The "Cargo" in the Warehouse

Daniel Fisher, the legal department head at Global Consolidated Investment, had been making frequent trips to the Chinatown branch lately due to work requirements.

Luo Xia sought him out primarily because their builds and hair colors were similar, making it much easier to disguise himself and infiltrate that nuclear waste disposal company.

Under Luo Xia's threat, Daniel Fisher had no choice but to strip off his clothes and hand over his personal belongings. Before long, having changed into the suit and taken the briefcase, Luo Xia transformed into Daniel Fisher.

"The pants are a bit loose. You're middle-aged now; you should pay more attention to exercise," Luo Xia remarked, patting Daniel Fisher's beer belly.

Fortunately, by tightening the belt, tucking in the shirt, and throwing on the overcoat, it wasn't very noticeable.

Finished with his transformation, Luo Xia opened the car door and stepped out.

"Alright, Daniel. If you cooperate obediently, I will let you leave safely. But if you intend to resist..."

No sooner had Luo Xia finished speaking than two mechanical arms popped out from inside the vehicle, covered in sharp, rapidly spinning drill bits that hovered inches from Daniel Fisher's face.

He had never witnessed such a terrifying scene, and he immediately buried any budding thoughts of escape deep within his mind.

But the shock wasn't over yet. As Luo Xia departed, the black-rimmed glasses on Daniel Fisher's face began displaying a special feed, and a synthesized female voice echoed in his ear: "Daniel Fisher, watch the feed appearing before you. If you see anyone you recognize, provide a prompt warning. If your negligence leads to any issues, you won't have the chance to make another mistake."

"Understood, I will be careful. Please, pull those drills back a bit," Daniel Fisher stammered.

Luo Xia, now disguised as Daniel Fisher, walked toward the nuclear waste disposal company. Everything he saw along the way was transmitted to Daniel Fisher's eyes via the Tactical Goggles.

With Daniel's own guidance, Luo Xia successfully infiltrated the nuclear waste disposal company. Walking through the somewhat dilapidated storefront, he found the staff to be pitifully sparse. The company's entire decor maintained a retro style from the fifties or sixties, and several elderly, decrepit employees were even using typewriters to print documents.

Had the communication from the Tactical Goggles not been active, Luo Xia would have thought he had passed through a time tunnel and arrived decades in the past.

Following Daniel's reminder, Luo Xia didn't show any surprise and headed toward the manager's office door.

As he approached and reached out to knock, Daniel's voice came through his earpiece: "Don't knock. Just open the door and go in."

Luo Xia felt it was a bit strange; wouldn't such rude behavior attract attention? However, he figured Daniel Fisher wouldn't dare deceive him; he didn't look like the type to sacrifice his life for a cause.

Luo Xia grabbed the doorknob and pushed the door open. He had prepared for all sorts of contingencies upon entering, but once he saw the office, he understood what Daniel Fisher meant.

The manager's office contained only a retro desk and an executive chair, with not a soul in sight.

Luo Xia closed the door behind him and quietly asked Daniel Fisher: "What's the situation? Why is the manager's office empty?"

"It's always empty. Every time I come here, I just go straight to the safe to get the seal for the documents. I don't know what's going on, but that's what the company's upper management instructed me to do. The branch manager is away on vacation," Daniel Fisher explained.

Yet, this explanation still felt abnormal. Even if a manager were away, the work should have been delegated to someone else.

Luo Xia didn't intend to dwell on this; he was here to locate the nuclear waste storage transit point to see if he could use the waste to create an Energy Activation Device.

Consequently, Luo Xia opened the safe and took out the seal and transaction documents. While routinely helping Daniel Fisher process the paperwork that needed stamping, he searched for the information he needed.

The search was quick; Luo Xia only needed to flash the documents before his eyes, and the Tactical Goggles recorded all the content, which Violet would then analyze in a thousandth of a second.

After barely ten seconds, Violet spoke to Luo Xia: "Commander, I've found it. There is a warehouse near 6th Street in Hell's Kitchen that has frequent cargo movement. It's near the docks, and it seems the goods are shipped out directly by sea."

Having obtained the information he wanted, Luo Xia restored everything to its original state and quickly left the company.

Everything had gone more smoothly than imagined, without arousing anyone's suspicion. Luo Xia returned to the car and returned all the clothing and items to Daniel Fisher: "I've finished your work. Now, change back into your clothes and act as if nothing happened. That way, you won't have any trouble, and neither will I. But if I run into trouble, you certainly won't be able to stay out of it, understand?"

After dumping Daniel Fisher out of the car, Luo Xia headed straight for the warehouse on 6th Street. As long as he got his hands on the nuclear waste, nothing else mattered.

The area around 6th Street was mostly factories and warehouses, and being near the docks, the flow of people and vehicles was extremely dense. Luo Xia parked at a distance as before, shifted his face to that of an unremarkable passerby, and walked toward the warehouse.

From the outside, the warehouse didn't look particularly special. It covered about three thousand square meters, the main gate was tightly shut, and there was no one in sight guarding it.

Logically, early morning should be the best time for shipping goods, yet the warehouse was eerily quiet.

Luo Xia carefully scanned the surroundings and, instead of using the main entrance, circled around to the side of the building. He activated the Sensor Glove, covering his hand, and hooked it into the outer steel frame to climb.

The Sensor Glove could counteract gravity by adjusting its magnetism, and it could also use magnetism to adhere to steel; Luo Xia relied on this function to scale the steel frame.

Before long, Luo Xia climbed onto the warehouse's corrugated iron roof. Activating the Tactical Goggles' X-ray function, he took in the entire interior of the warehouse.

Luo Xia's original plan was to find the stored nuclear waste and attempt to use the AllSpark's energy to create an Energy Activation Device. However, when he activated the X-ray function and his vision pierced through the thin roof, he saw a scene that made his blood boil.

This wasn't a place for storing nuclear waste at all; inside were dozens of iron cages and shipping containers, and they were all filled with people!
