Fox Has No Malicious Intent
Chapter 857 - 854: Sun-Dried Salted Fish
"How did you guys end up in Xia Dong?"
Upon seeing Unos and Lu Tiannan, Ansheng ran to the position of the cabin door, letting out a whimper towards the two.
Unos, after a brief moment of being stunned, walked around the plane he had taken to the ramp, glanced at the flight attendants who were staring at him with full vigilance, and said:
"Li said that since I was just idling around, he arranged for me to do some tasks, so I followed Lu, flying all the way from the north to the south...."
Because there were others present, Unos didn’t reveal too many details when he spoke.
The main reason Unos appeared in Xia Dong was that Li Wenkang was going on a business trip, and the life science laboratory he was overseeing entered a sealed state.
The laboratory used by Li Wenkang belonged to a "Sixth Protection Level" laboratory within the Security Bureau.
Without the accompaniment of a responsible person, no one is allowed near or to enter it; the research stored and conducted inside holds extremely high or hidden risks.
In the event of a leak, while biochemical defenses are activated, the entire district’s residents must be evacuated immediately.
Genetic contamination is covert and hereditary; if infection occurs, it would impact generations to come.
Without the person in charge present, no one can enter an activated "Level 6" biochemical research facility.
Seeing Unos idle, Li Wenkang simply tossed him over to Lu Tiannan.
When first meeting Lu Tiannan, Unos wore a sullen face throughout, thinking that Li Wenkang was wasting his time.
Upon the mention of the "Original Cells" concept, Unos fiercely slammed his bank card on the table, telling Li Wenkang to take it, and if the "Original Cells" ever need more funding, he should feel free to max out both his bank and credit cards.
Even if I have to take out usurious payday loans, I will invest in the Original Cells research project.
Whether or not there are results doesn’t matter; my main interest is archaeology.
The pie baked by Li Wenkang was so enticing that Unos had practically forgotten what he originally came to do. He then followed Lu Tiannan all the way from Chang’an City to Xia Dong to search for treasure.
"...So the calling Original Cell is in Xia Dong?" 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Ansheng invited Unos into the cabin, and after a brief exchange of information, Ansheng looked astonished and turned to the right-hand side with a proud expression: "Are you sure?"
"Actually, it’s not exactly in Xia Dong; judging by the strength of the signals during this period, we should still be around five or six hundred kilometers away in a straight line....."
With a smug expression on his face, the right hand threw a sideways glance at Lu Tiannan, who was of no use, before continuing leisurely:
"The main purpose of our trip to Xia Dong is to accurately pinpoint the location and present it to Master Fuli."
Lu Tiannan remained silent, acknowledging by default the right hand’s undisputed MVP contributions to this matter.
"Impressive! In just a few short days, you guys already traced it down to such an extent."
Getting further confirmation from the right-hand side, Ansheng couldn’t help but express a look of admiration, praising the right-hand side.
The signal was extremely weak, not originally a call for help directed at the right-hand side, but a general broadcast.
Catching that trace amidst endless static and chasing it across a 2000-kilometer journey, the right hand was truly determined.
"All for the Security Bureau’s security policy, considering the safety of the people of Xia Country, but primarily to assist Master Fuli in doing good..."
The right hand’s nose proudly pointed upward; if it had a tail, it surely would have wagged like a propeller.
What good deeds or benefits, it couldn’t care less; what the right hand wanted was, after mission completion, for Master Fuli to introduce a distributor of Treasure Tree Spirit Liquid to it.
"That’s quite the way you put it..."
Ansheng clicked his tongue in wonder, saying with a smile: "Have you found a place to stay for tonight? If not, I can have someone prepare it for you..."
Unos shook his head and said: "Accommodation is unnecessary; we’re not tired, just prepare a fuel truck for us..."
Resting in accommodations would waste too much time; during the mission, injecting Spiritual Shark Extract artificially raises muscular and circulatory excitement, sustaining two weeks without sleep.
After the mission ends, spending 16 hours in a deep coma inside a nutrition chamber is the most cost-effective approach.
As Unos spoke, he flashed a subtly modest smile toward Lu Tiannan and the right-hand side.
Unos, in a female guise, smiled, but the smile carried a faint chill.
"A fuel truck?"
Ansheng rummaged through his chest bag, took out his phone, and sent a message to Lin Bingyun.
Lin Bingyun responded very quickly; they were already handling procedures at the airport.
In a moment, they could take one of the cars from the fleet for Unos and them to use.
"Alright, got a car sorted for you." Ansheng looked at Unos and said.
"Thanks..." Unos expressed gratitude, with a slight smile on his face.
The Longevity Club wielded significant influence, being almost like land emperors in certain regions and even small countries.
However, Xia Dong was an exception, due to having offended Master Fuli; forget influence, now any related members exposed would be chased by dogs.
If Master Fuli didn’t help find a car, Unos would have to waste time going to a rental car place.
"Master Fuli!"
After a moment of waiting in the cabin, Lin Ying, having just completed the pet fox procedure, walked into the cabin with a smile.
Facing Unos and Lu Tiannan, Lin Ying nodded in courtesy and greeted them.
"Lin Ying ying ying ying——"
Ansheng leapt from the seat, smiling as he jumped onto her shoulder to greet her.
"Good evening."
Lin Ying responded, inviting Unos and Lu Tiannan to step outside with her.
Aboard the nanny car, Lin Ying lent the Mercedes she originally rode in to Unos and his team.
The nanny car drove out, headed straight to Grandma Hedgehog’s office at Hailinglong Club under Master Fuli’s guidance.
"Achoo——"
Lin Hao, wrapped in a blanket, awaited Master Fuli’s arrival in the parking lot elevator door area, waving at the nanny car upon receiving advance notice from Lin Bingyun.
"Master Fuli, park over here, the spot by the elevator is reserved for you, achoo....."
Lin Hao mentioned while sneezing again, sniffing, his eyes red, clearly exhausted.
"Can you handle this?"
Ansheng stepped out of the nanny car, stood upright, and oddly questioned Lin Hao, who resembled a sick cat: "Is Grandma Hedgehog really not even granting sick leave?"
"There is leave to take, but lying in bed to rest always feels a bit unsettling....."
Lin Hao spoke with a heavily nasal tone, leading them into the club with helplessness on his face.
Grandma Hedgehog had turned into an enraged Stegosaurus.
None of them dared to rest in bed; they’d rather work while being sick than lie there and ponder whether Grandma would suddenly kick them.
"Is it really that extreme? Grandma Hedgehog doesn’t seem to have suffered much loss, right?" Ansheng inquired curiously.
"She didn’t really lose out, but during the wait for rescue, she was teased by her little brother from the sea; now there’re still two tuna she hasn’t caught back..."
"Look, that sailfish upstairs is almost salted and ready to be dried as salted fish on the rooftop by Grandma."
Lin Hao covered his mouth and nose with the blanket, mentioning upstairs’s ongoing revenge drama as he rode the elevator to the top floor.
