Chapter 1508 Tailless Monkey’s Whereabouts
Gao Chuang told Meng Chao that the research and development of gene reagents and spirit martial arts had its own unique characteristics.
Since the humans’ constitutions could not be centralized, entry-level common goods were still acceptable. The labor dispatch company could find a large number of people to test drugs at any time.
However, many powerful mid-level to high-level superhumans had the need to tailor a gene reagent or spirit martial arts for their own circumstances.
For example, if a mid-level or high-level superhuman, who had suffered some kind of injury and damaged a certain spirit meridian, wanted to know how he would react to a certain high-level gene potion, he would have to find a drug tester who had also damaged his spirit meridian.
What if a young master from one of the nine great cultivation families wanted to advance rapidly in an extremely short period of time, try combining seven or eight extremely overbearing gene potions and unapproved cultivation equipment, and draw up a comprehensive cultivation plan? However, he was not sure how high the probability of spirit energy deviation would be if he did so. If that happened, how would he treat it?
In that case, he would also find a few poor kids who were of similar age, stature, and cultivation path as his substitutes to try out the effectiveness and danger of the comprehensive cultivation plan.
Sometimes, when the demand came in a hurry, regular labor dispatch companies might not be able to provide it.
Other times, customers did not want anyone to know the content and progress of their R & D projects.
At this time, brokers like Tailless Monkey, who had a wide network of friends, could be of great use.
Through the black market, Gao Chuang got to know a large group of rich and powerful young masters and grasped the demand side.
Tailless Monkey got to know a large number of poor boys who did not have the money to buy rare resources and had super companies tailor-make training plans for them. However, they were ambitious and eager to make a name for themselves. This was the supply side.
When the two colluded, the matter was settled.
“I see.”
Meng Chao seemed to be deep in thought. “Then, what did this Tailless Monkey do to provoke you?”
“That kid is dishonest.”
Gao Chuang angrily said, “In this line of work, there are a lot of variables. The risks are very high, and we have to pay attention to confidentiality. It is impossible to make every clause very clear in the contract in the first place. We have to rely on each other’s credibility.
“I’ve been working hard for so long, and it took me a lot of effort to build up some connections and credibility in the circle. Last time, I received a big order. A client asked for three test-takers who had reached the peak of the Earth realm. However, because the spiritual vein was corroded by the venom of a monster, his cultivation dropped drastically, and he returned to the one-star spirit pattern realm.
“Because the client had very strict requirements on the corroded spiritual vein and the species of the poisonous monsters, it was not easy to find such test-takers in a short time. Therefore, the client offered an extremely high price.
“I handed this list to Tailless Monkey for him to be in charge of it.
“A few days later, he found three people who met the requirements.
“In the beginning, the customer was very satisfied, and it was very satisfying to pay. I didn’t draw much water either, allowing Tailless Monkey to earn a lot of money. “I didn’t expect that this kid wasn’t honest. Among the three people he found, there was actually only one who met the requirements. The second one forged the type of poison that corroded his body, and the third one was the most exaggerated. It wasn’t that he had fallen from the peak of the Earth realm back to the one-star spirit pattern realm, but that he hadn’t broken through to the two-star spirit transformation realm at all!
“The third test subject was just a small One-star superhuman from the beginning to the end. The so-called wounds that were corroded by the venom were all his painstakingly fabricated trick!
“Using such an imposter to test the medicine, naturally, no matter how hard he tried, he could not obtain the correct data.
“The customer discovered the problem half a month later. By then, the project had already burned through an astronomical amount of research and development funds. Just the direct economic losses alone had reached tens of millions.
“This was not counting the indirect economic losses and the negative impact on the law and public opinion caused by the delay of the project and the death of a drug tester who went mad during the experiment.
“The client was naturally furious when such a scandal broke out.
“He didn’t know who Tailless Monkey was. He only knew that I, Giant-toothed Crocodile, found him. The golden brand that I worked hard to build in the circle was destroyed by this kid. Don’t you think I should settle the score with him?”
“I understand.”
Meng Chao said, “So, you killed him?”
“No, no, no. Although I was mad with anger, I still gave this kid a chance.”
Gao Chuang said, “A week ago, no, nine days ago, yes, nine days ago, I finally pulled this kid out of his doghouse. In the end, he knelt on the ground and cried like a slug, indicating that he was also a victim. He didn’t know that the two drug testing people had faked their own situation. Even the well-equipped and powerful customers couldn’t find any flaws. With his mediocre strength, how could he verify such a tricky poisoning and erosion situation?
“Furthermore, Tailless Monkey said that he has recently hooked up with a powerful and influential figure and is working on a world-shaking project. As long as he is given some time, he will definitely be able to compensate me for my losses. Who knows, he might even be able to help me set up a connection with a truly important figure and receive an even bigger project!”
Meng Chao’s heart skipped a beat.
“Who is the real big shot?”
“I don’t know.”
Gao Chuang shook his head. “He didn’t say, and I didn’t ask. In our line of work, we can’t be too curious. It’s best not to know what we shouldn’t know.”
“Then, you believed him so easily and let him
go?”
“Because he doesn’t seem to be lying.”
Gao Chuang said, “Although Tailless Monkey’s strength is ordinary and he’s only at the bottom of the superhuman circle, an insignificant character, his ability to make friends and make connections isn’t something that ordinary people can compare to.
“That day, I saw that he was excited. Almost every pore on his body was glowing. It didn’t seem like he was bluffing.
“If he was really helping some big shot with his connections, and I took him away and ruined the big shot’s plan, it wouldn’t be worth it.
“Moreover, at that time, I was preparing for today’s grand auction. I didn’t want to cause any complications and be related to a vicious assault case or even a murder case.
“Anyway, this kid’s network was basically locked in the southern part of the city. He couldn’t escape from me.
“Therefore, I gave him an extra week. I thought that when the auction was over, he wouldn’t be able to give me a satisfactory explanation and then deal with him slowly
“What happened after that?”
Meng Chao said, “Did you see Tailless Monkey again after that?”
“After that, it was this morning.”
Gao Chuang said, “My men received news that Tailless Monkey was hiding in a new den. They wanted to find him and deal with him after I was done with the auction.
“Who knew that when my men found his den, he had already been taken away.”
Meng Chao’s pupils constricted. “How did you know that he was taken away?”
“Because there were traces of struggle and struggle left at the scene.”
Gao Chuang explained, “My subordinates aren’t ordinary people. Several of them are monster hunters. They can even distinguish the smallest footprints and crawling traces in the jungle. It’s not difficult for them to reconstruct the crime scene.”
“Do you know who took Tailless Monkey?” Meng Chao pressed.
“I don’t know.”
Gao Chuang said, “Brokering is a high-risk job. Many times, he knows too many things that he shouldn’t know and offended too many people that he can’t afford to offend. Who knows when and who Tailless Monkey offended?”
“Where is his lair?”
“702 Yongsheng Street, Room 316 of Rainbow Apartment.”
“Did you call the police or destroy the scene?”
“Of course not. My men didn’t even touch a speck of dust. Not a single hair or fingerprint was left behind. Of course, they wouldn’t call the police. Otherwise, wouldn’t they be asking for trouble?”
m
“That is to say, 702 Yongsheng Street, Room 316 of Rainbow Apartment is still the same as when Tailless Monkey was captured?”
“Yes.”
Gao Chuang’s words made Meng Chao sink into deep thought.
This morning, no, last night at midnight, the news of the big explosion at the crystal warehouse of the Red Creek Project has been sent back to Dragon City.
Whether it was entrusting Tailless Monkey to find Ai Lei or investigate Shen Yulin, the mysterious informant, he was still a member of the Blood Alliance that was dormant in Dragon City.
Either way, it could happen before dawn.
So, who took the monkey?
Meng Chao was deep in thought.
He suddenly felt a subtle change in the temperature and pressure of the room.
A gust of wind blew against his face.
The office on the top floor of the skyscraper suddenly becomes a dangerous jungle battlefield.
Gao Chuang’s face quickly magnifies in Meng Chao’s field of vision.
When it was magnified on the extremely hideous face, the vibration of every muscle fiber and the spiritual flames that were spurting out of his pores could be clearly seen.
Gao Chuang’s exquisite acting skills had indeed fooled Meng Chao.
The black market boss was honest and gave up on himself. His attitude of answering every question made Meng Chao gradually lower his guard.
At this moment, when Meng Chao’s entire mind was focused on Tailless Monkey, Giant-toothed Crocodile finally revealed his most ferocious, ferocious, and terrifying face.
However, in the face of the absolute difference in strength, such petty tricks were meaningless.
There was no need to think at all. Just based on the instinctive reaction of his nervous system, Meng Chao’s cervical vertebrae slightly bent backward by 21.2 degrees, and he dodged Gao Chuang’s fierce slash toward his eyes.
Then, his left foot bounced up at high speed like a folding knife and hit Gao Chuang’s lower abdomen like a meteor hammer.
Just this kick alone was enough to shatter Gao Chuang’s kidney, causing him an unbearable pain that ordinary people could not bear, and stopping his next attack.
However, the touch that this “kidney strike” gave Meng Chao from the tip of his foot caused him to frown slightly.
No.
The feedback was too light.
Gao Chuang did not throw himself at all.
The direction he really exerted his strength was toward… the French window!
