Chapter 116 Biological Research Institute
It’s almost noon.
Bu Liangren's figure finally appeared in the pub.
Zhang Hao waved to the other party.
He poured Bu Liangren a glass of wine and asked, "How is it? I watched the press conference and found that you didn't make any progress?"
Bu Liangren drank the wine in one gulp and slammed it on the table, looking extremely angry!
Zhang Hao looked at the other person in surprise. It was rare to see Bu Liangren lose his composure like this.
Something must have happened that was not seen in the police press conference!
As expected, Bu Liangren angrily said, "Anyone with eyes knows that the disappearance of 16 e-sports players is related to the Tanaka Group. I applied for a search warrant from the agency, but it was never issued!"
He lit up another cigarette and let it all out!
"I think the higher-ups have accepted benefits from the Tanaka Group! They are providing protection to the Tanaka Group! They are 16 kids in their twenties, how could !"
"And let me say those useless words at the press conference!"
Zhang Hao listened to Bu Liangren's curse and was secretly shocked. Has the island country's police department become so corrupt?
If I bring up the matter of the serum now, will it attract the attention of the police?
After Bu Liangren uttered out all the words he had been holding back, he asked, "Zhang Hao, why did you ask me to come here today?"
Zhang Hao sighed.
"It's also for the Tanaka Group! I found some clues and wanted to remind you, hoping that the police would pay attention to it. Now it seems..."
Now it seems that the island country's police have also been infiltrated by the Tanaka Group, and even Bu Liangren's search warrant was rejected.
This is corruption at its peak.
Bu Liangren said, "What clues? Although there is no search warrant, the police department is not the only one who has the final say! I will investigate mine!"
Zhang Hao looked at Bu Liangren's determined gaze and sorted out his thoughts.
"I suspect that the Tanaka Group arrested 16 e-sports players for serum testing!"
"Serum test?"
Next, Zhang Hao explained his views to Bu Liangren.
A few minutes later.
Bu Liangren raised the same question as Zhang Hao.
"What is the purpose of the Tanaka Group developing this serum-made artificial warrior?"
Zhang Hao replied: "The goal is not small! That's the only way I can answer."
Bu Liangren was immediately worried.
"It would be great if there was a search warrant!" That way he could enter the Tanaka Group's headquarters building and see what the other party was doing.
Zhang Hao said: "Although there is no search warrant, can we sneak into the headquarters of Tanaka Group and investigate it ourselves?"
Bu Liangren immediately shook his head.
"Large companies like the Tanaka Group have their own security forces, and there are also members of the society hidden among them. There is nothing we can do with just the two of us."
"Is there nothing I can do?"
Bu Liangren replied, "Yes, as far as I know, to enter the headquarters building of the Tanaka Group, you have to go through at least four or five checkpoints, and they are all a combination of facial recognition and voice systems. Outsiders can't get in at all."
Zhang Hao frowned. This would make things difficult.
If the 16 e-sports players were transferred to the Tanaka Group headquarters building, then they would be completely helpless unless the police issued a search warrant.
Zhang Hao quickly searched for a solution in his mind.
Suddenly a name popped up.
Nine beautiful children!
Yes, maybe Kumiko has a solution.
It was she who told me about the serum backlash at the airport, and she could also enter and exit the headquarters building, so she might know something about the situation.
Thinking of this, Zhang Hao and Bu Liangren Ye stopped talking.
He felt it necessary to meet with Kumiko to find out more about the situation.
Bu Liangren said that he would also rush back to the police station to try to get the search warrant. He didn't believe that the entire police station was in cahoots with the Tanaka Group!
The two then separated and went their separate ways.
Zhang Hao called Jiu Meizi and they agreed to meet at the same hotel as last time.
Zhang Hao drove directly there.
Soon, we arrived at the meeting place.
Entered the room.
There is only Kumiko.
Still looking grim and cold, he stood in front of the window wearing a snow-white fur coat.
Zhang Hao closed the door and felt that the atmosphere was strange for a moment, but he quickly shook this thought out of his mind.
Kumiko turned around and smiled, a rare occurrence.
Quite beautiful.
"sit"
She pointed to the sofa against the wall.
"Are you looking for me about the Tanaka Group? Kenichi has already told me about Kato Tiger's assassination attempt on you."
Zhang Hao said: "I didn't come to you for this matter, but I still want to thank you for saving the situation!"
After a pause, he continued, "But do all of you in the Chun Shang Club act in such a unique way?"
The black suit paired with the all-automatic submachine guns is truly impressive.
Kumiko smiled shyly: "It's just that Kenichi likes to ask his subordinates to do this, but other people in the Harujou Society don't do that."
"Okay." It seems that Kenichi is really a wonderful person who likes pomp and circumstance.
Then he mentioned the main purpose of meeting Kumiko this time.
"I want to ask the Tanaka Group about the serum!"
"What did you notice?"
Zhang Hao said: "Is the Tanaka Group planning something? And this plan is related to the serum!"
Jiu Meizi looked at Zhang Hao meaningfully, then nodded.
"You're right. The Tanaka Group should be plotting something. I don't know the details, but I can tell you what I know."
She sat down on the sofa next to Zhang Hao, crossed her long legs, and leaned back slightly, looking like a queen.
Then she began to tell the story.
"Tanaka Group should be a biological research institute established five years ago, and the department is located on the 17th floor of the headquarters building."
Zhang Hao's mind raced, and he asked, "The last time you said Tanaka Kame was ill was also around that time, right?"
Jiu Meizi nodded: "Yes, the original intention of setting up the Biological Research Institute was to develop special medicine for Tanaka Kame to prolong his life. However, one year after its establishment, the 17th floor of the headquarters became a forbidden area of the group, and non-members of the Biological Research Institute were not allowed to enter!"
Zhang Hao asked: "What about you? You are not qualified to enter either?"
"Yes, I don't belong to the Biological Research Institute. I only found out about the serum later by accident."
Zhang Hao digested the information given by Jiu Meizi.
Institute of Biology!
Special medicine!
Forbidden area!
serum!
Is it because of the development of the serum that the Biological Research Institute has become a forbidden area?
Or was the serum developed after it became a forbidden area?
Zhang Hao shook his head, these two points are not important.
The important point is that the Tanaka Group developed the serum at that stage!
But why did they wait three years before starting the live experiment? It was at that time that I was kidnapped by the Tanaka Group.
However, Ichiro Yamamoto said that he was just a lucky draw in the Tanaka Group's ultimate plan.
Caitou's meaning should be that his heart just meets Tanaka Kame's transplant needs.
Perhaps it is because even though the serum was developed in the past three years, it is still unstable and therefore cannot be tested on humans.
This is the normal course of progress for any drug development.
After all, no drug is used in clinical trials from the beginning.
Zhang Hao reasoned over and over in his mind.
Did I miss anything?
Think about it again!
A minute of silence!
Seeing that Zhang Hao frowned, Jiu Meizi tactfully did not disturb him.
Suddenly Zhang Hao knocked on the tea table! Got it!
There is another point that I overlooked!
"VR World"!
This game is funded and developed by Tanaka Group! It is also an important way for Tanaka Group to find highly active players!
He hurried to ask Jiu Meizi for confirmation.
“Do you remember when this VR game was released?”
Jiu Meizi thought for a while and said, "It seems to be around the same time as the establishment of the Biological Research Institute. However, this game was not popular at the beginning because it still had many shortcomings. For example, players often encountered bugs in the game, and the group did not pay much attention to it. After all, there are many industries under its umbrella, and one game is nothing."
"The bug is not important. Think about it again. Was the VR world becoming popular before or after the Biological Research Institute became a forbidden area?"
Now Kumiko couldn't remember clearly and shook her head.
She wondered, "What does the Biological Research Institute have to do with games?"
Zhang Hao’s thoughts came to an abrupt end because he had no idea when VR games would become popular.
But he vaguely felt that there must be some connection between the two.
A game that was not taken seriously at the beginning of its development suddenly became popular all over the world.
And Kumiko said that there were many bugs when the VR world was first designed. Could it be that the game developers suddenly got the hang of it overnight?
The clues are like two ships in the vast ocean, swaying but never able to come together.
Zhang Hao shook off his muddled head and said, "Jiumizi, I hope you can help me find out about the time before and after the VR world became popular and the Biological Research Institute became a forbidden area."
Jiu Meizi replied: "OK, no problem."
This was not a difficult matter for her; she could find out by simply going back and looking through the documents.
After learning about the information about the Institute of Biology, Zhang Hao turned the topic back to the issue of asking Kumiko out today.
"Do you know the whereabouts of those 16 e-sports players?"
He looked at Kumiko, waiting for her answer.
