How come the celestial technique I stole is so powerful?!-Chapter 104: Serial Schemes, Fishing in Troubled Waters
Chapter 104: Chapter 104: Serial Schemes, Fishing in Troubled Waters
Dean Ye Teng of the research institute hurried over.
Upon seeing the two corpses in the laboratory, his complexion turned pale, and when he shifted his gaze to the shattered glass cover and saw it empty inside, he was furious: "Are you saying it was... Huang Chengwang from Daxia?"
"Yes!" The beauty who had been pouring tea for Lin Xiaosu answered, her face now ashen: "I met Mr. Dubian and him at the airport yesterday."
"The Black Dragon Society had already sent people over to transfer the Purple Demon Stone for their research, indicating they had thoughts of seizing it. I refused them on this side, and saying that Huang Chengwang came personally to retrieve it is also a possibility!" Dean Ye Teng said, "Let’s go, to Zezhuo Island!"
This depends on the particularities of Fusang Country.
Fusang Country is different from Daxia Country; the military and government are separate.
The Royal Research Institute belongs to the government.
The Black Dragon Society is backed by the military.
Although the government and military cooperate on the whole, there is also competition in many fields. freeweɓnovel~cѳm
Especially in the field of high technology.
This stone is related to a whole new technology, both the government and military want it, and holding the most advanced technology gives them more chips in the game of political power.
Hence, the Black Dragon Society demanded that the Royal Research Institute hand over the stone for research, with the reason being: The Black Dragon Society has a wealth of talent, and in the field of neutrinos, they have already obtained a large number of research results; the stone would yield results more easily in their hands.
Naturally, Dean Ye Teng refused.
The Vice Chairman Gu Cun from the Black Dragon Society left in disgruntlement at that time...
Were they willing to let it go?
Obviously not!
"Dean, is there another possibility?" A middle-aged man with glasses slowly looked up.
"Yi Teng, let’s hear your thoughts." Dean Ye Teng’s gaze moved towards him.
Because this Yi Teng was a person of great insight, and was highly regarded by Dean Ye Teng.
Yi Teng said, "I’ve seen Huang Chengwang’s profile; he’s a researcher and has no record of genetic transformation. The person who came tonight is clearly a top expert. Could there be an impersonator?"
Dean Ye Teng’s eyes became calm...
Everyone around also calmed down...
Could there be an impersonator?
Of course, it’s possible!
Just as Yi Teng said, Huang Chengwang is a research staff member. Researchers work on genetic transformation for others, but they themselves rarely undergo genetic transformation. Why? Because they know better than anyone that genetic transformation carries huge risks and severe side effects.
Researchers rely on their intelligence, not physical prowess. If they ruin their brains in pursuit of physical skills, they’ll lose the tools of their livelihood.
Unless this researcher has some severe illness that would kill him without genetic transformation, researchers are unlikely to take this path.
The possibility of impersonation is high.
Who could be impersonating?
It could be Qianlong! Since Qianlong has already appeared, one Qianlong was killed last night. Is it not possible for another to show up tonight? Of course, it is possible!
Besides Qianlong, is there any other possibility?
Yes, there is!
That would be the Black Dragon Society!
The Black Dragon Society is teeming with talents of all kinds. They could also be the ones impersonating Huang Chengwang coming to forcefully take the Purple Demon Stone. Now that they have succeeded and taken the stone, even if the Royal Research Institute wants to hold them accountable, they can outright deny it. At worst, they can give up Huang Chengwang!
The Black Dragon Society has done plenty of such things...
For a moment, there was a flurry of discussions and a multitude of speculative conclusions...
Dean Ye Teng’s gaze slowly lifted: "It could be Huang Chengwang, it could be imposture by Qianlong, or even the Black Dragon Society... Regardless of the possibilities, seeing is believing. Until we confront Huang Chengwang himself, it’s all speculation! Let’s go, to Zezhuo Island!"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Yes, no matter how complex your hypotheses are, you ultimately have to meet Huang Chengwang himself, see this person up close, collect all his information, and compare it to the traces he left at the Royal Research Institute to truly determine whether it was him who entered the institute at night to kill and steal the stone.
As for what follows, let’s wait and see how it plays out, but the first step must be to face Huang Chengwang himself.
Between Shidaoben Island and Zezhuo Island, on the sea, two heads looked up simultaneously, staring at the dozen or so cars racing through the night.
They also stared at a dozen or so speedboats that seemed to appear out of nowhere on the water.
Chang Ye’s heartbeat sped up: "They’re really coming!"
"Of course, no matter how complex their considerations, they won’t give up on a face-to-face meeting with Huang Chengwang."
Chang Ye asked, "Will Huang Chengwang really be taken by them?"
"That possibility is meaningless! Because that move is not within our game plan..."
"Not in our game plan?" Chang Ye’s eyes widened: "The end goal of the scheme you designed isn’t to lure Huang Chengwang off the island to create an opportunity to kill him?"
"Of course not!" Lin Xiaosu said: "All I want is for them to go to the island; the result of their interrogation of Huang Chengwang is not my concern at all."
After a moment of thought, Chang Ye’s eyes slowly brightened: "I understand now! We blend into their group and fish in troubled waters, right?"
"Yes!"
Chang Ye focused on the dozens of people boarding the speedboats: "The commotion caused by a dozen speedboats is enough... It’s truly fortunate they didn’t take flying cars; otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to fish in troubled waters."
"I’ve already checked; the Royal Research Institute only has two flying cars, which can’t fit so many people. Besides, it’s only a dozen miles from the Royal Research Institute to here, so they can only travel by car or boat."
"You’ve even calculated how many people would come?"
Lin Xiaosu smiled: "That depends on the particularities of the Black Dragon Society. The Black Dragon Society belongs to the military, and the Royal Research Institute to the government. Fusang Country is not like our country; their military and government have their conflicts. The Black Dragon Society is typical for its cunning and ruthlessness, and the Royal Research Institute deeply fears them. Without enough manpower, they don’t have the confidence to kick over the table on their opponents’ turf."
Chang Ye was a bit confused...
What’s this?
A series of brilliant plans, each step controlled with precision...
Was this trained at Base 101?
Please, I was in Base 101 for less than half a month and became as sharp as a ghost, how can I, who have lived in the small courtyard of 101 for several years, take this?
More than ten speedboats from the Royal Research Institute entered Zezhuo Island at night.
When they were still three hundred meters away from the island, huge searchlights on the island suddenly lit up, shining towards the speedboats on the sea.
Behind the searchlights, countless red lines also lit up; these were military laser sights, not very useful in actual combat, but in the darkness of night, they created a very strong sense of intimidation, as nearly everyone was illuminated by these red lights.
"Who goes there?" a commanding voice came from the island.
On the leading speedboat, Dean Ye Teng slowly stood up, allowing a red light to shine on his forehead: "Dean Ye Teng from the Royal Research Institute, I have come to visit Vice General Kuo Fei, as well as the Vice Chairman Gu Cun of the Black Dragon Society!"
The searchlight moved towards Dean Ye Teng, his face clearly visible.
The faces of the people around him were also clearly visible.
Whether or not there was facial recognition connected to the searchlights behind, he could withstand the scrutiny, indeed it was him.
On the rocks at the edge of the island, a silhouette appeared: "So, it’s Dean Ye Teng. May I inquire about the purpose of your visit at this late hour?"
"I’ve already said, I want to have a face-to-face conversation with Vice General Kuo Fei and Chairman Gu Cun!" With the high-stakes negotiation at hand, Dean Ye Teng naturally wouldn’t reveal his intentions so easily.
"Please, Dean!"
Below the water in front, it seemed that a gate barrier was pulled back, and two ripples rolled up on the surface...
The speedboat started up and sped towards the island.
No one noticed that two more people had joined underneath the two speedboats.
The speedboat docked, the group went ashore, and soldiers guarded the seaside, but the lights were extinguished.
Suddenly, two soldiers collapsed at the same time.
The next moment, their bodies were dragged into the bushes, and there was a faint sound of clothes being changed. Moments later, the two soldiers looked at each other and smiled, crawling into the bushes above, and quickly arrived in front of the island’s council building.
Inside the council building, Vice General Kuo Fei and Vice Chairman Gu Cun were receiving guests.
Kuo Fei was not fat, in fact, he was somewhat lean.
Gu Cun was not alone; behind him followed more than a dozen experts from the Black Dragon Society.
There were no tea rooms, only factions.
In the vast hall, with three large lamps illuminating the room brightly, the two parties approached each other from the east and west.
The people on both sides were all experts, and the unique oppressive feeling that only masters could sense made this spacious hall seem somewhat crowded.
"Vice General Kuo Fei, Chairman Gu Cun!" Dean Ye Teng stepped forward: "I have come here tonight to meet Huang Chengwang from Daxia; may I ask for him to be brought out?"
Both Kuo Fei and Gu Cun were shocked...
Kuo Fei said, "Meet Huang Chengwang? Why?"
"Because an hour ago, he came to our Royal Research Institute, killed Mr. Dubian, and in addition killed eight defense personnel, stealing our heavily guarded Purple magic Stone!"
"What?" Kuo Fei and all those around him were shocked...
Even the soldier by the door was startled; her gaze turned to the other soldier, full of disbelief...
She was Chang Ye!
The person she was looking at was Lin Xiaosu!
Stole the Purple magic Stone?
Where’s the stone?
No! Impossible!
He didn’t have the Purple magic Stone on him at all.
The dean is lying!
Why lie?
There can only be one reason: the Royal Research Institute wanted to take this opportunity to close off other people’s chances at the Purple magic Stone, while it was in their hands, the Black Dragon Society wanted it, now he directly tells the opponent, the Purple magic Stone was stolen, and it was stolen by your people, how can others come to me for the Purple magic Stone?
What a sly fox, even turning a sudden crisis into a chip favorable to himself.
Quite an eye-opener!
Vice General Kuo Fei said, "That’s absolutely impossible! Huang Chengwang... Huang Chengwang has been in the VIP room since yesterday and has not left the island."
Gu Cun’s face changed drastically, and he stepped forward: "Dean Ye Teng, is it true that the Purple magic Stone was stolen?"
Both of their expressions were so genuine, but no matter how genuine their performances were, it wasn’t enough to explain everything, because how many normal people are there amongst those mixed with the Black Dragon Society, associated with the Black Dragon Society?
Each one’s acting skills are top-notch.
Dean Ye Teng spoke coldly: "Since Huang Chengwang is still in the VIP room, why not invite him out to meet face to face?"
Kuo Fei turned around: "Someone fetch Huang Chengwang here!"
Behind him, two soldiers disappeared in a blur, their movement techniques mysterious and extraordinary.
The atmosphere in the room began to grow tense...
Soon, an old man with graying hair entered from another door, his complexion showing a mix of suspicion, fear, and confusion...
