Chapter 217 Can’t

"It is impossible to hand it over. I don't agree."

The top executives of Roderick's group gathered in a high-end nightclub in the red light district late at night for an emergency meeting in a well-soundproof office.

"The children are innocent and the risk of contacting authorities is too great."

Veronica, who had just finished singing on the nightclub stage, never expected that she would just go backstage to rest and receive such exciting latest news.

When Veronica heard the somewhat unrealistic term superpower, she was just as unbelievable as Roderick.

However, since the information was spoken by the black magician, no matter how absurd it was, Veronica would still believe it.

"Even if we hand it over, it probably won't go smoothly. Don't forget, the general election is about to begin."

"Besides, we can't be sure that the White Knight has evacuated. If the White Knight also appears..."

Peggy sitting next to her mother. Buck also believed that it was not appropriate to contact state officials directly.

Even if they don't have a gang background, they still have to take into account their hidden identities as dark creatures.

"I also think so."

Rodrik agreed with his collaborators.

He turned to look at Annan who was drinking a soda next to him.

"Annan, do you have any other opinions?"

"Matatek's official can't do it, so what about contacting Eureka?"

Annan routinely said whatever came to his mind without thinking at all.

"This is not the same..."

Roderick felt that this idea was even more unreliable.

"Are you serious about contacting another country?"

"I think Eureka must be very interested in the existence of superpowers. No matter how you think about it, the benefits of turning it over must be more than Matatek. Maybe we can immigrate directly for free?"

Annan waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to pay too much attention to his casual thoughts.

"So, if you don't hand it over, do you have to kill them all?"

"...The child is innocent." Veronica pursed her lips.

"You want to say, keep those superpowers and let us take care of them?"

Annan certainly knew that this beautiful woman did not have such thoughts. She just felt that innocent people should not be killed indiscriminately, and she did not want to do anything to young children.

However, those young superpowers are really a huge unstable factor.

"There are too many things we don't know about those superpowers. I'm sure they were created in secret laboratories through some kind of technology that transcends the times, but I don't know anything else."

Those young superpowers may not live long at all. Their bodies may need to make appropriate adjustments every once in a while, or they may need to take certain drugs if they want to survive.

In short, almost nothing is known.

The spiritual information Annan received was neither large nor long, and the things he could know were always limited.

"The reason why I proposed to hand it over to the country is not a joke. If you look at the world, those children really have extremely huge value. I just don't know what is behind Klein Pharmaceuticals, which creates superpowers. People are backing up.”

"There is not much that can be investigated about Klein Pharmaceuticals at the moment..."

Paige. Buck picked up a handwritten document lying on the table.

This is what she quickly investigated after knowing that something a bit outrageous had happened.

"Klein Pharmaceuticals is an international pharmaceutical company. They are found all over the world, but they cannot be considered a large-scale pharmaceutical company. They can only be regarded as second- or third-tier companies. They are not listed anywhere. They are not listed in the capital. By the way, there is indeed the local headquarters of Klein Pharmaceuticals."

"We can only continue to investigate..."

Roderick never imagined that tonight's action to attack the enemy would involve so many messy things.

The existence of superpowers is too unbelievable.

"When the children of superpowers wake up, let's ask them again. I just don't know if they understand their situation."

It can be confirmed that all those with superpowers locked up in the modified containers are safe and sound, and it is estimated that they will be able to wake up naturally in their beds later.

Now, those nine children were secretly controlled in a house in the suburbs. Roderick had sent his men to keep an eye on them at all times. Once the children showed signs of waking up, they would immediately contact them.

As for whether those children would cooperate, Roderick didn't worry.

Even without harming the children, there are many ways to pry open their mouths.

The only difference is that the time required is different.

After previous encounters, Roderick had roughly grasped the strength of those children's power, and he was sure that he could control it appropriately.

Those children are indeed superpowers, but they are still just children after all.

"Is there still no movement from the Coulier Gang?"

Roderick was concerned with another important point now.

That is the case of the messengers who smuggled the children of superpowers from the great northern country of Eureka.

"Counting the time, they should also know that their goods have been taken away. Even if they don't know that it was us, they should take some action, right?"

"No news has been received yet."

Veronica shook her head.

If the Coulier Gang, or to be more precise, the Eero faction really takes action, the phone in the office will ring, or the subordinates may knock on the door and enter.

"The presidential election is approaching, and gangsters everywhere will definitely not act rashly. However, since those bastards chose this time to carry out such a dangerous smuggling operation, they should not give up... But in fact, their actions are a bit too slow. …”

"Maybe it's because they want to avoid leaks and really don't want to make the matter too big. After all, people with super powers..."

Roderick initially didn't quite understand the value of so-called superpowers.

However, with Annan’s reminder, even if you didn’t understand it before, you will now know something about it.

Not to mention the abilities of the superpowers themselves, even the technology used to create superpowers cannot be measured in terms of money.

According to Annan's very confident statement, the so-called superpowers here are indeed created through science and technology that surpasses the times by countless levels.

It does not contain any magic or black magic, it is very pure and superb science and technology.

These era-crossing technologies themselves are full of extremely huge value.

This also means that the children of superpowers are themselves a danger factor.

"After Klein Pharmaceuticals knew that the superpower they had worked so hard to create was missing, it was absolutely impossible for them to do nothing. In addition, there may be sponsors behind this pharmaceutical company..."

Roderick once again deeply realized how bad the bad news Annan had said before was.

"So that's it. Turning it over to the country is indeed a very reasonable and appropriate solution. Unfortunately, we shady guys can't take risks..."
