The NO.1 Food Stall in the Wasteland novel Chapter 278

Chapter 278: Chapter 278: You’re Really Crazy

Yang Yu rattled off the research report on the new nutrient liquid to Gong Tianhua. Shen Lu, who was using a Possession Card, heard every word with perfect clarity.

The more she listened, the more alarmed Shen Lu became.

’What the hell is this new nutrient liquid? It doesn’t sound like a good thing at all.’

’If it were a good thing, why would it require serum from mutant beasts?’

’And they even mentioned test subjects.’

"Most of the test subjects who consumed the experimental product have already undergone beastification. To further optimize the nutrient liquid, we need a sample subject we can observe from the moment they ingest the product until their beastification is complete."

"Also, we lack samples from Superpower Users."

Gong Tianhua said, "Alright, I understand. I’ll arrange for all of that. You may continue your work."

Gong Tianhua left the laboratory.

"Director Gong," his assistant, Liao Guang, hurriedly approached him. "Mr. Gao is back."

"Gao Weineng said just yesterday that he’d be at the Shanghai survival base until the end of the year. Why is he back all of a sudden?"

"I don’t know, Director Gong. He already knows about our secret activities. He’s on his way to the institute right now."

Shen Lu’s eyes widened. ’Secret activities?’

’What have they been doing secretly?’

She felt like she was on the verge of uncovering the truth.

Shen Lu glanced at her hidden mission’s progress bar. In just half an hour, it had already jumped to 80%!

Gong Tianhua scowled and cursed under his breath.

"That old bastard, couldn’t he have come back a few days later?! Does he have to come back right now and ruin my grand plans?!"

In just a few more days, his research would have reached a milestone.

Mumbling curses, Gong Tianhua hurried toward his office.

But Gao Weineng was too fast. Just as he reached his office door, a stern-faced Gao Weineng called out to him.

"Professor Gong, please come to my office."

Gao Weineng disliked addressing people by their official titles. He called the more senior members of the institute "Professor," and the younger ones by their names, or simply "Xiao Wang" or "Xiao Li."

"Of course, Mr. Gao."

Though Gong Tianhua was panicking internally, his expression was as calm as a summer’s day. He followed Gao Weineng with a composed look.

Back in Gong Tianhua’s office, Fu Cheng heard their footsteps fade away and his tense nerves relaxed slightly. Noticing that Qi Zhixian was showing signs of waking up, he expressionlessly chopped the back of his neck, knocking him out again.

Fu Cheng adjusted Shen Lu’s position, letting her lean back against his chest with her head resting on his shoulder. It made it easier for him to hold her.

"Shen Lu, what in the world are you up to?"
