The announcer on the midnight news reported an international news report. “Late tonight, there was an unexplained explosion in the Hanbei Ridge area at the border of the empire and S Nation. At present, the casualties are not known…”

When Gu Qiqi, who was frying something sweet in the kitchen, heard this, her wrist trembled!

Hanbei Ridge?

Explosion?

She instantly thought of Gong Jue!

Wasn’t Gong Jue on a business trip in the Hanbei Ridge?

This was because a hidden laboratory in S Nation had been discovered there. Although he later found out that it was a scheme set up by Kun Bu, he said that there was indeed a lot of important information left inside that needed to be carefully verified. Therefore, he had to stay behind to command and lead the expert team to verify it on the spot…

It had already been a few days. Moreover, according to Gong Jue, it would take a few more days to complete this important secret mission.

It couldn’t be that the laboratory was the one that had exploded, could it?

Gu Qiqi comforted herself. It couldn’t be so melodramatic.

However, her heart was already beating wildly.

She couldn’t care less about flipping the thin, sweet pancake. With the spatula in hand, she turned and twisted it in the direction of the television in the living room.

On the television screen, a blurry satellite surveillance image appeared.

On the vast snowfield, a huge mushroom cloud suddenly erupted.

Within a radius of a few kilometers, everything was severely affected.

In the center of the explosion, there was a huge sinkhole.

Meanwhile, the surrounding jungle had turned into charcoal.

Even the snow melted into black water…

The scene was rather tragic!

That was not an ordinary fire explosion. Clearly, it was a very serious accident!

Gu Qiqi’s heart skipped a beat before stopping!

An explosion!

Hanbei Ridge!

Could it really be the laboratory where Gong Jue was?

She stared intently at the television screen, not letting go of the commentator’s every word.

Lian Xiaolan joked with her. “Qiqi, why didn’t you cook properly? Why did you come out to watch television with us? The food is going to burn!”

She pretended not to hear her and only stared blankly at the screen.

The commentator continued to report, “The range of the explosion is very large. According to the analysis of the national observers, this is the latest high-intensity precision bomb in the world. It’s only inferior to a real atomic bomb… Therefore, it can be determined that if there were humans in the center of the explosion, they would have been reduced to ashes at this moment, not even a corner of their clothes would be left behind… However, from the residue of the explosion, it seems that there were once buildings here… Fortunately, the residents of the Hanbei Ridge area have long moved away, and this area is a famous restricted area. It’s even more impossible for tourists to stay here. At the moment, it’s estimated that there are no casualties. As for the reason for the explosion, it still needs further confirmation from the presidential palace and international authorities…”

Every word that the commentator said was like a needle that pricked Gu Qiqi’s nerves.

Buildings?

How could there be buildings in a desolate place like the Northern Han Ridge?!

If not the secret laboratory building, what else could it be?

All the characteristics pointed to the final answer that she couldn’t bear to guess: Gong Jue and the experts he led had already died in the laboratory…

Perhaps the S Nation had already planted a time bomb, or perhaps it was a last-ditch effort by Kun Bu’s men…

No matter what the reason was, the tragic outcome was right in front of them.

Gu Qiqi was already unable to speak or move.
