Chapter 5859: Go Back and Don’t Go to the Research Institute Anymore

Also seeing the flames soaring into the sky was the black Maybach that had just left the dock and not driven far. The Maybach made an emergency stop on the side of the road.

The car window rolled down, revealing the profile of the old man sitting in the car.

His thick and gray eyebrows were like two sharp swords, raised slightly, revealing an undoubted coldness. Those eyes are sunk deep in the eye sockets, like a deep and bottomless pool. There is a sharp edge hidden in the calmness, as if it can penetrate the soul of a person with just a glance, making people dare not have the slightest thought. Concealment and making mistakes.

The driver quickly got out of the car and looked back, looking up at the fire not far away, and reported to him extremely nervously: "Shilao, it seems there is a fire in the direction of the pier."

"In the direction of the pier..." The old man rubbed the top of the crutch with his palm, and the cold and hard part of the obsidian smacked with a dense pain in his palm.

His lips were pursed tightly, the corners of his mouth were slightly lowered, and he gave the order calmly as if he was not aware of the pain: "Go back!"

"Yes, Shi Lao." The driver didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly went back to get in the car. When he turned around, he carefully looked through the rearview mirror and whispered: "Shi Lao, over there at the research institute..."

The old man had already taken out his mobile phone and made a call when he got in the car.

"...Go and check if there are any abnormalities in the research institute, especially the first laboratory. If you find anyone making any unusual movements, I allow you to kill them on the spot." The driver only heard the old man's low tone coming from the back row, his majesty was like substance, and he was suppressed. One can't breathe.

"Even Lance...I give you this power!" The driver waited for him to hang up the phone, then drove straight away, not daring to speak anymore. Unbeknownst to others, as Theron's trusted driver, he knew very well the identity of the mysterious Earl of Reims, who was actually the grandson of the Ten Elders.

If Mr. Ye did something in the research institute, Shi Lao actually meant to kill him on the spot without even leaving a chance to explain.

While the driver held his breath, his heart was shaken deeply. He had always known that Theron was ruthless, but he thought that Theron had spared no effort to suppress the eldest lady over the years because the eldest lady had done something wrong that could not be undone. But he didn't expect Theron to be so cruel to his grandson. That Young Master Ye... was not involved in what happened that year. Was Theron just venting his anger?

Others spoke softly and did not dare to ask the old man in the back seat whether he had angered Count de Reims over what had happened that year. They just drove silently, praying that the Count of Reims did not do anything at the research institute...

People from all directions rushed towards the dock, and the atmosphere in the dock was tense.

"search!"

"Find someone quickly."

"Everyone is waiting for inspection!"

"Whoever dares to move will be killed on the spot!"

Qiao Nian saw the mercenaries from the Sixth Continent blocking all the entrances and exits of the dock. The incandescent lights on the lighthouse lit up, illuminating every corner of the place. The red and green lights from above the dock were intertwined and covered every place.

She knew exactly what these meant.

Qiao Nian pulled up the stand-up collar of her windbreaker and quickly blended into the crowd. After dodging a few checkpoints, she took advantage of the crowds and chaos to sneak into the high-rise lighthouse quietly.

Compared to the chaotic crowd on the pier, the inside of the lighthouse is like two worlds. Darkness pours into the stairs like a tide, and the only small lamp lingers in the corner, emitting a weak, swaying light.

The dim yellow halo can only illuminate a small area around it, and the rest of the corners are hidden in deep darkness.
