As an outstanding employee of the "Factory" second workshop, Dapeng was once commended for his work.
But these days, his condition is not good.
He often makes mistakes at work, and this morning he was even half an hour late.
The person who was supposed to cover for him for half an hour was grumbling, causing discontent among everyone.
However, Dapeng remained absent-minded.
Of course, as a worker, he agreed to the factory director's request and received twenty thousand yuan as "acting fees" to stage the scene of conversing with Xiaoli. Now he feels very uncomfortable about it.
Although the factory director assured him that Xiaoli was fine, just unconscious.
But actually... Xiaoli couldn't really be dead, right? If he knew what I did after he passed away, would he blame me?
I shouldn't have taken that twenty thousand yuan!
"Quick, listen! What's happening outside!"
Suddenly a worker shouted loudly, startling Dapeng out of his daze.
Sounds like firecrackers exploding outside, along with some screams.
"What's going on? Are the police here? I told you this isn't a good place. We're all going to get caught later. What a mess!"
Dapeng's assistant at the same workstation cursed.
"Although we were all deceived into coming here without knowing the situation, if this place is involved in drugs, each of us could get several years in jail."
The workers in the workshop were all very nervous. In fact, none of them were fools. The mysterious operations of the factory, coupled with its non-standard practices, had already given them a vague idea that the factory might be involved in shady activities!
But for the sake of profit, each of these workers kept quiet and continued working until the incident with the giant bugs occurred.
Some people couldn't bear this psychological pressure and decided to resign!
Northeastern Tiger wouldn't let these workers go until he achieved his goal. So, he found Dapeng in the middle of the night, coercing and enticing him, which led to the "phone call" incident the next day.
Now, it seems like there are gunshots outside again, and Dapeng feels restless.
"Listen to me, everyone!" he shouted, seemingly venting all the confusion of the past few days.
Everyone turned to look at this man, who was Xiaoli's best friend in the factory. Initially, everyone suspected whether Xiaoli was really dead, but Dapeng had confirmed it over the phone. However, now they were all unsure again.
"The person we talked to the past two days wasn't Xiaoli at all; it was all the director's instruction! I'm sorry, everyone!" Dapeng said, tears streaming down his face.
Crack, crack...
While the workers were in chaos, a fist-sized dark mosquito quietly crawled through the pipes into the workshop!
Jia Yan, inside the pipes, heard the commotion outside!
A fight had broken out in the workshop!
"This is even better. It makes it easier for me to do something in the chaos."
Jia Yan crawled faster towards the outside.
At the end of this side of the pipe, there was still an observation port. Jia Yan came here, quietly looked up, and peered outside.
This workshop was obviously much larger than the other side, and the workers were wearing protective suits, giving it a somewhat high-tech appearance.
But their crude language and unprofessional actions made them look more like a rural workshop.
There were about a dozen people in the workshop, and it seemed like there were some downstairs. Jia Yan saw that there was a full-on brawl going on in this workshop!
A group of people was beating someone who wasn't fighting back!
"Do they bully people like this even in the factory!" Jia Yan was astonished.
He didn't know the inside story, but he felt that this situation was more convenient for him.
"The smell in the air is so good. The taste of the purple-red liquid permeating here. I must have found the right place. But just by breathing the air here, I can feel something stirring in my body. Is it because of the large quantity of the purple-red liquid?"
"Or is it because there's something else here?"
Jia Yan's compound eyes lit up. He had always suspected that Northeastern Tiger must be hiding some secret, otherwise, how could he, a person who didn't seem to have expertise in medicine, casually produce so-called "antibacterial peptides"?
Because Jia Yan didn't know the benefits of these so-called "antibacterial peptides," which were actually the purple-red liquid, for humans. But for certain specific organisms, it was an excellent drug for genetic mutation!
Northeastern Tiger couldn't possibly research something of this level with the equipment and facilities he had seen so far. Or rather, Jia Yan doubted whether any organization in the world could produce such liquid. Otherwise, if it could cause biological mutations and reduce costs, even if it was used as food, it would change the entire world!
However, Northeastern Tiger hadn't mass-produced it, nor had he disclosed the existence of this liquid.
So, there was only one possibility: there were limitations to producing this substance!
As Jia Yan watched the workers outside fighting, he didn't waste any time. His primary task was still to find the whereabouts of the purple-red liquid!
He looked around, trying to sense which direction attracted him the most with its smell.
The mosquito's olfactory organ is the pair of slender antennae on its head. At this moment, Jia Yan's antennae moved, finally locking onto a direction!
"There, that's the most attractive to me!"
Jia Yan's compound eyes lit up. Sensing that there was something deeply rooted in the central giant boiler, which seemed to extend underground to the first floor, that attracted him the most.
He spread his wings and flew directly towards it!
"Mosquito... mosquito..."
Seeing Jia Yan flying in the air, Dapeng, who was being attacked by the workers, raised his hand and pointed at the giant mosquito.
"Damn what mosquito!" Some workers actually saw Jia Yan too, but for them, mutant organisms were already commonplace. Although they usually chased after them, now, in their anger, they would definitely beat up Dapeng first!
"You bastard, you're trying to kill us! If I had left a few days earlier, what would I do now that the police are coming! How am I supposed to handle this!"
While fighting, the workers were also trying to reason. This fighting style was also new to Jia Yan.
"But watching the commotion isn't my top priority. My first task is still to find the whereabouts of the purple-red liquid!"
Jia Yan looked around, feeling which direction emitted the strongest scent that attracted him.
The mosquito's olfactory organ is the pair of slender antennae on its head. At this moment, Jia Yan's antennae moved, and he finally locked onto a direction!
"There, that's the most attractive to me!"
Jia Yan's compound eyes lit up. Sensing that there was something deeply rooted in the central giant boiler, which seemed to extend underground to the first floor, that attracted him the most.
He spread his wings and flew directly towards it!
"Bang!"
"Bang bang!"
"Bang bang bang!!"
When Jia Yan saw the drops of dark liquid dripping down!
He felt his tubular heart, shaped like a mosquito
's, suddenly pounding violently!
The voice in his heart was...
Desire!
Extreme, extreme desire!
The purple-red liquid might no longer be able to cause a third mutation, but this black liquid definitely could!
What is it?!
As this question arose.
Jia Yan found himself instinctively rushing towards the pool of black liquid at his fastest flying speed!
