Chapter 1435 Enough Evidence
Chapter 1436 Enough Evidence

"What... what's going on?" Old Wang squatted beside the generator, watching the blue crystal liquid condense into silver crystals on the terminals. "Blue crystal can actually be used as a temporary power source?"

Aria immediately pulled out her notebook to write: "The log from 20 years ago only mentioned improving purity, not energy properties. This is a new discovery!"

She looked up at Charlie.

"Encrypting and storing this data might be useful in countering the Night Owls. They certainly don't know that the Blue Crystal can provide power, so we can take them by surprise next time."

Inside the command tent, Aria plugged the encrypted USB drive into the computer. The cracking program ran for ten minutes before finally popping up the folder.

Inside are Douglas's financial statements for the past six months, with each transfer note indicating that it was funded by Blue Crystal Experiments, totaling 12 billion US dollars. The receiving accounts are all shell companies owned by Night Owl.

Even more astonishingly, the information about the anonymous consortium from 20 years ago retrieved by the console pointed to the Douglas family's early business, a mining company founded in 1990, whose address completely overlapped with the initial address of the Night Owl Experiment Base.

"The evidence is sufficient."

Qin Hao instructed Charlie to send the transaction records, the recordings of Douglas's communications with Night Owl, and scanned copies of Blackstone's old contracts to international regulatory agencies and the London Metal Exchange.

Less than half an hour later, the exchange issued an announcement: "Douglas' affiliated institutions are suspected of market manipulation and funding illegal organizations. Their accounts have been frozen, and short positions have been forced to liquidate."

The price of gold in London on the screen seemed to be accelerated, soaring from $2380 all the way up. When Lin Zhendong's video call came in, his voice was full of excitement: "Kid Qin! I made an extra 8 million by adding to my position! Douglas's short positions have been liquidated, and three of his institutions have filed for bankruptcy!"

"It's not over yet."

Qin Hao stared at Douglas's holdings data on the screen.

"His Swiss bank account has been frozen, and Night Owl's funding chain has also been cut off. Ali just reported that the masked man couldn't contact the person who was supposed to pick him up after he escaped, so he probably has no money left."

Charlie leaned over, pointed at the news feed, and laughed out loud: "Boss, Douglas's private jet has been seized now. The media says he owes $38 billion and his house is going to be auctioned off!"

"This is just the beginning."

Qin Hao turned off the screen and picked up the old Blackstone contract.

"The core members of Night Owl are former executives of Blackstone. They led the experiment 20 years ago. Now they want to monopolize copper mines with Blue Crystal. It won't be that easy."

Inside a tribal tent in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Elder Marcus hosted a victory celebration. Beer bubbled in earthenware pots, and the aroma of roasted meat filled the tent.

“Mr. Qin, thanks to you, my nephew was able to return safely.” Marcus held up the terracotta pot.

"I've made my decision. From now on, I will supply you with 4000 tons of copper ore every year in exchange for 600 tons of cobalt ore. I will also allow you to build temporary processing sites around the tribe!"

Sofia sat down next to Qin Hao, took a sip of beer, and whispered, "The Predator's intelligence network has found that the Night Owl's next target is the Zambian copper belt. They want to build a blue crystal contamination device there to pollute the copper mines and then monopolize the supply."

Qin Hao nodded, about to speak, when his phone suddenly received an anonymous text message with only one sentence: "The true power of the Blue Crystal has not yet been revealed. See you next week at the Zambian copper mine."

The attached photo shows a large-scale blue crystal storage tank with a familiar figure standing next to it. Although blurry, it can be identified as the masked man who escaped earlier, holding a document labeled "Contamination Plan".

"It seems they haven't given up yet."

Qin Hao showed the text message to Ailiya.

"You and the technical team should expedite the research on the energy properties of Blue Crystal. Ali should take the Hyena team to the copper mines in Zambia to guard the area. Pang Wanshan should be instructed to block border logistics and prevent Night Owl's equipment from being transported in."

Aria grasped his hand, her eyes shining: "Don't worry, we've figured out the energy properties of Blue Crystal. Next time they use electromagnetic interference, we can use Blue Crystal to power our counterattack."

The campfire outside the tent was still burning, its sparks drifting into the night sky, merging with the miners' lamps of the Katanga Plateau.

Looking at the distant mine, Qin Hao knew that the game over the blue crystal was not over yet.

The Night Owl's pollution plan, the true purpose of the Blue Crystal, the complete secret of the experiment 20 years ago, and the conglomerate hidden behind it all await his discovery.

But he wasn't flustered. He had evidence, comrades like Arya, Charlie, and Ali by his side, and the support of the tribe and the predators. Even if Night Owl and Douglas had other tricks up their sleeves, he was confident he could handle it.

At the temporary command post in the Zambian copper belt, a map of mineral distribution was pinned to a canvas with thumbtacks, and the logistics channels circled in red were particularly eye-catching.

Qin Hao pressed his finger on Entrance No. 3 on the map and looked up at Alibaba.

"The first infrared warning line will be extended two kilometers outside the entrance. The second minefield will be filled with directional mines to protect vehicles from harm. We need to capture them alive and find out about the remaining strongholds of the Night Owls."

As soon as Ali nodded, the video call in the tent rang, and Pang Wanshan's face appeared on the screen. The background was his logistics dispatch center, where employees were checking vehicle information around the computer.

"President Qin, all logistics vehicles are equipped with identity verification chips. The chips record the driver's fingerprints and vehicle numbers. If an unauthorized vehicle approaches the entrance, the system will sound an alarm."

He paused for a moment and then pulled up a form.

“I’ve also marked the characteristics of the three vehicles that were previously hijacked by the Night Owl. They are all black heavy trucks with the number '73' at the end of their license plates. Please keep an eye out for them.”

"Thanks, Mr. Pang."

As soon as Qin Hao hung up the phone, Ailiya's remote communication came in. On the screen, she had a sample of the blue crystal chip in front of her and was holding tweezers in her hand.

"Qin Hao, the anti-jamming chip is ready. It's made by mixing blue crystal powder with copper ore powder, which can shield the Night Owl's electromagnetic interference device. Have each of Ali's team members carry two, one to be inserted into the detector and the other to be clipped to their tactical belt."

She paused, then picked up a set of drawings.

"Also, the Night Owl's contamination device definitely needs a Blue Crystal core to drive it. I've marked the location of the core; it's on the circular interface on the front of the device. Destroying it will stop the device."

The tent door was flung open, and a gust of sand swept in.

Karu, the tribal chief, entered with fifty warriors, each carrying a clay pot from which pale green smoke billowed.

"Mr. Qin, this is a copper ore smoke bomb from our tribe. It will explode when it comes into contact with the light of the blue crystal, and it can suppress radiation."

He pointed to the patterns on the pottery jar and said, "Ancient books say that blue crystal is the core of the earth's energy. Our ancestors saw it underground in Zambia, but they didn't dare to dig it up. This time, I'm helping you to protect this copper mine and prevent the Night Owls from ruining it."

Qin Hao took a ceramic jar, shook it, and heard a soft crackling sound coming from inside. "Thank you, Chief Karu. Your men will be patrolling together with Ali's team, focusing on entrance number three. Boss Pang said the Night Owl might come from that direction."

The next morning, as soon as the barriers at entrance number three were raised, six black heavy trucks drove up, each bearing the logo of Pangjia Logistics.

"Parking verification!"

Security personnel stepped forward and aimed the scanner at the driver's cab.

Just then, a red "Unauthorized" warning suddenly popped up on the screen. Before he could even shout, the driver suddenly pressed the black device in his hand. The detector went black with a sizzle, and the radiation level instantly jumped to 1.5 Sv/h.

"It's an electromagnetic interference device! Activate the anti-interference chip!"

Ali's roar echoed in the corridor. The team members immediately took out the Blue Crystal chip and inserted it into the equipment. The detector screen returned to normal instantly, and the jammer fell to the ground with a thud and stopped responding.

The tarpaulin on the truck bed was suddenly ripped open, and a dozen or so people in black tactical uniforms jumped out, carrying guns and small metal devices—the Night Owl's contamination devices.

"Fire!" Ali gave the order, and bullets swept towards the Night Owl members, with both sides exchanging fire at the entrance.

In the chaos, a masked man stepped out of the last truck, clutching a bomb detonator. His voice came through the cover: "Qin Hao! You destroyed Blackstone's money laundering network and thwarted Night Owl's Blue Crystal Project. Today, I'm going to make the entire copper mine belt pay with your life!"

Qin Hao narrowed his eyes, raised his hand and flicked out a tactical dagger, which just happened to cut through the other party's mask, revealing a familiar face. It was Karen, the former second-in-command of Blackstone Group.

The old black stone badge on his waist was exactly the same as the one on the masked man's ring.

"Karen? Didn't you die in the Blackrock infighting?"

Karen touched the wound on her face, her eyes sinister: "That good-for-nothing Victor Chen couldn't even protect a money laundering network, and I had to clean up the mess!"

"The Night Owl was built by Blackstone to continue the Blue Crystal experiment. You cut off our funding and destroyed our mines; today, you will die here!"

"Your funding has long since dried up."

Charlie's voice came through the communicator.

"Douglas's deputy was captured by the Zambian government forces. He revealed that the blue crystal core you requested hasn't arrived yet and is currently stuck at the border. You think Douglas, now bankrupt, would still send you money? Don't dream!"

Karen's expression changed, and she suddenly grabbed the pollution device next to her and ran towards the core area of ​​the copper mine belt.

"Even without the core, I will detonate the device and contaminate the entire copper ore belt!"

Qin Hao immediately gave chase, while Ali and his team circled around to intercept him.

The ground in the core area was already emitting a ghostly blue light. Karen stuffed half a blue crystal fragment into the device interface, and the detector beeped wildly, with the radiation value jumping to 2.0 Sv/h.

The surrounding copper mines began to turn black, a sign of radiation contamination.

"Qin Hao! Quickly use the Blue Crystal Chip to get close to the core of the device!" Aria's voice came from the communicator.

"The chip's energy can counteract the circuitry; simply inserting it will stop it from operating!"

Qin Hao dodged Karen's dagger and kicked him in the knee. Karen staggered and fell to the ground, dropping the remote control.

"Ali, get the chip!" Qin Hao shouted, bending down to pick up the remote control.

Karen suddenly lunged at him, grabbing his leg tightly: "If I can't have it, neither can you!"

"boom!"

With a muffled thud, Ali's teammate struck Karen on the back of the head with the butt of his rifle, and Karen collapsed to the ground.

Alibaba immediately handed the Blue Crystal chip to Qin Hao, who took it and inserted it into the circular interface on the front of the device.

White smoke billowed from the line instantly, the eerie blue light gradually went out, and the radiation level of the detector dropped little by little, eventually stopping at 0.4 Sv/h.

"The device has stopped!" Old Wang ran over carrying the detector, looked at the values ​​on the screen, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, it did not cause widespread pollution. Only a few tons of copper ore in the surrounding area were affected. It can be cleaned up."

Ali's team found an iron box in Karen's command vehicle containing yellowed experimental logs. Old Wang flipped through a few pages and suddenly exclaimed, "President Qin! The experiment from 20 years ago wasn't about improving gold purity at all; it was about developing blue crystal energy!"
The Douglas family's early funding was aimed at monopolizing energy; later, due to uncontrolled radiation, they shifted their focus to gold refining! The Night Owls were a secret organization established by Blackrock to continue their experiments!

Qin Hao took the logbook, his fingertips tracing the words "The core of the blue crystal comes from deep underground in Zambia," and looked up in the direction of the copper ore belt: "So the source of the blue crystal is here. No wonder the Night Owl is keeping an eye on this place."

Three days later, at the temporary command post.

As Karen was being taken away by the Zambian government forces, she was still yelling, "There are still remnants of the Night Owl! You'll regret this sooner or later!"

Qin Hao ignored him, and Charlie handed him a document: "Boss, the $5 million that Douglas transferred has been frozen, the Night Owl has fewer than 10 survivors, and Interpol has issued an arrest warrant."

Furthermore, the International Mining Alliance has sent a cooperation request, wanting to join our Clean Mining Alliance.

During the video call, Elder Marcus held up the cooperation agreement: "Mr. Qin, our tribe has already spoken with three neighboring tribes, and they all want to join the alliance. In the future, the copper mine supply will be more stable, and your cobalt and gold mines can also be sold to various parts of Black Continent through our channels."
