Lin Rui looked at the spray bottle again, carefully examining the ingredient list on the packaging: "Is this spray really popular? To what extent?"

Xue Lingxue sensed something was wrong with Lin Rui's tone, and replied suspiciously, "This medicine was first released six months ago, and it's only really become popular in the past two months. Many people in the patient groups I used to join have recommended it, and some people around me are using it too."

Lin Rui's frown finally relaxed a little.

Only been popular for two months? That's not so bad.

Gong Hengdao also said, "Old Xue recommended this Lingyun spray to us in mid-May of this year. He's the executive director of our 'Tianbing Brigade Veterans Association' and has always been very concerned about us comrades suffering from Colonial Syndrome. However, at the end of May, he sent a message in the group saying that this drug might have some side effects and that we should temporarily suspend its use. However, I feel that this drug is very effective for me and I can't stop using it."

Lin Rui had heard of the term "Heavenly Soldiers Brigade". This was the Earth Federation's most powerful special response force, whose members were mainly East Asians and included a large number of elite colonial warriors.

Lin Rui wondered if Xue Bogao had such a background. It seemed his abilities didn't originate from the Security Bureau.

The fact that Xue Bogao was able to become the executive director of the Veterans Association shows that his comrades have great trust in him and that he is very prestigious.

The Tianbing Brigade Veterans Association is no ordinary organization, and there are countless high-level colonial warriors among them.

"I understand." Lin Rui threw the spray bottle in his hand directly into the trash can. "Don't use this medicine anymore. It's not a good thing. If you use it for more than 6 months, it will be very troublesome. And Mr. Gong, regarding the question just now, you should know what I mean, right?"

Gong Hengdao looked at the spray bottle with a look of surprise, then nodded. "I understand. When Xiaoxue asked me to come here, she told me that I wanted to sign an agreement with your Alien Studio, right? As long as you are really sure that my condition can be cured, I can accept it. I have no money, and it is natural for me to work hard for you, but I must get the proper treatment. My martial arts rating is 6SS+, my firearms rating is SSS, and I am all-round in sniping and close combat. My combat power will definitely not let you down.

Xiaoxue also told me that I might have to do some dirty work for you next, but that was no problem. As long as it wasn't something that went against my conscience, I could do any dirty work.

He went bankrupt three years ago and has been involved in the underground mercenary world, having seen all kinds of darkness.

And Xiaoxue's friends can't be that dark.

Lin Rui was very satisfied and gestured to Xue Lingxue to project a document. "Don't worry, Mr. Gong. You're a Lieutenant General with an overall score of SS. Our studio will definitely provide you with appropriate treatment. I will also pay you at cost for all medication and medical treatment. There should be some salary left. Here's the employment contract we've prepared for you. Take a look."

After Gong Hengdao took the electronic employment contract, he looked quite surprised, thinking that this future boss was so confident in his medical skills that he had even prepared an employment contract.

He took a quick look and found that the boss was quite generous. The salary and benefits were much better than those of other companies, and there was a corresponding commission for each mission. Of course, it could not be compared with those dark webs or those mercenary websites.

The advantage of this job contract is that it is stable and there is hope of survival.

Gong Hengdao signed the electronic contract without hesitation.

Gong Hengdao was not worried at all that Lin Rui would cheat him. He was not far from death and had nothing to lose.

If Lin Rui couldn't keep him alive, then the person signing the contract today would be a dead person, and it would be meaningless.

Gong Hengdao felt anticipation in his heart. Could this young man really help him survive?

When the two returned, they also took an Ambola taxi.

"Xiaoxue, immediately arrange for a good underground clinic to give Gong Hengdao a full-body checkup. I need more detailed data on his health. The more detailed the better, so it will be easier to adjust his medication."

Lin Rui sat in the passenger seat and talked while opening the official website of Tianlan Pharmaceutical Company of Tianlan Group to order various medicines for Gong Hengdao.

Gong Hengdao's situation is rather complicated and cannot be solved by using medicinal tea.

Lin Rui had to use advanced alchemy techniques, mixing some modern Western medicines from the Federation with Tianjixing medicines, and concocting them according to specific steps to make pills for Gong Hengdao to take.

I also have to buy a set of "automatic acupuncture machine", preset the parameters and send it to Gong Hengdao.

The colonial and mental changes in Gong Hengdao's body had to be improved and corrected with the help of Tianjixing's acupuncture therapy.

Lin Rui didn't have time to give acupuncture to Gong Hengdao Zheng, but fortunately, the Earth Federation had advanced technology and even had an automatic acupuncture machine that could not only pre-customize parameters but also be remotely controlled.

"Got it, Boss. I'll make arrangements right away."

Xue Lingxue frowned, "Boss, is there something wrong with that spiritual spray?"

From the moment Lin Rui threw the spray bottle into the trash can, Xue Lingxue has been very concerned about this matter.

"Speaking of this, let's talk about it in the work group."

Lin Rui opened the virtual conference room in the Security Bureau’s work group 2.

There are currently only four people in this group, Lin Rui, Xue Lingxue, Zhang Long, and the hacker 'Zhuimi'.

Lin Rui glanced at his sister's profile picture. Lin Xi had given him a big surprise a few days ago.

After the battle at Tianxiang River, Lin Rui finally saw Lin Xi's 'Dragon of Loyalty and Eternal Heart' in the Zhou family cellar.

This dragon is indeed still alive, and it is at the super royal level!

This girl has only been on Tianji Star for a short time, but she already controls a dragon!
Lin Rui is still accumulating soul points to exchange for the Imperial Flame War Dragon, but Lin Xi already has a Level 6 Super Imperial War Dragon.

After Lin Rui @ed everyone, the projections of Zhang Long and Lin Xi appeared in the conference room.

Lin Xi's profile picture was a black mist, and her projected figure was as blurry as her profile picture.

Zhang Longze frowned slightly: "Lieutenant General, I am driving to the port to investigate a case. Is there anything I can help you with?"

He is very busy now. The Third Special Operations Division has arrested fifty or sixty people and they are all being interrogated.
Next we have to start the prosecution process and convict them one by one, which will be very busy.

Lin Rui looked at him expressionlessly: "What's the current situation with the smuggling case in the department?"

“It’s worse.”

Zhang Long had no intention of looking down on Lin Rui. A man who could climb to the position of commander of the Anti-Traitor Bureau in just a few months must have extraordinary abilities.
He reported everything in detail: "We only caught some small fish and shrimp. These people were just scapegoats. They confessed very readily, cleaning up the real big fish. But we are in no hurry to close the case. We will delay it as long as possible. I asked Lao Zhou, and he is not in a hurry either."

Lin Rui nodded slightly. As long as the case was not closed, he could use this case to effectively restrain certain people in the Ninth Base City.

"Then put this smuggling case aside for now, wait and see, and don't worry about the pressure from above."

Lin Rui projected the packaging of the 'Spiritual Charm Spray' into the conference room. "Let's shift the focus of our investigation. I've developed a new direction for the investigation into Xue Bogao's assassination."

Xue Lingxue, who was sitting in the driver's seat of the taxi, couldn't help but tremble.

This Lingyun spray is actually related to her father?
If the automatic driving system had not intervened in time, the luxury business wing car they were riding in would have almost lost control and crashed into the wall.

Zhang Long also looked surprised: "Lingyun? I've seen people using it a lot recently. Is there anything wrong with this medicine?"

"It's a big problem. This spray contains a drug called 'heart-breaking grass.'"

Seeing that Xue Lingxue and Zhang Long were both puzzled, Lin Rui explained, "This is a plant from Tianji Star. 7000 years ago, it was used as a medicine to suppress demonic transformation. 'Broken Heart Grass' was a popular remedy for a while, but later the people of Tianji Star discovered that this drug was highly addictive and had the risk of causing further demonic transformation of the mind and flesh, so they gradually stopped using it.

This drug is very unpopular, and currently not many people on Tianji Star know about it. Only a few ancient sects and powerful people have the secret recipe, which is used to control demonic cultivators and demons. I've encountered it before. When I was in Yinyue County, the uncle and nephew of the Zhu family used this drug to control a large number of demonic cultivators. I don't know how this drug passed the review and was released to the market, but it is obviously problematic.

The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became cold, and even Lin Xi showed surprise in his eyes.

Zhang Long's expression changed slightly. "Lieutenant General, are you sure? Do you know anything about medicine?"

Xue Lingxue clenched her fists, making a series of crackling sounds. "Uncle Zhang, Boss learned his medicine from his father and Professor Sima, and his skills are very advanced. Also, my father recommended Lingyun to many of his old comrades in May of this year, and then informed them at the end of May that there were problems with the medicine. Furthermore, five days before the incident, my father visited Carlon Pharmaceutical Testing Co., Ltd."

Xue Lingxue could recite all of Xue Bogao's whereabouts and experiences before the incident by heart.

Zhang Long pondered for a moment, "After I reopened the investigation into this case, I also looked into the Kallon Company. Four months ago, the company went bankrupt, and the owner immigrated to Planet Xianju 5. I didn't think much of it at the time."

Lin Ruizewei's expression remained calm. "I just did a quick search of our Security Bureau's internal intelligence database. Three drug appraisers from Carlon Pharmaceutical Testing Co., Ltd. were hired to participate in an internal investigation commissioned by the Security Bureau the day before Xue Bogao's incident. They died while carrying out the commission. Because the matter involves the Security Bureau, this information has been encrypted to SS-level clearance, which happens to be out of your reach, Old Zhang."

Zhang Long's eyes gradually became hot, and he realized that there must be something wrong.

"Anyway, let's investigate first, and secretly commission two or three authoritative professional organizations to identify the drug's ingredients."

Lin Rui remained calm. "Even if this matter has nothing to do with Xue Bogao, it is still a major case that threatens social stability and the lives of ordinary people."

Zhang Long was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed and his body jerked back. A sharp gunshot was heard in the virtual conference room.

The expressions of several people participating in the virtual meeting changed.

Xue Lingxue crouched forward slightly and asked, "Uncle Zhang, how are you now?"

"I'm fine!" Zhang Long's figure was projected into the virtual conference room again. "It was a sniper, very powerful. If I hadn't had the 'Divine Gold Skull' implanted, I would have nearly died this time. It seems someone is very dissatisfied with the cases we are investigating."

As he spoke, he pointed to the center of his eyebrows, where there was a bullet hole.
