After bidding farewell to Mr. Li, Luo Zheng and Lan Xue drove away. This ti, their mission was to protect a scientist nad Lin Shusen. The Military had developed a top-tier military product, and Lin Shusen was in charge of system synthesis and the final adjustnts. If successful, it would greatly enhance the dostic military technology. Mr. Li did not specify what the product was, and Luo Zheng did not inquire further; he understood that his task was to ensure the safety of Lin Shusen and to prevent outsiders from stealing the results.
Once the mission was assigned, they had to get into action imdiately. Lan Xue took Luo Zheng to the Military Research Institute. There was a security check at the entrance, and after showing their IDs, they were allowed entry. The two headed to the office building. Luo Zheng carefully observed the surroundings; the periter wall was two and a half ters tall with barbed wire on top, and the presence of security guards made unauthorized entry challenging.
At the office building's entrance, soone ca out to greet them. To their surprise, it was Song Yun. Luo Zheng looked at Lan Xue in astonishnt and found that she was just as baffled. Luo Zheng turned his gaze to Song Yun, who also appeared surprised, clearly not expecting them. Seeing Luo Zheng, Song Yun was delighted and quickly adjusted her attitude, saying, "Hello, you're here to protect Mr. Lin Shusen, right? I'm his assistant. I didn't expect it to be you guys."
"We didn't expect it either, lead the way," Lan Xue quickly adjusted her state of mind. Personal grievances aside, the task was to protect Lin Shusen and the research achievents. Everything else had to be set aside for now, with the mission being the utmost priority.
"You're here too, co with ," Song Yun said to Luo Zheng with a smile, her eyes gleaming and her cheeks slightly flushed, as if recalling sothing.
Luo Zheng and Lan Xue exchanged a glance and followed her inside. Song Yun swiped a card for the elevator, which was specially made and would not operate without a card. Each card had restrictions on which floor it could access, ensuring no unauthorized wandering around. The sense of security was very high. They all went down to the third subterranean level in the elevator.
When the elevator stopped, they stepped out and saw an iron door. Between the elevator door and the iron door was a space big enough for four or five people to stand. Song Yun placed her hand on a platform; the infrared scanner and automatic cara scanned Song Yun's eyes and head. After comparing her details with the system database, the security system automatically proceeded to voice verification. Once Song Yun's voice matched, the iron door automatically opened, revealing a passage.
"Fingerprint, iris, skull, and voice quadruple scans must confirm identity before passage," Song Yun explained. "Co on, you two should also back up your data. Otherwise, it's tough getting in and out."
"With such advanced security asures, why do you still need us?" Lan Xue asked in surprise, unmoved.
Song Yun smiled faintly and said, "These are all inanimate objects. In front of a real expert, they're as fragile as paper. There are ways to infiltrate, you guys know this, don't you?"
The relationship between the two was neither good nor bad, but they targeted each other because of Luo Zheng. In the face of the mission, Lan Xue did not refuse. With Song Yang's help, she and Luo Zheng scanned their fingerprints, voices, and skulls, backing up their data into the database. They walked forward, and Luo Zheng noticed several red laser beams crisscrossing the corridor. He touched the sides, finding them made of blast-resistant steel, as was the flooring. Song Yun explained, "These are blast-resistant steel plates, infrared laser beams. If there's an illegal intrusion, these lasers are capable of killing a person. Your data has been entered into the database, so you can co in."
Luo Zheng had heard of this technology. He glanced at a sowhat show-off Song Yun, noncommittally nodded. Song Yun perked up and continued excitedly, "This security technology was my idea, and I also developed the managent system. How about that, impressive, right?"
"If you're so capable, why did you ask for our help?" Lan Xue retorted coolly.
Song Yun did not respond but turned to Luo Zheng and walked forward. Seeing that Luo Zheng was unmoved, she beca slightly depressed and said, "The exit of the passage is just ahead. Elder Lin is in the lab. He sent to greet you. He's very busy right now and can't et you. If you need anything, let know, and I'll try to fulfill your requests."
"I need the details of everyone who can enter here," Lan Xue said coldly. "Also, is this place connected to the external network?"
"Of course, but it's a separate system not all computers are connected to the outside. Additionally, our research equipnt runs on our own developed system, its source code never released. The possibility of system infiltration is zero. You know my computer skills, so don't worry about that," Song Yun said proudly, looking at Luo Zheng, who seed utterly disinterested, making her even more depressed.
"Are you in charge of security, or am I?" Lan Xue coldly countered.
"Fine, you have the final say," Song Yun said irritably. "Co follow , I'll show you around."
Luo Zheng looked at Lan Xue noncommittally, and she nodded. They followed Song Yun on a tour. The underground space was six ters high and nearly ten thousand square ters, divided into several functional rooms. People were working in these rooms, wearing dust-proof white lab coats and masks, ignoring Luo Zheng who was passing by in the corridor.
After the tour, Song Yun led them to a rest area, poured a glass of water for Luo Zheng, and directed Lan Xue to the water dispenser saying, "Help yourself. Now that you've had a look around, do you need to do anything else? If not, I'll leave."
"Bring us the docunts first to look at. Also, when can Elder Lin co over?" Lan Xue said coldly.
"I don't know. When he's finished, he'll naturally co and see you. I'll go get the docunts. Make yourselves comfortable," Song Yun said coldly as she turned to leave.
Seeing Luo Zheng handing over the water, Lan Xue smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm not that petty. You've seen the situation around here, any thoughts?"
"There are three ways to steal the research outcos: network infiltration, physical theft, and coercion of personnel with access to the research. If you include other thods, then it's transporting them out successfully. In front of a master, any of these thods can succeed. This is my weak point, how we proceed is up to you," Luo Zheng said openly.
"You haven't had ti to train in this area. Grandfather assigned this mission to our team probably because he wanted you to get real-world training to grow quickly. Later, let Ghost Hand and the other two stay outside on standby, monitoring the surroundings. It looks like we're going to be busy. Maybe you should call back ho?" Lan Xue suggested.
"Alright," Luo Zheng said as he took out his phone to check it, but there was no signal. He speculated that it must have been blocked. After pondering for a mont, he said, "The security asures here are not bad, should we get to know them better first?"
"Yes, that's necessary. I wonder if there's been any leak in the defenses. We must adjust key areas to prevent any mishap," Lan Xue said, checking her own phone, which also had no signal. Her brow furrowed slightly. The signal being blocked could be good, but in case of an ergency, it would be impossible to communicate with the outside.
