Is it really normal to contain these anomalies?

However, this caused Lan to complain with some dissatisfaction. After all, she had good intentions, and anyone would behave like this when their kindness was taken for granted.

But the next second, she regained her composure.

After all, this is not so bad.

At least we can talk business now...

"Bai Yu, many children from K Nest No. 1 Middle School have disappeared. Regarding this matter..."

After arguing for so long, this time, Lan didn't beat around the bush and asked directly.

"This has nothing to do with us."

But Bai Yu frowned, knowing that it was useless but still argued.

"Hard to say."

Lan smiled. Bai Yu's identity was too sensitive. It was impossible for K Company not to think that this matter was related to L Company, which was also a member of the World Wings.

After all, there aren't many organizations that can plan a large-scale successful terrorist attack in a city within the Hive...

"What are you going to do?"

Bai Yu also knew that he could not clear himself of suspicion now, so he sighed. This was one of the reasons why he did not want to reveal his identity as a member of L Company from the beginning.

"Well, although I'm sorry, it looks like you'll have to stay at our K Company for a while..."

Lan paused. "At least until the investigation into this case is complete, or until you can prove your innocence."

"We can help,"

Moses, sitting on the sofa with removal workers on either side, spoke for the first time.

"No need. My senior management said that you are already doing a great favor to K Company just by being able to rest well here."

Lan pointed to his headset and then looked away.

"There's nothing we can do. This incident has truly become too serious. Collaborating with the suspect is truly a disgrace to the reputation of our K Company..."

"..."

Bai Yu didn't say anything.

After a few seconds, he slowly scanned everyone in front of him.

"What about the other girl? Since you are the one in charge, you know where that girl is."

"You mean the other survivor, Sudi?"

"So her name is Sudi."

Bai Yu repeated the name in a low voice. This was the first time he knew the name of SCP-049-2.

However, Lan didn't hear the noise, so she continued, "Don't worry, we're just a little concerned about her physical condition, so we took her to the medical department first."

"Oh,"

Bai Yu nodded.

"You'll meet again later..."

After explaining some things, Lan finally left with the others.

But I still stayed...

K Company only left a handful of people in the room. They didn't have much extra manpower to deal with the group of parents outside who were frantically pressuring K Company because of their missing children...

So, finally.

The detective, with no one pressing on her shoulders, came to Bai Yu's side for the first time.

"Bai Yu? Failed?"

she asked softly.

Because it certainly looks like it failed.

Were they all controlled by this company that was heavily affected by the plague and deeply involved?

This is true, but Bai Yu and Little Angela, the clients, did not say anything.

"Hey, Boss, our collection was almost confiscated!"

Even that girl Ezra came over.

"Don't get too close,"

Moses spoke softly, as if she didn't want them to be noticed by the few K Company employees who stayed behind because of their gathering together.

"Ah...sorry!"

However, Ezra still stuffed the file bag into Bai Yu's hand as he left with a smile.

379

Chapter 379: The long-awaited...meeting.

'What's this? ’

Bai Yu looked at the letter sealed with wax in his hand.

It seemed like Moses and Ezra had obtained something extraordinary.

But he had already found the source of the 'investigation of the plague' that he had entrusted them to conduct - that damned cell man.

and so……

What else could it be?

Bai Yu felt the weight of the envelope, and looked up to see Detective Moses who was already close to him.

He saw the meaning of 'Be careful, don't let K Company find out' in her pupils.

"Hey, how did you guys hide this thing?"

Bai Yu didn't understand how Moses and the others managed to avoid K Company's investigation, but in the next moment, he also put the letter away as if by magic.

"Boss, you'd better not worry about it~"

Ezra still spoke like a little girl.

"Why don't you take a look at the information about that thing first? We..."

"cough……"

Moses knocked her, and the next thing she did was to subconsciously take a puff of the pipe that had accompanied her all the way. But she failed, and the thing was firmly confiscated by K Company.

"How do you think I'll find time to watch it in this situation?"

Bai Yu helplessly looked at Ezra, whose mind was wandering. However, he raised his eyes and looked at the group of second-level employees who were listless because they were in K Company...

Ok.

They didn't know that if he wanted to, Bai Yu, who had mastered the spatial anomaly of 'phase', could leave here at any time.

only……

he does not know.

Is all this necessary for the purpose of getting close to K Company?

……

Foundation World, Earth.

No one told the man that there would be an important meeting today at Site-16, beneath Yellowstone National Park in the United States.

However, this wasn't the first time that Clef had felt helpless about something like this... Anyway, now, as an O5 member, he had come uninvited.

"Well, everyone, please continue. Don't let my presence make any of you dumb."

The newly appointed O5 was waving his pass, which was tied with a thin thread, between his fingers. At the same time, without caring whether the person in the darkness opposite him welcomed it or not, he directly pulled out the chair belonging to the No. 11 in the past.

"11..."

A black man in gorgeous clothes was staring at him coldly like a lizard.

"Well, it's me, 12. You look unhappy? Did the Eurobank breakfast you ordered not satisfy you?"

Clef took the empty seat. After changing his appearance again, he now possessed a pair of beautiful golden eyes. At this moment, these eyes scanned each O5 in front of him, including Number One, Number Two, Number Four, Number Seven, Number Ten...

"It seems like I'm not the only one being held down?"

Without waiting for the black man's response, Clef raised his hands again. The innocent expression on his face seemed to reveal a sincere helplessness and sadness at being isolated by his good colleague.

"I can't help it. Your sexual quirks are too weird, No. 11."

O5-2, a European lady in her late 80s, chuckled. "It's hard for us, the aging population, to fit into the world of you young people."

"I'm so sorry, it seems like you can't get into our young people's bar, but I think the cocktail bar in the bar is still suitable for you..."

"..."

Clef put on that fake smile again...

12 couldn't stand it anymore and finally couldn't help but slam the table to interrupt.

"That's enough, Eleven! You're not here to invite a thousand-year-old man to join your list of perverted strippers."

"..."

Clef said nothing, just smiled.

Damn, maybe this pervert would be more to the old woman's taste?!

12 raised his thick eyebrows nervously, and then gritted his teeth twice as hard the next second.

"Who sent you here? 13? Damn it, we should have had Red Right Hand unplug that stupid AI's power supply when we were setting up the shielding net...!"

"12, please be careful with your words. The Red Right Hand is not your personal army..."

Clef raised a finger at Eleven, signaling him to behave properly.

"It's not uncommon in Foundation history for two Red Right Hands affiliated with different O5s to engage in conflict."

Only a silent young woman in a suit, always in the dim light, adjusted her monocle to remind Clef.

"Oh, yes, that civil war with the Chaos Insurgency was indeed the darkest time since the founding of the Foundation..."

Clef seemed to come back to his senses, a hint of sadness on his face, before he nodded gratefully. "Thank you! 10, thank you for your advice!"

"Civil war? That's called defection!"

There was another loud noise in the already small conference room.

Still at 12, the black man's giant hand uncontrollably slammed down on the conference table in front of him again. Everyone present could vaguely see tiny cracks appearing on the alloy table that could withstand 2 tons of gravity!

However, no O5 expressed surprise. The air was silent for two seconds before 10 spoke again slowly.

"You can't deny everything your ex did just because he left, 11."

"That's enough! Keep looking through your damn files, woman!"

12 exhaled deeply, but his emotions gradually calmed down. "Don't think you know everything just because you've read a few more files... I'm just defending the purity of the Foundation before you cowards dare to stand up."

"Purity? 11, you'd better not hurt your hands and go count the money in the major banks..."

Clef spoke with a hint of concern, "Trillions of dollars in cash are flowing through your hands. I don't want our Foundation's best accountant to get tendonitis from slamming his hands on a table. That would be tragic."

"Ah……"

12 glanced at the darkness around him, but ultimately put on his smoky goggles that he had placed on the table.

He ignored Clef's provocation, and his expression seemed to have returned to that calmness that was accurate to the second through some supernatural power.

"oh oh?"

Grumpy chimpanzee toy gone?

Noticing this, Clef couldn't help but whistle, but just as he was looking for the next target to tease.

O5-10, the beautiful woman sighed.

"Sigh... 11, you know everyone hates each other, so why did you come here?"
