Chapter 405 - Target Lock Down, Chase! (1/2)

Just in case, Meng Chao looked for another conference member and asked for another emblem.

Both emblems contained faint radioactive activity and both of them reacted to the bioreagent.

However, since Meng Chao had already mastered harvesting, he was able to tell that there were slight differences to the weight of the two emblems.

“When they created these two emblems, the ratio of the radioactive material and the biomaterial components was different.” He thought about it and said, “If that’s the case, the radioactive activity and pheromones they release will also be different in terms of strength and density.”

His mind raced, and he soon found the answer.

He got one of the emblems from a normal conference member, while the other was from a Project 101 transmigration expert.

With that, it was very easy to guess that the soul of the transmigration project had to have the most radioactive material and biomaterials added to his emblem. To the insects, Professor Lu Tianxing’s emblem would have given off the brightest light and released the densest pheromones.

This was the reason behind why the monsters were able to locate the project members and Professor Lu Tianxing!

“Who was in charge of making these emblems?” Meng Chao impatiently asked a few conference members.

The group looked at each other. Their faces were full of confusion and they did not know the answer.

“Big Sis Xiao!” Meng Chao was not discouraged. He immediately said, “She’s Zhao Feixuan’s wife, and Zhao Feixuan is one of the twelve committee members of Blue Home. She must know!”

Just as he expected, when they found Xiao Feixuan, who was about to fall asleep, she managed to give them the answer.

“They were provided by a friend of Old Zhao. His name is Zhou Tianshui,” Xiao Fanghua said. “Old Zhao was in charge of the conference affairs this time. He originally wanted to order a batch of name tags and give some USB drives away as a commemorative gift, but Zhou Tianshui said that he has a batch of pretty decent old metal with him—Oh, he has an old metal recycling business, by the way—and he can use it to create emblems in celebration of Project 101 gaining progressive results.

“Zhou Tianshui is a firm believer of the Home Party, and he is usually very passionate about the affairs of Blue Home, no matter how big or small they are. Old Zhou didn’t find anything strange about it, so he let him handle it.

“Three days ago, just as he promised, he brought a batch of very beautiful commemorative emblems. They’re even more beautiful than the Blue Home organization emblems. Old Zhao was very happy and even brought those commemorative emblems for me to see. That’s why I have a deep impression of them.”

“Zhou Tianshui?” Meng Chao shut his eyes and tried to recall him for three seconds. Then, an image of a fatty who always smiled and looked like Maitreya Buddha rose up in his mind.

He had met Zhou Tianshui a few times during Blue Home’s events.

The one that left behind the greatest impression was when Zhou Tianshui wore a long robe from Earth and got drunk. He recited a poem that had been passed down since ancient times, but due to carelessness, he tripped on the leg of a table and fell flat on his back, which tore open his long robe, which was a size too small for him already. Everyone snickered because of it.

As a person, Zhou Tianshui seemed harmless. He looked a little clumsy and silly.

He did not give off the radiance Lin Chuan, Gao Ye, and Zhao Feixuan had. Hence, when Meng Chao started investigating Blue Home, he had subconsciously overlooked Zhou Tianshui.

It was only at this moment that he realized that Zhou Tianshui was among the survivors who had been in the armory just now.

And the survivors in the armory were the group that had escorted Professor Lu Tianxing.

If the mole created the emblems and stuck to Professor Lu Tianxing like a shadow, then Lu Tianxing had to be that mole. There was no one else!

“We have to go back now! Zhou Tianxing should still be isolated in the medical camp!”

Meng Chao turned around and ran.

“That guy sure is audacious. He actually dared to lurk around among the survivors?”

Lu Siya clicked her tongue.

“His disguise is pretty perfect. If it weren’t for someone who has a really keen nose, great intelligence, and unfathomable wisdom, it would have been very hard for anyone to rat him out and catch his tail. So why shouldn’t he dare to stay?”

Meng Chao snorted coldly and said, “After all, if the abnormal beasts failed but he was still around, they might be able to launch a second attack.

“If Blue Home’s core was damaged, he would also have a chance to reach greater heights, such as replacing Zhao Feixuan as Blue Home’s committee member. He could then turn this lawful organization into a criminal one that will act in extreme ways and not shy away from violence. Like that, he would carry out the abnormal beasts’ goals to intensify the conflict in Dragon City!”

As they spoke, they rushed into the isolation area of the medical camp.

“Where is Zhou Tianshui?” Meng Chao looked around but did not see the man.

A survivor who was familiar with Meng Chao said, “Old Zhou’s screening results have come out. He’s not infected by the virus or the spores, so he’s boarding an ambulance with the other uninfected survivors and is going to be sent to the hospital in the downtown area.”

Meng Chao cussed and asked, “When did he leave?”

“Around two minutes ago? You came right after he left, so you just missed him,” the survivor said.

‘Then, we’ll still make it.’

Meng Chao asked Lu Siya to notify the hospital to immediately stop the ambulance Zhou Tianshui was on.

By then, this ambulance should have been at the borders of the battlefield.

To prevent stirring up Zhou Tianshui’s suspicions, he wanted her to say that they were going to add two other patients who had passed the examination.

In the meantime, he brought out a gel spray from his harvesting tool box and sprayed himself from head to toe, especially his hair, underarms, and other places where his body hair was thick.

Very soon, the hospital sent a reply and said that the ambulance was waiting for them two streets away.

Lu Siya also notified the Vulcan Commandos—the corporate armored squad from Sky Pillar Corporation—and the elite investigators from the abnormal beast research department.

Meng Chao was afraid of the problem going out of control the longer they waited, so he immediately rushed to the ambulance waiting for them.
