Chapter 270: 136 The Queen Mother Worm Opens Her Mouth! _3

“There’s simply no human rights here,” Hera murmured.

“Please do not blame me,” the female researcher expressed her apology.

Hera was the first to discard her contact lenses.

Apparently, the scenes of her showering and full-body disinfection would not be directly watched by Yang Ming.

Yang Ming continued to wait.

From his preliminary understanding of Hera’s character, he thought there was a high probability Hera would initiate a backup plan to gather more intelligence.

Sure enough.

About ten minutes later.

New photos appeared once again, with much enhanced resolution, like a high-speed video whose frames could be directly connected.

Hera was retching continuously in front of the bathroom mirror, with no supervisors behind her.

She was wearing a tank top and tight shorts, her left hand still clutching the backpack Yang Ming had given her.

The backpack contained various documents she had stored, and she used the excuse that only she could handle these documents to keep it always by her side.

Even though its corner was wet at the moment, Hera had no intention of letting it go.

That elastic hair clip was tucked into her thick hair, and even a meticulous search would barely find its trace.

Yang Ming commented, “She really hasn’t given up and is still updating the intelligence.”

“Boss, although this is advantageous for us, we must guard against her suddenly betraying spy Yali.”

“Lyu, her gaze is firm, I think we can trust her.”

Yang Ming said,

“Let’s see how many surprises she can present us. As soon as it’s clear she can’t acquire more intelligence, we’ll leave immediately.”

“Alright, boss.”

In the returned ‘cassette video,’ Hera picked up two ordinary hair clips as a cover.

She stepped on her backpack, picked up the clothes beside her, dressed neatly, and finally donned a lab coat, slinging her backpack over her shoulder, and left the lounge.

For the next half hour, Hera prepared in the laboratory assigned to her.

Yang Ming could feel Hera’s patience gradually waning… She actively contacted Nardo.

Nardo hurried over, holding a pile of documents, doing his best to express kindness: “What’s wrong? Is there something I can help you with?”

Hera made a clearly unreasonable request: “Father, I want to see it.”

“It? Who?”

“The queen Mother Worm.”

“Are you crazy?”

Nardo’s eyes widened, instinctively glancing around: “You stay right here and don’t run around!”

“But Dad,” Hera said softly, “something happened to me, and I need to understand the principle behind these things and find a way to stop them from happening again… This is my secondary reason for being here.”

Upon hearing this, Lyu on the Feinan and Yang Ming in the taxi both had a look of realization.

The alternate motivation for Hera’s actions was now very clear.

“Boss, she should know it was the queen Mother Worm who previously controlled her.”

Yang Ming laughed, “I like her character.”

The ‘video’ showed Nardo asking: “What’s happening? Hera, tell me the truth, what’s wrong with my daughter?”

“Father, can I trust you?”

“I would even sacrifice my life for you!” Nardo’s Adam’s apple quivered, “Of course, I must keep my life to complete the research I haven’t finished.”

Hera’s lips twitched slightly.

She looked at the backpack before her, making a rapid decision: “If anything unusual happens to me, you must stuff the backpack into my arms, remember, Dad, you have to do this.”

“Okay, I understand.”

Nardo grabbed the backpack with both hands, as Hera slowly let go of the shoulder strap.

She waited quietly for a few seconds, then slowly stepped back.

Suddenly!

Her breathing became erratic, a pale green light flashed in her eyes, and her gaze turned incomparably cold.

Nardo’s hair stood on end.

Having dealt with the bugs for so many years, how could he not tell… Nardo immediately lunged forward, pressing the backpack into Hera’s chest!

Hera’s frail body suddenly leaped to the side, crashing heavily to the ground, then between running and crawling, she bolted toward the laboratory door.

“Hera! Hera!”

Nardo chased clumsily after her, not forgetting to activate any alarm he could find along the way.

In the taxi.

“Boss! Hera’s brainwaves are showing anomalies… she’s connected to the Insect Swarm!”

Yang Ming cursed out loud, “Worthless Nardo! Is it so hard to throw the backpack over?”

In the returned video footage, Hera kept running forward, rushing toward where the queen’s petri dish was located.

Although Nardo was a bit slow to react, he wasn’t entirely dim, immediately calling for the mechanical guards to stop Hera.

The scene was chaotic for a moment.

After a brief chase, Hera was restrained on the ground by two mechanical guards, with multiple bruises on her body. Professor Pat had already rushed over upon hearing the news, arriving next to Hera more quickly than Nardo due to being closer.

“What’s wrong with Hera? Nardo!”

“She, she suddenly…”

Professor Pat trembled as he shouted, “The light in her eyes… that’s the light of the bug! Damn it! Nardo! What have you done to your daughter!”

“I did nothing! She’s my only treasure, how could I harm her! Hera! Hera what’s wrong with you!”

“Everyone shut up! She’s saying something!”

Professor Pat roared, and the entire corridor fell silent instantly.

Amidst the faint engine noise of the mechanical guards, Hera’s lips moved slightly, her eyes glowing green as she began to speak:

“Hu… man…”

Human?

Could it be!

Professor Pat instinctively crouched down, his ear close to Hera’s lips.

“Let… me… go… there’s… a… mon… ster…”
