"How could that be? I gave you this before..."

"I've used it up." Fei Qixia answered straightforwardly, and then continued: "Do you remember what I told you a long time ago?"

"what?"

“It’s about those wealthy people wanting to invest in us.”

Rockoff remembered this incident, but he just let it go at the time and didn't take it to heart. Now that Fei Qixia brought it up again, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "So what?"

"You know that rich people like to tinker with some weird stuff, such as..." He pointed at the logo of the second and third laboratories on the screen, and said, "something that can extend their lifespan. They want to invest in the second and third laboratories, but I can allocate the funds to the first laboratory. We don't actually have a choice whether to accept this investment."

Rockoff certainly understood what he meant. If they wanted to continue the experiment, they had to accept the investment, and accepting the investment meant starting the second and third labs. If he didn't want to, even the first lab's experiments would be stopped soon.

He really didn't have a choice.

Rockoff gave in, and this giving in brought them endless trouble.

Rockefeller agreed to the establishment of the second and third laboratories, but he asked for a temporary delay. Fei Qixia asked him how long he wanted to delay, and he said at least one year, and Fei Qixia readily agreed.

However, Fei Qixia broke his promise. While Rockov was focusing on the experiments in the first laboratory, he secretly carried out the experiments in the second laboratory. And he was knocked unconscious in the laboratory after the first suture was awakened. If Shadow had not arrived in time, he might have died at the hands of his own experimental subject.

But because of this, the experimental subject sneaked out of the laboratory and was discovered by the federal army, and the interstellar alarm was sounded. Even Edel secretly sent a message to Rockoff to tell him to be careful, because recently there were incredible creatures in the interstellar.

Rockoff thought that if Edel's thing was related to him, he would probably be so angry that he died.

He responded to Edel's message and then quickly walked to Fei Qixia's ward.

Fei Qixia just woke up and saw Rockefeller entering the ward. He raised his hand and was about to say hello to him. Before he could talk to Rockefeller, Rockefeller's fist had already struck him in the face.

Fei Qixia was stunned for a moment. He covered his bleeding nose and did not show any anger.

However, the doctor nearby saw this and immediately came over to pull Rockoff away and strongly condemned him.

Rockoff shook off the doctor's hand, grabbed Fei Qixia by the collar, and said with bloodshot eyes: "What did you promise me? You said you would not start the experiments in the second and third laboratories. Look at what you have done now? You know that the news has spread outside that there are humanoid alien beasts. What do you think we should do?"

Upon hearing this, Fei Qixia did not show any surprise or annoyance, but instead suddenly laughed.

He showed no remorse under Rockoff's wrath. He grabbed Rockoff's arm like crazy and asked, "Isn't this good? Now our investors know that we are not just taking money for nothing?"

When Rockoff heard this, sweat broke out on his back and a chill ran up his spine.

He knew that Fei Qixia was a lunatic before, but what he didn't expect was that Fei Qixia was even crazier than he imagined!

"Investors? Are you still thinking about this? Have you ever thought about what to do with our laboratory? What to do with the overbearing experiment?"

"There will be a way, right? No need to worry..."

"How can you not let me be anxious!" Rockoff found that there was no remorse in Fei Qixia's eyes. He suddenly felt bored. Communicating with Fei Qixia about this matter was the worst choice he made today.

Rockoff let go of Fei Qixia's collar and sat down dejectedly on a chair beside the bed. He let out a long breath, then covered his eyes, leaned back in the chair and looked up in thought.

Fei Qixia did not interrupt his thoughts, but silently took the cotton wool handed to him by the doctor and stuffed it into his nasal cavity.

The doctor roughly examined his nose. Fortunately, Rockoff had been out of the federal army for a long time and did not have the physique of a martial artist. Fei Qixia was able to save his nose.

After a long silence, Rockoff finally said, "I will guide public opinion and make them think it is an evolved being. Throwing out a smokescreen may give us a chance to catch our breath. You should quickly clean up the mess, or I will not let you go."

Fei Qixia's nose was blocked at this time, and his voice was buzzing, but Rockefeller still heard what he said clearly.

"I knew you would find a way. You are worthy of being my partner."

His praise did not receive even a glance from Rockoff. Rockoff snorted coldly and left the ward, starting to plan his public opinion war.

At this point, even Rockoff had to admit that money was too important to them.

If Fei Qixia didn't have a large amount of liquid funds, he wouldn't even be able to buy the hot searches, let alone maintain the experimental project that was burning money every day.

Rockefeller succeeded, and people fell into panic about the evolution of alien beasts. For the time being, no one thought of artificial experimental subjects. But Rockefeller knew that this matter could not be concealed for long. After all, Dr. Arnold, who has been in the spotlight recently, is an expert in this field. It is estimated that she will find clues in a short time and overturn the conclusion of the hot search.

Rockoff is already considering whether the laboratory needs to be relocated.

But now there are too many monitoring devices that need to be left on "Badao", and migration is a big project. After weighing the pros and cons, he decided to stay put and take one step at a time.

After Rockoff finished everything, he returned to his room, and he seemed to be in deep self-doubt. Qin Jiu thought of the contents of the diary, and she knew that Rockoff was struggling with why he became the creator of the alien beast, and all this was completely different from what he had expected.

The scene changed again, and this time Qin Jiu stood in the middle of the chaotic laboratory. She looked at the experimenter who was running around collecting materials. She acted like an audience in a parallel world, watching everything with a cold eye.

The water tank in front of him was emptied again, and Qin Jiu knew that was a sign of experimental failure. However, the people in the laboratory did not seem to feel sad about the failure of the experiment, and no one planned to restart the experiment.

They were carrying things out of the laboratory, apparently making an emergency evacuation.

Soon, her guess was verified because she saw Rockoff and Fei Qixia.

Even when they were directing the move, they kept bickering.

"I told you that it's only a matter of time before you're discovered. I told you not to start the experiments in the second and third laboratories for now. Look, now..."
