Chapter 466.1



Chapter 466- Endgame

That night, the group acted separately.

Shao Qingge and Ye Qi rushed to the orphanage overnight and found a big tree at the entrance. After so many years, the tree branches and leaves were lush and the trunk was thicker than the waist of an adult. Ye Qi and Shao Qingge exchanged looks before immediately digging around the roots of the tree. It didn’t take long for the two of them to dig out the wish bottle.

Ye Qi opened the wish bottle. It was filled with a smart chip for storing data.

At the same time, Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang wore the invisibility cloak and infiltrated the top floor of the royal hospital mentioned by Zhang Shaohua.

The door of the laboratory was closed tightly. There was a long corridor in front of the door and infrared detectors on both sides of the corridor. The door had a strict verification system that scanned pupils and checked fingerprints. If the verification was incorrect then sirens would be triggered in the entire corridor… they couldn’t get in at all.

How could they open this door?

The two people thought about it for a moment before Yu Hanjiang spoke to Xiao Lou through Heart has a Tacit Exchange of Romantic Feelings, “We can’t enter through the door but we can try to enter from the ceiling. A laboratory on the top floor will always have air conditioning vents.”

Xiao Lou understood the meaning. “Use Thumbelina to become smaller and then get in through the vents?”

Yu Hanjiang nodded and simply said, “Go!”

This method was amazing. The two of them immediately left the main door and climbed to the top of the building using the light footwork card. Then they used Liu Qiao’s Thumbelina to reduce their size, found the vent for their air conditioner and quickly entered.

Two people the size of a bug passed through the vent of the air conditioner smoothly. They entered the internal ducts of the building and jumped down from the air conditioner into the top floor laboratory.

There wasn’t much evidence left in this laboratory.

Apparently, someone had cleaned up here.

The laboratory was clean and tidy with many common instruments used in scientific experiments. There were no traces of nutrient solutions, glassware, cells or clones.

If outsiders entered then their first reaction would be that this was a very ordinary laboratory.

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang circled the laboratory and found no evidence in it.

Yu Hanjiang wondered through the mind channel, “Could it be that they abandoned this place and moved the cloning laboratory somewhere else?”

Xiao Lou looked around. He always felt it was strange. “The most dangerous place is the safest place. If insiders come here and find that the laboratory has changed a lot, the first reaction will be ‘they must’ve changed locations’ and then stop investigating. Perhaps they hid the truth under the water surface and we are just seeing the calm water surface?”

Yu Hanjiang thought about it and agreed. “It makes sense. We will search carefully. Perhaps there is another secret room in the laboratory.”

The two of them continued to search for suspicious mechanisms in the walls and the ground but nothing was found.

Suddenly, Xiao Lou stood in the middle of the laboratory and his eyes looked around. “Do you think this laboratory is a bit smaller?”

Yu Hanjiang was startled. “Is the area smaller?”

“The size of the lobby on the first floor when we entered the hospital was very large. This building is a standard cubic building. It stands to reason that the area of the top floor should be the same as the first floor. Yet this laboratory… the area is only around 80% of the size of the first floor. A large number of instruments and equipment are placed here, making it easy to visually misjudge that the narrow space is due to the crowding effect of too much equipment.”

Xiao Lou quickly moved through the laboratory from beginning to end while measuring. “However, distance won’t deceive people. I have just measured it with my footsteps. The first floor is 40 meters long and 10 meters wide. The top floor is 35 meters long and 10 meters wide.”

Perhaps it was because he was usually in a forensic laboratory that Xiao Lou was sensitive to laboratory space. Yu Hanjiang heard this and immediately reacted. “The missing length is five meters. There is a hidden room in here!”

Xiao Lou suggested, “Let’s carefully search the east end and west end.”

The width of 10 meters hadn’t changed but the length of 40 meters was shortened to 35 meter. Where was the remaining space of 5 meters x 10 meters? It must be a hidden secret room.

Yu Hanjiang went east and Xiao Lou west.

Soon, Yu Hanjiang heard Xiao Lou’s voice from the Heart has a Tacit Exchange of Romantic Feelings channel. “I found it!”

The westernmost wall looked like a wall but it was actually a huge hidden door that was opened and closed using a nearby instrument. This instrument happened to be the computer for genetic sequencing. Xiao Lou turned on the instrument and entered the password Noah’s Ark, which was the first line of Morse code left to Shao Qingge by his father.

The whole wall opened slowly.

Xiao Lou saw a shocking scene.

In the space of nearly 50 square meters, two petri dishes made of glass were placed. The petri dishes were like two transparent ‘coffins’ filled with blue nutrient solution.

Xiao Lou couldn’t be more familiar with the people lying quietly inside the petri dishes.

One was his father.

The other was his sister.

Ye Qi and Shao Qingge rushed to the orphanage and returned overnight to bring the information to Tang Ci.

Tang Ci quickly compared it. He sifted through the different parts of the three materials and sent the results to Xiao Lou.

Sure enough, the information that Zhang Shaohua asked Mrs Ye to take away and that she buried under the tree had the most comprehensive about the original Noah’s Ark project. This included the gene samples of the emperor and Princess Xiao Rou and the detailed cell culture process.

The information found among the merpeople had removed the parts about the emperor and Xiao Rou.

The data found with the bugs was based on the merpeople’s data and included the plans of chip implantation and the bug gene improvement. Some clones had the invisibility of the merpeople and could be produced in a streamlined manner.

The invisible man was originally from version 3.0.

This was an artificially manufactured product after optimizing the genes of the three major races.

The invisible man who sneaked into the Twin Palaces was obviously a tool controlled by the star thief leader Rod Bell with the chip. He left Xiao Lou with the words ‘the one who lives to the end is the winner’ in order to lead Xiao Lou to leave the palace and go to Azure Planet to investigate. This way, he could implement the hunting plan for Xiao Lou’s team.

On the merpeople’s side, if Liu Qiao wasn’t smart and Xiao Lou wasn’t cautious enough, they would’ve all died in the deep sea. After the failure of the first hunting plan, the hunters used the clone of Chu Huaying to lead Xiao Lou’s group to the starship and they almost died along with the starship’s crash!

From the beginning, the invisible man who sneaked into the Twin Palaces was a trap.

Now the truth had finally come out.

***

There was one day left until the wedding between the crown prince and Lin Yan.

Xiao Lou once again called his teammates to determine the plan of action for the wedding day.

On August 1st, the weather was clear and cloudless.

Prince Xiao Lou and Miss Lin Yan set off from the palace. The prince was wearing luxurious clothing and looked elegant. The prince’s fiancee wore a white wedding dress that was bright and moving. The two of them walked hand in hand along the red carpet and looked very matched.

They received the blessing of the people and boarded a luxurious carriage from the imperial palace.

The carriage took the two people all the way to Jinsha Castle and entered the most sacred church.

Lin Yan’s father, General Lin Zecheng and her mother, Professor Zhang Shaohua were almost the relatives and friends accompanying them.

Zhang Shaohua had been pretending to be stupid for years and she had a dull expression. Therefore, General Lin specifically gave her a half-veil hat that covered her waist, lest she lose her manners at the wedding.

Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci pretended to be guards and followed General Lin and his wife.

To the surprise of the two, Xiao Rou actually came.

It wasn’t known how she persuaded Prince Herman but she came to her brother’s wedding in person and walked beside the emperor.

The guests entered the church and took their seats in turn.

Chu Huaying had sneaked into the church in advance and secretly kidnapped the priest replacing him.

She dressed as a man and wore a priest’s hat as she read aloud the oath, “Today, we are gathered here under the gaze of God to witness the wedding of Mr Xiao Lou and Miss Lin Yan.This is a sacred, pious and serious moment. If anyone has any reason to oppose their union, please step forward now or remain silent forever…”

During the oath, the priest asked if anyone had any objections but it was just a routine. Xiao Lou and Lin Yan stood in front of the priest and neither of them took it seriously.

Yet the moment Chu Huaying’s words finished, a clear voice suddenly rang out inside the church, “I object.”
