"What about the network? What's going on with the network?"

"I'm not sure, it seems the repairmen messed it up…"

While other companies in the park were still in darkness, CXX Research \u0026 Trading Company's emergency backup power quickly kicked in.

The company's power supply was quickly restored.

However, the network was still unavailable.

Neither the fiber optic network nor the satellite network connection could be used.

Several security guards at the sentry post were discussing the situation when they saw a black SUV driving from a distance and looked up.

Tonight's fog was thicker than usual.

"Let's go, someone's coming. Let's go take a look."

Several guards walked out of the sentry post and stepped forward, signaling the SUV to stop for inspection.

Fang Heng rolled down the car window.

Through the wire mesh fence erected around the perimeter of CXX Trading Research Company, he could clearly see the federal guards inside the factory, on high alert and armed with weapons.

The sudden power outage had made CXX Research Company's security personnel particularly vigilant.

"We are investigators from the Central Federation Special Incident Investigation Team. We encountered an emergency and need to find your person in charge," Fang Heng said, handing over the room card from his pocket. "These are our credentials."

The guard sized up Fang Heng, took the room card from Fang Heng's hand, and examined it.

Suddenly, the guard felt his vision blur for a moment and couldn't help but rub his eyes.

In the guard's vision, the room card transformed into identification.

"Federal Central Special Incident Task Force…" The guard read the seal on the ID lightly, nodding. "Please wait a moment, I need to apply to my supervisor."

"Hurry."

The guard knew that the people who had come were important. He was thinking of notifying his supervisor via radio, but found that the radio was experiencing signal interference and was temporarily unusable.

"I'm sorry, please wait a moment while I report to my supervisor."

"Okay." Fang Heng gave the guard a cold look. "Hurry, we have an urgent matter."

"Okay, right away…"

Supervisor Deng was the head of CXX Company's Security Department.

He was a middle-aged man who appeared to be in his fifties, with a hint of shrewdness in his eyes.

"I apologize. The foggy weather may have caused magnetic field interference. The park's internal communication system is experiencing some trouble. I apologize for the wait."

After checking Fang Heng's identification again, Supervisor Deng quickly gestured for the sentry to open the gate. "Thank you for your hard work. There are security requirements inside the company, so please get in my car."

"Okay."

After Fang Heng and the other boarded the car, Supervisor Deng personally drove them into the company's park, trying to inquire and probe, "You two look unfamiliar. Is this your first time visiting our CXX Company?"

Fang Heng signaled Gu Qingzhu with his eyes, who immediately understood and said in a cold voice, "We are from the Federal Central Special Incident Task Force, investigating incident project number UY-280001. Are you familiar with this project information? If you are not aware of the situation, please take me to see your superior immediately."

Supervisor Deng's expression immediately changed upon hearing the project number.

Only a small portion of the company's senior management knew about this project.

He happened to be one of them.

The most important task of the security department was to safeguard the safety of this project.

"Yes, I know some things. I am mainly responsible for the security and confidentiality of related projects. Can I know what happened?"

"We suspect that the project information has been leaked, and there may be suspicious people infiltrating CXX Company recently. We are here to conduct an on-site confirmation and screen for suspicious personnel."

"You want to go into the research base to check?"

Supervisor Deng frowned, his expression becoming a bit solemn. He shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I need to verify your security clearance and authorization documents."

Fang Heng took out a blank document from his briefcase and handed it to Supervisor Deng.

Supervisor Deng's eyes glazed over for a moment, then he took the document and carefully reviewed the contents.

Fang Heng sighed inwardly. The Hell Farram compound eyes in his hand were rapidly withering.

He hadn't even seen the shadow of the secret research institute in CXX Research \u0026 Trading Company, and he had already consumed four Hell Farram compound eyes along the way.

They were too fragile.

Seeing that the duration of one compound eye was about to expire, Fang Heng immediately urged, "The matter is urgent, we need to hurry."

After confirming the contents of the document, Supervisor Deng dismissed his suspicion of Fang Heng and the other, nodding. "Okay, I understand. Originally, the head of the research institute should have taken you two into the secret research institute for inspection, but there were some internal malfunctions in the park just now…"

"How long will it take?" Gu Qingzhu interrupted coldly. "If there is a problem, is your CXX Company willing to take responsibility? We don't have time to waste here, please take us in for inspection immediately."

"Okay, alright."

Supervisor Deng hesitated for a moment, then drove the military vehicle all the way to a warehouse in the park where supplies were stored.

Fang Heng looked at the outside from the car window.

The guards at the warehouse did not seem to be strict, and were even slightly weaker than those outside.

"We're here."

Supervisor Deng got out of the car and opened the door for the two.

He didn't know what was wrong today.

The entire park's communication system was significantly affected, and it had not been repaired yet.

Supervisor Deng walked to the warehouse and activated video verification.

"Verification passed, good evening, Supervisor Deng Yuan."

Soon, the warehouse door opened in front of Fang Heng and the others.

"Please rest assured, this is the secret research area. Only eight senior executives of the company, including myself, know the specific location of this area. All researchers and staff who enter the work area work for twenty-four hours and cannot leave or interrupt any contact with the outside world for a year. The outside world cannot know the existence of the secret research area."

Gu Qingzhu's expression was as indifferent as ever. She glanced at Fang Heng and secretly felt a little fortunate.

Fortunately, Fang Heng had come with them.

Otherwise, relying on them to break into the park would have taken a lot of time just to confirm the location of the secret research institute.

"There are surveillance cameras here, and anyone with unknown origins will be interrogated. The research institute is on the 15th floor underground, please follow me."

Entering the warehouse, Supervisor Deng led the two forward until they stepped into a freight elevator on the far right.

"Ding-dong…"

After swiping the card, the hidden floor buttons on the control panel appeared.

"Confirm password - Eternal Day, proceed to the fifteenth floor underground."

"Operation confirmed, welcome, Mr. Deng."

After the built-in intelligent system responded, the elevator began to descend rapidly to the fifteenth floor underground.

Until the elevator doors opened again, a secret research institute built in the underground area was displayed in front of Fang Heng and the others.

The internal structure of the research institute was distributed in a ring shape. The center was a huge open space, a bit like a football field.

The elevator exit faced a wide circular corridor.

From here, they could overlook every corner of the open research work area below.

Looking down through the transparent glass, Fang Heng saw the busy research staff below at a glance.
