Chapter 68 Acquaintances

"Beep...beep..."

In a private hospital room in the Bureau of Investigation building, Litty is receiving an IV drip.

She seemed to be in a deep sleep, her doll-like face so exquisite it was almost unbelievable, almost unreal.

Lin Chen stood by the bed, looking at Liti, his mind still replaying what had just happened.

Just now, when Huihui was emotionally agitated... Lin Chen successfully entered her memories and saw the process of those children committing evil.

This has never happened before.

Could it be that... the vision of "Mirage City" is not limited to the history I have glimpsed, but can also glimpse the experiences of others?

But this situation doesn't seem to have occurred before... no, it has.

When Qingtian was killed, Lin Chen glimpsed his past through the azure substance.

At the time, he thought those memories were hidden in the blue substance, but now it seems that's not the case.

The only variable seems to be emotion—Huihui was very emotional at the time, which is why Lin Chen was able to enter the history she had seen.

Let's try it another time...

Suddenly, Lin Chen heard the door open. He turned around and saw Professor Jürgen walk in with several test results.

"It's nothing serious," Professor Jürgen said, sitting down next to Lin Chen and rubbing his temples wearily. "But the doctor said we should avoid putting her in such dangerous situations. The entity that crawled out this time wasn't very strong, but if a gamma-level entity were to crawl out one day... it would be very difficult to handle."

Professor Jürgen looked at the report and sighed deeply.

"Given this situation, it's really not suitable for Litty to go to school."

"Those kids who did bad things should be severely punished," Lin Chen said seriously. "Since Liti is fine as long as she takes her medicine, she has the right to go to school."

Hearing Lin Chen say this, Jürgen smiled with satisfaction.

"I'm glad you think that way," Jürgen sighed softly. "For so many years, I've been working on research at the Bureau of Investigation because it's the only place where I can find a way to cure her 'insomnia.' When I was working at the foundation, I applied for many projects, but those big shots just wouldn't approve any funding for me."

"It's understandable. Parliament has too high a vision and values ​​returns more, so it's unwilling to waste funds on such rare diseases."

Hearing this, Lin Chen was slightly surprised: Professor Jürgen had actually worked at the foundation.

However, thinking about it, it's not surprising. Even though Lin Chen doesn't know much, he can tell that Professor Jürgen is highly respected in the entire Bureau of Investigation. Those arrogant paranormal scientists greet him humbly when they see him.

"But if things continue like this, I find it hard to convince myself to let her continue attending classes," Professor Jürgen pushed up his glasses. "Whatever the reason for this incident, she's a ticking time bomb. If something really happens to those children..."

Just then, Professor Jürgen's phone rang.

He picked up his phone and said softly:

"Liti's in trouble, I might not be able to make it tonight, or else..."

"Is it warmed up yet? What's the latest time it can start?"

"10:30...I'm going to miss it..."

Lin Chen saw the struggle on Professor Jürgen's face, and he immediately stood up and said:

"I have a meeting tonight, but I can come over to keep you company after 10:30. I'll take over when you finish your experiment."

"Are you available?" Jürgen asked Lin Chen.

"You've made me a whale-sound bomb for free, so I have to do something in return," Lin Chen chuckled.

Jürgen nodded gratefully to Lin Chen and said into the phone:

"I will be at the lab before 10:30."

The old man put down the phone, glanced at Litty on the bed, and sighed softly.

He turned his head and patted Lin Chen on the shoulder:

"Thank you, Kobayashi. There aren't many responsible young people like you anymore."

"Of course."

......

After saying goodbye to Professor Jürgen, Lin Chen went directly to the First Department office.

He originally planned to eat at the cafeteria, but Li Zhanyi brought him dinner when she came back from school.

"See, see, in the end I'll treat you to dinner first, okay?"

Li Zhanyi smiled as he watched Lin Chen, who was showing off his braised pork trotter rice, and gently straightened his collar.

"How's school?" Lin Chen asked, putting down his chopsticks after finishing his meal.

"It's alright, I managed to fool the teacher," Li Zhanyi stretched. "I heard Little Litty had an accident?"

"Yes, the professor will be away for a while tonight, I'll go keep him company."

"You're responsible," Li Zhanyi patted Lin Chen on the shoulder. "I'll head back after the meeting. I'll take care of Huihui."

"Mm." Lin Chen nodded gently.

This feeling of discussing and living together warmed his heart, and the chill of the Iron Horn Bridge seemed to have finally dissipated somewhat.

Just then, the department door opened, and Jiang Zhengge rushed in, casually tossing his lunchbox into the trash can.

It looks like he ate his meal while walking.

"Meeting time!" Jiang Zhengge clapped his hands. "Louis, what was the result?"

"Yes, I've got a list of all the staff at the Waldorf Hotel."

Louis gently turned the computer, revealing a list on the screen with a small portrait next to each name.

This is like giving an account to someone's ancestors...

Everyone gathered around the table, scanning the names together.

"It's been so tough getting this list together lately, with all the event planning," Louis said, rubbing his nose. Lin Chen could see the dark circles under his eyes. "Take a look, where should we start?"

"Lobby Manager," Jiang Zhengge clicked on a name, looking at the headshot, "I know this guy. He often takes small bribes and provides illegal trading venues for gangs and companies..."

"How did you know?" Lin Chen asked curiously.

"We also stayed at the Waldaff during the last Operation Skybreaker," Jiang Zhengge said with a faint smile. "The rooms provided by the Foundation are definitely equipped with eavesdropping devices, so I asked this lovely lobby manager to book another room for me."

"Goodness, does this count as dealing with the underworld?" Lin Chen muttered.

"The principle of this department is to operate in both the legal and illegal worlds. Sometimes we have to give up some of our bottom lines."

Jiang Zhengge rubbed his wrist and stared at the lobby manager on the screen.

"Besides, it's not like we're not going to arrest him anymore. Aren't we settling accounts now?"

"I will get the architectural plans for the Walduff Hotel from him. Louis, get the rest ready by tomorrow."

"Understood," Louis nodded.

"We need another person to infiltrate, and we need to find someone to disguise themselves," Jiang Zhengge said softly. "We can't put all our eggs in one basket. We need to see if there's anyone we can bribe..."

"Wait a minute, take a look at this person," Lin Chen suddenly said.

He looked at the list on the screen with some surprise: in the "kitchen" column, a familiar face caught his eye.

"Chen Minghao...is this my Brother Hao?"

Lin Chen clicked on the name, and as the picture zoomed in, Hao Ge's blank and silly face appeared.

Brother Hao, that little chef Lin Chen bought breakfast from for two years...

They actually got into the Waldaffodil Hotel's kitchen system?

......
