In the headset, Researcher Song was sharing an update with Wu Jin, “Brother Wei has already sent news back to us. The upper zone isn’t heavily fortified, and there’s only one line of defense consisting of light weaponry at the entrance. It’s not a big problem.”

“Blood samples. The blood sample comparison was a success.”

“Congratulations, we’ve found the right place.”

Wu Jin breathed a sigh of relief.

It was like having a long, complicated journey come to an end. The reagent that they’d s.n.a.t.c.hed up from the top of the castle was an exact match to the part of Wu Jin’s blood that served as the ‘master key’ for the emotional lock.

Wu Jin was finally no longer the only ‘key’ for the emotional lock.

Nothing else could be heard from Researcher Song’s side.

Researcher Song, who’d served as a technician at the Federal R-Code Base before transferring to Floating City’s Research Inst.i.tute, rushed along the empty corridors on the top floor of the castle.

When sounds could be heard over the headset again, it was the big boss’s voice.

“Come up.” The man’s voice was steady and low.

The upper zone had been cleaned up, and the whole area was now safe.

The corners of Wu Jin’s mouth curved up.

Just as he was about to go upstairs, he was taken aback by the huge golden cage that was pushed to a stop beside him. Wu Jin opened his mouth wide, then remembered that this was the last item he’d purchased. A cage of this size, had he won an auction for a mammoth––

The cloth that shrouded the cage was pulled off.

A cat-eared genetically modified youth pawed pitifully at the bars of the cage.

Wu Jin: “!!!”

The youth looked up to reveal a pair of strange pupils in eyes that were filled with reluctance. When he saw Wu Jin, he respectfully handed over his own control lock chip from within the cage.

Wu Jin was scared by this little wild cat and retreated a few steps. He quickly put together a sashimi salad from the food table and sent it to the cage. When Wu Jin stretched out his hand, the cat-eared youth seemed to smell the same scent of a genetically modified person and showed an almost incredulous expression before soon falling into a daze.

Wu Jin cautiously walked away from the cage holding the genetically modified youth and followed the route the big boss took, quickly making his way upstairs.

The steps leading to the upper area curved in a steep spiral.

The so-called &#k2018;upper zone’ only covered the top two or three floors of the castle. After arriving at the corridor, Wu Jin happened to run into another group of people.

The captain of Floating City’s bodyguard team gently curved his eyes when he saw Wu Jin. Behind him, the door leading to the &#k2018;master of the castle’ was half open, and shrieks and whimpering could be heard from within.

All the surveillance recordings had been replaced ahead of time.

Wu Jin walked in through the door.

The two castle masters had their hands tied behind their backs, and a group of guards were listening to Wei Shi’s commands.

On all four sides of the room, there were numerous ‘experimental subjects’ on display.

There were half dissected black cats, unknown deformed creatures whose nerves were still twitching, and dead genetically modified human subjects. They were like badges of merit for the masters of the castle, and also like tombstones that silently surrounded them.

One of the castle masters spoke around a dry mouth and tried to explain, “Sir, these are the results from generations of research. Please show it the respect it deserves…”

Wei Shi turned around and looked at Wu Jin.

“Let’s go.”

Researcher Song nodded and swiftly took over.

One master of the castle was still trying tirelessly to stand up for himself, “Sir, wait, sir, our client list includes nine Federal military officers, a former R-Code Base member, an Imperial d.u.c.h.ess, and even an Imperial Prince… We demand justice. Science itself isn’t wrong. Please acknowledge our demands. We can do things for you…”

“You can’t treat us so violently! We’re still under the d.u.c.h.ess’s patronage…”

Researcher Song waved, “It’s fine, it’s fine! Little Witch, go out and play!”

The other master of the castle remained silent.

It was just that at this time, he was staring fixedly at Wu Jin.

At the moment when Wu Jin was about to leave, he suddenly opened his mouth and spoke up, “Scabbard.”

Wu Jin paused.

The man then began to shout hysterically, “I know you, you’re Wu Jín’s clone! I was involved in the research, and I know I’m not wrong about this. Please wait a minute! If you’re willing to disclose your ident.i.ty as a successful scabbard product, the Federation, the Empire, and countless genetically modified people would all do your bidding.”

“Scabbards are far scarcer than the swords. In our initial design plan, the genetically modified humanoid weapons and the scabbards were like the zerg and the zerg queen. You can do whatever you want to do…”

Wei Shi narrowed his eyes, and his cold aura flared out, pressuring the other party. His long legs kicked over the table and aimed straight at the researcher.

The man was kicked to the ground and lay down against the fallen chair. He was in pain and filled with fear as he gasped for breath. Wu Jin quickly pulled the big boss outside, “Let Brother Song and the others deal with it… let’s go let’s go let’s go let’s go…”

Researcher Song was really afraid that Wu Jin would kill the suspect on the spot and hurriedly shot Wu Jin a look before closing the door behind them.

Wu Jin dragged the big boss with him all the way to the top of the building.

The evening breeze floated in gently from the upper level balcony.

Wu Jin puffed up his cheeks, continued to puff up his cheeks, and then wailed and burst out laughing, “Zerg queen hahahahahahahahahahahahaha-hic!”

Wei Shi was expressionless as he pinched the small round face.

The sky was full of stars, and the entire castle seemed like it had been put behind them.

Wu Jin breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked sideways at the big boss.

At the foot of the castle, the master of the castle was still shouting loud enough to shake the ceiling. After that came the corpses of countless genetically modified people and animals, piled up into a high mountain at the base of the castle.

It was all over.

Researcher Song was only responsible for prying out the seed technology for the reagent formula and cracking the emotional lock.

After that, the perpetrators would be taken back to Floating City, where countless genetically modified people were waiting for justice.

n.o.body cared about the reasons and demands of these people who had caused so much suffering. They had come from Floating City just to put an end to ‘R-Code’.

The leopard cat snuck in through a crack in the door, with the little black cat that Wei Shi had suddenly named as its ‘little brother’ held in its mouth.

The little black cat was caught by the fur on the nape of its neck and was so frightened that it didn’t dare move at all.

The leopard cat rubbed against Wu Jin and Wei Shi’s feet, and when it saw that n.o.body was paying attention to it, it carried the little black cat away and ran off.

It was getting dark outside.

Wu Jin: “Should we go downstairs?”

Wei Shi nodded. The two of them went along the main entrance back to the middle zone. The banquet was still busy, the guests unaware of what had happened upstairs.

Wu Jin stretched.

Wei Shi glanced over as the boy group lead dancer stretched himself, just like a dumpling skin that had kneaded itself, his actions especially flexible.

After Wu Jin finished stretching, he blinked wide eyes at the big boss, “Brother Wei, are we going back to Floating City tomorrow, or are we… um… going to play for a few days.”

Wei Shi’s reply was concise, “Play.”

Wu Jin was instantly in high spirits, pulling the big boss along behind him to go back to their room to rest and recover their energy for tomorrow, “Okay. In that case we’ll go straight to the star ship tomorrow morning to watch the Stardust Cup…”

At the dinner banquet, a group of n.o.bles looked on in awe as this extremely wealthy young master and his bodyguard left the scene.

Once they left the area, the people at banquet suddenly grew excited––

They began to speculate one after another about the wonderful scenes that might play out.

“He and that bodyguard…”

“That little wild cat isn’t easy to tame…”

“Interesting. Three people together…”

Wu Jin was very happy as he took out the room card. There was a beep, and the door to the suite opened up.

A message had been sent to his terminal notifying him that the modified animals purchased at the auction had been placed with Wu Jin’s luggage and could be checked into the star ship at any time, with the exception of item #1 and item #14––

The door was pushed open.

On the other side of the door, the sound of the TV could be heard.

The genetically modified wild cat youth with cat ears on his head who’d just finished showering had a towel wrapped around his lower body as he watched a butchering scene on a program broadcast on the agricultural channel. He turned calmly towards the door.

Three pairs of eyes looked at each other.

Wu Jin: “……”

The cat-eared youth, “Master.”

Wei Shi: “Heh.”

Juurensha: ….uhhhhh, well….let’s hope we can find cat-boy a nice home?

xiin: 3p3p3p3p3p… nah. that would be letting the cat-boy take too much advantage of my ML and MC <3
