Quick Transmigration: Forbidden to Covet Beautiful NPCs

"Dean," a burly man said, coming in from the side, "the tails have all been cleaned up."

"Did you leave behind what you were told to leave behind?"

The man lowered his head. "It's already placed where you indicated."

Fei Zhi casually folded and placed the blanket under his hand. His expression was calm. Seeing that the other person had not left, he looked up and stared directly at him.

"There's one more thing," the man said in a low voice, "Your student, Li Yangyan, is looking for you."

"He encountered a problem; he couldn't contact the person who was sent in, and he asked if you wanted to send another one in."

Fei Zhi was somewhat surprised, not expecting his student to be so useless, unable to even accomplish such a small task.

His voice was hoarse and weak from age, "Send another one over there to check on the progress."

The Hongyang Biological Research Institute was so heavily guarded and secretive that he had no idea how far his exceptionally talented student had progressed.

He needs more test subjects; he can't be allowed to ruin the plan.

"Send Chen Liwu to the new laboratory to speed up the process."

His last disciple was quite talented, but his body was a bit weak, and Fei Zhi liked to order this student around.

"Yes." The man left silently.

"Sigh..." Fei Zhi tilted his head and sighed. He was still useless. The research progress was too slow.

His health is deteriorating day by day, and the pace must be accelerated.

Shen Ru stood on the open-air balcony upstairs, her figure hidden behind the flower stand, watching the back of the man in black disappear into the distance.

"It seems this is why Lu Yuan specifically sent you here."

Beside Shen Ru, a man who was almost invisible pulled up his hood. If one's gaze hadn't fallen on him, one would have almost forgotten that such a person was there.

He gave a soft "hmm".

Shen Ru didn't mind; that's just his personality.

"I'm going out for a bit, I'll be back later." He informed Shen Ru and then set off to track her down.

Sun Mo followed the man like a ghost from a distance until they arrived at an abandoned factory in the suburbs.

They had heard about the factory when they first arrived, and that a fire broke out before the virus outbreak, killing many people, and the cause of the fire was still unknown.

Sun Mo hid behind a tree and watched the man arrive at the back warehouse, where the door still bore the marks of fire.

The warehouse door opened, and the man went inside.

After standing there for half an hour, Sun Mo sneaked in and placed a number of listening devices and cameras in inconspicuous locations before quickly leaving.

……

"Ding-"

Lu Yuan took out his communicator; it was a message from Sun Mo.

He followed Shen Ru and the others to investigate Dean Fei Zhi, and they have obtained some evidence of the establishment of illegal private laboratories, which they have submitted to their superiors.

This evidence was enough to arouse suspicion from above, prompting them to send more professional people to investigate.

With this good news, Lu Yuan decided to monopolize Wu Tongxue's few leisure hours every night.

"Captain Lu, you are truly dedicated to your duty." Xie Lang put his hands in his pockets, leaned against the wall to relax slightly, and lifted his eyelids to look at him.

Lu Yuan replied calmly, "It's my duty."

Xie Lang found Lu Yuan's presence very annoying, but he couldn't get rid of him, so he gradually learned to ignore him, only making sarcastic remarks when he was really annoyed.

Such as now.

Xie Lang ignored Lu Yuan. He had just finished his work and came over to wait for Wu Tongxue to have dinner together.

His gaze swept aimlessly around, drifting without any clear purpose.

Unexpectedly, a new face appeared, a sweet-looking girl, chatting and laughing with a core researcher.

Xie Lang didn't want to move, so he turned slightly to the side, choosing the closest option, and asked Lu Yuan, "Who is she? When did she arrive?"

Lu Yuan looked over and said succinctly, "A new researcher."

That's all I'll say.

Xie Lang instantly lost the desire to talk to him. Forget it, he'd go back and investigate himself.

Isn't this newcomer's social skills a bit too strong?

He observed the area for a while, feeling rather bored, until Wu Tongxue came out, at which point he turned his gaze away.

Wu Tongxue came out and checked the time. Sure enough, it was lunchtime. She wasn't surprised to see Xie Lang there. "Let's go to the cafeteria."

Li Tao was chatting with her colleagues when she looked over and exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, is this Professor Wu? He's so young!"

His colleagues followed and exclaimed, "Don't let his young appearance fool you, Professor Wu is incredibly capable!"

"Really!"

"Of course it's true, let me tell you..."

Li Tao had been here for several days, and this was the first time she had met Wu Tongxue and had the opportunity to observe her up close.

Her smiling gaze fell on the two men closely following behind her. Her eyes flickered slightly as she listened attentively to her colleague's words, occasionally letting out a surprised exclamation in response.

Not far away, someone was constantly organizing documents by the cabinet, and he could hear all the sounds around him.

Almost no one noticed him.

Lu Yuan glanced at him out of the corner of his eye as he turned the corner, their eyes met, and his expression remained as calm as ever before his figure quickly disappeared.

Lu Yuan is a responsible person who is meticulous in every task. For reasons that cannot be explained, he is even more concerned about this mission.

Every living being that enters the territory of the Hongyang Research Institute, even a dog, will be thoroughly investigated.

Better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free; anyone with suspicion will be targeted and monitored.

Wu Tongxue quickly finished her meal in the cafeteria and immediately returned to her office to start typing on her computer keyboard.

Xie Lang had no choice but to return to the laboratory and continue working.

In the office, Lu Yuan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window for a while, and only went over when he saw that Wu Tongxue was not so busy anymore.

Hearing footsteps, Wu Tongxue looked up at him.

"The investigation into that matter has already begun, and Dean Fei Zhi will arrive at the central base in half a month."

After hearing this, Wu Tongxue thought for a while and nodded, "Sit down and rest for a while, I'll take another look at the new data."

After saying that, he buried his head and continued looking at the computer.

Lu Yuan paused for a moment, then went to sit on the sofa and kept quiet.

Wu Tongxue has even less free time today.

Not wanting to disturb his work, Lu Yuan had no choice but to sit quietly on the sofa.

……

Two weeks later, upon hearing that Fei Zhi had arrived at the central base, Wu Tongxue finally stopped working and arranged some time to rest.

Moving her aching shoulders, Wu Tongxue walked to a chair and sat down. "Now that the teacher is back, I should go see him."

Lan Kong hasn't been out on fieldwork for several days, and unfortunately, he can't see Wu Tongxue even a few times a day. She wanders around the research institute like a ghost.

She pulled up a chair and sat down opposite Wu Tongxue, her expression wistful. "I want to go too!"

Wu Tongxue shook her head. "You stay here and don't go out for the time being."

Aside from his place, Lan Kong could be in danger wherever he went. The zombie apocalypse theory was now widespread, and Lan Kong's abnormality was easy to spot.

"Xie Lang, you stay in the lab and maintain the current progress."

Xie Lang was feeling a little down: "...Okay."

"Lu Yuan and I will be back soon. You two stay here and keep an eye on things. Don't let anything happen to the research institute."
