Rebirth with a Space to Counterattack and Abuse the Scumbag
Chapter 73 Breaking the Impasse: Police Clues and a Glimmer of Hope
The explosion's flames illuminated half the sky, pointing towards the police station! My mind was buzzing, my heart felt like it was being squeezed tightly, and I could barely breathe.
Miya Rin!
He went to the police station!
I rushed towards the direction of the explosion like a madman, completely ignoring the pale-faced man's sinister laughter.
However, when I arrived at the police station, I found that the explosion occurred not at the police station, but in the annex building of the police station.
The building was engulfed in flames, and firefighters were battling the blaze.
I grabbed a policeman and asked incoherently, "Is anyone inside? Is anyone trapped inside?" The policeman shook his head and said that there were some old files inside, and no one was injured.
A huge sense of relief welled up inside me, and I almost collapsed to the ground.
At this moment, Gong Lin walked out of the police station. His expression was somewhat solemn, but he was clearly relieved to see that I was safe and sound.
"I'm so glad you're alright." He hugged me tightly, and I could feel his body trembling.
He whispered in my ear, "I already know who's behind this."
It turns out that Gong Lin discovered a hidden file in the police station's secret investigation room.
This file reveals the existence of an undercover agent within a mysterious organization of the police department, and the explosion of the annex was precisely to destroy this file.
Gong Lin cleverly took advantage of this opportunity, turning the tables on the other undercover agents who were lurking in the police station.
Just when we thought things were turning around, bad news came from the company.
Lin Yumo, although we have discovered her betrayal, she destroyed some important documents before I could deal with her, causing new trouble for the company.
Mr. Gao's brother was terrified and kept shouting that he wanted to sever ties with me and withdraw his investment.
I forced myself to calm down, ready to face whatever comes my way.
I reassured Zhou Yong and the other employees, and began to deal with the mess left by Lin Yumo.
Gong Lin also brought back new clues from the police station, and we finally found a breakthrough.
"It seems the real show has only just begun." Gong Lin looked at a document in his hand, a cold smile appearing on his lips.
The document prominently displayed several familiar photos and names...
One of them was the pale-faced one.
"Tick-tock, tick-tock..." The old-fashioned wall clock chimed rhythmically, its sound particularly clear in the quiet night.
Suddenly, the phone rang shrilly. Gong Lin answered the phone, and his face instantly turned ashen.
"What did you say? They..." A hurried voice came from the other end of the phone. Gong Lin's face grew increasingly grim, and the knuckles of his fingers gripping the receiver turned white.
He hung up the phone, took a deep breath, and said in a heavy tone, "They've kidnapped Boss Gao's brother." My heart tightened. We knew how timid and cowardly Boss Gao's brother was. If he were to be used by the mysterious organization, the consequences would be unimaginable.
“That’s a ruthless move,” I gritted my teeth. “He’s trying to cut off my cash flow completely.” Gong Lin gently patted my shoulder: “Don’t worry, I’ll get him out.” The determination in his eyes gave me a sense of relief, but the anxiety in my heart lingered.
The mysterious organization is like a venomous snake lurking in the shadows, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any moment.
For the next few days, we were racing against time.
Gong Lin uses clues from the police and his own intelligence network to track down the mysterious organization.
I worked hard to stabilize the company's situation and reassure employees, while secretly looking for new partners.
During this period, I received countless calls from business partners whose tone was evasive and whose words revealed hesitation and retreat.
I could feel an invisible pressure approaching, like a giant net slowly tightening.
One evening, Gong Lin took me back to his small apartment. "What would you like to eat today? I'll cook for you."
As I watched him skillfully chop vegetables and cook, a warm feeling welled up in my heart.
In such a tense situation, being able to enjoy a moment of peace with him felt incredibly precious to me.
At the dinner table, we didn't talk about those troubling things; we just chatted about some lighthearted topics.
Gong Lin shared some funny stories from his childhood, while I shared some of the results of planting in the space.
"You know what? I grew a new variety of strawberry in my space today. It's big and sweet!" I said excitedly, picking up a crystal-clear strawberry and holding it to his lips.
He smiled and took a bite, his eyes full of doting: "Mmm, so sweet."
After we finished eating, Gong Lin cleared away the dishes and then pulled me to sit down on the sofa.
"Close your eyes," he said mysteriously.
I obediently did as he said, and felt his warm palm covering my eyes.
"Okay, open your eyes."
I opened my eyes and saw a delicate little cake in front of me with a burning candle on it.
"What day is it today?" I asked, puzzled.
Gong Lin smiled and said, "Let's celebrate getting through another difficult time together." He blew out the candles, then cut a piece of cake and handed it to me.
The cake melts in your mouth, sweet but not cloying, just like the atmosphere right now—warm and sweet.
Just as I was about to say something, a sudden, urgent knocking on the door broke the silence.
Gong Lin's expression instantly turned serious. He got up, walked to the door, and looked out through the peephole.
"Who is it?" I asked nervously. Gong Lin didn't answer, but slowly opened the door…
Standing at the door was Officer Chen, his face pale and his expression anxious.
"Mr. Gong, Miss Miao, something's happened!" He said urgently, his forehead covered in sweat.
My heart sank, and I had a premonition that something bad was about to happen.
Before we could even ask, Officer Chen explained rapidly, "Boss Gao's brother... he's dead!" I felt a wave of dizziness and almost lost my balance.
Gong Lin grabbed me and supported me, his face terribly gloomy.
"How did you die?" he asked coldly, as if the words were being squeezed out from between his teeth.
“Suicide,” Officer Chen’s voice trembled slightly, “In the detention center, he used a bed sheet…”
I covered my mouth in disbelief. Even though Boss Gao's brother was timid, he wouldn't commit suicide!
There must be something fishy going on here!
A cold glint flashed in Gong Lin's eyes. He gripped my hand tightly and gave me a reassuring look.
"I understand, thank you, Officer Chen."
After Officer Chen left, the room fell into a deathly silence.
The death of Boss Gao's brother was undoubtedly a blow to us.
This not only means we've lost a crucial bargaining chip, but also that the mysterious organization is more powerful than we imagined.
The successive blows left me feeling physically and mentally exhausted, as if I were trapped in a huge quagmire, unable to escape no matter how hard I struggled.
"Don't push yourself too hard," Gong Lin said, holding my hand.
"I'm fine." I forced a smile, not wanting him to worry.
"Do you still remember Xiao Kong?" Gong Lin suddenly asked.
I was stunned for a moment. Xiao Kong was the guardian spirit of the space. He had magical abilities and could help me grow all kinds of rare plants.
“You mean…” A glimmer of hope flashed in my eyes.
“That’s right,” Gong Lin nodded. “We might be able to use the resources in the space to find a new breakthrough.”
I immediately perked up, and after communicating with Xiao Kong, we decided to develop a brand new product—a health supplement that can enhance the body's immunity.
The raw materials for this health product all come from rare plants found in the space, and its efficacy far surpasses that of any similar product on the market.
The product caused a huge sensation as soon as it was launched.
Many new business partners have contacted me proactively, expressing their willingness to cooperate.
I felt as if I could see a glimmer of hope, and my heart was filled with hope.
Just when I thought everything was getting better, Gong Lin's phone suddenly rang.
He picked up the phone and his expression instantly became serious.
"What did you say? They..." He hung up the phone, grabbed his coat, and said urgently, "We have to get out of here right now!"
"What's wrong?" A sense of foreboding rose in my heart.
“Officer Chen has discovered a key stronghold of the mysterious organization,” he said, pulling my hand and leading me towards the door. “We must get there immediately!”
We sped along the road to the location Officer Chen had mentioned—a factory in the north of the city.
Officer Chen, accompanied by several fully armed police officers, was already waiting outside the factory. Upon seeing us arrive, he immediately came to greet us.
"Mr. Gong, Ms. Miao, according to our intelligence, important members of the mysterious organization will be gathering here tonight."
Gong Lin nodded, his expression grave: "We must proceed with caution; the other side will certainly be on guard."
We devised a meticulous plan: Officer Chen would lead a group of police officers in a feint attack from the front to draw the enemy's attention, while Gong Lin and I would infiltrate the factory to search for their core secrets.
The factory was pitch black inside, and the air was filled with a pungent, musty smell that made people nauseous.
Gong Lin and I moved forward cautiously, trying not to make any noise.
Suddenly, a faint sound of footsteps came from ahead, and we immediately hid behind a pile of abandoned machines.
In the dim light, I saw several dark figures walk past us, each carrying a weapon and looking wary.
It seems this is indeed the stronghold of a mysterious organization.
Once the shadowy figure had disappeared into the distance, Gong Lin and I continued onward.
We walked through a long corridor and came to a tightly closed iron door.
Gong Lin took out his tools and opened the door lock in no time.
Behind the door was a spacious room, in the center of which sat a huge table piled high with various documents and blueprints.
I recognized them at a glance; these drawings were the ingredient list for the latest product our company is developing!
"They really came for us!" I said through gritted teeth.
Gong Lin picked up a document and began to carefully read through it.
His face grew increasingly grim, and finally he slammed the file onto the table.
"Damn it! They actually..."
I quickly asked, "What's wrong?"
Gong Lin took a deep breath, his tone heavy: "They plan to use our new product to create a massive disaster!"
My heart sank suddenly and a chill ran from the soles of my feet to the top of my head.
These heartless bastards actually tried to use our products to harm people!
Just then, a burst of intense gunfire suddenly rang out outside, indicating that Officer Chen and his team had already engaged in combat with the enemy.
We must find the core secrets of this mysterious organization as soon as possible and then leave this place.
Gong Lin quickly flipped through the documents on the table, hoping to find some useful clues.
Suddenly, he stopped, pointed to one of the documents, and said, "This is it!"
I quickly leaned over to take a look and saw the words "Ultimate Plan" written on the document.
My heart skipped a beat, sensing that this was going to be a shocking secret.
Gong Lin carefully opened the file, but it was completely empty!
"What happened?" I asked, puzzled.
Gong Lin's face turned extremely ugly. He suddenly raised his head and looked at the corner of the room.
I followed his gaze and saw a dark figure standing there, holding a pistol, the muzzle pointed directly at us...
"It seems you've discovered our secret." The shadowy figure's voice was deep and hoarse, sending chills down one's spine.
Gong Lin shielded me behind him, his tone icy: "Who are you?"
The shadowy figure sneered, "Who I am is not important. What's important is that you will all die here today!"
Having said that, he pulled the trigger...
