.

But having said that, Feng Yi's attitude has always been very clear - he is opposed to conducting offshore tests in the short term.

The current movements made by the Ancestor Factory are also very reasonable.

So, why does Lao Yuan always suspect the Ancestor Factory?

the other side.

Yue Gengyang and Team Leader Yuan talked back and forth and finished the conversation in a business-like manner.

"It's exactly as you guessed. Lao Yuan will indeed carry out a surprise attack. This call is to confirm whether you and I are in the company." Yue Gengyang sighed twice.

"I said, Lao Yuan has keen intuition in this regard."

Feng Yi didn't know what kind of psychological pressure his aunt had put on him when he was young, so that if anything happened now, Lao Yuan would always suspect him.

Yue Gengyang handed the phone back to Feng Yi and said, "I received news that the investigation team is very stubborn this time. The various interest chains are really dragging them all the way up to investigate!"

"People from the Joint Security Bureau are involved in this investigation. Their attitude was very tough before. Even if the resistance is strong this time, they will definitely pull down a few big shots." Feng Yi said.

"It's good. Let them focus on those things and stop staring at our ancestor factory." Yue Gengyang said with a smile.

The investigation team has been sending people to keep an eye on them. Of course they knew, otherwise Feng Yi would not have used a substitute.

Although he wasn't afraid of the investigation team coming over to investigate, he still felt uncomfortable being stared at like this.

Yue Gengyang left quickly. Since you promised Team Leader Yuan to provide more testing kits, regardless of whether these are excuses from the other party, just get things done.

Feng Yi was sitting in the lounge, looking through the information and materials brought by Yue Gengyang, which were all the investigation trends of this joint investigation team.

Just as I was watching, there was a call request. It was brought here by the wind.

"Hello, Achi?"

"The old man is not in good condition. This time it is real, not pretending. My mother just called and asked me to ask for leave from the program team and rush back, just in case. Brother, will you come over?" Feng Chi said in a deep voice.

Feng Yi said: "Is it appropriate for me to go over at this time? What if the old man could have recovered, but as soon as I came over, he was furious..."

Feng Chi paused: "Uh... In this case... I don't know what the old man is thinking, but others must want you to go there."

See you tomorrow

(Are you relieved?)
