"Vale Valetti, damn it, it's him!"
Before Lin Yu could react, Fu Luo beca excited and looked toward Pang Kedo.
"I thought sothing was off when I heard you were also nad Valetti, so it turns out you're..."
"Great-Uncle."
Pang Kedo reminded him.
"Great-Uncle?"
Fu Luo was surprised for a mont, then couldn't help but mutter: "Your grandfather and your dad both had kids pretty early, huh..."
Coleman looked at Fu Luo: "You actually know Vale Valetti too?"
Fu Luo waved his hand: "What do you an I know him... I'm not bragging, buddy, but the last person in this world to see Vale Valetti was probably , Furbollo."
"Back then in the vast snowy mountains..."
Then, Fu Luo suddenly realized sothing was wrong.
"Hey, wait a minute, did you just say 'too'?"
"'I also know Vale Valetti'... aning this sister knows him too?"
Fu Luo looked at Lin Yu with disbelief.
Lin Yu shrugged: "Yeah, and I even have his privilege card and notebook in my possession."
Lin Yu once again displayed the [Ancient Notebook] and Vale Valetti's identity card.
And he certainly knew...
Fu Luo would recognize these two items.
But Lin Yu wasn't afraid of creating any "plot holes" by showing them, because Lin Yu had set up the conditions from the very beginning.
Both Li Nian and Chen Zhuo had heard Lin Yu's explanation... these things were given by a "friend."
Going further back, the connection between "Zhu Ming" and "May" was also reliable.
Sure enough, Fu Luo's eyes widened as he looked at these two items.
"How co you have them?"
Hearing Fu Luo's words, Lin Yu calmly turned his head and stared at Fu Luo.
"What do you an how co I have them? These are my things to begin with... are you trying to say they're yours instead?"
As Lin Yu spoke, Fu Luo opened his mouth, then said:
"I... but I saw these things in a previous dungeon... I should have been the last person to see them."
Then, Fu Luo caught on.
"You bought them?"
Lin Yu shook his head: "Not bought, just given to by a friend... or rather, an exchange."
As he said this, Fu Luo looked at Lin Yu in surprise.
"What profession is this friend of yours?"
Lin Yu slightly frowned, appearing as if he had realized sothing.
"Wait, so that ans he must have encountered you in that dungeon... when he went to Zheng City, he also ntioned receiving help from so friends."
"My friend's profession is 'Doctor'."
As Lin Yu spoke, Fu Luo was overjoyed.
"No doubt about it, no doubt about it, sis!"
"'May' right? We have the sa friend... wow, he never told about this!"
"May and I are pure brothers, friendship forged through life and death."
Baron Coleman watched this scene, glanced at Pang Kedo beside him, and couldn't help but sigh emotionally.
"How wonderful."
It seed that because he had also reunited with an old friend, he didn't interrupt their conversation.
Hearing Fu Luo's words, Lin Yu also put on an expression of pleasant surprise mixed with astonishnt.
"So you're the 'extrely intelligent, ticulous detective' that May ntioned."
Hearing Lin Yu's words, Fu Luo seed sowhat embarrassed.
"Really? Brother May said that about behind my back? Oh my, look at this... how embarrassing!"
"To be honest, his wisdom is no less than mine."
Lin Yu smiled and shook his head, saying: "Not at all, different specialties... you helped him a lot in that dungeon."
"And after he ca out, it was thanks to you that he could investigate matters related to the 'Psychological Society'—to be honest, your investigation of 'Fluoxetine' actually helped more."
Lin Yu said with a smile.
But Fu Luo was montarily stunned.
"Fluoxetine? I didn't investigate that... I couldn't possibly dig up information on people from the 'Psychological Society'—they're at the sa level as that Miss Citalopram, right?"
As Fu Luo spoke, Lin Yu was also stunned.
He realized that Fu Luo was absolutely not lying.
Then...
What about Furbollo on the forum?
Lin Yu's thoughts raced, feeling a subtle dissonance that sent chills down his spine.
It was as if there were eyes watching him from behind.
But since Lin Yu was still playing the role of "Zhu Ming," he would absolutely not lose his composure during the performance.
So, Lin Yu simply made the reaction most fitting for Zhu Ming's identity.
"Is that so," Lin Yu slightly frowned, "I really don't know what May is up to, I'll go ask him later."
Then, feeling sowhat unsettled, Lin Yu looked toward Baron Coleman and continued questioning.
"Anyway, since we've ntioned Vale Valetti, the so-called 'forbidden' technology must be..."
"Fear, right?"
As she spoke, she pulled out the [Fear Torch] from her chest.
Baron Coleman nodded: "Correct. Ever since Professor Dort passed away from illness and Vale Valetti disappeared, the technology of 'Fear' has been regarded as forbidden."
"Because it was so long ago, I don't know exactly why it was considered forbidden... but Truth Corporation is a company very persistent about technological innovation. Ordinary accidents or technical defects are simply not enough reason to stop the developnt and research of a new field, new technology, or new energy source."
"So, there must be so extrely huge hidden danger, so irreconcilable contradiction, that made extracting 'Fear' considered the most forbidden of all forbidden things by all researchers and higher-ups."
Hearing this, Fu Luo recalled sothing and couldn't help but sigh.
"I think I might know what that hidden danger is."
Pang Kedo and Coleman imdiately looked at Fu Luo simultaneously, both appearing very concerned.
After all, this was indeed sothing closely related to both of them.
But before Fu Luo could speak, Lin Yu interrupted him.
"Wait, Furbollo, don't talk about that yet..."
"Let him finish first," Lin Yu pointed at Baron Coleman, "on one hand, to see if what you know is truly valuable compared to what he knows, and on the other hand..."
"If it's really valuable, we can sell it for a good price."
Lin Yu said calmly, and Baron Coleman spoke helplessly.
"Madam, you really are a bit too clever."
"Alright... I'll continue—anyway, after discovering the existence of this ghost laboratory and investigating their research direction, I realized it was truly completely over."
"By then I was already A-2 level, just one step away from the company's top tier... holding onto the idea that I didn't want to ruin my future, I decided to gamble."
"So, I found one of the addresses of that non-existent laboratory, investigated it, and also found one of the responsible persons of this laboratory."
"At that ti, the archives showed a certain researcher who had already retired to a leisure position, who had once worked with Professor Dort and was quite prestigious within Truth Corporation."
"And when I personally visited him at his ho..."
Baron Coleman let out a breath.
"I discovered he had died in the laboratory in his own ho."
