Chapter 48 The Secret of the World's Collapse (Thanks to Alliance Leader: su for the Support)
At this moment, Fang Senyan stood out, allowing the light to clearly illuminate his face.
"Hey, guys, I'm Lieutenant Colonel Sailor. You should recognize me."
The guards looked at each other and whispered.
"Yes, that's him."
"Well, I've heard his name (Legend +1)."
"I heard this guy did a great job on the battlefield."
"..."
The guard became less stern and asked hesitantly, "Lieutenant Colonel, though it's impolite to ask, visiting Mrs. Noah at this hour isn't really appropriate."
Fang Senyan's face darkened. "Are you trying to pry into military secrets? Or do I need to call the military police to clear the way?"
The guard swallowed, shrugged, and finally let them through.
Needless to say, Fang Senyan and the others didn't even knock on the door. They simply climbed down from the roof and entered from the balcony. The security door was completely useless.
When Lieutenant Colonel Van Siter felt something was wrong and jumped out of bed, Zi's figure had already disappeared like a dissolving shadow into the darkness of the doorway. When she reappeared, her curved dagger was already at his neck.
Fang Senyan was speechless. He even had the illusion that Zi wasn't a mage-type Contractor at all, but rather an agile melee-type… However, Fang Senyan didn't know that Zi's experiences were far more difficult than his. In this cruel space, one simply couldn't survive by being a pretty face. How could a woman reach the level of team leader by hiding in the back?
Fang Senyan pulled the curtains and switched on the desk lamp, rudely shining the light directly into Van Siter's face. He took the opportunity to size up the guy's appearance.
He was a man around forty, but not the muscular, scarred, taciturn, sturdy guy they had imagined. Instead, he was a fat man with a full beard… His belly was so round that he looked five or six months pregnant, but his small eyes gleamed shrewdly.
The latter had calmed down by now. Even with a dagger at his neck, he slowly sat up and lit a cigarette, his small eyes darting around quickly.
"Let me guess why you're here? Is it for money or goods? Oh, oh! You must be here to avenge that Kram, right? Yes, yes, I did kill him. But I still have to say it's none of my business. Someone asked me to do it, after all, he took the goods but refused to pay us. Listen, friends, you won't get anything by killing me, and you'll be hunted by many people. So why not take a considerable fortune and leave? I promise not to pursue this matter…"
The four of them didn't speak, waiting for Lieutenant Colonel Van Siter to ramble on for a long time. Then Fang Senyan handed him a glass of water and said calmly, "Drink it, then keep talking."
Lieutenant Colonel Van Siter shut his mouth, his small eyes turning back and forth in surprise and suspicion.
Zi took out the ruby ring she had obtained from Chedriakos Siso and tossed it in front of him, saying coldly, "Do you recognize this ring?"
Lieutenant Colonel Van Siter's face turned pale, and his voice became shrill. "You… how is it possible? I, I, it wasn't me!"
Zi continued to remain silent, the atmosphere as tense as if frozen in ice. Only Van Siter's breathing could be heard clearly. The fear of death gripped his entire body. Because he knew very well that if these people had come to his door because of the Chedriakos Siso incident, then his chances of survival were very, very small.
The conditions he could offer to save his life, the Chedriakos family could offer very easily, and the benefits he couldn't offer, Chedriakos could also easily produce!
Now, the only belief supporting Van Siter was that these people hadn't attacked as soon as they entered the door. They must still want to get something from him, but the silence of this group was causing him to bear even greater psychological pressure! After another full ten minutes, Van Siter finally said hoarsely, "Okay, what do you want?"
Zi said coldly, "Listen, I'll only give you one chance to answer the questions. If you give me the wrong answer, or say you don't know, then you're dead."
Van Siter's eyes darted around. "But how do I know you'll let me go after I answer the questions?"
Zi said calmly, "You have no choice! If you don't answer, you'll definitely die. If you answer, we might be lying to you, but we might not be. So you have a chance to survive. I'm going to start asking questions."
Van Siter smiled bitterly. "Ask away."
Zi said straightforwardly, "Although Chedriakos Siso is a playboy from a wealthy family, he's actually very knowledgeable in paleontology. It's just that his reputation for debauchery has masked his talent in this area. I can say with certainty that the mosquito amber used to extract dinosaur genes fell into the hands of Chedriakos Siso. But, this amber wasn't found on his body. I need to know where it went."
Hearing this question, Van Siter visibly breathed a sigh of relief. "That amber is now in Hammond's hands. You must know him, right? The legendary father of dinosaurs, the Jurassic Park dinosaur island was created by him. But later, the repeated incidents on that dinosaur island bankrupted him. But a year ago, he found me and was willing to pay a high price to buy that mosquito amber. I was planning an operation against Chedriakos Siso at the time, so I took this job as well."
Zi said expressionlessly, "So, you killed Chedriakos Siso because of something else, and the amber was just taken casually."
Van Siter said helplessly, "Of course. If you want to know my original purpose for looking for Chedriakos Siso, I can tell you, but, from now on, you'll have to be prepared to be hunted at all times."
Fang Senyan suddenly said, "Don't create unnecessary complications, Van Siter. How do you prove that what you're saying is true?"
Van Siter immediately said, "I record all my phone calls."
As he spoke, Van Siter picked up a slipper next to him. Fang Senyan and the others were naturally not afraid of him playing tricks. They saw him press the slipper against the wall next to him, presumably using the pattern on the sole of the slipper to open some kind of mechanism. Then Van Siter pulled out a phone from under the bed, and the sound of a conversation came out with a press.
"I'm Hammond, I need that mosquito amber."
"Mr. Hammond??? Wow, since you were introduced by Number 1, then I won't say anything false. After investigation, the mosquito amber is now in the hands of Mr. Chedriakos Siso. It's going to be difficult to get that thing."
"Listen, Lieutenant Colonel, these big guys from the Cretaceous period have evolved, they're slowly evolving into completely new species. One day, humans will be destroyed by the claws and teeth of these guys. So we must kill them now, before our race is wiped out."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Hammond, I don't quite understand this, and what does killing those damn green-skinned lizards have to do with amber?"
"Don't you understand? All their gene fragments originated from that drop of blood in this mosquito amber. I must get that blood sample in the mosquito amber again to study it carefully. I may find the most fatal genetic defects in these dinosaurs! If I succeed, then I can completely kill them before they evolve to make up for repairing that gene fragment, as simple as spraying mosquito repellent on mosquitoes."
"Oh, Mr. Hammond, phone calls are quite expensive, so you just need to answer me, how much money can you offer to buy this mosquito amber, this thing placed on the only heir of the Chedriakos family."
"........"
Fang Senyan looked at Zi. Zi nodded and broadcast the information she had just obtained in the team channel.
"You have obtained relevant key information."
"Main quest change: obtain the mosquito amber, the beginning of the story, from Hammond!"
"Warning: If Hammond's research on the mosquito amber is successful and published, it will lead to terrifying consequences. The most powerful dinosaurs can be killed in batches at an extremely low cost, and the entire Jurassic world will collapse."
"You have only 48 hours to complete this task."
"Warning: If the task fails, all your basic attributes will be reduced by 33%, and you will be unable to enter the Jurassic Park world from now on."
Zi said softly, "Hammond is now a public figure, it should be quite easy to find him. Forty-eight hours is enough."
Fang Senyan nodded, took a "Perfect Dinosaur Crystal" from Zi and said to Lieutenant Colonel Van Siter, "This is your reward, but, I want to borrow your house for a while. And you'd better not stop for a moment in the next forty-eight hours, you must always be on a means of transportation. Believe it or not, but I've given you this warning. By the way, let me introduce myself, I'm Sailor."
Van Siter unceremoniously took the "Perfect Dinosaur Crystal", took a careful look at Fang Senyan, and said seriously, "Indeed, it's you, Lieutenant Colonel Sailor. I saw your information on the internal intelligence last time. If that's the case, then I'll trust you this once. Can I take my personal belongings with me?"
"No problem," Fang Senyan said. "Also, you'd better leave discreetly, the fewer people who see you, the better."
