Chapter 552 Deep Sea: I Have No Objections

In fact, Ma Zhaodi's choice may not necessarily be right.

Edgar was a decisive and efficient man. As soon as he finished watching the news, he immediately called Storm, who was far away in Sagewood, and ordered her to destroy all evidence and the patient's evidence. There was no lawsuit yet, and it was only the CIA's accountability phase. He so easily gave up the drug testing site that he had been operating for many years. His reaction was so fast that it could even be described as sensitive.

Before the investigation had even begun to delve deeper, all the shining figures were dead, and with witnesses dying suddenly, he actually had the audacity to immediately kill all the test subjects, transfer all the experimental data, and completely destroy that secret location that had been used for many years.

"Fortunately, I had a little more initiative than him."

Ma Zhaodi breathed a sigh of relief: "The advantage of having the breast milk delivered in advance, along with the CIA's dual-track operation, is that we intercepted such a large batch of documents and witnesses."

Since Edgar wasn't a fool, the three parties he met must all be very important figures. Ma Zhaodi couldn't tell who came first and who came last, so he could only rank them according to his own ideas.

But in reality, the "mistress and illegitimate daughter" that Ma Zhaodi is going to visit first today may not necessarily leave New York or die under Edgar's arrangement. They may stay in the house and continue doing what they were doing.

Anyway, no one noticed.

Ma Zhaodi's plans to include the "Russian mafia" and the "heavily guarded suburban areas" later on are also considered gambles and guesses.

After all, even gangsters can be shot dead by the opposing gang in a shootout, let alone that so-called secret area where no one can escape—the center of the Sage Forest and that area were definitely one of the Vought Corporation's hidden secrets and important areas, but in the end, Edgar ordered all the relevant evidence and documents to be destroyed and transferred early on.

"If he originally intended to personally order and supervise the destruction of evidence in that area, then that is probably now completely done."

Ma Zhaodi couldn't help but sigh inwardly: "Or, to put it more positively, is there actually no evidence in there?"

But if there's no evidence, what could be inside?

He didn't think about the question for long—given his physical abilities, he walked very fast, and while he was pondering it, he had already run to the vicinity of Edgar's "lover and illegitimate daughter's" house.

"I can't see anything special about it."

After observing for a while, there was no sign of outsiders coming or going in the room, and the so-called "Edgar's lover" was nowhere to be seen, but it did seem that there was indeed a little girl inside.

In other words, at least now we can be certain that the other party did not run away after Edgar's warning, but stayed here.

"Nobody's coming."

Ma Zhaodi frowned. He didn't want to just sit there and wait, but he still took out his phone from a distance and tried to hack into the house on the spot.

This is one of the benefits of modern development—Walt Corporation didn't have electronic files because they had learned their lesson in this regard, but ordinary people don't need to worry about this issue and won't deliberately avoid electronic devices.

After confirming that he had successfully hacked into the TV camera in that room, Ma Zhaodi took a quick look around and, after confirming that there were no clues for the time being, immediately headed towards the location where Edgar had met with the gang.

"See those Russian gangsters?"

Ma Zhaodi thought to himself that this matter was obviously likely to be exposed, so he should do some disguise and change his face.

"How about we take the intermediate Russian proficiency course?" Five minutes later, a white man with a big beard and a big belly found a taxi on the street and gave the destination in broken English.

"Are you a new tourist to New York?" the driver asked casually.

"Yes, I'm from out of town."

While Ma Zhaodi was working tirelessly, Frankie had accomplished his mission, Mallory had avenged himself, the CIA was overjoyed, and the Invisible Man was playing a spy game, Deep Sea had already returned to his dormitory and was sitting in front of the TV waiting for the masked man to tell him the good news.

"Is that guy trying to trick me?"

Deep Sea, who is always cautious and suspicious, felt even more insecure at this time when Walter's reputation was teetering on the brink of collapse. Even though he knew that the dolphins could understand the masked man's words, he couldn't help but mutter to himself, "We've been waiting all morning, and it's already afternoon. Why haven't we seen any news about the dolphins on TV yet?"
At this moment, although Wot's situation was more critical and his own heroic career was in more trouble, Deep Sea wasn't thinking about these things much anymore.

It's no use thinking about it.

Just then, the news anchor on TV finally made a move.

"Next, a quick news flash. This is the second news item about Walter today."

"Not long ago, there was new news about Oceania Ocean Park, one of the heroes of the Vought Eight and the commercial partner of Deepsea. The ocean park is suspected of animal abuse. More than a dozen dolphins in the aquarium have shown health problems, seemingly suffering from hunger, depression, and exhaustion due to over-performance."

Let's look at further revelations online—

"Dozens of dolphins were brutally abused? Oceania Marine Park shows no respect for life!"

"WOT's partner is suspected of having a financial crisis! Deep-sea is personally endorsing 'Ocean Land,' but the fish are starving in the park?"

"Walter took the money and did the job without doing any investigation. Why is the deep sea, which knows the most about fish, completely unaware of what's happening in the ocean?"

The copywriting gradually shifted its focus from the dolphin water park to the Walter Company, accompanied by tragic images of dolphins in the aquarium and indignant comments, making the statement "We are all trying our best to live, and the lives of dolphins matter too" seem very reasonable.

A significant portion of the comments also urged animal rights activists to take action quickly, subtly suggesting a united front to pressure them into action.

Of course, to be fair, this news obviously can't be said to have a particularly deep relationship with Water, after all, Water Heroes has taken on a huge number of commercial deals, and the total endorsement fees for the seven members alone are over a billion a year.

Not to mention that Deep Sea was just doing an advertising endorsement for Oceania; there might be some connection between the two, but definitely not much.

But that doesn't matter, as long as the two sides are related. News is all about ratings. Coincidentally, Walter just broke a huge bombshell this morning. Now, as long as there is any negative news about him, even just a little bit, the media will use its traditional journalistic skills to give it enough coverage.

"You're absolutely right, bro! You're absolutely right!"

As Shen Hai watched the news program, he couldn't help but become excited. Of course, he wouldn't dare to be the traitor and go after Walter himself, but he still had a bit of courage to use someone else to do it.

And since it was to save dolphins, he had no objections.
