Chapter 34: Mr. Bo Should Know the Dark Side of Human Nature

Translator: Ashley_Choi

Shen Wu arrived at the SWR Research Institute and changed into a white lab coat before donning disposable gloves. Her assistant helped her put on her goggles.

As she entered the high-tech facility, robots could be seen throughout the building. Upon recognizing Shen Wu, one of the robots respectfully greeted her as “Master.”

A series of SSS-grade drugs that had been screened on the black market scrolled across the top of the research room.

Shen Wu entered Research Lab No. 1 and the system welcomed her, “Welcome to Research Lab 1, Master.”

Mo Chen, who was focused on his research, looked up when he saw Shen Wu and asked, “What took you so long?”

“I was held up.” Shen Wu said in a cool tone.

Mo Chen nodded and gestured towards the black antique box nearby.

Shen Wu approached the box, and her gloved fingertips delicately brushed its surface, causing it to open. Inside, there was a rare medicinal herb codenamed 023.

“He’s quite fast.” Shen Wu said.

Mo Chen smiled cheekily. ” That’s right. We have to complete the mission that you ordered us to do. It’s just …”

“Hmm?”

Shen Wu looked over.

Mo Chen scratched his head and coughed lightly. “Boss, we still haven’t found medicinal ingredient 001.”

He carefully looked at Shen Wu, feeling a little flustered. After all, he had been looking for it for more than two months.

Because of the lack of these two herbs, the medicine that Shen Wu wanted to develop had been delayed for a long time.

“Just try your best. If you really can’t find it…Just use something else to replace it.” Shen Wu frowned and closed the box in her hand.

She couldn’t keep staring at 001. After all, she had to continue researching this drug. She didn’t have much time left.

“Ding!”

The phone beside her buzzed. Shen Wu picked up the phone and it was a system notification.

Someone was hacking into her phone, trying to get her location.

Shen Wu furrowed her brow and immediately activated her phone’s protection program. With lightning-fast typing, she entered a string of codes that quickly displayed the IP and name of the person on the other end.

It was Qingming again. This fellow had been tailing her.

“Brother Wu, why not meet with Bo Qichen and ask him to call off his people from investigating you?”

Shen Wu pursed her lips and replied, “If he wants to investigate, let him investigate.”

After all, it was within her power to remain hidden and undiscovered. Mo Chen furrowed his brow. Shen Wu tapped the box next to her. “Keep it safe. We’ll search for 001 for another month. If we can’t find it, we’ll substitute it with something else.”

“Alright.” Mo Chen nodded.

Shen Wu left the SWR Research Institute and arrived at the entrance of a coffee shop. She activated the GPS on her phone to make it easier for Qing Ming to locate her. Qing Ming was delighted to showcase his improved tracking skills and promptly shared Shen Wu’s location with Bo Qichen.

Shen Wu waited at the entrance of the coffee shop for five minutes before putting on her helmet and riding her motorcycle out with a loud roar.

A black luxury car was speeding on the road, Jiang Runian looked at the location sent by Qing Ming on his phone and said, “Qichen, she’s on the move.”

“Oh! She stopped in front of a fruit shop!”

Shen Wu took off her helmet and said to the shop owner, “Two pounds of strawberries, please!”

Shen Wu meticulously plucked off the green leaves and savored a juicy strawberry in her mouth, stealing a glance at her wristwatch.

Three minutes.

Bo Qichen’s car gradually accelerated and made a buzzing sound like a big black bull.

Bo Qichen was about to reach the fruit shop when Jiang Runian pulled the corner of his mouth and said, “She’s gone again!”

At the traffic lights ahead, the black motorcycle revved up and Shen Wu looked back, curling the corners of her mouth.

Did they think they could follow her after tracking her location?

Even if she revealed her location, they wouldn’t be able to find her, as they wouldn’t be able to even if they tried.

She wanted to let them know the dark side of human nature.
