Chapter 728 (2/2)
“Are you sure?” While holding the phone, Tang Xiu asked with eyes lit up.
Mouse’s voice came from the phone, “I’m absolutely sure, Boss. I spent quite a lot of money to buy the information from a senior executive of the Brain Assembly Biotech. Do you wanna know how much I spent? 6 million! That greedy bastard actually demanded 6 million yuan!!!”
“Let alone 6 million, even 60 million is still worth the news,” said Tang Xiu in a deep voice. “Anyways, I’ll immediately send someone to contact you. You’ll be in charge of directing them to keep an eye on Xie Zhiqiang for me. Call me at once when he makes contact with those SOE people.”
“Are you not going to come personally, Boss?” Asked Mouse. “This is a huge deal!”
“I’m in Changxi right now, and it will take one hour to get back,” said Tang Xiu. “Just tell me the address and I’ll find you when I get there.”
“Got it…”
After hanging up, Tang Xiu looked at the enthusiastic Han Qingwu and said, “There’s an urgent matter that I need to hurry back to Shanghai to. I’m afraid I can’t accompany your boating. Han Qingwu, are you going to go back with me or will you go back later?”
“Since you’re going back, then I’ll go with you,” said Han Qingwu without thinking.
“What is this important matter that you have to rush back so urgently, Tang Xiu?” Asked Yu Hong with a dissatisfied expression. “It’s not easy for Qingwu to visit Changxi, and even I asked for leave for this occasion. Why don’t you accompany her to have some fun here? Qingwu, Tang Xiu may have things to tend to, so just let him rush back first, do you think that I can’t accompany you?”
“About this…” Han Qingwu looked a bit hesitating.
“That’s right. What Yu Hong said is true, you should stay here and have some fun! Loosening and relaxing your mood so you can do your activities better later,” said Tang Xiu.
Han Qingwu still hesitated, before she eventually agreed. After all, her good sister had specially asked for a leave just to accompany her. She would hurt her if she were to leave!
At 16:00.
Tang Xiu, Li Laoshan, and Chu Xuecheng had already arrived at Shanghai. On the way there, Tang Xiu inquired clearly the purpose of the two for visiting Shanghai. It was to discuss some business deals, and Tang Xiu agreed to gather with them two days later before rushing to the address Mouse gave him.
Jingning District, Kangsha Pharmaceuticals.
The place had a good environment and strategic location and boasted a large area. Tang Xiu learned from the intel that this small company was a subsidiary of the Brain Assembly Biotech and was also where its pharmaceutical factory was located; Xie Zhiqiang had even bought the land as well.
“So, how was it? Is Xie Zhiqiang inside?”
After catching sight of Mouse, who was acting furtively like a thief, Tang Xiu asked the fella directly.
Mouse handed over a cigarette and personally lit it up for Tang Xiu, and then said, “He has been inside for more than four hours, and has yet to come out. Our men have been keeping an eye on the entire Kangsha Pharmaceuticals, so he’s definitely still inside. He has a secret lab there according to that sky-high price information I bought.”
“What about those SOE people? Is there any movement?” Asked Tang Xiu again.
“Yeah, a total of two groups have been here in these four hours. One of them is from that SOE company, consisting of four or five people. Their identities, however, are still a mystery. I’ve already assigned some men to investigate them, but there’s no result as of yet.”
Tang Xiu knitted his brows and said, “What you mean is, the other group is not from SOE?”
“They should not be,” said Mouse. “I’ve investigated all those from SOE who have sneaked into Shanghai, so I’m sure this group is not one of them. I think it’s highly likely this group is also after the genetic particles. Since I can buy a senior executive of the Brain Assembly Biotech, it is very likely that some other forces are keeping an eye on this company to investigate the existence of this genetic particle.”
“What you said makes sense.” Tang Xiu nodded. “Anyways, let’s not act rashly. We’ll first observe the reactions from the other forces. That’s right, did those SOE people and the other groups notice our men?”
“I guarantee you that what I’ve secretly arranged can never be found out,” said Mouse with a smile.
“Alright, keep an eye on this place, regardless of whether they are from the SOE, Xie Zhiqiang, or from other forces.” Tang Xiu nodded. “This gene particle is not your ordinary stuff, and regardless of which force obtains it, I’m afraid they will be able to train a huge number of masters in a very short time. Not to mention that if this gene particle were to spread widely, it will definitely affect the power constellation around the world. I don’t want to see such a situation.”
Mouse understood Tang Xiu’s intention, as he also knew the power of this so-called gene particle. According to the boasting of the bought Brain Assembly Biotech’s senior executive, obtaining the gene particle was tantamount to getting a large number of armed forces, which was equal to having more control, power, and wealth.
“That’s right. We have yet to notice anyone from the military. They just… mysteriously disappeared.”
Tang Xiu stared blankly, before frowning and saying, “Is there a chance that one of the other groups who came here is from the military?”
“Unlikely.” Mouse shook his head.
“Then check it out. Investigate anyone who has the power to spy on the gene particle, including those from the military,” ordered Tang Xiu.
“Got it!” Mouse nodded.
Tang Xiu did not stay there. After hopping on the car, he looked at Mo Awu, who was sitting on the driver seat, and directly ordered, “Send some men to bring two sets of night suits. We’re going to move tonight.”
