Chapter 179: Packing Up
"Was this a mission from a month ago?" Han Jiaojiao said in surprise after seeing the date marked on it.
Lu Changyuan nodded, "I have always kept a record of the missions issued by the base each day. A month ago, the base discovered a mutant pig with very strong self-healing abilities at the North Suburban Farm. The researchers at the Research Institute suspected it possessed an enhanced Self-Healing Ability, so they issued this mission to acquire it alive for research. At that time, I wanted the Crystal Core from inside the mutant pig, so I had Xiao Jian take on this mission."
Lu Changyuan paused then continued, "But unexpectedly, the mission was annulled the next day. A month ago, the matter of the Crystal Core had not yet been exposed, and normally people wouldn’t choose such a tough challenge. I found it strange for quite a while until Qin Wenhao arrived at Beicheng later, and as for Long Yueze, no one knows exactly which day he came to the base..."
It seemed Han Jiaojiao understood, "...are you suggesting that Long Yueze had actually arrived earlier? He saw the mission about the mutant pig and took action first, using the mutant pig for his experiments?"
Lu Changyuan nodded affirmatively, "Don’t you all think this is too much of a coincidence? A mutant pig with superpowers disappears, and then there’s suddenly a half-human, half-pig monster."
Han Yi pondered for a moment, then said, "Let’s not publicize this issue for now, and keep the video for the time being."
Regardless of whether Long Yueze was the one leading this experiment, he surely wouldn’t want this to be exposed, and since leaving Beicheng was the primary concern for Han Yi and the others at the moment, there was no need to stir up more troubles over this.
However, no matter what, this incident had alerted them – one must be wary of Long Yueze.
Yan Xiao sauntered in casually, surveyed the room, and said, "What’s wrong with everyone, why do you all look so gloomy... Han bro, our stuff is all packed, we can leave anytime!"
Han Yi closed the laptop, "Organize some of the essentials for the road, and go have Xiao Jian bring the vehicle over, then load it up."
