Chapter 104: Chapter 104: Game

Hearing this, Liang Zhen’s expression also turned solemn, "Professor Yun, now is not the time to discuss how they came to know about this information. What I want to know is, just how important is this information?"

Yun Yang said in a deep voice, "It can be said that, if this research is confirmed, it would mean the opening of a new era in the history of human evolution!"

"Hiss!" Liang Zhen and Bai Feifei couldn’t help but inhale sharply. If what Yun Yang said was true, then this matter was already beyond Liang Zhen and their capabilities to handle!

"Now I must immediately contact the higher-ups!" Liang Zhen said seriously, "Professor Yun, although it may sound insensitive, I still have to say it! This information absolutely cannot fall into the opponents’ hands right now!"

"But what about Yun Hanrui?" Bai Feifei couldn’t help but ask, "Isn’t our most pressing matter to rescue Yun Hanrui?"

Liang Zhen said gravely, "Don’t worry, as long as the other side doesn’t get the information, Miss Yun is absolutely safe! However, we can’t pin all our hopes on the opponent, so I must report this immediately!"

Nobody noticed the thrill that flashed across Ling Feng’s face at this moment!

"Genetic enhancement research?" Ling Feng clenched his fists secretly; he couldn’t forget that day in the icy snow when, just as his consciousness was about to fade away, his father took an unknown syringe and injected some medicine into his body.

"Child, I ultimately opened Pandora’s Box. Whether you can defeat this trial or not, it’s all up to fate now! I owe you and your mother in this lifetime, if there’s a next life, I hope to make up for my regrets..."

When Ling Feng woke up again, his father had already become an ice sculpture, while his body seemed to course with endless strength!

Could it be that what father injected into me back then was the genetic enhancement serum? Ling Feng fell deep into contemplation.

Ten minutes later, Liang Zhen returned with a serious face, "Professor Yun, I have already reported the situation to the higher-ups. You must not compromise with the criminals now. We have already sent out our finest warriors to look for Miss Yun, ensuring her safety!"

"As for that information, keep it safe now. You absolutely cannot let others know its location, not even us!" Liang Zhen said.

Suddenly, the phone on the table rang, making the atmosphere freeze in an instant.

Everyone exchanged glances. If they had not known about the things Professor Yun spoke of, Liang Zhen would have had the confidence to negotiate with the criminals, but now... given the gravity of the situation, he too was getting nervous.

At this moment, Ling Feng reached out to take the call, "Who are you!"

"Eh? A strange voice? It seems Yun Yang really didn’t give up and actually sought the police?" A hoarse voice came through the phone, irritating to the listener.

Ling Feng spoke earnestly, "I am Uncle Yun’s nephew. I already know your demands. I can agree to them, but you must not harm a single hair on Yun Hanrui’s head, otherwise, whether you flee to the heavens or earth, I will not let you off!"

"Hehe, don’t worry. Although Miss Yun is a natural beauty that we all long for, as long as you cooperate obediently, I promise not to harm Miss Yun! Of course, if you call the police... well, go ahead and call them. Don’t expect the police to be of much help!"

The contempt in the criminal’s voice infuriated Bai Feifei! Weren’t they just a bunch of criminals who couldn’t show their faces in public? Why so arrogant?

"We have some time now, how about we play a little game?" The criminal continued, "The name of the game is Hide and Seek. I’ll give you some clues, and if you can find us through the clues, then we will concede. If not, then you’d better obediently hand over the documents, how about that?"

"Deal!" Ling Feng said firmly, "I actually want to see how courageous you really are!"

"Hehe, not bad. I like the sound of your angry voice!" the criminal laughed and continued, "Alright, I’ll tell you our current location. Here, we are filled with the power of moonlight! The radiance of the Blood Moon intoxicates like a savory delight!"

"Alright, I’m giving you one hour. I hope we can truly meet in one hour!" After these words, the criminal hung up the phone.

"Have we located the signal source?" Liang Zhen asked the technician beside him urgently.

The technician grimaced and shook his head, "No, the signal is encrypted, with our current capabilities we can’t crack it!"

"So we can only be led by the nose by the criminals? Moreover, what kind of bullshit clue did he mention!" Bai Feifei said, somewhat irritated.

"A clue?" Ling Feng, looking out the window and seeing the half-moon outside, fell into contemplation.

...

In a hidden room, Yun Hanrui woke up to find her body weak, unable to muster any strength.

Yun Hanrui sat up, looking around warily at her surroundings.

She was lying on a bed, with a dim light bulb overhead.

"Am I kidnapped?" Looking around, a sense of dread washed over Yun Hanrui, and she began to panic.

With a creak, the door opened, and a cloaked man entered: "Ah, our honored guest has finally awakened! Delighted to see you, beautiful Eastern Lady!"

Yun Hanrui shrank back, "Who are you? Why have you captured me?"

"No no, we didn’t capture, we invited you as a guest!" the cloaked man’s voice had a hint of mirth: "You are our most important guest, how could we possibly capture you?"

"A guest?" Yun Hanrui said coldly, "Skip the nonsense, who are you people, what is your purpose! How are my companions now?"

The cloaked man sat on a chair nearby: "You ask too many questions, a woman’s curiosity is not always a good thing! As for your companions... I think if you knew the truth, would you still care about them?"

As he spoke, the cloaked man clapped his hands, and several masked men brought in Sun Xiaofei and Sun Ding.

"President, are you alright?" Sun Xiaofei’s face was full of horror, and she rushed to Yun Hanrui, her body trembling.

Sun Ding, on the other hand, had a complex expression. He sighed after a long while and stood aside.

"I’m fine!" Yun Hanrui reassured softly.

After looking at Sun Ding, Yun Hanrui said with a tone of disappointment, "Master Sun, I think I need an answer! Why did you do this?"

Sun Ding’s body trembled, with a tone full of guilt, "I’m... I’m sorry, President! I’ve wronged you, but I... I had to do it!"

A trace of disappointment flashed in Yun Hanrui’s eyes: "Master Sun, if I remember correctly, seven years ago you applied as an administrative driver, and at that time, you had just been caught for drunk driving, with points deducted, right?"

"Yes!" Sun Ding said, his head lowered: "At that time, I didn’t think I would be able to join Chaoyang Biotech!"

"Then do you know? After your interview, you called home. You didn’t complain on the phone, but instead told your child in an indulgent tone, ’Daddy will bring you a gift when he comes home!’ And it was this sentence that made me plead with my father to hire you into the company!"

The guilt on Sun Ding’s face grew deeper: "I’ve let Miss Yun down, I’m not a human being!"
