The Leaker

Zhang Xuezhou had heard about going abroad for technical exchanges.

What appears to be a normal technical exchange to outsiders is actually a gamble on talent, with researchers involved in the relevant technologies constantly exchanging positions.

If we were to find any benefit in this exchange, it would undoubtedly be that it promoted the exchange of science and technology worldwide.

But that's all there is to it.

For countries that contribute talent, research that they invest heavily in has been snatched away by rivals through disputes.

Some researchers, with unwavering integrity, were ultimately imprisoned in foreign lands and met a tragic end, while others sought the fastest way to escape trouble, handing over what needed to be done before returning home.

There are different ways to handle these situations, and none of them are wrong. The former involves keeping secrets, while the latter may lead to researchers contributing more advanced technologies in the future.

The top- Sequence Holder of the Changkong Lineage suffered severe losses in this conflict, and the Luo Household was undoubtedly one of the payers of the price, even a very important one.

There aren't many top-tier laboratories in Western Capital City. If Zhou Yueyan's laboratory is ranked at the top, Professor Luo Hui's laboratory is capable of ranking in the top five.

The high-end venues of the Scarlet Alliance State are by no means conspicuous, and even lack strict security; they are shrouded in mystery.

In this situation, it is difficult for outsiders to find out the location of the laboratory, even more difficult to obtain a list of the laboratory's researchers, and further details about which researcher specializes in which research would be classified.

It is unlikely that foreign countries will be able to obtain a list of researchers with this qualification.

"Someone betrayed us!"

Zuo Teng left a message in ' The Scion's Back Garden ', and then stopped typing.

"Can we find that person?"

Luo Gaogao sent two questions in quick succession, but Zuo Teng did not reply.

This left Luo Gaogao somewhat disappointed.

Luo Gaogao had to admit that although his IQ was not low, his advantages were not reflected in interpersonal relationships, investigations, and other areas.

The chances of him achieving this goal are virtually zero.

The most difficult thing is not the thinking and judgment in this incident, but that the direction of the investigation does not involve ordinary people, nor these spoiled rich kids, but may involve certain high-ranking and powerful people.

Once the other side discovers their secrets, people of their level will be unable to withstand retaliation.

Among the people Luo Gaogao knows, only Zuo Teng has a relatively low probability of being able to trick the other party.

However, Zuo Teng did not respond, which indicates that the matter was not only extremely risky for Zuo Teng, but also extremely low-rewarding.

This made Luo Gaogao take a deep breath.

He looked at the cargo ship's interior and thought about the several strange beasts he had hunted. All joy vanished, replaced by a sense of powerlessness.

"Grandpa, can you find the person who leaked the information?"

He sent the message again via satellite communication, but Professor Luo Hui did not respond.

When Luo Tianming was escorted to the Twilight Years Mansion, the Luo Household clearly began to act more cautiously, and Luo Burang's (Luo Gaogao's father) overseas exchange program seemed to be targeted, forcing Professor Luo Hui to begin filling in the gaps in his knowledge.

"Be safe!"

Luo Gaogao waited for a long time, but instead of receiving Professor Luo Hui's agreement or announcement, he received a word of advice.

This made Luo Gaogao's mind tighten suddenly. Images of many people in Western Capital City flashed through his mind. He felt that everyone in his mind was a suspect, and he was likely to encounter malice from each of them.

When Luo Gaogao turned his gaze to the Western Capital City, he saw a group of vicious wolf Lineage. These Lineage were relentlessly attacking or opposing Western Capital City, but at the same time, they wanted to become a member of Western Capital City.

As Luo Gaogao continued to ponder, he felt his mind becoming increasingly confused.

He felt that everyone was a suspect, including his staff and members of his team.

Unless he returns to Professor Luo Hui and the others, there is no one he can trust.

"That's how I feel, and I'm afraid Grandpa and the others feel the same way!"

External threats are not so scary; we can unite to overcome them. But internal threats are truly frightening.

Perhaps those you know well are the betrayers, or perhaps those close to you will stab you in the back. No matter what the possibility is, it is impossible to guard against, and you may even face continuous targeting until the Luo Household is completely out of the game.

The events of his later years, the conflicts inside and outside Western Capital City, the existence of new and old factions in the Scarlet Alliance State, and the presence of stubborn factions further complicate matters.

If everything were open and honest, that would be fine. Luo Gaogao sensed that the Luo Household seemed to be hiding something, or perhaps researching some secret matters.

"Did Grandpa and the others do something wrong that led to them being targeted?"

"Does our family belong to the villains?"

Luo Gaogao undoubtedly prides himself on his noble lineage and righteousness, but a shadow of doubt also lingers in his heart.

If the Luo Household Lineage was the one secretly causing trouble, and was subsequently targeted, this is not impossible.

He glanced at the communicator, but ultimately didn't have the courage to send a satellite message to inquire.

Regardless of whether Professor Luo Hui is willing to answer, if they are being targeted, their communication methods are also fraught with risks, and there is a possibility that they may be being monitored.

"Only satellites under our own control can be used for safe conversations, and only communication devices manufactured in our own country can be used to boldly discuss such highly private topics!"

The prevailing opinion in Western Capital City is that as long as the advantage in gene technology is maintained and strong external capabilities are maintained, other research projects can be slowed down, or even resolved through trade.

The telecommunications industry is undoubtedly a conventional sector in the development of the Scarlet Alliance State, which not only purchases communication satellites from abroad but also asks other countries for help in launching satellites.

Western Capital City believed that highly private matters would not be handled on communicators, while monitoring less private matters was unnecessary.

Luo Gaogao, on the other hand, is currently experiencing a genuine need for it.

"The Jiang Household ranks relatively low in Western Capital City, but they happen to be in charge of the satellite communications industry. I'll go back and see if I can persuade Grandpa to increase his investment and seek some special privileges in communications!"

It's fine normally, but the feeling of being stuck at a crucial moment is extremely uncomfortable.

Luo Gaogao pondered for a while, then chose another location.

Jiang Feng, the second-generation patriarch of the Jiang Household, was also on the large ship they were all traveling together to leave Qinmeng.

Luo Gaogao looked at her own tall figure, then thought about the other person's thick and round body, and even considered the pointing and whispering they would encounter when they met. In the end, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to find him.

Jiang Feng hasn't yet touched the core of the Jiang Household's power, but he can undoubtedly learn some communications from Jiang Feng that he wouldn't normally pay attention to. This will be helpful in persuading Professor Luo Hui after returning to Western Capital City.

At this moment, Luo Gaogao didn't care about everyone jokingly calling Jiang Feng and him the fat and thin monks. After figuring out the location of the cabin, he bowed and knocked on the door.

Seconds later, the door to the private lounge was opened.

Luo Gaogao peeked inside and saw three women, whose figures were more robust than those of an average strong man, staring at him with wide eyes.

"Hello, sisters!"

Luo Gaogao barely opened his mouth and looked at the key members of the winning team from the previous Sequencing Grand Gathering.

He greeted her, which made the woman in the middle stand up excitedly.

"I knew a woman as outstanding as us would have suitors! Little brother, you really have good taste, knowing to take the initiative and come to us!"

The woman swung her arms, the bulging muscles twitching as if about to explode.

Luo Gaogao made a gurgling sound involuntarily. Before he could even swallow his saliva, the woman reached out her large hand and pulled him inside.
