Chapter 343 Gray
Feilaisong Forestry Co., Ltd. sounds like a forestry company by name, but in fact it has everything from harvesters, chainsaws to large heavy trucks and other machinery, and it is more like a large-scale equipment production group.
It is a part of the internal industrial chain of a certain large force, and it is Lu Ping'an's familiar "God", a subsidiary group of a branch church of the Daughter of the Forest.
It seems that it does not have the production capacity of "magic medicine" and "special fruit", but those lower-level sellers actually get the goods from them.
".White Gloves? Bag Company? Or, just an internal subordinate department?"
It's hard to say clearly, but Pingan Road is more inclined that this is a new product of another "pharmaceutical company" under it, and it just uses the shipping channel here.
".As for it? They shouldn't be short of money, right? Seeing this gross profit?" Maomao was a little puzzled. In her impression, the companies and influences under the Church of the Gods were richer than each other.
"It's not just a question of income. This is probably a semi-finished new drug that is weaponized and practical. You have to pay risks and compensation to find experimental products yourself. This is not fully covered by downstream channels. There is also the most real first-hand and front-line actual combat. Give back."
Lu Pingan thinks it is normal. He never overestimates the profession and quality of those so-called big companies. In other words, in his eyes, it is a very strange thing to treat big forces and big companies as human beings. There is no bottom line at all, killing each other internally is the norm, trampling the lives of a few people for the sake of profit is nothing.
Contrary to the idea that "big companies are more formal", due to sufficient background, both black and white can go well, and the world's large companies and religious legal persons can even vaguely transcend rules and laws.
As long as there are enough interests, they sometimes go far beyond the limit of normal human imagination, selling some banned drugs, arms, etc., and even the deep darkness is not counted.
Xia Qin was silent, then nodded, affirming Lu Pingan's guess.
This is indeed a routine operation of some "pharmaceutical companies". They take out new drugs in experiments for sale, and even use them to collect "actual combat data".
"What should I do next, Meow? Take the data back?"
Maomao was a little frustrated. Even if she didn't know how to do it, she knew that the special service team and the Bureau of Foreign Affairs had nothing to do with these big companies, especially those under Zhengshen's subordinates.
In a sense, the opponent is also an ally of the "Order Camp", and even the Bureau of Different Administration and the Special Service Team receive large amounts of sponsorship from those big companies every year.
If it turns out to be a cultist or an evil force, it's very simple, just rush up and smash the mess and it's over.
But if it is an "ally"? Then we must consider the results of intensifying conflicts.
"Tsk, it's all rotten to the bone."
Lu Pingan shook his head, this is even more difficult to deal with than the super enterprises in the previous life, at least those enterprises that are only for making money, will not raise private legions and weapons industry chain.
Xia Qin thought for a second, then tore up the batch of documents twice.
"safe trip"
The flat tone and firm eyes said a lot.
"Okay, since you have made up your mind, I know."
Lu Pingan smiled. He was willing to bear the little troubles brought by such a superior.
One day later, a fire broke out at Feilaisong Forestry Co., Ltd., and a factory area and warehouses were engulfed in flames. At a critical moment, it was found that the fire hydrant was locked.
The preliminary estimate of the loss was over ten million, but fortunately the fire occurred at night, and there was no loss of personnel. At least not on the bright side, those creatures in the shadows will naturally disappear.
It is worth mentioning that the storage warehouse of the Golden Apples was completely destroyed in the fire.
The special service team expressed their dissatisfaction with practical actions, and the next step to deal with the aftermath is the Bureau of Different Administration.
And this is a microcosm, a small episode, of the "strike hard" campaign.
There is a reason for the chaos and chaos in the city. Too many dark sides have been swept out this time. Even, several secret service members who have just taken office doubted life and chose psychological treatment.
Most of the troubles, encounters, and crimes are still within the scope of local law and order, but it is inevitable that there will be incidents like the "Golden Apple", which will eventually involve some troublesome forces and organizations.
"...Those bastards are really not human."
"The scum of human trafficking and human experimentation, the bastard who harms the same kind, should have been dragged out for shooting."
Where there is buying and selling, there is a supply chain. These illegal transactions and commodity buying and selling are also born because of "needs", and step by step, we need "experimental products" and "slaves" the most. No, these expensive "commodities" are affordable Yes, naturally not ordinary criminals.
During this process, several subsidiaries of the Church of the Gods suffered inexplicable "terrorist attacks".
At least at this stage, some people's blood and hearts are not cold yet.
The subordinate forces of the Church of the Gods who were attacked also maintained a strange silence, and the loss was swallowed directly. As long as they were not caught on the spot, it was as if nothing happened.
It's not the first time something like this has happened, and it won't be the last.
It's just that Lu Pingan, who returned to his own courtyard, felt a little troublesome looking at the "apples" in the warehouse.
The warehouse was looted by him, and it would be better to steal it than burn it, but it was a bit difficult to deal with it.
It is impossible to sell it, use it? This thing is clearly a pit.
[A07289's dyed and eroded apple: a special magical fruit, which contains a strange will. 】
"...It really doesn't work, let's use it as a fertilizer for other magic plants."
Lu Pingan, who was thinking in this way, took a few coins along the way and gave them to Professor Wen as research materials to see what was going on.
After really coming into contact with these "golden apples", Lu Pingan completely overturned the previous "potion theory".
"These apples are alive and appear to be a fruit."
Lu Ping'an's conjecture, the answer was obtained the next afternoon after sending the research results, which was a bit faster than expected, and Lu Ping'an was also worried whether Professor Wen was perfunctory.
"...This is the professional ability of the parasitic tree, I can't read it wrong."
Well, it turned out to be the same kind as Professor Wen.
Parasitic trees, third-tier gardeners, they can introduce magical plants into the body and coexist with them, making people have certain natural characteristics of magical plants. To put it simply, it is to transform human beings into magical plants.
According to the different parasitic magic plants, the combat ability and special ability are different. Professor Wen's parasitism is a kind of "netted banyan tree", whose roots extend for several kilometers, and his tentacles can reach everywhere.
Such a body can provide him with extremely terrifying perception abilities. At the same time, it is also convenient for him to perceive the outside world as a "tree" and "plant", and even communicate with some magic plants with relatively high intelligence.
He can manage a botanical garden by himself, and because he is satisfied with this profession, he often recommends it to his students. It's just that most of the students haven't planned to be inappropriate.
"...I checked out the human genes in the apple, the human and plant gene combination structure, I can't read it wrong, it's a parasitic tree."
It seems that the gardener of the big company turned himself into an apple and planted these fruits?
"Not necessarily. Their technology is very good. Many places are leading but they don't announce it to the public at all. Maybe it's a cloned product. It's really a limit for a parasitic tree to plant so many. He's exhausted."
"What happens if you eat the fruit?"
"It will be polluted. To be precise, it will be parasitized by the things contained in it. The main part of the parasite is the nerves. It will not erode the brain in the early stage, so it can retain consciousness, and because of the mutation of the nerves, the user will be extremely excited , berserk, no fear of pain, and infinite strength, but it is hard to say how it will develop next, after all, power has a price. Several of our experimental animals died, it may be that the object of fruit parasitism is not Human beings, at least it can control the life and death of the parasite."
Lu Pingan nodded, and then passed the information to Xia Qin.
She looked at it, and could only sigh helplessly.
These messy things can't be dealt with, and the churches of the gods in various places and regions have long become an indelible cancer.
Even if they were looking for someone from the forestry machinery company, they would definitely find no such person. Even if something was really forced out in the end, they would have already run away.
Being able to catch their tails so quickly and directly find the "culprit" is also thanks to the assistance of the steam elves and the local gray forces. Normal reconnaissance, sending out moles, and finding informants, the other party has already run away.
However, this looks like it will still be a headless case.
The times are developing, more and more gods and the existence of their forces are constantly creating new pollution and new things. In fact, since the 1990s, their actions have become more and more active.
Is it because the side that guards order is getting weaker and weaker? Or is it simply that they have become stronger?
But in fact, the former Special Service Team and the Bureau of Foreign Affairs had reached their limits just by handling normal criminal cases, and they were indeed unable to entangle with them to the end.
"Let's go, the case has been reported, let's see how the Bureau handles it. Our three teams will deal with another magic plant weapon first, this time it is a direct-kill weapon and a hypnotic flower. Tsk, look at the quality of the finished product, it might not work , yet another masterpiece of a 'legitimate' pharmaceutical company."
