“It's all smoke inside! It must be on fire! Go in and save them!” The researcher fled in a panic and did not notice what went on in the research room. Anyway, they only saw billowing smoke. Then, everyone started to run out. As for what happened in the research room, no one knew. When he heard there was a fire in the research room, Fabio sweated profusely. In the past, he and his men just slacked the days away and got paid without doing much. Today, however, this unexpected incident had sounded the alarm bells for them! He grabbed the researcher by the collar and asked anxiously, “Where’s Madam Johnston? Did you see her?” “I don’t know. Everyone’s busy running. The smoke is too thick. I can’t see clearly. I don’t know where she is,” the researcher said helplessly, his face pale with fright. “A bunch of cowards!” Usually, Fabio acted like a loafer since he was just waiting for his paycheck every month. However, in this unexpected situation, he was surprisingly motivated.
“It’ll sting at first and it’ll feel cold after a while, so bear with it.” The ointment had been warmed by the temperature of Philip’s palm. He dipped it with his finger and gently smeared it on Wynn’s neck. Philip did his task very seriously. Wynn did feel the irritation at the beginning, but she slowly felt her neck become cold. Perhaps the medicine was too good or it was purely psychological, but after the application, Wynn felt that the wounds on her neck were less painful. The bruises even seemed lighter. “Done.” Philip kept the ointment and subconsciously blew on Wynn’s neck. With his cool breath combined with the medicine on her neck, Wynn shuddered and felt as if many ants were crawling on her neck. When it was almost done, Wynn handed a box of tissues to Philip. “Uh, what’s up?” Philip did not understand Wynn’s gesture. “To wipe the sweat off your forehead.” Philip smiled slyly. “That’s not fair. You should do it for me.” Wynn rolled her eyes at him, st
“What are you talking about?” Philip chuckled and glossed over it. “Stay here. I’ll go there alone.” “The scene might get a bit bloody later, so it’s not suitable for a woman like you to be there. What if you suffer from psychological trauma?” Philip explained. After all, there was a dead guy and another one who was seriously injured. Philip wanted to find out who was the mastermind behind the scenes, and he would definitely use some bloody methods. If he took Wynn with him, it would not be suitable or conducive to Philip’s operation. “But they were here to kill me.” Wynn’s stubbornness flared again. She walked up to Philip, looked at his eyes, and said seriously, “This matter involves me, so I must go!” “Wynn, why won’t you listen to me?” Philip frowned and got slightly angry. He stood in front of Wynn, grabbed her arms, and said, “Be obedient and stay here. I'll deal with it. Trust me.” “No, I want to go with you.” Wynn was adamant, mainly because she was very worri
Juan’s face became sullen, and his eyes were stern. He stared at Philip angrily as he said, “My friend works here. That person told me about it, so I rushed here. Are you suspecting me?” “Who’s the friend?” Philip was relentless. However, at this moment, the door of the director's office was pushed open again. Nina Jacques ran in, flustered. She was nodding and apologizing, “Madam Johnston, I’m sorry. I told Mr. Parker about it.” Nina’s sudden appearance disrupted Philip’s rhythm. Interesting. Philip looked at Juan coldly, then glanced at Nina. This cover was well played. Wynn was also taken aback and asked, “Nina, do you know Juan?” Nina explained, “Well, Mr. Parker has helped me before. We were classmates from high school.” When Nina said this, her face was impassive and her eyes were unblinking as if what she was saying was true. Philip stared at these two people with a frown. He found no flaws. Did Juan really have nothing to do with this? “Juan, I’m warning
Philip nodded, patted Fabio on his shoulder, and said, “Well done. I’ll ask my wife to give you a raise.” Wynn frowned when she heard this. She could hardly wait to trample Philip under the soles of her feet! They were in the company. How could Philip not pay any attention to their image! “Please rest assured, Brother Clarke. All members of the security team will wait for your instructions.” Fabio was full of joy when he heard that he would be getting a raise. He was bursting with energy. “Just guard the door and don’t allow anyone to enter without my permission!” “Yes! Don’t worry, Brother Clarke, we promise to complete the task!” Fabio puffed his chest out, performed a standard salute, then turned his head to say to the staff next to him, “Did you hear what Brother Clarke said? Send 20 men over here quickly and block this floor completely. No one is allowed to enter!” As soon as the team member heard it, he also responded with a salute and hurried away. Philip stood
“Also, before recruiting them into the company, I investigated their backgrounds and there was no problem.” Philip was silent as he looked at the two guys on the ground. He asked, “How are they usually like? Do they interact with other people? Are there any attendance records?” Wynn glanced at Vulture who lay in a pool of blood. Fortunately, the window was open and fresh air could come in. Otherwise, standing in this utility room would be quite scary. “The two of them didn’t really talk much. Their personalities were not bad, but they’re both scientific researchers. As such, their communication skills are quite average. They were mostly focused on research. Generally speaking, the people who were in contact with them are the workers in the laboratory. Access records should be available and can be checked later.” Wynn was right. The people they usually came into contact with were colleagues in the research room, and they did not interact with other colleagues in the company. The
Wynn trembled and suddenly felt a chill running down her back. The security system in the research room was built by a foreign team. It was the most advanced security system in the world, but even so, it was absolutely insignificant in front of these people! “You said they can disguise their faces?” Wynn then recalled the keywords in Philip’s explanation, and a cold sweat drenched her back again. “Well, if my guess is correct.” A flash of chill appeared in Philip’s eyes. He walked up to North Wolf stoically, reached out his hand, and fumbled for a while on his cheek. Then, he pulled the skin on his face and ripped it! Hiss! Wynn went pale with fright. She covered her small mouth, her eyes full of panic! Philip was carrying a human face in his hands! That scene was simply too mortifying and was just like a plot in a TV drama. Wynn was so scared that she quickly closed her eyes, her body shaking like a leaf! Even if she was a little braver than ordinary people, she wo
Philip guessed Vulture’s thoughts and sneered, “You want to know what happened to your companion? Too bad, he’s dead.” How was that possible? When Philip said this, Vulture was full of disbelief. His body suddenly stiffened! He twisted his head and saw North Wolf lying in a pool of blood! Moreover, his true face was revealed! A trace of panic flashed across Vulture’s face. He hurriedly touched his cheek, then sat on the ground like a deflated balloon. He was laughing miserably. The human skin technology in the organization was so advanced. This technology alone could be sold at sky-high prices in domestic and foreign markets, and ordinary people could not discover it! However, the man in front of him had obviously discovered their secret! At this time, Vulture had no more desire to resist. He recalled the terrifying skills of the other party. Only people who had undergone special training would possess such skills! There was such a formidable person in little Beacon!
