I, holding the script, kidnapped the male protagonist's benefactor

Ji Yu found that it was good to talk to smart people. He just gave a direction and Cheng Mo figured it out immediately.

Important experimental data like this are usually only known to Cheng Mo himself.

But if the people you trust are keeping an eye on it, it will be hard to prevent it.

This teaching assistant knows everything about Cheng Mo.

He could always make an excuse, saying that something went wrong in the laboratory, and he could enter and leave as he pleased.

Besides, Cheng Mo couldn't hide the fact that he had discovered a better extract from people close to him, and he couldn't avoid it when doing experiments.

"So as long as he steals the experimental data, he can apply for a patent for the extract, which will prevent you from using it to produce antibiotics."

Zhuang Yue paused and added slowly.

"Unless you negotiate with him and buy the right to use his patent."

When I thought about it this way, I suddenly felt very uncomfortable.

"Does this teaching assistant have a deep hatred against you? He actually uses such a despicable method to target you." Zhuang Yue found it unbelievable.

Although she hadn't spent much time with Cheng Mo, she could tell that he was a good person.

Even though Yang Xu made a mistake last time and was scolded by him, he just let him go back and rest.

"I promoted him."

Cheng Mo didn't believe it at first, but then he thought that when the interests are high enough, a person's character will indeed be tested.

"That's even more abominable. You did him a favor, but he repaid you with hatred. This kind of person will not have a good ending!"

Zhuang Yue was angry on behalf of Cheng Mo.

"He should not be the real mastermind behind this." Yuan Shenghe said calmly.

"A person without any background, how can he be so confident and capable? He thinks he can sit back and relax by playing some tricks. There must be someone backing him up."

This really hits the nail on the head.

According to the plot extracted by the system, the mastermind behind the scenes was a foreigner.

Ji Yu actually already had someone he suspected.

Among Lu Xingchen's targets, Andrew is the only foreigner.

Andrew is extraordinary both in terms of wealth and family background.

With him and the Harris family as his backers, the assistant coach can easily escape to a foreign country and live a carefree life.

And if it is really Andrew and his family, then the patent for this extract is not in the hands of the assistant teacher, but probably in the hands of Andrew or the Harris family.

No wonder Cheng Mo had to swallow his anger and cooperate with them in the novel.

“If we want to find out the real mastermind behind this, we can’t alert him now,” Yuan Shenghe concluded.

Cheng Mo said: "Now that we know who it is and their target, we must find out the person behind him."

However, the most urgent task is to retrieve the information copied by the teaching assistant.

We can't let him take it out and give it to someone else.

Otherwise, if the other party uses this information to apply for a patent, it will be useless even if they find out the mastermind behind it.

"The USB flash drive is so small. If he doesn't admit it, how can we find it?" Zhuang Yue asked.

"That's easy." Ji Yu said, "Just watch the surveillance. He would definitely not leave anything on his body during the sudden body search to be on the safe side. We just need to watch the places he passed by and then conduct a focused check. We should be able to find it."

"If we really can't find it tonight, then tell everyone to give us a day off tomorrow. Then the person who's anxious might be the teaching assistant."

When everyone heard this, they thought it was a great idea and it could also be used to test the teaching assistant.

Cheng Mo went to find everyone immediately.

Ji Yu and the others also followed.

"Thank you for your hard work tonight. I have decided to give everyone a day off tomorrow. Those who want to leave can leave now, but because some important information is missing from the lab, and the person who destroyed the power room has not been found yet, everyone needs to check their belongings again before leaving. I hope you can understand."

Everyone was very happy because they had a holiday and received more salary.

It was suggested to check personal belongings. They work in a laboratory and there are strict regulations that they are not allowed to take things from the laboratory out, and no one has any objection.

Only the teaching assistant felt suddenly depressed when he heard the news.

Cheng Mo actually knew that the laboratory data was lost?

He had copied the information and hid it, so there was no need to worry about it being discovered.

He had originally planned to take the things out when he went to work tomorrow, or when he had some free time in a couple of days.

But if he had a day off tomorrow, he was worried that something else might happen.

At this moment, he didn't know that his reaction had been seen by others.

Cheng Mo has confirmed that the USB flash drive he copied is not with him now.

Otherwise, when he heard that he could leave, his first reaction should have been joy.

When Cheng Mo said that they could leave, some people were preparing to leave work.

Teaching assistants are obviously not among them.

"Thank you for your hard work tonight. There's nothing else to do next. If you have something to do, you can leave work first."

Cheng Mo came up to him, his tone no different from usual.

The assistant coach certainly didn't want to leave right now, so he made an excuse: "Such a big thing happened tonight, and I am also somewhat responsible. I can't let it go now."

"You are thoughtful." Cheng Mo nodded.

The teaching assistant couldn't help but ask again: "Professor, you just said that the laboratory lost some important information, what happened?"

"I suspect that they made such a big scene just to steal the experimental data, so I plan to have the security guards search the base for possible hidden objects."

"What about Yang Xu? Didn't he steal something from the lab? It has nothing to do with him?"

"If it was him, then he would be even less likely to destroy the power room, which would make it easier to expose himself."

The teaching assistant's heart sank.

In order to enter Cheng Mo’s exclusive laboratory, the power of the base must be destroyed.

But it is impossible for the base's power supply to have problems for no reason, so everyone will definitely be suspicious.

That's why he used Yang Xu to divert everyone's attention. It would be even better if he could take the blame for him.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Mo didn't believe it at all and even suspected that the experimental data was lost.

The teaching assistant became anxious when he saw the security guard's search area.

"Professor, is it possible that Yang Xu is also an accomplice?"

Cheng Mo glanced at him and said, "What you said is possible. I will ask someone to ask Yang Xu. Don't worry, I will find out who dared to do it in my laboratory. I will not let him go."

After saying that, he suddenly stared at the teaching assistant.

"What's wrong with you? Why is your forehead sweating so much?"

The teaching assistant quickly raised his hand and wiped his forehead, explaining, "Maybe I'm a little tired from working overtime recently."

"Then you should go back early. I'll give you a week off. You don't have to come anymore. Just have a good rest at home."

"No, professor, I'm not particularly tired and don't need to rest for so long." The teaching assistant said hurriedly.

He couldn't wait even a day, let alone a week, by which time the flowers would be cold.

Cheng Mo pulled the corner of his mouth, "This is really rare. You don't want to take a week off. I never thought you would love work so much."

The teaching assistant smiled awkwardly, "Now is a critical stage. After all, the antibiotics we develop will benefit mankind. I also want to witness history."
