Is this the exclusive logo of Kangye Company?
She took out the work badge from the drawer, whose name had changed back to Ai Xiang, and held it up to the light, but without any special symbols.
Clearly, this mark would only appear on the factory manager's ID badge.
Su Cheng put Ai Xiang's work badge back in the drawer.
The stench in the air wasn't as intense as it had been at first, but it still made her nasal passages uncomfortable. Su Cheng took out a mask, put it on, stepped over Rong Hao's pile of broken bones, and left the office.
She entered the glass elevator and pressed the button for the second floor.
The second floor houses the pharmaceutical research and development department, which is responsible for collecting data and conducting quality analysis and improvements.
For ease of monitoring, each room is separated by transparent glass, so that the pig-headed man can be seen immediately if he dozes off or loses focus.
The rooms were semi-open, and Su Cheng randomly walked into one.
Unlike when she first arrived at the factory and was ignored, the pig-men in white clothes trembled and all lowered their heads.
They were afraid of her.
Or rather, they feared her identity, not only because of the factory manager's natural Pressure, but also because of one of the rules etched in their minds: they must not resist anything the factory manager does.
Su Cheng glanced at the computers and ordered, "Give me a detailed research report on all the pills."
There was no response; there was complete silence.
Su Cheng frowned slightly. Based on their reaction just now, her words shouldn't have been ineffective.
Did they not know, or did she go to the wrong place?
"Don't you have them in the factory?"
Another silence fell.
"... say."
Finally, a pig-man stepped forward, its human body shrugging in fear, its round ears twitching slightly, and its snout opening wide. "Oink oink oink... Which year, oink oink, which month's oink oink... do you want..."
It finished asking the question with difficulty, and became even more nervous.
They appear to have lost some of their language abilities, and their voices are not produced by the vibrations of human vocal cords, but rather by muffled sounds emanating from their nasal cavities.
Su Cheng made out the indistinct words from the humming, paused, and then said, "From recent years."
A note from the author:
This Differentiation skill was inspired by Tomie! However, in Tomie, each piece of flesh can grow into a main body, while in Chengzi's Differentiation skill is that the main body dies and regenerates by relying on pre-stored limbs.
Chapter 79
Upon receiving clear instructions, the pig-headed man immediately clicked on the computer and printed out the materials Su Cheng needed.
The pig-headed figures in the room all looked like they were being inspected by a leader; they all clenched their hands and huddled in place, afraid to move.
Finally, Su Cheng, the leader, obtained the efficacy reports for the three types of drugs:
Drug Name: Green Tablets
Uses: Enhance memory and strengthen hippocampal activity
Side effects: dizziness, vomiting, drug resistance
Suitable for: People suffering from amnesia or who wish to improve their memory.
Contraindications: Not for use by pregnant women or infants during their developmental stages.

Drug Name: Red Tablets
Uses: Suppressing arbitrary emotions and blocking the function of the neural memory system.
Side effects: weight loss, Perception disturbances, liver damage
Scope of application: Unknown
Contraindications: Not for use by pregnant women or infants during their developmental stages.
Subsequent upgrades to the green and white tablets primarily focused on reducing side effects, while no further research was conducted on the red tablet.
Su Cheng pondered, noting that the applicability of the red tablet was unknown. She looked at the pig-headed people.
Are they the target audience for these red-themed products...?
If the purpose of the Red Tablet is to cause users to lose their memory, thereby achieving better control, then Kangye Company would not invest in upgrading the Red Tablet.
After all, they've already administered medication to control the condition, so how could they possibly worry about whether the patient's body would be damaged by side effects?
Su Cheng put the report into her bag. "Where is the medicine storage warehouse? Take me there."
She pointed to the pig-headed man who had just spoken to her, giving him specific orders to ensure they understood her requests.
I glanced at its employee ID card, Tao Ci.
These pig-headed people varied in size, but their heads were almost identical, unlike human faces which have distinct features.
They're like scaled-down versions of each other; the only difference between them is the name on their name tags.
The medicine warehouse is located in the room at the far end of the second floor, with cardboard boxes stacked in categories taking up most of the space.
Each carton is sealed tightly with tape and labeled with the name and quantity of the medicine. Once the quantity is sufficient, it will be shipped to the designated destination.
"There's nothing else here, you can go back to your work," Su Cheng said casually to Tao Ci.
Tao Ci immediately turned and strode away, as if Su Cheng were someone he wanted to avoid at all costs.
Su Cheng was the only one left in the warehouse. She found the cardboard box containing the red medicine, cut it open with a knife, and revealed neatly arranged bottles of medicine with red lettering inside.
Unscrew the cap; inside the bottle are 50 red pills.
I took a closer sniff; there was no strange smell. Apart from the color, shape Xiao He, it was no different from the white and green tablets.
Su Cheng stuffed the medicine bottle back into the cardboard box, looking at the mountain of drugs, a thought crossed her mind: Would the apartment accept these special medicines?
She seemed to have never heard of a drug like Red Pills, which could block memory function, in the real world.
Even if the medication cannot be taken due to side effects, could the active ingredients be extracted and incorporated into a new product?
The apartments are filled with all sorts of strange and wonderful professions; who knows, some of them might even be involved in extracting active ingredients from drugs for other uses!
Su Cheng thought it was feasible more and more, so she simply put the medicine into her Smart Bag.
Her Smart Bag had plenty of space; although she couldn't take it all, she could easily take most of it.
After a flurry of activity, we took away a total of 800 bottles of the three green tablet series, 600 bottles of the two white tablet series, and 500 bottles of the red tablets.
Su Cheng patted her Smart Bag, calculating the odds, hoping that these medicines would find a generous buyer!
At the same time, she was also prepared for the possibility that no one would want the goods. Since there was no cost involved, if she couldn't sell them, she would have to destroy them, since her apartment couldn't hold them all.
After tidying up, Su Cheng turned and left the warehouse.
Just as I stepped out the door, a loud bang suddenly rang out.
"Bang--"
The entire factory shook violently, and a layer of white dust was shaken off the ceiling.
A red alert flashed before Su Cheng's eyes:
[Factory Manager's Code of Conduct 8: The factory is under attack; please resolve the risk as soon as possible!]
Another loud bang, and the factory shook even more violently. Su Cheng quickly crouched down against the wall to steady herself.
Someone is bombing the factory with weapons from outside?!
Because the factory has no signal and no video surveillance, the factory manager cannot directly identify outsiders unless they enter the factory.
The person on the other end could be an enemy of the pharmaceutical factory, or it could be a foe of Kangye Company.
It's even possible that she was sent by Kangye Company headquarters to deal with her, someone who took office through irregular procedures...
The factory was built very sturdily, with walls and doors made of explosion-proof and corrosion-resistant materials. But it was not a top-tier fortress, and it couldn't withstand repeated bombings for long.
The other party clearly came prepared!
The factory has only one entrance and exit, the main gate. When it was built, it adhered to the principle that "the factory is where the people are, and the factory dies where the people die," so there are no hidden rooms or escape doors.
Because employees can only stay at their workstations day and night, the only way to move between floors is via glass elevators.
The elevator was installed simply to make it easier for the factory manager to move around.
Going out now is definitely not an option; the enemy is simply bombing without caring about the lives of those inside. If she tries to go out, she might be bombed as soon as she shows her face.
We need to find a place to hide first!
"Bang!"
"Clang--"
The factory shook even more violently, and everything placed on the ground tilted in one direction...
The system's voice rang out amidst the chaos:
[bite]
[Triggering the main quest: Falling Leaves Operation. Completing the quest will end the Golden Leaf Pharmaceutical Factory instance.]
The fact that the main quest is triggered at this time is clearly related to this sudden crisis.
Su Cheng looked around, searching for a suitable hiding place. This enclosed factory wouldn't last much longer!
The factory was shaking violently, but the pigs seemed to have lost all Perception of danger. Occasionally they would lose their footing and fall to the ground, but they would quickly get up and return to their posts, repeating what they did every hour of every second.
Ash from the ceiling fell on their faces, their two round, beady eyes dull and lifeless.
Su Cheng frowned, took out a megaphone, and commanded in a deep voice, "Everyone stop what you're doing, quickly squat in a corner or triangular area, and put your hands behind your heads!!"
Instantly, all the pig-headed men froze as if they had been paused.
The rule in the brain is the body's underlying code: Obey all the factory manager's orders! Never disobey the factory manager!
They quickly put down their tools, obeyed commands to find suitable locations, and immediately got up if they fell when the ground shook.
Finally, it started to look like an escape from an impending crisis.
"Boom--"
The floor slab cracked and fell downwards, hitting the machinery on the first floor and making a cracking sound!
The solution inside the machine was forced out and flowed from the crack.
There were no screams, because the animals, fleeing in terror, didn't understand what the factory's collapse meant...
The factory, which had put up a desperate resistance, finally couldn't hold on any longer, and after a flaw appeared, it began to collapse rapidly!
Su Cheng hid under the triangular support of the load-bearing pillar, surrounded by large pieces of broken stone slabs, leaving her only a small, cramped space to curl up.
"Bang bang..."
Heavy objects kept falling, engulfing her.
The narrow triangular area acts like a shelter, dutifully providing shelter for a space.
