Chapter 306 Nothing Gained

However, although there are official records, there isn't much actually usable information.

“I’ve made special arrangements.” Shi Min said in a deep voice after looking at it, pointing to a few indicators, “Logically, the scale of the laboratory construction should be specified, but these places are all blank.”

In a slightly more formal setting, there would be clear notes, but there aren't any here.

The most likely explanation is that they were paid a sum of money to keep quiet, and there were no government officials conducting regular checks; there were only a few brief and inconsequential descriptions.

Clearly, both sides were aware that such scientific laboratories might have irregularities.

This is almost a well-known unspoken rule.

Development inevitably leads to pollution, and the authorities are unlikely to let such a lucrative opportunity slip by.

It can provide political achievements and employment, at the cost of only a small part of the environment of planet C14.

It's likely that the government has no idea what kind of experiments were conducted on this group of people.

"What happened to the official in charge of this matter?" Pei Zhiyi asked.

Lu Yanxu continued, "I wonder if they're still around after this beast tide."

He said this in two ways. One is the literal meaning: he died because of the unexpected beast tide.

Another reason is that they were deliberately silenced during this beast tide.

It's not impossible, after all, in the early stages of the beast tide, no one would pay attention to such an official.

Everyone was busy escaping for their lives; no one cared about anything else.

"Send it to Colonel Han's people for confirmation." Gu Enling walked over, took a picture, and immediately headed towards the Alpha officer under Colonel Han, with whom they had just exchanged contact information.

“Let’s look around some more, maybe we can find something,” Lu Yanxu said. “We can now roughly pinpoint the time to a previous period, or even the same period.”

Several people agreed with this statement and continued to browse through the archives.

This time it wasn't as fast as before; I flipped through nearly a hundred books without finding anything.

Pei Zhiyi glanced at the information on water conservancy next to her.

She didn't know why she felt there was a good chance of finding something here; this intuition seemed completely illogical.

It was as if she had been guided by fate on several occasions.

Finally, Pei Zhiyi put down the records she had already finished reading and went to check the water conservancy category.

The massive and unfamiliar data, along with all sorts of tiny annotations, made one frown.

After searching for nearly an hour, Pei Zhiyi finally found what she was looking for.

“Lu Yanxu, I’ve made a new discovery.” Pei Zhiyi looked up and met Lu Yanxu’s gaze. Lu Yanxu, who was standing next to her, was also looking through a notebook. The serious expression on her face immediately turned into a smile.

Lu Yanxu peered over and saw that the location of the water conservancy project was exactly the spot Pei Zhiyi had just pointed out.

He examined the contents carefully and, sure enough, saw the familiar words "laboratory" again.

This was even further back, almost eight years ago.

"Take it out, we'll go take a look in a bit."

However, nothing was discovered after that, since laboratories can't be built one after another like cabbages.

This was already considered a major discovery, and by the time Pei Zhiyi and the others went to meet with Zuo Xuetong, they already had a plan in mind.

Zuo Xuetong is an Alpha officer under Colonel Han.

They had clearly gained something, and their expressions were no longer as tense as they had been at the beginning.

"I see you've uncovered quite a few clues." Zuo Xuetong approached politely. He hadn't dealt with Pei Zhiyi and her group before, but he had heard about their activities.

If he were to engage in a one-on-one battle of mental strength with Pei Zhiyi, he would definitely suffer a great loss.

Not to mention the other four Alphas who also come from good families.

"I've already had someone investigate that officer." Zuo Xuetong made the arrangements as soon as Gu Enling's photo was sent over; now it's time to act quickly.

Shi Min, as the team leader, was in charge of these negotiations. "We also discovered a place that appears to be a laboratory, and we want to search it ourselves."

If it were just a simple search, it certainly wouldn't be described that way.

Zuo Xuetong looked at Shi Min: "Alone?"

Shi Min paused for a moment: "I hope you will conduct another investigation after we have completed our own investigation."

"This is just our guess."

They're all shrewd people; Zuo Xuetong wouldn't have investigated Shi Min and his group unless he was 90% certain.

This is definitely not in compliance with regulations, but Zuo Xuetong and his team do not know the address of this laboratory.

"We already have one lab to show for it," Zuo Xuetong pondered for a moment, then offered a favor: "Okay, you go ahead. My people are waiting outside. Contact us as soon as you're done with your investigation."

Of course there is no problem.

Seeing that Shi Min agreed, Zuo Xuetong selected two Alphas to follow behind them.

Emerging from the official archives, the group boarded their mechs and sped off.

We arrived at our destination in less than ten minutes.

This is a laboratory right next to the sea; you only need to walk less than 500 meters to the west to reach the sea.

They have a fairly precise landmark, so finding the entrance isn't difficult.

The laboratory is neither particularly high-profile nor low-profile; it is clearly marked as a water conservancy research institution, and the exterior building does not look particularly special.

It's clear that the exterior has been abandoned for a long time.

Walking through every office inside, almost all of them were covered with a thick layer of dust.

It was completely deserted.

Pei Zhiyi and the others did not stop the people sent by Zuo Xuetong.

Everything was laid out before my eyes.

As Pei Zhiyi walked, she used her probing spiritual power to spread out in all directions, starting their investigation from the top level.

Everything appeared normal.

There was nothing unusual about the ground they were exploring.

Pei Zhiyi and Lu Yanxu exchanged a glance.

However, Pei Zhiyi still felt something was wrong. She trusted her intuition, because it had saved her from several deadly situations.

Even if this wasn't a dead end, the fact that she could sense something different was enough to prove that there would be a major discovery here.

Not only them, but even the two Alphas sent by Zuo Xuetong were carefully investigating.

Walking from the upper floors to the basement parking lot, I found almost nothing.

"Haven't found anything yet?" Gu Enling scanned the entire parking lot before turning her gaze to Lu Yanxu and Pei Zhiyi.

He had no doubt about Pei Zhiyi and Lu Yanxu.

I just asked casually, since that's not his area of ​​expertise.

Pei Zhiyi frowned, still unwilling to give up, and asked, "Are there any areas we haven't investigated?"

All the places that needed to be checked have been checked, and the ground beneath that can be detected with mental power is solid soil.

Lu Yanxu thought for a moment in silence: "There's one more place. We haven't gone there yet."

Pei Zhiyi looked up at him, "Where?"

They traveled to almost every place.

"elevator."

To be precise, it's an elevator that currently appears to be completely abandoned.
