Chapter 792 - 303: Forgot to Tell You, We’re Broadcasting Live Worldwide (6,000 Words)

Miss Su believed Mondez had already let her go, and only then did she truly feel relieved.

She packed her things, took her bag, and took the elevator down to the basement level. She lived in the Eastern Alliance dormitory building, not too far away, so a motorcycle was enough for transportation.

There weren’t many people in the motorcycle parking area. Miss Su rode her motorcycle towards the exit and suddenly felt a chill on her neck.

Ahead was a big turn. Due to a blind spot in vision, a mirror was installed on the load-bearing column at the turn. Miss Su curiously looked up at the mirror and saw a shadow sitting behind her!

It was a human-shaped shadow, closely sticking to Miss Su’s back.

Its hands were sliding down Miss Su’s arms, and suddenly it pressed down on the back of her hand, taking away her control of the motorcycle handlebars.

Miss Su wanted to resist, but the more she fought back, the stronger the shadow’s power became, even merging with her flesh and completely seizing control of her body.

Despair filled Miss Su’s heart.

Vroom!

The motorcycle suddenly accelerated to its maximum speed.

With a loud ’boom,’ the motorcycle crashed straight into the wall opposite the bend.

The massive impact threw Miss Su flying, and when she landed, her head was separated from her body.

The shadow slipped into the ground with the motorcycle and vanished quickly.

When not on business trips, Ying Chenzhou always ate dinner at the Alliance Building before going home. This habit was born from his childhood in the slums, where he often faced hunger.

Even for employees at the Alliance Building, there was no staple food at night, only a nutrient and two potatoes.

The Eastern Alliance’s annual food imports were very limited. To alleviate the food shortage, technology had to be used to produce food.

After hundreds of years of research, the Eastern Alliance could now use controlled nuclear fusion technology to convert solar energy into electrical energy, and by the principle of electrolysis for hydrogen production, scientifically convert carbon dioxide and hydrogen gas into artificial starch.

This artificial starch became the main ingredient in the nutrient. Although it provided nutrition, its taste was truly awful.

Therefore, even boiled potatoes were more delicious than the nutrient.

Ying Chenzhou was particularly fond of eating potatoes.

Halfway through his meal, he saw the head of the Investigation Bureau, Adonis, walking over with a tray.

After Adonis sat down, he placed one of his small potatoes onto Ying Chenzhou’s plate: "I’ll share a potato with you. Next time we get sweet potatoes, you can give me half."

Adonis didn’t like eating potatoes; he preferred the slightly sweet taste of sweet potatoes.

But sweet potatoes weren’t often available.

Overall, Adonis would lose out in a trade of potatoes for half a sweet potato.

Ying Chenzhou stared at the potato for a moment and did not refuse.

In the entire Alliance Building, he only accepted goodwill from Adonis.

Ying Chenzhou quickly finished the nutrient, picked up a potato, peeled it, and just took a bite when he heard Adonis say: "There’s been a death in the basement. It was Su Qin, a receptionist at the police headquarters."

Adonis’ superpower was his extraordinary memory, which helped him become the head of the Investigation Bureau. Adonis’ brain was like a computer, capable of infinitely replaying and retrieving any recalled detail.

Anything he had seen or encountered, he would never forget.

While computers could become overloaded and require memory clearing, Adonis’ memory capacity was limitless.

Adonis could remember the identity of every person in the Alliance Building.

Ying Chenzhou thought for a moment before saying, "I vaguely remember." The last time he returned from Beiwang Cape, when he brought the convicted death row prisoners to see Mondez at the police headquarters, he had seen that receptionist.

So young, how did she die?

"How did she die?" Ying Chenzhou asked casually.

"They say it was speeding. Her motorcycle crashed into the wall opposite the turn, a very gruesome death. Her head and body went separate ways," Adonis said with some regret. "She was still very young, had just started working at the Alliance Headquarters and recently became permanent."

After numerous assessments and screenings, she had just joined the Eastern Alliance and was gone just like that.

Ying Chenzhou did not have Adonis’ sensitivity. He was accustomed to life and death. Though he also felt regret for the passing of a life, he was not saddened or grief-stricken.

Adonis suddenly lowered his voice and said: "Su Qin’s superpower was speed." Speed superpower users, they were the ones who raced against time, natural-born masters of evasion.
