Fortunately, Mr. Jin did not want to offend the Shen family, Lu family disciples, as well as children who worked in Sky Pillar Corporation and Universe Corporation.

After he sized them up once, like a lion out on a hunt, he shifted his gaze away.

Everyone sighed in relief. It was only then that they realized that their backs were covered in cold sweat, and their shirts stuck to their bodies.

Even Lu Siya did not say anything to Meng Chao. She followed Shen Yupeng and his group out of Golden Tooth Lair.

Once they got through the market and returned to the wide road, the air suddenly felt much fresher, and Meng Chao felt as if he had stepped into another world.

Shen Yupeng shoved Small Insect into an airtight van. Then, he told Meng Chao that he would immediately look for a place to interrogate him so that he could get the crucial clues and be able to carry out an operation against the instigator from Heavenly Works Machines.

If everything went smoothly, he would contact Meng Chao before midnight. After all, Meng Chao was the one who discovered the super Giant Sandworm and Small Insect. He could be considered as one of the people involved in the case. Based on procedures, they had to provide information to fill him in on the situation.

Shen Yupeng hoped that there would be no need to bother the youth with anything more.

Meng Chao agreed to it readily. He asked Shen Yupeng to contact him at any time he wanted and agreed that he wanted to get the newest information as soon as possible.

After he sent Shen Yupeng away, he turned his head around and noticed that Lu Siya was still glaring at him.

Meng Chao rubbed his nose.

Lu Siya had always given him the feeling that she was incredibly domineering and always had victory in her grasp.

Even when she was betrayed by Lin Chuan, she was more sad than angry.

He had never seen her this angry before.

Meng Chao thought about it and asked tentatively, “Looks like we can’t be friends anymore, huh?”

“At least you know your place,” Lu Siya said coldly.

“Got it. I’ll disappear now.” Meng Chao turned around and took two steps forward before he suddenly thought of something. He turned around and asked, “Just to be sure, if I really have supper later with Shen Yupeng and hear something really shocking or a new development in the case, I don’t need to tell you about it, right? After all, we lied to each other, so no matter what else I say, you won’t believe me, right?”

“Wait.” Lu Siya narrowed her eyes. “Now that Shen Yupeng has Small Insect in his hands, with his abilities, he will definitely be able to find the instigator hiding in Heavenly Works Machines in less than twenty-four hours. Even if you manage to hear any shocking news, it’ll be too late. What’s the point even if you tell me?”

“Don’t say that. Do you remember my theory when we first examined the corpses?” Meng Chao asked calmly. “I have a feeling that the case of murderous pets in Blessed Paradise is actually two cases. The first case is Jin Yongqiang from Heavenly Works Machines secretly getting his hands on mutated rabies and discreetly injecting it into the pets in his residential area so that they would go berserk and defame Spirit Creations Creatures. This case has basically been solved.

“The problem is, how did Jin Yongqiang end up dead, and why did his pet also have mutated rabies? Wasn’t that pet a tool he bought to get closer to his neighbors? There was no reason for him to harm himself. If the mastermind in Heavenly Works Machines wanted to silence him, there was no need to choose this moment and this method to kill him, either.

“Besides, based on the information I obtained from the lacerations I saw on Jin Yongqiang’s spine, the clues all point to another culprit, which is probably even more dangerous than Jin Yongqiang.

“The one who planned the first case is definitely someone from Heavenly Works Machines. Since he’s a superhuman criminal, it’s only logical that we should hand this case to the Supernatural Tower and adjudicator court. That’s why I went to Shen Yupeng and told him everything.

“But my instincts are telling me that the second case is related to a really cunning and smart monster. It’s the work of the abnormal beast research department, and I’m more inclined to work on this together with you.

“You can choose whether to believe me or not. Perhaps the second case is the real shocker, and it might be the best stepping stone for you to climb up the ranks of the abnormal beast research department. Compared to finding the person who killed Jin Yongqiang, Heavenly Works Machines is a really small fish.”

Meng Chao did not lie to Lu Siya this time.

If the memories from his previous life were correct, the case was related to a Supernatural Entity, and the value of this fish was definitely much higher than of the Heavenly Works Machines case

Lu Siya was still angry. She snorted coldly but did not say anything.

“Alright. Looks like the trust between us is completely gone.” Meng Chao shrugged. “Then, I will just have to force myself to work with Shen Yupeng to find the truth.”

Before his voice could fade away, he turned around to leave.

He left resolutely. His footsteps were like the wind, and in the blink of an eye, he was already dozens of meters away.

Lu Siya caught up to him.

The biggest difference between her and normal rich ladies was that she had a determined heart.

In just five seconds, she had managed to compose herself. Once again, she started walking in her sneakers as if she was walking on high heels.

“You promise that you will tell me everything that Shen Yupeng said?” She seemed to have forgotten all that had happened just now.
