The outdoor temperature in Kanyue City today remains as low as minus ten degrees, but the snowfall is better than before.

In such harsh weather, many hardworking people are still sticking to their posts. For example... reporters.

"Damn, this freaking weather is really cold! Why don’t we head back? I don’t think we’re going to find anyone today." A reporter sat inside the air-conditioned van, wearing a thick down jacket, holding a warm water bag, but still felt the bone-chilling cold.

"Didn’t those family members just go in? They should be coming out soon."

"So what if they come out? What can we ask? Even if there are issues, they’ve surely been paid off to stay quiet and won’t say anything at all."

"Yeah... you’re right, that’s just how these big corporations operate."

"Hey, hey, hey, they’re coming out! Quick, quick, quick, get out of the car!"

The reporters who had just lost hope in these people immediately opened the car doors, swarming out with their equipment.

"Uncle, it’s so cold, come to our van to warm up! We have hot milk!"

"Hey brother, let’s walk, there’s a coffee shop nearby where we can sit."

"..."

The situation quickly turned chaotic as there were more reporters than family members, but everyone wanted to get the first-hand information.

Suddenly, a young family member stood at the entrance of Xianglong Building, shouting loudly, "I am willing to expose the dark secrets of Qiansimei! I know what caused the explosion! I can tell you everything!"

After the young family member spoke, other family members also began to express their agreement, and Bai Shishi and the others’ attitudes were extremely aggressive!

The reporters, hearing these words, had a gleam in their eyes. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

It had been a long time since they met someone so willing to cooperate! This was a kind of comfort in such terrible weather!

Just then, a female secretary stood at the entrance of Xianglong Building, loudly shouting to the crowd, "Dear reporters and accident family members, if you need an interview, our company can provide a venue. Please follow me inside."

The reporters were dumbfounded, and the family members were also dumbfounded.

Shouldn’t we be kicked out? Why are they inviting us in instead?

"Let’s go. Are we really going to be afraid of them? I have to expose all their wrongdoings in their headquarters, what can they do to me?"

With someone taking the lead, everyone followed suit and went inside.

It’s really great to have heating!

The female secretary led the group to a large conference room and then left.

The conference room seemed to have been prepared in advance, with pastries, coffee, and hot milk, treating these people like they were VIPs.

Lin Tian was sitting on a chair, crossing his legs, making himself a cup of coffee, holding a cigarette, looking leisurely and apologetic.

He was currently sitting in the main control room of the Xianglong Building, the screen showing the reporters and the families.

A young man, about thirty, stepped forward, and all the reporters’ cameras and microphones were pointed at him, making him seem like a star in the spotlight.

Lin Tian took a puff of his cigarette, looked at his image on the screen, and suddenly felt his facial muscles twitch, unable to resist laughing across the screen, he cursed and said, "Damn, that kid really knows how to put on an act and steal the spotlight."

"My name is Zhao Mao, and I am an employee of Qiansimei, working as a processor for the White Lotus Muscle Powder. Now, let me tell you about my daily work, though there isn’t much to say. It’s about standing in front of machines, setting up the proportions, and watching buckets of black liquid being poured into the raw materials for the White Lotus Muscle Powder."

A reporter asked, "Mr. Zhao Mao, what are those black liquids?"

"Well... I don’t know either. When we work, we have to wear dust-free clothes, masks, and gloves. Those black liquids are dense and thick, with a bitter smell. When I first saw them, I felt very disgusted, but I got a bit used to it over time."

"But I’ve always felt that being in that environment can’t be good for my body, so I usually go to the hospital for check-ups. I don’t know if it’s because of the job, but my health is really getting worse and worse, and my immunity has decreased a lot. This is my personal experience, I’m not lying to anyone!"

As soon as Zhao Mao finished speaking, it sparked a strong reaction from the families. Their narratives were similar, all feeling that their relatives’ immunity was declining, with frequent fevers and colds, and even grinding teeth at night!

The reporters were deeply moved.

Why were they moved? Wasn’t it because they had been waiting in this terrible weather for a long time and had finally gotten explosive news!

With the current material alone, they could write several articles! And each would have eye-popping highlights!

Their job is to expose things that ordinary people don’t know. In this industry, most people don’t bother to verify facts because it’s troublesome and offers no benefit; by the time they verify everything, other news outlets have already exposed it!

Lin Tian looked at the screen and finally uttered only a curse: "Bullshit!"

What nonsense is this?

Others might not know what those black liquids are, but as the source of the formula, he knows.

Those so-called black liquids are genuine herbal concoctions! They are carefully brewed over low heat for a long time!

Herbs, before adding any fragrance, have some taste; that’s completely normal.

But Lin Tian could be sure that consistently working with these herbs would not only not harm immunity, it would actually enhance health! Yet, from these people’s mouths, it became something harmful.

Just then, Zhao Mao revealed another shocking secret.

"When the factory exploded, I was in the workshop. I witnessed the explosion, and it was all those black liquids that blew up, and it was a chain reaction! At that moment, I felt the ground trembling underfoot. If I hadn’t escaped quickly, I’d be in the morgue by now!"

"What?!"

In an instant, the reporters went into a frenzy. This was the real scoop!

The explosion of White Lotus Muscle Powder’s raw materials, just imagine that headline, it would surely make it to the top news!

"Mr. Zhao Mao, can you be more specific?"

"Why did it suddenly explode? And how did it trigger other explosions?"

The reporters asked over each other, eager to get the answers immediately.

Zhao Mao seemed to have anticipated this, and calmly responded, "I already said I was lucky to be far away and escaped disaster, how could I possibly know the specifics? Those who knew are already dead."

In the control room, Lin Tian brushed the ash off his cigarette, his face so gloomy it could drip blood.

This guy really dares to say anything!
