Chapter 224: Chapter 224 R20 Virus_1

Duan Hong cracked a slight smile, saying nothing and showed no embarrassment about Zhang Xian touching her.

She had already lost her virginity to him in a rented room, so what was the big deal about him touching her? It’s he who always withdrew his hand inexplicably.

"Damn, Tao Jinbao actually set up a research lab. It’s clear that the guy has big ambitions. Zhu’s Pharmaceuticals was definitely his doing. Who knows, his next target might be Song Yuzhe, and he’ll strive to monopolize the pharmaceutical industry in Yantai, expanding to other provinces next." Zhang Xian wiped his nose and said, "He Zheng, hurry on. Don’t let that bastard Tao Jinbao get there before us."

He Zheng nodded slightly, stepping hard on the gas.

A BMW is a BMW after all. Even on a bumpy and potholed dirt road, it still runs surprisingly smooth.

The three vans behind them faced some difficulties, as they had to speed up to keep up with the accelerating BMW, facing bumps all along the way.

"Damn... What the hell kind of road is this?"

"Hell, I’m about to throw up yesterday’s meal. Can we stop with the bouncing?"

"Shit, with this kind of road, we’ll attain enlightenment in no time!"

Sitting in the heavily shaking van, the underlings began cursing. However, they did not dare to blame He Zheng, only cursing the uneven road.

"Elder Sister Hong, how much further is it?"

Zhang Xian looked out the window and realized that they were already in the mountains. He turned his head and asked, "Can we reach it within half an hour?"

Duan Hong shook her head and said, "I’ve only been here once, and I don’t know how much further it is. However, there aren’t many forks on the way to the research lab, and although I remember the general direction, I don’t remember the specifics."

"We won’t be lost, right?" Zhang Xian was worried.

Duan Hong shook her head and said, "I’m not sure either. Let’s keep going. There aren’t many roads here."

Zhang Xian cupped his forehead, at a loss. If there was enough time, he wouldn’t worry. But he was afraid of Tao Jinbao getting there first and destroying all the evidence.

Suddenly, He Zheng furrowed his brows and said, "Brother Xian, it seems like Tao Jinbao got in front of us. There are two wide fresh tire tracks on this road. Although I can’t tell what kind of car they belong to, I’m sure it’s a high-end vehicle. Ordinary cars wouldn’t produce such wide tracks. If it really is Tao Jinbao, we can just follow these tire tracks."

"Okay, just follow the tire tracks and don’t let Tao Jinbao get too far ahead." Zhang Xian leaned out to take a look, then turned to Duan Hong and said, "Elder Sister Hong, remind us if we are going the wrong way."

Duan Hong nodded and said, "Okay, no problem. You should just follow this road, we shouldn’t be going the wrong way."

...

Inside the barren mountains of Yantai City, there is a laboratory.

The lab is built inside a mountain, not too big, about four hundred square meters. The actual research room is less than fifty square meters.

At this moment, three middle-aged men in white lab coats are busy inside the lab, one looking at a microscope, one mixing test tubes, and the other making notes.

"Click..."

Suddenly, the lab door was opened, and a middle-aged man walked in.

"Boss? How come you’re here today?"

The three researchers turned their heads curiously, surprised when they saw who came.

Tao Jinbao gasped for breath and said, "Something has happened. All of you rush and bring out all the samples and data related to R20. Don’t miss a single bit."

"What?" a middle-aged man asked.

Tao Jinbao said, "My lab is about to be exposed. If it is found out that the poison in Zhu’s Pharmaceuticals was our doing, we are screwed. We might have to destroy the R20 samples."

Hearing this, the faces of the three middle-aged men changed slightly and looked somewhat upset.

One of the younger ones asked, "Boss, R20 is the result of more than a year of our research. To suddenly destroy it now seems a little inappropriate, doesn’t it?"

Tao Jinbao said angrily, "For fucking sake, do you want your life or your research results? And if you guys remember the data, destroying the samples shouldn’t have a significant impact, right?"

"Boss, this... The clients are going to have a hard time accepting this!" The middle-aged man said, "Last time, they specifically asked to change the R20 sample."

"This is none of your concern, I’ll take the blame, and it’s still unsure whether we need to destroy them or not." Tao Jinbao said.

Suddenly, a cell phone started ringing loudly.

Without even looking, Tao Jinbao answered, "Who is it? Who the hell is making a call this time?"

"What? Do I have to pick a time to call you?"

"Uh ... is ... is it Mr. Jin? I’m sorry, I thought it was something from the company." Tao Jinbao was stunned, his face changed drastically as he quickly chuckled.

He didn’t know who was on the phone, but the power behind them was incredibly terrifying, so he did not dare to be impudent.

"How’s the research on R20 coming along? The sample you gave me last time wasn’t very good. You need to make some more improvements, try to make its presence as invisible as possible, make it perfect."

"This..." Tao Jinbao said: "Mr. Jin, something’s happened here, I might not be able to get you the R20 sample."

"What’s going on?" The voice on the phone instantly turned colder, deep and chilling.

Tao Jinbao shuddered, saying, "Mr. Jin, I’ve released the R20 last time, and someone found out. Now my lab might be exposed, I may have to destroy the samples."

"What a waste, how could it be discovered?"

Tao Jinbao admitted, "It... it... was my mistake. But I’ll handle this, I might still be able to save the samples."

"It’s not a might, it’s a must, otherwise, you know what the consequences are."

"I... I’ll do my best." Tao Jinbao nodded, and after hanging up the phone, he quickly instructed his three researchers, then hurried out to gather some people.

This lab was his secret and his most valued place. So much so that he had made significant investments here.

...

On the mountain road, four cars were speeding along. A white BMW was leading the way, followed by three vans. They rushed along, stirring up a cloud of dust.

After a while, He Zheng suddenly said, "Brother Xian, look ahead, there’s a Mercedes parked."

Zhang Xian had already spotted it. He turned to look at Duan Hong and asked, "Elder Sister Hong, is this the location of Tao Jinbao’s lab?"

"Yes, that’s right, there’re no trees here, I had nowhere to hide last time." Duan Hong nodded.

Zhang Xian smirked, "He Zheng, drive on."

He Zheng nodded, and quickly parked the BMW next to the Mercedes. The three vans behind then hemmed in the Mercedes from the front, back, and one side along with the BMW.

"Zhang Xian, the lab is inside that cave." Duan Hong pointed to an opening above.

"Let’s go and see." Zhang Xian moved towards it.

The cave wasn’t very large, just about two meters in height and five meters in width. Although the surface wasn’t smooth, it was clear that it had been man-made and not a natural cave.

The deeper they went, the larger the cave was. But the light was extremely poor, as the cave extended into a slight curve, blocking the sunlight.

"Eh? Why isn’t there a door here?" He Zheng looked puzzled.

At this point, they had reached the end of the cave, but there was no sign of a door leading to the lab.

Zhang Xian frowned, slightly perplexed.

Duan Hong looked around and said, "It definitely was here when I came last time, and the car parked outside belongs to Tao Jinbao. The lab wouldn’t have moved, so why isn’t there a door?"

At first glance, Zhang Xian noticed there was indeed no door, so he used his intuition to check again, and soon he noticed something odd.

It turned out that the cave wasn’t without a door, it was just that the door was camouflaged to look exactly like the surrounding rock wall and was irregularly shaped. Any ordinary person coming into the cave, pointing a flashlight around and seeing nothing, wouldn’t be interested in investigating further. Even the more meticulous ones, if they noticed the crevices on the wall, wouldn’t think of it as a door.

"The door is here, and the switch is here." Zhang Xian walked over to a rock formation and pointed to a rock.

On closer inspection, you could make out a few clues. However, when inspected with intuition, things became crystal clear, and he could immediately notice the awkward elements.

"Is this a door? How does it open?" Duan Hong asked curiously.

"It’s a password lock." Zhang Xian removed the rock, revealing a small keypad underneath, the kind with both letters and numbers.

Duan Hong held the rock, licking her lips, "This design is quite good, people won’t notice that this rock can be taken off, it fits perfectly into the gap."

"Like it? Take it home!" Zhang Xian joked.

"I... What do I need this for?" Duan Hong rolled her eyes at Zhang Xian.

Zhang Xian wiped his nose, took the rock back from Duan Hong, and put it back in place. This was the place to input the password, he didn’t know the password, so taking off the rock was useless.

He Zheng stepped forward and asked, "Brother Xian, how are we going to get in? Even a locksmith can’t crack this damn door!"

Zhang Xian replied, "Indeed, this door is mechanical and can’t be pushed open by human force, it doesn’t have things like lock cylinder."

"Then how do we get in?" Duan Hong asked, "You said earlier that we’re running out of time? If we keep dawdling here, Tao Jinbao might destroy the evidence."

Zhang Xian walked up to the door and said, "You two move back, let me test the quality of this door. We don’t know the password, so we’ll have to force our way in."

Duan Hong and He Zheng looked at Zhang Xian in surprise as he suggested to blast the door open.

Is this guy bluffing? Or is he really bluffing? This door is obviously made of metal, and it’s not thin either. Can a person really force it open?

"Click..."

Suddenly, a piece of rock on the cave wall slid back.

Zhang Xian glanced with his intuition, his face changed slightly, he quickly turned around, grabbed Duan Hong, and hurriedly retreated, "Everyone retreat! Someone’s coming out, and they all have guns."

He Zheng and the others turned pale, they quickly retreated to the corner without a second word.

"Bang bang bang..."

Just then, the door opened and several middle-aged men armed with guns rushed out.
