The gentle big sister in the white coat maintained a gentle smile on her face, her eyes slightly lowered, hiding a hint of sigh, and replied, "This is an abandoned gene research institute."

"Gene?" Mo Haihao’s face darkened: "Research on human and animal genes?"

"What nonsense are you talking about, how could there be such inhumane research!" The gentle big sister covered Little Taotie’s ears, "The child is still here, please watch your words."

"I’m not blind, those things inside must have human genes on them!"

"You misunderstand, it’s just ape genes."

"Do you take me for a fool?" Mo Haihao’s face turned cold: "You better make it clear, the task I received didn’t mention that the pipes were full of these things!"

"As long as you complete the task assigned by the higher-ups, it’s fine. Didn’t the kid already catch one? Once you hand it over to us, you can leave." At this moment, an elderly man walked in from outside, his face stern, wearing a pair of frameless glasses.

Mo Haihao tightened his grip on Little Taotie’s hand, hiding Little Taotie behind him, and said coldly: "We won’t hand over what we’ve caught to anyone until things are clear. If you want it, ask the head of the Special Department yourself!"

"Ask Shen Cang?" The elderly man nodded: "Okay."

To directly call Shen Cang by name, this person must have a significant status.

Mo Haihao’s brow furrowed even tighter.

The elderly man dialed the phone and put it on speaker. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"Old Man Shen." The elderly man called unceremoniously.

Mo Haihao’s brow twitched.

"If you’re calling me, it can’t be for anything good, spit it out."

"After all these years, you’re still so irascible. An old friend is back in the country, shouldn’t you invite me for a cup of tea to catch up?"

"Spit it out!"

"Alright, alright, I ran into a stubborn one under you, won’t hand over the stuff without understanding the situation. But you know, some things aren’t for his level to know."

"Mo Haihao?"

"Hey, you called his name right away, seems like you know your people well."

Shen Cang said coldly: "Is he listening?"

"Yes, so please order him, I think he won’t disobey your orders."

"Mo Haihao, give him the thing."

"But..." Mo Haihao hesitated.

"Don’t worry about anything, give him the thing, we’ll talk when you come back."

"...Alright."

Mo Haihao looked down at Little Taotie, the little girl blinked her big eyes, looking clueless.

Mo Haihao sighed and patted Little Taotie’s head: "Did you put the Ghost in the wooden box?"

Little Taotie shook her head: "I was in a hurry just now, it’s in the Horse-Faced Bell."

"Transfer it to the wooden box, give them the wooden box, and we can go back."

"Just go back like this?"

Hmm? We’ve obviously completed the task, why does the captain seem unhappy?

Little Taotie couldn’t figure it out, but she obediently did as told.

She shook the Horse-Faced Bell into the prepared wooden box. When the bizarre, deformed Ghost came out, she quickly retracted the Horse-Faced Bell, covered the wooden box lid, and sealed the box with yellow Talisman Paper.

This series of actions couldn’t be seen by an ordinary person, but besides Mo Haihao and Little Taotie, the elderly man could see it.

The elderly man squinted his eyes: "A human face, it seems there really is illegal research going on here."

"You can see it?" Mo Haihao was surprised.

The elderly man smiled: "I used to be colleagues with Shen Cang."

Mo Haihao was astounded: "You used to be with the Special Department too..."

The elderly man nodded, took the wooden box from Little Taotie’s hands, and patted her head, "Thank you for your help, little cutie."

Little Taotie’s face turned red, looking up at the Flower on the elderly man’s head.

It was a blue rose, very beautiful, just like a real blue enchantress, the only difference being that there were little twinkling lights around the flower, making it look even more dazzlingly beautiful.
