Chapter 1188 Memory Replication?
Little Four was elated when he sensed Ling Lan"s thoughts. Sob, Boss finally remembered him.
After a while, the two of them came to Li Shiyu"s laboratory. It was the most highly guarded laboratory in Base Nebula.
Li Shiyu"s laboratory was like Lingtian"s treasure chest. All the amazing agents were kept here. Even without Ling Lan"s order, the team leaders would send their subordinates to guard this area. If someone managed to steal from the laboratory, all the team leaders could commit suicide out of shame and anger.
Ling Lan and Li Lanfeng pa.s.sed through many rounds of inspection before arriving at the laboratory.
Li Shiyu was the only person in the laboratory. The current matter he was handling was linked to the sensitive subject of live human experiments, so Li Shiyu couldn"t let anyone else take part in it.
Li Shiyu heard the sound of footsteps coming towards his laboratory so he quickly stepped away from his experiments and got out of his laboratory to see who the visitors were. When he saw Ling Lan and Li Lanfeng, he nodded his head and lead them in his laboratory. He walked to the body lying on white desk. He grabbed the clipboard on the side, observed the data on the clipboard and compared it with the information the device was showing him.
Ling Lan walked to Li Shiyu and asked softly, “How"s his condition?”.
“He was agitated when he came in but after a bottle of anesthesia, he became silent, just like Little White.” Li Shiyu joked.
“How is Little White? Is it awake?” Ling Lan finally remembered her stupid pet.
volution is taking a long time. I don"t know what he ate. Why is he taking so long to digest it?” When Little White wasn"t following Li Lanfeng, it would spend its time at the laboratory being examined by Li Shiyu. Hence, Li Shiyu concluded Little White"s evolution depended on the things it ate. What a lucky life. All it needed to become powerful was to eat.
“It has an indestructible stomach. It wouldn"t get indigestion.” Ling Lan wasn"t worried. Little White said that its stomach was a different pocket s.p.a.ce so indigestion wouldn"t harm it. The food might just be thrown into a corner of the s.p.a.ce.
“What did you find out about Tao Xiaotao?” Ling Lan"s attention came back to Tao Xiaotao.
“Besides certain cells that are more active than normal, everything is normal.” Li Shiyu frowned. He inspected the body for many hours but no anomaly was found.
“But the ability he used is Shadow Link.” Ling Lan frowned too. If there was nothing wrong with Tao Xiaotao, how could he become an imperial hacker at such a young age? Little Four said Tao Xiaotao"s ability was the same as Shadow King. If it was a different person, there would be a difference in the application of the ability.
Ling Lan would suspect anyone if they said the claim but she wouldn"t suspect Little Four. If he said Tao Xiaotao was Shadow King, he was.
“There is only one possibility. Memory replication.” Li Shiyu suggested a proposition by the medical world many years ago.
“It was proved that it was a wild fantasy, right?” There were experiments done to determine the relevance of this proposition, but all the experiments ended in a failure. Little Four wasn"t interested in this so he hadn"t dug deeper into the subject.
“My mentor told me that the experiments had failed but some people were unwilling to give up. After the Federation forbade this experiment, these people went into hiding. They might have achieved some results of years of research,” Li Shiyu replied.
“Memory replication?” Ling Lan remembered Gu Zhengrong who had the ability to replicate her father"s innate talent. She sensed the similarity between them.
‘It"s the people from Planet Azure. Are they targeting me?" Ling Lan was sure that the a.s.sa.s.sination and the mission she took were all linked.
‘Who are the ones trying to harm the Ling family? What is their motive?"
“I don"t think that they belong to the same faction. The people that attacked you and the faction which Tao Xiaotao belonged to might just be working together.” Li Lanfeng interrupted Ling Lan"s thoughts.
“Oh?” Ling Lan raised her eyebrows and waited for Li Lanfeng"s explanation.
“At that time, you were just a child. You haven"t displayed your talent or potential yet. Unless they were tipped off, they wouldn"t take notice of you. Also, based on the ability of the organisation on Planet Azure, you won"t be able to escape if they were the ones attempting to kill you.” Li Lanfeng pointed out the truth. What they discovered on Planet Azure was just the tip of the iceberg.
“That"s true. Based on my a.n.a.lysis, it should be my father"s enemy in the military. He used his power in the military but he concealed himself perfectly so no clues were found.”
Thinking about it now, it must be a general from the military. This person had control over hackers so he was able to discover the existence of Little Four. However, Little Four had matured now, he would fall into such single schemes anymore.
“Actually, we already knew that without help from someone in the military, this person wouldn"t be able to evade the surveillance of the military and build such a base on Planet Azure. However, no matter how powerful a general is, he couldn"t control such a huge organization. Even the three great marshals don"t have this ability.”
Li Lanfeng smiled as he continued, “We should be glad that the military forbids elite families to gain more power. It prevents generals from shaking the foundation of the military. Thus, the general and the organisation probably belong to different factions. There is a higher probability that they are just working together. Of course, the general might pull the organisation into his wing but in that case, the general will only be a subordinate and not the commander.”
“Yes. It"s impossible for a general to control such a huge organisation. It"s probably a collaborative effort. The general might also just be a subordinate and not the mastermind.” Ling Lan frowned. She knew that her father had already found the person who tried to a.s.sa.s.sinate her. Would he offend the unknown organisation because of this?
How messy!
Ling Lan felt a little dizzy. She closed her eyes and arranged the information in her head. After she opened her eyes, she could feel her thoughts getting clearer
“It has been such a long time but only a hacker was sent to follow Ling Yi. This might mean that the faction doesn"t want to anger my father. Based on that, a collaboration is most likely the answer.” Ling Lan arrived at a conclusion.
As expected, Li Lanfeng was best at scheming. He managed to find the truth almost immediately. In the future, Ling Lan decided to pa.s.s such matters to Li Lanfeng. She knew her weakness was in scheming. Plus, she shouldn"t waste Li Lanfeng"s talent.
